WOODSTOCK MARRIAGE
ENDS IN DIVORCE SUIT
Mrs. Augustus knight Cobb Fisk Is Ask
ing for 100000 Alimony After
Short Time with Augustus
r. Fisk.

Boston, March 3.--Mrs. Augustus
Knight Cobb Fisk, whose marriage to
Augustus r. Fisk of Woodstock, VT, III
Boston, Dec. ID, 1912, furnished a SEN
sation, is seeking divorce. She also
asks 100000 alimony, one of the larg-
est on record in New England. Stat
uatory offences and gross and confirmed
habits of intoxication are given as the
grounds for divorce.
1t is the second time Mr., Fisk has
been defendant in divorce action, his
first wife, formerly Miss Edith Ceilings,
daughter of the Standard Oil represen-
tative in Cincinnati, having obtained a
divorce. Fisk and his present wife met
at Woodstock, shortly after Mrs. Fisk's
first husbands death and his own sep
aration by divorce. After an ardent
courtship, they were married here, in
order to avoid the Vermont law pro-
hibiting persons from remarrying.
A special permit to marry was OBJ
tanned in municipal court, so that the
five days notice required by law could
be overcome and the marriage take place
before the Vermont law became effective.
The intention was to have the wedding
at Kings chapel and their friends gath
cred there for the wedding. The Rev.
Howard N. Brown, rector of the chapel,
on account of the notoriety the case had
received, declined to marry them and
they went to the Suffolk county court
house and were married by Clerk In
gals. They went to Woodstock to live,
but after short time there was sep
aration and Mrs. Fisk returned to Bos-
ton. She is now staying at Hotel Can
terbury.
Clark G. Fits, former attorney gen.
eral of Vermont, is Mrs. Fisk's counsel.
Fisk at present is in Texas, where he
went after leaving a sanatorium in New
York a few weeks ago.

THE SUcCULENT GOOSE
One Way to Enrich Poor Pastures
E. KNEELAND

A friend of mine was always COM
planning about his poor pasture land
but as he never seemed inclined to rem
edy matters in the ordinary way,
asked him one day why he did not put a
| flock of geese on ii and make good
money, not only by having fine birds to
sell for market, but also to enrich his
soil, as stocking land with geese is an
excellent way to enrich land quickly.
He was little doubtful at first, but it
turned out admirably, and now his fine
Toulouse geese are sought by some of
the fancy butchers in high-priced
markets, and in three years from the
time he bought his flock his pasture was
as good as any on the farm.
His growing pride and interest in his
flock well repaid him for extra labor,
and some of the facts he learned in re-
gard to them We're that geese are less
liable to disease than any other domestic
fowl and are longer lived. Some breeds
lay forty eggs during the season, and
one curious phase of this bird is that
the ganders are as good, and sometimes
better, mothers than the geese, being
watchful and careful with the gosIings.
Two days after Matching the young ones
should be given plenty of green and ten
der food, such as grass or lettuce, and
although at first they eat little, especial
ly in summer, gradually they become
ready for all you can give them. 1t
is about two months and half before
they are ready for market, and, besides
the necessary grit and water which they
should always have within easy reach,
a good fattening food is eornmeal mixed
with water until it is crumbly and
about is per cent. meat scraps added
to il,
Never let those young goslings get
wet, and they should not be allowed to
attempt swimming until the breasts are
we'll feathered out. February is the
month geese begin laying, and the larger
breeds are not apt TO lay until full
year old, but then will average some
twenty goslings year. The best breed
ers are apt TO be those between three
and four years old, and it is a good plan
to mate them some time before the lay
ing season begins, usually one gander
to four geese. 1t will take a goose
month to hatch her eggs, and it takes
good twenty-four hours for the bird to
get out of the shell satisfactorily. My
friend also found a very profitable
source of income from his fine goose
feathers, claiming they yielded him
about So per pair of birds yearly which
made very substantial addition to the
profit derived from each bird.

TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS FEWER.
Snowstorm by Preventing Speeding Cuts
Down Fatalities.

New York, March 3.--Fewer persons
were killed in the streets of New York
by traffic accidents during February than
during any month since February, 1911
according to the report Of the National
Highways Protective society, made pub
lie yesterday. In the last month eight
persons were killed by automobiles, 10
by trolley cars and two by wagons, a
total of 20 as compared with four by
automobiles and one by trolley in Feb

fic accidents was due largely to the big
snowstorm which prevented speeding and
heavy traffic.
