NOTES FOR WOMEN.

Another of the largest colleges recognizes
women and admits them to equal rights
with men. This time it is Yale. Let US
send up our heartfelt thanks.
The government of Australia has agreed
to appoint a commission of women to fur.
ther the display of women's work at the
Columbian exposition.
The closing of the exposition grounds on
Sunday is creating quite controversy.
The subject is discussed both pro and con
in some of the eastern papers. It is quite
alarming in some of its phases, and seems
too bad to have our reputation as a nation
go abroad as careless in this respect when
our Puritan ancestors were so rigid in their
Sunday observance.
Uncle Sam and Columbia, our national
father and mother, must be ashamed of theii
children, for they will have Intoxicating
liquors on the exposition grounds. Never.
theless, some of Uncle Sans best behaved
children are not IN favor of it and are fight
ing it with heart and soul.
Labor Commissioner Robinson, of Michi
gan, presents the following facts in his an

Another tumble in wheat has taken
place. For some time past the price
has ranged from so to Sc cents, but
it is now down to IS cents and in re-
allty the market does not justify more
than 73 cents. The cause of this is
said to be the excellent crops which
are expected in all sections the coming
year. Probably another reason is that
a large number of farmers who held
their wheat are now unloading.

1t seems unnecessary to call attention
to two or three unwritten rules of 'ery
newspaper office, says the CdiedOnidn,
yet it often happens that people who do
business with us forget some of the
simplest rules of the office. Here are
some:
|. All communications of all items
of news intended for publication must
be accompanied by the name of the
writer. This week an item WIS de-
posted in the waste basket for the sole
reason that il was sent anonymously.
Whoever sent it knows now why it was
not used
2. Many subscribers who want their
address changed neglect to tell us where
their paper has been going. This in
wolves the duty of writing them Il postal
to find out their former address.
3. Most papers and magazines that
we club with stop sending their publica-
tions after the subscription has expired.
If they should not do so when the time
expires and any of our subscribers do
not want the paper and magazine, the
way to stop it is to notify the publishers.
After first copy of paper or magazine is
received, futher correspondence concern
ing errors or changes of post Office ad
dress or discontinuance should be direct
with the publishers.

Odd FelIOws Home.

L. V. Green returned Tuesday evening
from Burlington, where he went in the

chairman, and II. W. Hall of Burlington,
the treasurer. Mr.. Green was elected

The committee discussed the needs of
an Odd Bellows home and adopted this
resolution:
"ResOlved, That the project of estab-
fishing an Odd Fellows home in the state
is practicable and feasible, and that i'm
mediate steps be taken towards the es-
adjustment of such home"
1t was decided to prepare circular to
send to all the lodges in the state, stating
the needs of a home, the benefits to be
derived and urging the ladies' to agitate
the subject and give it their support.
No proposition was presented to the
meeting. The committee is now ready
to receive propositions and subscrip-
tiOns. -RWldRd Herald.

Settling the affairs of the Arlington
Manufacturing Company is causing con-
siderable litigation, says a correspondent
of the Manchester Journal, and no one
can tell how it will come out. Messls.
Stewart d Wilds of Middlebury, at
torneys for Receiver HeatOn of HUoSick
Falls, have filed the latter's crOss-bill in
the chancery suit of Miner 4. Hurd VS..
Arlington Manufacturing Company and
others pending in the Bennington County
Court of Chancery. The suit of Mr..
Hurd was brought for the purpose of
forccnsing the lien of Il mortgage, which
he claims was executed by the company
in 1897 to secure an issue of bonds az
gregating $4,000. Receiver HeatOn
claims that the mortgage is wholly void
and alleges in his cross bill that if Mr.
Hurd is the bona tide owner of two
bonds, which is questioned, he has been
more than paid out of the rents and
profits received by him during the last
ten years, arising from the alleged fraud
ulent conversion of company property
and the use and occupation of certain
real estate in Sandgate. The bill de-
mands an accounting of Mr.. Hurd as a
murtgagee in possession. Suit has also
been brought by the receiver against
Cole Sickle, now of Salem, n. Y, for
conversion Of large quantity of timber
and lumber, claimed to have belonged to
the company.

tries only, were quick to appropriate the
improvements thus provided for the 10
comotiOn of. cars, the transmission OF
thought and for the lighting of streets.
No more is expected of the farmer than
that he in his department should exer-
else a like intelligence and dlscrimina-
ton in appropriating also the discover
les which science is continually making
for his improvement and profit. This Is
the only object of these institutes ana
farmers meetings; that the farmer, III
his callings, shall exercise the same de
gree of intelligent inquiry and manage
mant as dn mon purnred in other indus
tries. The farmer should be man who
reals and studies amt learns ali that is
printed about soils and their uses; about
plants and their growth; about animals
and their adaptation to the farm just as
much as railroad managers must study
anu learn every improvement made to
secure dispatch and cheapness in the
transportation of freight. Now we hope
in view of these reflections, that what
was undertaken last winter will not be
omitted ut this season. We wish our
Young men to stay on the farm, not be-
cause they are unfit for anything else,
but because it offers better chances FOR
success than any other field Of labor.
We believe that the young man should
educate himself for the farm just as
much as he who expects to become
physician or lawyer. And we wish our
Young men especially, to attend these
meetings, and give them the warmth and
yiuor of their new and healthy life; and
let all those old ''foggies" who carry to
market all the grain raised on tho farms,
and who still insist that calves raised ON
skim milk, and pigs raised on diSh-wa-
ter make the best veal and pork; who
raise their girls and boys on greeSe and
pork rindS, discarding as useless all
"bouk learning" Oh! let them stay at
home bV all means.
