The Disaster of Belgium.

Papers the other day chron-
icled the fact that the Commits
sion for Relief in Belgium has
sent there 1885, 66 tons of food
at a cost Of $7O,0OO,OO This
huge mountain of food made for
the people of King Albert's do
means a daily ration OF
only 10 ounces for each person.
A soldiers ration is supposed to
represent the best and most con-
centrated food supply, but a sol
der gets three times the amount
parceled the Belgians.
Could anything disclose more
quickly the magnitude Of the
disaster which has befallen Bel
GUM and the extent of the re-
lief work which more fortunate
ones are carrying forward and
without which Belgium must
perish?
1t is flashes Of intelligence like
this that do more to convey an
adequate idea of the war than
the screaming headlines of the
screaming shells. This and the
fact that in some of the belliger-
ent countries government orders
forbid widows and others from
wearing mourning except one
day a week, so black would be
the daily cloud of grief, help tell
the story.
1t is probable that only long
after the peace pact is signed,
when the minds of men are re-
stored to normal, will the world
be able to get an adequate con-
ception of what has taken place
in Europe within a year.
Then, too, will the world learn
of the tremendous relief work
done. In many ways the results
of this same Commission fol
Relief in Belgium are nigh in.
credible. The fact that thus fan
its work has been done without
a breath of scandal and with {
high percentage of efficiency
ought to encourage further con
tributions to it's fund, for it i.
evident that with all the fooC
distribution the Belgians mus.
have more than 10 ounces o.
food a day.-AlIentown, Pa.

Hogs Make Cheap Corn Har
Vesters.

1t will pay to hog down corn.
This has been shown by the Mis-
souri, Agricultural Experiment
Station and has been done pro-
ftably by a large number of
feeders.
The main advantage are: (1)
the hogs make rapid and more
economical grains; ~ it saves
the labor of harvesting; ~ the
manure is returned to the land
without loss and without labor [;
az the place of feeding is more
sanitary than the ordinary feed
lot; (5) the grain is harvested
without waste.
Eleven trials with hogging
down corn at the Missouri Agri-
cultural Experiment Station
have shown that there is no bet
ter way of finishing hogs than
by allowing them to do their
own harvesting. To be profit
able, however, the practice must
be rightly managed. The hogs
should be given access at one
time, to what they will clean it
up well as they go. A cheap eff
ficient temporary fence is made
with woven wire.
Get the hogs on a full feed of
new corn before turning them in
to the field by cutting a few
stalks at first and increasing
gradually. The corn is in good
condition to turn into when the
dent has just formed in the kerr
mel.
For best results the hogs doing
their own harvesting should re-
ceive some feed in addition to
the corn. This supplement may
be supplied with crops like rape,
soybeans, ETC., which should
have been grown in the corn field
that is to be harvested. If no
such crops have been planted a
small amount of some feed like
tankage should be fed. Good re-
suits can be secured by supply
ing tankage in a self-feeder. If
Y ID. Of tankage a day for each
100 lbs. of live weight gives good
results.

LAUNCH ON FIRE IN HARBOR
Handsome Power Graft Belonging Julian L. Williams
 Caught Fire From Unknown Cause-Boa Considered : Total. Eoss-0wner Had Been at Work on It During
 Afternoon-Had Left it But Short Time Before Boys Saw Smoke. sstsft ss..es I--t 5e, sse

The Roamer, the large, handsome power boat owned by Julian, l.. WIZ Hams, commodore of the Chelsea Boat
 club, was totally destroyed by fire which broke out about 6 o'clock. Fri
 day evening as the boat lay anchored in the Thames some distance of Gen.
 tral wharf. The origin of the lire is unknown. .s
 Mir. Williams had been working on the boat Friday afternoon. and left 1t shortly before 6 o'clock. He had. hard- ly come ashore when smoke was seen pouring from the forward. part of the boat and in few minutes, the wood work was burning briskly. Two boys who were out in a boat near. the spot where The Roamer was anchored. saw the smoke and hurrying ashore they secured hand extinguiShers, but were unable to get aboard when they re- turned owing to the dense smoke. 2.
 A telephone call was sent into the fire department and they made a quick response. Captain Edward s. Stinson of the auto chemical company secured a couple Of rowboets and some of the firenlen rowed out from the end of Central wharf to the Roaner and tow ed the burning boat inshore. Two streams of chemical were used to ex- tinguish the flames. Previously the fremen used Q small can of chemical but this made little impression on the

fire. The upper part of. the boat was burned on and the bow end was, bad ly damaged. Tho hull was tied tip near Dassley's wharf for the night. ME.s Williams is at a. loss as to what started the fire as everything seemed all right when he left the boat. The loss Fis covered by insurance. The Roamer' was the largest power boat in the Coeisea Boat club fleet and was .elaborately fitted, the interior being finished in mahogany. The large quan- tfty of. gasolene. about T5 gallons, in the tank made the fire a dangerous one, as 1t was expected that the tank would explode. It is understoodt hat a boat of the size of The Roaner and finashed as she was would cost over s1, 900.
 |y Chemical is about the only thing that can be used effectively on gaso- lene fires. but water may be used to good advantage provided it is sprayed down over the fire so as to prevent
 air from reaching the base of the flames. In this way the flames arc smothered. @-.f e Friday evenings call made the 18th
 for the month so far. The largest
 single fire loss this month was at the
 residence, of c. D. White, No. PAS
 Broadway, where the attic and part os
 the floor beneath were quite extensive ] ly damaged.
