Two other farms, in addition to those
heretofore mentioned, have changed hands
recently. George Bell has bought the
farm upon which he has previously lived
and to which he moved as noted a few
weeks ago. 1t has been owned by A. P.
Ranney and occupied by a tenant George
Robbins has moved back to the old Tuthill
farm, where he lived two years ago, buying
the place of Denison Davis. II has been
many years since the owner of the place
has lived upon it, and it is encouraging to
know that the owner of the farm is TO oc-
cupy it, and it is not to be turned into pas
turage. So there is one less of our "aban-
doned' farms.
The number of pupils in what was the
old school district No. . has much in
creased of late. That school was aban-
doned many years ago, the schoolhouse
disappeared and the district was set off-a
part to No. 2, but mostly TO No. 4. The
pupils have been few and have been sent
mostly to the nearest school in Putney,
none having been in attendance at No. I.
But now the town system calls for some
change. The school in Putney has been
discontinued by the directors of that town,
and No. 4 schoolhouse is at a long dis
lance, with no direct road leading to it,
There are seven scholars now in that old
district with two more soon to be of school
age, making almost as many pupils as at
tend either of the four schools in this part
OF the town at the present time. If there
was house there would be no reason why
there should not be school kept in that
corner of the town. Two OF the chill
dren attend at No. ?, but have long dis
lance to travel. Ought the town to pro-
vide transportation from that and PERTAINS
other portions to the centre? Could all be
gathered TO the centre there could be a
good graded school and our children need
not be sent away so early or in so large
numbers for education. This is a matter
worth consideration by our people.

Dodp. 4, Grnves,s MnI Burned.

At lis Wednesday morning a fire
alarm was rung in from box %, and people
walked to find large fire off Atkinson
street, which proved to be the steam mill
of Dodge & Graves between Atkinson
street and Kerry avenue. The fire was
under such Roadway that in about 10 min
utes after the alarm was given the roof fell
in. The thoroughly wet condition of ev-
cry thing, and the absence of wind was all
that saved the village from a serious fire.
There had been no fire made under the
boiler since o'clock in the morning, and
when the fireman went home at IL o'clock
in the morning there was not spark of
fire. In the afternoon the fire wardens Wis
tied the shop and there was no fire. There
seems to be no way of accounting for the
blaze except that it was of incendiary ORR
gin. Frank and Henry Phelps and Henry
Frost had lumber in the mill, which is, of
course, wholly loss to them. There was
$4,000 insurance at the agencies of Walker
& Holden and Geo. Ball. The young
men came here from Richford, this state,
Mr. Graves coming last spring, and work
ing through the summer for l.. ID. Lock
wood; Mr.. Dodge came in the fall.
Through the winter both have worked for
Henry Phelps. In building this mill they
carried out plan for which they had been
working and saving for several years. Now
after about six weeks of running it they
have lost nearly all they had. They each
lost their tool chest and all their hand
tools.

Editor of The Ph9nir:
Dear Sir:-I am tempted to correct a statement
in your last issue-lest il convey some wrong i'm
preston regarding the so-called "black diphthe-
ria IN Hawkins Bros stables at Calais 1t was
my misfortune TO meet DR.. Hamilton, secretary
of the state board Of health in Burlington Just as
he had got notice of the dangerous character of
the disease, which had proved fatal TO the major
part of Hawkins Bros. finely bred horses and il
was reported to the board of health that il was
spreading TO the dogs ON the place, and later to
the family. This case is not in my vicinity and
should not have visited il at ALL but for the earn
estness Of DR.. Hamilton, and the apparent sin
ceT1ty of the parties who reported the to him.
and who ought 20 have known something of il
In view of the excitement prevailing, and which
manifested itself very plainly as neared the
locality thought il best to take with me DR. f
A. Rich, veterinary surgeon of Burlington. who
has been employed by the board of cattle com
missioners in several cases during the past season.
and whose dlagn sis and treatment have in all
cases been relied on 10y them. When we started
10 drive up from Montpelier, DR. Rich met a resi-
dent veterinarian practitioner and extended 70
nm the courtesy OF inspecting the case with us
DR.. Rich had no means of determining the cause
of death in the some five horses which were lost
\ before we got there-hut We did discover enough
tXldence 10 convince him that there was no diph-
thtSTia present-and not being professional man,
do not hesitate to give il my opinion that the
animals died of spinal meningitis; and to me there
was NO mystery, " as the Hawkins Bros. are
honest kreliable men, with no enemies and of
whom their neighbors spoke with uniform kind
ness and sempathy
II ismyE teriOus how such public report of the
visit which DR.. Rich and myself made to Calais
should hawk got into the papers of the state and
out of courtesy 70 DR., Rich, beg you will make
the correction Faithfully yours. -, .,,,,,

An incident of special interest to the
owners of dogs that are accustomed to
going away from the premises has occurred
here. These free running animals got
among the sheep belonging to j. Otis
Adams and killed one sheep and two lambs,
badly wounded another sheep and three
lambs, besides worrying and frightening
the other sheep. Query, is dog roaming
