Principles and Practice OF Stock
Feeding.

Vermont farmers have now a good
chance to learn the better methods OF
stock and dairy feeding and to study
the laws on which their practice rests, If
they will but avail themselves of the OPP
portunity. Bulletin 81 of the Vermont

and Practice of Stock Feeding" is now
lust being issued from the press. 1t is
fifty-six page pamphlet, which discusses
these matters in clear everyday English.
Its perusal should be helpful to every
dairyman in the state. 1t is worth-lt
it's teachings be heeded-thousands OF
dollars to Vermont agriculture. 1t will
be sent without charge-as are all the
station publications-to any address tor
the asking. If the applicant wishes his
name placed on the mailing list, so that
he may hereafter receive without charge
and until further notice, all the station
publications, this request should be
made in addition. A postal card ad
dressed to the experiment station, Bur
lington, VT, stating desires is sufficient.

Unloading Dead Stock.

az am often asked what becomes OF
surplus of stock in our line when it goes
hopelessly out OF STYLE" said drummer
who sells hats and mems furnishings.
1.-THE answer is not exactly easy because
there are so many different avenues
through which such stuff is worked OFT.
A great deal OF it goes to Central America
South America and Cuba, and is often
sold as the newest metropolitan wrinkle.
We had lot of silk gauze scarfs, for in
stance, of style that enjoyed brief
popularity about five years ago and at
ter that couldn't be given away. They
Law on the shelves season after season
until last spring, when Rio merchant
bought the whole outfit. They went like
hot cakes, and he has given us an order
for a second consignment. Other dead
stock is unloaded on the cheap John
stores, although that is usually last
resort, because it never brings fifth OF
it's value. The cheap Johns usually sup
DIV pedders and street-corner stands
that are patronized by people who want
the worth of their money and are not
particular about keeping step with the
prevailing mode. Not long ago saw a
corner vender selling lot of vest belts
a 90 cents apiece. They cost the maker
at least $1.75 each, but they were hid
eously ugly and fell fiat when first intro
duced. in '94 or '95. Another great
dumping ground for passe furnishing is
the extreme northwest, especially the
lumber districts. Away back in the sos
a peculiar block OF derby hat had some
thing of a run for season. 1t was high
and full in the crown and had very
narrow brim, with only a slight curl
The combination was atrocious, and at
ter brief freakish popularity it wa
relegated to the top shelf, where it re
mained until quite recently, when all tn
stock on hand was shipped to small
towns in Michigan and Wisconsin. TIL
hat was of very good material, and l an
told it has made a big hit among til
dudes of the tall-timber belt. Any MAJ
who wears one to New York will b
offered a gold brick before he get

undation has been the more fatal and
destructive. The great earthquake at
Lisbon in 1855 was accompanied by a
tidal wave which, rolling up the Tagus
River from the ocean, submerged all the
lower parts of the city and destroyed
thousands Of lives which might possibly
have escaped the earthquake shocks.
When the earthquake came to Caracas
in 1912 there was tidal wave at La
Guayra, the entrepot of Caracas, which
DESTROYED many lives. Five years ago
a series of tidal waves accompanied by
or alternating with earthquake shocks,
visited some of the most populous is
lands of Japan. The tidal waves reached
from fifteen to twenty miles inland, be-
ing of such height, force and volume ten
miles from the ocean, particularly when
restricted to narrow valleys, as to be
capable of destroying much life. The
number of human lives lost at that time
has never been stated in an English
newspaper, but that it ran far into the
thousands there is no room to doubt,
Ten thousand is more apt to be an under
than an over estimate, such were the
ravages of the combined seismic and cat
aclysmic terrors visited upon that part
of the world during nearly a week OF
days and nights of horror which, FORUM
ately, come but seldom in the experience
of the race.
The affection OF Texas, while much
less than this, is still monumental, and
will always rank among the great catas-
trophies of history. Perhaps there have
been events more destructive of life, in
times or places where it was impossible
that any record of them should be left,
but few such are known I'm history. Nor
is it likely that the future will often bring
to any part of the world severer atfiic-
ton than that which has fallen upon our
Gulf coast.-[St. Louis Globe Dem
