about twenty- one years of age.He had been educated in Montreal and was thoroughly familiar with every branch of the furniture and manufacturing business in which his father is engaged here.The young man was very popular and well liked in this community, being amem- ber of the local brass brand, the A.OU.W., and other organizations.He Was pleasant, upright and ambitious.He will be sadly missed by

States many cooly immigrants from Japan.Heretofore the Pacific states have about evenly divided with British Columbia the enormous burden of Japanese Iminigration to the Pacilic const: hereafter the Pacific states will get British Columbia's half as well as thelr own.This is the opin- fon of Colonel Itead, acting Unlted States immigration commissioner at vancouver, B.C.The evil of the naturalization act of Columbia, according to Colonel Read, is that \\nstead of Canada's share of the undersirable cooly Japanese immigrants being deported back to Japan the entire season's m- migration to British Columbia will be dumped into the United States.A Unique Departure, An educational department in Wig- eonsin next summer will be the open- Ing of n summer school for apprentices

HOW TC OBTAIN THE BEST RESULTS | _ IN 1TS PRODUCTION.| Cleanliness Is the Keynote of the Shpation \u2014 Care of Utensils \u2014 Handling the Milr-Cows and What to Feed Them.The keynote of the situation Es clean | milk, says PP.IL.Stadmuller in Ameri- où Agviculturist To accomplish this the wilkers must have clean clothes and Lands, For clothing, suitable suits: devoted exclusively to milking are required.Ordinary white cotton jumpers nnd overalls are well adapted for this.They must be wa-bed and steril- ized daily.The milkers must thor oughly wa-b their hands with hot water and soap, using brush, and cleanse the finger nails.The milk utensils, pails, cans, bottles, strainers, ete.should be sterilized, which js best accomplished by moist heat (steam) rather than dry heat.For sterilizing | bottles a wooden chest is the best.For convenience in handling tbe bottles are placed In trays which slide Into the Chest.Avoid the use of galvanized tran In thig work, as steam attacks ani destroys the galvanizing.The trays should be made of wool, secured with wooden dowels instecad of nails or screws, as metal takes the heat before the wood, causing expansion of the metal and spreading of the wood so that trays secon fail apart The dust in the atmosphere of the stables should be maintained at a minimum, particularly during milking.This ts acvomplisled by Moistening à 1 dry foods, the repented removal of sneh | dust as accanpulates and frequent white washin: Experience has in, dieated the absolute necessity of using covered py th pails, Mk protuced under these conditions: will, nevertheless, be som.what in} fected hy aniero organisms, as despite, all these precantiens it wi] have heen exposed T9 nn indefinite and varying amount of infection, To prevent they mitiptieation of such bacteria ns shal | have gnined avcess to the milk it be comes indispensabre to immsedinte!s | cocl the milk to about 40 degrees, The milk must he eeoled in à room as dust- proof ns possible.This precludes the feasibility of cooling the milk in the stable.If a room in the stable Is constructed for this purpose.the entrauce to it should be double vestibuled, When milk is produced under such conditions, butter making resolves it self into a mere rule of thumb.Cream derived from such milk has only to stand long enough to develop the required degree of acidity and then churned, werked, ete.The initial prod wet.the milk, being uniform, the butter making becomes a Mere me chanical process.This fact has demonstrated itself in our practice with guch emphasis as to raise the question why dairy instructors do uot devote more effort to emphasize care in production rather thao to dwell so much upon methods of correcting evils which have their origin in indifferent and careless Landling of the milk.In addition to wholesomencss or cleanliness there is a growing demand for richer milk.This is wost cconom- ically met by selecting cows pos sessing the individuality to produce rich milk.For this purpose we rely upon Jerseys.Having the proper cows, the only remaining factor worthy of note is the feeding.This problem is ultimately associated with local conditions.For winter feeding we usual-| ly use a graiu ration composed by] weight as follows: Cornmeal one part, | bran three parts.old process linseed meal 11.parts.A cow if wilking receives from 2 to 14 pounds per day, ae cording to period of lactation and individual capacity.\\Vhenever a greater deviation in the grain ration is desired for any particular purpose it is obtained by adding either corn or linseed meals.HOUSE THE COWS.i i i ! | Comfortable Stables Reduce the Cost of Feeding.Food is fuel.The animal must use | food enough to warm up the body to, life temperature, says L.W.Lighty in; The National Stockman.Jf the cow must be out in the cold and storm, she uses very much food to keep Up the\u2018 temperature, and to digest this food requires considerable energy, which energy must also be supplied by the feod.and thus it comes about that if the cow ig compelled to rough it she is kept busy keeping warm and can give very, little attention to making milk.| Arrange your stable or cowhouse so that the temperature never gets to freezing and keep tbe cow in at least! 93 hours out of the 24 and if the : weather is real bad keep her in the other Lour, too, and it will save You lots of feed and give the cow a chance to make you a profit out of the feed con- | sumed.When hay and cornmeal sell | at three-fourths to seven-cightLs cents.per pound, it is an expensive experiment to try to warm un the universe: by burning these in the cow\u2019s body while the cow is bumped up in the field or barnyard.\u2014 Scourns In Calves.Young calves should be fed whole; milk for two weeks.then gradually | substitute skimmilk until, at a month | or 6 weeks old, they get all skimmilk.Add to the skimmilk a little flaxseed | jelly orwold process linseed meal.The milk should always be fed at the tenr- perature of new milk.Scald the pails each day.Keep the calf warm and: dry.using plenty of bedding.The ad- | ditien of à little wheat flour to the, milk is useful to stop scouring.| Superfinons Fat.The amount of fat In the interior of cheese Is not decreased during ripen- lng.The superfluous fat ig usually de-: s«omposed and the fatty aclds set free.| THE FARM SEPARATOR.|THE FRENCH SOLDIER its Advantage CUnqnestioned When Gutter Is Made at llome, At every dairy convention the farm separatar is one of the topics exciting great Interert, says EE, C, Bennett in American Agriculturist.This is from the creamery men's standpoint, aud the dividing line Is strictly whether the butter from cream hauled to the face tory is of as fine a flavor as that where the whole milk is taken to the factory and the separating and all the other work done by the factory expert.Ou this question there is a division of thouskt, Lut where the milk is made into butter at home there Is but one side to the question.The farm sep rator stands nnquestioned.But in some luvatities the separator is not well enough known to enable the farmers to judge whether it will pay them to invest.There come UD the questions of how many cows will warrant the in- vestiment, how much time ix required to operate it, what degree of skill is necessary tn make it a success amd finally whether for the as ze farmer it is not wise to do the hest he can in the old way.dust as \u20ac ercam rais the docp settiug Coulex cñn as from separator cream, hut it is not so easy to do it at ail times, for the weather has greater chance to harm the cream by these old ways than when a separator ts used, 1 is burdensome to churn every day on the farm, and twice h wreek is the rule.Thin eremn\u2014that Is, cream contain ing a grear deal of mi will sour quicker and go off in flavor svoner than that which has more batter fat aml less milk and casein in it.Always there is a lintle impurity in talk, espe cinilv winter milk, and the more [HEHN (here is in the cream the more impurity there ts This causes an undesivalile fermentation, Dut if the cream is thick it can be held little changed for three or four « , then thinned with wasm sweet milk or with sour skim: from the provions day's separa: The whole cun be set to ripen, and the fermentation wiil be dominat 4 and give oly flavored butter.1 da this « nil tbe year around and get the highest ery quatatious or hight and this is er 4 cents above the highest quotations for dairy butter.Not only ean you make Lutter, as a rule, and make it ensier, but you make more of it from the same mili.This is because he separator gets out the buter fr more completely than can He done Ly setting the milk for the vream to rise.Another advantage 1s in the inerestl value of the skimmilk.The scparator cap be started nearly as soon as you commence milking.and by the time this is finished the separating will be practically completed and the warm.fresh, sweet milk fed to the calves and the pigs.This wilk is better for stock than stale skimmilk.It is what the scientist calls nascent force\u2014the older milk gets the less of life it has, the nearer it Is to decomposition and the Jess Js its value to the calf.You cab cot the separator to skim as thin or as thick as you wish, and when you sell cream or usc it in the family {his is an advaniage.Now, as to the number of cows which warrants the purchase, a safe estimate is that you get as much from five cows hy using the separator as from six d'butter can be mile from without it\u2014that is, it ndds one cow to] each five of the herd and dees not cat anything.1 think the farmer with five or mure cows should Luy ene, and then with the profits he can increase his herd and still more increase his profits.Qucen Alexandra's Dalry.The dairy of Queen Alexandra.formerly Princess of Wales, at sandring- ham park, is the most exquisitely dain: ty and charming place in the world.

Town Clerk, W.§.Robbing; Selectmen, T.Fairchild, L.N.Collier, J.E.Martin; Treasurer, L.P.Jenne; Overseer Poor, Nixon Morse; Constable, J.8.Styles; Listers, S.B.Bates, Chas.D.Ward, N.M.Colby; Audiors, W.M.Taylor, S.BE.Hitchcock, H.H, Wilder; Trustee of Public Money, L.P.Jenne; School Directors, Chas.D.Ward, Chas.Williams, T.A.Adams; Road Commissioner, A.J.Morrill; Town Agent, W.S.Robbins.The site for the new school building to be eree- ted at Derby Line was the Principal issue of the contest.Not one person out of the handful residing in Derby Line who were opposed to a rational site has any Personal interest in school matters anyway and the numbers that carried the elections have no interests whatever in Derby Line.Is this government by the people?We venture to say that those high and mighty in authority and influence (2?) who succeded in wheedling the rural electors with the bug-bear litigation fake will ultimately have cause for | regret.As a matter matter of litigation was practically ended and a creditable school building would have been erected upon a proper site within a year and without the cxpenditure of a dollar by the Town.When the people who were got out to vote, to the tune of \u201cyou'll lose your happy home if you don\u2019t,\u201d realize how they were hoodwinked by the \u2018speculators\u2019 their feelings will reflect no credit upon the of fact the i Derby Line quartette, nor the upper ten either, whether they \u2018hang to geth- er\u2019 or not, WAY'S MILLS, Mrs.Sam Sage is very low at this writing.Mr.and Mrs.Fred Brown spent a few days with friends in Fitch Bay recently.Mr.C.A.Hastings of West Derby, Vt., is stopping at Wm.Holmes\u2019s for the present.Mrs.Andrew Smith has a severe attack of erysipelas.She is attended by Dr.Jones.Del Carr of Fitch Bay was in town on Saturday.Mr.G.R.Drew returned to Magog on Saturday last after spending the past few weeks here.Mr.A.E.Chadsey, Elwin Chadsey, Win Gedder and George Eastern represented the Lodge at the Distriet Lodge in Magog last Saturday.Birthday parties have been the order here during the past few weeks, One was given to Miss Lillie Currier last Friday night and one to Miss Myrtle Chadsey the week before.A good time was enjoyed at both places by those present.Mrs.Homer Davis of Ontario is stopping with her mother, Mrs.S.Sage at present.nn FAIRFAX.Intended for last week.Albert Chadsey has been quite sick but under the skillful care of Dr.Brown has recovered, H.L.Paul of Boston, Mass, is spending a short time with his parents here, We understand the school hag closed again.This is the third time since the fall term began.This time it has closed for a scare of scarlet fever, still there are no cases.Mr.and Mrs.Arthur Bryant have lensed Peter Simpson\u2019s farm and taken possession, Mr.and Mrs.George Hartson .of Magog spent Sunday with their pâr- ents, Mr.and Mrs.Charles Hartson, We noticed a tandem team.pass thrcugh here on Monday.Mr.and Mrs.E.L.Paul and little daughter of Fitch Bay are spending a few days at D.M.Paul's.F.W.Pope was at East Hatley on Sunday and Monday.Peter Simpson is moving on to the Roger's farm.We wish him good luck.Mr.Mansur cut his foot while chopping one day last week.Mrs.Eugene Merrill of Cassville recently visited her daughter, Mrs: Harry Wheeler, GRANITEVILLE, | One of the pleasantest socials of the season took place on Thursday evening at the commodious residence of Mr.Russell Rediker's, there being upwards of sixty present.Supper Was served in the early part of the evening.The remainder was spent in social conversation.Several musical selections were given ind enjoyed by all.Much credit is due Mr.and Mrs.Rediker for their untiring efforts in making it a suceess.Proceeds, , satisfactory.I Mr.T.F.Taylor left here on Monday for New York where he is employ- \u2018ed by Mr, A.C.Zabriskie.We wish him success.| Mr.and Mrs.E.B.Tryon went to \u2018Magog last week to Visit his mother and brothers, returning home on Sat- surday.- ;

MEXICAN Horoiue Sonora Warned People Of GIRL\u2019S WILD ! RIDE Flood © To become a heroine and gain wealth by one bold stroke of daring Is the, good fortune that has come to Eduarda Silva, a young Mexican girl of the state; of Sonora.When the Monteztuma dam\u2019 burst on the Rio de Sonora, she mount- ; ed her horse and raced down the valley | before the rushing flood warning the people of the impending disaster, and | as a reward she has been presented | with a rich share of the Banco mine.It is difficult to say just Low many lives Eduarda Silva saved, Dut she | warned over 200 people, counting those | domiciled at the various ranches, mines! and peon camps.Jim Taylor, superintendent of the Banco mine, declares that fully half of this number would have been drowned or seriously injured bad it not been for the thmely warning she gave them.On the morning of the day on which the dam burst Eduarda rode up the south fork of the Rio de Sonora looking for stray cattle from her father\u2019s ranch.She went along the side of the dam and at the bulkhead found big Tom Johnson in charge of four of his diteh repairers, all of them bustling and sweating to stop what looked like an ordinary little leak in the towering wall of earth, bowlders, interlaced logs and sheathing planks.For 20 minutes the hot work was rushed, punctuated with exclamations, the sound of spashing earth and wator and sharp, quick orders.Then the boss | climbed up to take a glance at the surface of the surcharged dam.When le came down, he walked directly to Eduarda.\u201cSay, little girl, he said, \u2018we're up against it hard and no mistake.We can hold her for half an hour at the outside.Ride like fury and warn the | | FULL SPEED DOWN THE GORGE.folks below to rush for the hills.You've got the right stuff in you.Now, skip!\u201d And he pulled out his big silver watch and glanced at the time.\u201cHalf an hour,\u201d he muttered, \u201cand then the water'll knock us out.\u201d Eduarda turned ber horse and started down the gorge that later widened into the little Miramar valley, dotted with several ranches.Romero Hernandez was on his veranda mending a saddle when Eduarda dashed up.\u201cRun for the bills,\u201d she cried; \u201cthe dam is bursting, and the flood will be here inside half an hour!\u201d Edunrda dashed on in her herole endeavor.There was method in the way she zigzagged across the little valley and took short cuts between huts, houses and camps, For as she galloped along at a breakneck pace she figured out which of those she warned could warn others in turn in their flight to higher ground.At the ranch of Miguel Ferrara she secured a fresh horse and continued her wild ride down the flinty roadbed of the gorge to the collection of frame houses, shacks and rude cabins that marked the shaft leading to the Banco mine, Jim Taylor was in the superintendent\u2019s office.As Eduarda dashed up Taylor grunted as she cried her warning, but became a man of action in a moment.He called to halt a dozen Men, and tbe next instant the entire camp seemed to know all about the danger, and men Were rushing about, but rushing in a way that showed they Were preparing to meet the flood.The ore ears were whistled up, the ore sent flying helter skelter, and the Sick from the bospital were hurriedly bundled Into the cars and sent up the grade.Eduarda was crossing the Arroyo Seco on her way to the Sepulvedas when she first heard the roar In the air that told her the turbulent waters in the biz Montezuma dam had at last triumphed over plucky Tom Johnson and hig gang of ditch walkers.But her work was almost over by that time.She was now out in the open country, and only two families living near the bed of the Sonora were fn fmmediate danger, These she reached in a straight gallop over a good road.And this is the way Eduarda Silva cheated the greedy waters of the Montezuma dam apd won for herself a share In tbe rich Banco mine DOG SAVED THE TRAIN, \u2014\u2014 Displayed Intelligence Almost Haman ât a Critical Moment, The Intelligence displayed by n dog In Colorado recently almost passes Lu- Ca THE ACT OF A HERD, He Sratebrd n Life Cat cf a Pool of Molten Metnt, Ture wen came up carrying a loug Iron shaft, which had been eut in two, man belief, but there are plenty of © that un iron ring could Le Inserted persous to vouch for the story and to! attest that he Is the most wonderful | dog in the world.Nig lives at Fork Creek, Colo., a lone- betv.con the two Batves.An empty estieiblg a foot wide and deep hung in the ring, The forward end of the pole {held a crosstar, making it, as it were, alge T.Two men held the T rert of ly little station on the Colorado and! the pole; the third grasped the rear Southern railway.His master is C, N.!

No small part of the success In rais-\" ing Inmbs depends upon the care given the cwes during the winter.It is much easier to grow and fation a thrifty lamb that is of good size and vigorous when dropped than one that has been stunted before birth and thus has to overcome the weakness if not disenso that 1t may inherit from a parent that fs weakened vither by scanty feading or hy overfeeding and getting too fat.Give the ewe enough to eat, hut let $2] be of such a character as to build tip bier frame and that of the youny she is carrying and nol to fatten her, says au experienced sheep raiser.For this purpose we always wanted clover hay or the best early cut fine hay we had and a supply of roots, for which pur- Pose we found none that we could nro- duce casier or chicaper than the flat mr Bip, and we knew of none that served our purpose better.We also gave tbe\u2018 ewes a chance to take a run in the ticld every day when it was not raining or snowing too hard.Thus they were firm of fesh, muscular and neither fat nor lean, and they would supply milk for the lambs even when they hud twins! The lambs were dropped strong, and they gained rapidly.The ewes had a little grain every day in winter, either bran or onts, and If we chose to given, little corn fodder, eut up instend of the | hay, or if we thought our hay was not quite as good as usual, a little corn went With the oats or cornmual with: the bran, say about one-third part.We!
