RULE FOR MEAsURINo

The follo wing rule used by the
United States in its purchases of hay
offers to the farmers a practical, simple
and easily understood rule for the de-
termination Of the number Of tons in
. stack Of hay:
Measure the distance from the bot
tom of n side OF the stack over
the stack, to the bottom oil
the other side of the stack
This may be done by a rope. Then
measure the width of the stack, and
subtract the width from the first. OF
over measurement. Divide the re-
mainder by 2. Multiply the quotient
thus obtained 10y the length of the
stack, and the width of the stack, and
divide by 512, if stack has stood less
than 80 days. and by 422 if more than 81
days.
EXAMPLE.
Over measurement. 40 feet; width
20 feet; length 80 feet.
40 minus 20 equals 20. 20 divided
by 2 equals 10. 10x50x2O equals TO-
600. 10000 divided by 5l2 equals
number Of tons.

Gentlemen: l have heard so many
of the large stock-growers who are
using your brand Of strychnine or wolf
poison speak of it so highly, and after
careful inquiry satisfying myself that
it is the only poison on the market
worthy of recommendation, l wish to
ask you if you will not thoroughly
advertise it that all will use the same
and soon do away with this greatest
of all pests to stockgrowers.
You should have a big sale for it I
am fully convinced, and l am positive
if you will make it's superior quality
known all will use it. l have heard
enough to satisfy me that it is worthy
of endorsement by all who are inter-
ested in the welfare Of the stock
grower. Your respectively

Gentlemen: I herewith enclose
check for $4,000 for 4Ooz. s%trychnine
which l purchased from your agent,
F. D. Derby, this spring.
After giving the same a most
thorough test l am pleased to say
that it is the best strychnine that I
have seen in twenty years. My men
and wolfers nave had most excellent
results by constant use of the same.
Mr.. Lindsey, n of my men got Fl
wolves with three bottles and their
carcasses were found all the way
from six to one hundred feet from the
bait.
heartily recommend this s%trychnine
to all stockmen, and hope that you will
push the sale of it, as the wolf is one
of the greatest pests to the stock
grower, and for me | have found this
a most practical method of Kidding my
range of the same, and if it is good for
me it must be good for others. Next
year expect to place an order for a
larger quantity. Very respectfully,

New York, Aug. 31-The sixth trip
of Shamrock II today, thanks to a
stiff breeze from the southeast, de-
veloped into a speed trial over a
measured course, the results of which
are considered satisfactory by Sir
Thomas Upton and his friends. Sir
Thomas said yesterday that when
Mr.. Jameson arrived he would be in
absolute charge of the yacht. He was
on board the Shamrock today and in
charge of the yacht every minute of
the trial judging from the mastery
way in which she was handled. In
stead of going outside to sea, he had
the yacht sent twice up and down the
main ship channel from the south
west spit to Staten island and back,
almost every mile of which Is mark
ed by government buoys, with the re-
suit that by simple calculations it
was found the yacht had travelled over
certain portions of the course at the
rate of IA knots an hour. Sir Thomas
