In common with many Others, had most
of my family supply of potatoes frozen; and
have for several weeks been feeding them
to my COW with evident benefit. The freez-
ing of potatoes does not materially lessen the
amount of nutriment they contain; but it is
necessary to avoid having them thaw many
days before feeding, as decomposition soon
commences, and then they are offensive and
injurious to animals. 1t is also necessary to
feed but few at time; especially ut first-to
avoid a surfeit. My COW, giving six to eight
quarts of milk per day, is fsd half bushel
of frozen potatoes daily in three portions,
with little bran and hay, and is doing we'll

A few months ago a merchant in New
York city having occasion to require an ex-
ira book keeper placed in one of the city
journals, for a single issue only, an advertise
ment stating the nature of tho work and
price to DO paid, which was only Ss per
week. AS a result of the advertisement
some five hundred men applied for the posi-
ton. At the same time the above incidents
occurred there were several hundreds, and
think thousands, Of wharfInen, in the same
city, on a general strike, because their om-

For the VERMONT FARMhR,
Corsets.

notice in one Of our state papers an arti-
Gle in which the writer attempts to warm
over this subject, which has for years been
matter of so much concern to people who
consider themselves safe from the running
embrace.
Hitherto have avoided the subject, and
would have been shocked Mt the idea of ex-
pressing myself publicly, but this last straw
thrown upon the smouldering fire produces
blaze which cannot be concealed. When
the subject was first agitated l merely gave
it a glance of contempt. After a time, hear
ing it discussed Mt such extreme lengths, /
began poking at 1t with long stick; then 1
used shorter ones, finally club, and now
becoming exasperated, am easily drawn for
ward to grasp the disgusting subject boldly.
Let others beware how they glance in the
direction of temptation.
There are few clustering women and as
many bachelor doctors who spend much of
their precious time and talent in lengthy dis
sertations on the enormous crime of wearing
corsets. The first have no particular busi-
ness of their own, and so interest themselves
on their neighbors; and the second find in
this II convenient name for numerous dis
eases of which they know but little.
That tight ldcing is injurious do not wish
to deny, and that some foolish people have
shortened their lives in this barbarous way
IS too true; but they might not have done
this lacing with corsets, and it is possible
they did 1t docs not follow. however, that
cOrsets are injurious to every one, and de-
ny it enphatically. That they are n benefit
and comfort 1 will testify, and every intel
igent, sensible lady, who dresses in civil
lied manner, will agree.
Because II few foolish people choose to
wear tight dress waists, bands, corsets. &C..
is it sensible to say that corsets should be
banished? Better banish the person to some
foreign country where they dress in n print
tive way. 1t would be just as sensible to
advise people to discard boots and wear In
dian moccasins because boys and girls tctii
persist in wearing them tight, and quite as
many would accept the advice.

TIE PRISONER.
ny GRACE ArHERroN.

A pris'ner lone, with fetters bound,
within dark'ned cell,
Counting each link with weary round,
A story each may tell
Each link may bind volume old
With pages dim with tears,
And memory cen now enfold
The bliss Of other years.
One link may bring the starry skies,
with breath Of dewy eve,
within the paling Of the eyes,
And fairy phantoms weavei
The brooklet from the green hillside
That's dancing on It's way,
The birdlings with their songs Of pride
Are pictured here each day.
The sunny slope where childhood free
Was passed with easy grace,
Endearing rock, and rill, and tree,
As time wore on apace,
While humming birds, and humming bees
Played with tho clover bloom,
And aitted round among rose trees
With all their sweet perfume.
The scene is changed another link
Is conned by weary hands,
The volume opes upon the brink
Oflove and youthful bands;
The stars they sing in revels high,
And move, a quesnly train,
Around the empress OF the sky
That smiles SO sweet again.
The trees they wear a deeper green
Than e'er their won't TO be,
The grassy plain, the mountain scone,
Are fairer now to see.
The sunbeams linger e'er they fade,
Adown the western slope,
And glintings throw of light and shade
Where cloudlets gently ope.
Another link, another change
Is floated 10 the view;
The sky above seems now so strange,
That once was fair and blue,
And darkness broods on ev'ry tree,
And shadows ev'ry vale;
The sunlight falls so mockingly,
Each bird-song seems wall.
pass this link, break not the seal
That binds with teary strain,
o fold the leaves Of woe and veal
Back to their place again.
Tho sunshine falls about around,
And others bask therein,
No golden ray will Ger be found
To throw its smile within.
Another link, one more, the last,
The hands are growing cold,
The cross is now exchanging fast,
To bear the crown Of gold;
o softly fold the silvern veil,
And drop tear with me,
These links have told a saddened tale,
The pris'ner now is free.

commenced first, except whit Mr.. Jesse
Bare. Of this place, Who nas been dead about
fifteen years. has frequently told me. and TO
whom | believe 1t has been conceded was
the first to use that article In manufacturing
tobacco. | do not know that can give the
exact date when Mr.. Hare first commenced
its use, as the war has greatly injured my re.
cole :tiou Of dates, but can come tolerably
near. especially after converSing with Colo
mel Aug. Leftwich, who was contemporary
of Mr.. Hare.
To the point: / believe that Mfr. Hare
commenced The use Of licorice between the
years 1927 aud 1880 certainly not before
1927. and certainly before 1880.
MIR. Hare has frequently informed me that
when he first used Iicoricc that he did not
put over two pounds 10 one hundred pounds
manufactured tobacco, and that he had no
trouble to sell his tobacco as fast as it reached
market at good paying prices; and that in
1889 or 1884, when Colonel Leftwich and
others commenced its use, he doubled the
quantity put on his, going up directly as
high as seven pounds and more TO the one
hundred pounds manufactured tobacco al
ways e'eby selling more readily, as the
more it was used the more highly was it ap-
preciated, until it came in general use.
Mr. Hare made and left at his death very
large fortune, Tor which, of course, this dis.
covery was the prime cause in the beginning.
For years after Mr.. Hare first commenced
to Use llcorice be had 1t cdSed 10 his office.
and sprinked the tobacco himself with the
lcorice. and admitted no one except his own
tavorite slaves.
In conclusion, will state that Mr.. Hare al.
ways claimed 10 be the first person who com
menced the use Of llcorice in the manulac-
ture of tobacco, and | believe he was the
first person who did SO use it. | am most
truly yours, CHARLES w. STATHAA.
