by the names of Partridge, Ransom, and
Jackman of blessed memory, of Buell.,
Dodge, Lander, Seymour and Williams, of
Paulding and Carpenter, of Ward and
many others, not forgetting the greatest
hero of them all, our own brave aud hon
ored Dewey, learn lessons of obedience to
duly constituted authority, of patriotism
and loyalty, and of earnest and unswerv-
ing devotion TO those great principles of
constitutional liberty, the strength and
support of every free aud Republican form
Of government.
Col. Haskins spoke at some length of Ad-
miral Dewey's wonderful achievement,
and in closing said:
And now, when Dewey hall shall have
visible existence, and this green mount
shall be adorned by its massive walls Of
beautiful proportions, arch and portico,
those who shall gather here in the long
years TO come, to learn lessons in the sci
ence of war and in the arts of peace, will
find patriotic inspiration, not only in these
everlasting hills and the winds of heaven
that fan their topmost crests, but in the
name and deeds of Vermont's grand hero,
Admiral George Dewey, brave in war, wise
in diplomacy and profound in statesman
ship.
After the speechmaking the crowd turn
ed to the grassy land where Dewey hall
will stand.
A plat about 20 feet square was roped off,
and into it stepped Capt. Clark, President
Brown, the trustees, the faculty and the
veteran Janitor Evans Of the university.
President Brown handed Capt. Clark a
new spade, which he took, and pushed it
into the ground with his left foot and turn
ed a big sod in a style that made the farm
ers cheer this man of the sea. Then the
rest of the party took their turns at the
spade, and amid the wild cheers of the
crowd Jim" Evans turned a sod, too, and
then carefully wiped off the spade, which
will be kept in the university museum.
Thus was broken the soil for Dewey hall.
The signal was given to the artillery
boys, and II guns, the Admirals salute,
awoke the echoes of the valley.
President Brown sent this cable to Ad-
miral Dewey after the exercises were over;
Dewey, Manila: Congratulations, ami
versary; excavations begun, hall.

Prospect of an Industrial Boom a
Bethel

There seems a prospect of the long de-
layed industrial boom at Bethel. A we'll
known Leominster, Mass, firm of excel
lent commercial standing proposes to
transfer its leather manufacturing bust
ness to that town. 1t has at present two
plants, at Watsontown, Pa, and Leomin-
ster, the one for tanning and the other for
finishing the leather. The plan is to COM
bire both plants at Bethel. The firm esti-
mates that its business would employ $50
hands with a weekly payroll of $1,000. 1t
is understood that their exemption from
taxation is the only question remaining to
be settled negotiations conditional upon
the exemption having been already con-
cluded with the owners of the plant. In
response to a largely signed petition the
Bethel selectmen have called a town meet
ing for Monday, May 8, to act upon the
question of exemption.

Barre Buys Water Plant for sIsO 900.

Barre Buys Water Plant for SI3O, 900.
At special meeting of the Barre city
council the result of all the late executive
sessions was "sugared off" At one time
the city of Barre could have purchased the
Barre Water company's plant for $4,000,
but on account of certain tactics INDUCED
in by some, the chance was let slip, and
Mr.. Goodhue got the under hold. Although
no records of the meeting are to be had at
the city clerks office, and although all the
aldermen and the mayor have been as mum
as oysters, yet it is practically a certainty
that they purchased the Barre Water com
pany's plant for the city for $3.50, 900.
What do the citizens think of the price
AS they have to vote upon the bonds to
raise the purchase money they will soon
have an opportunity of expressing their
opinions to the officials they created, and
the officials who are acting for them in
this matter. If the majority of the voter,
think the price all right, then the rest
might just as we'll agree with them; but w
doubt if the majority will think it all right

stable Manure.

Facts about stable manure, or,
rather, reshly-stated conclusions,
from an important part of Bulletin
So, Mass. experiment station, c..
Wellington. OF the three common
conditions OF barnyard manure,
half-rotten manure is the most
valuable, and well-rotted manure
the least, because of their relative
amount of nitrates. Manure should
be kept packed away from the air
as tightly as possible, and if rotted
should be plowed under just before
planting, otherwise several months
before that time. The more litter
used in the manure, the greater
liability to loss of nitrogen. The
use of bedding material free from
decomposable organic matter is a
means of protection against loss Of
nitrogen. AS a matter of fact,
many intelligent farmers long since
reached the conclusion that manure
is never worth any more than i'm
mediately after it is voided, and
that the sooner it can be got onto
the land the better. Of course, the
sooner this is done the less the
liability to loss of nitrogen, irrespec-
tive of the kind of bedding used

FOR THE FARMER.
The Toad In the Garden.

To most people toad is nothing
but an unsightly reptile which is to
be Stunned as much as possible.
The superstitious think it venomous,
but studies made at the Hatch ex
pertinent station show that it is not.
The toad is a reptile, TO be sure,
but it is one that is not only harm
less, but is of great use to the gard
ner, as every worm or insect that
comes within reach is devoured
greedily. Centipedes, caterpillars,
blister beetles and bugs of every
kind are equally welcomed by the
toad. He uses them all alike. They
wonder within reach and his long,
glutinous tongue flashes out so
quickly that the eye can not detect
it and the victim is gone. The toad
swallows once or twice, winks his
eyes placidly, seems to smile and is
ready for as many more of the same
kind as may come his way. Half
q dozen toads in a garden will keep
it free from most of the ordinary
garden pests. They are easily
tanned and spend the day in some
shaded nook along the fence or un-
der cabbage leaf, coming sedately
forth at night to find their food.
Where the good qualities of the
toad are understood he is always a
welcome visitor, as his stay is made
as pleasant as possible.-Farmer's
Voice.
