Barre evening telegram. (Barre, Vt.) 1898-19??, 1901-06-12

A Russian correspondent sends us
details Of very interesting and anus.
ing tale told by Russian veterinary
surgeon who was sent into the Ural
district to buy horses and hay for the
peasants Of the famine stricken prov.
inces. He had to do mostly with the
natives (kirghiz). who are half saw
age. but who, nevertheless. were found
to be extremely honest and absolutely
trustworthy in all buying and selling,
some of them even offering to give
horses for the starving peasants.
Quite different story has the sur
geon to tell of the Ural Cossacks. who
did their 'lcvel best to cheat him in
the most barefaced manner and on
whom no reliance was to be placed.
And vet these COssacks are very re,
ligious and so simple in certain re.
spects that swindler succeeded il
selling them quite a number of tickets
for-paradise! The veterinary surgeon
saw several of these tickets. which
were marked 'First rows" and sold at
IS rubles. back seats bringing consil-
erably less.-Commercial Intelligence.

RACK USED IN FEEDING
wheat was fed to one set Of lambs,
good wheat to another, and the remain
ing two sets received mill screenings.
No. I screenings is that which comes
from the elevator first, and this con-
tains clover seeds. alfalfa seeds and
the seeds from weeds Of various KINDS,
while No. 2 screenings is made up
mostly of cracked, broken and shrunk-
en- wheat.
The roughage used in the experiment
was the. same in all of the sets-a good
quality of alfalfa hay. g.
The sets on both grades of screenings
made better gains than that on good
wheat and one Of them better and the
other almost as good as the frozen
wheat set.
Taking into account both the rate and
the cost of the gains. the results OF
this experiment indicate that II Is
more profitable TO feed screenings than
either good or frosted wheat.
The frozen wheat used, in this ex'
Uei!n.vnt was of medium grade, mel
| her the highest nor the lowest, and it
ave BETTER returns in rate of gain than
| wheat Of good milling quality This
result agrees with that Obtainable at
the Canadian experiment station, where
it is often found necessary to dispose
| Of large quantities of frozen wheat.
From the standpoint Of composition
taken as IL whole. the better grade OF
| frozen wheat ranks little inferior fol
stock feeding to that fully ripened
The composition of both kinds OF
screenings shows high feeding value
| though the large percentage OF crude
fiber indicates that they are less digest
ible than any of the wheats. ~.
| On account Of the numerous hnt
seeds the first screenings contain. they
will give better results fed to sheer

Common Sense Notions snd ExDes
E ensslIn Potato. Planting.
An experiment has been condncte0
at the Canadian experimental farm
during the past three years IN planting
potatoess at. different depths in rows
az feet apart and U inches apart IN
the rows. The sets had at least three
eyes each and were about uniform 10
size. The soil was sandy loam both
years. Level cultivation was adopted,
and thus very little soil was thrown
On the potatoes after they were covered
Mt the time of planting. The Des1
yields were obtained from planting the
sets only an inch deep. if
In 1899 and 1900 it was found that
most of the tubers We're formed within
four inches of the surface Of the soii,
even where the set had been planted
six, seven and eight inches deep. Where
the sets were planted less thar four
inches deep nearly all the tubers were
} formed between that and the surface
of the SOIL K ,. >'-t@-'. j
The potato grows more rapidly IN
warm soil than in that which is cooler.
The soil within the first three or -four
inches of the surface is warmer than
that three or four inches lower down;
hence the conditions are more favor
able for the potato. The tubers when
the potato is in the wild state develop
near the surface or on the surface OF
the ground 1t seems natural, there
fore, that the cultivated potato should
be planted shallow.
On the other hand, much of the sue
cess of shallow planting will depend
| on the moisture of the soil. II the sea
son is very dry, the first two inches OF
| soil may be so dry that the potato viii
| not take root readily, and the season OF
| growth will thus be shortened. Once
the roots begin to grow they speedii!
reach depth where plenty of moisture
is found.
1t seems reasonable to conclude tina
where the soil is not dry the best re
suits can be obtained from shallow
planting. In any case, early plante'
/ potatoes will probably succeed bes
when planted shallow, as the groun
will be warmer. In places where tn
spring is late or where the ground
cold, best results will probably be ha
by shallow planting. e,
Although the best results have bee
obtained in sandy loan soil by plant
ing the sets one inch deep, this metl
cd is not recommended for field GU
ture. Unless the surface of the SO
is kept loose and free from weeds. tn
potato crop will not be large. In orde
to kill large proportion Of the weed
which grow. the ground should b
J narrowed once or twice before the p'
tatoes come up or just as they al
coming up. II the sets were plante
only one inch deep and the soil ha
rowed. many of them would be drai
ged out: hence about four inches dee
would be the best.

The Riche. Of Irrisation water.

The Riches of Irrigation Water.
, The experience Of centuries in vari-
GUS countries shows that irrigation wa
ter is often superior to rainwater in
that 1t carries greater quantities of
plant food. Pond and stream waters
in humid regions are often rich In nj
trates. which are the most costly and
stimulating fertilizers. The Surface
waters Of the arid regions are also not
ably rich In potash and other valuable
ingredients. No doubt In many in
stances irrigation water; except that
which comes from wells, is worth in

The Reason So Many catarrh Rene
dies Arc Unsuccessful

dies Arc Unsuccessful
There are few troubles. for which
there are SO many remedies and So
called cures" as for catarrh and It
may be added there are few diseases
SO difficult to really and permanently
cure.
Inhalers, sprays, powders and
oouches are an applied locally and
give temporary relief often for only
few hours. and It is doubtful If any
thing like a real cure Of catarrh was
ever accomplished by the use Of local
applications
Catarrh Is a constitutional disease.
it is in the blood like rheumatism end
to cure it requires an internal medi.
cine to act upon the blood, to drive
ont the catarrhal poison from the sys-
tenn entirely and anyone can readily
see that salve or powder or inhaler
which simply clear OF the mucous
mebrane Of the nose and throat can
have no effect on the real cause Of
catarrhal disease
The remarkable success Of the new
catarrh remedy, stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets is because It drives out Of tho
system through the natural channels,
the catarrhal poison, the germs Of
grip, bronchitis and consumption and
causes the hawking, splitting and gag
ging because the excessive secretion
is no longer supplied when the blood
is made healthy from the regular use
of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
The remedy is In the form of large
20 grain lozenges pleasant and pal
atable composed only OF wholesome
antiseptlcs and so safe to use that lit
tie children use them with perfect
safety and benefit if the little one is
suffering from colds. Group or cough
from any cause.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets have been
on the market scarcely one year, yet
they have met with such popularity
and success that druggists e, 1rywhere
in the United States and Canada new
have them in stock and report a con
stantly Increasing uemand for them.

Mrs. Mary Elizabeth eoOdhue.

Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Goodhue, rs,
wife of Col. Francis Goodhue, died at
her home at 13 Main street about
$50 o'clock Saturday evening, after
an illness with paresis, covering pc
riod of several years. She had been
failing gradually for long time, and
the end did not come unexpectedly
Mrs. Goodhue was born in Chesterfield,
N. H., and was one of seven children
of William S. Brooks and Eleanor For
man. Her father was a retired sea
captain who went to Chesterfield about
1925 and was the head of large cot
ton mill in what is now known as Spot
ford. Of his children Mrs. N. F. Cabot
of Brattleboro is the only one now
living. The others were Horace, a
member of the firm of Persse & Brooks
of New York, who at that time were
widely known in business and finan-
cial way; George j., builder of the
Brooks House and the Brooks Free
library; Frank W., Malvina and VIII
liam. Mrs. Goodhue came to Brattle-
boro with her parents when she was
about Is years old, and in 1S4S she
was married to Col. Francis Goodhue,
son of the late Col. Joseph Goodhue'
who is remembered by the older resi-

his time in this community. This mar
rage was the beginning of the close
bond of union which has ever since
existed between two of the early and
most prominent Brattleboro families
families which have left their impress
on the town in the most upbuilding and
enduring way.
Mrs. Goodhue Joined the Centre Con-
gregational church in 1852 and was al
ways loyal member, generous in It's
support and active in its enterprises
and benevolences as long as she was
able.
She was a woman of steadfast deVo-
ton to her family during all the years
of her active life, and in return she has
received in the years of her weakness
the unsparing personal devotion OF her
husband. Six children were born TO

Sidney 5ristoPs Roommate at Yale
Says Statement in Hartford Globe
was Erroneous-Facts are Sufficient.
South Bethlehem, Pa,
Aug. 10, 1901.
Editor Vermont Phoenix:
Dear Sir:-I have received a COPY of
your issue of Aug. 9th, containing a
very sensational and erroneous state
ment copied from the Hartford Globe.
The statement comes from A. Storrs
Campbell, who puts into my mouth
things which | never said, and which
are not true. 1t is not true that Sidney
G. Bristol was given to fighting in his
sleep while my roommate: it is not
true that he was ever vicious and
inclined to do me bodily harm" 1t is
trle that he was troubled with som.
nambulism, as have personally stated
to Attorney Fits and to the Hartford
Globe.
Furthermore, it is not true that |
ever felt or expressed any terror" of
Mr.. Bristol. 1t is true that told Mr..
Campbell of Bristol's trouble, and that
he (Mr. Campbell) suggested that I
ought to be afraid. It is not true that
cit was we'll known that Mr.. Bristors
antics were dangerous to anyone who
might be near" 1t is true that few
of our friends knew the facts of the
case, and their testimony will substan-
tiate my statement sent to the Hart
ford Globe few days ago.
Mr.. Campbell no doubt has meant
well. but his testimony is dangerous,
inasmuch as it must fall before any in
vestigation. The facts are sufficient
to clear Mr.. Greasy of any suspicion
of criminality; anything else than the
facts can only do his cause harm.
Therefore I desire that the mis-state-
ments should be corrected.
Very truly yours,
CHAUNCEY NJ. CRAWFORD.
