China supplied 81 per cent. of the
tea supply of the world in 1864, and
India 8 per cent. but in 1888 China
stood at 43 per cent. and India at 81
per cent. In 1921 the tea plant was
discovered growing wild in Assam, and
in 1884 the Indian government caused
experiments to be made by bringing
plants from China and cultivating
them. and it was not until 1854 that
tea plantations were opened up There
are now 100000 imported laboren
working !, 900 tea gardens in the prov
ince Of Assam.
There are four other places where
tea is raised, and the tea growing pos

Adoption of Textbooks for Orleans
County.

The Orleans County Board of Edu-
cation met at the Court House, New
port, on Friday and adopted the fol-
lowing books for use in the schools
during the ensuing five years: Writ
ing, Normal Review; drawing, In
dustrial Series; history, Barnes
Brief and Goodrich's Childs' history
grammar, Patterson's; geography,
Warren's; arithmetic, Greenleaf,
and Seaver & Walton's mental; ;
reading, Lippincott Civil Govern
ment, Mowry's (Vt. Edition) Man
ners and Morals, either Wiggin's or
Gorr's at the discretion of the teach
er. Voted that all the book houses
should take the books now held by
the agents in the towns at their
value; all books to be adopted on
condition that set be furnished free
for each teachers desk, and that
March l, 1891, to sbe the time given
in which to complete the exchange.
Hon. L. II. Thompson and Messrs.
Day and Putney elected a committee
in making purchasing contracts with
the publishers.

The New Rules.

They are the new rules in fact now,
having been adopted in the house of
representatives last week by strict
party vote of 161 to I45. There
were % members absent or
paired. Previous to the vote on the
adoption of the rules, motions to
strike out those clauses embodying
the most important changes were
voted down one after another, and
the code was finally accepted as re-
ported by the majority of the COM
mittee.
Speaker Reed has achieved victo-
~ so important in its probable effect
upon future legislation that it is not
to be looked upon as a personal tri-
umph. Such it is, however, and
wrought only by the GOODNESS, good
nature, firmness and invincible deter
mination of the speaker. The Te-
publican members of the house have
given him earnest and able support,
and the country is ripe for a com
mon sense construction of the con-
stitution, whereby legislators may
legislate and not simply vegetate
The adoption of the new rules is frs
a victory for the people, and, second
ly, a victory for Speaker Reed ant
his republican associates. The chang'
is radical, but it was urgently de
manded.

Bounty on Maple Sugar.

The Committee of House which is
busily at work on a new bill have OF
late been striving to adjust the sugar
duty, and finds itself confronted with
MANY obstacles. 1t is felt that free
sugar would generally cripple the
cane sugar industry of the south and
the sorgum industry Of the west, now
Just starting under the promise OF
great success. The duties removed,
sugar making in both districts would
be well nigh profitless and might
cease altogether. To overcome this
it is proposed to offer bounty on
sugar of so many cents pound for
all that is manufactured in the sec
tions named. Gen. Grout is before
I the committee looking after the ma
pie sugar industry of Vermont and
other sections, making the just claim
that sugar makers in these sections
are as much entitled to government
protection as in any other section.
He will doubtless press his point
with skill and persistence.

Choosing Listers.

In the first year of the existence
of the listing law of 1880 great care
was taken in the choice of listers.
Men of good judgment, painstaking
and faithful in the observance of the
spirit as well as the letter Of the law,
were generally chosen. AT that time
the revenue for state expenses was
raised by q direct tax. Later on
came the corporation tax law, which,
with the more economical scale of
expenditure that prevailed in the
early eighties, was nearly paying the
expense of conducting the state gov
ernment. The listing of property for
taxation became less a matter of state
and more a matter of local concern
and interest. 1t is apparent that in
many towns there has been, in the
last two or three years in particular,
a lowering of the standard of quail
fications of listers. Public sentiment
in this respect is not so active, so eX-
acting, as it has been, and, in con-
sequence, the public welfare has suf-
tered. Now that the state must again
have recourse to direct taxation, or
borrow money, which is only putting
off the day of payment, to pay cur
rent and extraordinary expenditures,
the listers of property for taxation
again becomes a matter of prime state
Importance, and for the performance
of this duty in strict accordance with
the terms of the act of 1880 the
towns should choose, on Tuesday
next, only men of the best and high
est qualifications. Furthermore, this
is the year for the quadrennial APP
praisal of real estate, and this fact
alone will dictate the election for list
ers eff men specially fitted for their
important duties. The voters should
bear the matter in mind, and give II
careful consideration before the day
of town meeting arrives. Delibera-
ton will conduce to wisdom in action.

Illinois, with $1,000 license, has "a
saloons or about one to each 800 of
population. Comptroller Onahan of
Chicago says: "High license does
not notably decrease the number of
saloons" There are in Chicago at
present about 1900 saloons, Of which
the Daily Neaos says, Certainly they
are plentiful enough. High license
does not decrease drunkenness, and
the question of increase of saloons
under it is only one of degree"
When the truth is all told high Ii
cense is only one form of liquor
'strust," and most powerful and
profitable form it is for the dealers.
No calamity could befall my native
state that | should esteem greater
than the repeal of her prohibitory
law and the adoption of high license.
Let the question seriously be ask
ed, why are the liquor dealers so
anxious to substitute high license for
prohibition? The little cloud on the
west side of the state may seem no
larger than a mans head, but it is
full of danger. Crafty politicians
and fat money bags are back of it..
Their sophistries are plausible, cal
culated to deceive the very elect, and
will be pushed with all the skill and
money possible.
Let Vermont be true to her glo-
rious history. When all else had
been driven back at Salem Heights
and the Sixth Corps was about to be
captured, they were Vermonters,
who, receiving the seven lines of
battle charging down upon them
stood hurled back the foe and saved
the day When Pickett's hosts swept
to the "high-water mark" of the re-
bellion, they were Vermonters who
charged upon his flank, and then
changing front rushed upon Perry
and Wilcox and sent them broker
and bleeding back to their lines. SC
now, when foe more to be dreaded
than armed rebellion threatens the
state. Let Vermonters stand, drC
from your mountains Of Hcing green
huE the qohisbey inUaderS from you
soil back to their Olcn licensed denS o
iniquity and blood!

Mr.. McClary on Sugar Making.

LII. McClary, the veteran sugar
buver, who has bought and sold 100
tons of sugar since last May, was re-
Gently West and has engaged to pur-
chase sugar the coming season for his
old customers. The trade is demand
inc better class of sugar and better
packages, and Mr.. McClary publish
es the following, which should be of
interest to all sugar-makers
During my recent visit to the West,
I have learned that there is a growing
disposition among the buyers of ma
pie sugar against soft: sour, and
burned sugar. The buyers of maple
sugar claim it is not right to buy SUI
gar that is burned, or sour and not
properly made, at the same price
at which others sell the best quality
and further, they do not want and
can not use this lower grade sugar, ,as
it is unmerchantable for the purposes
for which they want it, namely. melt
ing and making maple syrup. Buy
ers of maple sugar in the West insist
upon taking only well made, sound
sugar, free from the irregularities
mentioned, and maple sugar in new
/ clean tubs is the most desirable; su-
oar in tins is not so saleable as il
tubs. This season [ must refuse al
that is unmerchantable, except a
reduced prices. Farmers that make
first quality of maple sugar will ge
full market price for it, and the poor
er quality will have to be sold a
such, and the same grading that ap
plies to butter applies to sugar il
the purchase of the same.

John Jacob Astor died suddenly
of heart failure at his residence in
New York, Saturday, at the age Of
sixty-eight years. He was the eldest
son of the late William Astor, and
grandson of the original John Jacob
Astor, who founded the fortunes OF
the family. He was the head of the
third generation of the Astor family.
In 1915 his father died, leaving John
Jacob Astor two-thirds of his estate,
valued at 5000, 100000. During the
civil war Mr.. Astor set a good exam
pie to the men of wealth by going to
the front,where he served with credit
as aide-dd-camp to Gen. Mcclellan.
His wife died two years ago, and he
is succeeded by his only son, William
Waldorf Astor, who was minister to
Italy some years since. John Jacob
Astor, whose name was a synonym
of wealth, took none of his riches
with him. The good that he did with
his money was done while he was
alive, and his gifts were considerable.
