form, all that is taken from it. His
idea is that the most practical crop in
Vermont is grass, and cut early it is
the best food for the dairy cow con.
sidering its cost; that nothing has
been so valuable an aid to his farm
work as the study he has made of
how best to make grass grow on
pasture and meadow and how to use
it in keeping stock. A good second
is corn as it begins to scar, fed dry or
in-siloed ears and stover together. An
equally good feed is oats cut as soon
as headed, and cured as hay.
He thinks the farmers should raise
those crops, combination of which
constitutes a complete ration for the
dairy cow, as such folders are also
good rations for other kinds of stock
In doing this, much mill feed can be
avoided and thousands of dollars
saved annually.
The buildings are the home dwell
ing, an ancient two-story house, one
of the first built in Derby, modernized
and made a pleasant living place; a
tenement dwelling in the same yard,
occupied by hired help; a horse barn
30x50, another 30x40; barn 3Ox5O,
another 40x130, another 40x60; a
tool house 20x90; a scalea and wagon
house 30X60; carriage and wood
house 2Ox60 and dairy, wagon and
ice house 22x90.
The dairy house is equipped with
steam power and supplied with
creamery appliances as complete as
any creamery for making butter.
This establishment has made and put
upon the market in year $4,000
pounds of butter from the Clydeside
dairy.
The tillage land lies in beautiful
level fields to the east OF the buildings
and from many an acre of it in many
a season has been taken at two har-
vestings five tons of early cut hay.
When an acre is suspected of yielding
less than two and one-half tons, it is
treated to the plow.
From six to ten or more men, &C.
cording to the season, are employed
at Clydeside, and when at home,
Major Grout associates himself with
these men, directing and assisting in
the different kinds of work. He rises
at FIVE in the morning and is occupied
the day long about something con.
nected with his farm property.
Now have told you briefly about
Josiah Grout as farmer and must
leave the reader at his leisure to sup
ply many interesting features of his
farm and the doing thereon. He has
devoted his best efforts for fourteen
years to building up his Clydeside
farm home. He is one of the best in.
formed and most practical farmers in
the state, and really takes more pride
in his farm and its belongings than
in anything he has done or can do OF
a more public character. tits not the
object of this writing to portray him
as lawyer, legislator, an upright
public servant, gifted speaker or a
brave, faithful soldier, but simply as
plain, practical farmer as he is at
home in every day affairs where all
his neighbors appreciate his con
scientious ways, his simple habits and
honest methods.

fall. Once persuade the Arabs that
the Sultan is not the rightiul Caliph
OF Islam, and the empire will be ire
trievably rent asunder.
The leader Of the Young Turkey"
party is capable and aggressive
man. He is none other than Murad
Bey, formerly editor Ct the most i'm
portant newspaper in Turkey and
professor Of history in the Imperial
College at Constantinople. In this
latter capacity he was for years the
preceptor of all the best young theo-
logians, doctors and lawyers, who
are now just starting in professional
life, and who are sure to attach great
weight to the utterances of their for
mer teacher. He might now have
been Grand Vizier of the empire, for
that office was offered to him and
urged upon him by the Sultan per-
sonally. Instead of accepting it, he
decided to leave Turkey and begin a
campaign for revolution. And that
is what he is doing now.
Murad went from Constantinople
to Cairo for this enterprise. 1t was
necessary that he remain in Maho-
metan land, of course, if he wanted
to command the confidence and sup
port of Mahometans. Hebegan then
the publication of newspaper, the
"Mizan," which is devoted to preach
ing revolution throughout Islam.
The Turkish government was angered
at his audacity, and sent to have him
arrested and punished. The Egyptian
government, under British influence,
declined to give him up. The Sultan's
suzerainty over Egypt was defed.
AID so Murad remains in safety at
Cairo, publishing his seditious sheet,
and contriving to smuggle copies of
it even into the YiIdiz palace itself.
There is no doubt that it is having
much influence, especially in Egypt,
Tripoli and Arabia, and is preparing
millions of Mahometans to revolt
openly against the authority of the
present Commander of the Faithful.
A wel-informed and cautious cor
respondent, writing from Cairo to
"The London Standard, ventures to
prophesy that, if the second day of
Bairam passes without incident, the
second day of September next will see
Turkish revolution openly organ
lied. This view is encouraged by the
fact that the Turkish army in the
provinces is unquestionably disaffect-
ed and almost mutinous. Perhaps
even more account is to be made of

prompts the Egyptian expedition up
the Nile without regard to the wishes
ofEgypt's nominal suzerain. In other
ways, too, she shows her disregard,
not to say actual hostility, for the
Ottoman empire and its interests.
When the revolt comes, lift does come,
Great Britain will not fire gun or
speak word to put it down, nor will
she object to the use of Egypt as
base of operations for it. Amid such
circumstances the end of the Ottoman
empire may be nearer a hand than at
