The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1905-04-21

At the recent meeting of the Ohio
Dairymen's association Professor G.. s.
Plumb gave short talk on Economic
Feeding OF Dairy Cows" in which he
showed the effects of feeding a heavy
ration as compared with light one
A heavy ration is fed more econom-
ically than light one, but there is a
limit to that matter. and extreme feed
ing is not usually so profitable as a
medium quantity. Professor Plumb
thinks that the Ohio farmer can grow
alfalfa successfully in nearly all parts
of the state, but he had found by re-
peated trials that alfalfa silage pro-
duces a shrinkage Of milk Others re-
ported similar experience with soy
bean silage, while both alfalfa and soy
bean hay had caused considerable in
crease.

To transfer an old oil painting to a
new canvas is branch of art that
calls for a unison of mechanical skill
and talent There are not many men
In the business. 1t is an entirely dis
tinct work from renovating cracked
or mutilated painting. Transferring Il
painting from an old canvas to d new
one requires years of experience to ac-
complish the simplest part of it. After
the picture has been, removed from it's
frame several layers of fine tissue pa
per are pasted firmly across the sur
face. When the paper is dry the back
Of the canvas is made thoroughly wet.
Thread by thread it is picked away
until nothing remains but the paint,
which is fast to the tissue paper. A
new canvas is then mounted and glued
to the back of the picture. When the
glue is dry the tissue paper is mois-
tened and gently removed from the
surface. A little cleaning and retouch-
ing by skilled hand make the work
complete.

How a Caab Went out Of Existence.


How q club Went Out Of Existence.
Some years ago about dozen men
at Oxford formed sort of marriage
club" 1t was agreed that when any
member was about to be married a
dinner should be held which all within
reach shosld attend-the bachelors to
pay. Marriage seemed far away then,
and the bachelors thought the divided
expenses would be inconsiderable.
Years passed and now and again the
announcement of another marriage
was sent around. They, met, coming
from various walks OF life-soldier,
barrister, solicitor, journalist, school
