Y. M. [. 4. ID TEACH
 1. BOYS HOW'T0' SWIM
Lessons to be Given Free Of Charge on June 25, 26 and 28

Through the cooperation of Stan ley H. Holmes and the teachers of the public schools, between 400 and 300 boys will have the opportunity of learning how to swim free of chargc at the Y. M. c. A.. on June 25 26 and and 2s. The names of the boys, wl,o are between the ages of eleven and sixteen and who are unfamiliar with the aquatic art. have been secured Dy the respective teachers and have been supplied to Physical Director K. F. Andrew of the Y. NJ. C. A.
 personal letter has been sent to oh boy, containing a card for .tlsc parents to affix his signature giving consent to have his boy participate in the lessons
 The Young Mems Christian associa- tion of New Britain is splendidlT equipped to teach swimming. Rca- lizing the great need of teaching all boys to swim, the Y. M. c. A. Is fol- lowing it's usual generous precedent in again opening the swimming pool for short period, inviting the boys of the community who are not mem- bers of the Y. M. C. A. to learn to swim.
 The summer vacation period has
 been selected as the best opportunity for teaching as the boys can go to the Y. M c. A. during the day. The swimming lessons will commence the day following the closing of the pub
 lie schools. This is very oppoftuns time as many boys who receive posi- tions for the summer can avail theni-
 selves of the opportunity of learning to swim before commencing thcr work.
 Every precaution will be taken to safeguard the boys while they are learning. The swimming pool will be only half full of water and with 1 two instructors continually present present no possible chance Of an accident can occur, it is thought. All ] boys will be required to bring towel ! and cake of soap, as thorough 1 bath must be taken before the swim 1 with a dry rub on coming out. !. Those boys who wish to take ad- vantage of the opportunity are re- l quested to present themselves at the 1 Y. M C..

FIFTEEN YEAR OLD
 BOY HITS MOTHER
Morris Cohen Furnishes Excitement and Drives Dad to Wood
 Shed.

Tn addition to two trunks in court this morning Morris Cohen was charged with breach of the peace and assault on his mother, and Adam Cook was charged with non n-support.
 Mrs. Cook, who has had her hus- band arrested on other occasions, said her husband has not worked in three months Last week the wife herself went to Corbin's and secured employ ment for her husband. but instead of going to work Cook went to saloon and stayed there. Mrs. Cook went to work while her husband went on a drunk she said. Cook said he couldn't get job because he can't read English. Prosecutor Klett ex- plained to Judge kirkham that when he is not in jail Cook Is on one con- tinuous debauch
 The accused will be compelled to go to work and support his family. The case was then adjourned to June 26 to give Cook a chance to get q job.
 Morris Cohen, aged fifteen, pleaded not guilty to assaulting Bessie Cohen, his mother. Officer Souney arrested the boy last night and found him bleeding from the nose. Witnesses said that the boy was so mad he in- ficted the bloody nose on himself. He then got knife and was trying to wield it when it was taken from him. Mrs. Cohen said her son is a bad boy and although he works after school he spends all his money. Last night he came hame and threw chair and dishes at her when she told him to behave
 Last Saturday the boy bought re- volver and insisted on shooting it in the house, said his brother. Morris said his folks are not telling the truth and that his brother hit him in the nose last night.
 The boys father declared that his son is very bad and whippings do no good. He sleeps outside in shed be- cause the boy makes so much trouble in the house at night that he can not stand it.
 Judge Kirkham said he wanted to give the boy chance and placed him in care of the probation officer for one month. after threatening him with the reform school.

also be pastured on an acre of clover.
Good Judgment necessarily must be
used in this matter. Overpasturing is
not desirable. but an effort should be
made to keep enough animals ON each
acre Of pasture to keep the grass eaten
down before 1t attains rank growth.
Swine eat only the short and tender
grass. Few Of the rank and coarse
stems are consumed. In case a suf-
ficient number of animals to keep the
grass eaten down cannot be kept In a
field, as soon as the clover blossoms
1t should be moved and cured for hay.
after which a new growth will start,
which the pigs will relish. In this
way the maximum results from the
clover will be secured
Another point that should be consid.
cred is that in order to get the great
est benefits from the pasturage grain
must be fed in connection Herewith.
as the grass alone furnishes only a lit
tie more than a sustaining ration. and
progress without some grain will be
slow. Where hogs have the run of

ously determined that they should have

corn as when corn alone is fed

HORSES IN SPRING.

Changes Of Ration Should Be Made
Slowly and With Care.
When spring work approaches the
feed can gradually be increased. not
perhaps to hard working ration. but
materially above the winter ration.
says Professor Van Els. North Dakota
experiment station. In horses which
during the winter have acquired what
We commonly call hay belly. the
roughage ration must be shortened and
the shortage compensated for by a
corresponding increase above the nor
NAL increase of the winter ration.
In all horse feeding we still must
attach the greatest Importance to hay
and oats. and in preparing the horse
for spring work we should confine our
selves to these articles Of diet 1t is
proper to add little corn to the ra-
ton after work is we'll under way and
when the horses commence to show u
little wear and tear on this account
When work actually begins the
horses must be used with considerable
caution, because no matter how judi
ciously we have fed and managed them
during the winter the lack of muscular
strain will have produced little "soft-
ness" which can only be overcome by
bringing the animals by degrees up to
their accustomed labor capacity.

TALKING BY TELEPHONE.
Contrary to Popular Belief Wires Do
Not Carry Sound Waves.

The popular idea is that the tele-
phone in common use is but an I'M
proved and perfected toy ''tcle-
phone" This consists of two sound
ing boxes at either end Of a cord or
wire. The sound waves or vibrations
set up among the particles of air by
the vocal chords of the speaker
strike the nearest sounding box in
rapid succession and cause it to vi
brate in unison. These vibrations
actually travel along the line to the
other sounding box, whence they
are transmitted again to the air,
and, still unchanged, to the ear of
the listener. This method of COM
munication does not differ essen
TALLY from signaling by tapping
rails.
The telephone works on an entire
ly different principle. Sounds are
not carried across the telephone
wires. AS sounds they get no fur
ther than the transmitter. In this
they cause a diaphragm to vibrate,
the movements Of this set up rapid
changes in the strength of the cleo
trio current on the line, these
changes corresponding in period
and phrase to the original vibra-
tions of the voice. These electric
waves in turn effect corresponding
fluctuations in the strength of an
electro magnet at the other end of
the line. The successive and vary
ing tfpulls" of the electro magnet
repeatedly attract metallic disc, so
that it vibrates in manner similar
to the diaphragm of the transmitter
and thus reproduces the speakers
voice.
The entire series of actions is al
most instantaneous. The sensitive
transmitter converts every vibration
of the speakers voice into a differ
ent kind of vibration which has no
relation to sound except in that it is
subject to the same variations of
rapidity. It is these vibrations of
electric current, and not those Of
sound, that are carried over the
wire, at the other end of which. by
a reverse process, the receiver turns
them back again into sound vibra-
tions, the cups and downs" of which
correspond in speed and intensity
with those of the electric current
and ultimately with that Of the
original sound, so that the sound
reproduced. though not quite identi-
cal, is very similar to the speakers
voice.-New York World.

CLOVER FOR SWINE.
Brood Sows and Their Litters Should
Be Fed on Pasture.

Be Fed on Pasture.
The number of hogs that can be kept
on an acre of clover pasture naturally
depends upon the kind and size of the
hogs and the natural fertility and pro-
ductiveless Of the land on which the
clover is growing, writes w. F. Purdue
in the National Stockman. Much also
depends on the weather. for II there is
an abundance of rainfall more feed
will be produced on given area than
during dry season.
In estimating the number of animals
that an acre of pasture will support it
should be remembered that individuals
of the improved breeds that have been
well handled and fed on variety OF
feeds will eat more grass and get more
out Of 1t than animals that have been
confined in yards and pens and fed al
most entirely on concentrates. With
the latter class the stomachs have not
been expanded. and they are not capa.
BILE Of holding much coarse feed. and
consequently such hogs cannot give as
good returns for grass consumed.
1t is safe to say that pigs weighing
from 125 to $50 pounds will consume
ten to twelve quarts of grass per day
while being fed slops and fairly good
ration Of grain feeds. An acre OF
clover growing on good rich soil in the
early part of the season will furnish
pasture for at least ten pigs Of the
size mentiOned- FOur or five brood
sows. with their litters Of pigs. can
