Barre evening telegram. (Barre, Vt.) 1898-19??, 1899-12-14

The recent remarks of the Spring
field Republican regarding the aston
ishing growth of this Vermont city
have had the effect of exciting imme-
date comment from various press rep
reSentatives in different sections of the
state. With this comment the TELE-
GRAM is pleased to note the evidently
friendly spirit that exists on all sides
for this thriving Granite City of
America. Vermont should feel moth
ing but pride for the Barre granite in
dustry which has built up in so short
time one of the busiest cities in New
England.

RHEUMATISM
FLESHY PRIMA DONNAS.
they Are Willing to Adopt Any
Means to Take Off Super
Auous Weight.

Getting fat is the great dread of all
"omen opera singers, from the prima
1onIa to the girl in the 'steenth row of
he chorus, said a veteran theatrical
manager, who was in the city few days
ago, says the New Orleans Times Dem
ocrat, and when singer sees the fatal
symptoms begin to appear she is willing
to resort to desperate measures to nip
! item in the bud. Calisthenics, dieting.
practicing with clubs, Turkish baths
and even straight-out starvation are
few of the things that are generally
tried, but they are rarely successful.
One OF the few cases l ever knew in
which marked tendency to stoutness
was successfully controlled was that of
very charming lady who is still an Or
nament to the lyric stage. Some years
ago she suddenly took on flesh in an
alarming fashion, and everybody pre-
dicted that her career was ended. Next
season, however, she was as sylpl-like
es ever, and exactly how she did it has
never been told. The truth is her sys-
tenn was very simple. During summer
vacation, spent in the country, she had
her husband drive dag cart every day
along quiet road while she held to the
back of the vehicle and followed at a
run. That sustained her and kept her
from falling, and at the same time COM
PEELED her to take violent exercise. The
horse went at a gentle trot, which was
gradually increased as she became bet
ter and better sprinter.
OF course, IL was very absurd, leap
ing along IN that manner, and the
country folks who saw her thought she
was crazy, but the plan worked like
magic, and she lost all her supertluous
fesll and at the same time improved in
health--a remarkable combination.

CARING FOR CALVES
And Other Young Animals in the
Winter.

This does not mean calves that are
being raised this winter, but tohse
that were dropped last winter OF
spring.
First, they should have warm,
dry, comfortable stable or pen. Two
or three might be kept together in a
well constructed pen, but when there
are more it will be found better to
have a stable specially prepared for
them, where they can be tied up in
some manner. The plank upon which
they stand should be much shorter
than for other animals.
This should be we'll bedded SO as to
keep them clean. Several years ex-
perence shows the superiority of this
method for stabling the calves. They
readily adapt themselves to their con-
ditions and if we'll fed and otherwise
cared for will do remarkably well.
There will be little waste of fodder
and each will be more likely to get it's
share without assistance or trouble.
They can be better handled in this
way and will become more gentle
than when allowed to run at large.
They will not forget this training
of the first winter in the stable and
when the succeeding autumn arrives
there will be no difficulty in learning
them to take their places ina different
stable.
The feeding and care Of the young
animals the first winter should be duly
attended to. They should be kept in
a thrifty, growing condition by proper
feed and attention. Early cut hay in
which there is some clover will be ex-
cellent. If a farmer has a silo a part
ration of ensilage will help along with
the dry feed.
Our own calves take freely to oat
hay, remarkably so, and this forms
part of their allowance.
1t will be found to pay to give
small amount of some grain feed
every day. Ground oats and bran or
bran and gluten will be excellent for
the purpose, A quart day while in
the stable will help to produce good
growth of bone and muscle, and that
is what is wanted by these young ami
mails and not fat.
They should be well bedded, so as
% be kept comfortable and clean, with
occasionally some exercise out-of-
loors.
Calves kept in this way will grow
hriftily all through the winter, and
when the time comes to turn out to
'rass another spring, they will be
redit to the owner, with the promise
# making, with the same care contin-
led, well grown and profitable animals
or the dairy. The next winter these
eifers, now coming two years old and
expected to take their place in the
airy another season, should receive
he same careful attention and feed.
hey need 1t, especially at this time,
1hen their growth should be main-
aimed, as we'll as the unborn calf.
They should have food of good quail
ty such as will fit them the best for
heir particular function of milk pro-
uction. No straw should be fed,
My good hay and fodder corn or bet
er still ensilage and a moderate ra-
ion of grain of heterogeneous char
cter.
Helfers now commence their milk
~ career at two years old If not |
ooner, thus gaining a year in time
rom what used to be the more
Dmmon practice a generation ago,
ence the need will be seen of fitting
hem specially for their life work by
ne most careful management.

greSS TO Une communities IN WHICH
they are located. Vermont capital is
now being invested at home more than
ever before and the first decade of the
new century will unquestionably wit
ness the full fruition of the general
adoption of this policy in rapid grow
ing towns as well as in greatly in
creased prosperity throughout the
State. Free Press.
st. Adams people appear to be con-
siderably stirred up over the fact that
one Carrigan, who was arrested in
that city for intoXication last week
proved to be "spotter" in the SER
vice of the Anti-SaloOn league. The
Messenger finds that this fellow con-
sorted with the bad people of it's town
and bought liquor from its illegal
dealers, whereat it's moral sensibilities
are terribly shocked. 1t feels that
the league has committed some kind
of terrible wrong in hiring this fell
low to hunt out illegal liquor dealers
and takes columns of it's space to dis
cuss the matter. The Messengers
greatest trouble in the case seems to
be that the leader hired the man to
"tempt people to commit crime" in
order to get evidence against them.
This it regards as inexcusable. Tech
nically it may be correct but practi-
cally there is nothing in it. The av-
erage high license advocate In this
state will stand by and see and know
of liquor being illegally sold, and
thereby a crime committed against
the laws of our state, for years
without word of protest but when a
'spotter" buys a drink for the pur-
pose of obtaining evidence, the license
system advocate experiences terrible
shock at the depravity of the man who
will tempt seller tocommit an illegal
act, notwithstanding the fact that
this seller is committing just such
acts about every hour of the day and
every day of the week, and sometimes
every minute of the hour. In stating
the above facts we do not necessarily |
endorse the "spotter" system as the
most advisable plan of suppressing il
legal liquor selling. Yet it is possible
that it may be necessary in some
cases. The "spotter'' is not a pro-
duct of the prohibition law as some
people would have us understand. He
is often employed in license states by
the police. The anti-saloon league
certainly has the same right to en-
ploy HIM in prohibition Vermont as
the police have in high license Massa-
