Guar Eldridge Jameson.

We are stricken with grief in the loss
by death on Monday, January 4, at
his home in Irasburgh, VT, of our
dear friend and valued contributor who
is named above. Mr.. Jameson was
man utterly without reproach in all the
relations of life-a sincere and practi-
cal Christian, faithful and loving hus-
band and father, an active, patriotic
citizen, true and generous friend. In
all these relations of life he stood an
example to all those who knew him.
He was one of those who, being sim
cerely religious, believed that call re-
ligion has relation to life," and that
d" the life of religion is to do good"
He always stood ready, without thought
of self, to aid and help in every good
cause. This was true in all his rela-
tionships, but it was pre-eminently true
in his relations to agriculture. Though
of slight and rather feeble frame, and
endowed with but moderate means, he
strove on his small farm to improve it
and himself together, and to spread by
pen and by speech knowledge of the
art and science of good husbandry. He
delighted to acquire this knowledge,
chiefly that he might communicate it
to others, and he became widely known
by the sound sense and practical
value of his writings. He assisted us
greatly in establishing the old Vermont
Farmer in the confidence and respect
of its large circle of readers, and when
our labors were transferred to the
WATCHMAN ne did not fail in his help.
His last communication to these col
umns appeared in the issue of Novem-
Der 18th. We saw him shortly before,
and he then seemed and felt better
than for year before, and there is
reason to believe that he might, though
feeble, have been long spared to his
friends and family had it not been for
an injury, received early in December
by fall on the ice, which injured his
spine anu TeSulJeu III NATURALIZATION
extending to the brain, of which he
died.
Mr.. Jameson, besides his home la
bors and his aid to the Vermont press
was widely known by his contributions
always acceptable, to the agricultural
journals of New York, Boston and
other cities. He was for many years
secretary of the Orleans County Ag
ricultural Society, member of the
State Board of Agriculture and an office
of his local and the State Grange-in al
of which positions he discharged hi
duties with the utmost faithfulnes
and with great ability. He was also
member of the Legislature in 1888
He leaves wife, a daughter and son
and to them an inheritance of far NOR
worth than riches-the record OF LII

The English Walnut.

Professor Budd of Iowa says, in Or
chdrd and Garden: "Allow me to add
to your excellent paper on Juglans
regia that it varies exceedingly in
hardness as found in various parts of
Europe and Asia. believe it may be
grown by proper selection of varie-
ties over large area of our country.
We found it in bearing at Saratov, on
the Volga, and in Central Russia at
Orel, Voronesh, Kiev, etc. Some nuts
1 brought home from plants which
stood forty-two degrees below zero
last winter. l could not see that the
varieties grown in Russia were inferior
in nut to the best seen in England and
France"

Thus the actual cash returns to farm
ers has been from three to eleven cents
more per pound by the cooperative
Cooley creamery than by any of the
other systems, and the farmer has had
none of the work to do.
1t seems to us that these statements
deserve the close and immediate at
tention of every intelligent cow-keeper
in New England, and especially in Yer
mont. Nothing is palmer than that it
is now worse than waste of time and
money to make up good milk and
cream into poor or medium butter.
The oleo and butterine factories stand
like savage giants with clubs in their
hands over the heads of all that class of
dairymen who have been supplying the
market with cheap butter. That market
has entirely passed into the possession
of the bogus butter-makers. We may
kick and squall like rebellious children,
and call bad names, but fate is too
strong for us; so down we must
go, unless we find and promptly take
some road to safety. The cooperative
creamery offers such road. There
seems to be no other, and now Fare
well, long farewell" to IRONY butter!

T. H. HoSKlNS, N. D., Editor,
Newport, Vermont.

THE absence of the agricultural edi-
tor from home during the holidays pre-
vented him from reading and correct
ing the proofs of his department. Few
errors occurred, however, the chief be-
ing the omission of proper or full
credits to some reprinted matter. We
always feel complimented when other
editors are so well pleased with our
writing as to wish to pass it off for their
own, but we are quite aware that this
feeling is not general among the fra
ternity, and we desire always to respect
the sensibiities of our brethren in this
particular.

There is no greater friend to the ed
itor than the reader who kindly informs
him of his mistakes. Therefore we
thank our friend, S. p. Miller of New
fame, VT, who writes that we were in
error in regard to bird legislation in
this state in recently stating that Yer
mont is still one of the states which
protects the English sparrow. AT the
last session Of our legislature it was en-
acted that " the word sparrow, in Sec
ton 1896 of the Revised Laws, relating
to the protection of birds, shall not be
construct to include English sparrows.
SAID sectlo' is also hereby amended by
striking out the word woodpecker ;
from the list /" birds protected" So
far as the latter amendment is con-
cerned, it goes too fai as none of the
woodpeckers are Harmful. except tbe
4" sap-sucker," which is stricSv NOT .
wood but bark "pecker."

THE high classical training now so
generally given to ministers of religion,
though it makes them thoroughly famil-
lar with all the old heather gods, requires
time which we cannot help wishing
might be shared by some more modern
subjects, and especially by agriculture.
We hold that every country minister
ought to have farm and be a farmer
When this was more commonly the
case, they were generally the leaders in
agricultural improvement, and they also
had more influence with their people
and stayed longer in place. Mission
aries to the heather find that they get
quicker and better hold upon those to
whom they are sent by instructing them
in worldly as well as spiritual things.
This reacts, too, upon the missionary,
and makes him broader man-more
healthful in body and soul. We believe
that unless the country clergy draw
nearer to the farmers they will find the
farmers drawing away from them. This
would be great misfortune to BOTH
Already we hear too much talk among
our agricultural neighbors, recalling
Cowper's quaint quartrain:
90 why are farmers made coarse,
Or clergy made so fine?

These articles, all made as fine as
possible, should be very carefully and
thoroughly mixed together upon a
smooth floor. Poor or damaged maple
sugar will do, or the cheapest brown
that can be had. If cotton-seed meal is
used, get the best decorticated. The
saltpeter, the sulphate of iron and the
salt should be well pulverized and
sifted, and the spices be pure, of the
best quality and finely ground. The
fenugreek Q@num Gr9cun,, Greek

to the clover family, the seeds of which
have strong, peculiar smell and an
oily, bitter taste, supposed to be tonic
and stimulant. The above-named mix
ture is to be given in small quantities
Ga handful or SOY, mixed with their
other feed, to horses and cattle out of
condition, without marked indication
of any disease. 1t is well to precede
the use of it by the administration of
brisk purgative. OF course a half, quar-
ter, or less quantity may be made,
being careful to observe the right pro-
portion of all the ingredients. Used
with Judgment and in moderation, it
is often very beneficial, but other means
of restoration should not be neglected.

average prices of butter during 1885 |
have been as follows, emitting fractions:


Northern Vermont farmers who sell
in the st. Adams market estimate that
it costs two cents per pound for pack
ages and marketing. They have thus
netted seventeen and one-half cents
per pound for their best selections and
thirteen cents for their poorer butter
during the past year, an average of
fifteen cents, and have done ali the
drudgery of butter-making. Contrast
this with the average net returns of
over twenty-four cents per pound OBJ
tanned by the patrons of well-managed
cooperative Cooley cream-gathering
factories, who haven't had to do any of
the work of butter-making or marketing.
1t is safe to estimate four cents per
pound as the cost of packages, delivery,
freight and commission of butter sold
in Boston and New York. The net
prices to farmers may therefore be thus
expressed:
