They are of a poor and stunted breed. Donkeys are most commonly used for riding and. for drawing vehicles. Dromedaries are used as beasts of burden, particularly in the north. The slate-colored buffalo (water-buffalo) is used in plowing and in the wet rice- fields. The use of milk is a rare thing: Chinese do not like it. Cattle im- provement has never been encouraged, consequently. cows are` scarce and of- inferior variety. The pig has been given the best care of all the domestic ` animals and is given many privileges. We have made many importations of this stock, into our -own country. Chinese sheep and goats are large and are found in great numbers. There is really only one pure type of dog. It isaboutrthe. size of our Spaniel.
