The Pine Grove Farms

The Grove Farms owned by Oliver
Cabana, Jr., who was born and passed
his earl days in this place, and who
has many friends in the old town who
are greatly interested in his successful
business enterprises, will be pleHsed to
read the following from the Hostein-
Fresian Register:
The Pine Grove Farms sale of great
production females, and sons and daugh-
ters OF many worlds champion animals,
will in all probability be one OF the
very greatest, if not the greatest sale
OF purebred Holstein cattle eyer held.
Readers of The Register need little or
no introduction to the wonderful array
OF Holsteins which Mr.. Cabana has COL
lected together at his farms at Elma
Center, N. Y. No breeder has been
so generous in the use Of printers ink
to inform the public and the world at
large, as to what was happening at
Pine Grove Farms. And the public
have come to expect something out of
the ordinary from this quarter of
Hosteindom. TO say that the develop
ment OF this great herd has been wonder
full is putting it in a mild way-the
truth Of the matter is that it has been
nothing short of marvellous. To those
who have had the good fortune to visit
the farms and see the magnificent speci-
mems OF dairy cattle; see the excellent
facilities for the handling and developing
OF these great food providers, and hear
the men who are making this work their
life study expla in with enthusiasm the
details of the plans laid down to make
the Pine Grove Farms herd absolutely
the premier herd Of Holstein cattle in
the world; then, and then only, can the
supreme quality of the animals be
estimated. Worlds championship blood
filters through the veins of practically
every individual that Mr.. Cabana has
listed to sell on May %, 20 and 80. One
of the greatest opportunities that has
ever come to breeders of Holstein cattle
in the United States and Canada, will
be the one that presents itself on these
dates at Elma Center, N Y, the home
of worlds champions galore, The farms
are II miles from Buffalo and special
accommodations have been provided for
the transportation and comfort of every
one who wants to attend this sale of ex-
traordinary Holsteins. Catalogs will be
ready as soon as this issue of The Regis
ter reaches its subscribers and interested
parties should write to Pine Grove Farms,
Elma, N. Y, early, so as to m axe sure
Of copy.

Vt. BOYS ON MOLDAVIA
BOsley Brothers of North Troy
and Maurice Sweetland of AL
bany, Lose Their Lives When
Ship was TOrpedOed

Less than a quarter of an hour af-
ter the British armed merchant
troop ship Moldavia, with American
troops on board, had been torpedoed
on the southeast coast of Englan d
Thursday morning, virtually every
man had gone over the sides of the
vessel into life boats. Edwin and
Clyde Bosely of North Troy leaped
from the deck and were drowned.
Maurice Sweetland of Albany was
another Vermont boy to go down
with this ship. Had it not been for
the Bosley brothers jumping over
board the losses, which were given
officially as Sc American soldiers,
would have been confined to those
killed by the explosion of the tor
pedo.
The Bosley Brothers were on guard
when the ship was struck. There
was a sharp list, and they evil
dently believed she was turning over.
Search was made far them, but they
were not seen after they jumped
overheard.

Sprouts After 1000 Years.

At the Zensui Temple, Iwane village,
Koga-gun, Shiga Prefecture, very an
cient wooden idol Of Vaisravana was
opened four years ago and some rice
that had reposed therein fully ten CEN
turtles was removed and planted. The
seeds germinated and the rice grown
therefrom appears to be similar in all
respects to that Of the present day.
The yield was large and the crop for
next year from this seed Is expected
to be excellent.
Vaisravana is the God Of Treasure.
When the statue was repaired bag Of
coarse flaxen textile was exhumed con-
tanning rice seeds, with a piece of pa
per bearing the following inscription,
In Chinese: "This image has been en-
graved for the peace of the world. If
any one Of later generations opens 1t,
he should put in new Seeds" The
Tokyo Academy Of Fine Art pro-
nounces the image and its contents Of
great antiquity-at least 1000 years
old.

The R. R. Y. M. C. A. was de-
stroyed by fire Thursday morning
and a newsboy, Harry Payne, run
ming on the train to Portlaod, lost
his life in the flames.
Fire started in the kitchen, used
by the railroad employees in prepar-
ing meals, from an overheated oil
stove. 1t was first discovered by
night clerk, Edward Dickson, shortly
before o'clock. Mr.. DickSon saw
smoke issuing around the door and
on it's being opened the flames burst
out with such force as to throw Mr.
Dickson back into the reading room
which adjoins the main room with
large epen stairway to dormatorles,
and shortly spread over the entire
building filling the dormitorieS with
intense volumes of smoke.
There were about Is persons oc,
cupying the rooms and Mr.. Dickson
rushed through the smoke up stairs
to awaken the s!eepers. 1t was diff
cult to get them awakened and Mr..
Dickson made several attempts to
reach them but was finally driven
back by the intense heat and smoke.
The electric wires were burned off
and the building was in darkness
making the work Of rescue all the
more difficult. He worked persist
emily, the little time he had to reach
them but was alone and the flames
made such rapid headway it was i'm
possible to get at them all.
The was some delay in getting the
central telephone Office that calls
for the fire alarm and it was twenty
minutes or more before the fire
department had streams on the
building. The water system worked
fine and the fire laddies did valiant
service with four streams playing on
the building. The block of Joseph
Bros. caught fire but was soon put
out. and owing to the absence of
strong wind and the roofs being

Fred BOutin Has Exciting En-
counter With Black Bear.

Fred Boutin has charge of a gang
of choppers cutting pulp wood for
the Vermont Products Co. on the
Gore road to Lewis pond. He has
two crews and they have two camps
about a mile apart. Friday after
noon he was out in the woods alone
looking out a road. About half
past five while on his way to camp
and about three-fourths mile from
it, when passing beside log near
a stream he was startled by noise
in the bushes and on looking that
way saw black bear standing up
the other side of the log about
thirty feet from him. The bear look
ed at Mr.. Boutin for a moment and
then let out three fierce growls. Mr..
Boutin answered with three lusty
calls for help and bruin started to-
wards him.
Mr.. Boutin had only his axe for a
weapon and while the cold shivers
were playing tattoo all over him and
his hair began to rise he did some
sensible thinking in very short time
and planned to take refuge behind
birch tree nearby if bruin should
continue to advance. He kept per-
fectly still with an eye on the bear.

upon his peaceful domain, turned
and ambled away. Mr.. Boutin
waited until he thought bruin was
out of sight when he made a
lightning leap across the stream
and record run for camp.
