Creamery Injunction Granted

The grit of the Vermont Farm Ma
chine Co., in protecting it's patents in
court has passed into a prOverb.
That this company has lost none of
it's vigor in this regard has been made
apparent within a few days to the
Barden Automatic Cream Separator
Co., of Middle Granville, N. Y. The
latter company were manufacturing
a cabinet creamery, the valuable fea-
lures of which were infringements of
patents belonging to the Vermont
Farm Machine Co. That company
urged the Barden company through
correspondence to desist appropriate
ing the valuable features belonging
to them, which were the most desir-
able features in the Barden appa-
ratus. The Barden Company gave
frivolous excuses, apparently for the
purpose of delay, until it became nee
essary for the Vermont Farm Machine
Co. to bring suit against the purchas-
ers of the Barden Creameries.
Suits were brought for the infringe
ment of two patents and motion
made for provisional Injunction for
the infringement of the first claim of
VIM. Cooley's patent which covers
the process of water sealing. The
Barden Company produced an array
of old patents as alleged anticipation
of the Cooley patent but Judge Wheel
er of the United States Circuit Court
for the district of Vermont has held
the Cooley claim valid and granted
the Injunction asked for against the
continuance of theinfringement. Tes-
timony for the Infringement of the
second, or Butler, patent is not com
pleted and that case is still pending
before Judge Wheeler.
In this connection many of our
readers will remember the suit so long
pending in Northern Vermont between
| the Vermont Farm Machine Co. and
D. B. Wooster a farmer residing in
Marshfield. Mr.. Wooster was tena.
cious ami fought desperately, the tes
timony covering one thousand pages
| Appeals were made from one court tic
another until it finally reached the
United States Supreme Court where
Judgment was given in favor of the
Vermont Farm Machine Co. with
costs. Mr.. Wooster was the posses
sor of a good farm when he began
but at the end theft had been useC
up and he is still unable to satisfy
the execution issued by thecourt into
several thousand dollars.

The Number of Indians,

One of the most curious and wide
spread of all popular decisions is that
which relates to the supposed steady
determination of the Indians of
North America before the march of
civilization. 1t was an officer of the
bureau of ethnology at Washington
who made this remark. GAS a mat
ter of fact, he added, " the Indians
are probably more numerous on this
continent to-day than they have ev-
er been in the past, and they are
steadily increasing in numbers from
year to year. There are now in the
United States 265, 900 Indians. When
Columbus landed they were almost
undoubtedly of less number. The
Indians of the time lived altogether
by the chase. Under such conditions
an enormous extent of territory is
necessary to supply a tribe with
food. Each tribe, as things were
then, ranged over "a great eXpans6
appropriated to it's own use in the
pursuit of game and fish. Between
one tribes hunting ground and that
of another was always an extensive
! dividing strip. The whole country
mapped out in this way could not
sustain more than small popula
ton. There is the best possible rea
son for believing that two centuries
and a half ago, in what is now the
United States east of the Mississippi
the Indians did not altogether ex
coed 100000.

During the nine months ending
March 81, 1890, there arrived in the
United States 254 ,203 immigrants.
In the corresponding period ending
with March of this year the import
ations were 316227 persons. A
comparison for three months up to
the same date shows an increase
from "a, 1000 to $4,000, and for the
month of March alone a jump from
35, 900 to $4,000. 1t thus appears
that not only has immigration in
creased as compared with previous
years, but the ratio of increase has
grown month by month. The gain
for March, 1891, over March, 1890
is startling, amounting to so pei
cent. 1t proves that existing laws
and administration, instead of re.
stricting immigration, are enlarging

FARM FOR Sale !

Owing to the advancing years of
my father, l have purchased the
farm owned by him for many years
past, near Hyde Park village. Hav-
ing neither time nor ability to car
ry it on properly, l will sell 1t at
much less than its value.
To those who are acquainted
with the place no commentator
is necessary. For the benefit OF
those who are not, say it is one OF
the best farms on the Lamoille
River. 1t has a meadow nearly or
quite one mile in length, and
nearly as level as floor. 1t was
in a fair state of cultivation when
purchased by my father, and du-
ring the many years that he has
owned it he has been constantly
improving it, until it is to-day one
of the most fertile farms on the
Lamoille River. The dwelling is
a good two-story house, in an ex-
cellent state of repair and pleas
antly located, and the barns are
air. 1t would cost $500 at least
to build the buildings to-day
The larger part of the farm is
in Morristown, where taxes are
comparatively low. The balance
lies contiguous to Hyde Park vii
lage, where there is an academy,
court house, two banks, printing
office, steam mill, hide house, and
sundry stores, railroad depot, ETC.,
all of which are within Il TO y
mile of the farm. The place is
now offered for $4,000. 1t was
sold a few years since for $4,000.
1t contains 200 or els acres, but
if desired will reserve a part OF 1t.
Terms of payment will be made
easy to any one who can either
pay or secure $1,000.
