An Electric Railroad Fight.

The Northampton correspondent OF the
Springfield Sunday Republican writes some
interesting things in regard 10 the contest
between the Northampton and Amherst
Electric Railroad company, OF which L. Z.
Crosby is a member, and the Amherst and
Sunderland company. The Northampton
and Amherst company has been granted
franchises by the selectmen of Northamp-
ton and Haley and has asked the select
men OF Amherst for a franchise TO build
in that town along the proposed state road
and thus Join Amherst with Northampton
by running through Hadley The Am
herst and Sunderland road has scored
point against It's rival by securing from the
Amherst selectmen a franchise TO build TO
the Amherst line, although not along the
proposed state road A petition has also
been presented to the Amherst selectmen
asking that no franchise be granted along
the proposed state road. The Northamp-
ton correspondent SAYS that the motive
back of this petition is the desire OF the
Amherst and Sunderland road 10 enrich its
corporate pocket by forcing the Northamp-
/ ton and Amherst company TO buy out It's
/ franchise "Ihere is no possibility that
/ the Amherst and Sunderland road can Sc
/ cure a franchise in Hadley and so their
J line, II Oullt, WOulu run lOlh AHneIst
/ and end in some huckleberry patch. The
/ question will finally come: DO the people
of Amherst want a trolley road to North
ampton? If they do the Northampton
aud Amherst company stands ready to
build it, and this is the only company that
does. Such discriminating action, and
that simply tor possible pecuniary gain tC
one corporation over another, as that OF
! this week is not inst to the COMPANIES mol
beneficial to the town.

The Vermont Savings Bank.

The annual meeting of the Vermont
Savings bank was held Wednesday. when
the old board OF officers was reelected
without change. Ii, p Weliman, 5 A
Smith and W. K. Geddis were added To
the board of cOrpOrators. The DIST an
nual statement of the bank shows deposits
of S3.062, 26l.4l. The reserve fund and
surplus amount to S30S, 900. AS compared
with one year ago the deposits are about
S2j, 600 less The cash on hand is about
Sl40, 600 less than then and there has been
a small decrease in the amount of city
bonds held. To Offset these two items
there has been a large increase in loans on
mortgage real estate and loans with per
sonal security, and in one OF two other
items of resources. During the first part
of the year 1897 there was considerable
falling of in deposits, due mainly TO the
demands of depOsitors in Cheshire county,
y. H., whose personal resources had been
reduced by the closilg OF the Savings
banks in keene, Winchester and Hinsdale.
During the last six months deposits have
again increased, and from the same source
several of the Cheshire county banks
having paid dividends out of their assets
and the money having been brought to
BrattleborO for deposit. The condition of
the old bank has evidently never been
sounder or more secure than now. After
the business of Wednesdays meeting had
been transacted the annual corporation
dinner was eaten al the Brooks House.

A description Of the old New England
Sabbath is calculated to make restless
children of the present day and possibly
some of their elders thankful they were
not born two centuries ago.
The Sabbath began Saturday after
noon with the going down of tho sun.
Sunday morning IL horn was loudly
blown to announce the hour of worship.
Service began ut 8 O'Clock and lasted
for eight hours, with an intermission OF
one hour for dinner and conversation.
In the earliest days the congregation sat
on rude benches, their seats being as
signed them at town meeting. The
service consisted Of several parts. which
are chronicled in an ancient diary as
follows.
Preliminary prayer or invocation;
chapter Of Bible read and eXpounded;
psalm in meter, read out line by line
by Deacon s.. long prayer ON various
matters, one hour and half; sermon
of 100 to 250 pages; at close Of service,
baptism; sinners put on trial, confessed
before congregation. Minister O. bowed
right and left, no person stirring till he
had passed down and out Of the meet
ing house. Youth S Companion.

Hybrid Perpetual Roses.

A correspondent of Vick's Magazine
says that an admirable way to grow
almost any of the hybrid perpetual
roses is by pegging them down in the
garden. Plants grown in tNis way
furnish many more flowers than when
grown in the regular way. The
young shoots of each seasons growth
are pegged down in the fall, by using
small sticks placed often enough to
keep the branches fastened solid. In
laying the branches down, leave none
nearer together than eight or ten
inches; after bush has been pegged
down several years the space will be-
come crowded and then the old wood
can be cut away to give room for the
new branches. The new shoots should
never be pegged down when in a
growing condition, but when the wood
has ripened off and become dormant
in the fall is the proper time to do the
work. The rationale of the pegging
down process is this:
The rose bush has latent bud at
every joint of the plant, which is only
waiting for good chance to grow and
produce blossoms. Planted in the
ordinary way only those at the top of
the bush have much of an opportunity
to develop, but when laid down every
one of the latent buds has an equal
chance in the distribution of sap,
moisture and sunshine, and few OF
them will fail to grow and bloom. A
bed of roses grown in this way pre-
sents grand appearance, as the sur
face of the soil is nearly hidden by the
foliage, above which the lovely roses
are growing thickly. These bushes
need enriching often, as they are be-
ing forced so hard, and good dress
ing of well-rotted stable manure every
fall is a necessity.

Quality of Bran.

Millers take good care not to leave
-four in bran in these days, though
they also sell the bran as by product
for much more than it is worth to
feed. But in the olden times when q
good deal of -four was mixed with the
bran, and the latter was much cheaper
and also better than it is now, we
knew farmers who objected to having
the white, starchy flour show too
plainly either in bran or fine middlings.
The valuable parts of both of these
feeds in those days were the gluten,
which is rather dark colored. Now
the gluten is carefully saved, and most
of it goes into the new process -four.
Hence as bran has been increasing in
price, it has deteriorated in quality,
and is no longer so cheap a feed as lin
seed or cotton-seed meal or even as
oats where these meals cannot be OBJ
tanned. Boston Cultivator.
