Hammock Pond is southeast of Lake

Miss Maud Barrett, a maiden fair
with dark brown hair, whose star lit
orbs electrified the heard of Mr.. Albert
Boehm, though this tyrant man was
old enough to be the father of this
lovely maiden who stole Ai's hearG
away. He told to her his tale of love
so straight and honest that after
mature reflection, facinating Maud
said she would unite her fortune with
his. She confided this love lorn case
to her parents, who strenuously OBJ

reason than that the proposed groom's
religious beliefs were those of the
Mother church, while Miss Barrett's

1t was so agreed, but as Mr.. Boehm
was forbidden on the Barrett premi-
ses, the services of Jim Sellers were
engaged, who, at the midnight hour,
stealthy appeared al the Barrett home,
seized his fair @ard in one arm and
her hatbox in the other, deposited her
in his buggy and fairly flew with her to

reaching from among the farms,
that their products may be easily
and cheaply transported. 1t now

The people of outof the-way towns
must necessarily be poor in purse
and discouraged IN heart, for it is
plod year after year and nothing to
show. Almost any person of judg-
ment can see how great an improve
ment can be made; but it costs
money and labor. Who shall COM
mence this great undertaking One
thing is sure-the towns will not
they are too poor, and, withal, too
shiftless for such an undertaking
alone.
Such a job as this is great; but it
can be accomplished if undertaken in
the right way. The whole state,
through its legislature, must take it
in hand, carry it through and be
profted thereby. Surely, such an
Improvement will increase property

DIGEsTIBuITY OF ENsILA GE.

Some experiments were made re-
Gently by the Pennsylvania expert
mental station to show the compar-
alive digestibility OF ensilage as
affected by. fermentation. 1t was
found that the crude fibre was made
more digestible; but this was more
than offset by serious losses of the
more valuable starch and albumen
by destruction, and by decrease in
digestibilitv. Albumenoids are es-
peciallv affected by fermentation,
and the kinds of plants which con-
tain most albumenoids are there
fore not fitted for preservation by
ensilaging. This result is, we think,
in accordance with general practical
experience. Corn is the great ensiI-
age plant. Glover is very hard to
save in good condition, as its strong
tendency is to a violent fermenta-
ton because of its albuminous and
heterogeneous constituents. There is
really no necessity in our climate for
ensilaging clover. By putting the
cut clover in cock and keeping it
under cover of hay caps it can be
made into hay with very little loss
OF nutritive value. IF it is also more
digestible than when put in the silo
the argument against ensilaging
clover is made stronger.

GOPHER THEM.

The following receipt for the de-
struction of gophers and squirrels
has been highly recommended {:
Take a fve-gallon can, put a stick
of phosphorus with a little cold
water in the bottom of it. Pour in
hot-not boiling-water, just hot
enough to melt the phosphorus
gradually. Add two pounds of SUI
gar and stir. Then add corn meal
and -four in equal quantities to make
a thick batter Then stir in whole
wheat until the batter is quite stiff.
Pour in at the same time fifteen or
twenty drops of rhodium. The
wheat will absorb all the water and
the mass will become hard. For
use chip off small pieces to the size
of hickory nut and place it in the
runs"

TIE rRorrING OK.

Next to the elephant in general
usefulness we should be inclined to
place the "trotting OK" of India.
"All Indian oxen can be taught to
trot," says Mr.. Lockwood Kipling.
THE sloping quarter and straight
hook may possibly account for some
thing in their more horselike gait.
One of the first things to strike a
stranger is the hurrying OK" The
rekla, a light two-wheeled cart
drawn by pair of oxen, light,
speedy and convenient, is the hanson
cab of Bombay.
All through the Mahratta country
the OK is the common draught
animal, differing in speed and size
according to the work for which it
is required. Cattle of the Nagore
breed, used by rich men to draw
their state carriages, used to be
kept near Delhi for carrying
dispatches.
Mr.. Youatt was informed that
they would travel with soldier on
their backs Is or 16 miles in the day
a the six miles an hour.
The Nagore cattle have none OF
the awkward swinging motions Of
the legs of the English cow. They
| bring their hind legs under them in
as straight line as horse. They
are very active" continues Mr.

ORGANIZE YOUR OWN CREAM
ERIES.

0. c. Gregg, superintendent of
farmers institutes for Minnesota,
gives farmers this advice about
building creameries: when desir-
Gus of having a creamery in your
neighborhood, the proper way to do
is to organize yourselves into a
stock company and in no case let
strangers and possibly interested
outside parties organize you. Agents
of some creamery supply houses are
constantly going through the coun-
try offering to work up a creamery
company in any neighborhood, soil
citing the stock and getting out the
articles Of incorporation, building
the creamery and equipping it and
tuning it over to an association OF
farmers at given price. This of
course seems like very nice way as
it relieves the memb of the creamery
associa ton of all the preliminary
work and the organiza ton of the
creamery, but you can rest assured
no one is going to do this work for
nothing and no outside parties can
do it so cheaply and effectively as
you can do it yourselves. When any
man comes along offering to organ
ize a creamery company, solicit the
stock, draw the papers, build the
building and equip it, turning over
to you a ready built creamery and
taking all the work of organiza ton
| off your hands, look with suspicion
on the project. He isn't working for
his health, butts doubtless drawing a
big salary to do work you can just
as well do yourselves. No outside
company can go into a neighbour
hood and spend the time necessary
to work up a company, build and
equip a creamery, pay salaries,
travelling expenses and hotel board
for nothing, and they usually get a
good large profit on top of the ex.
penses made. If you want a cream
cry in your neighborhood, the proper
way is to form your own organiza
ton"
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1894-03-29

States cavalry officers can appre-
ciate more than those of any army,
that these are not horses that can
be turned out to take care of them
selves, like the Indians mustang or
the rough Cossack pony of the
steppes.
All the young horses are carefully
rubbed clean and inspected every
day, the brush and curry-comb being
used in cleaning. During this pro-
cess the young colts are tied, but
when three or four years old they
stand quietly enough and enjoy it.
In order to insure docility on the
part OF these animals it is made a
rule that each day the colts are to
be stroked with the hand, their feet
raised-in other words, treated in
such a way as to make them
familiar with their future masters.
1t would seem as though the rich
succulent grass produced by the
pastures would be enough food for
these young animals, but the major
said that they did better when they
received two portions of oats day,
once in the morning and again at
noon, but never at night.
One evening the major took US to
see the horses called home from the
pasture. They came in troops OF
hundreds, and gathered in large en-
closures facing the stables, or rather
the large spaces in which they all
spent the night in common, ia
groups of one hundred or less. These
paddocks were formed by planting
railway sleepers on end at short
intervals, connected by gas-pipes-a
very simple and economical arrange
ment. Here the young horses are
exercised in the winter when it
would be unsuitable to let them out
in the snow. They go round and
round in a ring under the eye of the
groom.
On the occasion of our visit l
noticed that the main body divided
itself according to color-the blacks
going to one corner, the browns to
another, the bays to a third; of
whites or gravs | saw no specimens.
Here and there would be one who
had mistaken his corner, or was
seeking forbidden company out of
deviltry. The keeper had no diff
fculty in bringing him to his right
senses, however, by simply calling
his name and waving his hand in the
direction of the corner to which he
belonged. The colt thus addressed
invariably leaped out from the
corner in which he was an intruder,
and galloped straight to the corner
whose color matched his. This we
saw done many times over, and it
never failed.-[From Emperor Will
liam's Stud-Farm and Hunting
Forest" by Poultney Bigelow, in
Harper's Magazine for April.
