THE UNATTAINABLE GOOSE. A lament for the goose; the "good fat luscious goose of Pomerania," finds pro minence in the Landwirtschaftliche Wachenschrift:-
Pomerania, the most beloved of ni provinces by our table exquisites, will have this year to sacrifice the goose population, which has made it famous in Germany, long before these delectable birds shall havo, reached their usual state of perfer Don.
The Pomeranian geese owe their fat ness to the corn which is found in such abundance in these parts. This corn is now far too valuable to serve as poultry food, seeing that our people are obliged largely to subsist on potatoes and roots in view of the scarcity of the very material which hitherto has constituted the main nutriment of our Pomeranian geese,
"German epicures will, therefore, have to content themselves with poorly fed geese or with no guese at all. We are aware that the prospect has already called forth murmurs of disgust in certain circles, but the authorities will not thereby be debarred from their very just decision to exclude the geese from what remains of our Pomeranian cornfielda."!
