600 young chickens during 1850. He is en-
larging his accommodations to keep $500 lay
ing hens of the best varieties but still has to
buy eggs. Both hens and chicks are housed
and fed in luxurious, systematic style, the
Matching being done in two incubsting cham
bers capable of holding 5000 eggs each, in
tiers of shallow drawers. where they are
warmed by gas made on the place, and turn
ed daily by women in attendance The
young chick is taken to the broodng- house,
several hours after it is hatched, where it is
kept till three weeks old and creeps under a
hen-mother Of hollow zinc, filled with hot
water aud lined on the under side with blank
citing. After three weeks the lusty young
fowl is put among the laying hens or in the
examining house, where each fowl is confined
in small box and stuffed for two or three
weeks till ready for market. Mr.. Baker can
now fatten 10000 year.

NuTAEGs GRow ON LITTLE TREES which look
like small pear-trees and are generally over
30 feet high. The flowers are very much
like the lily of the valley They are pale
and very fragrant. The nutmeg is the seed
of the fruit, and mace is the thin covering
over this seed. The fruit is about as large
as a peach. When ripe it breaks open aud
shows the little nut inside. The trees grow
on the islands of Asia and in tropical Ameri-
ca They bear fruit for 20 or so years, hav-
ing ripe fruit on them at all Seasons. fine
tree in Jamaica has over 1000 nutmegs on it
yearly The Dutch used to have all this nut
meg trade, as they owned the Banda islands,
and conquered all the other traders and de-
strOyed the trees To keep the price up
they once burned three piles of nutmegs,
each of which was as large as a church. Ma
ture did not sympathize with their meanness.
The nutmeg pigeon, found in all the Indian
islands, did for the world what the Dutch de-
termined should not be done-carried the
nuts, which are their food, into all the sur
rounding countries, and trees grew up again,
and the world had the benefit.

OBTTUARY.



Hon. Charles Wesley Willard died last
week Monday at his home in Montpelier
Mr.. Willard was born at Lyndon June 1s,
1927, and graduated at Dartmouth college in
1851. He Immediately entered upon the
study of the law at Montpelier and was ad-
mtted to the bar of Washington county in
1853. Acting for tipe as reporter Of legis-
lative proceedings for the press, Mr.. Willard
became acquainted with the leading men Of
the State, and 80 commended himself that in
1855, in his twenty ninth year. he was elected
secretary of state. To this office he was re-
elected in 1856. and in 1857 he declined an
other election. In 1860 and 1861 he was a
member of the state senate for Washington
county. In 1861 he became editor of the
Green Mountain Freeman, and subsequently
proprietor. In 1868 he was elected to the
forty-frst congress for the first Vermont
district and was reelected to the forty-sec-
ond and forty-third congresses. His scholar
ship, extensive reading, and familiarity with
public questions in politics and social reforms,
made him very able editor In congress
his ability and readiness as a debater, and his
fearless independence of all leadership won
for him the respect Of all parties. Some sur
prise has been expressed that Governor Proc
tor should have selected one so apparently
feeble physically for the great task OF revis-
ing all the statutes Of the state for the ac-
ton Of the next Legislature but Mr. Willard
cheerfully accepted the trust, and entered up
on and continued the work so vigorously that
the entire manuscript was completed for the
press about the first of April last, and the
most of it in his own handwriting. That
work will he a monument not only to his
great industry, but doubtless also to his criti-
cal knowledge of the law his good taste, and
sound judgment. In his death the State loses
one of her most eminent and trusted citizens
and he will be mourned not only by personal
friends but by a wide public, who esteemed
him for his upright and sterling qualities,
and admired him for his courage and devo-
ton to high ideal. He leaves wife,
daughter and one son, Ashton II. Willard,
graduate of Dartmouth

The Republican candidate for Vice Presi-
dent, is prominent citizen of New York,
has long been one of the most active Repub-
licans, and h regarded as very skillful Or
gauizer. He was twice appointed collector
of the port of New York by Gen. Grant, but
was removed by President Hayes because he
differed with the Administration relative to
the management of the office. There was no
imputation affecting Gen. Arthur's integrity.
Indeed the President rendered him foreign
appointment before his removal. Gen. Ar
thur is said to possess the confidence of the
business men of New York. He has long
been one of Senator Conkling's most trusted
and efficient supporters. He is at present at
the head of the Republican organization in
New York. By profession Gen, Arthur is a
LAWYER.

A COMMON STARTING PoINT.-North Pow
nal Bennington county, Vt, formerly known
as Whppie's Corners. is situated in. the
southwestern corner Of the State, and by the
usually Travelled road one passes in an hours
ride from New York through the conner Of
Vermont by way of North Pownal, into the
State of Massachusetts. In 1851, Chester A.
Arthur. fresh from Union college, went to
North Pownal, and for one summer taught
the village school. About two years later,
James A. Garfield then a student at vii
lams college several miles distant, in order
to obtain the necessary means to defray his
expenses while pursuing his studies, went
also to North Pownal and established a writ
ing school in the same room formerly occu-
pied by Mr.. Arthur, and taught classes in
penmanship, during the long winter even
ings. Thus, from a common starting point
in early life, after the lapse of more than a
quarter of century, years Of manly toll,
these distinguished men are, by the action of
the Chicago convention, brought into a close
relationship before the nation and before the
civilized world.

When about TO lead the final charge at the
battle of Middle Greek, Gen. Garfield pulled
of his coat, tossed it up into tree, and
turning to his men cried Come on, boys
Give them Hail Columbia !" The boys in
blue threw mp their caps with wild shou',
rushed at the enemy and drove them from
the field, the intrepid Garfield always at the
head of his FORCES.

When Gen. Garfield was teaching school in
Ohio near the end of term his trousers be-
came very thin, and while bending down,
one day, he tore one of the knees nearly
around. The chagrined teacher pinned it
together as well as he was able, and that
night made somewhat bitter complaint to
Mrs Stiles, where he was boarding, in re-
gard 10 his poverty. "Oh, never mind, "

Gen. Arthurs father, Rev. William Arthur,

from the north of Ireland when very young

street Baptist church in Albany from 1875 to
1868, and died five years ago

Mrs. Garfield is a lady who will honor the
White House by her gentle presence. She
is woman of sweet aud winning spirit,
and of bright and cultivated mind. As Miss
Lucretia Rudolph she was an exceedingly

Sir Alexander Grant, in paper in the
Princeton Review on the education of wo-
men, observes "A witty bishop once said,
in reference to the old state of things, Our
girls are, no doubt, very badly educated, but
our boys will not find it out This saying
merrily indicates the truth that that which is
most charming and lovable in woman, as well
as that which is highest and greatest, is
something independent of accurate scholastic
or scientific training"

Garfield has been building new house
for himself at his Mentor co. farm from
plans almost entirely made by the rosy, moth
erly wife who has helped their boys fit for

Old Autumn thou art here! upon the earth
And in the heavens the signs Of death are hung;
For DER the earths brown breast stalks pale decay,
And 'mong the lowering clouds the wild winds wall
Aud sighug sadly shout the solemn dirge
Ger summers fairest flowers, all faded now
Tue winter god descending from the skies,
Has reached the mountain tops, and decked the
brows
With gtteting frosty crowns aud breathed his br6a
Among the trumpet pines, that herald forth
His coming.
Before the driving blast
Tue mountain oak bows down his hoary head,
And fngs his withered locks 10 the rough gales
That hercely roar among his branches bare,
Uplift.d TO the dark, IMPLYING heavens.
The skies have put their mourning garments
And hung their funeral drapery on the clouds
Dead nature soon will wear her shroud of snow,
And lie entnmbed in Winters icy grave.
Thus passes life. AS heavy age comes on,
The joys OF youth-bright beauties of the spring
Grow dim and faded and the long dark night
OF deaths chill winter comes. But as the Spring
Rebuilds the ruined wrecks Of Winters waste
And cheers the gloomy earth with joyous light,
So, DER the tomb the star Of hope shall rise
And usher in an everduring day.
