packed. If packed with the animal

Sort your poultry carefully, and have
the No. 1 stock of uniform quality.
Pack the No. 2 stock in separate pack
ages. Ifyou have any old bull turkeys,
put them in a separate package or with
No. Q stock. Line the boxes with clean
paper, but never use straw in packing
and wrap the birds in paper. Pack as
closely as possible, backs upward, legs
out straight, and see that the boxes are
so full that when the covers are nailed
on, there can be no possibility of the
contents shifting about. Boxes are
the best packages, and should contain
from 100 to 200 pounds. Larger boxes
are inconvenient to handle, and more

VERMONT MAPLE SUGAR Is STILL
IN 1T.

and Explanatory Remarks.
VERMONT MAPLE SUGAR EXHIBIT,
JACKSON PARK, CHICAGO,
Sept. IS, 1893.

VERMONT MAPLE SUGAR EXHIBIT,
JACKSON PARK, CHICAGO,
Sept. Is, 1898.
Dear Phenir:-I have read that Yer
monters have learned that Ohio leads in
awards on maple exhibits, so | write this
consolatOry letter. | am sorry that Ohio
received more awards than Vermont, but,
being honest, must cOncede this. Some
Vermonters have seen both exhibits and
have compared them and in their mind
eye, may be; can picture the excellence of
that from our sister state. / have been
glad this summer to be neighbor to so wor-
thy competitor for maple sugar honors
but didn't expect she would shoulder all
the medals and walk right away from us
with them. She didn't get quite all of
them, but really did have 95 against our
"a on maple syrup. This as we read II in
column of the newspaper gets away with
Vermont pride pretty fast, and the thought
may come to the home folks that "Whit-
man got left when he made his selection
of maple syrup for the Exposition"
want to write little supplement to
the list of awards which may throw
search light upon where we are at. Ohio
made entry of 131 samples of syrup, of
which 112 were presented for examination
and 95 were given awards. Vermont en-
tered "a samples of syrup and took "a
awards. We are in the minority, but had
we better sell out or swap?
One other trifling illumination of the
situation is that Vermont gave the sample
of syrup which was taken as the standard
by which all the other syrups were judged
W. r. Dean, Manchester Centre, was the
maker The syrup is wonderfully nice,
Therefore, brethren, dearly beloved, keep
right along making the same grade of ma
pie sugar and syrup which we have shown
the world here this summer, and the world
will continue to label everything on the
market "Pure as Vermont maple" because
Vermont is standard you see, and always
will be. Very respectfully,
G. ID. WHITMAN.

A Notable Vermonter.

A notable Vermonter whose death has
escaped the notice of the state press died
recently at Pomfret, Conn. We refer to
DIR. Seth Rogers, who was born at Dandy
in 1928, of Quaker parentage. He obtain
ed with great difficulty a medical education
at home and abroad; was for some 10
years at the head of large sanitarium in
Worcester; was one of the founders of the
then influential Free church of that city
and always prominent as an abolitionist
and woman suffragist; became surgeon in
1862 of the 1st South Carolina Volunteers,
the earliest regiment of freed slaves; or
ganized afterward a sanitary establishment
in Florida, where he had a winter prac-
tice for ID years, spending his summers on
a farm in Pomfret, Conn, where he also had
patients. He had lifelong struggle with
pulmonary disease and used to say to de-
spondent patients, "Why be cast down?
am on the same path myself-but there is
no hurry" And he actually warded off
the period of departure for 20 years by
will, skill and caution, in the midst of con-
slant labor for others.
