A curious weather condition existed

pronounced that many sat on the fence

it rain not over 10 feet away.

AGAIN THE FOREST Worm.

Some of the newspapers of the state
are assuring their readers that the forest
worm plague is only passing phenome
non and will do no permanent dam
age; others are denying that the cater
pillars are in any way responsible for
the maple sugar shortage this year,
attributing the latter to the backward
season and other unfavorable conditions
of the weather.
The assertions of the first class easily
can be refuted by each tree owner for
himself An examination of the branches
of fruit and shade trees will reveal the
clusters of eggs deposited by last sum
mer's hord of worms. On this point the
Brandon Union notes that
The tree cut down in front of the resi-.
dence of ex.Gov. Ormsbee "Wednesday showed
that our naples are absolutely loaded with
eggs which it is suppos' will become forest
worms. Half of the twigs on the tree are sur
rounded with IA band of the eggs, containing.
probably, lust four dozens. If one out of
every dozen matches out the Brandon crop
alone will be worth tjOOO-to get rid of.
And to those who take any stock in the
stories that no permanent damage will be
or has been done by the worms and that
the maple sugar industry suffers nothing
from them, we call the attention to the
following from Woodstock correspon-
dent:
1t is claimed that no town has suffered
greater damage than Woodstock from the
caterpilaTs, which were so numerous in tho
maple park fronting the Woodstock Inn that
It became necessary to turn the hose upon
them, and bushels of creeping insects could
have been gathered from the ground under
meath. The villagers fear that these stately
naples will fail TO renew their foliage the
coming season. Henry Cushing, one of the
towns leading sugar makers, claims that one.
half of his orchard is dead, and is accordingly
disposing of his buckets and utensils. Carlos
Adams claims a loss of two thirds of his fine
oIchard, and SO sapless are The trees that no
foliage is again expected. p. c. Kendall has
cut $50 of his sugar trees, which are found to
be perfectly dead.
With these facts in view no effort
should be spared to at least reduce the
numbers of the voracious worms.

STATE DEPARTMENT OF FISHERIES
AND GAME.

The state fish and game commissioners,
John W. Titcomb of st. Johnsbury and
Horace w. Bailey of Newbury, have
received numerous requests for fry to
stock private fish reserves, and have
sent out circular letter correcting this
misconception of the object of the state
hatcheries. Only public waters can be
so stocked. No fish legally can be sold.
Last fall the state assembly passed an
amendment to the state fish laws practical
ly declaring all privately posted streams
to be open to the public on May |, unless
such streams have been stocked with arti-
ficially Matched or reared fish at the eX-
pense of those who do the posting. 1t will
be seen, therefore, that in order to retain
a trout preserve it must be artificially
stocked. The state fish hatchery cannot
sell fry or fngerlings for private
waters; they must be bought from COM
mercial hatcheries, of which there are
number in Massachusetts and Rhode
Island, viz: II. F. Hurlbut, East Free
town, Mass; Plymouth Rock Trout Co,
Plymouth, Mass; l.. B. Handy, South
Wareham, Mass; Brookdale Trout Co.,
Kingston, Mass; j. w. HoXsie, Caro-
lima, r. C.; Chas. A. HoXsie, Carolina,
Il. l.. as announced by the commission
ers. who hasten to tell the many farmers
of the state, having streams upon their
lands which they wish to post, where
they can buy material to stock them in
order to post them, when if properly
posted they would stock themselves.
The necessity of this useless expense
comes from the change of law eff
fected by these game commissioners,
especially Mr.. Titcomb, last fall, after
weeks of lobbying in the legislature.
1t is aimed of course at the farmers
of the state, practically to prevent them
from protecting the fish upon their own
land, right that for years they have
enjoyed, and very largely exercised.
This posting law, of great practical ad
vantage TO the farmers of the state, and
for the protection and consequent in
crease of trout, especially on the mount
ain and hill towns where trout streams
abound, has thus been, in part, nullified
by Mr.. Titcomb for his own personal ad-
vantage, and possibly for the personal
advantage of few others who want to
fish on other folks property without pay
ing for the privilege.
We believe that the farmers and the
great body of other fair minded citizens
of the state can be depended on to undo
this attempt at blackmail upon a large
class of the property holders of the
state, as soon as the opportunity is pre-
scented to them, and at the same time
get rid of Mr.. Titcomb and his expensive
and more than useless fish hatchery.
In the meantime we would suggest to
tie many victims of this law of Mr..
Titcombs, who read the REGISTER, that
to comply with the law they can obtain
trout fry or fingerlngs from Mr., Silas l..
Griffith of Dandy, Rutland Co, Yer
mont and we presume will be furnished
by him at reasonable terms.

in use is unpleasant, to say the least OF
it. 1t should be borne in mind that the
increased travel is largely made up of
strangers who are visiting our county,
and their impressions will be largely in
nuenced by the roads over which they
ride. State Highway Commissioner Wall
makes few suggestions on road-build-
ing in circular letter printed elsewhere
in this Issue. The amendment to the
highway law made by the last assem-
bly, requires a change in the system OF
road expenditures heretofore in vogue,
and to give the law its greatest effect for
good, it must be carried out to the letter.

The lingo St. Louis Globe is surprised
by what it calls the "remarkable rush
for pensions" by the volunteers who
have recently been mustered out, which
is thus referred to by its Washington cor
respondent:

whelmed with applications for pensions now
being filed by soldiers who served in the
war with Spain. The demand is beyond all
eype Citations.
The regiment which has achieved the dis
tinction of having the largest number of APP.
plications for pensions thus far is the Thirty
fourth Michigan. The number of pension
applications so far received from this res j.
n ent is $50, or over one fourth OF the en-
listed strength of the regiment. The second

regiment, which has In $50 applications
Then follow the Thrty-thrd Michigan, the

The number of pension applications from
the Second Massachusetts, which Is the fifth

staff of the District of Columbia regiment are
among the APP phcants for pensions.
OF all the regiments mentioned the only two
which were under fire were the Second Mas
sachu etts and the Thirty. fourth Michigan.
| The second Massachusetts had n number
killed and wounded, and the Thirty fourth
Michigan had four men killed at Aguadores

principal cause upon which pensions are
asked is malaria.

Since this was written we have seen a
statement that of some of the western

short time nearly every volunteer who
saw service in Cuba, where the lighting
was all done in week, will be on the

From "The Philippine Islands and
Their People," a record of personal OBJ

Wooster, professor of zoology, Univer-
sity of Michigan, published 1898, we
make the following extracts, throwing
some light on the character Of this now
unhappy people:
The civilized Filipino certainly has
many good qualities. The traveller can

often to no little expense in order to ac-
commodate some stranger who has not
the slightest claim on him 4; and he never
turns one of his own race from his door.
If cleanliness is next TO goodness he has
certainly much to recommend him.
Hardly less noticeable than the almost
universal hospitality are the well regu.
lated homes and the happy family life
which one soon finds to be the rule
Children are orderly. respectful and
obedient to their parents.

mother, at the same time wishing then
good evening. He then makes an obes

The civilized native is self respecting

it is stretching the truth to say that hi
