Do you ask, " Where can | do this and
have my money absolutely safe ?" Let
us give you some facts. The Lamoille
County Savings Bank and Trust Co. of
| Hyde Park is an institution run on the
following principles =
1st. Not dollar is loaned without
the personal knowledge of some one of
the Board of Directors that the loan is
safe beyond question.
| I'd. 1t is run as home institution
Every dollar is loaned in Lamoille and
adjacent counties. and every worthy en-
terprise in the vicinity of the towns
whence the deposits of the Bank come,
is fostered and encouraged in preference
to other investments, so far as it can be
done with absolute safety.
Sd. Under no circumstances is a dol
lar invested in any western mortgage or
other Out-of-the-State security. We
might perhaps pay our depositors one
half of one per cent. per annum more
interest by mourning little additional
risk, if no loss should come; but we
believe there is to-day ''long felt
want" in Vermont for savings institu-
ton which will loan it's funds at home
1t is needed that Vermont may not
become impoverished. 1t is needed for
the building up and fostering home in
situations. Vermont towns will not
boom without money any more than
towns beyond the Mississippi and in
Alabama. 1t is needed for the greater
safety of the savings of widows and Or
phans as well as of all those who look
rather to the absolute security of the
principal than to high rates of interest.
With no disparagementt to our neighbor
who prefer to occupy western fields we
offer to the depositing public the La
noble County Savings Bank and Trust
Co. as an institution organized to meet
the demand for a strictly home Investment
Savings Bank. That such a demand ex-
lists, and that the people are ready to be-
stow their confidence and encourage
ment upon such an institution, is evil
denced by the fact that the aggregate of
the small deposits alone in this bank
not counting any in excess of $1,000
were at the end of the first six months
of its business. S57, 1860, a record
without parallel, we believe, in the
history of Vermont Savings Banks.
4th. Under no circumstances does
this Bank take over 6per cent. 1t would
not, knowingly, make an Investment
which would pay over per cent. The
safest class of loans and securities will
command money at per cent. The
Bank pays the State tax of six-tenths
of per cent. on deposits in lieu of all
taxes to the depositors. 1t must then be
evident that 4 per cent. per annum is all
that the Bank can SAFELY PAY. This
rate it will pay. 1t is guaranteed and
rests on no contingency. Interest will
be compounded semi-annually if not
withdrawn.

The Pekin Duck.

The Pekin is the favorite duck of Mr..
James Rankin, whose success in ar tiff
cial duck culture is well known not only
in Massachusetts, but throughout the
United States He says on the subject
of Pekin ducks, in his manual on duck
culture: l have experimental carefully

first eggs of the season, as this will ena-
bic you to get your young birds on the
market when they will command the
highest prices. Another advantage OF
the Pekin is their pure white elastic
feathers, which are largely mixed with
down. These feathers are no mean
source of income.

When to Cut Timber.

The best time to cut timber is when
the tree is filed with the gum and oil
that have formed after the sap has ceased
flowing and when the natural forces of
the tree ara at rest. This term may be
said to be between the LIST of September
and the 1st of February, according to
climate and locality. December and
January are favorite months in many
sections. Trees when felled in the win
ter have less sap to be evaporated by
seasoning, whether used for lumber or
FIRE wood, and are sooner brought into
the right condition for use. For dura-
bility timber should have sufficient age,
and its strength as well as its lasting
qualities depend not only on its matur-
ity, but also on the part of the tree from
which it is taken. The least durable
and the weakest part of tree is the sap
wood next the bark. Young trees have
an excess of sap wood, and timber from
such viii not be as durable, especially in
exposed positions, as the wood of mature
trees. The strength of wood is much in
creased by the process of seasoning.
While this is going on wrapping should
be guarded against; otherwise its value
for most purposes will be greatly i'm

Arab attendants two robes not unlike
those used for American TAPESTRIES,
and these we obtained. AS we were to

man had a man familiar with the river
wade through and across to show the
depth and the swiftness of the stream,
and the most appropriate place for the
ceremony. Then read from the Bible
the accounts of baptisms in that sacred
stream, and implored the presence of
the Christ on whose head the dove de-
scended at the Jordan. Then, as the
candidate and myself stepped into the
waters, the people on the banks sang in
full and resounding voice:
On Jordan's stormy banks stand,
And cast a wishful eye
To Canaan's fair and happy land,
Where my possessions lie
Oh the transporting, rapturous scene
That rises to my sight,
Sweet fields arrayed in living green
And rivers of delight.

middle of the river. As the candidate
sank under the floods and rose again
under a baptism in the name of the

A Simple Tool by Which Fields May Be

Field or Piece If Ground.

chine constructed some twenty years ago
for the rapid measuring of fields which
Country Gentleman claims has advan-
tage over the surveyors chain and tape
line in that it is always used by one
person. The spokes of the wheel are a
little larger than common lath. These
spokes form a wheel of such size that
one revolution measures exactly one rod.
This will be effected if each one is thirty
two and one-half inches long. The hub
is made of two circular pieces of inch
board screwed face to face at the hub,
tapering to an inch or less at the point.
Sometimes wagon wheel has been used,
but it is too heavy, and the jerks which
its weight causes make it inaccurate.
On smooth surface it has been found
that the measuring of this wheel did not
vary more than half an inch in rod,
and ON grass land not over an inch in a
rod. A common carpenter made the
machine.

Do Rees Work or Only Gather Homer W

Do Bees Work or Only Gather Honey?
A j. Root, authority ON all bee matters,
gives this answer to the question so often
asked, do bees make honey, or do they
only gather it, In other words, do
they add to, take from or change over
nectar as they get it from the flowers?
think we may safely say that there is
practically no difference or no change.
There are some scientists and professors
who insist that the bees do change the
nectar in carrying it from the flowers to
the hives enough so that it can be de-
tected by the chemist. In order to get
unfinished sections filed up at the end
of the season we have fed to the bees
different kinds of honey; but after being
sealed up in the comb it was exactly the
same honey to all appearances.
By accident we scorched one lot lit
tie, and hoped that the bees in their
manipulation might remove the slightly
burnt taste They did not, however,
change it a particle. Again, we once
had lot of honey that candied so read
lily that we could scarcely keep it in
liquid form at all. We melted it, added
: some water, and fed it to the bees. They
evaporated the water added, placed
it in their combs and sealed it up, but it
candied after being sealed up in the
combs just as it did before we fed it to
them, and | have never been able to de-
tect that they improved poor honey in
any way. neither have been able to de-
tect that any injury was done: or, in
fact, that any change perceptible to any
of our senses was wrought by any of
their manipulations.

English breeders have for some years

this variety of pig is unequaled for the
production of lean meat While the
Tamworth hogs produce good saleable
bacon, other pure breeds, taking them
collectively, produce too much fat for
