VENICE, Dec. 21.-An op. portunity to see the destruc- tive effect of the bomb raids on Venice was given today tC The Associated Press, when an inspection under official escort was made of the havoc and ruin in the famous old church of the Scalzi, one of the art monuments of the world, now a wreck with its roof blown off, it's massive walls tottering, and the fa- nous ceiling freSco by Tie polo, valued at a million francs, lying in heaps of rub biSh in the ruins of the big building. There have been three bomb raids on Venice, but this was the worst, and the historic church bore the full brunt of it.
 Approaching the massive edifice, one sees a gaping hole in the roof, extending from front to rear. The facade, fronting the Grand Canal, is intact, and three sculptured figures standing along the cornice remain un- touched. But back of the figures the roof sags away in curved line down ward and then up again to the rear wall, as though some giant hand had reached down and torn out the wno:> top of the church, leaving only the front and the rickety side walls still intact Workmen can be seen high asove beginning the work of salvage and repair, and heavy timbers are be- ing laced across the gaping hole left by the bomb.
 Entering the historic church scene of havoc and ruin is presented-twfst- ed beams and arches, panels and col umns of alabaster crushed into bits and lying around in heaps, the richly carved pulpit blown to pieces with only a faint outline of it's former wonders remaining, and above, the roof wide open to the sky, wit hthe wonderful frescos of Tiepolo dumped in huge masses of debris on the stone pave ment Fain edges of the grand old frescos still cling to the side walls, giving some idea of the beauties of the work torn away.
 Six enormous arches spanned the edifice meeting in the middle, and git- ing an intervening space for these frescos. Not vestige remains of the

 $375O to $50, and sows were knocked
 down at from $50 to $1O0.
 All hogs sold were registered and ear-marked. Mir. Owen being credited with being one of the most prominent hog men in the county and known far and wide as a breeder of high-class stock.
 It developed at the sale that a 59- day-old pig weighed 65% pounds, said to establish a record in the United States. This pig was not sold as MT. Owen refused any price for the porker. T. J. West, we'll known as a cotton compress man, exhibited rare knowI- edge in the selection of hogs, purchas- ing 4S head for total of $1,652. MT. West paid the record price for a su,,. $1OO; also bought 35 pigs under four months. Willoughby & Sons bought 20 head, Tom Daly paying S33O for eight head, and E. T. Utman paying $457 for F head.
 Heckert Brothers, of Westmoreland, who contemplates starting a large hog ranch, made good purchases. Thad- deus White made one of the best buys = the afternoon, stated Auctionee Stanton, when a SOW and 10 pigs were sold to him for $9O.
 MT. Owen was we'll pleased with he results of the sale and paid Auc- tioneers Stanton and Wachtel Bros. ! high compliment at the close of the ! sale. H. H. Griswold, clerk, who is in the regular ranch sales, but who heretofore has not officiated | at registered sale, was highly com ! plimented by Auctioneer Stanton, a complete record of all the registry marks and prices having been kept by | he clerk without an error developing. |

 The high altar, with spirial aIabaster
 columns and rich decorations, is not
 touched, and another curious feature is
 that tn electric candles circling the
 church are undisturbed, the elecric
 bulbs shining as brightly as ever. But
 with these two eXceptions-the high
 altar far in the rear, and the circling
 candles everything is a ruin, frescoed
 ceiling, inlaid marble sidewalks, sculp- lures, confessionals, memorial tablets,
 baptistry and marble mosaic pavement all lying about in fragments.
 It was about eleven o'clock in the morning when the explosion occurred
 This was the busy hour, when the gon- dolas were crowding the Grand Canal and the Venetians were shopping and marketing. Suddenly single mono plane was seen in the northern sky, coming from the direction of the Aus trian frontier. It was flying very high about 2,500 meters. People at first did not recognize this speck as an ene- my bent on destruction. Soon, how ever, the steam syren at the Arsenal gave long wail-the signal of warn ing-and the people scattered to. eel lars and any available cover. fne aeroplane was now in full view, head ing straight for the big railway sta tion in Venice, the center of network of railway connections. Just above the station, the aeroplane@ began tc circle round and round. Clearly It was
 soing to bomb the station. But at 2,500 meters height the aim is not good, and besides there was mist add ing to the difficulties of a sure shot
 Down came the bomb-people could see it fall-but, instead of the station, it struck square on top of the famous old church. It did not explode imme- diately as it struck the roof Instead, | it made clean hole through the roof, | and then, shooting downwards, ex- ploded just above and in front of the pulpit.
 This internal explosion is what caus- ed the terrible destruction, as besides | the flying fragments of the bomb and | it's shrapnel contents, the sudden ex- pansion of air in the confined interi- | or of the church literally lifted the roof from the supporting walls ant blew it skyward
 One side of the roof was bent O,1. to the right, the other to the left, beams and arches crashing upward | and over, while masses of debris set tied down between the walls. The ceiling had disappeared in an instant. Particles of the bomb dug deep into the alabaster facing the walls, cracking. and wrenching the marble floor, made of huge slabs form ed in mosaics, was torn up in chunks One huge slab of the floor covered he tomb of some of the famous Vene- .ians of olden days, and this was then out exposing the tomb be- ow. The explosion occurred when the hurch was deserted so that no loss of fife resulted

Aid Only for Honest Men

According to statements issued by the association, and by attorneys for it, the association is seking patents only for the men and companies who were actually engaged in the work, or who had made a legitimate attempt to find oil on their lands prior to the order of President Taft on September 27, 1909, withdrawing the lands from public entry.
 Under the recent ruling of the United States supreme court the gov ernment can confiscate the property of every man and every company which did not have a patent on Sep tember 27, 1909. The oil association, in it's statements, contends that the men and the companies who, proceed ing under the then existing placer mining law, had drilled holes and were searching for oil on govern ment land were entitled to continue work with a view of securing a patent when the necessary amount of work had been done

 SACRAMENTO, Oct. 21.-The Oil Industry Association of California, a voluntary organization of oil pro- ducers, consumers, wage earners and business men of the oil fields, has sent representatives to Congress in he hope of securing some form of legislation which will prevent the wiping out of the oil industry which represents the expenditure of $300,- 100000.
 Every California congressman and senator has pledged support to the movement and it is likely that the subject will occupy much of the time of Congress at the present session. Should the government continue to ex- act the toll to which it is technically entitled under the recent ruling of the United States supreme court, it will cause the loss of hundreds of millions of dollars to men who acted in good faith under the law which always here tofore had been recognized by the gov ernment.

BEST TIME TO HAVE
THE cows FRESHEN
More Time for Caring for Animal
and Her Products in Winter
Than in Summer.

By C. A. HUTTON. University OF Ten
nessee)
There are several advantages in
having the cows freshen in the fall of
the year instead of in the Spring
There is more time on the farm for
caring for the cow and her products
during the winter months
Cows will give better yield of milk
than if they freshen in the spring. If
they are properly cared for and fed
they will milk well when fresh; then,
when the grass comes in the spring, it
helps to keep the milk flow, so that the
fall fresh COW will milk better through
out the year than the one that fresh
ems in the spring. The cows will be
dry during the hot summer months,
when pastures are short and flies are
bad More attention can be given to
caring for the calves, and they will be
ready to turn on pasture in the spring
when grass comes.
There is more demand for milk and
butter during the winter months, and
the price is higher than in the summer.
If cows are bred so as to freshen in
the fall, they will give better cash re-
turns from the sale of their products.

Potatoes and RuttermiIk.

An Irishwoman we'll expressed, the
other day, the value of the national
diet of potatoes and buttermilk- When
was young" she said. I'VE never
heard of consumption. The people
were content with potatoes and butter
milk. Now they must have meat and
tea. They are healthy enough as chill
dren, but few grow up strong. They
become consumptive as they grow.
They cannot afford good meat, or
enough of it, and they will not eat the
potatoes and milk that would cost
them little and keep them strong" Po-
tatoes are more nourishing II boiled
or baked in their skins. The Irish
know this; and, passing the open doors
of cottages today, one may still some
times see the brown, smoking balls
turned out of the big pot onto the
clothless table, round which the family
is sitting.
