Courant, "A Babel of Voices" At this meeting the General reported on the standing of the defunct agricult- ural society. This brought out various diverse opinions from horse race farm CTS. Col Jarvis. president of the Der lin fair association, expressed himself as not in favor of a State fair, notwith- standing he had previously made an effort to procure the same charter that the socalled Harbinson com. mittee was after until he learned that that charters S2500 dowry had been abolished by the Legislature,
 Secretary Cocher of the National Trotting Association, who up to this time had been an ardent believer in the State fair, inconsistently expressed himslf as being in favor of Hartford fair, at Charter Oak Park. All present representing agricultural interests were heartily in favor of State fair. The following morning the Hartford Courant" issued call, signed by A. J. Welch, Manager of Charter Oak Park, for fair meeting. Those inter ested were invited to meet him at the Hotel Garde, at 2p. m., on December 19. At this meeting the keynote was horse racing, although some advocated State fair, notwithstanding that in conflicting with the newly issued State fair charter, as to name, they would be violating the laws of the state. MT Welch advocated a S25,O00 corporation, but stated that the grand circuit races must be run. This calls for S5O,O00 in race premiums which would leave a lib- eral balance for agricultural premiums. In getting the interest of the move ment the organizing committee invite suggestions from all interested, and would be pleased to answer questions regarding the coming State fair. -[James H.

common grades or natives. 1t IS a fact
 that the limitations of every COW are
 fixed by her breeding. The work of
 every dairyman is to bring his cows
 I'D to their maximum production oi
 milk at minimum cost of feed. In ev.
 cry dairy there are some cows good
 To test the herd and determine which
 ones have the characteristics that
 cause them to convert food into milk
 and butter fat instead of beef and to
 so feed these that they will have a
 balanced ration and keep a good appe-
 tite, is work that usually makes even herd of what we may call common cows profitable. To maintain a herd of registered, pure bred cattle may be the end to work for but this may re- quire years. To make the best of what we have to work with. is a lesson many need to learn. This is just what Mir Keath is doing on this farm. He believes he must build up all his cows until they can do good work for him, and the results he has obtained show this to be a good principle in dairy farming. The winter ration for the COWS is about ten pounds day of a mixture of wheat bran, cornmeal, gluten meal, and about twenty pounds day of mixed hay.
 The summer ration is good pasture, four quarts of grain day, some green corn and millet. This farm is natural ly so productive of grass that it is the main crop, and because of the fertile grass lands the cows are fed at a less cost. The two barns that stable the one hundred cows are warm, light, clean and first class in every way, and the dairy COW has chance to do her best on this farm. The total returns from all sources are as follows: Milk sold at the condensery, $S,O00; veal calves, S100; fruits and vegetables for family use, $2O0; use of house, SlO0, making total of S8, 40O The total ex- penses are: Grain purchased, S3,000; taxes and insurance, about $500; hired help, 1,2OO; incidental expenses, $500. To this we add the interest on an invest ment of $20,O00 at per cent, making a total of S6,00O. This figuring shows a total net income of S2, 400. This amount may not be realized every year but it is approximately correct, when all is working well. l was told by the business men, in the village that the farmers in the Unadilla river valley were making and saving money, land that all who were good managers are becoming we'll to do. The price of milk is high, and the natural fertility of lands in this valley, enables the farmers to feed the dairy COW so cheap ly that there is good margin of profit. The consumers of condensed milk and bottled milk who read this may be as- sured that these articles as they come to their tables from the Bordens are pure, and that all pains seem to be taken to give them the best that it is possible to produce.
 The lesson have for farmers, based on the profits of the farmer described, is that the ordinary dairy COW of the milk type, when given an opportunity to do her best,a as on this farm, will pay a good profit.

ATTEMPT TO BURN RoADHousE
Blsae f. BxtinEuished Before II Does
Much Harm.

An incend1ary attempted to burn down
the road house known as The Riverside
Hotel on North Thirty-seventh street Sun
day night, but the burning material which
had been set aginst the side Of the building
was discovered before 1t had had time to
do much damage.
When the flames were noticed at the
east side of the building, investigation
disclosed a box filled with cotton waste
saturated with kerosene. Three nails had
been driven through the bottom of the
box and on these pieces of tallow candles
had been placed and lighted. The candles
on burning down, ignited the oil-saturated
cotton waste.
Residents Of that section of the city
have been up In arms against the road
house ever since II was reopened by it's
present proprietor and several requests
have been made to the authorities to
close the place. The attempt to burn
down the place was reported to the po-
lice, but 1t is said there is no clue to the
would-be lncendiary.

NAVAL CRITICS ANSWERED
letters from Rear AdmiraIs Read at
banquet Discuss Designs OF
Newer Ba~ttIeships.

CHICAGO, Nov. 24-Cities of the navy
who condemn warships because of minor
defects, were publicly answered tonight
at a banquet of the United States Naval
academy alumni of the east. Six rear ad-
mirals sat the banquet board at the
Auditorium hotel and letters scoring re-
cent critics and praising the navy were
read from Admiral George Dewey, Rear
Admiral Schley and Rear Admiral r. D..
Evans.
The rear admirals present were: Wash

the navy; Albert Ross. Willard H. Brown
son, Francis ]. Higginson. French L. Chad
wick and James II. Dayton.
Rear Admiral Caps, after abiding briefly
to the development of battleships and de-
claring that the vessels of this country
were fully abreast of the times, said:
Il shall refer you to the opinions of
three Of the most distinguished admirals
who have ever commanded fleets in our or
any navy. Each of these opinions was
written in response to a request.

ments recently contained In certain news

dillon OF our battleships and their alleged
faulty design.

writing, which he did. He was Rear Adj

Rear Admiral Caps then read the let
tiers. Admira Dewey's letter said IN mart
