STREETS FLOODED.
Rivers Flowed Through Western
Part of CITY

In various parts of the city last night
the streets We're so badly flooded that
in places it was almost impossible to
cross them. The worst place was at
First West and Fourth South. where
the water flowed several inches deep
over the entire width of the street.
Other streets were in nearly as bad a
condition, and the residents complained
very bitterly because steps were not
taken by the proper authorities to get
rid of the superfiuous water, and some
claimed that it was a negligence ON the
part of those who should look after
such things.

Parry & Evans of Poultney have in
vented an ingenious machine for wash
ing dishes. The machine has a gearing
on one side for steam fitting, by which
power it is operated. Just below is a
pipe connecting with the basin through
which it can readily be filed, and on the
under side is waste pipe, by which the
soiled water can be disposed of quickly.
At the top and on one side is a receptacle
by which the dishes are put into the
machine. and underneath is a table which
receives them after one revolution of the
cylinder, thoroughly washed, as during
the process large number of brushes
have washed and rinsed each dish
separately. 1t is estimated that 20O0
dishes of any shape or size can be wash
ed in one hour by this machine

dividuals see persons of wealth seeking
the very conditions of dreariness and
isolation which they have taught them
selves to abhor, it is natural that they
should pause and ponder upon the
lessons to be drawn from this movement
from the cities to the rural districts.
1t is not to be expected, nor even de-
sired, that the flow of new blood from
the country to the city should cease, for
individual tastes will continue to impel
their possessors in different directions.
But there is good and sufficient reason to
believe that the example of so many
people of wealth engaging in farming
will have a marked tendency to check the
rush to the city Of that class who seek
merely to escape from what they have
learned to regard as the dreariness of
country life.-Burllngton Free Press.

Now Is the time that the rider who
has allowed his machine to stand IN a
corner, untouched all winter, discovers
what negligence has cost him. Some
machines that were put away before
being properly looked after Will be found
in condition calculated to fill their
owners with disgust If the machine
does not run true it should be taken
apart and every piece closely examined,
paying especial attention to the Joints
and points of bearing. Kerosene is a
good thing for cleaning, as it cuts rust
and dirt quickly. Kerosene, however,
is not good for the enamel, and great
care must be taken not to let any of it
get on the rubber tires. There are a
number of different preparations for
cleaning the nickel parts. In cleaning
the cups and cones of the bearings a
great deal of care should be taken.
Spokes must also be carefully looked
after and left loose. With tires there is
little to do except initiate them and see
If they are all right. If defective be-
cause of having been left fiat they should
be repaired by an expert. Care should
be taken to see that the tire is firm on
the rim, for if the cement has weakened
the tire may shift and cut of the valve
stem the first time the wheel is used.
Often it is found that tire will not hold
air after standing around all winter. In
majority of cases this is because there
Is trouble with the valve. Often the
valve will be found leaky because of the
plunger in it being clogged by dust.
A bristle is helpful in such cases, though
often the pump will force the dust
away. If a rider is inexperienced it is
best to leave the "toning up" of the
wheel TO a repair man.-Exchanoe,

The example of people of large wealth

consists essentially of an old engine
in which the boiler does duty as a re

sucked from barrels as required, and
there it is kept in agitation by n West

STATE COMMISSIONER.

The act of 1892 to promote the con-
struction of permanent roads has thus
far almost entirely failed of accomplish
ing its purpose. This law levies five
per cent state tax which is reapportioned
among the several towns on the basis OF
the mileage of their roads. Poultney' s
tax under this assessment is 5000 93, we
! receive back by the apportionment on
mileage 1892 81. Middletown pays S206.-
70 and receives back 1925 81. Rutland
city pays $i,275 40 and receives $2G6 80.
These funds we're to be kept separate
from the proceeds of the twenty per
cent. tax and used exclusively for the
construction of permanent roads. But
it appears that there is only here and
there a town which has not used this
money for ordinary repairs. Where in
Poultney is there anything to show for
the $4,000 which the state treasurer has
put into the hands of our highway au-
thorities for the substantial betterment
of our roads?
The legislature last fall sought by an
other enactment to make the law effective.
This enactment provides for state
highway commissioner who is to have
supervision of the expenditure of the
moneys derived from the five per cent.
tax. He is early in the year to notify
each town of the amount that it will be
entitled to under the apportionment of
the year. He is to issue circular letter
to the town commissioners stating what
kind of work will be considered perma-
nent, and giving advice as to material to
be used. methods of drainage, construc-
ton of culverts, etc.
The towns can draw their apportion-
ment of the state funds only on condi-
tiOns that sum equal to that amount
has been expended in compliance with
the provisions of the law.
There may be discovered some way of
evading the law as it now stands, but it
is not readily apparent. Ignorance of
what constitutes a permanent road can
no longer be urged in justification of
disregard for the law.
The selectmen are expected TO advise
with the town commissioner and share
with him the responsibility of eXpending
in an honest and iudicious manner the
funds in question.
We have right to look for better
things in the matter of road repairing
and construction. And if we do not get
it the public is in a mood TO inquire why
