 McAndrews, O'Hagan and Wagner bring the first record of the season to this city. That triple play was ex- ecuted with all the dash of the Ma tionai or American league caliber. Is Waterbury base ball hungry? 1T you could see the fans around the Democrat office last night waiting for the score to come and had to answer all the telephone calls you would think so.
 Ten chances for Wagner at third base yesterday and all accepted with out blemish, is holding them down some. That corner of the infield like all the others is we'll taken care of and the fans know good thing when they see it.
 It was battle of the pitchers with but four men on each side able to connect safely. Nichols led his com rades with a two sacker and a single. while Captain Michael had two sim gles and Baker and Treat one each.

On the Casino alleys last night the second game of the series of five be- tween the Woosters and the Casinos for the duck pin championship of the city resulted in victory for the woosters, by margin of thirty pins. It was a peculiar game from the fact that four of the five men of the Ca sino team defeated four of the Woes ters, but Tom Fitzmaurice ,of the Wooster team on his very first string bowled l25 which saved the day for the Wooster team.

It has been announced that Lydig Hoyt. halfback on the Yale varsity eleven last year, had been selected as line coach for the varsity team this fall. He is a senior. The field coach is Rockwell. As yet the Yale football management has heard no word from the Harvard football au- thorities about the game next fall. The talk of what game would re. place the Harvard game in the event of Harvard not playing has not ceased. Manager Knox of the Yale eleven said Wednesday: If the Harvard game is not played there will be no game scheduled to replace that game. The Princeton game will be the only championship game. It has been practically decided that Amherst will be taken on in the place usually filled by Columbia"

Care of Live Stock.

Continue the care of breeding stock.
This Is the time when daily feed of
roots to those that are not ensilage fed
does most good. For this reason if
for no other l would grow turnips every
year oven II l had not good market
for the best of them. There Is no other
root that will keep as we'll as the turnip
into March and April or until grass
comes. And I never found any other
that made as much good growth OF the
bone and muscle as the rutabaga.
Roots are valuable not only for the nutri-
ton they contain, but as aids to the
digestion of dry fodder and grain. For
cows in calf, sheep before lambing time
or sows before farrow feed of roots
once a day is better than grain feed.
The calves should be coming along now
or soon. When was making butter
tried to have as many of the cows as l
could come fresh in March and April,
that they might get weaned from their
calves before they went to pasture.
Using q pure-bred Jersey bull I raised
the heifers from the best cows regardless
of the price of veal. I took them from
the COW at three days old or sometimes
younger and fed them on new milk for
about week, then began to add part
skim milk, made as warm as the new
milk, and by the third week they were
having only skim milk, with perhaps
little bran and meal in it, and were
growing we'll, not fat enough for the
butcher, but with good frames. They
did not cease to grow as did calves

or the fourth week and when turned to

Notes from College of Agriculture.

UNIVERSITY OF MAINE, March 8, 1905.
The eight weeks winter courses clos
ed Feb. %. Those who attend these
courses know full we'll the value of an
education, and are eager to get all the
knowledge they possibly can in the
short space of time given to these
courses. Most of these young men have
had practical experience in farming be-
fore coming to the University. During
the course they have studied soils, have
home-mixed fertilizers, have learned
something about the crops best suited to
Maine conditions, the best methods of
producing them, and the ways Of COM
batting insects and diseases,-they have
examined the good collection of imple-
ments ct the college. Half of their
afternoons have been taken up by but
termaking, and the remainder with work
iu the carpenter shop, blacksmith shop
and orchards. They have scored ami.
mails, using representatives from the
different breeds owned by the college
for this purpose, and from what they
have learned of economical feeding
ought to 60 to their homes and make
q much wiser expenditure of money in
this direction than before. In hOrti.
culture they have been taught practical
orchard management and gardening,
with lessons in pruning, and other prac'
tical work in the college orchards.
Besides these things actually studied
in the class room, these young men have
spent t1o months In pleasant associa
tion with others Of similar ambitions
and still others Of entirely different
tastes, both Of which can not but helI
having q broadening sffest on theil
minds. No doubt the one thing mor'
than all others that they carry to theiI
homes, ID Q stronger belief In the posi-
bilities Of Maine agriculture, for thi'
idea ID kept before them from the be
ginning Of the course until the end.

The Word 0ROW.V

"Row" is one Of the many words
which are rising to respectability with
advancing age. Told's edition OF john
sons dictionary QS27J denounced 1t as
"a very low expression" Since 1t ap-
pears to have been occasionally written
'roue" about Il century ago some have
wished to find its origin In the French
.'roue." Todd Identifies 1t with the
older "rouse." drunken bout big
drinking glass or big drink. In which
sense that word several times occurs In
Shakespeare Hamlet observes that
''the king doth wake tonight and takes
his rouse" Row" is supposed to be
false singular formed from rouse"
mistaken for plural. as ''pea" for
"pease." sherry" from "sherris."
CHERRY" from "cheris." But ii seems
simpler to explain ''row" as short for
"row-de-dow." an excellent word for
noise.
