J. Flyun, United States consul at Chemnitz, notes that the goods purchased in that great manufacturing city nover carry with them anything which would indicate to the purchaser their place of manufacture, All the credit goes to cities and towns which have nothing to do with the manu- facture or the sale of the goods, In the list of Chemnitz made goods are included hosiery sold in the United tates for French, English and Irish, French kid gloves, Humburg edgings and insertions, Nottingham lace cur- tains, Valenciennes and Spanish lace, Brussels and Axminster carpets, Paris artificial flowers and other KFrench millinery goods, buttons sold in Am- erica on French cards, fine English and French under clothing, Irish pop- lis in all colors and shades, some with the “‘Harp of Erin” brand upon them, Irish linens, French muflors, Tunis muslins, and Swiss embroidery and Dutch toys. Mr. Flynn does not know why it is that Chemnitz manu- facturers do not claim the credit which belongs to them, but they have gone on for hundreds of yearsin this way, and it would probably be a risky experiment now to change the maviner of things in order to satisfy little vanity., The explanation is probably very simple. It pays, and is done for the same reason that American bacon, ham and cheese are often sold in England in Knglish ackages and as Eoglish products, hemnitz began by trading upon the reputation of other cities, and has kept it up bocause it was tho easicat way to retain trade, SPORTING, Epecial Dispatels to Tie e SWIMMING ( INTEST, August 23 —The awim ontest for §1,000 and the cham- Bostox, min manufacturing d82 | RAMPANT REFORMERS. ‘Tlm Prohibitionists vie with the | Froo Thinkers in Methods of Norality, pionship of the world, botwoen Capt. | £ Webh and Thomas Rile, champion short distance swimmer of America, | was won by Webb, BRIGHTON BEACH RACES, NEw York, August 23 —The first raco, mile, Olivetto won;time, 1:51, Second race, mile, J. 0, Nay won; time, 1:50 Third race, mile and one-cight, Ida B. won; time, 2:01) Fourth race, five-vight of a mile, Mary Warren won; time, 1:05).

Three hundred men are out of work. e Economy in Dairy Cows. No person thinks of runuing two machines’to do the work of one, nor to occupy valuablo space with two ob- jects when a single one will answer. As with material so with cows for dairy purposes, and why farmers in- sist by practice on keeping two c)ws to give the milk of one 1s a matter that demands thought. Two cows in- stead of one require a double amount of food, to eay nothing of the care and attention needed in their manage- ment, and hence all the work, devoted to them above that actually necessary for the production of a given quantity of milk, butter or cheese is an extrav- gance and waste. One of the princi- pal causes of this lack of foresight in dairy matters is carelessness in breed- ing. It may be an expensive matter ou the part of dairymen to change their stock from an inferior to a bet- ter kind, but this need not be done suddenly unless the means guarantee it. By a selection of first-class bulls from our principal butter and milking strains mach benefit can be gained in a few seasons, 1f butter is the prin- cipal object in view, the use of a Jer- sy or Guernsey bull will not only in- crease the yield and guantity of but- ter, but, owing to the rapidity with which these breeds mature, the whole herd can be completely changed in two years. A second cross results in an increased benefit. The sum ex- pended for a bull need not necessarily be considered 8s an outlay, for the bull will possess amonetary value out- side of his usefulnees for stock pur- poses. As this principle is applicable to all dairies, s0 may the breeders for milking qualities resort to bulls of the Holstein and Ayrshire breeds for improvement, and our beef can be made much better by the use of the Shorthorns and Holsteins,
