Quality of Pork

The market now desires a smaller
animal, dressing from 175 to 25C
pounds, and containing a mixture OF
fat and lean through the whole body
To produce such an animal econOmi-
cauy it must be grown quickly and
fed from the start with foods that
will supply in abundance all the ne
cessities for building up bone, muscle
and fat. Skim-milk and bran are ad-
mirably adapted to supply the first
three elements, and corn meal is un.
doubtedly the best single food for
forming fat. A mixture of these
makes the pig grow strong and fat
ten at the same time and produces a
pork of superior quality. 1t is fine
grained, firm and sweet favored.
The market recognizes this SUPERIOR
ty and is willing to pay extra for it.
Were we able to raise large amount
of such pork we could sell it for a
cent and a half a pound above the
market prices.-Vermont Experiment
Station.

The Soldiers Home,

Since November 1. ! 0 new members
have been admitted to the Vermont
Soldiers Home, making a member
ship of 81. Five more are expected
before December l.
Capt. E. Smith, wife and daughter,
eommandant of the New Hampshire
soldiers at Tilton, N. H., were the
guests of Superintendent Coffey at
the Soldieres' Home during the past
week. Capt. Smith is a veteran of
the LIST N. H. cavalry and has a good
war record and is making a popular
and efficient superintendent of the
New Hampshire Soldiers Home.
The veterans of the home are tax
ing much interest in having Judge
Hugh Henry of Chester, president of
the Vermont Soldiers Home elected
as the next department commander.
He has always taken a great interest
and pride in the home and worked
hard for it's success.

Cavalry Reunion.

One OF the interesting happenings
OF last week was the reunion of the
| first Vermont Cavalry Veterans.
The business meeting held in the
parlors of the Memphremagog House
was presided over by Col. c. D. Gates
OF Cambridge; his successor, chosen
Tor the ensuing year, was Comrade
f. ID. Holdridge of Irasburgh. The
address was given in the G. A. R.
hall, by Gen. W. W. Henry of Burling-
ton.
The banquet commencing at 9 o.
clock was served at the Memphrema.,
COG House.
The generals paper wildly describ-
ed the principal features of Grants
movements from Cold Harbor to Ce-
dar Creek and greatly pleased all
who heard it.
The banquet was fine and the sto-
RES and remarks that followed we're
unusually good.
All agreed that the reunion was a
success, one long to be remembered,
and those present could but regret
that the absent ones had missed such
a rare treat. 1t was the thirtieth an
ni~ere6ry of the regiment s 1uusteriu
to service, which fact gave zest to
the enjoyment. From the nature of
the case it was an occasion for re-
touching the comradship and soldier
~ love, that exists among the old
boys.
Long may they live to renew their
fellowship and goodwill, that comes
from the war experiences of Iongago.

wives and Husbands Names

The practice of the wife assuming
her husbands name at marriage, ac-
cording to DR.. Brewer, originated
from Roman custom and became a
common custom after the Roman oc-
cupation. Thus Julia and Octavia,
married to POmpey and Cicero, were
called by the Romans Julia of Pom
pey, Octavi of Cicero; and in later
times married women in most Euro
pean countries signed their names in
the same manner, but omitted the of.
Against this view it may be mention
ed that during the sixteenth, and at
the beginning of the seventeenth CEN
fury, the usage seems doubtful, since
we find Catherine Parr so signing
herself after she had been twice mar
rled; and we always hear of Lady
Jane Grey mot Dudley. Some per-
sons think that the custom origina-
ted from the scriptural teaching that
husband and wife are one. This was
the rule of law so far back as Brae-
ton; and it was decided in the case of
Bon VS.. Smith, in the reign of Eliza
beth. that a woman by marriage
loses her former name Other husband

National Defense.

The annual report of the secretary
of war shows that under Mr.. Proc,
tors direction that department has
made satisfactory progress. The
changes in regulations so that a dis
charge can be obtained after three
years of service, and the other meas
ures adopted for the Improvement of
the soldiers condition have reduced
the assertions to the lowest percent
age the army has ever known. Some
progress has been made toward pro.
viding coast defense Notifications at
New York, Boston, San Francisco.
Hampton Roads and Washington.
The two appropriations of 100000
each made by the last Congress for
the purchase of sites will be expended
during the next five months, but
more will be needed to carry out the
departments plans. The secretary
recommends annual appropriations
of 100000 until all the sites desired
for Notifications have been obtained.
Good progress has been made to-
ward providing batteries for the diff
ferent notifications. The report
shows that the army is in good con-
dltIon and that under the wise policy
OF the administration and the liberal
appropriations of the last Congress
the long-desired coast defences are in
q fair way to become established
facts. Secretary Proctor has proved
the right man in the right place

The State Fish Hatchery,
FISH COMMISSIONER WARREN TELLS
WHAT HAS BEEN DONE ATROXRTRy

FISH COMMISSIONER WARREN TELLS
WHAT HAS BEEN DONE AT ROXBURY.
John W. Titcomb of Rutland, the
enterprising and efficient secretary of
the State Fish and Game league, re-
Gently received from Charles G.. War
rem OF Waterbury, one of the State
fish commissioners in charge of the
hatchery at RoXbury, the following
letter which states in Il brief way
what the commission has done in the
way Of putting the institution on "a
working basis. The land was given
the State by Z. n Spaulding and it
has an ineXhaustible supply of the
finest spring water. The commission
er says that we have erected a build
ing SO feet long by % feet wide,
painted outside and inside, a small
office and a work room at one end,
the balance being devoted to the
hatchery proper, andis supplied with
Matching trOughs and trays sufficient
to handle 10000 OOeggs The water
from the main spring is conducted in
a three-inch pipe some 500 feet to the
hatchery. We were obliged to do this
in order to have the hatchery troughs
set high enough to admit of working
over them with ease. We have an
abundance ofsplendid water, and now
we do not utilize more than one quar-
ter of the main spring and have sew
eral more that can be piped in with
out a very large expense; also the
right to lay a six inch pipe to aspiring
brook near by. Col Mcdonald and
Col. Hodge, on their visit there, were
pleased with the location and said
there were very few that would equal
it. 1t is also very easy of access, one
and One-fourth miles south of Rox- !
bury depot and within 100 feet of the |
Central Vermont railroad on the east |
side, and can easily be seen from the |
cars. In deciding how we should i'm
prove the property, two ways pre-
sented themselves. One was to put |
as little money into the Improvement |
as possible and buy as many eggs as
we could from the balance of the ap-
preparation; the other was to erect,
as far as our finances would admit.
a plant that would be the most use
to the State in the years to come,
and we decided to adopt this plan.
Of course our available cash to pur-
chase eggs with this year will be linn
tied for that reason, but we shall do
all in our power in this respect and
have arranged for all the eggs we
IAN pay for. In our improvements
we have commenced on some ponds
and have something over 1000 small
trout in them, which another year,
With the additions we shall make,
will put US in a position where we
,an commence to take eggs ourselves.
Jol. Mcdonald will furnish US what
he can spare this year, and also next
pring some 5000 orso yearling trout
% grow up at the hatchery to be
lsed for breeders. We have ample

Screennlaking.

In screen making il is good idea TO
secure your frame first, or at least in
planning for it TO make the panels to
be mounted of size that will fit a
frame to be found in the market. Fail
ing to do this, one has often TO nearly
double the expense by having a frame
made to order, and perhaps to spoil
her work by cutting down the panels.
The frame of the screen and the sub
iect treated must be considered as care
fully with its relation 10 the room ms
any other piece of furniture.
For instance "A rocco frame in gold
and white with Vatican figures and

It's place would properly be in n Louis

The Maple Sugar Ro,,n+v

According to the official informa-
ton the applications for license to
manufacture maple sugar under the
provisions of the act of October 1
1890, will fall short of the estimate
made prior to the passage of the act.
Congressman Grout in a speech at
the time, estimates the number of
producers of maple sugar in the Unit
ed States at 10000. The number of
licenses granted all told amounts to
only ALSO. distributed as follows
Vermont 2,517, New York S57. Ohio
224, Pennsylvania 1913, New Hamp-
shire lao, Maryland SO, Michigan 81,
Illinois %, West Virginia Is, Massa-
chusetts ID, Minnesota 5, Iowa 3.
and Maine 2. From this it will be
observed that only about one-fifth of
the producers have applied, and of
these a little more than three-fiftbs
are from Vermont. 1t is safe to pre-
dict that when the provisions of the
law are better understood MANY more
will avail themselves of the benefits
