To the Republicans Of Vermont:
The passing of four years of peace and
plenty has brought again the hour when
the Nation awaits, from the loyal Republi-
cans or this Commonwealth, their hearty
endorsement of the political principles
whose enforcement has secured that pros
perity.
They are watching for the beacon fires on
our mountain tops, which shall flash across
column has again taken up its march on to
victory, with Vermont at the head.
Four years ago it was the proud privilege
of the Republicans of this state to virtually
make the choice of the National party for
President, and to lead the great uprising of
popular sentiment which overthrow the
power of Democracy and seated him in the
White House.
Wisely and well did you choose, Yer
monters, so wisely that to-day, "A great ma
ton rejoicing in the manifold blessings
which have been ours under his admins
tration, appeals to you once more to set the
step of another triumphal entry into Wash
ington.
You are called again to ratify your first
selection and to demonstrate to the cOun-
try that your faith is still abiding in the
great principles of government of which
BENJAMIN Harrison and Whitelaw Reid are
the chief opponents.

its present consequence and influence, will
be found in the majority by which your sup
port those representative Vermonters, Full
Ter and Stranahan, at the September cleo
ton.
Arrangements have been made for a
grand rally at Burlington, August S0th, at
which it is earnestly hoped every League
Club, as an organization, will be present
with the largest possible number. Gov.
VIM. Mckinley, of Ohio, the Great Ex-
FOUNDER of Protection, will deliver the
principal address, and ringing speeches are
expected from a number of prominent Re
publcans. This occasion will be the
greatest event of the campaign in Vermont,
and affords a rare opportunity for absorb
ing, from the very fOuntain-head, the truths
of the grand doctrine which is the fOunda-
ton of our platform.
Low rates of transportation have been
secured from all parts of the state, and
special excursion trains will be run TO and
from Burlington on that day. Full particu-
lars will be announced later through the
state papers.

Vermont Breeders Meeting.

The Vermont Association of Road and
Trotting Horse Breeders will hold its eighth
annual summer exhibition at Rutland,
August S0th, 31st and September LIST.
This Association, formed on one OF the
chief industries of the farmers of our state,
was organized in 1885 for the purpose of adj
yancing the legitimate interests of Vermont
breeders of road and trotting horses.
The success it has achieved in this direc-
ton has far surpassed the expectations of
the most sanguine. At the last meeting in
Rutland there were more than lOOO horses
on exhibition, and all previous colt records
of the state were broken. Intending pur-
chasers from all parts of the country have
so freountly attended and so many sales
made that the Association has organized
and will hold its I'd annual public sale in
connection with its coming meeting, OF
about 80 horses-matched and single drivers,
stations. brood mares, colts and tillles-the
get of such Vermont sires as Leicester

Melrose and of Onward 2:25 IA. Among
the stations offered for sale are Highland
GREY 2:20, Morgan Ethan 2:29 1-2, and AL
bany Waikiki.
The Sale is to be absolute, no by-bidding
allowed. 100000 is offered by the AsSoci-
alton in Stakes and Premiums. Inc llSt OF
entries is the largest in the history OF the or
ganizatiOn.
Three or more races will be trotted each
day and a grand exhibition OF stock by
families
President Harrison, whose carriage horses
were bred in Vermont attended the last Elk
nibition, and Secretary Rusk was only pre-
vented by sickness in the family, and he
sent an expert to report the meeting to the
Agricultural Department of the Govern
ment.
Vermont bred horses, having furnished
the foundation for Kentucky horses, are
becoming more and more sought for breed
ing purposes in the west-the writer knows
of one breeder who has sold for over $1,000
90 worth this summer, and OF others who
have orders for many more.
Attend this meeting and you will seek all
future ones without an invitation. The
Railroads will carry you at excursion rates,
and extra trains will be run for your ac-
commodatiOn. Rutland has ample and first
class hotels. Catalogues containing list
of all entries may be had at this office, or of
the Secretary at Brandon.

limping along with canes thirty or forty a

Inquiry among Mr.. Smiths friends shows
that he states nothing but facts in regard
to his case. Many other instances of the
kind are widely talked of here in Provi-
dence, where Paine's celery compound has
effected cures after physicians had given
up hope. Local physicians who have been
interviewed agree that it is undoubtedly
the most reliable means known for curing
diseases of the nervous sys-
TEN, kidney troubles.
Physicians in this city prescribe the COM
pound freely, as they are acquainted with
its formula and know that it is not a patent
medicine. 1t gives health and strength to

State Agricultural Experiment
Station,
BURLINGTON, VT.

BURLINGTON, VT, Aug. ~, 1892
The true blight or rust has appeared on
the potato leaves, and the weather is favor
able for the rapid and destructive spread of
the disease. Unless preventive measures
are taken at once there will be much loss
from the rot. Those who intend to use the
Bordeaux mixture should not delay an hour
longer than is necessary.
Since sending you my former letter two
weeks ago large number of letters of in
curry have been received which emphasize
the need of further information by the
farmer as to the so called ''new disease of
the potatoes.
This disease has attacked early potatoes
very generally throughout the state. 1t is
an entirely different and distinct disease
from the true blight and it is very impor-
tant that all potato growers learn to dis
which it is hoped will aid them in so doing
has been sent to the postmasterS through
out the state for free distribution.
The most important practical differences
between the diseases noted in this circular
are as follows:
LIST. The spores of the fungus which
causes the true blight or ''rust' pass from
the blighting vines to the tubers causing
the rot. No rOtting oil the tuberS is caused
by the new disease.
Id. The true blight or ''rust'' attacks
later potatoes worst. The ''new disease''
is confined to early potatoes.
Sd. The true blight or trust can be
checked by spraying with the Bordeaux
Mixture. The new disease is not so easily
checked by spraying.
The following points Will aid in distin-
gushing the two diseases.
New disease. Practically everything in
the way of diseased potato leaves up to
this date, Aug. II, has been the ''new dis
ease. This is everywhere on early pOta-
toes. so far as we can learn. The diseased
plants appear sickly and of a yellowish
cast instead of a dark healthy green. Soon
leaves turn yellow and die. The death be-
gins on uninjured leaves about the tip and
edges and the leaves die rather slowly so
that they become crisp and curl at the tip
and edges as the disease progresses. The
trouble is worse on leaves that have been
partially eaten by potato bugs or other in
sects. Whenever the leaf is injured the
disease attacks il and spreads from these
spots. Thus leaf may show a score or
more of black spots varying in size from
pin head to marble. In some pieces of
early potatoes every leaf is dead or dying.
Blight Very few potato growers will
mistake the true blight or "rust' when
they see il. This disease is commencing to
show on later potatoes. The large BLUSH
black spots appear on the leaves at any
place. The disease spreads so rapidly that
the whole leaf is killed in a day or two.
There is not tune for it to dry and curl but
il hangs limp and rOtting from the stem.
The surest evidence of the blight as distin-
guished from the new disease is the pres
ence of the mildew which causes the blight.
Ii can easily be seen ON the under side of
the rapidly blighting leaves as a delicate
white mlldew which looks like frost work
upon OF about the edges of the black spots.
