Wills with her fingers. All her selections
were excellent, perhaps the best being the
Second Noeturne by Leschetilky and the
Concerto from Mendelssohn, which she
PLAYED with Miss Howe. The latter has
been taking lessons for comparatively snort
time OF Miss Cressy Of Brattleboro and re-
fleets much credit upon her teacher as wen
as herself She plays with such excellent
expression and technique that Il Is always
pleasure TO hear her. Mrs. Mckay has been
with Professor Canterbury OF Boston ana
has evidently acquired his methods to per
lection. II Is hard TO tell which was the
best OF her selections, but perhaps her rem
dering OF De Koven's Promise Ne was
the most pleasing. Flowers were presented
10 each Of the artists at the close OF the re-
cital. The hall was prettily trimmed with
cut flowers and potted plants. Miss stoddard
was greatly pleased at the thoughtfulness Of
her friends in sending these flowers for the

THE GROWTH OF TROUT.
Age, Food and Temperature Seem to
Have No Bearing on Size.

Age, Food and Temperature Seem to
Have No Bearing on Size.
The Salvelinus fontinalis, which is
currently but inaccurately called brook
trout, was supposed for many years to
be a small fish. Agassiz was largely
instrumental in exploding this fallacy.
1t, is not an uncommon thing for an
angler with ordinary luck to get six
or seven pound trout of this variety
1t is known that trout may grow to
weigh eleven or twelve pounds. There
is, however great difficulty in account
Ing for it's variation in size.
In northeastern Canada there are
large streams and lakes in which only
fngerlings have ever been found. In
the immediate vicinity Of such water
three and four pound trout are quite
common, and seven and eight pounders
are not phenomenal. In all these wa
ters crustacea do not abound; there are
no small fish of any kind except small
trout. All the fish are pure fly feeders
At some places, it is true, frogs abound,
but, taken as whole, the difference in
food supply is not an adequate expla-
nation for the difference in growth
There is no substantial difference in
the waters as to temperature, size, ORR
gin and course. Climatic conditions
are the same. The small trout taken to
virgin lakes in which there are no fish
have sometimes grown to a great size,
have sometimes remained small and
sometimes have not thriven. The an
glers who haunt these waters have not
yet found a satisfactory explanation
of this peculiar condition Of things. It
is one Of the mysteries which lend
fascination to the art you never can
tell what is going to happen when you
go fishing."-St Paul Dispatch.

No Place For GrumhIcrs.

A man who stands on the street cor

the town, finding fault with his grand
mother because she was woman,
claiming that the merchants are a lot
Of thieves, that the lawyers and news
paper men would skin man to Il fin,
ish and whole lot more, is a nuisance
and an abomination. Any town pes
tered with one or more such worthless
would be justified in exercising cow
hide authority on the bosom of their
trousers. No one is obliged to live
where he is not suited. If things don't

Orange blossoms.

Much uncertainty exists as to why
the orange blossom has been so much
worn by brides, but the general opin-
ion seems to be that it was adopted
as an emblem of fruitfulness. Accord
ing to some authorities, the practice
has been derived from the Saracens,
among whom the orange blossom was
regarded as a symbol of a prosperous
marriage, a circumstance which is
partly to be accounted for by the fact
that in the east the orange tree bears
ripe fruit and blossoms at the same
time.

Opinions OF Feeders Do Not Agree.
How 1t Is Used.
A sheep grower of Indiana has the
following to say in the Indiana Farm
er in regard to the use of silage:
"Some sheep growers are cnthusi-
astic in their praises of corn silage as
q food for sheep. On the other hand. a
large number do not think so we'll of
1t. All those who have tried it have
agreed with reference to the wisdom OF
feeding a moderate quantity to the
flock when the silage has been prop
rrly cured. On the other hand, quite
number have found trouble when
feeding it in large quantities. On the
whole. it is not to be considered as sat
isfactory food for sheep as field roots,
since. more especially when there is
much corn in the silage. it has a
tendency to produce a heated condi-
ton OF the system, which with breed
ing ewes is not desirable. 1t is not
we'll perhaps to feed corn silage to a
breeding flock more than once a day,
and when so fed the aim should be to
give them clover hay or alfalfa at
least once a day in order to produce
proper balance in the ration. In cold
weather it is probably wiser to feed
the silage at noon than morning or
night. When exposed to such weather
for only few minutes the tempera-
ture as cool as is frequently found in
sheep sheds will freeze more or less,
or if it does not freeze it becomes very
cold. For this reason it is better to
feed it in the middle of the day in
cold weather, for at that time the tenn
perature is usually many degrees
warmer than in the morning or even
ing 1t is not common to feed more
than two to four pounds Of silage per
head per day to sheep, but some farm
ers who grow winter lambs feed as
much as that twice a day. more espe-
cially after the lambs have been born.
A great advantage Of silage as food
for sheep consists in its cheapness. 1t
furnishes the cheapest food that may
be fed to them, and when properly fed
there should be no fear of hurtful re-
suits from feeding silage well made"

AN ODD DUEL.
It Introduced a Frenchman to the
POssibiJitie Of Baseball

Possibilities Of Baseball.
A Frenchman challenged an Amer
tican to fight. The American, husky
six footer from Yale, who had pitched
on the baseball team and stroked the
crew, was loath to accept and took the
matter as something of a joke The
count pressed his desire for satisfac
ton, and at last the son of old Eli con-
sented to meet him, STIMULATING that he
should choose his own weapons. Sec.
onds were agreed upon, and the mode
of combat chosen by the American was
baseballs at twenty PAGES. 1t was
dangerously close range for man who
spent three years twirling .inshoots
and outdrops over a twelve inch plate
and likely to be pretty accurate shot
with a baseball, but the Frenchman
was game, and they met on the out
skirts of the city at daybreak.
Each was to have three shots, anG
the count won the toss and thereby the
privilege OF leading off. Perhaps he
had never seen baseball before, and
at any rate, the man from Yale had no
difficulty in lodging the adamantine
spheres which the son of Belle France
sent scaling in his direction.
Then the American opened fire. The
first ball grazed the Frenchman's
shoulder, the second lodged in the pit
of his stomach and the third, an in
shoot, caught him full on the point of
the chin. He went down and out and
never challenged another American cit

The usefulness of urban libraries has
been proved up to the hilt, but the
question arises why similar advantages
cannot be supplied in rural districts.
AS matter of fact, they are more
needed in the country than in the
towns. The dullness of country life is
constantly bewailed, and it can be
readily believed that a young agricul-
tural laborer or young woman
brought UP III the country would be
very glad to have the chance of the
wide choice of books which their cous-
ms in town enjoy-Bristol Press.

Among the Poultry.

The years experimenting seems to
warrant the conclusion that the dry
feeding method is as good as and no
better than the wet mash when the
latter Is properly handled.
Dry feeding with limited amount Of
meat scrap will likely give better re-
suits in the hands~of inexperienced or
sverworked poultrymen than the regu-
lar method.
There is no special advantage in the
dry mash in feeding apartment or yard
ed t1ocks.
With colony focks dry feeding can be
arranged to save labor and promises to
make the colony method more profta-
BILE than any other for commercial
poultrymen.
The dry feeding method as applied to
the feeding of young chicks is very
diGerent matter and will be discussed
