VVILLiaaiKTIB WAEMEl.: PORTLAXU, OREGON, OCTOB It 19, 1883. Avth. What I Knew About the Jerseys. Having bred tliom on my farm for 15 years, tliink that I havo a right to give an opinion an opinion based upon ac tual facts. In some few circles tlioy are regarded as the pots of fortune, lovely little ornaments for the lawn, giving a siiiull quantity of very rich milk, cream mid butter to those wealthy enough to aIbnl Mich extravagance. They are small wo admit, beautiful wo irrant'; gentle and graceful, they win lov ing care and attention. So gentle are they that the most timid girl can man age them. I havo fifty head of Jersey cows and heifers to-day, and a child is as aae among them as among so many limbs. I never owned and never saw ft vicious cow, steer or heifer of this breed. Fitness for her work is the all and nil of a Jersey cow all the rest is tinsel. The business of Jersey cow is to convert graas nd griiin into butter. She is not bred for the Hhainblcs, to bo cut up and eaten; alio is too valuable as a butter producer for that. Sho mav bo tho rich man's luxury: but far more the poor mans necessity me fanner's best friend. For wo hold that the Jersey is the most profitable of butter eow,. yicldH more butter forhersizoand fowl consumed than any other breed. Few of them weigh more than 800 lbs., and yet it in no uncommon thing for them to make from 300 to 100 pounds in a year, This at ItO centH per pound gives 90 a year for butter. Wo averaged HO cents per pound for our butter. Hor milk being richer than that of any other breed from (i to 7 quarts com monly nroducesu pound of buttor. Wo have less water to manageress timo spent in milking! for wo can pump water eas ier than wo can draw it irom a cow. Her buttor is better in color, firmor in texture, a better flavor and commands a highor price. Then sho comes into profit early, her first calf being dropped when sho is 20 months old or less, and it is not uncom mon for thcho heifors to make from 8 to 10 pounds of golden butter in 7 days. Wo hoar of tho cow for all purposes,; but. she may bo the millenitim cow an yet she is only an idea has not yet drop ped the first calf. In our time tho far mer has to ehoo.-o in a particulai line, to ebooHo'n bleed of animals that will best unit his circumstances, for lioof, or milk, or ohm-o, or butler, and if ho is in inlliirout lie willchonxo accordingly. His choieo will determino his success or fail me. These families aie all distinct and utility will keep Ibein so not a blind reveience for the past. If you want butter there is no cow that will suit you as well hh the Jersey; for she is tho only bleed that has I wen M!i sistently bred for buttor only. She. is tho result of breeding and in-breeding for tins result for hundreds of years. Her very strnetuio shows this, not only in the tendency to anecstml transmission, but her peculiar internal organism. When a. lersey is fattened and butchered they show by tb ' fat'y deposit hownaturo has coino to put all her force into the interior, so that tho butter producing organs are fully supplied with all needful heat and nourishment for this wonderful process. Tho cow needed for the dairy cannot, under any circuni-tances, bo selected for those qualities which will produce fat. To havo tho best beef we must rid mo uiiimal of overv tendency to milk, anil to obtain tho bent beef wo must obviate overv tendency In fatten. These laws are the foundation on which all our various families of thor oughbied cattle have been hunt up. l'ersistent inwhtoun in-breeding is u no ccssity to the greatest hiiccess in tho pro duction of beef or butter. II i chained that SO per cent, of .ler- hv calves mint bo sold for veal. I havo never sold n Jersey calf to tho butchers. Forty eight eales dropped to Lemon Hex the past, year, thirty nine havo lieen heifers. Fin t her, in all my breeding of .leituys two:(llii'ds of the calves hao been heifers, Ho much for so much. I v. rip (hi men who wi-.li to excel at the chili ii, for in it wo find pleasilie and piiy mine pUue-iiio and moro pay than we have ever obtained in breeding any other etook. Try it. for. Cincinnati Orange ltulletin. district in Yakim.i county, which mine is owned by the Con-olidated Bullion -Mining Company, to whom all communica tions relative to the mine mut be ad dressed. The company owns ten claims in a body on the copper field, and, unless I am mistaken, the mine is the richest on this roast. Tho tests that have been inailo of tho ore havo established the fact that it is absolutely the first grade , of copper ore, carrying .Hevcral dollars per ton in silver with tho almost certain , prospect of its increasing rapidly in the latter metal when further depth is at- turned.
