CADY'S FALLS.

Romina Fairbanks leads off as usual in a
general invitation sugar festival. A large
party responded last Monday evening to
his generous invite, and report sweet
and happy time.
The sugar season may be said to have
fairly commenced, when the impecunious
farmer vends his short weight cans of
diluted syrup, which, to give character
to the fluid, he calls maple honey. We
have invested and know what we are
talking about. The sample on hand re-
sembles, somewhat, in flavor. the last of
last years make, diluted with hot sap,
and by the color might be mistaken for
the fluid used in soap making.
If the editor, like his correspondent,
should make Sunday after meeting visit
to some liberal farmer, about the size
of Judge Smith. he might have occasion
to be profuse in his thanks and compli-
ments at this particular time of year.
The Judge furnished snow and sugar, the
| latter pure, clear and transparent; near
ly as white as the snow itself. Also a
can of the pure extract Of maple juice,
jrs. to please the children. Such gener-
osity brings its own reward.
The town Grand Juror at Cady's Falls,
was interviewed last Monday by one OF
the innocents from Centreville, with the
complaint that Dick, the pugilst, had
battered his not altogether lovely coun-
tenance the Saturday before while quiet
ly rusticating at Abe Noes. Said Grand
Juror, not feeling competent to handle
so aggravated case, directed complain
ant to cite his grievance to his honor,
Hiram Stafford, contemporary to whom
by courtesy belongs the jurisdiction
of Morrisville, and if equal justice were
done we opine that this pair of worthless
should both be sentenced to term III
the Rutland institution, where temper
ance and NOR atty becomes a necessity.

village district was held at the Acad-
envy on Tuesday evening of this
week. P. X. Gleed was chosen
Moderator and A. A. Niles, Clerk.
The reports of the Auditors and Pru-

gratifying and pleasing information
that the Academy building is paid for,
the district out of debt and assets
amounting to s43S.01 on hand, which
means material lessening of the tax
for the year to come. The tax voted
is 40 cents on a dollar of the grand
list, to be paid July LIST, with dis
count of 5 cents on a dollar of the
grand list, if paid on or before Oct.

Letter from Kansas.

WAKEFIELD, Kan, March 20, $50.
Editors Neaos and Citizen:
We are having as fine weather here
now as you do in Vermont the middle OF
May. The thermometer stands at 20 and
S0 degrees through che day, and the eve
nings are just delightful-wth a full
moon. The ground is dry and the roads
are as hard as they ever are in the sum-
mer. Farmers are as busy as possible
getting in their winter oats. The oats
are sowed broadcast on the old stubble
and then plowed in to the depth of from
two to four inches, after which a smooth
ing harrow is run over the ground. Win
ter wheat had hard time of it this last
winter, and it looks rather sickly in a
great many places, but it is rather early
to tell how it will be for a crop. There
has been an immense quantity of corn
husked this month that was caught out
through the winter. They husk and
send directly to market from the field.
One purchaser bought as high as 5000
bushels in one day last week, which was
taken in from the country near Wakefield.
The price now ranges from Is to % cents,
according to the grade. Business seems
to be quite brisk around this section this
spring. There is drug store, imple-
ment store, bank and several dwellings
in process of construction in Wakefield.
Hog cholera has ragged to considerable
extent near here this spring, one man
losing go, and several other parties near
ly as many. Geese, ducks, cranes and
other migratory birds, are seen flying
northward at most all times of day in
large fiocks, and the sportsman's gun
is heard necessarily. Trees are com
mencing to bud, and frogs make the night
resound with their croaking. Mr.. Henry
Avery has just returned from Illinois
with six fine imported French Norman
Stations. He has the most horses of
that breed, of any man in Kansas. He
recently sold his best stallion, ''Nyanza,"
to parties south of here for So, 270.
Well, will close this letter by enclos-
ing $l.5O. for which please mail me the
Ne,os and Citizen for one year. 1 want
to know what is going on back in La
noble county. Respectfully,
w. A. DEMERITT.
