BIG NEW SHOE BUILDING.
It Is Dedicated by the w. l. Douglas
Co. at Brockton.

The dedication a short time ago OF
the new administration and jobblng
house building erected by the w. l..
Douglas Shoe Co. as part of its nam.
moth manufacturing plant at Montello
was marked by the thoroughness and
attention to detail characteristic OF the
firm in all its undertakings.
The dedicatory program included
open house from II n. m. to p. m.
with concert BY the Mace Gay orches-
ira and the presence Of a Boston
caterer to attend to the wishes of all.
The building itself afforded n feast
for the eye, especially the Offices.
which are marvels In many ways.
Fifteen thousand invitations were sent
out, including over 1000 to the re-
tail dealers in the United States who
handle the w. L. Douglas Co. shoes,
the others going to shoe manufacture
ers and all allied industries In Brock
ton and vicinity. Mr.. Douglas will be
glad to have anybody who is interest
cd call and inspect the new plant, and
says the latch string is always out"
All departments of the plant were
open for inspection, the three factories
as well as the new building, and WIS.,
itors were received and escorted
through the industrial maze by ex-
Gov. Douglas, assisted by the heads
of the various departments.
Under the present system all shoes
are manufactured to order, and Gus
toners sometimes lose sales waiting
for shoes to arrive. With the new
jobbing house they will be enabled to
have their hurry orders shipped the
same day they are received.
The new building is 260 feet long
and GO feet wide and two stories in
height. The jobbing department will
occupy the entire lower floor while the
offices will occupy the second floor.
The jobblng department will carry
complete stock Of mems, boys, youths
misses and children's shoes. slippers
rubbers and findings equal to any job.
bling house in the country. Buyers are
especially invited to come here TO
trade, and every effort possible will be
made to suit their convenience. There
will be finely appointed sample room
on the second floor with an Office in
which both telephone and telegraph
will be installed. with operators, both
Western Union and Postal Telegraph
wires to BIO used. There Will also be
ARRANGEMENTS for the recent and des.
patch of mall.

spite of the daily visits of the birds,
but when the young of the latter were
hatched, the numbers of the beetles
began to diminish rapidly. and when
The young birds were fedged and

a week later could not find a single

About this time the birds began to

and a few fragments of peas, My
conclusion was that the few peas

ever | hung an old coat on pole near
the pea vines, and the birds came
near them no more. All of the above
observations were made in the state
Of Iowa, which was one OF the first
states to suffer from the attacks Of
the beetles on their eastward march.
Since then this habit OF the eros.

of observers in all parts of the coun.

bird are found. AS this Insect 10

Is especially desirable that this one,

In every possible manner Forty
years ago this bird was rare in New
England-in fact, was entirely un.
known in many places, but 1t Is now
fairly abundant there, and It may be
that It has been attracted to that
section of the country by the pres

CURING CLOVER HAY.
Only Such Amount as Can Be Safely
Cured and Stored Should Be Cut.

Where q hay loader is used, Il Is
sometimes advantageous to ted clover
hay twice to get all the dampness out
Of 1t before putting It in barns. Where
the hay is loaded by hand from cocks
or plies, this Is seldom necessary
Glover hay, says the Orange Judd
Farmer, should never put In the NOV
II will cure out in NOW.
II the weather Is very brittle, as It
was last year In this latitude small
amounts should be cut so that too
much will not be down at one time.
My practice IL to cut one day about
what can put In the next, so that II
the weather breaks and my hay gets
wet after II Is almost cured our loss
will be comparatively small. Last
year during the wet weather, ! know
OF farmers who lost Ave or six acres
by cutting down too much at one
time. Besides, II the weather proves
warm and clear. when so much Is cut
at one time the last to be taken in
will be too dry to handle well and so
many OF the leaves will drop of while
handling that the value OF the hay
will be greatly reduced.
A good programme for hay making
and one which endeayor TO carry out
Is e5out as follows; Cut the latter
part OF day. about as much as can be
taken care OF the next afternoon, this
to be governed OF course by the
amount Of help at hand, Begin ted

rHiEvINc SQUIRREL DRIVEN OFF
Robins Successfully Defend Nest
Against Marauder.

A pair of robins proved too much
for a marauding squirrel In Independ-
ence square yesterday. While on a
midair cruise he suddenly stopped as
though something special had attract
ed his attention, and then he came
down the tree in slow, unconcerned
manner. The secret was out when
he shyly began the ascent Of another
oak, In the branches of which pair
Of the redbreasts had built their nest.
His little eyes glistening and his
whole manner that Of thief, he
moved up the tree trunk, and had al.
most reached the little blue eggs in
the nest when the mother bird and
her mate saw him and few down from
their upper perch. They were on Mr..
Squirrel In an instant, and the fur
flew when their beaks got into action.
The retreat of the squirrel was quick
ly effected. The watchers were
amused Then a second time the rob-
Der advanced, and was so successful
MS to get one of the eggs in his paws
before the birds came TO the rescue.
The squirrel was nonplussed, as he
couldn't back down with the egg with
the birds pecking him. and he was
loath to relinquish his hardwon prize.
His hesitation was fatal. though, as
tho birds, with concerted rush, fair
" showed him out of the nest, and the
robins followed him so quickly and
furously that the egg was dropped
and smashed on the ground. The
squirrel then gave up his purloining
expedition. Philadelphia Record.

chamols Skin of Commerce.

Charles C. Druedling, of Philadel'
phia, has written an article for the
American Journal of Pharmacy on the
subject of chamois skins. What Is
known in the market as channels skins,
he says, is really an obtained sheep
or lamb skin lining, The supply OF
skins from the channels animal Is very
lImited-enough could not be obtained
in year to supply the United States
for more than single day. He made
special inquiry on a recent visit TO
Switzerland about the annual crop OF
the chamois skin and ascertained that
from 5000 to 5000 skins would DO a
fair average yearly crop. This skin Is
heavier than the skin OF the sheep or
lamb. also much coarser. For strength
and durability the channels skin is pre-
ferable. but for ordinary use and APP
pearance the obtained sheep skin
lining would. in most instances. be
preferred.
