went over the scales carrying the
whole fill. The feature todty was a

from Broken Bow, Nebraska, which
made the $40 mile run in % hours,
and contained steers at $500 and $685.

from 1915 to $3.50, there being no
longer anything that can be called
cheap. Idaho pulp fed steers brought
$40 today, a record price, and Mon

Need of Lamoille County His
torical Society
MILFORD, Mass, Nov. 16, 1916.

MILFORD, Mass, Nov. 16. 1916.
Editor Ne,oS and Citizen -
The History of Stowe", which was
published in your last weeks issue. re-
minds me forcibly of the great need of a
Lamoille County Historical Society.
Every one of its. ten towns has hundreds
OF interesting Incidents in its earlier and
later history which ought to be pre-.
served for the benefit of coming genera
tons and made use of in the preparation
of a History of Lamoille County, or of
each of it's several towns. Besides this,
there are few more interesting and profit
able societies to which men and women
can belong-especially men and women
past middle life. Such a society was
formed in 1896 in the old town OF Men.
don, Mass, out of which Milford and
half a dozen other towns have been
formed, and it proved success from the
start. 1t has been one OF the societies
which has seemed to me most worthy OF
active support, and also one which Has
given me much pleasure through attend
ance at its quarterly meetings and par
ticipation in its work. l believe the sup
port of such societies is a civic duty as
well as social pleasure. My interest in
my native county has never tagged
and | have often wished that such a So
ciety might be formed. Some months
ago | wrote to a citizen of the county
who has more interesting items relating
to the local and personal history of his
vicinity stored up in his head than any
any other man of my knowledge, urging
him to take steps to promote the forma-
ton of such a society, but received
reply stating that age and infirmity
would necessarily prevent him from do
ing so. But are there not enough public
spirited men and women left in LamoiIle
County to undertake such a plan, and
carry it to a successful conclusion?
Yours for "Spunky Lamoille",

| year they are grown with it. One
| neighbor whose farm has been visited
by many agricultural authorities states
| that soys grown with corn on his
farm increase the productivity of the
corn about ten bushels to the acre.
We have never grown finer well ma
tured, solid ears of corn than that
grown with soy beans. Through an
| abnormally wet season last year the
corn planted in two fields with soys
was better than that of two other
fields of corn without. and while most
of this was cut for silage it would be
3sificult to draw comparison in yield,
but judging from the compact, well
maturing ears it was little superior
\ Farmers who have grown these two
crops separately have experienced some
IdifIiculty in harvesting them for silage,
|because it neceSSitateS two sets of Ia
borers and the use of extra tools, one
to cut the corn and the other to harvest
the soy beans. Growing the two to-
gether greatly facilitates the work of
| SLIDING, for at a single operation with
| the corn binder the two are bound to-
| gether in bundles that are easily han
| died. Not only that, but we have ex-
actly the same proportion of soy beans
and corn all through and thoroughly
mixed together by the silage cutter
| and it only requires one man at the
table of the cutter to feed.
One objection to sowing soy beans
with what is termed silage corn is that
the silage corn produces 50 much heavy
foliage, which shades the beans and
stunts their growth. Soy beans for
good development require a moderate
amount of direct sunlight. Corn like
Reds Yellow Dent does not bear so
much heavy foliage nor grow so tall as
to shut out sufficient light for the beans
to thrive and come to full maturity.
Even when one intends to shred fod
der and he has a binder with which to
cut the corn the feeding value of the
fodder can be greatly improved by
growing soy beans with the corn. 1t
also improves the stalk pasture if one
shucks the corn early and does not
mind the Inconvenience of the vines,
which is not much worse than the
weeds In some cornfelds. One man
living near by buys a carload of lambs
each year and turns them into a field
of soy beans and corn in August or
early September If the beans are near
ing maturity. They therefore harvest
their own feed, make rapid gains on
this rich feed and do little injury to
the corn. After the succulent leaves
have all been eaten there are left the
stems and some of the seed pods when
hogs are given access to the field for
hogging down the corn.

Protect Alfalfa Hay.

Alfalfa hay Should not be left unpro-
tected from rains, as is now the prac-
tice on many farms, according to Ralph
Kenny. assistant professor i'm agron-
omy in the Kansas State Agricultural
college.
well cured alfalfa hay is well worth
the extra expense involved I'm protec-
ton from exposure to rain and unfa-
vorable weather" says Mr.. Kenny.
Such hay will command a high price
on the market if sold and viii all be in
a salable condition. Likewise if fed on
the farm it will have more nutritive
value than if exposed to all kinds of
weather.
Cheap sheds for storing alfalfa may
be constructed from poles twenty feet
long set into the ground and supporting
a pitched roof Of corrugated steel or
some prepared roofing. The sides need
only be walled for the upper five to
seven feet. thus preventing dashing
rains from beating into the stored hay"

Babv THINGS,

In the craze for quilts baby's inter-
ests should not be neglected. as he will
perhaps have more use than his elders
for such a comfortable, even during
the warmer months. a most effective
modern version of the old time quilt is
made of blue chambray, with a white
band near the edge, which, crosses at
the corners. In the center of the quilt
are three saucy bedtime babies in
nighties. not forgetting the caps, and
each carries a lighted candle. White
chambray is used to depict this and is
appliqued to the blue background. Ex-
ira touches Of color are put in with en-
broidery outline. Below the figure runs
the legend, THE Sandman Is Coming"
A toy that the baby will probably
take to bed as well as play with in the
daytime is linen doll made by joining
two tinted and embroidered pieces of
material together to form the front and
back of the doll and inclosing beans,

THE WISE DONKEY.

There was once farmer who had @
donkeys, his master did not have a
great deal of respect for his wisdom.
One day the donkey showed him that
he knew a great deal more than he
was given credit for. At any rate, after
this occasion the farmer thought him
far wiser than a whole forest full of
owls, who have ever been regarded as
the wisest of feathered folk. But to
begin at the beginning:
The hero Of this tale-the donkey
was very hungry. His master, think
ing him only donkey, thought he did
not know the difference between eating
prickly thistles and something better
The donkey was very tired of thistles,
and his stomach felt like the "old
scratch" because of them. He gave a
loud bray and before he got to the end
of it-not farther than b-br, in fact
he saw the gate into the orchard was
Open The donkey had always longed
to go into this forbidden place, but the
gate had been kept securely locked
His master could not lock the smell
of the apples and pears from reaching
the donkey's nose, though, and this
smell made the donkey long more and
more after the good things which grew
there.
The donkey could scarcely believe his
eyes or nose either, but the second
II, H. l. hot l. to, I,o1
not deceived him. The gate was open;
consequently the donkey was invited
into the orchard. Once inside. he lost
no time in sampling the fruit of fine
apple tree. You know how fond your
pet pony is of nice juicy apple. Well,
you can imagine how donkey who
had been raised on thistles would re-
gard tree full of them. He ate and
ate until no pig would have recognized
him. Branch after branch came off the
tree in Mr.. Donkey's attempt to get the
delicious apples. All went well until
his master returned. When he saw
what the donkey had done, poor don
key got the worst whipping that he had
ever received in his life. The master
almost cried, for his tree was ruined,
and the apples Were the finest ones he
owned.
The year following, what was his
surprise to see that the tree he had
looked upon as ruined bore double as
many apples as any other tree in the
orchard. Besides this, the apples were
finer and larger than any he had ever
grown. He was ashamed of the way
he had treated the donkey for his part
in the scheme. He gathered large
basket of the apples and himself car
ried it to the poor donkey. Ever after
the orchard, and from so stupid an an
imal as a donkey the valuable process
of pruning trees was discovered.
