bills paid, $2,069.65. .
Mr. Conner of Conner Brothers,
stated that he had proposed to do a
little macadam work at the watering
trough, but owing to the fact that his
machinery had got out of order he
doubted whether he could do more
than carry out his present contract,
and begged to be released"from his
verbal agreement to macadamize the
spaceireferred to.
On . motion of Burgess
Conner was released from
contract.
A Wilton avenue gentleman com-
plained that he had been served With a
notice of a borough tax of nearly $330
before he had fairly entered upon pos-
ession of his house, claiming also that
it was excessive—more than twice what
it ought to be. Obtaining no Satisfac-
tion the gentleman retired in good
order. -
A. A. Chinery referred to an errone-
ous assessment. He being a discharged
soldier was entitled to a thousand dol-
lar exemption which had not been
made. Borough Attorney Warner ex:
plained that it was a clerical error.
E. B. Mitchell took out apeddler’sli:
cense, $10, which he had never used,
and as he did not intend to use it he
begged that'his ten dollars be refunded.
Burgess Kent moved that Mr. Mitch-
ell’s prayer be granted, which was
adopted. '
The case of Mrs. Martha Marvin, a
woman over 60 years of age, witha
limited income, was presented by Dr.
C. B. Coolidge, who urged an abate-
ment of her borough tax on the ground
of poverty. After a full explanation
by Dr. Coolidge a motion for such
abatement was made by Burgess
O’Reilly, but withdrawn. The matter
is likely to come up again with similar
cases.
Burgess O’Reilly moved that here-
after curb setters shall be required to
take out a license of one dollar annual-
lv. The subject went over for a time.
~ Warden Keeler said that several tax-
payers had asked for an extension of
time of tax paying from July 1 to the
15th,without penalty. On motion of
Burgess Buxton the desired extension
was granted.
Burgess Bowe brought up the matter
of selling fireworks. for our coming
national celebration,~ and moved that
the customary notice respecting such
sale, etc., be issued by the warden.
Carried. -
Water Commissione Street presented
apetition from Ira Cole and others,
property owners on Stewart and Elm-
crest avenues, praying for water, the
cost of supplying the same being
roughly estimated at $2,400.
Borough Engineer Wood presented
a map of Elmcrest avenue, at the re-_
quest of Mr. Ira Cole, and asked the
acceptance of the avenue by the Court
of Burgesses. On motion of Burgess
Bowe the same was accepted.
On motion of Burgess Bowe the
warden was authorized to call a bor-
ough meeting to take action on several
matters which had been brought up
from time to time. - . ,
Burgess Burton inquired whether
Borough Attorney Warner had looked
into the Greenwood matter. He re-
plied that he had and that on the south
end of Mr. Greenwood’s lot there were
four 'or five feet which had never been
used by the town for highway pur-
poses.
Attorney Hurlbutt said he had ex-
amined the matter, representing Mr.
Greenwood, and that he considered it
necessary to have a competent engi-
neer make necessary measurements,
etc., in order to determine just what
Mr. Greenwood’s rights were, and that
he only desired what. was reasonable
and fair in the premises.
On motion of Burgess Buxton the
subject was referred to the highway
committee with power to settle the
difficulty at the earliest practicable mo-
ment.
On motion of Burgess Bowe the,
chairman of the finance committee was
authorized to borrow $3,300 on the
credit 0! the borough for the use of
Bowe Mr.‘

roadway of Riverside avenue was re-
ferred to the highway committee with
power.
man of the finance committee was an-
thorized to borrow the sum of $1,700
on the credit of the borough. This in
addition to the $3,300 previously au-
thorized makes the total sum borrowed
$5,000. _ ~-
On motiOn of Burgess Bowe it was
.resolved that when the court adjourn
it be to a date one week from last night.
On motion of Burgess O’Reilly, the
action of a former Court of Burgesses
respecting the adoption of the East
avenue layout was ratified.
,Attorney Hurlbutt criticised the ac
.tion of the highway committee in do-
ing certain work in East avenue pend-
ing an agreement between the Courto
Burgesses and himself to go to the
scene of the ancient trouble and decide
if possible, what was best to be done.
“The Court of Burgesses has the power
to do what it thinks best fin the prem-
isesand the borough has the power to
pay for it.
Burgess Vanderhoef Said that this
matter in dispute had been discussed
for three years, and that he could not
see how the present court ‘could be
charged with bad faith. He could not
see how the trees could be saved with—
out prejudice to the general layout of
East avenue which had been adopted.
Burgess Kent as a member of the
highway committee, said that he did not
know that the work had begun prior to
the visit of the Court of Burgesses.
Had his opinion been asked for he
would have suggested that the work be
deferred until after such visit.
Burgesses Bowe and Vanderhoef as-
sumed the responsibility for ordering
Contractor Conley to begin the work,
and gave their reasons therefor.
Attorney Hurlbutt asked that a com-
mittee be appointed to assess benefits
and damages.
Dr. Coolidge did not understand that
the East avenue improvement called
for encroachment upon private proper-
ty, therefore he could not see why the
Court of Burgesses should appoint such
a commission as was suggested by Mr.
Hurlbutt.
Mr. Hurlbutt also asked for the ap-
pointment of a committee in the matter
of filling up in front of the Nelson Hub-
bell property at the head of Pudding
lane.
Warden Keeler said that he would
hold the matter of the committee
appointments desired, under advise-
ment until he could consult the bor-
ough attorney. _
On motion of Burgess O’Reilly, ad-
journment was ordered.
Novel Scare—crow.
Rev. Dr. Noble has not traveled all
over the inhabitable globe for nothing.
Having a fine bed of strawberries in
his garden, which he takes pride in
tilling himself, and a very large family
of friendly robins about, which he
greatly loves, he soon learned that he
must do something to keep the birds in
some sort of awe, so as to get a fair di-
vision of the berries. Reasoning from
experience and observation, he said
it would be useless to set up the effigy
of a woman in the bed, for the stupid-
est robin knows that a woman can’t
throw a stone, nor would it be effectual
to put up the caricature of a man, for
so few. men are what they seem and
fewer ever “get there,” when they
essay it, that the robins were no doubt
well “on to it,” so he thought he would
try something original. He brought
from the garret his wife’s skeleton
dress form, ran a bean pole down
through it, draped it with his Chinese
pajamas and put his low crowned hat
on top. The good Doctor’s success was
triumphant. The poor mystified rob-
ins can’t tell whether it is a man, a
woman, a mermaid or a “what-is—it,”
and so keep clear of the beds.

Funeral of Charles Fisher.
The funeral of. Charles Fisher, the
veteran actor, and who died on Thurs-
day, took place from the Little Church
Around the Corner, in New York, Sun-
day afternoon. The pall bearers
were William Winter, 0. W. Couldock,
Maurice Barrymore, Daniel H. Har-
kins, Joseph J efi'erson and J. H. Stod--
dard.
On the coffin were four floral pieces,
one a magnificent bouquet of - white
roses, being from Mrs. George Gould
who was Miss Edith Kingdom.
The service was the simple burial
service of the Episcopal church, and
was read by the Rev. George H. Hough-
ton. Of Mr. Fisher it may well be said,
he was “a man of infinite jest,” and has
many times delighted Norwalk. as well
as thousands of other people by his in~
imitable talent. His first voyage across
the ocean for his English home was
taken in theold Collins line side-wheel
steamer Atlantic, over 30 years ago,
when Charles Wheatleigh, Lysander
Thompson, and several other noted
stars, with the editor of the GAZETTE.
were fellow voyagers and there were
few gloomy moments on that trip. Of
all that company only Wheatleigh and
the writer are now alive.

NEWS NOTES AND EXPERIENCES
IN COUNTRY LIFE.
A Review of the Improved Breeds» at
Cattle—The Characteristics Which Mark
Distinctive and Favorite Types. Closely
Defined—Cattle for Beef. ‘
Our native cattle are chiefly the remote
descendants .of English stock imported
in the early settlement of the country,
whatever distinctive "characteristics they
may have possessed at that time have
beenlost or bred out of them by admix-
ture of races, and whatever good quali-
ties some of them now possess are the
results of selection and cultivation, and
cannot be traced back to original blood.
With increased population and wealth
there have come increased attention to
improved breeds of domestic animals
and greater care in prexrving the
various types in their purity.
From England we have derived .the
beautiful Devons, and although some of
' this blood were probably brought over
by early English settlers, the pure
Devons we now have are of more recent
importation. The distinctive charaCter—
istics of this breed are their uniformly
medium size, red color, fine smooth
shape, quick movement and graceful
appearance. They give excellent milk,
though not in large quantities, and in
quality of beef are the equals of any
other breeds. As general purpose cattle,
adaptedto hilly and rough pasturage,
they have no superiors, and their quick
movement and good tempers make them
favorites for the yoke.
The Herefords, another English breed
of larger size than the Devons, exist in
considerable herds in some sections,
where they are held in high favor for
grazing purposes as early maturing beef
cattle.
Of all our foreign breeds none is bet-
ter known or more popular than the
shorthorns and Jerseys, and, differing
widely as they do in their characteris-
tics, each maybe said to stand at the
head of its own class. The large size,
unifomly fine development and adapta—
bility to luxuriant pasturage make the
shorthorns special favorites in blue grass
regions or wherever good rich grazing is
abundant. The Jerseys or Alderneys,
natives of adjacent islands in the Brit-
ish channel, are a breed of small cattle,
angular and rough in shape, as compared
with the foregoing, but widely known
and especially esteemed as a buttermak-
ing breed. The Guernsey's, from an-
other island, are a. semewhat larger
breed with the same characteristics, and
by some are preferred to the Jerseys.
The Ayrshire and" polled Galloways
are from Scotland. The former are con-
sidered an excellent race for the dairy,
the cows having a good reputation as
large milkers; the latter are hardy ani-
mals, enduring cold well, and will thrive
on pastures where shorthorns will not.
They are raised chiefly for beef; mostly.
black in color and without horns. The
Holsteins or Dutch cattle, as they are
sometimescalled, are of large size and
highly esteemed as a. valuable} dairy
breed. In color they are black and
white; It has now become quite com-
mon with progressive-and amateur farm-
ers to restrict their herds to some one of
the improved breeds. By this course a
healthy rivalry is produced among breed-
ers, which naturally tends to a. general
improvement.
Capone and Caponizlng.
Considerable ignorance prevails in re-
gard to caponizing fowls. a prr‘irtir-e
very general in France and one that is
on the increase in this country.
A capon is a cockerel of any breed
that has been castrated. The taking
away from the cockerel the power of
reproduction greatly increases both the
weight of the bird and the tenderness of
the flesh. The consequence is capons
are in demand and as a rule command
about fifty per cent. more per pound than
other fowls. While capons may of
course be of any breed, success is at-
tained with varieties that produce nat-
urally quick growth, with hardnessof
constitution and an aptitude to lay on
flesh.
It is generally conceded that the art of
caponizing is one soon acquired. and
with little practice the operation be-
comes a. simple one. George Q Dow,
who is one of the authorities on the sub-
ject, affirms that “the operation can be
performed in four minutes, and the bird
recovers from it in three days and begins
to lay on flesh. All that is required is a
set of good instruments, which cost now
a comparatively small sum. Cockerels
may be caponized at any time of the
year, but the best time is when the
chick weighs one pound and a. half."
Other authorities advise caponizing at
from three to four months of age.
Bastions for Milk.
At'one of the New York Farmers’ in-
stitutes the query was asked, “What ra-
tion shall we give our cows to make the
most milk?”
:Among other responses was the one,
made by John Tanner, who found the
most profit in one-third corn on the cob,
ground oats one-third, and buckwheat
one-third. He considered bran good,
but not equal to buckwheat. A mixture
suggested by another attendant was 100
pounds of corn meal, .100 pounds of cot—
ton seed meal, and 200 pounds of wheat
bran mixed.
A Word About Clover.
At one of the New York farmers’
clubs F. O. Ives said: We put our clover
into the mow after it has been cocked
up, and put a layer of oat straw in with
. a'layer of clover, and it keeps good, and
the sheep eat it all clean. The oat
Straw has the flavor of the hay imparted
to it. I depot suppose the strawhas
any additional nutriment, but it smells
and tastes better, and the sheep like it,
and will eat more of it thus handled
than when fed alone.
The Florida agricultural department
estimates that Elie orange crop of the
state wail be 1,357,000 boxes, or 63 per
cent. of the crop of 15.5; year.
CABBAGE CULTURE.
The Three Requirements That Are Koo-
essary to Success.
In growing cabbage, whether for early:
- requisites to Success-g—good healthy
. plants, a suitable soil and good cultivat-
: lion. Large growers of this vegetable
} in Michigan give their plan in Vickie.
3 Magazine as follows:
I Our early cabbage is sewn in hotbeds
‘ about the middle of February: the young-
the} grow niler, to insure stocky, well
hamcned plants. The second cropwe
forwinter use about the 20th of April.
The varieties we use are early Jersey
excellent kinds mentioned in catalogues.
It is large, firm, sure to head.. and in
fact reliable in all respects. ‘-
ever a good crop of com can be: raised:
W'e plow our ground early for late crop,
summer fallowing as for wheat. Early
second crop the lat of May, and the third
crop the 20th of June. ' .
In setting we use a peg to makethehol
and insert the plants to the first leaves,
pressing the dirt firmly to the bottom of
the roots with the peg. Whenthe-plants
have straightened up commence cultivat-
ing the soil deeply, and the more fre-
quently the better, for the first four
weeks; never cultivate less than once a.
week until beginning to head.
Impnre Fertilization of Bees.
Thequery, “How far would colonies
of Italians used for queen rearing need
to be removed from hybrids to prevent
their creasing with the hybrid drones?
was recently asked and answered in The
American Bee Journal by a number of
prominent apiarians.
The majority replied, “At least three
miles away;” several favored as great a
distiance as fiveor moremiles. M. Mabin
sai : .
“When there were no Italian bees but
mine in the neighborhood a black queen
nearly five miles away produced yellow
branded bees, and had mated with a
drone from my apiary. If there are
mixed bees within four or five miles
some queens are liable to be niismated.”
G. “I. Demaree replied: “In my opin-
ion drones rarely ever fly more than one
or two miles from their home. This
‘guess’ is based on years of practical ex-
perience. If there were no hybrids or
other race or varieties of bees within two
miles of my apiary I would expect to see
98 per cent. of my Italian queens purely
mated.”
The editor of The Journal said that it
would hardly be safe to count on pure
fertilization if there were impure bees
within five miles
