be conveniently and and economically kept but in this city and in some other cities and settlements in the Terri territory tory torr grass in the vicinity has hag become v veny very ery cry scarce and to drive cows several miles into the mountains or into the country for their daily food is not very pleasant nor very profitable for these reasons many persons have ceased to keep a cow although the milk and the butter sweet rich fresh butter of ones own make would be I 1 high hish li ly acceptable could thir possession possess ibn be reasonably accomplished complis hed to send end a cow miles away on the range every day through the hot summerford summer for only indifferent feed when there is not encouraging the results are not satisfactory to keep up and stall feed a large cow without a corresponding pon ding and paying return of milk and butter which does oes oe s not always come is not to be thought of by by people of ordinary incomes what then is to be done to depend upon the stores xe regularly for no I 1 butter is vanity ani ana and as for milk for the children few would be willing to buy sufficient at ten or twelve cents a quart if they could in this dilemma we have much pleasure in referring our readers to a description of the breton or brittany cow published in another column of to days NEWS newa the ar icicle is from the massachusetts ploughman a staid reputable p paper a not particularly given to ba baseless sp sensa sensations tiong the editor of the ploughman seems to be perfectly satisfied that the brittany is the model family cow far preferable to that of any other breed he says it has the characteristics of small size docility being a very light feeder and a great and constant in proportion to the cost bost of keeping the best of butter makers furni furnishing she ing the richest and choicest and highest flavored butter in the world 11 in short the brittany is the in most 0 st beautiful useful and profitable for family purposes of any ny of the bovine species if the tho report odthe of the ploughman be true and faithful and we know of no reason to doubt it we may toss our hats in the air and shout eureka yeureka the great desideratum the perfect family cow has at last been discovered and announced the little brittany cattle are not ot famous as beef creatures nor for the yoke |
