Alpha Messer of Rochester, Master
of the State Grange, has recently re-
turned from an extensive Southern
tour and in the last New England Far
mer writes of what he thinks of that
county from farmers point of view.
Itisa graphic-pen-picture of constant
fight against poor soil, disagreeable
weather and lack of capital, and the
southern farmer closes the year with
poor crops and no money. His cotton
yields from SIS to SIG per acre and
his average crop of corn is only II bu.
to the acre. Here are couple of par
agraphs that ought to encourage every
Vermont farmer:
/ know of no section of the country
where grass grows greener and better
than in New England. Nowhere are
the farm buildings SO neat and tidy,
and nowhere are better evidence of the
intelligence and thrift of the farming
population.
Nowhere in my travels in the West
or South have found the average far
mer SO well situated and in so com
Portable circumstances as in New Eng
land, and | can see no good reason
why he shonld leave the land of hi
birth, the land of schools and churche
to build up the waste places in othe
sections of the country.
Why go South when, the Vernon
farms can make so much better show
ing? Mr.. Messer's loyalty to New
England is as honest as it is commend
able.-Randolph Herald.

There's many a man that's said to himself,
Now the Editors work must be fun, lpaste,
For his insides made up with scissors and
And the devil kept on the keen run
But hark ye, when settled to biz on the outside,
1t is here that the sine qua non,
Of his local sheet must be scanned DER and Ger
And served up, nwnc am nunqadm
He commences the task, this scanning of letters,
A work which by no means is easy, know,
For Tom, Dick and Harry write the locals you
That makes the outside appear breezy
So he reads the latest from j. and Il. L.,
Then hastily glances at G's,
Inserts few commas, a colon perchance,
In the news served up by j. BIS.
He takes up another,-its bare superscription
Tells him plainly, to getinto gear, Lsay
For it's signed NJ. j. H. and he's something to
That is likely to be writ mighty queer.
And so 1t goes on from one to another,
The Editor grows weary and lank,
He reads about crops and all sorts of weather,
And the last busted Western bank.
OF neighborhood quarrels, and change of To-
cation,
OF For Sale To Rent and the like, lstove'
He must sift out the good and consign to The
Matter rejected upon principles Of right
lie must keep himself posted on current events
And write up his leaders with care,
For his paper is read by those who know now
To take others, and with it compare.
SO now my dear frierd, if you think it's such

And the Editors work Is play, hand
Please call at his sanctum and just try you

March term one year ago deft, Sc

adultery and has since married Mr..

divorce was granted the care and Gus
tody of the children was given to the
deft. and now the plaintiff brings his
petition to have the care and custody
of said children changed from the

are not properly treated and cared
for. The court ordered that the care
and custody of the three Oldest chill
dren be given to the plaintiff and that

1t is reported that Gov. Page is
considering the propriety OF calling
the legislature together to make pro-
vision for the snug little sum coming
to the State through the refunding OF
the direct tax levied during the war.

You'd better let that money go to

TO THE
FARMERS OF VERMONT !

1t has accidently come to
my knowledge that you oc-
casionally make complaints
because of the small sums re-
ceived for your Dairy skins.
The fault is your own, for II
YOU would take them off and
properly care for them you
would rarely find a skin that
would bring you less than 81
cents, and a great many OF
them would bring you 60, 70
and even 80 cents each.
Poor skins, like poor butter,
are poor property and bring a
poor price. 1t will cost you
only a penny for postal card
on which to send me your ad-
dress, to secure full printed
directions as to the proper
method of taking off and caring
for your calf skins. | will very
gladly mail these to you free,
postpaid, if you will send me
your name and so request.
In most of the towns of Ner-
mont l have buyers but in To-
calities where | have none ]
would suggest that a half doz-
en- farmers club together and
ship their skins in quantities OF
125 or more in which case
will pay all freights after de-
livery at r. R. depot. | can
not allow you wholesale prices
in towns where | have a buy,
er but where | have none
will gladly arrange with any
reliable farmer who is Wiling
to attend to the matter of col
lecting skins taken off in his
vicinity, and in such case vii
of course allow the buyer''
commission.

Hector was seen at the st. Charles hotel
last night. In reference to the statement
published ina New York newspaper that
he contemplated resigning, he said there
was no truth in il and that his relations
with the administration are of the most
amicable character.
"How about the preparations now be-
ing made by your family to leave Wash
ington?' he was asked.
''My family" Mr.. Proctor replied,
"leave the capital for the summer each
year, and any preparations now making
have this end in view and have no othel
significance"
ut is stated, Mr.. Proctor, that YOU
business interests in Vermont are suffer
ing for want of your personal attention.
"My son practically had full charge o.
my busi .ess before | went into the cabi
net, and being younger and smarter, il
much better able to take care of it than
am"
| In conclusion he said "You are author
lied to make positive and emphatic de
nial of any intention on my part of resign
ing from the cabinet" Secretary Proctor

thence to Los Angeles.

A delegation of colored newspaper
men called upon President Harrison
the other day and asked that their
race be represented in the manage
ment of the Worlds Fair and that a
colored man be appointed to one OF
new Judgeships. The President said
that in the matter of the Worlds Fail
they were too late as there were nc
vacancies. But if they had mar
qualified for Judgeshsp they could
present his name and it would be con.
sidered.

The work of the Tariff.

A press dispatch from New York
says.
More foreign machinery has been
brought here from England. This
lot is worth $4,000 and is from Not
tingham, and was used for the man
ufacture of lace and lace curtains. The
machinery is consigned to Anderson,
Churchill & Co. Of New York, who
say that, all told, 100000 worth will
be brought over and that lace works
will be established at Patchogue, where
200 men will be employed. The change
of base, it was said, was brought about
by the Mckinley duties on Nottingham
lace and lace curtains.

Gentlemen: | am now sixty-four years

in my head gave me no rest. My
memory failed me, until | could not re-
member the common occurrences about
my work for TEN MINUTES AT TIME.

had no strength. / would have to sit down
several times while washing my dishes.
After reading your strong testimonials
l decided to try DANA'S SARSAPA-
RILLA. l have taken three bottles. The
NOISES IN MY HEAD CEASED before | had
taken one bottle. My STRENGTH HAS RE-
TURNED SO 1 do my work without fatigue.
1 have good appetite, sleep well nights,
and my MEMORY HAS RETURNED,
for all of which am very thankful, and
know that the praise belongs to DANA'S
SARSAPARILLA.
Yours truly,
MARY A. ALBEE.
