ClOakS at Hal-Price

A MANUFACTURER offered us his line
- of sample garments at 80 cents on the
dollar
TOLD us that it was little early for this,
but he would have to do it soon, and he
would like us to have the benefit.
CLOAK and jackets, some at half prices;
none at over two-thirds prices in this lot.
EVERY garment is selected one. Not an
- out.of-date style amongst them.
THIS ought TO make bigger cloak sales than
any two Burlington stores have ever seen.
FOR $500 we can now sell you a wrap
that week ago we should have had to
charge $4,000 for. $1,000 buys a handsome
jacket that would have cost you $50 90 early
in the fall. And so it goes.
1T might be well for us to remind you that
in all our big stock there's not single
garment that was not made for the fall and
winter trade of 1895. Doubt if another

Work of the Cattle Commission.

Hon VICTOR l. SPEAR of the state cattle
commission and DR.. f. A. Rich of Burling-
ton tested several herds of cattle in the
vicinity of Randolph last week. In the
Beanville district (Randolph) three herds
were tested, in which the percentage of
diseased animals was very large-nearly
tifty.three per cent OF ths number tested.
In A. III. Beedle's herd of eighteen COWS,
eleven were condemned and killed. Eleven
out of seventeen belonging to George s.
Hatch, and eight out of twenty-five owned
by Thomas Connolly, were also killed.
Those in the herds of Mr.. Beedle and Mr..
Hatch were all old cows, while Mr.. Con-
nolly's were young animals. The cows
killed belonging to Beedle and Hatch were
appraised at S32 each; those of Connolly at
$50. The whole number killed cost the
state S472.
