Karly Sunday morning Mary start
ed for the tomb of Jesus, and ar
rived while it was still dark. The
lir-.t thinir she saw was that the
stone wuich closed the sepulcher had
been pulled away. Without Btopping
to reason nr hardly to think she rati
hastily back toward the city, and
met Peter and John going to the
tomb. She told tliem that the body
had been taken from the sepulcher.
The tidings were a little disconcert
ing, especially as this was the morn
ing upon which a few of the faith
ful followers were just about to
gather, Moth ran toward the tomb,
John reaching there a Title in the
advance. They found the tomb emp
ty. John did not at first enter the
tomb, he only looked in. Peter
(topped not to look but entered.
Then .'"tin also went in. There they
saw the grave clothes, but no body.
Chen i icy went to tin r homes again.
Manlike. Peter nnd John heard the
news, ru-!ied to confirm it. jumped
at the conclusion that the body
had been removed and went away.

Mill filled with tears, but half doubt

Whenever a cow is kept for mi!k thera

Important than to the rich man with
many SOSes and more money . It should

the minimum amount of exjiense, in

The corns, should be comfortable,
healthy nnd vigorous, able to consume,
properly digest and assimilate food for
her support and a large surplus for
milk. The profit in dairying is always
measured by this surplus. Moderate
exercise, under favorable conditions,
will contribute to the desired result;
but every effort of the cow beyond that
will detract from the profit. All tlio;

H iindreds of times 1 have been met with
the statement: "I would like to keep

disagreeable labor and the Interest on

Farmers' Review.
Dairy breeds of cattle are, as u rule,
lank in form and of a nervous-, san
guine temperament, excitable, quick
motioned and disturbed by every
thing strange.
EVOLUTION OF BREEDS.
Undying the Pedigree of Our So
Called Native I'OHi Brio Oat
Some Odd Facta.
Tracing the evolution of breeds is
always interesting. Someone hu.
been figuring out the pedigree of th.
to-called "native" cow of this country
and brings to light some odd fact
that are worth recording. As early
as 1611 dairy cows were brought tc
A'irginia from England, and lli yean
later there was an importation j nt
the Plymouth colony. This was in
lt24. These cows were brought from
Devonshire, England, and were doubt
less of the same stock as that from
which the Devon breed was developed
at a later period. This probably ac
counts for the predominance of red
color in the native New Kngland cat
tle. Whether or not the Virginia
RBCORD-BRBAKINQ hi ll.

cows were from the same locality we
do not know for a certainty. At a lit
tle later period evidently cattle were
imported into Virginia from Spain.
Tin se cattle were black. The Dutck.
having settled New York, naturally
brought cws from their own coun
try. Some of th. se nre known to have
come from off the const of Holland.
That was before the development of
fixed breeds even in Holland, but ws
may fairly infer that they were re
lated to the progenitors of the Dutch
belted cattle. Delaware was provided
with cattle front Sweden, nnd it is
said that from Denmark were brought
the cattle that became famous in New
Hampshire. Coming down to revolu
tionary times we find that cattle had,
nt that date, been previously imported
from llrcat Britain and Ireland in
considerable numbers. Some of these,
we know from tradition, were white
Durhams, especially white Durham
bulls. The general mix-up of all of
these breeds, which subsequently took
place, gave us the almost endless va
riety of form nnd color now seen in
American cattle.
