members, and,
On motion, proceeded to the election
of officers, as follows:

After the organization the milk ques-
ton was very throughly discussed pro
and con, some finding fault with Messrs.
Cumming, Baker & Co., the consignees
for not fulfilling the agreements, or
rather their assurances that milk would
net the producers five cents a quart.
They were ably defended by others con-
tending that Messrs Cumming, Baker &
Co., could not pay that amount for ii as
the Milk Dealers Union, of New York,
had voted and would not pay only five
cents a quart delivered in New York,
whereas they received ten and twelve
cents per quart at retail. Remarks on
the subject were made by Messrs. Hol-
lister Child, McNaughton, Hopkins,
Conglon, Fuller. and others. The
whole debate seemed to be that all was
needed was concert of action with 9th
er associations now forming for the pro-
ducers to receive their share of the pro-
fits.
A committee of one from each town
was then appointed to present the CON
stitution and bylaws to all milk pro-
ducers for their signatures, as follows:

til he was able to call the epolice to his as
sistance, who arrested her. Upon exam
ination at the police court, Mrs Dams
freely confessed to having taken the
watch, dresses and other clothing The
watch she had not in her possession but
told where it was. 1t seems that she
had been unfortunate in the choice of
her society the evening before, and the
watch had been taken from her by a
young man in West Troy by the name
of Larmar. She had made complaint
that morning to the police; the man had
been arrested and the watch was then
in charge Of police officer.
The trial will be held on the 18th inst.

to the owners. The clothing may be
slightly mussed, but the watch will be
all right, unless it has gained time by be-
ing in fast company.

The railroad ferry steamer St. Law
renee lay ice bound at her slip in Patter-

cabin was charred as black as a coal.
At the northern end of the building
three piles of valuable lumber, belong
ing to Skillings, Whitney Bros and
Barnes, and containing probably $4,000
feet, were consumed. The total loss
will reach $4,000 to $4,000. Two
bags of mail and all the express matter
which came in on the midnight train
were burned. At the time of the fire
driving snow storm prevailed, and the
reflection of the flames from the billions
of snow flakes, impaired a peculiar
vividness TO the air and made the whole
city nearly as light as day.

The parishioners of the Rev. James
r. Bourne met en- na0SSe at the parsonage
a few evenings ago, completely filling
the house, calling to mind the gatherings
of years agOne when Rev Aldace Walk
er was the beloved pastor of this church,
strongly attesting the reverence and
respect for the present pastor. Mr..
Bourne, on this occasion, received a
purse of 'greenbacks" of $138 and
about $50 i'll other substantial tokens of
respect, acknowledged by feeling and
appropriate remarks.
There has been, since the week of
prayer, much religious interest felt in
the Congregational and Methodist
churches, and especially the Metho-
dists, who are holding a series of meet
ings, resulting, as it is sincerely hoped,
in the conversion of many who have eX-
pressed an interest in the prayers Of the
people Of God. May the leaven spread

e scheme which seems to promise tht

The scheme which seems to promise the
most is something like the following:
1st. One central, national, experiment
tai farm, differed with its chemist, bot
| anist, etc, etc.
I'd. Auxiliary experimental farms
in different agricultural areas.
The central institution should govern
the auxiliary. While the central might
be able to determine all general ques-
tions, it should be the province Of the
auxiliary institutions to repeat expert
ments already made at the central farm
i'll reference to their several agricultural
regions. Thus, the central might see fit
to experiment with new kind of wheat.
The auxiliary farms should repeat the
experiments in their several localities; for
that which might be a good kind OF
wheat for Georgia might not be a good
kind for Maine, etc, thus transforming
the abstract results of the central eX-
peTiments to practical results in geo.
graphical areas. To the central should
belong the higher and more strictly
scholastic and scientific phases of a
qucstion--to the auxiliary, the practi-
cal.
1t may well be questioned if the mere
distribution of seeds is productive of
all the good designed A variety of oats
may come well commended to the Agri-
cultural Bureau, and having been tested
they may be distributed over the COun-
try. Each person receiving a package
must make the experiment for himself
ere he knows the value of the variety
for him. 1t may well be questioned if,
in the experience of the commissioner Of
Agriculture, he attaches much import
ance to the sparse reports he gets from
this source, nor can it be questioned that
experiments made at various points in
the country under his direction accord
ing to prescribed formulate, by trained
eXperimentists with ample means for
conducting the experiments carefully
would solve the question better
Such an institution in consultation
with a board, composed of one reprcscn-
tatiye from every State and Territory,
would, by reason of the Yaricdagricultur-
al interests represented, have brought to
its attention from time to time not only
the questions common to all farmers but
the local problems pertaining to varied
climates and soils and regions.
Such an institution would find its
function not only in determining basic
facts and principles, but of varieties of
seeds and plants, machines and processes,
in the whole matter Of acclimatisation
and new agricultural industries. AS an
example Of the latter, fish culture, who
has as yet determined its value as an

OBSERVER
MILK Producers Association

About two hundred and fifty milk
producers met at Library Hall, Benning-
ton, Thursday, pursuant to the following
call:
Rally! Rally, The milk producers
sending milk to New York on the line
of the Harlem Extension railroad are
requested to meet at Bennington, on
Thursday, Feb. 8th, 1872, at one O'clock,
p, M, to adopt some measure whereby
we can secure more uniform and fair
proportion of the price paid by the con-
sumer in New York.
The meeting was called to order by
Joseph Child, Esq, General Freight
Agent of the Harlem Extension Rail
road, and nominated J. B. Hollister, of
Manchester, chairman, and D. P Eddy,
Of Clarendon, secretary, who were
elected
The chairman read letter from Col.
J. 4. HarWOOd, Of the Massachusetts,
and New Hampshire Mix Producers
Association, sa;ing that pressing bust
ness engagements would prevent his ac-
cepting the invitation, of the committee
to be present at the meeting, and that
he had forwarded the invitation to Rev.
Daniel Rounds, Secretary of the Mass
achusctt~ and New Hampshire Associa-
tion, who, no doubt, would be present.
The President then read a letter from
Mr.. Rounds, saying he could not be

Clarendon Spelling school Again.

y,ish to correct a mistake in your re
port in regard to the spellng-school
held in this place The schools met az
stated. hut the results were as follow, :
The scholars were spelled down four
times. Miss May Fuller Of District No.
, coming off victor the first time, and
Miss VI. Steward of District No , the
second, instead Of Miss Steward first and
an unknown gentleman from the Springs
the second time as was stated before.
Also on word ia regard to the ohiec-
tious taken by Mr. Carpenter concern
ing the books to be used. W" agree
with Mr. Carpenter in his objecting to
the ''Analytical" speller. His argument
was. "thc analytical is a good book. but
it contains words that have French pro-
nuuciatiOns, and many Of the words are
not used 10y farmers. Moreover. this
book has been used in one school only
and it is showing partiality to those
scholars who have used it. while the
majority have not seen it. Il requires
separate study, that Is. you may study
any other book to perfection and vet be
deficient in this work.
And I think Mr., Carpenter proved
himself correct. The scholars being
persuaded to take their stand. Mr. Far
rar proceeded. All went well until a
scholar, not understanding word in
quired its meaning. Mr.. Farrar's reply
was, Il do not know so I can't tell you"
This put ''damper" on the advocates
of the "Analytical' speller
I Ibclieve it is now generally under
stood that the champion school is Dis
trict No, , on the South Flats, and the
champion speller, Miss Marion Z. Stew
ard of District No. ., she having spelled
down the town three successive times
out of six trials We think the little
Barton boy did well, and congratulate
Nr Barton on having such a son.
