EAST MIDDLEBURY.

Mr.. and Mrs. Clayton Kirby and fam
lily of Worcester, Mass, are visiting
their people here.
James Kirby had the misfortune to
fall from his piazza, seriously injuring
himself.
The frosts Of the past week spoiled
nearly all the gardens that were well
advanced. and the large amount of rain
is making the destruction complete.
The Memorial day programme, Mon
day, May, 30, was of an unexceptionally
high character. The address by Rev.
DIR. d. II. Cochran was very instruc-
tive, and his presentation of facts re-
aiding the negro and conditions in the
South, coming from one of southern
birth, was needed by all to be fair and
unbiased. The recitations at the ceme-
terry were given in pleasing manner,
and the recital of jessie Turner at the
church was a leading feature of the
service.

A Pert Reply,

A story told of Sir John Fisher and
Lord Charles Beresford when both
were stationed in the Mediterranean
will bear repeating. A competition
had been held at Malta for a prize
annually presented by Sir John. 1t is
known as the Malta cup, and. having
so far always been won by a crew
belonging to the admiraps flagship, II
was fully expected by Sir John that
this record would be maintained. On
this particular occasion, however, a
crew of the Families. commanded by
Lord Charles Beresford, carried it off
instead. A day or two later the feet
was practicing maneuvers. and Adj
miral Fisher. whose reputation as
stern disciplinarian is we'll known.
was dissatisfied with the performance
Of the Families. He signaled accord
ingly to its commander the message.
Explain your reason for being late
in executing maneuver." Without
moments delay the answer came, I'VE

PAPER CAR WHEELS.
Safer and Stronger but More Costly
Than Other Wheels.

Than Other Wheels.
We naturally think of paper as
something lacking In strength and of
q paper article as being fragile, so are
somewhat alarmed when an encyclo-
pedic friend remarks that the wheels
Of the car on which we are slipping
along at the rate of a mile n minute
are made of paper. This opportunity
to be alarmed occurs, however. on
only the best of railways, as paper
car wheels. though safer and longer
lived than any others, are also more
expensive. The principal advantage
Of wheels made from this unpromising
material is found In the fact that they
are not injured by the violent vibra.
tons to which car wheels are sub
jected.
The paper used In the manufacture
Of these wheels is known as calen-
dered rye straw board. or thick paper.
1t is sent to the car wheel shops in
circular sheets measuring twenty-five
to forty inches in diameter, and over
each Of these sheets is spread an even
coating of -four paste. A dozen sheets
lot subjected to hydraulic pressure of
500 tons OF more. After two hours
pressure these sheets. which have now
become q solid block, are kept for a
week In a drying room at tempera.
ture of 100 degrees, after which a
number of blocks are pasted together,
pressed and dried for a second week.
A third combination of layers is then
made. after which there is an entire
month Of drying. The final block con.
tains 120 to 100 sheets of the original
paper and is four and one-hah to five
inches In thickness. All resemblance
to paper has been lost, the block in
weight, density and solidity approx
mating the finest grained. heaviest
metal.
To complete the wheel there are re-
quired a steel tire, cast iron hub.
wrought iron plates to protect the pa.
per on either side and two circles of
bolts. one set passing through the
flange Of the tire. the other through
the fange of the hub and both sets
through the paper. The paper blocks
are turned on a lathe. which also
reams out the center hole for the hub.
Two coats of paint are applied to keep
out moisture. The various parts are
next assembled. and the paper car
wheel is complete.
AS may be readily understood. paper
which has received the treatment de-
scribed may be used for almost any
purpose for which metal 'or wood is
used If not too much exposed to damp
ness, and to all practical purposes It
is fireproof.-Harpers

Oswald, a witty and original Pari-

ing He was very amusing to his
friends. but when his talents were ex-
erted to avenge some wrong there
was more bitterness than fun in his
wit. One evening when a man who
had not treated him politely gave a re-
ception he revenged himself cruelty.
The man was slightly deformed- All

Der, presented themselves at his re-
ception. They had received notices
from Oswald that If they should go to
this address on this evening they
would learn of legacy which had
been left them.

Feeding csIvo. In summ.r.

In warm weather calves should be
kept I'm during the daytime and
turned out during the evening, so as
to avoid the hot sun snd the Gies.
Whole or chopped oats should be fed
or a mixture OF whole and chopped
oats. About cupful twice a day for
an ordinary sized calf that Il on good
pasture Will be sufficient. For fall
feeding until the roots are harvested
there IS nothing equal to green corn
run through the cutting box and mixed
with some chopped oats.
The main point In feeding IL never
to allow calves 20 stop growing ana
to keep beef animals always in good
flesh. In feeding calves. as in every
system OF feeding, the extremes of over
and under feeding are to be avoided.
Continuous. regular. liberal feeding al
ways brings the most profit and the
best practical results.--D. O. Anderson.

Amount Of Grain on Pasture.

Growing or fattening pigs cannot be
produced satisfactorily on pasture
alone, but grain ration is necessary.
The Montana experiment station found
that hogs fed a full grain ration on
pasture gained on an average I.30
pounds per hog per day and required
AZ pounds OF grain for 100 pounds OF
gain. Hogs fed a half ration OF grain
gained .9S pound per hog per day and
required POI pounds of grain for 100
pounds OF gain. Thus II will be seen
that the hogs fed full grain ration
ON pasture made more rapid gains, but
consumed much more grain for every
100 pounds OF gain
