Arbor Day work.

Another proper subject for practical
Arbor Day work is the extermin-

their nests in the wayside greenery and
extend their ravages to the neighbor-

ways Of Vermont in May and early
June, in many localities, is passing a.

their winding sheets. From stump to

The adnomitions of the law, ought to
be directed toward the determination
of these hideous defacers of the land
scape. 1t should be Arbor Day every
day in the week till these pests are de-
stroyed. 1t is better to preserve from
destruction tree that is grown than to
plant new victims for the unconquered
marauders. Every land owner should

A New Financial System.

The demand now heard from mer-
chants and manufacturers and bankers
and other intelligent observers in every
part of the country is not for some re-
pairs to our financial system, but for q
new system. No government paper can
be free from objection, because its vol
ume and redeemability will depend in
part upon the opinions of congress and
in part upon the opinions Of the pres
ident, No one can be certain that these
will be correct in all years to come. II
we could be sure that they would al
ways be correct, we could not be sure
that the government would always be
able to maintain sufficient reserve
for the redemption of the notes. If the
weight of pound and the length of a
yard were liable to be changed at any
time by congress, the uncertainty could
hardly be SO dangerous as the present
uncertainty regarding the unit of value.
This explains why SO many of the men
who do the business Of the country, not
alone in the north and east, but also in
the south and west, demand the with
drawal Of the government notes. Iron

The great 100000 damage suit in
stituted by Michigan Cereal Com
pany against the Genesee Pure Food
Company is at an end. They settled
it and took it out of court for the RI
dlculously small sum of $500, and, as
a practical result, Grain 0 is in
greater demand than ever. The new
plant, only just completed, is to be
duplicated, so that not only the old
friends of the delicious food drink,
which completely takes the place of
coffee, but the new friends it is max
ing every day, can be supplied. The
beverage which the children, as well
as the adult, may drink with benefit,

While a government can within its
