DIR. G. B. BULLARD of st. Johnsbury has
been giving the trustees of the village and
the telegraph company a good deal of
trouble recently. The story is that the
doctor at first consented to allow telegraph
poles to be erected in front of his premises
mind and proceeded to cut one of the poles
down. Then he changed his mind again
and desisted Again he concluded that he
would not have the wires strung, and a
man was put on the watch at night. The
man fell asleep, and while he slept two
wires were strung. In the morning the
doctor dug one pole up and chopped down
another. This shut off Geographic com
munication, and train was delayed forty
five minutes at Wells River in consequence.
The upshot of the affair was that Judge
Munson issued an injunction restraining
the doctor from further interference with
the poles and a suit for damages is talked of.

two Pireltone, and two citrus

Palermo, Sicily, and arrived in very
enfeebled condition, an attempt hay
ing been made to pack box with
ten trees, in which not less
than fifty should have been packed,
loose earth having been thrown over
the roots, with nothing to keep it In
place; the result being that the earth
was spread all over the bottom OF the
box, five feet long and fifteen inches
wide, leaving the roots OF the trees bare.
He only saved four trees and few buds,
which are doing well-the buds espe-
cially.
On October 80, 1890, he received fifteen
citron trees from Catania, Sicily. Va
rieties: Eight Cedro Vara, three Tesla
de Turco, two PiIeltone and two Limon-
zania, which had been budded on old
stock, and from some cause had very
poor roots; in fact, Mr.. Kimball says he
never before planted trees which had 30
poor chance to live. OF these he saved
seven.
None of these varieties have been
described with any degree of accuracy,
and their value can only be determined
by growing the fruit and preparing the
product for market, which Mr. Kimball
hopes to do. Mr.. Kimbali says:
From good deal of correspondence
with Prof. H. E. Van Deman, pomolog-
list department of agriculture, as well as
with American consuls in the Medi-
terranean country, / am satisfied there
is mine of wealth in the growing OF
the citron. To Prof. HI. E. Van Deman

extent not at present conceived pt. l

quickly adapted itself to our conditions,
nor one which exhibits such robust
character. The foliage is beautiful, the
growing shoots being of reddish-pur-
pie color, and very rich; the ripened

nor yet 30 light as the lemon they are
verv fragrant. The flowers are very
similar to the lemon, but have the ira
GRANGE of the orange. hope to see
every family in Southern California
growing their own 'citron'."
Mr.. Kimball, in supplemental note,
says: II have no hesitation in saying
that from all can learn the citron will
pay an enormous profit, as the fruit may
be kept many months after 1t is picked,
and may be processed by any one who
can prepare preserves of any kind.
Among the varieties there are some
which bear fruit weighing six to eight
pounds, and the price in Sicily seldom
falls below cents per pound when
