Crusade Against Tuberculosis.
The State Board of Agriculture
during the present season has held "a
meetings, two for each county, with
the exception of Grand Isle and
Windham. Grand Isle being fruit
raising district, the farmers have
asked the board to delay the institute
there until next summer, when 1t will
result in more practical good. The
board will finish its seasons meetings
at Brattleboro this week, where an IN
stitute was held Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday. The average attend
ance at the meetings has been about
$50.
In speaking of tuberculosis as

An Electric Road Between Waterbury

An electric railroad from Water.

sibilities. The Mt. Mansfield Rail
road company, whose excuse for being
is that they may sometime build such
road, held meeting at Waterbury

parties with whom the company is

in their purpose 10 acquire the fran
chise and build the road, provided
they are able TO do SO under such con-
ditions as to do themselves and the
road justice. The principal stumbling
block in the way seems TO consist in
the provision attached TO the vote of
the town of Stowe. making "A grant of
$40, 900 to the enterprise, that the road
shall be completed by the 18th of July
next. II these same people who now
have the matter under consideration

the work, and are able TO convince the

A I.arge Private Hatchery.

Silas L. Griffith of Dandy, the
wealthy lumber dealer, has informed
John w. Titcomb, state fish commits
sioner, of his intentions Of enlarging
his fish hatchery at Dandy and fur
nishing the state gratuitously with a
number Of thousand lingering trout
each year. Mr.. Griffith has been in
terested in fish culture for some time,
and year ago built a small hatchery
and five watts two miles south of his
residence, at what is known as the
"South end lumber job" The watts
were stocked with 200 large trout TAX
en- from Otter creek and Lake Griffith
and eggs were taken from the female
fish. The experiment was successful
in every way, and there are now in
this trough at the hatchery over 50,-
900 trout fry in the sac. They are a
healthy lot, and will be housed until
they become tingerlings, when part
will be liberated in Lake Griffith and
part in Otter creek. Lake Griffith is
private water. being owned by Mr..
Griffith, and is destined to become one
of the finest trout ponds in the state.
Otter creek furnishes good sport and
is public water. In few months Mr.
Griffith will begin building 80 new
vats, enlarging his hatchery and build
ing an artificial pond, where the larg-
er trout will be kept until wanted for
breeding purposes. In the center of
this pond will be "A fountain, which il
is expected will throw hundred-foot
stream. The water for the pond will
come from springs on Mt. Tabor and
that for the fountain from a spring on
Dandy mountain, 500 above the level
of Otter creek. The hatchery will be
enclosed with a wire fence. - feet
high, and will be under the supervi-
sion of man employed for that pur-
pose. The keeper will live in house
which is TO be built on hill overlook |
ing the hatchery and pond. In one (
of the watts are over 36 trout ranging |
from one to three pounds in weight. |
These were taken from Otter creek for
breeding purposes. Nearly all the
trout from Lake Griffith were caught
by Mrs. Griffith with hook and line.
Otter creek has for years been consid-
cred an excellent fishing stream and
when it is well stocked will be the
G lual of any in Vermont.

POULTRY AND DAIRY.
How Much Waste Can BE Converted Into
N Profit,


Profit.
Professor Myers of the West Virginia
experiment station would combine the
dairy and poultry and SO insure success
on the farm. He writes RS follows:
1.-THE poultry business requires no
large amount of capital, and labor up
ON the farm that would otherwise be
idle can very largely be utilized in
caring for it. Tho same families that
take the dairy products will be only too
glad to get the poultry supplies, SO that
there is no additional expense in mar
keting the supplies. Every hen, proper
ly cared for, can DO expected to pay the
owner at least 81 net per year in eggs
and considerable additional, either in
the form of eggs or of chickens raised
for sale. Considerable poultry can be
kept largely upon what would other
wise be wastes Of the dairy business.
Buttermilk or skimmilk fed to hens
will pay better than used any other
way with which 1 am acquainted. There
are wastes about the dairy stables which
cannot be utilized in any way as effect
lively as by poultry, which pick up the
lost grain, whether in the manger or in
the manure pile, and convert it into
profit.
Poultry properly handled gives the
farmer certain and ample income at
the time of year when dairymen are
generally most anxious to have the de-
ficiencies of the dairy made good, and
there is never time in the year when
poultry products may not find fair
market
Much of the mixed food for dairy
cattle is admirably adapted for feeding
poultry; little additional building is
necessary; no additional help is re-
quired. The capital invested in poultry
can be withdrawn in a few days by tho
sale Of the poultry; the waste products
of the dairy are converted into profit,
and the combination of the poultry in
dustry with the dairy business is the
most natural, the most attractive and
perhaps the most profitable adjunct to
dairying that can be thought of.
at is only a step from general
poultry business to the fancy poultry
business. For myself / prefer the egg
producing varieties to the all purpose
fowl or fowl that is especially adapted
for killing as meat. In the long run 1
think the egg producers more profitable
than tho meat producers, but that is a
question of opinion, and the point is not
to keep any fowls upon the farm that
do not pay profit to the owner. The
man who expects to secure both quail
ties in a chicken is like the man who
wants q good beef and q good dairy COW
in the same animal. 1t is best to deter
mine what man wishes to do and
work to that end"
