The enormous annual waste Of corn
fodder can DO partly accounted for by
tho hard labor generally required 10 cut
and shock tho corn. Cutting corn is ono
Of the hardest jobs on tho farm, and In
many Of the principal corn regions there
IL usually scarcity Of labor available
for this purpose. Therefore says Tho
Farm Machinery, machine labor must
bo substituted for hard hand labor For
a number Of years inventors havo boon
ct work on machinery for cutting corn,
and manufacturers aro now turning out
corn huryostcrs that do very satisfactory
work With ono Of these latest improved
corn harvostors, drawn by o steady
horse, two mon can cut from 200 to 800
shocks Of corn day, and the cost Of
cutting an aero Of corn is loss than ono
fourth. that by the old. A greater ad.
vantage than the saving Of labor and rO-
ducing the cost is that tho work can DO
dono In shorter time. To secure tho full
food value Of corn fodder tho corn should
DO cut, like wheat just when IL IS ready.
II allowed to stand until it is too ripo
or frost bitton, thoro Is great loss Of
digostblo matter
Corn harvesting should proceed as
rapidly ~ wheat harvesting That tho
advantages Of corn harvostors arc appro.
ciatod Is nttcstod by their largo and
yearly increasing use Tho uso Of tho
present style will increase until invent.
ors produce % machine Of modern cost
that will cut and shock corn without
tho assistance OF hand labor nt all.
Corn fodder Is the most available sub.
stituto FOR hay on tho farm. Every aero
Of corn fodder saved for feeding ON tho
farm will release an aero Of hay for
market withwhcat so close to thocost
Of production, farmers are forced TO look
for q better ready money crop. This
year II Is good hay.

OVERDOSE OF MORPHINE.

Death of Warren l.. Biakesise, Who Ap-
 prared as PIaIntir In . Police Court
 Case Y.sterdsy.
 Warren l.. Blakeslee, aged 30 years. son of F. Warren Blakeslee of Chipman street. died at the residence of his uncle. Frederick TompkIns. 9 Plank road, at 5 o'clock this morning from an overdose of morphine.
 The deceased was we'll known Water bury man and was considered one of the most sklliful professional nurses m the city He studied at Bellevue college and some time ago. shortly after his graduation from that institution. accompanied Dr Lambert. a New York physician. on tour through Europe. It was while on this trip that he contracted the sickness which afterwards made him a physical wreck. His patient and himself were roominG together at a hotel in Paris and one morning when Mir Blakeslee awoke he found that his companion was lead. having passed away some time during the night Mir Blakeslee never re- covered from the shock. The remains of the dead physician were conveyed back | tn America During the voyage Mir | Blakeslee was taken sick with pneumonia snd on his arrival home found it neces- Sary to enter a hospital for treatment l Since that time he has been subject to ex- treme nervousness and fits of melaneholia, and when attacked with one of those spells. it iS said. he was accustomed to take little morphine and the habit from small beginnings became so strong that the cure proved much worse than the dis etse and he recently became n total wreck from its use.
 For the last few days Blakeslee had been in a shocking condition and walked around town apparently like man under the influence ot hquor. Last night his condition became so critical that hi, friends called in Doctors Crane and Castle but medical aid could not stay the ravage' ot the fatal drug and he died al ] o'clocl this morning. Medical Examiner Axtell, was summoned and pronounced death du, to an accidental overdose of morphine Resides hls father and mother the de ceased leaves brother and sister.
 \ peculiar incident in connection witl the mans untimtly end is that he was il he police court yesterday as complainan against young man named Johr McCabe for assault. BlAkeslee wen into an East Main street silool Saturday night and on entering McCab asked him Ii it were true that he had sai, that h. McCabe. had stolen S75 from him

 tries.
 Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 Your editorial calling upon the board of trade 10 do something pleased me. al. though as member ot that body l must take exceptions to some of the statements made My idea is that it is better for the board of trade to encourage the industries We already have in Waterbury and induce the manufacturers to invest their surplus money at home. rather than to make bids or O1er tlatterlng inducements to concerns now doing business elsewhere to pull up stakes and come to Waterbury.
 As a rule. manufacturing concern that k anxious to move k not prosperous and takes this step in the hope of recognizing and securing new capital, Conservative mru do not care to invest their money in such enterprises and the board of trade acts wisely in not adopting boom methods. which sooner or later must collapse. AG"in. do not think it would be wise for Waterbury to offer inducements to con- c,rns now doing business Tn neighboring places to locate here Ii the board of trade adopted such methods the law of re- tsliHtIon would be brought into play other places would bid for some of Waterbury's $ industries and feeling of unrest and dis satisfaction would be the result. If any new industry desires to locate in Water bury and it is worthy. then. say. the board of trade and the moueyed men of the town ought to do something and do it quick. but to spend money in bolstering ! up "nd bridging to Waterbury concerns ! doing d losing business in other places is unwise.
 You refer to tn" Eagle Bic, cle Co of rorrlngton as an industry that Waterbury might have had. Did you know that the projectors of that scheme would not locate in Waterbury for the reason that while they asked Waterbury men to furnish cap itAl they wanted to hold a majority of the stock themselves. Under the terms they offered the three enterprising young men aft starting in business with Waterbury money could il they desired, remove the business to Kalamazoo. That is why the Waterbury capitalists refused to buy the l stock.
 As said at the beginning I am pleased at the tone of your editorial. because al though it Is a little too severe on the board of trade It will or ought to stimulate the members to greater efforts for the city s good. \ little pricking up of thIs kind now and then is a good tonic.

AFTER TEN DAYS.
Wires Repaired on the New England
 Road Western Division.

Wires Repaired the New England
 Road Western Division.
 After ten days of dIlligent work in re- pairing the wires torn down by the recent st ,rm they were put in condition so that the train dispatchers on the western divi- sion of the New England road could be brought back to their old quarters in East Hartford at 6 o'clock last night During the first six days after the storm it was necessary to operate the division from Plainville. as communication with local points could not be established east of that point. As the wires were repaired the dispatcherS were moved to Hartford. where the work was carried on until last evening. sixteen linemen from Boston and about n dozen men from New York and New Haven were employed in restring- ing the wires. Notwithstanding the crippled condition of things the record for handling east bound loads on the division was broken last Saturday. when BPS loaded cars were moved during the twenty four hours. This exceeds the work of any pre- >ious day by about sixteen cars.

 CIty.
 NAUGArCCK. Nov l5-A matter that should receive the attention of our board of burgesses in the early future. is the fit- ting up in connection with the chief of police office. n couple or more of cages to contne prisoners who come under the chiefs charges more especially wbere parties are brought in insane. needing watching to prevent them from injurIng themselves. The tramp room by removing the brick built into a doorway would fur nish just what is needed. after placing cages in same. and would be directly under the eye of officers at headquarters. There has been one suicide and one attempt of another in the present. pen or lookup. to which some six or more coDstables have keys besides the regular police As the borough holds the chief responsible for prisoners arrested by his men. the proper facilities should be given him to keep them safe without being interfered with. The fair of St Francis church will open tomorrow night at the opera house. A very large number of tickets admitting the whole ten nights have already been sold at one dollar each. Door tickets will also be sold at l5 cents each. The firemen's ball on Thanksgiving eve will cause the fair to close the evening before.
 The NJ. E. church will close their festival at the opera house tonight,
 Some of our lady residents are spending to-day at the horse exhibit in New York City.
 If the bride and groom of yesterday al ways remain as happy as the couple of hundred assembled at the depot to see them of. seemed to be. their lot will be a happy one indeed.
 We omitted to mention yesterday an in- teresting meeting of the woman's study club on Tuesday. Several papers were lead on different subjects.
