Burlington GobbIes the State Fair.

! meeting of the directors of tine
State Agricultural Society was held in
Burlington Tuesday evening TO con.
slider a proposition Cor ''lnutual har-
mony" with the Burlington organiza-
ton lately started. Tho Free Press
gives the following particulars Of the
meeting aud It's result:
"There were present President Chase
and Directors Merrill. Stafford, Ham
mond, Kent. IIolyoke, Cramton, North,
Clark, Shedd and Drew. Before TAX
ing action they received a committee OF
the corporators of the Champlain Val
ley Association consisting of Messrs.
II. Spencer, #. NJ. Van Sickien, a. G..
Pierce. VIC. Shaw I-nJLGh.Nl
the articles of association, which, with
the views and purposes of the new or
ganiZation, were duly explained in IL
frank and free conference. Tho com.
mittee then retired. The board of the
state society. after full discussion,
unanimously accepted and adopted the
report Of their committee; voted 10
take $l2,500 in the stock Of the Cham
plain Valley Association; and placed
their subscription for five hundred
shares OF the stock on the books of the
latter. BY this action the statc society
becomes n member Of the Champlain
Valley Association, and an owner of
one-half its stock. The union of inter-
ests thus ensured will, we are confident,
be for the mutual advantage of the two
societies. IL is understood that the
State Fair will be held here this fall in
conjunction with and on the grounds of
the Champlain Valley Association, and
that the state society will have its home
here, and holds its fairs here, whenever
the interests of the state and OF the So
ciety do lot make it advisable for it to
hold them elsewhere. When the State
Fair goes elsewhere the Champlain
Valley Association will hold its annual
fair by itself, but with the friendly aid,
Instead of the opposition, of the state
society. The %Champlain Valley Asso-
citation, on its part, secures the co.opera-
ton of an old, established and success
full organization, and calls Ia its aid the
services of the men who have the most
experience and the best capacity in the
management of agricultural exhibitions.
Each organization will maintain its
identity, and the two, working in har-
mony, will be able to hold more sue
cessful fairs than have hitherto been
held. and TO accomplish more for the
promotion of the great interests for
which the societies exist than any soci.
ETY. has been able to accomplish in this
state"

Taking everything into consldera-
ton, there is nothing better than barn
manure for growing crops; but phos-
pilates do an important work for the
farmer In giving his crops all early
start, while his barn manure manures
them. Large crops are also grown on
Bowker's Phosphates alone, which of
tentimes gives better results than barn
manure
Mr.. b. e. Latham, of South Royal
ton, Vt. says
81 procured Bowker's Hill and Drill
Phosphate, guaho, wheat. bran, and
two other phosphates, and used them
side by side, and the result was that
the Bowker Hill and Drill was clear
ahead of all the others from first to
last"

Opium Eater, he first uses the crug In email

The habits OF Opium Eating and Liquor Drinking
are precisely what eating is TO Alimentiyeness, as

One afternoon, last week. there was

and the team drew slightly ahead, but
Leander broke and .Sw weller lead with

covered their strobe, and moved up

The number ot horses at present in

which number 100 600 are owned in
Illinois, which has most of any state,
and Texas 1926 Within the past
few wears quite an export trade in
American horses has sprung up, the
-.i","ls SVi"g Unirn} ~ Englauu anu
France. On one OF the tram-way lines
in London, several tho1slnd American
horses are employed, they being better
adapted for the purpose than either
English or French animals. During
the year, 1922 American horses were
exported, the average price being Sl64,
and during tho previous six months,
5000 horses were shipped abroad. The
French government is at present pur-
chasing American horses for the caval-
ry service, and it is expected that some
five thousand will DO bought. The
agents of the government who are at
present in this country are paying from
$50 to 1925 for horses of one thousand
pounds weight and fifteen and one-half
hands high. The raising of horses re-
quires long experience and good judg-
ment, but when properly conducted
can be made very lucrative. The de-
ihand is not likely to diminish, as the
opening up OF western and southern
sections OF the country will create All
increase of business, especially for do
sirable New England stock.
