The winter session of the Board of Agr-
nesday, Thursday and Friday of last week
was very well attended. The weather proved
quite favorable, the storm ON Wednesday,
however, probably keeping many away. Its
organization was effected as follows: Hon. ID.
II. Thing, Mt. Vernon, President; L. a. Gil
bert, Green, Vice Presidents S. L. Goodale,
Secretary. An address OF welcome was given
by Hon. Hannibal Belcher one of the most
prominent lawyers and amateur farmers of
Franklin county, responded to by the chair
man of the Board. This, with the usual
routine business, appointing of committees
&c, occupied the chief part of the opening
day.
Inasmuch as the region of country about
Pennington is well adapted to dairy farming,
the Secretary, perhaps wisely, made arrange
ments that the exercises of the session should
be chiefly directed TO this important branch
of agricuture-and consequently the greater
number of addresses made had special refer
ance 10 some of the many divisions of this
subject. Rev. Mr.. Quincy Of Foxcroft-one

well as preach-treated '.cheese and cheese

The more proper form of action is an ac-

8 Barn. & Cresw., coo. Langridge v. Levy.
Wees. & Wells, 5l9.
1t is incumbent on the plaintiff Affirmative
ly to show,
1st That the trader was guilty of negi-
gence in selling the one article for the other.
ID That the buyer was not guilty of neg
ligence in using one for the other.
The first depends on principle of law, and
the second is purely question of fact. Of
these in their order.
I. The defendant was guilty of negli-
gence.
That may be negligence in a trader which
would not be in others. This follows from
the rule of implied warranty which is that
the articles which trader sells must be the
same in kind at least, as that he sells them
for. Bridge v. Vain. Starkie, 50i.
A trader holds himself out to the public as
having 4 superio: knowledge of the articles
he sells, sufficient at least to distinguish
them and if he does net have such knowledge
and provide himself with agents who have it,
he makes false professions to the public, and
the law holds him to the responsibilities he
has voluntarily assumed.
ii. The plaintiffs negligence did not con-
tribute.
As he bought the article for rock salt, and
it resembled rock salt closely in appearance,
the difference was not such as would be ap-
parent to man of ordinary care, thus
thrown off his guard. Finding for plaintiff.
