Big Limousine Crashes
Through b. & M. Gates

Investigation was being made
today of certain clues that might
lead to the discovery Of the owner
of the big limousine which crashed
through the gates at the Portland
street crossing of the Boston ana
Maine Railroad late Saturday
night. SO far as could be learned
little damage was done TO the au-
tomobile but one of the gates at
the east side of the crossing was
ripped off, necessitating new one
being put on.
Gate tender James Elliott was
on duty at the time the accident
occurred and it was only his alert
ness. in raising the other gate to
allow the machine to pass under
that saved that one from being
destroyed. When he saw that the
driver of the car could not or did
not intend to stop he raised the
other gate to prevent further da-
mage.
Later in the evening large
piece of the damaged gate was
found near the residence of Joseph
Walker on Railroad street and the
lantern hitched to the gate was To-
Gated in front of Bertrand's Hall.
The car started in the direction OF
Lyndonville. Some one who saw
the accident succeeded in reading
the numbers, "41414' but could
not distinguish the state winch
issued the license.

WHITE ANTS INIURE TlMBERS
in Contact With Camp Earth
and Eat Into Beams.

Winged white ants are often OBJ
served flying about houses I'M spring,
and are sometimes supposed to have
come in from outside. The bureau of
entomology of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture explains that
these winged insects really are Matched
inside the buildings, and usually are
to be taken as indicating nests of
winglesS white ants working destruc
ton in the timberS.
These insects, which really are not
properly ants, enter the wood wher-
yer it comes in contact with damp
earth, and often eat into the center of
an upright beam without manifesting
their presence on the outside until the
wood is entirely ruined, and possibly
a settling and cracking of the build
ing has resulted.
The department urges that build
ings be constructed with such founda-
tons that no wood touches the ground,
or if it is necessary to use wood, that
1t be impregnated with tar creosote.
Concrete floors should be laid on a
gravel base to prevent dampness and
cracking, and where cracks occur they
should be promptly filed.

UNIFORM PRODUCTS FAVORED
Find Better Market, Bring Higher
Prices and Are Handled at Less
Expense Than Others.

Without uniform standards for farm
produce there is no recognized basis
for the business of buying and selling,
says the bureau of markets, United
States Department of Agriculture.
Standardization of products gives
seller and purchaser a common Ian
guage and a set quality upon which
prices may ne compared and fixed. Elk
perience has shown that the products
which are sold by grade find a better
market, bring letter prices, and a be
handled at less expense than thosN sold
without reference to standards. Stand
ards have already been fixed for many
farm commodities, such as American
Upland cotton, shelled corn, wheat.
oats, and for small fruit containers.
These Federal standards apply only
when the product is intended for in
terstate or foreign ccylmerce. It is
highly important to secure state CO
operation so that the provisions that
apply TO a few products will apply to
all that are offered for sale.

plenty of light, pure air and sunshine,
and protect them from dampness and
storms of all kinds.
Chicks should never be crowded in
brood coOps, for crowding will cause
them to become overheated, resulting
in improper growth and sometimes in
dead chicks.
Sickness or disease usually starts
in unclean quarters, and in such
places lice and mites are always more
plentiful, the bulletin says. The coops
should be cleaned and sprayed once a
week, and clean shavings, chalf, or
sand put on the floor. Examine the
chicks and houses often for lice and
mites, and If found they should be
gotten rid of at once Farmers Bull
letin ITO gives directions for fighting
lice and mites.
Feed Right for Rapid Growth.
The three kinds of feeds most nee
essary for rapid growth are grain
feed, green feed and dry mash. A
grain mixture should be fed night and
morning, giving as large a quantity as
the chicks will a clean, but no more.
A good mixture for growing chicks
consists of three parts cracked corn,
two parts wheat and two parts hulled
oats. Kafir corn or rolled or hulled
barley may be substituted for hulled
oats. A supply of fresh green feed is
almost as necessary as grain for grow
ing chicks. They obtain plenty of it
If they have free range, but if kept in
confinement, lawn grass, beet tops,
cabbage, lettuce or other such green
feed should be supplied regularly.
Grit and oyster shells should be pro-
vlded so the chicks may help them
selves whenever they wish. When sour
milk can be obtained it should also
be kept before the chicks, as no feed
Is regarded better for them. When
this is given the amount of beef scrap
in the dry mash may be reduced cne-
half. Plenty Of fresh, clean water Is
absolutely necessary, and In hot
weather II should be provided twice
iaily in dishes that have been thor
oughly cleaned.
The bulletin emphasizes the impor-
lance Of free range and shade for
growing chicks. They are necessary
IL chicks are to grow rapidly and de
velop into vigorous fowls. When
growing chicks have free range they
obtain quantities OF green feed. bugs.
worms and other things. therefore
hey require less grain and are less
liable to sickness and disease.

prepared by the United States Depart

The enthusiasm with which many
poultry r~aisers, particularly begin
ners, start in the spring with young
chicks sometimes lags as the season
advances and the chicks get old
enough TO shift for themselves. If ARE
is neglected at this period, however,
success is improbable. The baby
chicks may be smart little fellows

n they may have BEEN brooded care
fully for the first two or three weeks,
but unless they receive proper care
