THE BU11L1NGT0W FREE PRESS: THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1893. 3 AN JSAHLY PIKE. MANY LIVES ENDANGERED BUT ALL WERE RESCUED. Ill i Noilli I'art of I'nrlor'i lllock on V7liinulll Avrnnr flatted Tlta Work of HokciiIdc I'ntlnintnl Loss Tenant l.nto l.ioijflilna. Flro cuttoJ n portion of tba north half of tlio Porter block at tho corner of 1'earl street and Wlnooskt avenue oarly tho morn iui; of tlio 13th and several woman tenant narrowly escaped with thoir liven, onu being talteti down n ladder from a third-story window. The lire was discovered about (i . 1 5 o'clock and nu nlnrm from box 25 was founded toon after. J. V, O'tiullivan, who lives just across tbo silent, lj. N. l'orter, who owns the block, nnd Chief Kngliieer Murray were among tlio llrst to arrive nnd nrotiso the peoplo in the building, which mm lillod with smoke. On tbo Eocoml floor Chief Murray pushed lu the door (it the right of the hallway tind there found MrB. 11. K. Wellman, on aged ledy, and daughter, Helen M. AVellmati, tiyin to dress them eolvpi. Mrs. Woliniau ua3 tluplIUJ, but was nblo to wall;. ribo did not want to leave tho room but Chief Murray took her in bin arms Into Mr. O'tSulHvan'i resldeuci, tbo daughter loilowlng. Mr. O'Hulllvouawokfl I.eirur aud (' ara JoLnion, who occupied rooms across the hull way from Mm. od:uau'n, and al though partially nulfoeatjJ, tbsy made their wny out of the building in thoir night clothes with hie assistance. In tho iimn timo other llroniiii hud assisted tho othor tetiuute, Mr,. Church nnd eon and the Gal lagher xisters, ull in their night robes, to Mr. O'Sulllvaii's house. tiiuoko puthoro.l in the south half of the block and forced tnoso living there to seek tba abcltitr of neighbors. It was no dense in tho hallway us to iiiiiUu it precarious to descend by tho Btnirwny and a laddor was hoisted to tbo window on tbo south end, Mrs. Cormier be ing helped from the building this way. whilo two medical students, and Mlstes Kloronco Allen aud Katie l'ago wero as sisted down ths stairway byflroniou. They wero only partially dressed. Meanwhile tbo Iituana, Stars, Boxers, Uarnes aud Hooks were at tbo scene, and seven streams of water were soon bciu; thrown on the lire, which had tuado consid erable progreti, the flames rising from tba roof, in a short limo it was under control, however, though It was extinguished with great difficulty. Tbo partitions wero con strusted of planed boards covered with wall paper, ami tba blaze made ltd way from uco room to another vory quickly, liy porsist cut effort, honever, and a liberal use of axes and water, the Inst spark near tbo chimney in the roof was put out at 1) o'clock. i U often tba rase, about twice as much demure was done by water as by fire. At b o'clock, when four of tho streams wero suspendsd, water stood in some of tho rooms to the depth of six inches on the eciuJ, und threa inches on the third lloors, and tba stairway was transformed into u small brook. fiuine say the fire originated from a coal stove in tbo back loom of J. M. Storrs' meat market, nulla others conteud that it caught from a defective Hue. It is probable that the former view of it is correct. The woik of destruction was tho most complete nround tho chimney, the lire spreading ns It progressed upward. Un toe urst lloor the fire was confined to the back room of Storrs' meat muiket. Tho east half of the second and tho whole of tba third stories of the north half of the block, ivero badly damaged. A portion of the roof fell In. The upper story and roof of the building adjoining, owned by fcietli Carey, wero slightly damaged, 'ilia storus in tbo block wero mora or les Hooded. M. h. Sanborn' grocery nnd M. J. Hewitt's nio.it market, which join Storrs' murkot ou either side, all of which wero directly under the lire, receiv ing the greater part of the viator. Water also made its way to E. X. l'orter's rooms ou the second ibor mid M. H. Cormier's ou the tuird lloor, in the soutb end of the block, doing more or loss damage. THE I.NnlT.A.NCE. The agency of T. S. l'eck had tho follow ing insurance ou the block: Un building, IS'JUUO; on Mr. l'orter'- housohold furaiture, !;GU0; on Mr. Michael l Cormier's bouto hold furniture, $700; on stock and fixtures of George J.ovelund A: Co., $750. The agei.fy of Hiekok & Bailey bad in surances as fulloue: On building, 1000; M. L. Bi-.nboi D, iJ-JUOO; both Carey, fS'JO; George I.ovolniul & Co., $700; J. M. Storrs, S'.'uo. ESTIMATED 1.03SE3. The loss on the building is estimated nt about :f:!0J0. Tba damage to Mr. l'orter's furniturn will not exceed $o0J, that of Mr. C ormier's if I 0 nnd that of I.ovelaud & Co. iJ-oOO. The damage on the throe lattor is by emoke and water, as wll as removal. The lire bad undoubtedly been amoldorlng for some time. lUt HOMELESS LADIES INTERVIEWED. A Fncn l'm:ss representative interview ed tbo lady occupants of the block nud their stutements nro appended. Mrs. Wellmnn and daughter and the Miissos Johnson wore seen lit Mr. L. I'. Willjui'a, nhero, by th courtesy of Mrs. Wilbur, tbey will remain until suitable quarters can b-j tecured. Mrs. Wellmcu said that she was partly suffoca ted; she aud her daugbter tiad beau up 15 minutes; her daugbter was afraid she Mould take cold and "us trying to get same clothes on hor before going out doors. They got Fome of their clothing after tho lira und portion of it can probably be made of some use. 'i heir piano was not burned aud asit was covered with rubhor cloin they hoped it vut not ruined. There was no insurance on any of their goods. Mrs. Chuich, v. ho occupied rooms on the third iloor, was the first todiecov-sr the fire. Hhe arose, awoke many of tbo others in tbo building, forgetting to call her owu son, ho is about 10 years of age, hut happily be hosrd her rapping on tho doors below nnd got up. She lost everything except hor gold watch which was found and returned to her by a fireman. .No iusuranc. The Misses Johnson occupied loom) on the eocood flor over Mr. Storrs' meat morkot, where tbo fire probably originated. Thay wore nearly sull.iciud whan they awoke; tbey wero drlvon out in their night clothos, going to Mr, l'orter's, when tbey got a few clothes, then to Mr. .O'Hulli van's and nftsrward to Mrs. Wllburs's.

Tho Slnto I'onrd of Agriculture held a very succa?sful two-day farmers' Institute at llrnttloboro ou Thursday and Trlday, February I) nnd 10, nt which nu extended programme was carried out. Uov. Fuller, Col. G. V. Hookor, Mr. C, 1). Whitman of the Maple Sugar exchango woro among tho speakers. On Thursday afternoon, Messrs. H. W. Vail and J. U. Sanford of tbo board spoko on "Modern devclopmants In butter making," nnd "Wintor care of stock" respectively, uud their remarks were discussed ns follons: Mrs. A. A. C. Ware. Mr. Vnll's re marks ou tho modern developments in but ter making bnvo called back to me the old wasp, the dash churn, tbo crank churn, tho uco of tbo finger ns a thermometer aud the many means wheroby wo wore apt to spoil both butter and temper. I think that vo used to overnork our butters in thoso days, nnd I know wo girls uere overworked, and one of the great modern devolopmonts in this lino in my opinion Is that the dairy work has largely passed from the woman to tho mnn, and often to tho creamery or cheese factory. The course ill methods of milk handling stems to bo upwards. Tbo shallow nud deop settings now have to oom peta with tho separator. 1 hope that sorao Ibiug yet may be Invented to handle mill: as thorously and mora cushy than Jjtha seuorator, for it is quite a tnk to run one either by man or nulmnl power, but 1 am convinced that tba separa tor system is the tystein of tho futuro. Quo of tbo modern developments lu this line is towards making u more uniform prod uct. Different makes mnka dlllorlug grados, wboroas plenty of one good grnde is bettor. I want to ask .Mr. Vail whether frosted on siloge affects the quality of butt:r; I think myself it does. Mr. Vail I believe that it Is liable to hurt tbo milk. In fact over-feeding of frostod or bad ensilage or clover, of musty corn fodder directs tho product. So do odors nrouud the baru In general, nnd I think I hat tho ill effects soinotimo charged nguhict ensilage are due to the absorption of its odor by tho milk after it is drawn from the cow, Mr. Wars How Ions can milk stay in the stnble after milking beforo it becomes affected by odors ? Mr. Vail It absorb? more quickly as it grows cyoler. You can't get it away lrom the baru any too soon. Mr. Stnll'oid Can we dispense with such grain foods' us bran, which wo can't rniso but have to buy, if wo use roots or on sllugo? Mr. Vol! No sir. Iirnn contains pro teiue, wiiich roots and eusiluge largely lack. A balanced ration must contain both uro teine, the llcsh f mining, aud carbohydrates, the beat foiming constituents. To get rid of buying so largely, grow more clover nnd cure it well, cut buy early nud feed neither too rich or too poor ix ration. Question How do you euro your clover bay ? I cut It nnd let it heat in the cock for a day; it seems to soften It and it may bo gotten In greener. I don't dry mlno as much as I ussd to do and bollove I (jot a boiler food lu cousequonce. Mr. Wheeler U by do cattle eat boards ? Mr. Vail Tbey want pbospbato, their food lacks it. 1'ecd tliem bran, bono meal or wood nsbts anil thay ,ill not have the craving for a hoard diet. Mr. Gardner I think that cottonseed meal will also supply this want. What's tho valua of white top grass ? Mr. Vail It is prolty poor ctulf whether cut early or late. Mr. Wheeler There are threo kinds of white top growing iu Wiudham county, ono is liko oarly June grass, one has a head like tbo spran ling oat grass uud u third a head like orchard grass. Karly cut some of tbem are food, but late cut all are vory poor. Mr. Vnil Wo call some of these grosses poverty grass, and I verily bellovo that a cow would get as much actual nutriment out of beiuiock sawdust ns from those grasses. The singing of the I'rotectivo Grango choir, of Miss Goodonough aud Mrs. Spragua of Urnttlaboro nnd Mr. Miller of Duiumer ston, added proatly to tho interests of the meeting, which in many respects wero tho best held by tho board this year. "Dlsnuset of I'lilatons" 1)N (tlssul by I'i'of. Jiini'R at IllH Miornhiiin MuuUuk, Tbo State Hoard of Agriculture held a two dnya' iustituu at Shorebam in Addison county the lutier part of last week. Among tho apoakers os Prof. I.. 11. Jones of the l.'nivarslty of Vermont, viho lectured ou dlsodsos cf potatoes, illustrating bis remarks by the use of tbo storeopticou. Ho eaid that tbera v.ere threo Important potato disoasai in Vermont, tlio true blight, the scab uud a now disease which might be calUd the early blight. The first two nio caused by fuugus groAths, tba third sojuis to be due to tho work of both fungi mm bacteria. For the first two we possess more or loss prac tical remedies, and investigations looking toward the checking of tlu latter nro al ready undor way nnd will form tho main lino of botanical research at ths I.xptrlmeut station during tho coming summer. During tho past threo yBurs tho spraying of a fungicide uuon tbo potatoes to check tho trus or later blight has increase 1 thecroe ia round numbsrs SO, 75 and "(10 bushels per acre, worth from if,!!) to if 130 per acre, Tho cost of cprayms nu acre varies from 75 cents to if;! for materials and 50 cjnts for labor. In tho work at the Experiment Station during tba past summer three spray ings were made, July !i0, August lit and '5, tbo field being divided into 10 plots, some of which received no treatment what ever, the others receiving various treat ments At tills point tbo spsnkor showed lantora slides i.lustratlvo of tbesa plots. 1'erh.ip, as striking as auy wore of two adjoining plots, one untreated, tbo other wrll sprayeJ, tak-n 111 the luiddla of September, the one with every vino dead, tlio othor n mass o!

It Is tnfo to say thit liom a uuaitt-r to n third of tiu potato crop lu weight of tubers grows nfler Augus! ;'U, GMlcron Cry is? PifchsfXCaslori und often nft"r Saplauilxr 1, This la Illus trated well by n couplo of last sumuur's plots above inslanced. 'J he unsprayed plots yielded at the rnto of 100 bushels of sound maiketnhle tubers per aero nnd 20 bushels rotting tubers ot uiarkotablo slzs, while ths sprayed plot ylolded at tho rata of 300 bush els per ncra tound tubra and only two bushels rotten tuhars. The gain then from prolonging tbo life of the vino was almost ten times that from clucking tho rot, a gain mada entirely alter August 1 nud most ly after August 15, There wora several fungicides treated at tho experiment station last summer and (he old standby, Dordonux mixture, made of six pounds ot copper sulphate (sometimes called blue vltrol or blue stone) four pounds fresh lime and from SO to -15 gallons ot vntor proved most clllclunt. It Is best ap plied in a spray in order to thoroughly cover Ibelenves, nnd best beforo tbo disease nppearp, suy about July Ul), followed by one or two more applications at intervals of n fortnight. 1 bo spraying may bo done lu a small and imperfect wny by use of a pail nnd broom, or by a watering pot, but bat ter by a forco pump on n barrel with hose nud nozzle, Tbo knnp.-nck sprayer doei good work but consumes mun power. The scab is caused by n fungus growth upon the tuber. It nppeara as a peculiar delicate grayish mould, especially promi nent about the edes of the younger spots. Investigations shows that scabby seed pro duces n scabby crop; thit clean, disease freo tubers will raise a clean crop, provided soil nnd manure ara freo from tbe disease; that smooth potntoes from a scabby lot are uusafa as tbey are liable to have scab germs clinging to thorn; that tbn disiase lingers in the ground yeur after year; tbnt scabby pota toes feJ stock made scabby manure, carry ing dhoaso to the soil it is used uuon; that baet", turnips, olc, will catch the disease; and that if scubby potatoes are soaked in a weak solution of cprro3ivo sublimate tbe germs are killed and tbe potatoes safe to use for seed on undiseased ground and with uudiseased manure. The Stato Hoard of Agriculture held In stitutes last week nt Addison und Suore hum in Addison county. Tbe Addison meet ing closed Wednesday ovanlng, was well at tended nud much IntereH was shown. Wed nesday morning Mr. Arms of tbo Hoard spoko on ,-Sbeep husbandry" saying that he was a believer iu mixsd farming for most of our farmer?, depending on market, loca tion, individual qunlllloitions, tbe tbousaud and ono things that go to make up the problem. There is no class of workers which neods versatility of talent, iagenulty nud skill tbnt the farmer does. Ue should be chemist, botanist, lawyer, manufacturer and should be endowed with tho best of common sense nud a good wife to bo suc cessful. I bollove In a modorate sized dairy, a littlo "horso dairy," nnd a faw sheep can bo kept nlso to good ndvautagc. Tbey take lass work and care, less every day wear and toar thun nny other farm property. Profits ara not ns largo as they have been or ought to be, yrt tbey generally pay, particularly if they ba mutton shoap. With ordinary luck nnd management a man may approxi mate 50 per cent profit from a small flock. Compare this with tbo tens of thousands of cows Kept nt n loss In this State. If tbe fnr West could raUo clotbins wool sheep, 1 would not stand hero to sdvocuto the breeding of such shoop, but it cinnot. Tuey deteriorate, the wool becomes harsh aud the animal leas valuable and n great field is open for Ver monters to raise rams to sell West and else where for breeding purposes. This is a fast developing industry cud our grand children will not ba nblo to supply the de mand. Tbe crusting ot mutton sheep upon merinos produces an excellent animal in n short tun). Sheep improve tho pastures decidedly and, it not too many are put iu, do not interfere with tbo cows. I have in years past mado Cotswolds my pats. 1 bad the larjioit Hack in New Hng land nnd as many llocks of sheep. Thny have no herding quulltlss. I imported fed Cotswolds in lb70 uud took them to Now Mexico to c: oss on tbe Spanish merinos of that country. They produce at most about throe pounds ot wool npeico yearly. My first clip was 7000 pound from -1000 sheep, an enormous yield for that country. My Mrt clip after crossing o:i the Cotswolds was oer seven pounds a head. Such a cross makoi a flno ilock of middle sheep. Sheep help our pastures and our purses aud tba profitable early lamb3 our palates and our purses. Do not keep your sheen too long for they are not good for fattoning when they got too old. l'asturo your shep in your mowings iu tho fall, both will bo the better for it. Grain tuem well. A bushel of grain fed In tho fall 13 worth two fed in the winter to fatton lambs, but start in gradually. I grain my sheep every day they are in tbe barn; bava tried to go with out with ill success. Would you raise twins ? As for raising twins I think oue good In m I j is better than two poor ones.
