AN ARTIFICIAL PANIC,

The difference between actual and
speculative values was never better
illustrated than in the panic on Wall
street, New York, the other day. We
usually connect panics with actual
shrinkages in values, and consequent
ly look for and expect them in times
of great business depression-during
''hard times" But here was panic
in Wall street in the midst of period
of unprecedent prosperity. Our fac
tories are working over time to fill
their orders, wages are being raised,
transportation companies are unable
to handle with expedition the enor-
nous traffic, crops in the west were
never better. Yet Wall street had a
panic, and several banking and broker
age firms assigned, while many indi-
viduals were ruined. Artifcial--specu-
lative values were the ones which
tumbled wn.-Middlebury Register.

whether it would be better for us
Vermont farmers to sell our milk at
from eight to nine cents a gallon de-
livered at the depot or to continue
taking our milk to the separator. If
we take our milk to the depot to be
shipped to Boston, we surely lose the

THE BARRE EVENING TELEGRAM
BARRE, W., DECEMBER %, 1899.

In wishing the many readers of
The TELEGRAM a Merry Christmas
we can do no better than to adopt the
words of that big hearted son of YER
mont, Horace W. Bailey:
"This is a season of good cheer when
the old clasp hands with the young
and the whole circle is made Joyous
with the throbbing pulse of youth.
The old are useless when they forget
the days of their youth, or that the
youth must have their day. Remem-
Der then in these happy days, the
youth, the old, and those in need.
Many gift is given with the sole mo-
tive in the heart that the receiver
will turn about and hastily fire back
a gift of equal or greater value.
Don't give in such spirit. 1t is not
comfortable, especially if the recipient
fails to reciprocate.
Remember by some kind act those
who are unable to rcciprocate and
genuine happiness follows. Try it.
There is one class of gifts which are
in the easy reach of every human be-
ing. They cost nothing but the Civ
ing of them is superb. They help
discouraged fellow mortal, they dis
solve clouds. They are "kind words

other. Instead of hypocrisy, jealousy

tai season, this great new year of 1900.

What Shall Be Done With the Straw
on the Farm.

on the Farm.
Vermont is not what would be called
a grain raising state, yet there is quite
a large area devoted to this purpose.
There is now large amount of corn
grown, and this necessitates the SOW
ing of grain, usually when seeding
down to grass.
Not much wheat is now raised, but
oats principally, with small amount
of barley. TO what use can the straw
be the most protitably put is the ques-
tion.
This used to be largely fed to stock
cattle principally-in winter Now
where winter dairying is practical
there is little call for straw to feed.
1t is not milk producing food and
should not be used for this purpose.
Oats may be made into hay and if
not of too rank growth and cut
early will do nicely, helping to make
greater variety of food in winter.
This course is now being practiced
quite extensively by farmers, and is
liked better than having all of the
crop ripen and then have to dispose
of the straw in some way.
Where it is not desirable to feed
straw the next best use for it is for
bedding for stock. A large amount
can be used on the average sized farm
for this purpose, giving all of the ami
mails share. In this way it answers
two-fold purpose, keeping the ami
mails clean and comfortable, and in
the increase of manure made. 1t will
help to absorb the liquids that might
otherwise go to waste, and that would
be still further gain.
Where manure from the horse stable
can be worked over by swine there
will be no trouble in getting rid of
large amount of straw.
Here the horses have the first bene-
fit of it, then the pigs have a comfort
able bed and pay for this in thorough
working over the entire mass and
it into the best of fertilizers.
Where straw is used for bedding
in the COW stable it will be much better
to run it through fodder cutter, if the
farmer has the machine, as in this con-
dition less amount will be required;
it will absorb more of the liquid and
will be more easily handled in the
In all of these ways the
straw will give good account of
itself, and the farm be the better for
the use of it.
On farms where the COWS 60 dry for
a considerable time in winter there is
more or less straw fed to them. The
danger is that there will be too much
Of it fed for the benefit of the COWS.
1t is bulky feed, and a COW may fill
herself to bursting and then not get
sufficient amount of nutriment to keep
her from falling away in condition.
AS it will not be policy to allow this,
there should be some grain fed along
with the straw, enough to make it
equal to average hay in nutriment.
Oats, bran and gluten are excellent
for this purpose, as these contain the
elements lacking in the straw, and so
in this way a satisfactory ration can
be made up.
