Cows; Milk; 1862. FOURTEENTH EDITION. NATIONAL TRIBUTE OF THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT TO M. GUENON, FOR HIS VALUABLE DISCOVERY WITH BEGABD TO MILCH COWS. PENSION OF THEEE THOUSAND FRANCS A YEAR TO THE AUTHOR. The National Assembly's Committee on Agriculture have unanimously voted to confer on M. GuENON a pension of three thousand francs a year, in consideration of his discovery of an infallible method for determining the capacities of milch cows. This method is the same as has become so generally known and appreciated throughout the United States, through the medium of that excellent little work published by you containing a translation of 1 M. Guenon's treatise on the subject. The committee, in the report (which will soon be presented to the Assembly, and no doubt < adopted with unanimity), say that the method has been suijected to the most thorough tests, and that no doubt can exist as to its infallibility; by following the directions of M. Guenon, as laid down in the treatise, any one can tell with certainty whether a cow is a good milker, or whether a young heifer will become one, so that there need be no doubt as to the profit of rais- ' ing an animal, and no chance of being taken in in the purchase of one. By this means the farmer may select among his young calves those that will give abundance of milk when they are raised, and dispose of the rest at once for the shambles. IVo breeder of cattle need be told of the immense advantages which such a guide confers. The committee say that a discovery of this nature, which adds so largely to the actual' worth of the country, is pre-eminently deserving of a national acknowledgment, and they ac- cordingly propose that the Republic confer upon M. Guekom- the pension of three thousand fran
