Two Perish in Fire Near Palmerston TRAGEDY ON FARM OF CHARLES WINDFLADE ABOUT TEN MILES FROM PAL SERIOUSLY BURNED ALSO. (Intended for last week) Two children of Charles Wind- flade, farmer, of Arthur Townshiji, whose place is about 10 miles north- west of Palmerston, were burned to death last Thursday morning when the residence wat. completely de- stroyed by fire. One'child’ of _ the three who were alone in the house when the fire started was rescued, but in the attempt to save the oth- ers Mrs. Windflade was severely burned and her: condition is report- ed to be critical. The father, also, was burned about the hands and face, but his injuries are not regard- ed as dangerous The fire occurred some time after the two elder children had left home to attend school and the mother and father had gone to the harn to at- tend to routine chores. Seme time later, on looking to- ward the house, the parents -discov- ered smoke coming through the roof near a chimney and fearing for the “lsgafety of the three younger children who had. been left’ there, —_ “to the house which was found to be in flames. One child was taken to saf- ety, but Pearl, aged five, and Rosa aged two, they were unable to res- cue from the fire end smoke. al though the most hazardous efforts were = to locate and bring them to Dr. ". B. Coleman. coroner, of Palmerston, was called to the scene, but an inquest will not be held. The fire completely destroyed pred Windflade residence, high standard of farm Seda ae aud, Pr the contents were lost as well, as the rn devoted the whole time at their disposal to efforts to rescue the “children, It is understood . the fire is the result of some defect in the chimney. Milk-Producing Cow is _ Entitled to Good Feed In order ito be most profitable, all live stock’ must be fed for a definite purpose: For instance, a beef cow can be maintained very succese- fully and very cheaply on mage cheap feed such as corn fodder, co silage, hay and etraw. It would fs a waste of money to feed such a sow any considerable amount of grain. A cow producing milk teat by the win- ter months, however, requires a good ae ration liberally ‘Ted in addition a liberal Vere grit of good roughage rs. po it would be just as much a waste of money not to give this grain. to the cow in milk as it would be to give it to the dry cow that doesn’t need it.. Likewise there are proper feeds and proper amounts of feed re- quired by every type of live stock and the most economical and profit- able feeding practice is to give each type of animal the kind and amount of Na needed by thag type of ani- mal.
