Domestic Animals.

1910 due to 20 per cent decrease in
the number of colonies.
Domestic Animals.
The total value of domestic animals
sold during 1909 was $5,991.O00, and
that of animals slaughtered on farms
81, 5000, making an aggregate of
$7,459,000. This total, however, in
wolves considerable duplication, re-
sulting from the resale or slaughter
of animals which had been bought by
the farmers during the same year.
The value of the cattle (including
calves sold during 1909 represented
about two-thirds of the total value of
animals sold. The census OF 1900
called for the receipts from the sale
of domestic animals raised on the
farms reporting and the total value of
these slaughtered during 1899, which
amounted, respectively, to $2,786,GO0
and $1,34S,000. The item of sales is
not closely comparable with that OF
1909 when the inquiry covered all
sales whether of animals. raised on
the farms reporting or elsewhere. II
is believed however, that many
cases the returns of 1899 also includ
ed receipts from sales of animals not
actually raised on the farm reporting

SURGICAL WISDOM.
How to Use Turpentine as an Antisep
tic to the Best ADVANTAGE.


One of the most famous surgeons in
New York city has this to say about
the safety Of carbOlic acid, bichloride
OF mercury and other violent poisons
as antiseptics- one OF the best
things and certainly the safest thing
for the layman to use on wounds is
turpentine.
Ordinary turpentine IL rubbed into q
wound which has not bled properly.
provided the wound seems to have
gone through the skin, will not only
act as most powerful germicide, but
will start bleeding, a most desirable
feature when a wound is first received
When free bleeding has begun the tur-
peutine should be washed away with n
little alcohol. This is an absolutely safe
procedure. The wound is then dressed
with any mild antseptic, such as boric
acid or ordinary salt solution, and kept
moist with these solutions"

HOW TO GET RID OF BLUES.
Will Power is a Sure Cure to Drive
Them Away.

How often do you open your eyes in
the morning upon a day whose outlook
seems really too discouraging TO be
faced, when the whole world seems
mixture of lampblack and blung,
when your friends are viewed with n
jaundiced eye and your family seems
sadly in need of reformation, when the
iir you breathe seems laden with
microbes and the sunlight Is filtered
through a cloud of woe and your
thoughts about things in general are
unfit for publication?
What is the matter with you? What
is the difference between yourself of
yesterday and yourself of today? "Oh,
WELL" you say 1--WE got the blues;
that's what's the matter with me-"
And you assume the air of one who
walks alone, shrouded in your own eX
elusive individuality; the laughter of
the light hearted sounds ribald in your
ears and doom and despair and canker
and grief are your portion.
In such a state Of mind how disgust

a poison generated by your emotions
and highly injurious to your tissues If
you persist in them. "But how can
help being bluef" you whine. ITS a

To use the actual language Of

blues may be vested in some weak or

causes. but In the will alone may the
cure for the blues DE found.

Wool.

The total number of sheep OF shear
ing age in Vermont on April 10, 1910,
was 1880, representing a decrease
of53.7 per cent. as compared with
the number on June l. 1900 QS2,lbO.
The approximate production of wool
during 1909 was $1,000 tieeces. weigh
ing 62G.0O0 pounds and valued at
$4,000 OF these totals about
per cent represents estimates. The
number OF feeces produced in 1903
was 52.7 per cent less than in 1899.
The average weight per fleece in 1903
was 90 pounds, as compared with
seven pounds in 1899 and the aver
age value per pound was 81 cents,
as compared with 20 cents in 1899.
Although SO farmers reported -6l
goats and kids on their farms April
10. 1910. only IA reported the pro-
duction OF goat hair or mohair during
1903. These farmers reported ~
fieeces. weighing All pounds and
valued at 1886. Many farmers VINO
have goats do not produce goat hair
or mohair, but it is believed that the
report is somewhat short of the &C
tual production.

Poultry Products.

The total number OF fowls on Yer
mont farms on April 10, 1910, was
93g. 900. OF the 27,52S farms report
ing fowls. 26lS did not report any
eggs produced in 1909, and 4201 did
not report any poultry raised in 1893.
The production of eggs actually re-
ported for the year 1909 was $3.50, coo
dozens. valued at Sl,6040 00 &C
cording to the 18th census reports,
the production of eggs in 1899 was
6.272,O0O dozens the value being $780,
GOO The latter figures. however,
are somewhat in excess of the actual
returns at that census, because they
include estimates made 10 cover
those cases where the schedules re-
ported fowls on hand without report
ing the production of eggs. In order
TO make the returns for 1909 compar-
able with those published for 1899,
similar estimates have been made,
the method of estimate and the JUS
tihcation therefor being substantially
the same as in the case OF wool The
total production of eggs in 1903. IN
GLIDING these estimates. was 7.037.a00
dozens, valued at S1.7l5.000. The
total production of poultry in 1903,
including estimates made on the same
basis as for eggs. was / ,2S3.000 fowls

In 1903. The actual returns show the
production Of l60.2S3 pounds Of honey

LOUISIANA MAN

Fined in Magistrates Court For In. sisting on Negro Boy Accom-

surveyor of the mine company, was sen,s today to his home at Clio. s. C. Roper and the remaining two members of the surveying party were found late last night.
 The death of Roper, the young evil engineer, who entered the ill., fated mine with two boy assistants, is among the most pathetic. The young man went to McCurtain about two years ago. He was a professor for three years in a Georgia military academy. r. is the current talk in McCurtain that he was engaged to be married to a prominent young lady of that place. Following the explosion miners in the camp were of the opinion that young Roper was responsible for the explosion, and this was one of the general topics of discussion during the following day. It was not until the splintered port, ons of the engineers surveying instruments were found near the 12th entry that this rumor was quietad. With every indication pointing te the fact that the explosion originated in the 11th entry and the finding of the instruments further back the slope, and the dead body of the eh gineer nof far distant, it is prac tically certain that the res possibility of the disaster could not have been rested on him. It is evident the Roper was killed instantly. He was struck in the head by flying timbers, perhaps, and win such force that the entire top portion of his skull was carried away. A fine watch Roper carried was Tent a. most double. The body was not re- covered until Thursday afternoon.

GAS FILLING MIN E

Fort Smifh, March 22-A total of 61 bodies had been received from the ill-fated San Bois Coal Company's mine at McCurtain, Okla, at 8 o'clock this morning, and by noon at was expected that in the neighborhood of 75 would be removed from the wrecked entries. The bodies taken out tn S morning were located in the north 12th entry and were horribly mutilated indicating that they were near the spot where the ex- plosion occurred. It is generally ex- pected that the death list will reach 100, and possibly more.
 Among the bodies recovered from the mine so far are those of James Hall, Sam and John Phillips, broth CTS, and Oscar Adams, their brother in-law Their funerals took place to- day. The bodies were buried side by side with one simple ceremony. State Mine Inspector Edward Boyle busied himself today in an effort to deter mine the cause of the explosion. He states the evidence leads him to believe gas was responsible for the catastrophe. It is believed that it will he impossible for several days to determine defin't 'tely what caused the disaster as the wreckage in the mine will prevent hurried inves- tigation. The mine is rapidly fill ,ng up with after-damp and gas, causing much inconvenience 70 the rescuers. The recruiting force has been .n- creased to 75 men and the work Is being carried on with renewed vigor, although no hope is entertained for the remainder of the entombed men. Today marked the first of the fun erals of the victims. A constant string of people wended their way to the village graveyard, where brief services were held. More than 9 bodies were buried this morning. Most of them were removed to tue graves on drays. Several burials took place during The day.
