Immediate Vaccination Recommends

Immediate Vaccination Recommended.
At meeting of the State Board of
Health, held at Burlington, Jan. 20,
1894, it was decided to recommend an
immediate vaccination of all persons in
this state. This action is deemed neces
sary on account of the increasing pre-
valence of small pox in the neighboring
states and the appearance in our own
state of several cases.
Therefore every person residing in the
town or village of St. Johnsbury is here
by requested to give the matter imme-
date attention. Vaccination NAV be
done by the health officers or by ones
family physician. A certificate will be
given in either case to every person vac
cinated as evidence of the fact.
Virus of a quality and of a source APP
proved by the state board of health can
be obtained by the local physicians OF
the health officers at the rate of five
cents a point.

office each day between and p. m.

THE POULTRY SHOW.
Some Additional Facts About the First
Annual Success.

Some additional Facts About the First
Annual Success.
The poultry and pet stock show
closed on Friday evening last, scor-
ing a splendid success both as to the
quality of the exhibits and the num-
Der of interested spectators in at
tendance. This last feature was
pleasant surprise to the managers OF
the affair, the gate receipts being,
as one of them expressed it, flour or
FIVE times bigger than l expected
It was a fine and creditable show
all around-and everybody said so.
One gentleman from out Of town,
whose experience makes his opinion
worth something, pronounced it the
best show of the kind ever held in
the state.
The association is specially in
debted to poultry tancers in other
sections of the state who con-
tributed so generously to the mum
Der and merit of the exhibits. Some
elegant birds were thus brought in,
and attracted full measure of at
tention. w. n. French of New Hav-
en-, the originator of the White Won
der breed of fowl, had some fine
specimens on show and carried off
his share of the premiums.
T. n Vail of Lyndon contributed
handsome lot of pups OF the St.
Bernard species and Scotch Collie,
which were admired by all who saw
them; and he took special pains to
prove his interest in the success of
the exhibition-a fact which the as

The Little NAY Gold Mine.

The Cripple Creek, Col, Crusher
has the folio wing concerning mine
of which o. E. Nettleton of Boston
is New England agent:
The latest claim to attract attention is
the Little May, located on the saddle be-
tween Battle and Squaw mountains. A
shaft eighty feet deep has been sunk on
the vein, but only low grade ore was
found. At length of sixty feet drift
was started and run out on the vein
thirty odd feet. Within the last few feet
the values have increased very rapidly,
and the drift is now yielding a good
grade OF smelling ore. A 500 pound lot
was sampled down and returned by
assay SS4 gold per ton. Other smaller
samples yielded even larger results. The
vein i'll the face of the drift is six feet
wide and che streak of pay ore measures
