EAST BARNET.

EAST BARNET.
One of the worst storms came Sun
day, that we have had this winter,
driving the snow into buildings much
worse than common. One man de-
clared that as much as half a bushel
came in through the keyhole of the
door.
Those who were looking for an early
sugaring have given that up, and are
new prophesying a scarcity of hay,
and late spring.
Owing to the scarcity of hay, some
few farmers are beginning to think
silo would be a help. G. H. Kings
bury has fed ensilage two years and
would not do without silo, or D. B.
Wooster Perfection creamery, for
which he is agent.

The Syndicate Organized.
A Very Important Omission.

The Burlington Free Press, which is
it's former editor, now a resident of

The above item is good and strong
as far as it goes, but it wholly Omits
an important fact in this syndicate
movement, namely, that this new COM
pany which starts out with such
flourish of "names" and powerful
financial and political and social back

bury by repudiating their written CEN
tract with The CaledOnian and break
ing their most solemn obligations. This
striking chapter in the history Of this
concern is entirely ignored in any of

Alexander Shields-whose death was
noticed in The Caledoniau two weeks
ago-was born in Scotland, July 9th,
1913. When he was nine years old
the family all came to Vermont, set
Ting in Glover. On part of their first
settlement the deceased lived until
thirteen years ago he sold out, moving
to Peacham, near West Barnet, where
Feb. "a he died. All winter, as once
before, he suffered severely from alb
scesses on the lungs, which caused his
death. A post norton examination
revealed Il condition of the lungs, heart
and liver, that could have been accom-
panied only by great pain during years
of suffering; yet till few months ago
he had kept busy about the farm and
was cheerful and hopeful to the last,
being about the house until n few hours
before his death. Very early in life he
united with the Reformed Presbyte-
rian church, being ever an hOnored
member. The first sacrament of the
Lords Supper that he had missed at
tending since this time was that of
January last He read much but was
a man of few words, though when ask
ed for advice his counsel was wise.
His death leaves in his family sad
blank never to be filled in the church

be useful outside his farm, also that
much may be accomplished by Chris
tan industry, temperance in its broad
sense, and will power. Mr.. Shields was
never a robust or iron-sinewed man,
he had little money and only small
farm to start upon, yet he made farm
