Orleans County Fair.

The first annual fair of the Orleans
County Fair Association was held
at Roaring Brook Park, Barton,
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday,
Sept. Both, and Oct 1st and End:
The weather was simply perfect ana
| furthered the plans of officers OF the
Association, Of which Hon Henry
| c. Cleveland of Coventry, is Presi-
dent, and John |. Parker, Coventry,
| Secretary. The industrial exhibit
was very small this year but the
fancy work and paintings there were
of IA good class. In the agricultural
department there was the usual DIS
play of cabbages, pumpkins, squash
es, etc. The most important III tllls
line was W. d. Tyler's exhibit OF
twenty-four different varieties OF ap-
pies. In the mechanical department
! A. r. COwles', Barton, exhibit OF
pianos and organs was not in the
SEWN " but far beyond. In tact MS
exhibit of music and musical lnstru-
ments was the leading feature OF the
Floral Hall. He showed two elegant
Mathuehek pianos; a seven octave
Wheelock organ and two Wilcox q
White organs, besides the Domestic
and New Home sewing machines. a.
L. Bailey had a small exhibit OF two
pianos and two organs. and Mr..
Cass showed three Instruments. The
White, and Wheeler and Wilson sew
ing machine companies had good eX-
hibits; also, too, the Davis churn
and Cooley creamers.
The farmers were very busy i'm
proving the fine weather and but
little stock was shown. B. c. How
ard of Applegrove, Canada, was
there with his mammoth sheep, Peter,
the largest sheep in the world, weigh
ing 521 lbs He was of the Leicester
breed, and his wooLWas about three
inches long. The horse show and
races were exceptionally fine, sur
passing anything of the kind ever
held in the County before. Burbank
& Williams of Coventry, showed one
black mare and six of her children
raised in seven years, OF a quality
that would be hard to equal, much
less to exceed-by one mare. The
track was in a splendid condition
and all the races came off as adver
tised.

Report of Inspector of Finance.

The report of l.. O. Greene, YER
mont's state Inspector of finance,
shows the number of depositors in
the savings banks and trust COM
panies of the state to be 65,749, an
increase in number of 1000 over
1889. OF the depositors 1913 are
residents of Vermont, and these have
deposited the sum of SIC, 266,S45.-
OF, an increase during the year of
81, 1886, 49O.59, an indication that
prosperity still abounds among the
hills and wales of the Green Noun
tains. The average of each deposit
tor is 1898 26, an increase of $5.72,
and the average per capita is $5S.2 %.
1t is worthy of note, that the amount
deposited in the banks shows a gain
of 81 ,579, 236.S7, a larger amount
than in any previous year, except
1881, and 1882. There has been a
falling off in western loan invest
ments, and the inspector thinks the
traze of sending money away from
home has reached its climax. The
entire report is replete with interest,
and contains many valuable sugges-
tions, some of which will undoubt-
edly lead to wise legislation.

Taxation of Savings Bank Deposits

Taxation of Savings Bank Deposits
The Inspector of Finance in the re-
port says: The taxation of deposits
and accumulations in savings banks
is a question regarding which there
is a diversity of opinion and bienni-
ally much discussion. 1t is urged by
some that this money should be put
into the list and taxed like other
money, or at least that it's contribu-
ton should more nearly approach
the average tax and be fixed say at
one per cent Careful investigation
will satisfy anyone, | think, that the
savings banks cannot pay larger
| tax than they now do and earn divi-
dends that will compare not unfavOr-
| ably with the earnings of other money
placed at interest. If there was any
method by which the truth could be
ascertained, it would be found that
money in savings banks pays its due
proportion of taxation with all other
property, including all exemptions,
and the very large amount invested
in one way and another and hidden
| beyond the discovery of the listers
| But however that may be, here is no
Justice in a proposition to tax to the
utmost the meagre savings of child
rem, women and laboring men while
the family carriage, household sup
plies and furniture to the value of
$500 of the capitalist escapes en-
tirely. 1t is estimated that one
thousand millions of property in
Massachusetts escapes Just taxation
| through defects in the laws and their
execution, but there is no device by
which the savings of the poor deposit
tor can escape.
The belief that the banks are used
to some extent as repositories for
avoiding taxation is not well found
ed. Comparison was made of the de-
posits and Withdrawals before and
after the first of April, 1899, in all the
banks, and the result showed that
the changes were no greater than the
average from month to month
through the year, OF if in any case
there was a marked change, it was
accounted for by local causes entirely
distinct from any attempt to avoid
taxation. The banks are trying con-
scientiOusly to fill the place for which
they were created and do not encOur-
age tax dodgers. On the contrary,
they refuse deposits that have a sus-
piciouslook and do not accept money
from people who are able to invest for
themselves. 1t is an open question
whether the State has not lost con-
siderable money from taxation by re-
ducing from $4,000 to 81, 500 the
amount on which dividends may be
paid. There is little likelihood that
the excess withdrawn ever finds it's
way into the tax list

With the Mckinley bill law, the
annual imports of about $25, 0O0,-
900 of agricultural products will be
supplied to the people of the United
States by the American farmer rath-
er than by the Canadian farmer
and in the words Of Major Mckinley,
the father of the bill bearing his
name, "wko will say that S25, 0OO,-
600 of additional demand for Amer
lean agricultural products will not
inure to the benefit of the American
farmer? And that S25, 100000 dis
tributed among our farmers will not
relieve some of the depression now
prevailing, and give to the farmer
confidence and increased ability to
lift the mortgages from his lands?"
In contrast with the above prom
ises which have been redeemed by a
Republican Congress, it should be
borne in mind that the Mills bill,
which passed a Democratic House
and was prevented from becoming a
law only by a Republican Senate,
placed sixteen of the important pro-
duets of the farm on the free list.

A More Hopeful Outlook for the
Farmers

The passage of the Mckinley bill
must result in great benefit to the
farmers, who certainly need relief at
this time, as well as to every other
interest in the country.
The enormous importations of
foreign farm products, especially
from Canada, have been the
source of severe competition for
farmers in the United States !;
and the agricultural schedule of
the Mckinley bill was framed to stop
these excessive importations.
The following are the importations
of foreign farm products IN the case
of nine important products, for the
veal. $500

Artificial Ice,

Ice made by these machines is the

from steam, which is poured into large
galvanized cans These cans are set in
a brine bath chilled far below freezing
point by coils Of pipes. through which
Rnhydro0s anmoniacal gas is forced by
powerful pumps. The water in the cans
is CONCEALED into ice by the same power,
cold, that converts the water of a creek,
lake or pond into a frigid substance.

itself in freezing. but it is true to very
limited extent. No cold. no matter how
