RELIANCE MOVES TO SHELTER.

Salute the Yacht-C Columbia Makes .
Swift Trip to CITY Island and Her
speed Amazes Captain and Crow.
Hundreds OF sightseers. camera fends
and yachtsmen visited Echo Bay and Hud-
son Park at New Rochelle yesterday to get
a glimpse Of the Reliance. which Is moored
in Long Island Sound almost directly OPP
posite Allview, the residence Of G. Oliver
Iselin, her managing owner. on Premium
Point. All sorts Of steam yachts, launches
and sailing vessels sailed around her. Sew
eral OF the boats had on board pretty girls
who took snapshots Of the yacht, and the
sailors on board saluted them. As the
sun peeked out from behind bank OF
clouds the Reliance, stripped OF her sails
and with her great spar glistening in the
sun, danced about on the waves like q
feather.
Almost ally day a stiff northeast wind
kept blowing, which dashed white caps
out Of the choppy sea. and at times the
yacht shipped water. Then, despite the
announcement that the Reliance would not
leave her moorings on Sunday. Capt Barr
decided it would be better to move to a
place OF shelter with his precious craft.
The yacht was not in danger. but 1t was
thought best to seek quiet Glen Cove. where
she would not be dashed by the combers
Accordingly, at $40 o'clock sharp. the
balloon lib and staysail were set and the
Reliance shot across the Sound like bird,
amid the shouts of the yachtsmen on shore
and at the cubhouses. The yacht headed
for Glen Cove, and at p. NJ, when the
wind changed to the southeast and began
blowing from the Long Island shore, Capt.
Barr was forced to make many tacks to
reach his destination.
After sailing around there for an hour
or so Reliance, under mainsail, staysail
picked up mooring in Hampstead harbor,
where she remained over night, protected
from gale which began to rage at 3 o clock.
The Reliance was moored near the school
ship st. Mary's, and when the young tars
on board the latter learned Of this they
gave three cheers and dipped the colors.
The Constitution did not leave her anchor
age at Glen Cove all day.
The Columbia, with sails unbent, is now at
her old moorings near Hawkins's ship
yard at City Island. where she will remain
for three days while her new sails are being
bent
The Columbia, which left Newport on
Saturday morning, reached City Island
in the evening, making the fastest time on
record for her style Of vessel. The dis
lance is about 12O miles, and she made the
trip in seven hours and thirty minutes.
Capt. Miller, who was at the wheel, says
by one hour and twenty minutes and raced
like thoroughbred.
During the voyage she was under full
sail and at times when she was flying her
spinnater she made speed which amazed
the captain and crew.

HINTS TO FARMERS.
(From the Mortified News,

(F'rom the Northtield News.)
A good COW is a good thing, and a
good man behind that COW is a better
thing.
Pigs can stand lots of cold but they
must have dry bed to sleep on.
If you are troubled with scurvy pigs
just get a box of crude petroleum and
rub it into the bristles we'll and your
pigs will be all right in a few days.
Some of the city dailies could not
print more yellow stuff about farmers
if they used butter color in their ink
fountains.
Silos will have to come west more
rapidly in the next ten years than they
have in the past if farmers want to
feed more economically.
Hens have vermin. Perhaps if
some people would have their bedding
changed no oftener than that of the
hens they would be sinilarly troubled.
Farmers should not worry about
their farms being too small but should
spend their worry moments in better
cultivation of what they have.
Give your geese an armful of clover
hay once in a while during the winter
and little oats and they will come
out all right
just throw over fork full of clover
hay to your hogs occasionally and
they will show you what they think of
that plant, when dry and cured.
One reason why so many men on
farms dislike doing chores is because
some farmers lay out their buildings
in such way as to make chore-doing
the hardest work on the farm. Farm
ers should arrange to have their
chores done at seasonable hours.
The practice of permitting dairy
COWS in full flow of milk to run about
in all kinds of weather in Minnesota
winters should be rapidly done away
with.
a good road from the farm to town
helps the farmer in many ways. It
not only saves his horses and vehicles
but enhances the value of his farm.
The selection of the sire for dairy
or beef raising should be one of the
most, if not the most, important duties
of the farmer if he cares to continue
along the line of breeding with any de-
gree of success.
