Who Is TO Blame?

Why not hold special court each
week to dispose OF land cases? This
sort of trouble would certainly al
most keep one court in continual SEES
sion. One thing is certain: either the
land agents are at fault, or the law
yers are trying to reap harvest, or
those purchasing the lands are blind
to many things contained in a deed.
Certainly the purchase Of a farm in
Orleans county at the present time
seems like purchasing a lawsuit with
it. Who is to blame ?-NeWport Ex-

WoOdchuck Meat.
Now is the time to harvest the
woodchuck crop that is fully ripe and
ready. Those who have tried this meat
say it is as tender and sweet as chick
en-. No pig is so clean or lives on MIC

der clover, as any farmer can testify.
He never eats weeds nor old dry gras-
ses, but the tenderest and finest in the
meadows. His meat ought to be good.

How Some Fires Originate.

Possibly some light is thrown upon
the mysterious origin offrequent fires
in our locality during the summer and
autumn months in farm barns in all
this section Of New England by Fire
Marshal B. B. Buckley of Ohio.
He has pointed out il q recent bull
letin the danger OF barn fires caused
by spontaneous combustion in sweat
ing hay, emphasizing the necessity of
keeping hay moWs we'll ventilated. He
also states that the heated hay at
tracts lightning and causes many
losses in this manner.
Heat created by the development of
the hay seeds and from the cells and
microscopic spores Of fungi which
continue to live for some time after
the hay is cut, may reach tempera-
ture of 265 degrees F. in an unventil-
ated NOW and then the mass blazes.
He says: "Those three causes acting
together may heat hay that is well
packed in q close NOW where there is
40 circulation of air to carry off the
heat, to a temperature OF PIP degrees
F., at which water boiis. Then the
hay begins to char; the charcoal SO
formed absorbs oxygen and the heat
mass grows still hotter. The heat
perhaps reaches 265 degrees F., and
then the mass biazes. Bran, grain
and silage also may ignite spontane-
ously if placed under similar condi-
lions. Many such barn fires are thus
reported: "Cause unknown; the whole
barn seemed ablaze at once."-Bel-
