Too much stress cannot be laid upon the great adj
vantage to the fugrower of being in early locality.
In most it makes the difference between success
and failure. The industrious orchardst of Capay Valley
may assured that he will derive all the benefits gained
by the first fruit shipments of the season. and that 20
acres Of this rich land when the trees bearing, will
yield handsome and assured income.
! The Capay Valley Land Company has agent re-
siding in the valley whose duty to show the various
tracts to land seekers.
Four townsites have been laid out in different points
in the valley, viz: Esparto Cadenasso, Gunda and
Rumsey. Town lots may now be purchased at reason
able prices and on easy terms
The enterprsng and fourshing town Of Esparto IS
situated at the lower end of the valley and SI25
worth of substantial buildings have already been erected
including fine four-story brick hotel large brick
blocks and waterworks with pipes laid in the Streets
besides extensive warehouses and residences
The town has a postof1ce school-house and weekly
paper, and the fine railroad depot contains telegraph
and express offices.
Rumsey This latter place, situated the head Of the
valley, is the present terminus of the railroad The
Portable little hotel makes excellent quarters for hunters
as well as land-seekers
The advantages enjoyed by the settler in Capay VAL
ley may be thus concisely summed up:
soil Of great fertility yielding bounhfully Of every
CROP
soil and climate which will rpen all kinds Of fruit and
vegetables earlier than anywhere else in the State.
climate perfectly adapted to the curing of rasns and
drying Of frn without the aid of artificial evaporatos.

Mr.. Crowell, in explanatory letters to
which the committee refer, states that the
present available capacity of the Chestnut
Hill reservoir is between 100000 and
5000, 900 gallons. Were the walls to be
built and completed at the south end, as
originally proposed, the capacity would be
increased to $S.00O,000 gallons. The av-
erage daily supply which flows into the
reservoir cannot be stated, because the
supply varies constantly according as the
season is wet or dry. Mr.. Crowell esti-
mates the amount of water necessary for
watering the streets at $4,000 gallons
day at the maximum, and the daily
consumption for all purposes, including
watering the streets, at 100000 gallons.
With regard to the rates charged for
water he reminds the committee of the
unusually large expense which was neces-
sarly involved in building the present sys-
TEN and securing a supply of water; and
also that the present system supplies only
a fractional part of the water used in the
village on account of the large amount
furnished by the several private aqueducts.
While it has been evident for some time,
and noticeably so the past season, that
additional water, and much larger i'm
pounding reservoir will eventually be re-
quired, it did not seem prudent to wait
longer for the completion of an ideal plant,
and he has therefore made arrangements
to meet fully the increased demand the
coming season and insure an adequate sup
ply for all purposes. This he proposes to
do by putting in pumping station on
West river, and run not less than a six
inch pipe from it to the present reservoir.
This work will be begun as early in the
spring as possible and pushed to compile
ton so as to meet all the requirements OF
the village the coming summer. This
pumping plant will be put in under guar
anty that it will furnish 10000 gallons OF
water in ten hours, or 5000 gallons in a
day of 20 hours-if necessary-and a:
/ this smaller amount is more than doubl,
/ the amount required at the present time
this plant, coupled with the present sup
ply, must, in Mr.. Crowelrs judgment, GOV
/ err all possible demands and contingencie:
| for many years.
Mr.. Crowelrs pump, as is well known
arrived in January and has demonstrated
its guaranteed capacity of 800, 900 gallons
a day through a siX-inch pipe. The pip'
to be used in connecting the pump will
the West river and the reservoir has al
ready been contracted for, and it is to b,
delivered by the time the ground can b,
worked in the spring. Mr.. Crowell re
peats, in conclusion, that he has no doub
of his ability to meet all the needs of thu
village in the way Of a water supply TO
the coming season.

The Fire Department Report.

In answer to enquiries by the committee
the board of engineers of the fire depart
ment submit series Of statements regard
ing the results of trial tests of Mr.. Crow
ellis water system for fire department pur-
poses made January 3. The pressure OBJ
tanned from the hydrants on Main, High,
Frost, Brook and Canal streets, and on
Prospect hill, is given, together with the
amount of water that can be delivered
from the hydrants at these various eleva-
tions through hose of different lengths.
The engineers state that "the hydrants
have uniformly done efficient and satisfac-
tory service in eXtinguishng fires, and with
a sure and abundant supply of water at all
times in the reservoir, aided by the steam
ers, cisterns, and hose carts, our hydrant
system would, in our opinion, furnish the
village with very efficient and reliable
means for extinguishing fires, except in a
few localities where more hydrants are
needed" An increase of the number of
hydrauts, in locations which are named, is
recommended.

above the asylum meadow. As plant of
this kind can be much more cheaply run
by hydraulic than by steam power, the
question of developing the power of the
river for this purpose ought to be consid-
cred before proceeding to erect a steam
pumping plant. Preliminary levels and
other measurements prove that a dam sew
en- feet high might be built across the river
half mile above Yields, and the water
brought down in a penstock or canal to
drive the pumping plant Such dam
could probably be built for $500, and
penstock could be put in for S15, 900, maxi
ing a cost of 1922, 800 above the estimate
for the steam pumping plant.
Without undertaking to say whether
this location could be acquired, Mr.. Els
worth says the best place for a distributing
reservoir would be on top of the hill in the
asylum park. The elevation there would
be 20 feet less than the head from the
Stickney brook reservoir. 1t would re-
quire to be carefully built to prevent waste
full infllration through the seams of the
rocks. The total cost of a steam pump
ing system, mains and reservoir, is placed
at S101 PIP. Although the first cost Of
the pumping system is some S35, 600 less
than the cost of the proposed gravity sys-
TEN, Mr.. Ellsworth reminds the commit
tee that under the pumping system there
is a constant expense of raising the water
to the reservoir, which is not required by
the gravity plant. From a table showing
the cost of pumping by steam in "a cities
the average appears to be Sl2 per million
gallons raised 100 feet, or S33. 60 per mil
lion gallons raised $50 feet, as would be
necessary in this case. The cost of pump
ing by hydraulic power is only about 81
per million gallons, raised 100 feet.
In conclusion Mr.. Ellsworth speaks of
the Crowell system, of which he was asked
to give his impressions. The principal
criticism to be made upon it is the same
which applies to all such systems which
have been put in without a full and clear
idea of future needs, viz, that the pipes
are too small to give the best results, and
that many lines are not properly reinforced,
although it is practically shown that they
do not fail to give, in most localities, fair
ly good service There is no doubt that
with proper expenditure to increase the
supply in a thorough and permanent man
ner, the system can be made to answer the
purpose as well in the future as in the
| past. whether, in view of the character
and design of this system, it is better &c
depend longer upon what private enter
prise will furnish, or make the expenditure
Immediately, which sooner or later in any
case must be made, it seems to me, is &
question that lies entirely with the voter
of your district to decide"

The hall was filled, Protective grange Of
Brattleboro sending as many as - repre-
sentativcs, and this number was doubled
by the other oranges. The morning ses-
sion was devoted to general grange bust
ness, with a basket dinner at II o'clock.
The open session began at 80 with an ad-
dress of welcome by f. E.Ward, followed by
CIV Sargent, who, in his response, express
ed warm sympathy with the people of
Guilford in their recent affliction by the
railroad accident.
The discussion on the profitable use of
commercial fertilizers brought out some
live ideas. X. b. Thomas, d. K. Carpen-
ter and d. T. Perry urged as most neces-
sary to save all the liquid manure. They
use phosphate only as starter. Mr..
Thomas thinks the best fertilizers show in
the grass following corn. He had counted
every hill of corn in the clover, which was
larger. Mr.. Carpenter said, make water
tight cellars and use absorbents; better
use phosphate than buy so much western
corn. Mr. Perry has no use for phosphate
since he cemented his barn cellar bottom
and sides The manure makes a complete
fertilizer. But he uses only phosphate in
his garden, and so has fewer weeds to fight.
Another point in the garden-make long
rows and hoe by horse power.
A. }. White thinks farmers must study
their own circumstances. He has one
neighbor who will use nothing but COM
mercial fertilizers for tobacco, and another
one-fOurth stable manure. j. Z. Goode-
nough had seen phosphate used where the
increase in fodder alone would pay for all
the cost OF the fertilizer. p. 5. Eames
would study his soil in choosing an absorb
ent. Muck is best for light soils, while
sand is good on heavy land. Exhaust all
means for increasing home supply before
/ buying commercial manure. Phosphate
/ quickens the growth of corn and brings it
/ in ahead of frost. .. j. Hale has good
/ luck with phosphate sometimes, but it did
not pan out big on his potato patch last
/ year, though few of his potatoes were
! big enough for the table. Fred Spaulding
thinks that with barn cellar phosphates
are not needed; still he uses some every
year to increase his crops; thinks the first
year uses up the good of it. He has used
ashes, both leached and unleached, on his
pasture, and now has a thick growth OF
white clover where white grass grew be-
fore. Ashes pay l.. l.. Barney uses
phosphate to bring forward the crop, but
believes in improving all home chances for
manure first. ID. S. Bond uses manure in
the hill with best results.

BRATTLEBORO HIGH SCHOOL.
An Appeal TO the Alumni, and TO All
other Friends Of the school.


other Friends of the school.
To the alumni and friends of the Brattle-
boro High school, and to the citizens of
Brattleboro generally:
Dear Friends:-By the recent prize
speaking contest we have netted the hand
some sum of S206. As many already
know, this money is to be devoted to dec
Grating and identifying the High school
room by furnishing its walls with busts,
engravings, and other works of art, to-
gether with a rich frieze around the en-
tire room. Now, for this purpose the sum
mentioned is far from sufficient The
school committee have promised to tint
and paint the walls, ceiling, and wood
work Of the room for us during the com
ing summer vacation, so that we shall be
able to expend all of our own money upon
matters purely ornamental and decorative.
1t seems to us, however that we shall need
the sum of 500, at least, to carry out our
plans as we have them in mind, and so we
come to you with an appeal to aid us in
our undertaking to make our school room
the old school room of many of you--
more cheerful and attractive than its now
bare walls permit l. to be. In its outside
appearance and in beauty of situation
There Is not Jne equal OF our ScnoOl Dullu-
ing in the state of Vermont. Unfortun-
ately, the contrast between the inside and
the outside is altogether too marked.
While we do not wish to lapse into the
sentimental, still we believe that refined
and beautiful surroundings do have an ed
ucating and refining influence upon all sit
uated amidst them. We think that 500
can be expended by those interested in the
Brattleboro High school in no more salts
factory or beneficial way than that which
we propose. We therefore ask you, will
you help us?
All responses may be sent to the prnci-
pal of the school, when they will be
promptly acknowledged to the donors per
sonally, and publicly through the local pa
pers.
Trusting that your love for your alma
mater, or, if not an alumnus, for that in
stitution which surely lies near and dear tc
the heart Of every good citizen of Bratte
boro, will arouse a generous response tC
| this appeal, we are, respectfully,
THE MEMBERS OF THE
BRATTLEBoRo HIGH SCHOOL.
/ BY their principal, James ID. Horne.
