Refugees OF the Flooded Dis
tricts of Arkansas Badly in
Want of Food,

New YORK, Mays2s.-special advices
to Bradstreet's from regions affected
more seriously by floods point to an ag-
gregate loss in five states of $32, 600, 900,
which includes damage to railway prop
erty, destruction of or damage to levees,
to farm buildings, machinery, live stock
and crops, as well as loss on other prop

ALFALFA BLOAT.
When Danger Is to Be Apprehendadl
from Alfalfa Pasturing. /

When Danger Is to BE Appreciated
from Alfalfa Pasturing.
have for some time been studying
the cause of bloat in cattle, the effect Of
eating green alfalfa or clover. I find
that the alfalfa or clover when green is
very heating, and when animals have
eaten a quantity of it they become very
thirsty, as it is very heating in the
stomach. The danger from the blcatia
then to be feared. If warm wate1
can be furnished no serious respltSSalSN&
to be apprehended, but if cold water5iA
taken into the stomach bloating Will
Immediately follow. d
If they fill themselves up in the evens
ing or fore part of the night on greed
clover or alfalfa, then in the morning
the cool dew OF frost or rain that they
swallowed with their feed has the SAND
effect as drinking cold water. Inclos4
two COWS or sheep in a green clover on
alfalfa pasture where there is no water$
and after they have filled themselveS
and become thirsty give one lukewarM
water and the other cold water, and
the one that drinks the ice water will
bloat and die in fifteen minutes. Ii
/ find also that the leaves of the planf
are more heating than the stems. Ther&
is no danger from feeding the plant
when it has age for two reasons; frsSs
animals then eat more of the stems; sed2
ond, at that time of the year the wateE
in the pools and bitches is more or les8
warm. There is no danger in feeding
the hay after it is cured or in letting
animals run on alfalfa pasture when =
is partly dry and green mixed. f
In handling alfalfa for hay many maxi
amistake. The practice of forcing growth
SO as to make four or five crops a year, il
wrong. It only adds water to it, not
strength, and it loses greatly by shrink
age both in the field and stack, anu
makes it little better than brown papeH
for feed. Animals have to eat from foul
to five pounds of water to get anything
out of the alfalfa hay cut so young, and
it causes horses to become weak in th&
kidneys. /
Alfalfa should not be cut until thd
blossoms begin to fall, then the pods bel
gin to form and the plant has nutriment
in it. When a man cuts his alfalfa four
OF more times a year to put it on the
market he Injuries himself and the bali
ance of the community, as it is without
substance Or fattening quality, and perl
son who buy the hay to feed to CATTLE
or work animals will not buy alfalfa
again, as they imagine all alfalfa hay ID
alike. Some parties, however, are un1
fortunate in having fields planted wherd
the ground is always moist. In such lo1
cations it will grow too rapidly, and will
be of no use but to pasture or feed hogd
OF milk stock, as it fills the place of sloI
very well.-W. E. Anderson in Stoclf
Grower.

Live Stock Points,

Have a tight roof to your coOps and
shut the chickens in when it rains.
Keep them there till the ground dries
off.
"A good sheep dip is made by sleeping
tobacco stems and leaves in hot water.
Some of the a~rsenical sheep dips of com-
merce are also very good.
"Wild, whooping cowboy ways do not
suit Sheep" says an experienced breeder.
A Texas paper says that the long
horned steer is now out of place in that
rapidly advancing state as much as the
old fashioned log court house would be.
The T. p. remarks, further: when
farmers can raise t%hree-gallon COWS they
are foolish to waste time and feed on
one-quart cows. When cattlemen can
raise 2,000-pound beeves they would be-
silly to give all their attention to 500
pound beeves."
When hogs are fed on corn, always
give them ashes, mixed in equal parts
with the salt you add to their rations.l
It is very important for keeping them il!
health.

Please remember the time of holding
the fair at Northfield on the grounds of

Thursday, Sept. 13, IA and Is, 1892. Bear
in mind too that fair is what the peo-
pie make it. Good officers, beautiful
grounds, commodious buildings and fine

sable il success is to be reached but with
out the people, without the products of
their labor and skill, without the highly
bred stock that throngs our rich valleys
and covers our green hills, the former
requisites are of little use and will soon
become worthless. To say the least, Dog
River Valley Fair Association ranks high

den, Northfield at an early date. Having
excluded from the grounds every annoy
ance, every gambling invention, strictly
prohibiting tine sale OF all intoxicating

A FAMILY REUNION.

We are pleased to note the fact that
all the living children of our late es-
teemed townsman, Dea. William B.
Chandler, have been spending week
together here at their old home. w.
w. Chandler and wife, of Chicago, ar
rived in West Randolph ednesday
p. m. last. He had been seriously i'll
since the first of May, being confined
to his room and bed for full three
months, during mos. of which time his
friends feared fatal result but re-
covering somewhat, early i'll August the
desire to revisit the scenes of his child
hood became so strong that he ventur-
ed to make the long journey from Chi
cago, arriving as stated. He reports
comparatively comfortable trip and
says he has gained strength since start
ing. He and his friends now hope for
ultimate full recovery. From here he
will go to "The Weirs" on Lake Win
nepesaukee, n. H., and stay with
friends there as long as may seem adj
visable. John A. Chandler and wife
of St. Paul, Mimi, also arrived in
town Wednesday last. Mrs. Reid Of
Thomasville, Ca, the only living
daughter, has been here for some
weeks. These are guests of Albert B.
Chandler of New York, at Mari-C Castle,
his summer residence in Randolph.
Frank II. Chandler and wife of
Brooklyn, N. Y, have also been re-
juvenating hereabouts for month or
more, while Henry H. Chandler occu-
pies the old homestead. These are all
the living children OF the original
"thirteen." The "boys" from the
West are especially enthusiastic over
the green hills and pleasant valleys of
Vermont, so strongly in contrast with
the widespread plains and treeless
prairies of their fertile country; and
all claim that these occasional reunions
are the chief charm and pleasure of
their later life, anticipated as the
Arab looks forward to the oasis in the
desert, and when passed, treasured in
and lived over and over again
in thought.
May all those now here live to re-
peat many times the experiences of the
last week and may they feel and
know how cordially Vermont welcomes
her returning sons and daughters who
went forth early to the battle of life in
other lands.
