CONN. RIVER IS
 STILL RISING
 AT HARTFORD

Hartford, March 29.@The Connecti- cut river is still rising at this city but the crest of the flood will, it is be- 1feved, be reached, late this afternoon 25 feet 8 inches. It is expected to go 26 feet. This will flood the upper story of the steamboat landing, the water now being within an inch or two of the floor and the officers and clerks will be driven out.
 The Hartford and New York steam CTS are no longer running on the riv- CT, having been with drawn Friday night. Their run is now between Say brook Point and New York. Hartford freight intended for steamboat trans portation is being loaded into freight cars from the boulevard, some roads north of the steamboat dock and ship ped to Saybrook Point. Yesterday, a barge was launched at the shipyard on the east side of the river. She was nearly afIoat because of the freshet and all that was necessary was a strong pull by a tugboat.
 7. Commerce street for nearly it's whole length parallel with the river is cut off entirely and navigated by row boats. Another six or eight inch rise would neeessitate the shutting down of certain industries on the east side.
 The water has threatened the fur naces of the Commerce street station of the electric light company for hours. The children of the Meadow school in East Hartford have been driven out by the flood, the house be- ing surrounded.
 Only four occasions since the record flood of 1854 in the Connecticut has the water risen as high as 26 feet. The highest previous was in April 1862 when it went Sup to 2S feet 8 inches.

Feeding Dry Cows.

Professor Hacker, one of the best
authorities in the country, gives the
following advice regarding the feed.
ing of dry COWS:
During the eight or ten weeks
that COWS go dry their food should
be chiefly roughage. A daily allow
ance of two pounds of bran or oats,
or a mixture of two parts each bran
and oats and one part of linseed
meal or corn oil-meal, makes a
proper feed for COW near calving.
Some roots, cabbage, pumpkins, or
squashes are also very good. Highly
carbonaceous roughage, such as straw
and corn stalks, is not good at this
particular time. Such feeds, with
cold water, cold drafts: or lying out
at night on damp or frozen ground,
are the chief causes of caked udder
or garget.

Doesn't Come Up to Standard

The latest candidate to get into

will cut much of figure in the race,
as he is hardly recognized as measur-
