keeping in the Game"

tLoulSNllle Courier JOUrnaD,
A short time ago at Reno an athletic
contest taught over again the often
taught lesson that it is difficult for
athletes to come back after a period
of neglect of their muscles AT Lake
Lonely. in New York, a few days ago
James Ten Eyck and James Riley 50
years old and Ga respectively. covered
rowing course of three miles in time
that astonished some TWO thousand per-
sons who gathered TO see the exhibit
tion, The two men were champions in
their youth and remain crack oarsmen
al a time in life when many men in
good health would consider it hard
ship TO have 10 row a boat three miles
al slow speed
Keep in the game is the answer
given by the two osrsn1en when asked
how muscular longevity is to be attain
ed. A sporting writer who combats the
theory that athletics at college shortens
life gives a long list of veteran athletes
whose muscles have defied the passing
of time and whose health is excellent
They are athletes who have kept in
the game" to a certain extent. Those
who give up exercising and become
habby may in the opinion of the sport
ing writer suffer iii effects. but the
continuance of athletics, ALWAYS with
sensible moderations. OF course, pro-
notes longevity. increases all around
efficiency and contributes to the JOY Of
living.
The comm onest remark heard in the
theater is that actors and actresses
| have a peculiar power of remaining
young looking. Even off the stage and
without grease paint to hide the wrink-
! les and other ravages of time many
stage celebrities appear much younger
I than they are 1t is reasonable to
! suppose that keeping in the game" has
/ good deal to do with keeping them
young Had Sarah Bernhardt, now a
great grand mother. settled down to an
easy chair existence thirty or forty
years ago, she would not have today
the appearance Of youth, the elastic
step and trim figure and the keen inter
est in affairs that she now has.
The business man who keeps in the
game by keeping up some of the form
of recreation and social relaxation that
appeal to younger men is likely to fee
a good deal younger at sixty than the
man who goes from the office to his
home and puts on his slippers to doze
in front of the fire till bedtime. The
increased popularity of out of door life
among American business men is tend
ing to keep in the game a great many
men who manage to reduce their agt

DO Not Expose Manure.


when exposed to the wea ther. Thru
fermentation it loses only in quantity
and in nitrogen, but thru teaching it
loses not only in quantity and nitrogen,
but in the mineral elements as well.
Careful experiments at Cornell Uni
versity indicate that horse manure ex-
posed to the elements for six months
Will lose at least one-half of it's fer.
tiizing constituents. The Kansas eX-
pertinent station found that in the
same length Of time fully one-half Of
the gross manure and 40 per cent OF
the nitrogen were lost. The New Jer-
sey station found that primary manure
exposed to teaching for 100 days lost
3s per cent OF its nitrogen, 80 per cent
of its phosphorus and Al per cent of it's
potassium. Other careful experiments
have shown that manure exposed tc
the weather for several months not
only loses largely in amount, but that
it is not worth nearly so much, ton for
ton, as when fresh. There are several
ways to preserve manure from loss.
One way is to keep 1t under shed and
thoroughly tramped to exclude the air,
using plenty of bedding to absorb the
liquid and keep the animals clean.
Another way is to pile the manure in
a pit and keep 1t thoroughly wet This
will exclude the air and keep in the
carbon dioxide Under these condi-
ton the bacteria can not develop and
fermentation can not take place. -

Cattle Bloat.
A good many dairy cattle are lost

will prevent bloat: Six pounds COM
mon table salt, one pound bicarbonate

cattle can go to 1t at any time A
bride bit or rowel is effective as q
preventive OF bloat. Some folks take
a piece Of broom handle or something
of the kind, tying a small rope around
one end. putting the stick in the cows
mouth, passing the rope over the cows
head and tying to other end Of the
stick. When affected with bloat g
COW should be made to stand with the

one hour, an animal is relieved, and no

Care Of Farm lmpIem ents.


One of the most serious leaks on the
farm is in the poor care taken of farm
implements when not in use. AS soon
as the season is over binders and other
machinery, no longer needed this year,
should be carefully cleaned; the grease
and dirt should be removed from the
bearings, and these should be carefully
oiled and all bright parts creased to
prevent rusting. Preparations should
be made for replacing any broken or
defective parts.
If time does not permit OF all this.
make memorandum to be governed
by on some stormy day, and then see
that everything is put in readiness for
the next harvest ting or haying season.
Get the repairs and place them on the
machines at once. Take care OF the
plows. Get them under cover Clean
and grease bright parts, so that when
wanted next spring they will scour and
save the time so many farmers lose by
putting their implements into working
order.-Farmers' and Drovers' Jour-
nal

serious indigestion Of the animals, but
1t may cause scours, and that disease
never fails to stunt the calves, and IN
many instances puts an end to their
existence. Scours is also often caused
by overlooking, and there is no doubt
that more calves are killed by over
feeding than by undertaking, hence
great care should be taken to feed the
calf the proper amount of milk, at the
proper time and in a sanitary manner.
The practice of feeding calves sweet
milk one day and sour milk the next,
can not be too strongly condemned 1t
is a proven fact, however, that good
calves can be raised on sour milk, but
when the feeding of sour milk has once
been started, it should be continued.
otherwise poor results are sure to fol-
low.
The practice followed by some. OF
keeping the calls milk in a swill bar
rel is bad one, as such a receptacle
is never kept clean, and clean milk fot
the calf is necessary If you want to
make success of calf raising. The
man who raises good calves, stands a
much better chance of producing good
COWS, than does the man who gives no
thought or care to this very important
branch of dairy farming.

parent, however, that if such a bill
goes through Bennington will be well
cared for therein.
The House Committee on Public
Buildings and Grounds has a bill
framed and ready for consideration
should it be determined by the House
to pass such a bill. Congressman
Foster has succeeded in having the
provisions of his bill in behalf of
Bennington incorporated in this
pending bill providing for an appro-
priation of $4,000 for a post office
building in the Monument town.
Two years ago Mr.. Fost .r secured
an appropriation of $4,000 with
which to purchase a site and the
Treasury Department reports that
the site has been bought and paid
for. 1t is believed that $4,000 will

VILLAGE ALMOST DESTROYED.

About $4,000.

Middlebury, May 1S.-Lack of
adequate fire fighting apparatus
caused property loss of about $685.
600 in Salisbury, village six miles
from here, early this morning from
a fire which swept the business sec
tion of the town. The blaze was dis
covered at o'clock in the general
merchandise store of Judge Frank

clerk who was sleeping in the build
ing
The fire spread rapidly and by
morning the Dyer store, the Rutland
depot and freight station, the Page
feed store, and grist mill, new
two-story house owned by Mr.. Page
were destroyed.
There was absolutely no means at
hand to check the flames. The post
office was in the Dyer store and all
of the mail and mail bags in the Of
flee were burned.
Diamond was awakened by the
smoke and by what he thought was
an explosion but no cause has yet
been assigned for the fire. A strong
wind was blowing and the flames
quickly spread to the railroad sta
tion and from thence to the Page
property. The north bound Montreal
sleeper over the Rutland road was
held up for several hours,
No attempt has been made yet to
fix the loss accurately but it is esti-
mated this afternoon as being about

Statement Regarding Vatican
Affair Published by Noted
Methodists
NO COUNTER ATTACK
Board of Bishops of the Methodist
Episcopal Church Frame Announce
ment Touching on the Roosevelt In
cident in ROme-Defence of Meth
Ods Used in Italian Missions.

Philadelphia, May 16-The Board
lof Bishops of the Methodist Episcopal
church, through it's secretary, Bishop
l.. B. Wilson tonight issued an Off
cial statement which had been pre-
pared by the Board at it's meeting in
Chicago on May 8. relative to the It.
allan mission. The statement is the
outcome of the recent controversy in
Rome caused by the visit of Theodore
Roosevelt.
The statement follows:
"Deploring and at all times seek
ing to avoid interdenominational
controversy we are nevertheless
compelled to recognize occasions
when personal preference must yield
to a proper sense of official duty.
"We cannot allow to pass unnotic-
ed the recent unprovoked and un-
warranted attempt to discredit one of
our most useful missions by widely
published accusations which if based
upon truth, would bring dishonor
upon the church which supports that
mission.
1--WE regret that after repeated
challenges for details of the specific
acts supposed to justify these charges
they still remain in such general
terms that their validity cannot be
tested before the judgment of the
world. We can only observe
'1.-That ordinarily the use of op-
probrious adjectives is suggestive of
anger rather than of reason.
'2. That the methods of our mis-
sion in Italy, now Tor the first time
thus publicly censured are the same
that have been pursued from the be-
ginning, almost forty years ago.
"3.-That the same methods, name
ly, preaching the gospel in SIM
plicity and conducting schools where
they are needed, schools which recog-
nize the plain teachings of the new
testament as a supreme authority in
religion and ethics, have long been
followed by our missions in South
America and Mexico, as well as in
Rome, and no such Indictment has
been brought against those missions
even to this day, so far as we are in
formed
"4.-From thes- facts the inference
seems to be irresistible that other
considerations than the methods of
our mission in Rome must have been
the real cause of this sudden outcry.
I'VE decline at the present time to
enter upon any counter-attack upon
the Roman Catholic Church. We ask
only that all fair men interested in
the situation study for themselves
its methods of propagandism and the
traditional attitude of that church to-
ward other Christian faiths.
I'VE now content ourselves with af-
firming our entire confidence in the
moral integrity of our missionaries
and methods in Italy, and against the
denunciations of their accusers we
place the wide open record of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, both as
to teaching and method, in America
and throughout the world"
