MORE PARIS GREEN.
Seven Piles of tho Poison Found in Mayor
 Bratnard Pasture.

hfntnhrd fhsture.
 The Hartford courant says: There has evidently been some bad business carried on with Paris green in the pas ture lots in the south part of the cit, in the neighborhood of Vernon anc Broad streets. Monday afternoon Mrs Percy Buck of Lincoln street and hei two children and two children of T Spencer. conductor of a blue car. were going from zion's Hill cemetery across Mayor Brainard's lot west of Broad street and south of the old ball grounds when they found two small piles oi white powder. They carried the stun home and yesterday Mrs. Foster re- ported the find to John E. Borgeman gardener for Mayor Brainard. He made investigation and found seven oi these piles of powder. which on investi' gation proved to be Paris green. There was about tablespoonful in each pile four of which were under a tree. In the mayors lot were pastured valua- ble COW belonging to Rodney Dennis a calf belonging to the mayor and two cows belonging to other parties. The powder was buried and Dr. Noah Cres. sy will be asked to investigate the mat ter to-day. There has been no sick ness observed among any of the COWS In the mayors lot. One pile of the poison appeared as if some had been eaten.
 In the pasture of John Allen, next to that of General J. P. Harbison on Yer non street, there was discovered yes terday Paris green in small quantity. Dr. Greasy inspected the lot and found that the poison had. been scattered about in way to make 1t appear the most off-hand unintentional piece of work possible. There were no animals in the pasture and no harm came from this particular piece of diabolical mis- chief.
 Dr. Greasy visited the sick COWS of General John Harbison and Hugh liar bison last evening and found them inn proved in condition and thinks they will survive their poison eating expe- rience.

 "The best library is that which is the most readily accessible to the stu dent. The art of reading to good pur- pose is only gained by practice. The cardinal rule in library administra- tion is to give every student. as free access as possible to the shelves.

CHAPTER XII.

When Gwen was dressing for her
wedding, 1t never somehow struck her
mother to 20 to her room, and Gwen
had herself given an absolute com
mand that no one should ask her TO do
so. She made no remark at I'LL on the
subject when she did not come, but
she insisted on going to church in the
carriage with Mrs. Fellowes.
1t was useless TO oppose her, she was
like adamant on this point, which set
Dacre swearing like mad. She was
white and silent as they drove Oft.
Mrs. Fellowes was silent 100, and
rather white, but she darent show any
feeling: they were on the brink of n
general upheayal, and her whole ener-
~ must be concentrated to ward 1t OF.
Gwen felt her situation with such
cruel intensity, that even to herself she
had to pretend TO q total stony indif-
ference, but when they got 20 the
gates she sighed and stirred softly and
put out her hand with unaccustomed
usefulness and laid 1t on Mrs. Eel

Fellowes rubbed 1t gently between

FEED FOR STOCK.

1t is very important that feed should
be ground for young stock whose teeth
are not sufficiently developed to mas.
ticate the grains and foods properly.
In some cases older animals with
good teeth are benefited by grinding
the food for them. They get into the
habit of eating so rapidly that half
the grain enters their stomachs whole,
and the outer tough covering Of oats,
barley, corn and other grains cannot
be destroyed by the strong acids of the
stomach. Not only Is the grain vast
ed without the animals receiving any
direct benefit from 1t, but the stomach
IL frequently injured by the whole
grains passing through. Indigestion
and flatuleney very often owe their
cause entirely to this.
In series of experiments carefully
made, 1t was found that in all cases
the animal derived more nutritive
benefit from ground grain than from
whole grain. The simple crushing Of
the grain is sufficient Even though
the animals swallow ii without mas
tication, the Juices of the stomach will
enter into it and prepare 1t for easy
assimilation. The stock raiser finds
that his grain goes further by grind
Ing or crushing the feed than when
fed whole.
Hard working horses that are allow
ed only a short rest In the middle OF
the day need ground food and not
whole grain. They are tired then, and
the stomach Is often unable to handle
properly the food put into It. Ere
quently the animals are worked again
before the stomach can possibly digest
half the whole grains swallowed. BY
grinding the grain and mixing little
water with 1t, the horses can very
easily digest the feed, and they will
get direct benefit from the food within
very short time. Horses fed In the
middle Of tDe day with crushed and
moistened grains will be In better con-
dition at night than those fed whole
grains.
Il Is not difficult matter to grind
feed in these days. Small hand ma
chimes come for the purpose. but those
that turn by horse power are better.
The latter are needed on very large
stock farms or where a number OF
farmers cooperate to get their feed
ground. The amount saved will more
than pay for the extra labor and the

FALL MATURING.


Manure applied In the fall to the sur
face, either of plowed or grass land,
will, by the action of the frost and
rain, become so thoroughly pulyerized
and distributed through the soil that
1t acts more quickly, and is In better
condition for plants to assimilate than
the same manure would he IL applied
III the spring.
The loss from evaporation and drain
age unless the surface Is very steep
will probably be much less than the
loss resulting from fermentation II the
manure is allowed to accumulate ~
cellars or the washing IL left in open
yards.
On most soils and for most crops,
surface application is better than
blowing In. and especially IL manure
Is applied In the fall, but in any case
except for manure that is 80 course
that 1t cannot be mixed with the SOL

CHAPTER XXII,.

When the two drove away on the
first stage OF their experiment, Mr..
and Mrs. Waring, the Rector and Mrs.
Fellowes, Dacre and few others
stood watching them from the great
stone steps of the hall.
Mrs. Fellowes was rejecting with
mixed feelings on Ovens goodbye to
her mother, which by chance she had
witnessed. The girl had already, in
the face of every one, hidden her a
quiet and emotionless farewell but
just at the last she had swept round
suddenly, as if she were driven, and
had caught the little daZed creature
a deal too young to be her mother
in her arms, and had given her an i'm
perative hug of the volcanic order.
As 1t was first experience, no one
could blame the little woman from
shrinking visibly from it, and, when it
was over, for escaping with sigh
to the side of her husband, and slip
ping her hand into his with the air
of one who has escaped danger.
Gwen allowed one flash of angry pain
to shoot from her eyes, then she walk
ed grandly out of the house with her
hand quite properly on her fathers
arm, which Dacre took good care
to have In readiness.
"Dacre!" said Mrs. Fellowes, as soon
as they were we'll off, Eve must get
rid of these people. l am sure we have
all done our duty by them, and your
father and mother have, very obyi-
ously, had enough of them"

In next to no time they had cleared
the field, and Mr.. and Mrs. Fellowes
were Just about to say goodbye and
to carry Dacre OF to dinner. when to
their amazement after hurried con-
sultation Mr.. and Mrs. Waring begged
them to stay. and drew them into the
library. utterly ignoring the furious

swearing. to the stables, where he
wandered disconsolately scathing the

Fall planting of potatoes is certainly
worthy of careful experiment. for the
results so far in isolated cases seem
to warrant one in believing that 1t is
an improvement over the old method.
The earlier that we can get the early
crop of potatoes into market the more
we are sure to realize from them. BY
planting the seed in October we get
the potatoes into market by the sec
ond week in July, and in good condi-
ton too, not half grown and green.
Certainly there Is some risk to run
unless the soil is very well drained.
The chief danger comes not from the
freezing weather of winter, but from
the wet. thawing days of very early
spring. The excessive amount of water
in the soil then will rot the potatoes
unless the land is perfectly drained
50 that most of the water will be ear
ried away.
There is another question that de-
mands more experiment with before
the operation of fall planting can be
carried on extensively. In the few
experiments that | have seen winter
mulch of straw some six inches in
depth was placed over the ground late
in the fall, and left there until spring,
On extensive potato fields this would
be quite serious drawback. The
question is whether this mulch is
really necessary SO far | know of no
one who has tried October planting
without using the mulch. On the other
hand, however. nearly every farmer
has found stray potato vines coming
up on all fields in the spring of the
year. These potato sets have remain
ed in the ground all winter without
the mulch, and they have proved just
as hardy as if protected. More light
on this subject is needed.
The methods of planting fall pota-
toes are very simple. The land is
plowed and prepared early in October,
after most OF the harvesting is fin
ished, and the seed is planted the same
as in the spring. Then the ground is
covered with a thick mulch. and held
in position so that the wind cannot
blow it away. Nothing more is re-
quired of the crop until early spring.
The mulch is then removed. and as the
potatoes come up they are cultivated
and treated the same as spring planted
tubers. BY this method we get the
potatoes earlier; they reach maturity
before the early summer drought; and
they are planted at season when
there is much less farm work to do
than in the spring. Two things APP
parently are very essential One is
land that is perfectly drained.
doubt if good crop would be raised
in this way on thick, heavy soil that
had not been drained. The other
thing necessary is a winter mulch.
If the latter can be dispensed with
the method will prove far mere profit
able to large growers than 1t will at
present.-W. Il. Farmer, in American
Cultivator.
