MIR EDITOR:-Owing to the prevalence
of diphtheria to an alarming degree in GER
tain localities in the county, | have thought
it eXpedient to call the attention of the
municipal authorities in the several towns
and villages in the county and of the citi-
zens of the county in general to the fact
and earnestly urge that such precautionary
steps be taken in regard to strict observa-
tion of sanitary measures such as the re-
moval of all solid or liquid refuse matter
about the home and premises, tree use of
disinfectants &C., as will restrict an arrest
the extension of this disease. To this end
would call attention tie AN extract from an
article full Of valuable suggestions by Dr.
Chancellor, Secretary of the State Board of
Health, which if strictly observed and CIR
ried out will materially aid in suppressiug
the dread disease, j. IL. LAMAR,
County Health Officer.
CLEANLINESS \ REQUISITE.
The poison of measles, scarlet fever,
diphtheria, typhoid fever, &c, is prOba bly,
never wholly extinct in any community
where these diseases have once prevailed,
UuJ bnelF eplutnlc pTeNaItEc" only occurs
in uncertain cycles when the surroundings
are favorable for their spread. Such con
ditlOns We must diligently avoid, and of all
the means of doing so, cleanliness has been
found to be the most direct and trustworthy.
People who live in the country or small
towns fancy they are exempt from the un
healthy condition. This is great mistake.
The refuse products of a single family ne
elected for few weeks or months will al
most certainly breed mischief, and if ne
elected for a long period will render The
prem Uses foul the worst spot of
crowded city. \ tainted atmOsph re may
be SO poisonous that q very little introduced
INTO bedroom, so little as to be quite i'm
perceptible To the nose, may give typht id
fever, diphtheria or scarlet fever to a person
sleeping there We do not content ourselves
with excluding the great majority of sparks
from powder magaZine-we do our best
that no one shall enter. 81 our endeavor
must he that no tainted air shall exist
around or in our dwellings Nothing per-
fectly clean can cont .iu germ of disease.
Although perfect cleanliness may be an
unaGtalnabe ideal. still it is an ideal after
which we should strive. Pure air, clean
water, rapid removal of all refuse or foul
matters are the great desiderata for
healthy home.

BACK FROM SOUTH AMERICA.

The disastrous state of the Buenos
Ayres market has caused the return
to Middlebury of several of the fam
Gus horses taken there from this region.
The first to return was Mr.. Darwin Ri
der's noted black stallion, Mambrno Ar
chy (2:24i), son of Mambrino Boy, and
out of a daughter of the famous John
billiard. Archy had an unfortunate eX-
perience, being five months on his trip.
detained 10 days in a lighter under the
sun of the the equator and having suffer-
ed from a severe attack of dlstemper on
his arrival at Buenos Ayres. As re-
suit Mr.. Rider was able to trade for him
on advantageous terms and bring him
back to Mddlebury. This excelleet
horse has now regained his former vigor
and is showing higher speed than ever
before. He will probably be in the stud
in this region next season.
Mr.. Page q. Potter has brought back
Addison Lambert (2:273), one of the
best sons of Daniel Lambert, and full
brother to Ben Franklin, long first among
the sres of stake-wnners in the North.
Although Addison Lambert has never
rivalled his great brothers success as a
sire of trotters, he has several winners
TO his credit and stands among the first
of Vermont's sires of superb roadsters.
His many former patrons will give him
a hearty welcome anew to the list of
sires that have always given money and
credit to the breeders of first-class YER
mont horses.
Mr.. II. c. Potter has brought back the
beautiful bay mare Tempest (fve-year-
old record 2:l9). She is daughter of
Hawthorne, son Of Nutwood, and hel
present high form and perfect action in
dictate that she has high honors yet to
achieve on the trotting turf, with pros
pect of record among the fastest. She
is now eight years old and will be heard
from next season.

LEE, 2:2O.

The history of the breeding of Lee,
2: 20, is as follows: Jesse ID. Carr of Sa-
linas City, Monterey county, had in the
same stable with Carr's Mambrino a
large brown horse called General Lee, by
Geo. NJ. Patchen, Jr., 81, out of a mare
called Sister by that grand old horse
Gen. Lee. Geo. Thierkauf, young man
living near Salinas, one day found small
roam mare in his pasture which looked
like mustang. He advertised her and
never could find any one who would take
her; she was finally sold by the sheriff
according to law, and Mr.. Thierkauf
bought her. Noticing she could trot
pretty well, he resolved to breed her to
Carr's Mambrino. He brought her to
the large stable, but was disappointed in
his errand, for the old horse was away.
The groom then told him to breed to
General Lee, as he was going to send
him to to the ranch at Modoc Mr.. Thier-

WAxY. GRANDAM OF SUNOL.
JOSEPH BATTELL,
Middlebury, VT.

In an article published in the Middle
bury REGISTER, May Il, 1889, under the
head of "Waxy, Grandam of Sunol, 2:1S,"
we said:
sin connection with the excellent arti-
Gle of Hark Comstock's in last weeks
REGISTER on Thoroughbred Blood in
the Trotter' was a note stating that since
the article was written it had been fully
established that WaXy was thoroughbred
and full sister to Annette by LeXirg-
ton. This note was signed: Editor. and
referred to editor of Turf, Field and
Farm, from which above article was cop
Jed, and means, if it means anything,
that it was fully established to the salts
faction of that editor, who is perhaps
about as well qualified to Judge of ped-
gree as of stations.
"We make this explanation because we
do not want to be considered as saving
that the pedigree of WaXy is fully estab-
lished. One thing, and perhaps only one
thing, seems to be evident in regard to
her pedigree, and that is that when she
was sold in California it was not estab-
lished. She was sold as by Lexington,
but no dam was given. The suggestion
of this is that the Lexington part of it
was a fraud. which, if the dam was
given, would be exposed. She may have
been by Swigerts Lexington out of a
dam that was practically unknown. This
supposition would explain the conditions
under which she was sold, and other
known facts, it seems to US, perhaps,
better than any other
Since we wrote the above the fallacy
of the establishing of the pedigree OF
this mare has been proven. In this mat
ter Mr.. Wallaces ability rose superior t(
the perception of all his critics. 1t Is now
evident to all that the pedigree of Waxy
is unknown, although she might be fair
ly entered as said to be by horse oalec
Lexington. We still think she was by
Swgert's Lexington.

card on Wednesday, and the largest
crowd of the season took a sun bath. 1t
was hot and sticky, but people got their
moneys worth, for the quartette made a
great race. 1t was hard for the talent TO
pick winner. Before the start sample

Present Sl4, and oceans of money went
INTO the box at those figures. The race
itself was great One-one of the best of
the year, and every heat but one was AS
hot and close a contest as could be asked
for. Hanson drew the pole, but had to
relinquish it to Dynamite around the
turn up the back side Hanson drew up,
and he and the black trotter went head
and head to the turn, where Hanson
broke, losing his chance. Swinging into
