The directness of the appeal In literary expression Involves a complexity of revolt against old forms. The writer is more variously tempted than tbs speaker into indirections. The latter would never call the sun "the orb of day" or by the classic name of "Phoebus." Yet there was a period In English literature which lasted for a long time and Is not even nowwwholly beyond the reach of our recollection when It seemed a breach of dignity for a writer to call anything by its right name. The concrete thing must be relieved of its vulgarity by the mask of a phrase. The horse was "the fleet courser," and all fruits were Indiscriminately "Pomona's treasures." Quail ties abstract enough in their common names were redeemed from the vice of particularity by personification.

The processes of abstraction and generalization in the so called classic age of English literature uprooted all things and set them floating In the air; the mind was not simply a mirror reflecting things, but made composite photographs of the images themselves. Na tare was seen as a bundle of these composites. H. M. Alden In Harper's Magazine.

Fat Men's Club Banquet. The editor of the Caledonian has received the following official communication from David Wilkie, the well-known travelling man, president of the New England Fat Men's Club, announcing their first annual banquet at that popular hostelry, Hale's Tavern; Will you kindly insert in your paper a few lines giviog the New England Fat Men's Club a little notoriety? Yr.n know, a small match can start a big fire if there are shavings enough. We think we have the shavings. Matters of considerable importance sometimes turn on a small pivot. There were present November 29, 1903, at Hale's Tavern, Wells Rivtr ten men whose aggregate weight was 2,182 pounds, averaging 218 15 pounds.

As this is an age of organizations, clubs, and societies; we thought it might be well to start a "Fat Men's Club" founded upon friendship, brotherly love, and good fellowship. We now have 110 nanus enrolled. Conditions, 200 pounds or over. We have to 'draw the line somewhere. We have very kind feelings for our light weight brothers and as fast as they tat up to the requisite weight-will take them in.

It has been thought that fat men are and slow; now we propose to ascertain how much fun, fire, aud animation there is in them to the square inch, and so propose to call the brothers together for a banquet at Hale's Tavern, Wells River. Saturday, October 8th. AH who are fatnilar with Mr. Hale's mthods know it will be an up-to a'e affair. We are a ret of fellows appreciate the influence and mighty wr of the press so will hope to have a editors with us though under Miss Josephine Martineau, daughter of William Martineau of Littleton, died at jthe St.

Word was received here yesterday of the death of E. D. Harlow at the hospital in the Soldiers' Home at Bennington on Sept. 18. Mr.

Harlow was born in Irasburg, Sept. 20, 1826, and enlisted in the 11th Ohio regiment during the civil war. He was a member of Cbamberlin Post, No. 1, G. A.

R. While a resident of St. Johnsbury he united with the North church when only 17 years of age. Eight years ago he took a letter to the Second Congregational church in Bennington. Mr.

Johnsbury cemetery on Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Yesterday morning, after a brief illness, Mrs. Josephine White Higgins passed away at her home in the family of Mr. and Mrs. James Ritchie.

She came to St. Johnsbury from Middlesex after her marriage to the late Samuel Higgins, 40' years ago. Her native dignity of bearing could not long conceal a most gracious and lovable nature. As time went on her quiet sympathy and sincerity came to be more deeply felt, and her warmth of heart found many ways of expression and of practical usefulness. Theie was unfailing generosity and consideration in all her estimates of people.

She had a quick appreciation of what was good in every one and always put emphasis on that side of character and life. Intelligent and devout as a Christian in the communion of St. Andrew's church, she was also broad in her religious sympathies and in her interest of the public welfare. While never prominent in society she contributed much to refined ideals of home and social life and to the making of an atmosphere of To her last hour she was caring more for some other one than lor herself. Mingled with a deep sense of loss there is gratitude for every remembrance of her gentle presence now her ripe and gracious spirit has passed from us.

The funeral service will be held at the home on Park street at half past three o'clock Thursday afternoon. Alitchell. William Mitchell died at his home, 43 Caledonia street, last week Tuesday of heart disease. He was born in Newton, Oct. 28, 1828.

Conelnalona From Field Teats In Ohio Covering; Twelve Tears, Tbe results of field tests covering twelve years' work upon the farm of the Ohio agricultural experiment station at Wooster show the twelve heaviest yielding varieties to be, in the order named, Mealy, Gypsy, Improved Poole, Poole, Early Ripe, Nigger, Valley, Mediterranean, Perfection, Bed Wonder, Nixon and New The average weight per measured bushel is a fair index of the plumpness and grade of wheat. The varieties" standing highest in this regard are, in order, Red Wonder, Nixon, Improved Fulcaster, Fulcaster, Hickman, Gypsy, Diamond Grit, Mediterranean, Nigger, Deitz, Bearded Monarch and Fultz, all red grained wheats. The twelve testing lowest, beginning with the lowest, are Rural New Yorker No. 6, Forty Fold, Jones' Square Head, Early Arcadian, New Soules, Gold Coin, New Columbia, International No.

6, Stanley, Giant Square Head, Smith's Bust Proof and Mealy. Ranking the above varieties as regards both yield and quality as shown by weight per bushel, giving sixty points to yield and forty, points to weight, the ten standing highest, in the order of their merit, are Gypsy, Red Wonder, Early Ripe, Improved Poole, Nigger, Nixon, Poole, Valley, Mediterranean and Mealy. Thick and Thin Seeding-. Eighteen different tests with five different varieties of wheat the Valley, Rudy, Poole, Fultz and Mealy-extending over ten years' work, show a gradual increase from 14.35 bushels, grown from three of seed, to an average of 21.88 bushels, from nine pecks of seed. In eight of the eighteen tests ten pecks gave a larger yield than a less amount of seed, and in only one test of the eighteen did six pecks give the largest yield.

Early and Late Seeding. Seedings of wheat have been made at Intervals of seven days from Sept. 1 to Oct. 27. The largest yields on th average have come from seedings made Sept.

22 and the next largest yields from Sept. 15. Two seasons when the Hessian fly practically ruined wheal in Ohio, 1900 and 1901, Sept. 27 and Oct 5 gave the best yields. Old Versus New Seed.

Germination tests of wheat one six years old show that wheat one year old will germinate as well as new wheat and that even two-year-old wheat, if of good quality, would bettei be used than inferior seed whose only virtue is that it' is new. This Season's Late Harveat. The extremely late harvest this yeai has been favorable to rust, and wheal is of low grade as well as of light yield. Large yields and high tweigh1 per measured bushel have usually been -associated. The Boom In Wheat.

Wheat has advanced over 30 cents a bushel since upward movemenl began last June. Disappointment Id the winter crop and later threatened and actual disaster to the spring crop have been the main levers that havt lifted prices above $1.10 per bushel "As to the spring crop, not enough is definitely known at this writing to allow an estimate that will be worth anything. Many reports indicate thai there will be no wheat over a large section of the northwest. Authorities estimate the shortage at 20 to 25 pei cent. Certain it is that the people oi the northwest have been buying wheal for speculation very liberally, evidently believing that it will be good prop erty by the time another harvest is here.

Even if the conservative estimates of the damage are correct this country will have little wheat to export. And it will probably need little The foreign buyer is a long looker al the price, and with wheat at $1.10 Id Chicago he will buy no more than he has to have. The price will cut a big figure this year in the sufficiency oi lack of supplies, as it will restrict exports and probably home consumption too. National Stockman. Autumn In the Orchard.

Plenty to Eat and a. Wide Slice. It is claimed that no other kind of live stock will return so large a profit to the successful grower as will poultry, and no kind of poultry is more profitable than turkeys when properly handled. Turkeys that are hatched early in the spring should grow to weigh from fourteen to twenty pounds by Thanksgiving week. These weights are often exceeded by the best growers, but they are the most popular and most easily produced.

As soon as the weather begins to turn cold and insect food becomes scarce an Increased grain diet must be provided for the growing turkeys. A ration of wheat and corn is best. Do not feed them too much at first, but gradually increase the supply until they are having all they will eat. Those who succeed best In having the turkeys ready and in fine condition for the early market are those who allow them their freedom and feed them all they will eat of wholesome, fattening grain. Even when finishing them it is not well to confine them.

If they are fed each day at regular hours and at the same place it will be an easy matter to have them come three times a day to this place to be fed. Their longing for food being fully supplied, less violent exercise will 'be taken, and the energy that would be expended in their wanderings in search of food will be directed in the more profitable channel of growing and developing for market. Turkeys that are poorly fed during the fall expend in seeking food that is no longer attainable considerable of the flesh they may have gained. When feeding turkeys for market it must be 'remembered that they will sell for considerably more per pound than can be obtained for hogs or cattle, while the actual food cost per pound of turkey meat is but little if any more than for hogs or cattle. It will alwayi pay well to give to growing turkeys all the grain they can eat.

Keep them growing from start to finish and have them ready for the Thanksgiving market, when prices are usually the best. This may be accomplished quite easily with all the early broods, provided they are properly and liberally fed as' the fall weather begins to remove their natural food supply of worms, bugs, seeds and herbs of all kinds. -In feeding for market the end most desired is complete growth and the greatest possible weight by Thanksgiving time." The records of years show the highest value for market turkeys to have been reached during the last week of November. While the demand is not quite so brisk at Christmas time the prices are almost as high. Handy "When Hukiag Corn.

I have observed a good many of my neighbors husking corn out of the shock who have very little Idea of con venience in doing the work, writes an Iowa Homestead correspondent. To make tlje work easy and to avoid backache DEVICE FOB CORN husking. I have made a device that will be convenient in husking corn out of the shock. The illustration is self, explanatory and should be made large enough to hold a whole shock of corn at a time. The operator sits on the seat with the corn in front of him, and as husking proceeds he can remove the stover and tie It into bundles out of his way.

This is the best device I have seen. In Bnytnar Feed. In buying feeds to supplement his home grown supply the dairyman's aim should be to secure digestible and palatable protein on the most economical terms. The quality of the manure made depends to a great extent on the kinds of feed used, and a Judicious selection will result in a great improvement in this direction. The cheapness of the buckwheat products for the purchaser of protein is pointed put by the New Jersey experiment station in a review of its examination of many concentrated feeding stuffs sold in the state.

These feeds were also found to contain large quantities of" carbohydrate and fat. Of the wheat products wheat feed was slightly the cheapest, and middlings were more expensive than bran. Oat middlings were a little cheaper than wheat bran, while among the whole grain products, all of wbjcb were expensive sources of protein, ground oats were the cheapest and ground wheat the most expensive. mAV A St. Johnsbury Doctor Acquitted.

In the suit for malpractice, on trial last week, at Newport, in favor of F. S. Gordon v. Dr. E.

E. Dickerman of West Burke, and Dr. E. H. Ross of this place, both of the defendants were acquitted.

The alleged malpractice was in amputating the leg of the plaintiff, below the knee, July 18, 1898. At the close of the plaintiff's testimony the court ordered a verdict for Dr. Dickerman, on the ground that he was so engaged in administering ether to the plaintiff at the time Dr. Ross and the late Dr. Sleeper of West Burke performed the operation, that he could give no attention to what they did.

The court allowed the case to go to the jury against Dr. Ross, on only two points, and on these Dr. Ross' practice was supported as entirely skiUlul and proper, bv the testimony of Profs. Gile and Frost of Hanover; of Dr. M.

Allen and Dr. W. J. Aldrich of this place, and of Drs. Whittaker and Bogue of Newport.

The jury promptly returned a verdict in favor of Dr. Ross, and, on inquiry, 'the court found that the condition of the limb, when amputated, was as described in the testimony of Dr. Ross. Stock Quotations. H.
