The Vermont Chronicle, published in
Windsor county, which gave the largest ma
jority of any county in the State against the
ratification Of the Maine Law, thus tcstites to
its benefcent operation:
"When the law was first published, not a
few very worthy citizens had doubts about it.
In many cases these doubts so prevailed as
to prevent their voting in its favor. But it
has now had a brief trial among us. So far
as the questions raised respecting it have come
before the Courts it has been sustained as a
constitutional law,-such as it lies within the
power of the Legislature to enact. 1t has
emptied at least three Of our county jails.--
The testimony from every part Of the State
is, that it operates favorably-that the well
being Of the community is promoted by 1t.
Even in Windsor county, where It's admins
tration has been in unfrendly hands in a
most important particular, and needless ncon-
vcnience may have resulted, and where the
opposition has been exceedingly active, we
believe the conviction of its value has been
constantly extending and becoming more
fixed.

A CRY WITH 10000 INHABITANTS De
srRoYED.-In the foreign news by the Allan
tic, Sunday it is stated that on the 1st of May
the City of Sbiraz in Persia, was destroyed
with twelve thousand of its inhabitants, by
the shock of an earthquake. This is the Sec
ond city in Persia and in former times had
a population of 10000 persons, but an earth
quake in 1924 nearly destroyed it. 1t was
formerly place of great beauty, and it is
celebrated by the Persian poet Hafz, who
was native of Shiraz, for its beauty and fer
tility. Since the earthquake of 1924 it has
greatly declined in both, most of lis public
structures having been ruined by that calam-

MALARIA ON THE RICE PLANTATIONS
A writer in New York paper, giving an
account of the rice plantations of South Car
DINA, aays:
"There is time for every thing. Winter
Is the time to enjoy the Injuries of the rice
plantation. The summer malaria Of the irri-
gated fields is deadly poison nightly infused
through the atmosphere, fatal to all unaccli-
mated whites who breathe it. even those few
(chietly families of overseers) who have been
brought up in it are generally feeble and os
weak constitution. As to the degree of dan
ger to Others, Il would as soon stand Fifty
feet from the best Kentucky rifleman and be
shot at, as to spend night on my plantation
in summer" said a Charleston gentleman.
Two instances of the deadly work it some-
times does We're also mentioned to me. A
party of six ladies and gentlemen went out of
town tospend a day at the mansion Of a rice
planter on an island. BY an accident to their
boat their return i'll the afternoon was inter
rupted, and they went back and shut them
selves within the house, had fires made, which
they sat around all night, and took every 9TH
er precaution to guard against the mia ma.
IcNcltIcicSS, /o~ " WtHt uttU rom IT, Ell

ed severely.
Two brothers owned plantation on which
they spent the winter; one of them, as sum-
mer approached was careful to 90 to another
residence every night the other delayed to
do SO until it was too late. One morning he
was found to be i'll; physician could not DO
procured until late in the afternoon by which
time his recovery was hopeless. The sick
man besought his brother not to hazard his
own life 10y remaining with him, and was
obliged before the sun set to take last fare
well, and leave him with the servants in whose
care in the course of the night he died.
Negroes, although they do not enjoy as
good health on the rice plantations as else
where, are not subject to this fatal local fever.
The malaria seems to be more deadly in South
Carolina than in Georgia. Except during
the summer, and in the early months, the rice
plantations are very healthy, and the climate
of the country in which they are situated, rs
| Experienced it, is most delightful; sufficient
ly mild to permit one to dress lightly, and
not requiring close apartments for sedentary
occupation, and sufficiently cool not to cause
lassitude or early fatigue, even in vigorous
exercise.

BELoIT CoLLEGE.-The Journal represents
this institution to be in highly fourishing
condition. 1t says:
THE condition of the College as present
ed to the Board of Trustees at their annual
meeting, we understand to be prosperous, and
its prospects promising. The number of stu
dents who have been connected with the Col
lcge classes during the year is 80. The
whole number in all the departments has been
1913. The finances of the College have been
ably managed. The current income for the
year has been sufficient to meet the current
expenses, and from subscriptions considera-
Die amount has been realized towards detray-
ing the debt incurred by past Deficiencies
The College has funds on interest TO the
amount of nearly $4,000 dollars. Conslde-
rable sales of land have been made during the
year, to good advantage. The whole proper
ty belonging to the institution is estimated
as something over $4,000.
AN appointment has been made to fill
the chair of Rhetoric and English Literature,
which we trust will prove successful, and 9th
er arrangements are made to give increased
efficiency to the departments of instruction"
GERev Mr. Hubbell, who was dismissed
from his parish, at Avon, Conn, because his
wife wrote, "Shady Side; or, The Trials of a
Clergyman's Life" has received a call to
preach in North Stonington Conn.
EgLa Sale is proving that she is really
a city. A few days ago, the body of man
who had been murdered, was found in the

another, killed at the works on the Central

so numerous that it is impossible to count

LIQUOR AND CRIME.-New York and Ii
verpool rank in the same class as cities. The
criminal convictions in New York during
1852, reached $500; in Liverpool, they reach
ed only 610 In 1851, Liverpool licensed
1924 places to sell liquor; New York licensed
1854, and there were 85l unlicensed rum
holes. In Liverpool the rum shops were clio
sed on Sunday; in New York they remained
open. Do not these rum statistics thiow
some light on the disparity in crime between
Liverpool and New York!

AUDAcIoUs.-TheN ew Yorker Demo

that the platform will, sooner or later, need

that an improved plan of railroad is in pro-

secure the passenger from injury, and accom-
plsh his most ardent wish for speed without
danger of running off the rail, or coming in
collision with an opposing train-a plan of
railroad that will enable the passenger or the
mail to reach the Pacific ocean in as many
minutes as there are miles to overcome.

Every thing pertaining to the culture OF
Flax in this country is of importance. Adj
vance in this department of agriculture Is
opening veins of silver and gold for the coun-
try. a large portion is admirably adapted
to this purpose, and there is no reason why
our beautiful plains and valleys should not ri
val those of the Danube and Volga, in their
flax crops.
We notice that Prof. John Wilson of Lon
don, one of the commissioners from Great
Britain to this country, has been requested to
deliver Lecture at the New York State Ag-
ricutural Fair, at Saratoga, upon the culture
and preparation of flax.
MIR. r. Z. Brown, of Charlottesville, In
communication to Gov. Wright, President of
the Indiana State Board of Agriculture, says ::
Il send YOU enclosed few samples of
Flax Cotton presented to me by the Hon. ii.
L. Ellsworth of Lafayette. Mr. Ellsworth
has secured the machinery necessary for the
manufacture of the cotton, and Will have 1t
in operation early in the season. Tie has on
hand the 'stem" grown on 100 acres last sea-
son, which, from experiments already made
will, he supposes, yieled about 800 pounds
Der acre of cotton, similar to No. of the en-
closed specimens. The expense of reducing
the fibre to this state, after the stem Is pro-
duced, is about two cents per pound, which
at the usual price for cotton, (lOc) will leave
s cents per pound, or $24 per acre for the
farmer who produces it. To this must be
added the value of the seed, which will range
fl ON Sc to So per acre--giving final result
of $40 at least for each acre. This Is Mr.
Ellsworths calculation; it may be to high;
but if we allow for the magnifying effect of
his zeal one third, or even one half still flax
would be as profitable a crop, in proportion
to the amount of labor required to produce
it, as any of the staples of the country.
