derful. The fact is coming to be known
that if poultry can have clean, warm,
well ventilated home, with plenty OF
sunshine and the right kind of food,
they will usually lay. During the ex-
tremely cold months it is very essential
that they have the stimulating,
strength giving nourishment afforded
by green cut bone. Carroll S. Page of
Hyde Park, VT, is probably the largest
producer of Green Cut Bone and Meat
in the United States and he will send

Levi Miner more venturesome than
most of the teamsters, drove some logs
during the recent icy time and while
coming un the hill at f. A. Temples mill
with a heavy load, the horses slipped
down and the load pulled them back and
over the bank just below the mill. The
bank here is 90 feet high and when the
end of the load struck in the river the
horses swung over on the pole, striking
where the water is several feet deep.
They were rescued from this position and
then large force of men constructed a
tramway by which with the assistance of
pulley blocks. the horses were. gotten up
the bank 1t is a wonder that one or
both of the horses were not killed since
the river is very rocky at this point. but
thew only sustained few bruises and are
coming out all right This team was
pinned down this winter by fallen tree
that had to be cut and rolled off them
