To ALL. particularly invalids, spring is a trying

CHICK EMS VS.. COLORADO BEETLES 1t has
been stated that poultry will not eat the
Colorado potato beetle; but the experience
OF our townsman, DR.. W. c. Hickok, would
seem to indicate the contrary. DR.. Hickok
informs US that he had last year two patches
Of potatoes. through which his fowls, old
and young, had free range. In these patches
no potato bugs were ever seen. while in an
adjoining patch of half an acre belonging
to neighhor. and separated from his own
only by an open board fence, his neighbor
found the beetles abundant and kepttw or
three boys busy in destroying them. In
another patch of DR.. uickok's, to which
his fowls did not go. DR.. Ii. found plenty
Of the beetles. DR.. Hickok asks, if it was
not the fowls that kept the beetles from the
patches where they were not seen, what

Insurance MnllerS.

The following announcement If recent
tional Life Insurance Co. of Montpelier, is
frcm the HGtchmaa and Journal and is
doubtless authorized by the managers:
The National Life Insurance Company OF
vermont from its earliest inception las pur-
sued conservative and prudent course. and
its success has been one of the most marked
oil anytcompany now in existence. 1t is lit
tie wonder that its exceptional prosperity
should attract the attention of the probes
sional blackmailers and wreckers, who live
by levies laid upon such companies, and
whose object is to secure possession OF
company, divide its surplus among them
selves, and then wreck the company. At
least three different attempts have been
made to accomplish this result with
with the company here. And as
there was no stock. and the public gen.
orally have had such unbounded confidence
in the honesty and capacity of its officers
that they never attended the annual meet
ings. the possession of few proxies, co
verify obtained, would place the company
IN the control of any association of men who
might conspire for such an object.
To obviats this danger, the directors OF
the company have issued, and subscribed for
themselves, under their act of Incorporation,
sixtysix thousand dollars of stock, and have
paid the money into the company. 1t is
guaranteed seven per cent. stock, but does
not share liz the surplus or the prospective
profits of the company. |! this action shall
have the effect Of promoting the prosperity
of the Institution, We think all parties-espe-
cially those holding the st0ck-are to be

holders do not approve of the measure and
that they will probably apply to the courts
