The PrOhibitOry Law.

G. H. Hayden, grand chiet templar of
the l. O. G. T. OF Vermont, has sent the
press of the state extracts from an address
he delivered at meeting of the grand
lodge in Mortified October 12. Among
other things he says:
Where the law has been most strongly
adhered to there have fourished the best
schools and most influential churches and
under those benefcent influences have been
fostered the choicest character, ripest
craftsmanship and the noblest patriotism.
Such, briefly, has been the intention and
history of our prohibitory law. What i,
said against this lawp First, that it does
not prohibit. Second, that it is fanatically
stringent. 1t is admitted by all, however,
that when enforced the law does prohibit
So then the crucial test is enforcement
Why then do not our officials fulfill theil
vows and enforce it p They reply that the
law is in advance Of public sentiment. Sc
is every law that is worthy. Public senti.
ment, however, should compel our officials
to keep their oath of Office at least Al
this point we find a disagreeable condition
of affairs, namely, the corrupting influence
of the law breaker upon the law enforcer,
which l deprecate but shall not discuss
further than to deny that the law itself il
in anyway responsible for these corrupting
influences. Law making is one distinct
function of our government. The enforce.
ment OF law is another. A failure in en-
forcement can never be construed fault
in the making. l suggest that the advo
Gates of License assist temperance people tt
enforce prob bition as proper means o
finding its dtf-cts.

THE VEGETABLE GROWER.

Some Useful Hints Concerning tho Care
of ihe Garden.
At this season the garden loses
much of it's attractiveness, bare spaces
being unavoidable rs 1t is now too late
to keep the ground filled up; still we
should not relax our efforts to keep it
as attractive as possible while the
weather holds good. We can at least
keep tidy by having old plants (such as
bush beans, corn stalks, ETC., from
which the crops have been gathered);
cleared away and the ground kept clean
also all walks and borders kept as clean
and neat as possible.
COLD FRAMES.
These will claim more attention now,
as we must soon begin to look to them
for our supply of lettuce, radisn, cauli-
flower etc. Watering and airing must
be carefully attended to, and although
we do not look for hard frosts for
some time yet, the covering boards
should be held in readiness SO they
can be thrown on If a cold snap should
happen to come.
PARSLEY.
When a special sowing Of parsley
was not made for winter use the pres
ent is good time to lift some roots
from the sowing made in spring and
plant them in cold frame. They still
have time to make fresh roots and be-
come we'll established before hard
weather sets in, and ii kept from freez-
ing and otherwise carefully tended
should give Q supply right through the
winter.
CELERY.
That intended for use from now on
should be kept banked up as supply de-
mands, and the late paintings may re-
ceive the first handling now, Just
enough soil being pressed around the
plants to gather them up into shape,
all side growths and bad leaves being
of course first removed. We have a
general complaint this year about rust
being prevalent, but so far we have had
very little of it. This is probably due
to the fact that we have given an oc-
casional dusting of Hammonds Grape
Dust which appears to act as pre-
ventive. Just how far it would so to-
ward stopping the leaf spot If the
plants were badly affected, l am not
prtpared to say, not having had chance
to try it, but later on I will be able
to give fuller details of it's effectiveness
| as a preventive. 1t has been so far
good, but the hardest part of the trial
is to come yet, as We may expect the
weather for the next few weeks to be
more genial to the growth of fungus,
since we are most likely to have cold
night dews and bright warm days.
