working in the wreck.

YOUNGSTOWN, Pa, June 1.-THE great
raft is in an endless, measureless grave
yard, made in night, Its tombstones
are the shattered timbers sticking out of
the wreckage. The torn, ragged frag-
ments OF walls marking where the
streets had been. Though hundreds
have already been uncovered, the dead
now are coming to light in surprising
numbers--if any one here can be SUR
prised, and there are some faces among
them that had never been missed.
The sIchentng stencil.
People just arriving i'm Johnstown say
that the stencil il sickening and fearful,
tainting the air OF the valley every
where, while those who have worked
here throughout the trying scenes have
noticed ii only at times and in certain
places, showing that their senses are be-
numbed.
All the waters are giving up their
dead and the skiffs and grapplers are in
waiting for them. The red shirted lum-
herman standing midway in the raft,
who ii called the marker and color
bearer. raised his ak to strike, but the
blow never FELL II it had it would have
cut in twain the first of the bodies taken
from the point on the morning of the
tenth day. It was the remains of a
woman. Emma Roth by name, identi-
fled by her broken hearted husband an
hour later.
Prematurely Aged.
DR.. G. G. Brinckley, one of Johns
towns brightest and most promising
physicians, was found at last in the
raft near where that of the woman lay.
Although but 80 years Of age his APP
pearance when the remains Were rescued
was that of man 20 years old. Others
unknown were taken from the raft at
al hours of the day, among them an
old man with his little boy clasped in his
arms.
With every hour comes a salute for
the hundreds yet buried there. II Is the
blast at dynamite. Five bodies were
found under one single heap of the
wreckage in the town. One Of them
was Kate Neary, the millner and
modiste.
One of the saddest identifications was
that Of Miss Blanche Hornish, of Day
ton. O. She was a passenger on the day
express. and her father had searched for
the past three days. Some workmen
found her body lying under the trestle
near the Pennsylvania railroad station.

surance agent. Nobody had given him

Corn for rattenInr rarpo.e..

Corn is used, perhaps. mere generally
than any other grain for fattening
purposes. OF flesh formers it contains
about 10 per cent. warmth giving and
fat producing constituents - per cent,
and Of bone forming substances 1 per
cent 1t may be noted that it is not a
well balanced food. as it is rich in fat,
containing over ; per cent. Of this alone.
II is not commendlble to feed it alone,
even for fattening purposes. and espe-
cially should this be observed when it is
desired to produce eggs. 1t is claimed
that the fat from fowls fed with yellow
corn is of a yellowish color, and hence
is objected to. In cold weather it may
be fed with advantage. but not in sum-
mer. as various disorders, caused by in
ternal deposits of fat, are very apt to re-
suit. 1t Is 4 good food. and its cheap
ness is largely in its favor; but it must
be fed in combination with others less
rich in fat and warmth giving properties
to be used without danger and to give
the best results.

EXPERIMENT STATIONS.


Iiicir Avoued Obleef-I5ow Farmers Nay
Aran Themselves 81 Their Aid.
The first of the American experiment
stations was established less than e.
teen years ago (Oct. 1. 1870. and
majority IL iIiem have been IN operation
scarcelg more than year. Every stsEte
has at least one station: several have
two, and one has three. These forty
SIX stations now employ over $40 trained
men in the prosecution Of experimental
inquiries and are supported by national
appropriation Of $500. 600. to which the
states add about sl25.000. making the
sum total Of S725 600 given from public
funds the present year for the support
Of agricultural experiment stations in
the United States. The object OF these
stations lis to experiment and TO teach.
ito make a regular business Of discovery
for the use of farming. Ito promote ag-
riculture by scientific investigation and
experiment, and ITO diifuse Us well rs
increase the knowledge which improves
farm practice and clcvates farm life
So says the bulletin. THE What and
Why Of Agricultural Experiment Sta
tons issued from the Office Of expert
ment stations Of the department Of agri-
culture.
Established for the benefit Of agricul-
ture, these stations make experiments in
the laboratory, the greenhouse. the gar
den. the orchard. the field. the stable
and the dairy. Inasmuch as each state
has its own station no reason appears
why farmers puzzled with agricultural
problems too difficult for their own solv-
ing should not appeal to the station of
their own state for assistance.
The stations publish bulletins and re-
ports of their work, which are supple
mented by publications Of the "Ofiice of
Experiment Stations" at Washington, ID.
G. As each station sends its own pub
lications. without expense, to residents
of its state who apply for them. there is
no excuse for any farmer remaining in
ignorance of what is going ON at his
own station. Wide awake men will not
only apply for the state bulletins, but
also for the publications intended for
general distribution. at the office in
Washington. d. C.

of fine form, delightful fragrance and a
splendid autumn bloomer. but not as
hardy as could be desired.
Apple trees may be transplanted, either
in the fall or spring: but in sections sub
ject to severe freezing and thawing
spring is the better time As all the
roots cannot be taken up with the stem,
the branches should be shortened SO as
TO preserve the balance between the TOP
and the roots.
The statistician Of the department of
agriculture estimates the total value Of
oxen and other cattle-as contrasted
with dairy stock--in the United States
to be Sl4,5l3.70S less than the value of
the same stock ut the time OF closing his
report last year. Dairy stock has main
tanned its value.
