He commenced with the construction
OF the Western Vermont Road, fifteen
wears ago, and described the great in
crease ia manufacturing, and IN the
value OF farms, quarries aud all kinds of
property in that region, consequent upon
the opening Of such railroad facilities.
He mentioned the lease Of the Western
Vermont Road ten years ago to the Troy
& Boston Company, which expired last
January the contract between the Rut-
land & Burlington Road and the Reus-
selaer aud Saratoga Company by which
the through travel" to Troy was di-
verted from the Troy & Boston road,
and sent round by Saratoga; the Gppli-
cation to our legislature for relief from
such unnatural diversion Of travel and
freight from the more direct lines his
own earnest and successful efforts to Sc
cure such legislative relief; the passage
of the act compelling fair connections
between connecting roads in this State /;
the testing Of the validity OF the law be-
fore the Supreme Court; and the final
! decision in its favor. Within twelve
hours after the rendering of that dec:-
sion in favor of the Troy & Boston COM
pauy, obtained largely through his own
exertions and at heavy outlay OF his

Boston managers sold him out, by max

Chauncy L. Knapp, editor OF the Lowell
Citizen, we'll known in Vermont as form
erly Secretary Of State, and afterwards
a member Of Congress from Massachu-
sets, was at Montpelier during the spe-

in an editorial letter to his paper the fol-
lowing'reminiscence This was our first
opportunity of looking in upon the leg
islature since the reconstruction OF the
State House, which has been greatly i'm
proved both in exterior and interior ar
rsngement. In the personnel of the leg
islature, the change from the past is al
most entire. We recognized but four in
the whole body who were members
when we were among them: the present
worthy Governor, Mr.. Miner of Man
chester, Judge Kellogg Of Brattleboro,
and Mr.. Clark of Poultney.

This INpANrADo OR ATwooD SHEEP.-
This breed OF American Merinos was
originated by Stephen Atwood Of Wood
bury, Connecticut. In 1918 he bought
one eve OF Col. David Humphreys fer
sl20, and afterwards bred her to rams
in his vicinity, which were of the
Humphreys blood. He followed this
plan until 1880, after which he bred
from rams In his own flock. Colonies
from Atwood's flock spread over the
United States, but the most successful
iuprover of this family has been Edwin
Hammond OF Middlebury, Vt. He made
purchases from Mr.. A:wood's flock from
1874 to 1916, and by consummate judg-
ment ami skill in managing his flock
brought the American Merino to high
state of perfection. By judicious breed
ing he has increased the size and COM
pactness of the carcass, improved the
quality Of the wool, and covered the
sheep completely with close fleece.
Mr.. Hsmmond's ewes weigh from 100 to
$50 pound, and the whole flock, old and
young ewes, and bucks included aver
age about 10 pounds OF anwashed wool
per head. Rams producing 20 to "a
pounds are not uncommon in this flock.
Mr.. Hammond's flock, like all the prin-
cipal fiocks in Vermont,is housed in win
ter and also during wet weather in sum-
mer. The weight of the fleece is made
up not of any extraordinary quantity
of yolk, but by the uniformity and
length of the WOOL which appears to be
nearly the same quality and texture on
every part o! the body, Hr. Hammond
is endeavoring to bring the wool back
TO the buff tint Of the original Spanish
fleece. With him in-and.in breeding has
not produced any deterioration in the
flock, as the sheep are now much larger
and more vigorous and symmetrical thar
their predecessors were Il quarter OF
century ago.
