A new law in world formation has
been worked out by DR.. T j. J
See, who fiuds that "the absolute
Temperature of gaseous star Or ne
bula condensing under its own gravi-
tation varies inversely as the radius
Of the contracting mass" At first,
when the nebula is infinitely ex-
banded, the temperature is the abso-
lutte zero of space, but it gradually
rises until the mass has contracted to
the maximum consistent with case
GUS condition, when, solidifcation be-
ginning, contraction is interfered
with and finally stopped, and the tenn
perature falls, the body becoming
again dark. This law is found to agree
we'll with observation. When the ne
bula is much extended. gravity is
small and the various constituents
float freely, but on further conden-
sation the heavier elements sink
the appearance of numerous elements
in the spectra of cool stars aud the
predomnance of the light element
hydrogen in outer envelopes of white
stars being thus explained. The dark
companions of variable stars are &C
counted for by the difference in mass
of the two bodies Of the same age.
Assuming the present heat of the
sun to be 5000 degrees c., DR.. See
calculates that the temperature Of
the central nebula at the time Of
the desperation of the earth was less
than 40o c., from which the gaseous
earth under contraction rose to 1000
degrees c., which would be sufficient
Tor observed geological phenomena.
The sun is held to be still growing
hotter, Jupiter and Saturn to be still
gaseous and c0ndensing, with the
prospect Of becoming self-luminous.
The theory confirms the evidence of
photography, which reveals through
ultraviolet light nebulae invisible in
telescopes, and indictes that fewer ne
buIae than stars are known contrary
to what the nebular hypothesis would
ed us to expect simply because
many are cool and invisible.

Local germ affections are to be
treated by M. Pierre Apery, a Con
stantinople physician, by concentrat-

therapy will effectively destroy the
microbes of cancer, tuberculous ul-
ceration, and especially of bites, and
he proposes also to try the rays of

A New Corn Product.

The new corn product, upon which in
designations have been conducted at the
Maryland agricultural experiment station
TO determine its value as a stock food, has
been given much consideration by the
farming community of the state; in fact.
several states have taken up the subject
and are conducting experiments to ascer-
tain its relative feeding value. In the pro-
cess OF the extraction of the pith, the
blades and husk are first removed and the
stalks are cut up In small pieces. After
the extraction of the pith from the stalk
the balance is ground up into meal, which
In general appearance resembles coarse
bran. This ground material is termed the
new corn product"
The new corn product contain II pounds
per hundred more digestible matter and
Two pounds per hundred more digestlble
protein than the whole fodder shredded.
IL contains within one pound as much total
dlgestlole matter as wheat, bran, but less
than one-third as much digestible protein
consequently the nutritive ration is wider
1t was further observed that animalsfed
with fattening ration with the new-corn
product base made more gain in liyeweipht
and upon less feed than with a fattening
ration of the same grain and corn blades
The keeping qualities of the new corn
product are as good as linseed meal. cot
tonseed meal or wheat bran, and rations
made up with this material can be fed with
less labor and less waste of feed than when
nay and fodder are fed separately as ordI-
hariiy practlced'-l Baltimore Sun.

the war he had held many positions Of
honor.
Capt. Sigsbee has the following to say Of

zine: "Mr. Holden was my right hand in
many ways at Havana, and saved me work
and anxiety in many directions. His iudg-
ment, ability and sense of duty and loyalty
were strikingly admirable. He is one Of

The Rutland Railroad company has closed
a contract with the Schenectady Locomo-
tive works for two freight engines of the
latest design. The engines are to be of the
mogul pattern, carrying a weight of 1O2.-
OOO pounds on the driving wheels and a total
weight of $4,000 pounds. The cylinders
are to be 10 by 20 inches and the diameter
OF the driving wheels is to be 81 inches.
The engines are to be equipped with air
brakes and air train signals and steam
heat, and will have cast steel driving wheel
centres and steel tire engine truck and

windsor County's Fair.

At the annual meeting of the Windsor
County Agricultural society the treasur-
er's report made the best showing for
years. The indebtedness as reported a
year ago was $500 and for 1899, $1,000.
The total receipts for 1898, including bal
ance on hand, were $3359.24 and the cash
paid for bills, including cash on mortgage,
S1SOO.32, leaving cash in treasurer's hands
$7S.72. The only change among the Off
GERS was the resignation of H. G. Lockwood
as treasurer, after several years service,
G. Ii. English being elected to fill his place.
F. L. Davis is president The sum of $500
was appropriated for special attractions.
The society voted to join the National Trot-
ting association. The next fair will be

Yankee Sheep Farming.
A Suggestion That Is Valuable II Found
ed on Fact

Frank p. Bennett writes to the Boston
Herald: ''In the effort to restrain further
abandonment of the hill farms of New
England, or to repopuiate those which
have been already abandoned, this matter
OF proper selection of sheep is of vital i'm
portance. The domestic sheep now in the
United States are mainly descendants of
the fiocks introduced by Spanish and En-
glish colonists. Hence the so-called ina
tive" sheep of all the New England states,
as well as of Virginia, the Carolinas, and,
in fact, of the entire Is original colonies,
had for their progenitors the Down,
Leicester and other English races of sheep.
The English colonists brought their own
sheep with them, and the Spanish brought
theirs.
The Spanish sheep, imported by Chris
topheI Columbus himself at the Isthmus
of Panama, and by other conquistadores
in Mexico and elsewhere, have formed
the basis of the flocks throughout the
western section of the United States.
The essential difference between the Span
ish and English sheep may be summarized
in single sentence, viz: The Spanish
sheep can live together, in large numbers,
with minimum of care while the English
sheep will perish ii housed together in
considerable numbers. The "native''
sheep of New England, being wholly of
English origin, contract fatal diseases with
such certainty, if kept in large bands, that
the farmers of Massachusetts and Maine
are accustomed to assert in general terms
that sheep will not thrive If kept in flocks
of more than 30 or 40 head.
The farmers who make this assertion do
not know that the popularity to which
they refer is racial, rather than universal,
and that theory so destructive to all hope
of profitable sheep husbandry upon the
abandoned farms of New England as that
flock of sheep must not exceed 80 or
40 head may apply to Shropshires, Leices-
tiers and other English breeds, but it is not
at all true of sheep having basis of Span
ish or other merino blood.

Family Starved to Death.

The recent deaths of William Bushee,
his wife and one of their children, of Suth-
erland, is said to have been mainly due to
the lack of proper care and nourishment.
Bushee was Canadian woodchopper, and
with his family occupied small hut on the
outskirts of the town. He was first taken
with grip, which developed into pneumonia.
His wife and their two children were soon
Frustrated. They had no money and what
care they received was given by the few
neighbors who resided some distance from
them. The father, mother and one child
died within week. The town authorities
did all they could to aid the family as soon
as their condition was known, but the as
sistance came too late.

Ice Trus. with 500, 900, 900 Capital.

The introduction by Representative Jo-
seph H. Marley, of bill in the Maine leg
islature incorporating the American Ice
company, with a capital stock of $50, O00,-
600, is the outcome ola gradual process of
Capitalization which has been going on in
the ice business of Maine for two years.
The small companies have been disappear
ing, their interests having been purchased
by the larger ice corporations, of which the
leaders are the Consolidated Ice company
of New York, and the Knickerbocker Ice
company. The former organize: ion has
been in control of the Kennebec field for
some time, and has also been making in
roads into the business on the Penobscot.
The bill introduced by Mr.. Manley per-
mits the company to engage in the business
OF carrying passengers and freight by water
to and from Maine ports. 1t is expected
the concern will attempt to control both
the natural and the artificial ice supply of

Invention Which May Bring a Fortune
to Woodstock Man

A. W. Taft of Woodstock has invented
and secured patent on a new combina-
tion wood and metal railroad tie which is
attracting considerable attention Mr.
Taft has been offered royalty of three
cents per tie for the use of them on so
miles Of road, which amounts to about $40
per mile. He is also receiving inquiries
about the tie from various parts of this
country and from England. The tie ques-
ton has been vexed one in railroad af-
fairs, and attempts have been made to sub
stitute steel ties for wood, but they were
found so unyielding as to injure the rolling
stock. Mr.. Taft conceived the idea of a
steel skeleton tie, with cushions of wood to
support the rails. His invention embodies
that idea. This steel tie, once placed, re
mains. At each end is recess to receive
a block of wood 20 inches long, six inches
thick and eight inches wide. A portion of
the steel coffin projects above the block to
prevent any possibility of the rails spread
ing, and the rails are spiked firmly to the
wood, as in case of ordinary ties. The
blocks are secured firmly, but can be easily
replaced.

THE VERMONT NEWS.
Norwich University Alumni In Boston

Norwich University Alumni In Boston.
The Boston alumni of Norwich universe
ty held their annual banquet at the Bruins
wick in Boston Thursday evening, when
they listened to speeches chanting the
praises of their alma mater and its distin
guished sons
President N. L. Sheldon in opening the
after dinner speaking, gave a short sketch
of Capt. Alden Partridge, founder of the
university. He also spoke of Gen. Tru-
man B. Ransom, who gave his life at Cha
pultepec, DR.. Edward Bourne, and later
Gen Alonzo Jackman, who carried on the
work so well begun. At the close of the
civil war he found the university rich in
renown but poor in purse, to be made still
poorer by the loss of the old South Bar
racks in 1856 by fire, but phoenix like it had
risen from its ashes and he now hopes soon
to add Dewey hall to its present buildings.
After President Sheldon came the presi-
dent of the university, Allan D. Brown,
commander U. s. N, retired; Col. Henry
o. Kent of the class of SO, who spoke up
on George Dewey as he knew him in his
class; Commander Charles H. Stockton,
president of the naval war college; Capt.
Harley, Rev. H. F. Hill of Concord, N. H.,
of the class of '65, who spoke for the Nor
witch boys of the republic, and Col. Ed
ward Rice, U. S. A, who led the 9th Mas
sachusetts in the latter part of the Porto
Rico campaign.
