Wooly Bull.— Barnum’s wooly horse is outdone by a wooly 
bull in Clinton Co., Ill., of which a story is current among credu¬ 
lous persons. It is to the effect that this wooly bull is a cross of 
a Cotswold ram on a heifer; it is now two years old and has been 
used to cross several heifers, which are expected to produce wooly 
calves. This is a great improvement, and as the saying goes, 
“ is important if true.” For a dairy cow that will yield a fleece 
of fine wool two inches long, give a mess of milk and reproduce 
her kind once a year, will be a very profitable animal, with a 
fleece of about 100 pounds of wool, a butter record of 700 or 
800 pounds of butter, and in time a good pedigree, such an ani¬ 
mal should sell judging by the prices of the Jerseys, at $25,000 !
