TRAIN COLLISION
INJURED TWO MEN
Milk Train Struck Rear of Freight on
Boston & Maine Railroad in Fairlee
Yesterday Forenoon.

Farlee. March 9.-As the result of a
rear-end collision between an extra
freight and a milk train on a sharp
curve one mile north of Ely station
of the Boston & Maine road in this
town, shortly after 10 o'clock yesterday
morning, two men were seriously hurt
and three freight cars and caboose de-
rallied and burned.
Members of the crew of the freight
bound from Berlin, n H., to White Riy-
they saw the locomotive of the milk
train suddenly appear in their wake,
bearing down upon the caboose at high
speed.
All but one of the men, brakeman
by the name of Cook, escaped unhurt.
Cook landed heavily on the embankment
sustaining injuries to his back.
The freight train, heavily loaded, was
proceeding at a slow rate of speed
when the accident occurred The milk
train southbound from Newport to Bos-
ton was late and the engineer was
crowding his locomotive to make up
time.
Shooting around the curve, both en-.
gineer and fireman Muzzey saw the
freight ahead at the same time. The
emergency brakes were applied, too late,
however, to avert the crash.
The impact hurled the caboose and
three cars of the freight off the irons.
Fireman Muzzey was seriously in
jured when the crash came He stuck
to his post as did the engineer. His
head came in contact with the sides of
the cab and he was rendered partly UNI
conscious. Exerting great effort the en-
gineer brought the milk train to stop.
In spite of the efforts of the crews of
both trains to prevent it, fire started
soon after the collision in the debris of
the wrecked caboose and before it was
extinguished the buggy" and three cars
were destroyed together with their con-
tents.
Brakeman Cook and Muzzey were re-
moved to a nearby house and later
taken to their home in Newport.

tain as much nitrogen as is required in
the production of forty-bushel corn
crop and less than one-third the amount
removed by a heavy crop of cabbage
In fact, all the nitrogen demanded by
common farm and garden crops cannot
be proftably supplied by commercial
fertilizers. To build up soil in nitrogen
recourse must be had to the growing
for manurial purposes oil leguminous
plants, such as peas, beans, vetehes, es-
pecially clovers, all OF which gather nj
troQen from the air. A complete fer
tilizer for the legumes need contain only
phosphoric acid and potash, but the
sweetening of soil by an occasional lin.
ing will be Of benefit to them and to the
garden crops. Clover should be sown
freely in midsummer wherever possible.
Finally. as result of the applications
of manure, fertilizers, Time and the
growing of legumes, fertility of soil is
built up.

where Is Your Memory located

In the March American Magazine II
Arlington Bruce writes an article en-
titled ''The Souls Winning Fight with
Science" in which he shows that science
is no longer at war with mans belief in
the Immortality of the soul. in the
course of the article appears the follow
ing interesting passage which tells of the
memory:
1T is one of the fundamental tenets
Of modern physiology that every
thought, every sensation, is accompanied
by some change in the substance of the
brain; and not only this, but that the
brain stuff is constantly passing away
and being replaced in such fashion that
it has been estimated there is an entire
renovation on an average of every seven
years. How, then, no matter how much
we strain the hypothesis of memory
cells, neural paths and other material
adluncts to the memory process, can the
new brain of the amnesic revive the
memories belonging to the brain of four
teen years before?
For that matter, and quite apart
from the poser presented by amnesias
of this prolonged character, the proven
ably stressed, by not few animists, as
affording of itself sufficient evidence that
the something which remembers is a
something other than the brain. "The
old man of seventy observes one able
critic of the materialstic doctrine-I
had almost written dogma has usual
ly many clear memories of his sayings
and doings, OF bis thoughts and feelings,
when little lad of ten. He has only to
make an effort OF the will, and the past
Of long, long ago stands up ghost-like
before him.
In what compartment of his pres
ent brain had these images lain sleep
ingg In which hemisphere In both, or
in neither And how came the images
imprinted on the childish brain of ten
to be passed on, in innumerable trans
missions, through many successive
brains, till they reached their aast edi-
ton on the aged brain of seventy, or,
rather, on the new brain of the aged
man of seventy
Finally, and most important ques
ton of all where is that inexplicable
entity which consciously and deliber-
ately wills to resee. rehear, and refeel
its memories of long ago?
is it not the same entity so far as
any entity in the universe can be re-
garded as constant--that, with diff
ferent brain, first saw, heard, and felt
the actualities of which the memories
have been transmitted to the brain with
which it sees, hears, and feels other ac
Qualities to-day? While the material
brain changes. 1.-THE seeing, hearing,
feeling, thinking soul-remains.'

THE BUSINESS
FARMERS CORNER
THE PREVENTION OF POULTRY
DISEASES
JOHN r. BOWIE.

JOHN r. BOWIE.
Fowls are liable to be affected by a
number Of diseases and may also be in
fected by various kinds OF parasites
which live on the surface of the body
and also in the crop, stomach or mtes-
tines taking the nourishment which
should be used to put on flesh or produce
eggs and also cause irritation and In
flammation.
The contagious diseases produced by
animal and vegetable germs are the most
important the poultrymen has to con-
slider in trying to keep his birds healthy
These germs and the parasites should
be kept out preferably by preventive
measures, although there are cases where
medicines may be advantageously given.
As a rule, however, it is better to Kill
sick fowl, the cost of treatment being
greater than the value of the birds.
Moreover, the spread of contagious di.
sease is also there.
Starting Right
TO start right, then, set eggs from
flock which has shown no indications OF
contagious disease for at least year;
avoid putting these eggs in packing such
as chaff, etc, which may be musty or
moldy; wipe them with cloth wet in
10 to so per cent. alcohol and hatch
them in thoroughly cleansed incubator.
The young chicks should then be free
from parasites and injurious germs of all
kinds, and to keep them so put them
to run only upon ground which has not
been used for fowls for several years.
Should hens be used for Matching the
chicks pick out those known to be heal
thy and dust well with lice powder be-
fore setting. Their nests should be per-
feetly clean, and there should be a box
of road dust or sifted hard coal ashes I'M
der cover where they can dust them
selves. When the young chicks are ia
ken from the nest examine carefully for
lice These parasites accumulate under
the throat and on the top and back of
the head, and If any are found rub
little sweet oil, pure lard or vaseline
with the finger over the parts where the
lice are.
BY starting thus a flock may be raised
free from disease germs and
parasites, but to keep germs and para
sites from developing and increasing to a
dangerous extent, the hens must be kept
clean, the drinking fountains and feed
troughs washed every day or two with
boiling water, and if any mites are found
on the birds or in their houses, the roosts
and adjoining parts Of the walls should
be sprayed with good disinfectant used
in connection with freshly slaked lime.

As an all round means of soil improve
ment no other material equals manure.
Frequently, however people want to
know what to use to supplement INSULT
cient supply of manure. If nothing be
known about the special needs of the
soil use high grade complete fertilizer,
such as truck growers make One thou
sand or 1900 pounds per acre is not too
much, and this amount may be applied
broadcast and mixed throughout the soil.
However, a part may be saved for the
row or in the hill for crops like potatoes,
tomatoes, etc.
But will even 800 pounds per acre of
high grade complete fertilizer build up
the fertility of the soil2 The answer is
quite simple. Fifteen hundred pounds
of fertilizer contain several times the
phosphoric acid removed by heavy crop
Of vegetables, and the unused portion
will remain in soil for the benefit Of
succeeding crops, The supply of potash
need not give concern, but the weakness
of the fertilizer Is the low content Of
the high priced element, nitrogen.
Use Care in Selection.
A comparison of the proportions of
plant-food elements present in fertilizers
with those found in crops will make this
point clear. Take corn, for example.
In mature plants for every ten pounds
of phosphorio acid are found twenty
three pounds of potash and thirty-two
pounds of nitrogen, but in common
brand of truckers fertilizer for every
ten pounds of phosphoric acid are four
pounds of potash and only three and
one-third pounds of nitrogen. Thus 500
pounds of such fertilizer does not con-
