roaring of the wind which left destruc-
ton In It's wake.
AT a, m. the hurricane was as
fierce AZ ever. Huge trees that had
withstood the stress of many storm
bent and broke In twain like match
sticks. Limbs OF trees were snapped
of and hurled through the air. II was
impossible IN go out OF doors. In the
face OF the laundering hurricane one
could hardly stand afoot for a minute.
At n. m, the violence OF the storm
was undated. Buildings still rocked,
and every few minutes brought fresh
sounds OF houses unroofed. trees snap
ming and poles falling. At 1880 It was
all over and the rain came down like
deluge,
Kingston presented a woeful spec
tacle after the storm. The streets
were deserted. In some quarters there
was not sign Of life. But on every
hand stood out the sombre evidence of
the nights terrible visitation. Huge
trees-landmarks Of score of years
lay across the streets and lanes.
Roofs of houses, broken windows,
fallen wires appeared In every thor.
oughfare. On Orange street every
telephone pole was down. Like 30
many broken masts they lay across
the streets. their network of wires In
a tangled mass, all within reach of the
hand In some places the telephone,
electric light and tramway wires were
mixed In inextricable confusion. All
over the city II was the same. Streets
and lanes were blocked by broken
trees, fallen telephone poles and other
debris.
AT a glance one could see that enor.
nous damage had been done. The
lower end of the streets and lanes
were strewn with wreckage; and Il
was clear that the sea had risen and
Its waters had rushed for several
yards In shore. The harbor presented
a sorry appearance Wrecked vessels
dotted the beach; and shipping debris
and garbage were continually being
washed up. Vessels had dragged or
broken their anchors; and the few
that were not wrecked were found far
from where they had stood the night
before.

ern section, the whole colony shares
the blow. From almost every parish
comes the same sad story OF wrecked
buildings and ruined fields. Desola.

quarters the people have been driven
to despair. Homesteads and fields,
the works Of years and months, have
been swept away. Banana plantations
are no more. Stricken trees now level
with the ground tell the story OF for
tunes lost and hopes banIshed.
The damage wrought can never be

A Model Creamery.

In connection with the New York
Sanitarium at Clifton Springs, they
have established model creamery,
from a hygienic standpoint. All milk,
for whatever purpose designed,
whether to be consumed as milk or
cream, or whether to be made into ice
cream or butter is tn be pasteurized.
The hygienic features begin with
the buildings, which are so construct
ed that they can be, and are kept, abb
solutely clean. The milking is done
in such a way that bacteria and all
germs are practically excluded. Per
feet sanitation in the building enables
them to guarantee absolutely pure
milk. The handling of the milk from
the time 1t is taken from the COW.
until the finished product Is ready for
use, is also done In such manner
that 1t is pleasure to the con.
sumner to use the goods, not only be.
cause of their extremely fine quality,
but the fact of their being produced
in so cieanly and sanitary manner
gives them an added favor..-Elgln

The Habit of Growth,

The advice OF our best hog raisers
is to keep the pig growing from the
very start. This applies to all other
farm animals. There seems to be a
habit of growth" that can be formed
or neglected. If a pig is allowed to
stop growing he seems never TO re
acquire the ability to grow rapidly.
The wise hog raiser will see that his
pigs are getting enough milk while
they are with the SOW, and afterwards
he will see that they get full supply
OF food as often in the day as they
want It, The critical time is when
the pigs change from their mothers
milk to grain and grass food. II the
pigs are made to earn their living on
the pasture following steers there is
a tendency to feed them little, so that
they will work harder in picking up
the corn the steers have not used.
This may be carried so far as to cause
a check in the growth of the pigs.
1t requires skill to insure the pigS
enough feed to prevent them being
stunted and yet not so much that they
will cease TO work.

Siberian Creameries.

There are, according to recent re-
ports from Siberia, COS creameries in
that country. Three years ago there
were but 1874 of these establishments.
This shows the rapidity with which
the industry is developing In that
country. II Is true that there are as
yet fewer creameries in all that great
country than in single states of the
American Union, but 1t Is as yet the
day of small things there. If the but.

Applying Manure Green.

John Parton, being asked the ques
ton whether 1t was better to apply
manure green or well-rotted, replied:
There Is less loss In putting manure
on land green than in rotting It before
It is applied. Besides this, there Is q
special advantage that in putting the
manure on in the winter time 1t Is
done at less expense. In rotting the
manure under the most favorable con.
ditions chemists tell us that II loses
80 per cent. However, when 1t is on
the Land in the green condition and
the fermentation allowed to take place
in the soil, as soon as any plant food
Is liberated It Is in the place where 1t
is most readily taken up. Besides
this, the decay of manure in ferment
ing has beneficial effect In warming
up the soil. Experiments carefully
conducted at Guelph, as to applying
manure fresh and rotted, proved that
the ordinary way OF leaving manure
exposed to the weather was wasteful;
when protected from rain 1t was still
subject to loss, and when put on fresh
the best results were obtained.

Ayoidlnu Milk Fever.

Avoiding Milk Fever.
When pasturage Is not available
succulent food, such as silage, Is very
desirable for breeding animals, more
so, OF course, for cows than horses. as
It helps to keep the system relaxed
and does not produce an undue amount
Of fat, says Professor A. M. Soule.
MIX fever, or what Is generally
known as parturient apoplexy, Is one
of the most dangerous diseases with
which the breeder has to contend, and
It Is more likely to occur when the
breeding animals are fed on dry
'oughness and rich meals, such as
corn meal and cottonseed meal. These
'eeds rather tend to produce q fevered
condition Of the system; the dry
'oughness has rather binding effect
and the meals mentioned produce too
much fat, and where they are fed
without discretion the trouble men
Toned is most likely to occur. While
he disease can and has been success
July treated by the Schmitt method.
IN the experience of the writer (Which
aas been CONSIDERABLY 1t leaves the
cows nervous system In very bad
condition. In fact, in nearly all in
stances within the knowledge Of the
writer 1t has permanently injured the
milk flow and the cows recovering
rom the treatment have never been
anything like as valuable for dairy
purposes afterwards. AS this trouble
Fan be obviated in a very large meas
ire by using proper care in feeding
the COW, the importance of giving
more attention to this matter becomes
apparent. Even when succulent foods
are available only small amount OF
grain should be fed Immediately be-
fore parturition, and this had best
consist of wheat bran. Previous to
tsis time a limited amount Of cotton
seed meal and wheat bran, and even
small amount OF corn meal can be
fed with impunity to advantage. While
the bran may be used In the ordinary
condition in warm weather, in cold
weather 1t is frequently an advantage
20 use 1t In the form of a mash, and
1t is also well to give two or three
liberal doses of salts. Should the
udder Of the COW become very large
before calving, 1t should be carefully
MIXED ont and kneaded and worked
with every day, so as to prevent In
fiammation aud caking of the udder.
Where these precautions are observed
there is not much danger Of parturient
apoplexy. @,

tute. l think the chief objections to

once or twice and failed. Those who
have been growing 1t for years are its

first winter and spring Is the critical
period OF its history, and In order to
get 1t safely past this. danger point,
1t is better not to pasture after the
nurse crop is taken off, but TO allow the
young clover to grow and form a
mulch 80 as to protect its roots from
the frost. The next season, though 1t
may not look very promising at FIRST
1t will produce two or three crops Of
hay or fodder. and the stand will be-
come thicker with each successive
cutting. Considerable of the lack of
success In growing lucerne has been
the failure to comply with one or two
minor. yet all important rules, viz,
lack Of sufficient previous preparation
OF the soil, too shallow covering Of
the seed, and close pasturing the first
fall.
