OVER 100 ATTEND
FARMERS MEETING
MEETING LAST FRIDAY NIGHT
PROVES TO BE BEST OF THE
SEASON in SPITE OF WARM
WEATHER.

The meeting of the Prosper Farm
ers' club held last Friday evening
was a great success. The school house
proved to be by far too small to hold
the large crowd that assembled at
the meeting. Many We're compelled to
be content with standing on the out
side and looking in at the windows.
Several people were noticed to be in
attendance from adjoining townships.
There is no doubt but the crowd in
attendance at this meeting numbered
at least one hundred citizens of the
vicinity.
The program consisted of discus
sions related to the profit gained
from an investment in a silo. The dis
c~ussions were led by farmers from
the immediate vicinity who simply
gave what their experience had given
them from actual investments in a
silo. Those who listened to the pro-
gram could not help but be impressed
with the enthusiasm shown by those
farmers in favor of the silo.
Chas. Boreson who is M of the
largest cattle feeders in the county
gave his experience with the two
large cement siles that he had con-
structed on his farm in Rome town
ship last yea". MIR. Boreson fed about
500 head of cattle the past year and
stands in a good position to speak
with authority as to the value of a
silo to the man who is feeding stock.
Mr.. Boreson was very fair and rath-
err conservative in his estimates of
the profit derived from his invest
ment as was evidenced by his talk.
He says that he derived an increased
feeding value of at least 25 per cent
from the same acreage through the
building of the silos. He is a very
strong advocate of the cement silo.
e. p. Sand, one of the foremost
dairymen OF the vicinity discussed the
silo from the standpoint of the prac-
tical dairyman. Mr.. Sand has invest
ed in two stave silos which he main
tains have brought in profits to him
in his dairy business equally as great
as to Mr.. Boreson in his cattle feed
ing experience. Mr.. Sand also gave
many helpful suggestions as to the
selection of a good dairy COW. His
talk was very much enjoyed by those
who we're so fortunate as to hear it.
1t may safely be predicted from the
interest that was evidenced. in this
matter that a number of the farm
ers of this vicinity will invest in silos
the coming year. At each meeting of
this live organization those present
cannot help but be impressed with
the value to be derived from the
regular meeting of the people of the
community to discuss the important
problems that confront them and get
the foremost citizens of their neigh
borhood who have no other motive
than that the development and grow
tn of their common vicinity to the
best possible degree. The organiza-
ton is also proving to be of much
importance as a social factor in max
ing possible the meeting of the peo-
pie more often than before it was
formed.
The next meeting will be held Fri
day evening June 81. Prof. Jones
of the university will be the speaker
of the evening. He will give an illu-
strated talk on the dairy cow. There
will be a number of lantern slides.

STAGE "Fire Doda,I

Here is an instance which, for simon
pure stupidity, has rarely been equal
ed. writes Mary Shaw In the London
Strand. A stage manager sent list
Of properties to a small place ahead,
naming, among other things, dogs for
the fireplace" When the company ar
rived, late in the afternoon, they found
six or eight ours dashed up in the the
alter. barking and yelDing and tuggine
at their chains. The stage manager,
not knowing what these CANNES were
there for, took no notice Of them, but
began going over his props" With
the property man at his elbow he ran
down the list, asking what he could
get and what he could not get. Pres.
emily he came to the item and asked,
what about the dogsl"
"Well," answered the man, pointing
to the yelpers, these were all could
get"
The stage manager for the first time
realized what the ours were for, but
he didn't want to give the local prop
erty man away before the others, so
he very seriously and critically IN
spected the dogs and then said, shak-
ing his head almost sadly:
I'm afraid they aren't Just the
right kind You had better send them
back"

There are few colder places on a
winters night than the streets of Lon
don. Naturally anything warm is wei
coined by wayfarers. Roasted chest
nuts and hot pies stand high in public
favor. Out the cry of Baked potatoes,
all hot!' is peculiarly inviting. The
simplest form of potato can-really
more like box than can-is Of plain,
implanted tin. not unlike that used by
the street pieman. In the central por-
ton the potatoes are kept hot, while
In compartments on each side salt and
butter are kept. A large pepper box
usually stands on the top of the can.
A small valve lets out the steam, and
Its whlstling guides the traveller IN
search Of hot potato Street corners,
where an omnibus stops or near places
Of amusement, are favorite spots for
the vendors of this delicacy. The sea
son lasts from the latter part Of Sep
TENDER until about the end Of March.
1t is said that more than 5000 people
gain their livelihood in this way in the
streets of London.

How Names Are Changed.

There was a curious transformation
Of names among the refugees who
locked to England after the revolu.
ton of the edict Of Nantes. Many OF
the Huguenots translated their names
into English, sometimes with a slight
alteration Of the sense. Boileau be-
came Drinkwater; Delamere, Bythesea;
Jolifemme, Prettyman; Loiseau, Bird;
Lefevre, Smith; Dubois, Wood, and
Savage, Savage or Wild.
Some names became so corrupted as
to be unacceptable. Chapuis became
Shoppee; Beaufoy, Boffin, and Condo,
Cundy. Similar havoc. though on a
less extensive scale, has been played
with English names In France. Ma
zarin's successor, Colbert, descended
from an Engllshman named Cuthbert,
and the real name Of the famous art
list who decorated Versailles was not
Le Brun, but Brown. And we may
counter that with the Tolfers, who are
the Taillefers of France.

Musical Sound and the Ear

The well trained ear of musician
can distinguish notes differing only
one-hundredth part Of tone from one
another. Most people cannot perceive
a difference Of one-tenth of tone, and
a few can scarcely tell one tone from
another The cause Of this curious dis
parity resides In slight differences in
the structure OF the cochlea, a wonder.

East Indian Acrobata.

The wandering acrobats of India,
says writer in the Wide World, are
recruited from a low caste of people
called "Dombaranos," who live by this
profession alone. The children are
trained from their earliest childhood
and do not receive any education in
schools. They travel from village to
town and give their performances,
which are really wonderful, In the open
air before crowds Of onlookers. Their
tricks are quaint and sometimes aston
ishingly clever. Supported by one an
other, these men will balance them
selves in a crazy kind Of pyramid rising
fifteen or twenty feet from the ground,
and one Of their number will then
climb this living pyramid with heavy
weight in his teeth. Babies not yet
able to walk are often seen being made
use Of in the most dangerous manner
during these performances. Rajahs
and rich Indians are very fond of the
acrobatlc displays and engage the best
Of the men to perform before their
guests at entertainments.
