Folly of an English Earl.

Devonshire, England, is to lose an
interesting monument of the folly of a
wealthy man. The Earl of Egremont,
who pursued so picturesque career in
the sos of the last century, resolved to
erect a mansion at Siiverton. near Exc
ter. which should be an example to the
world of what his genius and riches
could produce in the way of beauty and
luxury. He was his own architect. and
so profuse We're his ideas that he put
up about 20 marble mantelpieces. had
the doorknobs of the principal rooms
fashioned of amber and the bath cut
out of a solid piece of marble. He spent
a quarter of million on the place. and
even then it was incomplete. 1t is, in
fact. incomplete to this day, and ro>-
it is to be sold as building material.

The famous dairy expert, Black

of dairy cows. and of this number six
referred in some manner to the feed

ut least, feed was much more import

of the dairy. Much complaint is being
made by dairymen that some of
their cows are not profitable, and
while. in many cases. the trouble
is due entirely to some poor in

discovered by weighing the milk of

there is no doubt but that poor feeding
