Blue Lead Discovered.

Intelligence comes from Whitehall that
very valuable vein of blue lead has
been discovered in the mountains near
that village. The news is TO the effect
that Philip Neddo, a brother of George
Neddo, superintendent of section 3 of
the Champlain canal, has made the find.
Mr.. Neddo is lover of nature and when
not employed at his trade as a ship
carpenter spends most of his leisure
time wandering about the mountain. 1t
was while he was making one OF his
woodland excursions that Mr.. Neddo
discovered the vein of lead. At first
he took it to be a bullet buried in a
rock crevice, but further investigation
proved that it was vein OF blue lead.
A similar discovery was made on
Mt Diameter" at the head of South
Day, about 60 years ago. A vein of
blue lead was discovered, but when the
discoverer returned to claim his find he
was not able to locate it, so the treasure
still remains in the Dresden wilder
ness.
Mr.. Neddo has had pieces of the min
eral tested, and it shows 90 per cent
pure lead. FL has had many fiatterinp
offers during the past week from capt
talists who are anxious to become in
terested in the project He has not yet
decided what he will do.

vermont congregationalists Object.

The Ninooski Association of Con-
gregational ministers at its recent
meeting. denounced the acceptance of
Rockefeller's gift of 100000 to the
American Board of Foreign Missions, in
the following
This association recognizes the diff
ficult situation in which the prudential
committee finds itself. II has the ut
most confidence in the motives of the
committee and does not wish to intrude
its definite opinions into field which is
distinctly the committees, or to antiei-
pate q decision which it trusts will be
rendered with an eye single to the whole
concern OF the kingdom and not to any
one phase OF it.
'sBut we refuse to accept as a guild
ing principle in any case the one indi-
Gated in the late announcement of the
committee. No matter what has been
the rule Of the board in the past the
time has come when no one charged
with any responsibility for the king
dom of God has the right to refuse the
obligation OF moral discrimination in
the acceptance and use of money. Such
a refusal viii involve the church in
endless and increasingly difficult COM
pIications, and win intimate moral
blindness which the church of Jesus
Christ win not permanently suffer in
its representatives.
1--WE beg the committee to consider
in the case actually before our church
es, whether the acceptance of the de-
bated gift will not, in view of vast is
sues now coming to head, put the
church in so doubtful moral alignment
as substantially to neutralize our en-
deavor to create more efficient civic
conscience

ducers, and were also a very desirable
market fowl. The second cross proved
to be a mistake. While the first cross
was uniform in color type and dispo-
sition, the second cross was anything
but uniform in any of these points,
and was very unsatisfactory. The
flock possessed no attraction AS a
result we discarded all such fowls and
ever since have kept nothing but the
pure breeds.
Shall we buy our pullets or hatch
and raise them? is asked. That would
depend upon many conditions. 1t takes
money to buy good pullets and there
are many localities where the best pull
lets obtainable would be a very poor
investment. A pullet must be bred
and reared right, or it is of but lit e
value for egg purposes. And, again,
the person with no experience in the
business, would at once find himself
in hot water with even 100 purchased
pullets on hand, even from the best
flocks. In the writer's opinion the
poultryman of experience is the only
person who can safely invest his
money in pullets with which to carry
on the poultry business. 1t would
be all right for the beginner to buy a
dozen or two for a start, and if he
meets with success the first year then
double up the number for the next
year and so on. Such might be term
ed the short road to. success with
poultry.
The following problem has been sub
mitted: If one acre of alfalfa pro-
duces ten tons of hay, how many tur-
keys could be raised on that acre? We
give it up! Our experience has not
been in lines that would justify us in
an attempt at it's solution. We started
an experiment with alfalfa this year,
by sowing one-eighth of an acre. In
forty-two days after sowing the seed
the plants stood thick and eight and
ten inches high. We clipped it and in
six weeks clipped it again. After the
second clipping four turkey goblers
found the patch and spent the most of
their time in that spot until recently,
when they were removed. There is no
sign of any alfalfa on this spot today.
We are anxious to know if it will ever
appear again. We will wait till spring
to learn it's fate. This simply goes to
show that turkeys are very fond of
alfalfa, in fact, appear to prefer it to
any of the other grasses.

Blood and Its Natural Value.

The following queries have been sub
mitted to The Ranch for reply: Can
you give me a receipt for preserving
blood, when Strengthening animals, SO
it will keep in condition for feeding
hens? Is it not good substitute for
green cut bone, and better for those
who slaughter good many animals,
and who cannot get green bone easily?
Is there any difference in the nutri
tive ratio of beef and sheep blood? If
you will be kind enough to answer the
above you will be doing a great favor
to a subscriber to your valuable paper
We are not familiar with any pro-
cess for preserving blood for feeding
purposes. While dried blood is recog-
nized as possessing a high feeding
value-more than one-half of its weight
being digestible protein-we do not
understand that it would be substi-
tue for green bone for feeding to
hens, since green bone is said to con-
tain all of the component parts of an
egg in about the required proportion.
The tables do not state whether the
analysis of blood is that of COWS OF
sheep, hence we take it that the differ
nee in nutritive ratio is very little, if
any.
Paul Raymond's Poultry Experience
Among the admirers of the Ameri-
can hen who will take interest in the
coming poultry show in South Bend,
Pacific county, to be held January Is,
16 and II, is Paul Raymond He has
raised a great many chickens and it
may be of interest to note his observ-
atoms in the poultry line. In his ex-
periences he has found that white
chickens are more delicate than color
ed poultry. More of these will die on
a mans hands by a large percentage
than the others. Another experience
he has had was to take 40 Leghorns
and pen up in one yard and 40 Buff
Cochins and Plymouth Rocks in an
other. He fed the two lots the same
amount each for three months. The
Leghorns devoured all of their allow
ance, while the two other breeds had
enough and to spare. The latter be-
came fat and were good layers while
the former grew poor and laid but lit
tie. This is an item of much interest

covered an excellent remedy to tone
