A PIGS SoUEAL.
II Played Momsntous Part In Ameri-
can History.

I II Played q Momentous Part In Amerl-
can History.
The war between this country and
England in 1912 was caused by one
vote, and. stranger still, the small mar
gin came from a pig getting It's head
stuck in a rail fence. II was Rhode
Island fence at that. but built much
like a Virginia worm fence.
They were having an election Of
members Of the legislature in Rhode
Island. One Federalist put OF going
to the election and left himself just
time enough 70 get there before the
polls closed. Just as he got on his
horse and started FOR town he heard a
pig squeal. he looked around and
saw that the pig had It's head damned
into that old rail fence, and anybody
who knows anything about hogs
knows that the hogs would have eaten
that pig up # It hadn't been rescued.
The farmer stopped long enough to
liberate the pig, and when he got to
the polls they were closed. he was
too late.
The result was that Democratic
member Of the legislature was elected
from that district by one vote, and be
would not have been elected II that
Federal had got there on time. In
the legislature q Democratic United
States senator was elected BY one vote.
and that Democratic legislator who
had been elected by one vote voted
for him.
In the United States senate they
voted for the war OF 1912 by one vote,
and that Rhode Island Democratic
senator who had been elected because
that pig was caught IN the fence voted
for the war Of 1s12.--Popular Maya

bad situation worse and to stir UP

HELPED BY HUMIDITY.
Many Materials and Products Which
Require Moist Air.

Many Materials and Products Which
Require Moist Air.
There are many materials, operations
and products which require special
atmospheric conditions for adyanta-
geous or profitable maintenance. Prin-
eipal among such operations Is the
manufacture Of textiles, perhaps the
largest single industry carried on In
factories. Ia the favored climate Of
the Lancashire district Of England the
natural climate affords working con
dltions equaled IN America only on oc-
casional days In certain localities.
Even IN England, however, there are
many days In which the atmosphere IS
too dry for the best work.
Since textile fbcrs arc increased In
strength and elasticity by high humid
ity and moderately high temperature,
breakages are less frequent under
proper conditions. and the output Is In
creased. But even before the fiber
reaches the manufacturing plant at
mospheric humidity plays an important
part Cotton loses weight as II dries
out, but, more than that the hbers
bristle and appear shorter and Of lower
grade than when slightly moistcned.
Leather, feathers and many other por-
Gus substances lose considerable per-
centage Of weight In drying out, so that
the maintenance OF average and uni
form humidity in the storage rooms
has a direct advantage to the owner
IA maintaining the value OF his goods
as they lie In the warehouse. Cigars
and tobacco lose flavor IA dry air and
regain 1t to some extent, after loss,
BY storage IN proper humidified rooms.
Wooden furniture and musical instru-
ments are sometimes cracked or the
finish injured by the dry air Of steam
heated rooms. All these and other
similar goods are adyantageously
worked or stored IN rooms In which the
atmospheric humidity Is artihcially
controlled and kept at the most desira-
bic point.-Engineering-

One of the most commendable moves
made in Barre recently, small as 1t ap-
parently was, is the demand that meat
shipments be covered when they are be-
ing carted about the city. One who has
seen an express cart loaded to the wheels
with fresh meat, and all Of it exposed
to the dirt Of the cart and the germs
of the air and the attacks Of countless
flies, realizes the truth Of the foregoing
assertion. Tho statement That the meat
ID probably washed before it Is cooked
only adds to the feeling that it Is d
swinish way Of living for human beings
to be 50 careless Of handling this food
Therefore, those parties who are respon-
sible for the reform are to be commended
in no uncertain manner.
