CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wisconsin, Sept. II.
The Central house, the principal house
in this city, and five other dwellings were
swept away by fire on Saturday evening
last. The fire originated in the barn of
the hotel, but how no one seems to know.
The fire occurred in the very heart of the
city, and but for the calmness of the night
and the heroic efforts of the fremen and
public in general, the entire city would
have been laid in ashes. The loss is
estimated at from $4,000 to $4,000.
Mr.. Taylor, proprietor of the Central
house is the heaviest loser. He was only
few days ago offered $4,000 for the ho-
tel. He carried an insurance on the build
ing of $1,000. and on his furniture $4,000
About all he will save out of this wreck is
about 500 worth of furniture. Mr.. Thomas
Phillips lost a building worth about
$4,000; insured for S1,500 Mr.. Pat
rick Tierney lost two small frame
buildings worth $500, and We're
insured for $500. Mr.. Olinger, of Eau
Claire, lost two buildings, valued at from
$4,000 to $4,000. Mr.. Belair, prominent
merchant, was badly kicked by a horse
which he attempted to take out of the
bnrning barn, and is not expected to live.
A young man named Sands, who slept in
the barn, is missing, and it is supposed he
persisted in the flames. The fire lasted from
half past o'clock until 3 this morning, and
people vino visited the city from Eau Claire
stated that they could see the flames at
that place very distinctly.
A meeting of our leading citizens will be
held tomorrow (Monday) and they will as
sist Mr.. Taylor in rebuilding the hotel on
a grander scale. There is considerable
feeling against Cobban, the owner of the
Opera house. for attempting to stop men
from going on 10 the roof of that building
to prevent the flames from spreading, but
mayor Hoffman ordered the men on the
roof, and by the aid of blankets and
water saved the building, and
We might safely say the city. Our peo-
pie are under everlasting obligations to
Mayor Bailey, of Eau Claire, for his
promptness in sending the fire department
of that city to our aid.

When Cows are at Their Prime.

Cows are usually at their prime at
about seven or eight years of age. Be-
fore that age they may be expected to im-
prove in their milk yield each year, and
after that age they will be likely. at least
after a few years. to fall off little each
year. German observations show that rs
a rule the annual yield of milk rises grad
ually from the birth of the first calf until
the fifth, reaches its maximum about the
sixth, then sinks gradually till the tenth
calf, when it is about the same as at first
calving, and, after the thirteenth or four
teenth calf, is only one-fourth to one-tif1h
of the maximum yield. Some cows. of
course, will hold out in their milk
better than others, but the re-
suits of the German observations
are pretty near the average. Improved
breeds of cattle require improved meth
ods of feeding and management, in or
der to maintain the Improvement. A cross
of Shorthorn or Hereford upon our native
cattle produces an improved animal-one
which can take on flesh faster and fatten
more rapidly than the best native. provid-
ed the needful supply of food is given.
The supply of food must be greater than
that which the native had. or there is no
advantage to be derived from the improve
ment. No animal can produce flesh
without the requisite amount OF food
One of the great advantages of the i'm
proved breeds is that they Law on flesh
more rapidly and consequently produce at
less cost than in the case of the native,
which lays on flesh slowly and at an in
creased cost per pound.
When wool is the great item of profit
in keeping sheep, particular attention
should be given to the condition of the
sheep in the full vigor. There is no
greater oversight in sheep keeping than
to allow them to depend on poor pas
ture. and thus reach the cold season in
thin condition. 1t is then very difficult to
winter them well, and the wool always
shows the effect of such management.
Wool, like every other animal product, is
made from the food. and if the food is
short. the product is always little short
er. Profit only comes from intelligent
and liberal feeding.
