LADIES' NIGHT.

Wednesday evening Williamstown
grange observed Ladies' Night with
Sister Colby in the chair; sister Mile
Drury as overseer; sister LOra Martin
as secretary; sister Helen Kimball as
lecturer. The other chairs were also
all filled with ladies.
The Lecturers programme opened
with music by a choir composed wholly
OF ladies, followed by an essay, "What
Victoria has SEEM by sister Frank
UNI: recitation by Lora Martin;
duett by sisters Colby and Reed; the
discussion of the question: "What can
we as patrons do for the good of the
community? 1t was discussed by
sisters Granger, Williams and Farm
ham. This was followed by an essay,
Advancement of women in the past
century," by sister Hattie Briggs. "A
recitation by Matte Burnham follow
ed. Then came song by sister John
Farnham. An essay, "Flowers and
ferns of williamsburg" was read by
sister Watson. An Instrumental solo
by sister Reed followed. The ques-
ton: "From an economical standpoint
do women have all the household APP
planes they need, and if not what
are needed and Why" This was dis
cussed by sisters Lena Briggs, Martha
Martin, Crane and Adams, The eX-
ercises closed with singing by the
choir.
We might make special comment
of some Of the parts, but all were so
well rendered that general report Of
one applies equally well to all. The
essays were full Of instruction and in.
terest and in the discussions the la
dies proved that they were fully equal
to the men.
Nine members from Washington
grange were present and Worthy Mas.
ter Seavcr of that grange made some
appropriate remarks.
AS if they would prove beyond a
doubt their superior ability to conduct
grange meeting, the ladies' appeared
with cake, coffee, pears and peaches,
which were very acceptably received
and disposed of, after which the music
struck up and grand promenade and
social time was enjoyed.
The next meeting will be held on
the evening of Oct. Sd, when the ques-
zion: "Resolvcd, That high license
would be preferable to our present
prohibitory law" will be discussed.

conn CANNING.
Figures About Large and G OWL 6
Industry.

Names sweet corn ca niug iHdus-
try is reaching huge proportions. Few
people who have not given the sub.
iect any INTELLIGENT thought have
even a moderate idea regarding it and
but few are probably aware that
Maine is now the banner state in the
corn packing and green pea canning
industry.
Farmers have come to look upon
the sweet corn as something to be re-
lied on each year and as Offering good
returns for the time necessary to care
for it, 1t pays as well as any other
crop that can be raised. The manag-
ers of the factories find it possible
now to engage in short order all the
acreage they can handle. Instead of
going about towns canvassing as for
merly they simply insert notice in
the paper to the effect that their
books will be open on such a date to
accommodate the farmers and then
there is rush which lasts for a few
days, but number usually gets left
they get in too late; they find that
all the acreage has been contracted
for that. the factory desires. Thus
have the conditions changed.
The Portland Canning Co., with
branch factories at Foxcroft and New
+ port, put up last season 4Oo,00o cans
daily and in all 5, 500, 600 cans.
In Maine last year the product was
$50, 900 cases or %, 100000 cans of
corn alone.
This industry that has been found
so profitable in Maine, is beginning to
find a place in Vermont, there now
being several canning establishments
in the state. part at least operated
by Maine men.
One of the last to commence opera
tions is located in the city of st. AL
bans, and will this year receive the
product from $50 acres of sweet corn.
Probably fruits and vegetables will
receive attention in the future.
The canning business is getting to
be of large proportion in this country.

The discussion over fading safe
spot on which to rest the blame for
the failure to issue legal call for a
frecman'S meeting for the first Tues
day in September, is gradually dying
out. The general sentiment seems to
be that Mayor Hersey bit off more
than he cares to chew, when he stirred
the matter up for purposes of a cam
paign boomerang. The facts in the
case are that the meeting was not
called, and the neglect was probably a
mistake. II the mayor could not call
it he should have seen that somebody
else did.

which city Williamstown invalid in a

quest of medical treatment and
health. There is no tie of blood be-

any special claim on the kind services

kindness shown by this business man

the greatest beauty of them is that

the most folks of even small means to
a greater or less extent can render

kindness received, is like opening an

The street man of the New York
Produce Review writes that journal as
follows:
Readers of these columns have heard

OF mold, notifies, streaks, weedy or
bitter flavor, erumbly or ragged. bor-
ing butter, but who has heard of but
ter being packed into tubs that had
three or four inches of cream on the
bottom Of them? | met a man last
week who used 90 be employed in one
OF our butter and egg stores, but is
now buying butter and eggs for
wholesale grocery firm. He said he re-
Gently purchased lot OF butter from a
hrm mere, and when the butter was de-
hVered to him he examined several
tubs and they appeared TO be all right,
SO he sent some Of the lot to one OF
MS customers. In few days this Gus
toner returned three tubs, claiming he
mad cut out part OF the butter. but
when near the bottom OF the tubs he
found a very peculiar looking mass,
whlch undoubtedly was once butter.
MY friend examined the returned tubs
and found that each one contained
from three to eight inches of soft or
slushy butter in the bottom. Close ex-
animation showed that there had been
a considerable quantity of cream in
the tubs before they we're packed with
butter, and this had softened the but
ter so that 1t could not be used. The
cream was sweet, and its presence did
not affect the flavor Of the butter in
the top half OF the tubs. but did to
some extent affect the flavor and color
OF the balance OF the goods. Just how
the cream came to be in those three
tubs my Friend cannot say, and he
thinks it Is very strange that the but
ter-maker did not notice the condition
of the tubs before he packed the butter.
1t Is quite apparent that it was another
case Of carelessness.

SklmmlIk for Hogs.

Skim milk should always be used
when 1t is available. II is not only
a good flesh producer in itself, but 1t
alsa makes the ordinary grain feeds
more digestible and so adds greatly to
their value. While skim milk alone Is
rarely profitable. from 20 to 40 pounds
being required to make a pound of
meat, when mixed with grain in the
proportion OF pounds or less of milk
TO each pound of grain its value is
greatly increased. In a test reported
by C. p. Goodrich bushel OF corn
produced 10 pounds OF pork, and 100
pounds OF skim milk produced
pounds OF pork, when fed separately.
When led together, however. the mix
ture produced IS pounds OF meat. an
increase of pounds due to the mix
ing. In this case 100 pounds OF skim
milk took the place OF 44.S pounds Of
corn. IL the corn was worth % cents
per bushel. the milk was worth 1876
cents per 100 pounds; IL the corn was
worth 40 cents. the milk was worth
31.i cents. Extended tests in the feed
ing OF skim milk have been made at
the Utah Station, and among the facts
brought out by the work are these:
THE hogs fed on the milk and grain
ration made much more rapid gains
than either those fed on milk alone CT
on grain alone. The time required TO
make 100 pounds Of gain was seventy
nine days for the hogs fed on milk
and grain. one hundred and sixteen
days for those fed on grain alone, and
one hundred and forty-seven days
when the feed was milk alone. The
milk-and-grain-fed lots required 2.5S
pounds OF digestible matter, the milk
fed lots 2.S5 pounds, and the grain
fed lots 3.19 pounds to make 1 pound
OF gain in live weight" In this case
100 pounds Of skim milk took the place
Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1900-04-12

OF 1872 pounds of grain In the mix
ture. Work at other stations has
given very similar results and has
demonstrated that when not more than
4 pounds OF skim milk is used with
each pound Of grain the milk is worth
from Is to 80 cents per 100 pounds. The
younger and smaller the hogs the
higher is the value Of the milk. For
fullgrown and aged animals it is OF
less value. 1t may be taken as a safe
rule that it is profitable to pay at least
10 cents per 100 pounds for all the
skim milk needed to make four times
the weight Of the grain fed. and where
it is impossible to secure enough for all
the hogs the available supply should
be given to those pigs nearest the
weaving age and to sows sucking pigs.
