Our First Cattle.
The first cattle brought to Affierica
from Europe were imported by Colum- 4
bus on his second voyage, in 1493. He
left Spain as admiral of seventeen i
ships, bringing a collection of trees.
plants and seeds of various kinds, a t
number of horses, a bull and several
cows. t
The first cattle introduced into the
Plymouth colony were imported by Ed- 9
ward Winslow in the ship "Charity" in
1624, consisting of three heifers and a t
bull. From other accounts they came
in the ship "Ann," which made her t
first voyage in 1623. In 1626 twelve
cows were sent to Cape Ann, and thirty I
more in 1629. In 1627 the cattle and o
goats of the "Plymouth Company"
were divided among the colonists for a t
term of ten years, the old stock to be ii
kept for common use and the new ani- 1
mals to be appropriated to their own
use. Among them are mentioned
"black heifers," "black cows," and a
"white-backed cow." In 1620, 100 an.
imals were imported under the direc
tion of Francis Higginson, formerly of
Leicestershire, for the "Governor and v
Company of the Massachusetts Bay in
New England," among which were
sixty or seventy oxen and cows.
Most of the latter arrived safe. Ow
ing to the loss of cattle by the Indians
and wolves, and the expenses of im
portation and keeping, the price at
first was so high as to put them be
yond the reach of many of the colon
ists. A red calf, however, soon be
came cheaper than a black one, on ac
count of the greater probability of its
being mistaken for a deer and killed by
the wolves. In 1636, when cows were
high as to be sold at from £25 to £30 ,
each, and oxen at £40 a pair, a quart
of new milk or four eggs could be
bought for a penny, a pound of butter
for sixpence and a pound of Cheshire
cheese for fivepence. The first cattle
introduced into New Hampshire were
imported from Denmark, by Capt. John
Maison and his associates, in about the!
year 1631 or 1632, to stock their plan
tations, and to be employed in drawing
lumber. These cattle were of large
size, and of a yellowish color. The
calves were allowed to run with their
dams. Their owners were ambitious
to be destinguished by the strength
and :,ize of their oxen, on which bets
were made and prizes given.-Farm
Journal.
With thousands of farmers the func
tions and effects of fertilizers are like
the grace of God-something too mys
terious to think about-and, as a con- I
sequence, hundreds of thousands of
dollars are annually wasted in the pur
chase and application of fertilizers, not
because they, ;it f good -quality,
Bult because the wro'ng application is
made. There is no longer any, .,xcuse
for the lack of accurate knowledge.
The Department of Agriculture at
Washington and state experiment sta
tions disseminate timely,comprehensive
and plain information with respect to ,
the use of fertilizers, and a good many
states protect the farmer by compelling
the fertilizer manufacturer to note
plainly on his bags just what they con
tain. Now is a good time to study the
bulletins and prepare for the intelli
gent application of fertihzers.
