The Novi'iu!op mooting oftliis As-
Mwiation was held in Jamestown on
Mondav, the lSih, in the hall of the
Jamestown Tanners' Club, an organ
ization which has been in succesnful
operation since last spring. The club
has a very nice, well arranged hall,
and hold their meetings once in two
weeks. Flint Blanehard, Esq., Pres
ident of the club, called the meeting
to order, aud after the reading of the
minutes of the last meeting, by the
Secretary, (and also the pajer on
teaminsr. read bv Ir. Parker at the
last meeting,) the discussion of the
regular question was oicned witn au ,iol,vieii whether .-he got anv nour
essay by W. C. Gifford, of Eusti, on islimcnt from it.
: . . i
the best manner of wintering dairy
cows. Mr. Gifford said that since
the reports of our meetings are pub
lished in the agricultural papers from
Albanv to Chicago, the practical, snc -
eessful farmers and dairymen should : So can sau. fl(st mt wheather it will
not only take part in our discussions, 1 pav js tj,e qUestion. He said that J.
but should lie the principal Sjeakersj 1 -Lvman (formerlv- the agricultural
at these meetings. While disclaim- jej;tor (lf thc Xev York Tribune)
ing to be an extra farmer himself, yet onw, toll him that around New York
he is willing, when called upon, to
cive his views: because he practices
what lie preaches, lie thinks that
thc time to begin wintering cows is
when thc pastures first begin to fail
in thc summer. If cows are fed even
three or four stalks of sowed corn
every day, as soon as the feed begins
to get a little short from its first flush,
and as the pasture grows less, if the
Mowed corn is Increased, so that the
cows lose no flesh, nor'shrink in their
milk (or rather the yield of butter,)
then cows are ready at all times for
wiutcr, they enter upon this inclem
ent season in the best possible condi
tion. They eat less during the win
ter, because they have no loss of flesh
to make up. They must also be sta
bled through erery cold storm in the
fall, or they will shrink their milk.
Even if it is necessary to use some
of the fodder provided for winter,
there is no loss. The flesh must be
kept on the cows if they are expect
ed to winter well and cheaply. The
stables should be in readiness early
in the fall. They must be wind proof
and yet well ventilated; tight enough
and warm enough, so that the manure
will not freeze behind the cattle; the
Stanchions comfortable and strong;
the floor, where thc cows stand and
lie down, must be raised alout three
inches above the part where the ma
nure falls, so that thc ows will not
get dirty when they lie down; and
the mangers and feeding boxes kept
i le an by being swept out at least once
a day.
Regularity in times of feeding must
also be insisted .upon and practiced.
He does not think that it is as neces
sary to observe how often to feed, us
it is to feed at thc seme times every
day, be they few or many. Neither
should the cows be over fed at any
lime. Only so much should be fed
at once as thev will eat up clean. He
makes his cows cat up nearly all the j
cornstalks, allowing them to leave but
few even of thc buts. He likes to
feed often, although he does not in
sist upon it. He thinks that cattle
can le wintered well on less fodder,
if fed sevca r eight times a day.
The cows, if fed but little at a time,
'tt everything up clean, aud when
they have eaten so much that they
begin to pick it over, he feeds no more
at that time. He then went on to
show by estimates, that the total loss
to farmers in this State, by feeding
so much at a time that some is left to
U thrown out. is $4,000,000. This
includes the loss of flesh by over feed,
. as well as loss of fodder. No stock
will do as well with food bore it all
the time, as if fed at regular times,
only just w hat they will cat up clean.
Cattle will eat straw well if fed but
little .at a time, for two or three feeds.
All feeding should be done in the sta
ble. He keeps his cows in the sta
bles about twenty-three out of twen-
ty-fonr hours; turning them out for
water twice a dav. He doubts thc
profit of cutting i:p the hay or corn
stalks for cows. At least
his COWS I
cat just as many poumis cut as ii (
fed whole, and his cows ahvavs are
in first rate condition as to flesh.
Would not go into steaming feed for
his cows w ithout some previous in
vestigation. He always cards his
cattle every day, thus keeping the
skin clean and healthy, and the coat
U always gWsy. Cattie must always
lie carefully and kindh handled. At
the time of "coining in" cows require
the very best early cut hay, and grain
enough to keep up their flesh.
O. C. Ulodgett had never tried
steaming the food for cows. lie
thinks that it might pay if only coarse
(odder is available; docs not think it
would pay to cut and steam early cut
hay, which is always fully digested
when prepared by the cows them
selves. Mr. ltlam hard said that all the ex-;
jK-riments mentioned in Ir. Parker's
paper were made in dairies w here the
miik is sold. The steaming question
for us to examine is, "will it pay for
us here in Chautauqua County," at
present prices of labor, machinery,
Tain, hay, butter and cheese?
W. 1. Wicks said that he should
differ from Ir. Parker as to the value
of steaming ftod. No dairyman
should try to winter more cows than
he has fodder for; and this fodder
must all be early cut hay. He feeds
such hay three times a day, and has
been in thc businesstwenty-twoyears.
He commences feeding provender
made oy p raiding two oushcisoi corn
with one of oatsabout the middle of
January. He wets up the meal with
water before feeding, increasing the
grain after calving. He does not
think steaming will pay in this coun
ty, although it might in Herkimer
countv: but he is ready to tro in for
anything new that will pay.
J. Fuller says he is no steamer; he
keeps forty cows, and makes cheese
from May 15th to October 1st. The
rest of the season he makes butter.
Feeds principally early cut hay, and
two quarts of meal to each cow all
w inter. If he Las any coarse fodder
to feed, he feeds it at the fore part of
winter, then finishes off on hay. He
has friends in Herkimer County, and
they tell him that steaming only pays
where milk is sold, lie has only au
ordinary lot of cows, and as he rais-.
ps h:s own cews. about cirht of them
are heifers, two and three years old
His whole lot of cows usually aver
age him $50 each. Hedries them off
alout December 1st.
II. Covey does not agree with Mr. j
Gifford cs to feeding out hay before j
winter; keeps all the fodder for cold i
weather. When feeding his coarse '
fodder he docs it in the middle of the
winter, wl.cn the cold makes the cows
have good appetites, lie feeds grain j

valuable. If con fodder gets dry,
cattle should not be made to cat the

which is valueless for food. It might
be steamed and mixed with meal, an

Mr. Dlodsrett thought

: jt avg t0 steam fodder for cows when

was steamed, the" hay being sold in
the citv. Cutting coarse fodder aud
hay together does not pay. The cut
ting and mixing does not make food
of it, but only forces the cow to cat
what she does not want nor need.
O. II. Fields said that 1859 (th
year of thc noted June frosts), his
hay crop and corn fodder combined
only amounted to 20 tons, and he had
20 head of cows aud horses to keep
on this amount. He had also a good
lot of turnips. He cut all his fodder
by horse power, and fed each cow
and horse three scoop shovels full
er dav. The cows bad a peck of
turnips each in
horses had some
addition, and the
grain. Jie cut up
and cured some of his corn fodder as
oon as tasseled. This was not as
good fodder as that left till thc nub
bins ripened. He thought his straw
cutter helped him splice out a winter
when he was pretty "short."
Mr. I.lanchard said that the hay
was of better quality that year. Ow
ing to the June frosts it did not head
out, and w hen cut was like "rowen,"
all leaves and vcrv solid in the mow.
Mr. Gifford said that he fed his 20
cows the same winter on one bundle
of cornstalks each per day. Fed but
a few stalks ut a time, and fed tiften,
making his cows cat up buts and all.
If there had been a large feed at a
time, some would have been left, ami
they never would have eaten it.
When they had but little, they ate it
up, and their mangers were left clean.
Cattle like clean mangers as well as
we like clean plates. He had found
cutting valueless. Thinks cows like
their food in the winter as they eat
grass in the summer a little at a
tiuiti s.nd very often.
J. Hewey cuts his hay early, when
in blossom, stables in lirst storms in
the fall, feeds regularly, keeps salt
where his cows cau get it at any time,
feeds cruin (two bushels oats and one
of corn, ground,) all winter, except at
thc time of calving; then feeds bran
instead for a few days, and his cows
always do will.
Mr. IJIodgett here slated that the
patentee of French's dairy steam en
gine proposes to exhibit one of his
engines at some future meeting of the
Association. An engine capable of
doing the churning for 20 cows costs
$40, and one of one-horse power costs
$125. Thev are fitted to set on an j
ordinary cook stove, and blow off
steam at 15 pounds, so that there is
no danger.
lr. Parker said that the natural
food of eattlo is seveiwighths water.
The secretions and liicrctious are
nearly all water. Pry hay is then
fore an unnatural food, requiring
moisture to reader it digestible.
Steaming is U tter than soaking, be
cause there is no danger of fermenta

few hours it would be steamed. He
made this as a suggetion.
C. Perry thought it had paid him
tocomc to this meeting. He hassome
c rn fodder that is not fir.-t rate, and
had thought some of getting a stalk
cutter, but since he had listened to
the different speakers, he had made
up his mind not to do it! He would
not be truilty of imposing poor cut
stalks upon his cows for good food.
He usually commences feeding sowed
corn in August. He is now feeding
half a bushel of sliced mangolds to
each cow, and has been since the 1st
of October. Previous to that he had
fed his pumpkins at the same ratc.but
all the seeds were out before feeding.
Thinks sowed corn StowcH's Ever
green Sweet the lest feed, and finds
no difference between pumpkins and
beets. After Ids cows come in, he
feeds them a peck of mangolds, and
two quarts of meal on them, to each
cow until turned out to grass.
Mr. Wicks said he knew of a case
i:i West field, in the earl' .settlement
of the town, where a cow w as win
tered well on boiled corn cbs.
Mr. Blanehard said that he is nat-
urallv lazv, that he dislikes to do
j chores in the w inter, and ha satisfied
, himself, after much experiment, that
(hay should be cut very early, cured
(quick, and housed. Corn should
also be cut as soou as fit, husked
early and fodder housed. If that is
all attended to in time if the stables
are wnn and convenient he can be
as lay as he pleases in winter. He
keeps his cows in the stable all the
time except when they are turned
out t 'drink, which is once a dav.

the discovery of cement new uses

constructed of it in place of stone,
brick or wood.
THE DISCOVERT OF CEMEN T.
The credit of first discovering this
useful article is due in great measure
to Canvass White. He w:is a young
engineer, employed in the construc
tion of the Erie Canal. While the
gret public work was building. White
went to Europe to inspect the Bo
man cement. A view of thc stone
from which it was made recalled a
ledge of rocks in Madison county, in
this State. The idea at once occur
red to him that it was the same kind
of stone as that which produced the
Roman cement. Upon his arrival
home in 1819 he visited the Madison
count v ledge, and secured fragments
of the rock. With these be began ex
perimenting. He first burned it, and
then endeavored to slack it, as was
done in thc manufacture of lime. But
his efforts were unsuccessful.
In 1S19 there lived in Madison
county a Pr. Barstow. He was a
member of the Canal Board of Com
missioners to settle claims. He had
dipped into all sorts of scientific stud-
ies, ana was wen verseu geucrao.
i ii i 1 1
Ono dav White was experimenting
with the stono at a blacksmith s shop
in Chitteuango when Uarstow drove
up. After watching White burn it
in thc forge and try to slack it in the
cooling tub. the doctor suddenly call
ed out : "White, pulverize that stuff,
and it will set," White followed Bar
stow's advice. The result was the
first cement made in this country
From the Madison county ledge all
the cement used in constructing the
Erie Canal was made.
In 1825 the building of the Dela
ware and Hudson Canal was begun.
Many of its engineers had seen ser
vice "on the Erie. They knew what
a valuable cement was in the construc
tion of locks, Ac, and they were anx
ious to discover cement along the line
of the proposed canal to faciliate thc
work. With this idea in view they
went on a prospecting tour. They fin
ally found cement stono at what is
now kuown as Bruceville,. some sev
en or eight miles from Kingston. The
stone was quarried and burned by
John Littlejohn, carried to High Falls,
near by, and ground in the mill of
Simeon Dcpuy. In this way all the
cement used on the canal was made.
It was not barreled, but was trans
ported in tight boxes to the place of
use, and stored until required in bulk,
in sheds erected for thc purpose.
THE PIONEER CEMENT MANI FACTORV.
The commencement of the Croton
Aqueduct in New York in 1837 caus
ed a new demand for cement, in
t'lat year Hugh White of Cohoes
Falls came to this country. He open
ed a quarry at what is now called
Whitenort (in his honor), a hamlet
some four miles from this city. He
erected two mills at tho Grccnkill
grist mill, near Blooniingdale, and one
at Whiteport. Thc ruins of the for
mer are plainly to bo seen to this day.
Here the cement used in building the
Croton Aqueduct was made.
t pon the completion ot the aque
duct Mr. White discontinued the bus
iness. It was, however, continued
by thc Hoffmans, who established thc
reputation of thc Rosendale ecment
It is now considered the best made.
In 1829, or thereabouts,Mr. Watson
E. Lawrence, of New York, liegnn
thc manufacture of cement at Law
renceville, in the town of Rosendale.
THE CAPACITY OF THE VARIOUS COM
PANIES.
These works, now the uronerty of
the Rosendale Cement Company.have
a capacity of 300 barrels daily, and
employ CO men. Subsequently a cor
poration styled thc Lawencevillc Ce
ment Company began manufacturing
cement at th's place. Jt at present
makes 125,000 barrels annually, and
employs 130 men.
At Bruceville the Bruceville Ce
ment Company's works are located.
They turn cut" about 20,000 each sea
son, and give employment to 35 hands.
Their daily capacity is 300 barrels.
At Lefever Falls there arc two
manufactories the New York Ce
ment Company's and Martin & Clear
water's. Thc former manufactures
500 barrels a day, and about 100,000
barrels during the season, and em
ploys 100 hands. The latter makes
about s'0,000 barrels annually, and
employs a like number of men.
THE BUSINESS AT WII1TF.PORT.
At Whiteport there arc three com
panies. The Newark and Rosendale
Cement Company's works ere the
largest. They turn out about S00
barrels a day, and have capacity for
1,000 barrels. They employ nbout
ISO men. The quarries aic entered
b- tunnels. Two of them are 200
feet in length each, with a perpendic
ular depth of 150 feet. Seventy kilns
are oj rated by this company, fifteen
of which are in a constant use. The
Lawrence Cement Comtiaur was cs-
tablished in 1848. The manufac
ture 550 barrels a day, and employ
100 hands. The Warner Lime anil
Cement Company of Troy have a
quarry and kilns here. The capacity
of their works is about 50,000 barrels
yearly. They employ a bont twenty
men.
THE UKJH FALLS MANUFACTORY.
At High Falls the extensive works
of F. O. Norton are situated. They
employ about 100 men, and manufac
ture something like 300 barrels daily.

'M III nil 'si
i legislature. At that tune tlio busi
ness was wholly carried on at Newark.
The cement stono was obtained from
this city, where th-y held a quarry
under lease. In 1844 they purchased
the quarry, together with about forty
acres of land ami a water front on
the Rondoutcreek. They now own
about 250 acres in and around the
city.
CEMENT FIRST MA1E IN KtXIiSToS.
Ia 1849 the demand for their ce
ment became so great the company
decided to erect a manufactory i i this
city. In 1851 the works were com
pleted. Since then the manufacture
of cement has been actively carried
on here. The company now make
one thousand barrels a day, although
the capacity of their works is much
greater. During tjje season they
turn out about 250,000 barrels and
employ some 300 men. The works
consist mainly. of twenty-one kilns,
two mill buildings, with fourteen runs
of stones, store-houses capable of
holding 25,000 barrels of cement, a
cooperage establishment, and mill
wrights', wheelwrights', blacksmiths',
and carpenters' shops. The motive
power for driving the machinery is
supplied by two steam engines, one of
them of two hundred horse power.
The stone from which the cement
is made is taken from a huge moun
tain of rock directly in rear of the
works. It is 250 feet hiffh, with an
area on thc summit of some fortv
acres. It can plainly be seen from
the Hudson River by travelers on the
day boats. Thc mountain was origi
nally sold for a mere song.
Millions of dollars in cement have
since beeu taken from its rock depths.
Thc stone is obtained by tunnelling
and sinking shafts, from which ex
tend galleries in every direction
Miles upon miles of tunnelling have
been made, until now the interior of
the mountain presents the appear
ance of a vast honevcomb. The cav
erns arc as black as night, and it re
quires no little amount of dating to
venture into them. Water contmii
ally drips from the massive walls. In
the winter the side of tho giant ex
cavations aro one mass of ice, present
ing a brilliant spectacle. Here, dav
after day, toil the miners, blasting
and quarrying the stone, so far remov
ed that the terrible thunder of the
explosions within never reach the ears
of the busy villagers.
On the east side of the mountain a
new shaft has been sunk to the depth
ot 2o0 tcet. It is now down to
the level of tide-water, aud it is
proposed to sink it some hundred feet
or more further. Although these
quarries have beeu worked for twenty-two
seasons, it will be years yet
before the vast deposit of cement stone
is exhausted.
From the quarries the stone is car
ried on cars through tunnels and nver
inclined planes to the tops of the
kilns, where it is mixed with tulm or
fine coal and burned. These kilns
are kept burning day and night thc
season through. After burning, it is
transported in cars to the mill, where
it is ground to a fine powder, and
packed in barrels at the rate of one
hundred an hour.
Thp manner of making the barrels
is interesting. The staves art set up
on end in an iron ring, resting on the
floor. A rope is passed around the
other end of the staves, tightened by
a windlass, and a second ring put on.
It is then placed upon a drum stove
the size of the barrel, and steamed.
After steaming the ends of thc slaves
are evened off with a plane, and a
groove for thc heads cut. The bar
rel then passes to tho hooper, and fin
ally to thc header, when it is finished
ed. Before being completed it goes
through five different hands. In this
way it takes barely five minutes to
make a barrel, The cost of each is
about thirty-five cents.
The barrels arc conveyed on cars
to the mill. Here the heading are
taken out by boys employed for the
purpose. Next they pass into the
bands of other boys, whose business
it ii to line thein with paper. Coarse
brown wrapping paper is used ; tons
upon tons are consumed yearly. Thc
barrels are now ready to receive the
cement They are then placed under
the hoypers of the grinding mill upon
movable platforms. These platforms
are kept moving up and down con
tinually, with a quick, sudden motion,
and as the cement runs slowly into
thc barrels, it is packed tightly by
the force of the movement. After
being headed up the barrels are rolled
into the large storehouses to await
shipment.
The construction of buildings of ce
ment concrete instead of stone, brick,
or wood, was begun by this company
a few years ago. The mode of build
ing may be briefly described : A hol
low frame or wall of wood, three or
four feet high,-is made and placed on
the foundation. In this is poured a
mixture of very thin cement and fine
ly broken stones. When the cement
has set, the frame is raised and again
filled with the concrete. This opera
tion is repeated till the wall is of the
desired height. All the partitions are
made in a similar way. Houses built
in this manner have many advantages
over those built of the ordinary ma
terial. They arc dryer and as firm
as though constructed of solid rock.
Thc Children's Church and several
stures and elegant residences here
have been built of this material. By
adding coloring matter to the concrete
it may be made to imitate"" brown or
other stones.
The cement made in this county is
the best in the world. It was used in
building the Croton, Cochituate, Al
bany, Washington and Philadelphia
Water Works, and in the principal
fortifications, and other Government
Works. Boston is thc heaviest mark
et for cement, although it finds ready
sale in every port on thc seaboard
from New Brunswick to Texas.
