One of the prisoners locked up in a

Spunky Speonk.

People of Speonk insist on having
their name. 1t is theirs and they have
the right to 1t. 1t may not be pretty,
but it is Indian, it is historic, it is
quaint, it is uncommon, it is not likely
to be confused with other places, 1t has
O character of its own. Yet small COM
pany of misguided persons wish to call
It by the absurd name of Remsenburg.
This change is intended in honor of a
man who gave church to the village.
He was one Of several New Workers. who
took up summer residences in that
place and who, the natives say, have
been corrupting the morals and de-
stroying the sweet simplicity of the
district with their dress and their airs
and their turnouts. They rightly ask
If the village is not more than one
church thereof, the public more than
the summer boarders? 1t is even so.
and IL the sturdy farmers keep up the
fight they will keep their good old
name. Speonk let it be, as q lesson to
dudes. rs q warning to cyclists and peo-
pie who monkey with geography. The
land is full of burgs and villes and
towns-Smithburgs, Rumvilles and jay
towns-and it is truly solace to find a
village that does not belong in this
category of tiresome vapidities. Speonk

The NUMBER THREE.

Some Curious SupcrstitiOns Regard
ing 1t in the Popular Mind. {.
There is superstitious regard for the
number three in the popular mind, and
the third repetition of anything is gen.
orally looked upon as crisis. Thus an
article may twice be lost and recovered
but the third time that it is lost it Is
gone for good. Twice n man may pass
through some great danger in safety,
but the third time he loses his life II,
however, the mystic third can be sue
cessfully passed all is well. Three was
called by Pythagoras the perfect num-
Der and we frequently find its use SYM
bolical of deity. Thus we might men
ton the trident Of Neptune, the tree
forked lightning of Jove and the three
headed dog of Pluto. The idea of trinity
is not confined to Christianity, but &C.
ours in several religions.
In mythology also we find three fates'
three furies and three graces, and, COM
ing nearer to our own times, Shakes
peare introduces his three witches. In
public house signs three seems to play
an important part, for we frequently
meet with Three Cups" Three Jolly
Sailors" "Three Bells, " Three Tuns, "
"Three Feathers"-in fact, the number
of almost anything of which a fertile i'm
agination can conceive q trio. In
nursery rhymes and tales this number
Is not unknown, and If we look back TO
the days of our childhood most OF us
will call to mind the three wise men
of Gotham who took sea voyage in q
bowl, not to mention the three blind
mice that had their tails cut off by the
farmers wife. Perhaps there Is some
occult power in the number which gov
ems the division of novels into three
volumes and induces doctors to order
their medicine to be taken thrice daily.
It is said that some tribes of savages
cannot count beyond three. But, nl-
though they may have no words to ex-
press higher numbers, perhaps we
should be scarcely justified in assum-
ing that they are incapable OF uppreciat-
ing the value OF the latter.-N. Y. Ad-

FEEDING MILK COWS.

Liberal Rations Are Necessary 20 Sc
cure Satisfactory Results.
The character of the feed determines
to very considerable extent the guam
tity ard quality of the milk and but
ter from good cow. An extra yield OF
butter will naturally follow the use
OF richer ration, But this is not al
ways the case with a common cow. So
there Is something in the breed as well
as in the feed.
The dairyman who is seeking the best
results ut the lowest cost should salts
fly himself as to what are the best kinds
of feed, considering the cost, that will
produce the most and the best milks.
Generally combination of feeding
materials will give the bestresults. as
certain elements wanting in some food
will be supplied by others. Succulent
food increases the flow of milk, but does
not materially increase the proportion
Of water in 1t. Still, feed often does
make a change in the dry substance OF
the milk.
A ration rich in albuminoids will
make a richer milk, and the relative
proportions of fat and casein are
changed to very considerable extent
by a change in the ration. Another
point that is we'll settled is that GER
tain kinds of food will produce changes
in the composition of milk not indi-
Gated by chemical analysis. Succulent
food Is productive of the largest guam
tity of fat in the milk, and also has
the effect of causing the cream to sep
arate more readily from the milk and
the butter globules from the cream,
leaving less fat in the buttermirk.
For dry feed q combination OF four
parts Of wheat bran, two of cornmeal
and one of linseed oil makes one OF
the best. especially during the winter.
If any change is made in summer it
would be from corn to ground oats.
This, with good pasture, makes q COM
plete ration for mich cow during the
summer. When the pasturage cannot
be supplied, some good soiling crop
that can be cut off and fed green may
take its place. y
Liberal feeding is always necessary
with the dairy cow, as it is only the
surplus over and above what Is neces-
sary to sustain life end thrift that Is
used for milk. If the cow is kept UP to
her full capacity she must have oil the
appetizing, mills-producing food she
will consume. It Is only this kind Of
feeding that makes a good profit in
dairying. ST. Louis Republic.As,,s: s

Why the milk of the same cow on the

day to another I do not know. ] have
investigated the matter to the extent
of about 10000 tests with our COWS. L
find that in the same stable, with the
same feed, with the same conditions in
every way as nearly as can judge, the

1% per cent. of fat. ] doubt that we
