MILLIONS IN CORN STALKS.

The traveller through Vermont as
VOL as other States not infrcouently
secs large fields of corn stalks from
which the ears of corn have been
picked, showing that the owner of
such field regards the corn stalks
themselves as possessing compare
lively little value. In the not distant
future it is safe to say that a spectacle
! of this character will be impossible to
find, for experiments are being made
in different directions that promise to
work revolution in connection with
corn culture
1t is no secret that manufacturers
of wood pulp have long been looking
forward to a time when it must be-
como necessary for them to secure
some substitute for this material in
connection with the manufacture of
paper, and elaborate experiments have
been made from time to time with the
fibre of corn stalks. AS yet complete
ton have not been obtained. It is not
impossible, however. that a variety OF
corn may be developed possessing the
qualities so essential to the manu-
facture of paper, in which event there
will be millions in IT."
In the meantime 1t is worthy of note
that n valuable use of what is now al
most a waste product has been sug-
gcsted by Prof. H. W. Wiley of the
lieves that the stalks of sweet corn
might be made to yield sugar OF the
best quality. they contain much more
sugar than those of the common field
corn. and the sugar content is at its
maximum at the time when the ears
are pulled. Sugar. of course, is read
lily convertible into alcohol. and mas
much as each 100 pounds of stalks will
yield six and half pounds of abso-
lutte alcohol, 1t is easily seen what a
good thing the agriculturist has been
allowing to 20 to waste. If one acre
will yield from ten to twelve tons Of
grain stalks, or about 10000 pounds,
it will Yield Il quantity of raw mater.
ial which will produce 1900 pounds
of absolute alcohol, or PIG gallons.
Alcohol at the present time is worth
forty cents a gallon. Ground in a wet
condition and dried, cornstalks may
be kept Indefinitely, and are ready at
any time for conversion into alcohol.
Professor Wiley says that the alcohol
derivable from the oornstalks that now
go to waste in this country would not
only drive all the u1achnery of our
factories, but would furnish the re-
ouisitc power for all our railroads and
steamboats,, run all of our automo-
biles. heat and illuminate all of our
houses, and light the streets in every
city in tho Union,
This is subject which might we'll
occupy the attention of the Vermont
hoard of agriculture durine~the COM
ing months. and it Is to be hoped that
the near future may see our farmers
enjoying a large income from the
source in question.

NATURES OWN RESTORATIVE.

In the beautiful Northland, land
of beauty and health awaits the man,
woman and child who seeks rest and
pleasure. 1t is at Frankfort on the
shores of grand old lake Michigan, in
the beautiful chrystal Lake country,
where that tired, worn and weary
feeling can be dispelled by strolling
through the beautiful groves, basking
in the sunlight along the shores of
the lake; bathing in or drinking the
health giving mineral waters of the
springs in Frankfort, while resting at
the Royal Frontenac, the magnificent
resort hotel that is now fitted up for
the comfort of guests who desire to
take the treatment afforded by the
baths. It's natures own remedy and
system tonic. Take the Ann Arbor
railroad from Toledo. There's moth
ing better for vacation,

THE BIG SHOW COMING.

The announcement that Ringing
Brothers Worlds Greatest Shows will
exhibit in Toledo, Saturday, June 28,
'O6, will be received with more than
usual interest by the people in this
neighborhood. The Ringing Broth
ers have name that stands for all
that is new, noyel and entertaining in
the circus line, and the management
announces that this season the show
has been enlarged to such an extent
that whole extra train is used in ad-
dition to the four trains of last season.
The show is now transported from
place to place in eighty-five seventy
foot cars, constructed especially for
the Ringling Brothers. In connection
with the circus proper, in which the
arenic performance is unexcelled, the
Ringing Brothers are this season pre-
sentlng the beautiful and sublime
spectacular production of the Field of
the Cloth of Gold. The pantomimic
play necessitates the use of 1900
actors and actresses and of almost five
hundred horses. 1t is presented on the
largest stage ever used for exhibitional
purposes. Special excursion rates
have been arranged for on all lines of
travel by Ringing Brothers, and those
who desire to go to Toledo where this
great circus exhibits Saturday, June
23, can do so at a comparatively small
cost. This will be the onlys point in
this vicinity where the circus will ex-
hibit this season and no one should
miss this opportunity to see it. Watch
this paper for additional announce
ments.

THE STEEL SQUARE.
Story of the Invention of the Tool
Used by Carpenters.


The large steel squares used by car
penters are such common tools that
perhaps few know when and where
they were first made and how they
came to be used or even give the mat
ter thought. The making of them is
great industry now but when the last
century came in there was not one in
use.
The inventor was poor Vermont
blacksmith, Silas Howes, who lived in
South Salisbury.
One dull, rainy day peddler of tin
ware called ut his shop to have the
blacksmith fasten shoe on his horse.
Such peddlers Travelled up and down
the country, calling ut every farmhouse,
buying everything in the way of bar
ter. This one had Il number of worn
out steel saws that he had picked up in
various places. Howes bargained for
them, shoeing the peddlers horse and
receiving the saws in payment, and
each thought he had an excellent trade.
His idea was to polish and weld two
saws together at right angles and thus
anything then in use After few at
tempts he succeeded in making a
square marked it off into inches and
fractions of inches and found that it
answered every purpose that he In
tended it for.
In the course of a few weeks he made
quite number during his spare hours.
hn Inv 10 Jxrhn
found every carpenter eager to buy
one. Soon he found orders coming in
faster than he could supply the de-
mand. One of his steel squares" would
sell for So or So, which was five times
as much as it cost him.
He applied for and obtained patent
on his invention so that no one else
could deprive him of the profit it gave
him. 1t was just after the war of 1872
| and money was scarce and difficult to
| get, but he worked early and late, and
as he earned money he bought iron and
hired men TO help him. In a few years
he was able to erect large factory and
put in machinery for the making OF
| squares, which by this time had found
their way all over the country and had
made their inventor famous.
Such was the small beginning of Q
large and important industry. People
came miles to see the wonderful forges
the showers of sparks flying from be
meath the heavy hammers, and lister
to the din of the thousand workmen.

SHUTTING OUT THE SEA.
The Massive Sea Wall That Stretches
ArOunl GaINestOn.

The Massive Sea Wall That Stretches
Around Galveston.
Stretching around the eastern limits
and continuing entirely along the south
ern side of Galveston is its massive
sea wall, standing as an impregnable
defense and an insurmountable barrier
against even the greatest storm ever
known to have occurred in the gulf,
says q writer in Marine Review. This
wall symbpliZes in its firm construc-
tion ON a solid foundation not only the
absolute future safety of the city, but
also that unwavering confidence and
mistaken belief of Galvestonians in
this location as the supreme harbor of
the star empire and the gateway for
the vast and limitless resources of the
great southwest. The city sea wall was
begun Oct. 81, 1902, and the work was
completed July 20, 1904, having been
carried TO. a successful conclusion in
three months less than the contracted
time, which, considering the magnitude
of the undertaking, is noteworthy. AS
an extension of the sea wall around the
city of Galveston, the United States
government appropriated $591,000 to
build about one mile more of wall
along the beach in front of Fort Crock
ett and the federal reserve adjoining
the city on the west The total length
Of the sea wall is about four and half
miles. 1t Is sixteen feet wide Mt base,
curying to five feet in width at the
top, being seventeen feet above mean
low tide and one foot higher than in
Me 1900 storm.
