MUTUALS IN FAVOR.
They are Getting the Business
Old Line Fellows DistanCed.

The mutual seem to be getting the
cream of the business as is shown by
a much larger per cent of losses in the
old line companies both when COM
pared with the premiums received and
the total amount of insurance carried.
This is probably due to the fact that
the old time companies are compelled
to make their good risks pay pre-
MUM which will permit the compan-
les to carry a much less desirable
line of business at less profit. The
chief reason, however, lies in the greater
economy of the mutual companies

Don't fail to investigate the State
Mutual Insurance Company of Hank
inson, N. D.. and their plan of doing
business both for fire and hail. They
saved the farmers of this state last
year thousands of dollars by paying
all losses one hundred cents on the
dollar with sQpall assessment. They
will protect you again THE year with
a much smaller assessment than last

MIssrATEMENr CORRECTED.

An item has gone the rounds OF the
press Of the State 10 the effect that Eu-
reks county had fallen of $4,000 dur
ing the past year in the valuations Of its
taxable property. This is incorrect.
For the purpose Of correcting this mis-
statement the SENTINEL has obtained
from the County Assessors roll, which
has Just been turned over to the Treas
urer, the following valuations Of real and
personal property 10 this county for the
year 1901:
Real estate. 81, 10l, 7l2 W
Personal property ........... olo,oos %
Total valuations ..........Sl,6lz,Vol 90
The amount Of tax to be collected IL
divided between the State and county %
follows:
State tar .$12. 1896 Al
County tax. N''''o %
Totaltax .S40,2 49 rs
The valuations Of the real and per-
sensl property Of this county for the
year 1900 were 81, sol, 1855. "a, and this
sum included poll taxes amounting 10
s64s. 1t will readily be seen that in.
stead Of the valuations falling off in Eu-
reka county $4,000 during the year
1901, they have increased $ll0, S63.1l.

disease, we would say that the mild
cases merely exhibit hard, dry cough,
with slight tenderness on pressure of
larynx, but no elevation of temperature
or loss of appetite. Other cases In con-
nection with the cough had tempera-
lures ranging from 103 to LOG, with dis
charge from the nose of a muco-purp.
lent character, with loss of appetite,
difficulty in swallowing and extreme
exhaustion, and in some cases filling
up of the intermediary space with the
formation of assesses. Some cases
were also accompanied with pneumonia.
We are now having as a complication,
and which is dueto any depicting or de-
bilitating disease, a condition termed
purpura hemoragia (dropsy). This
condition is troublesome disease
to treat, and often fatal. We have
found that perfect hygienic conditions
in the stable-cleanIines ventilation,
drainage and the use of disinfectants-
greatly mitigate the severity of the at.
tack. If there is no loss of appetite or
elevation of temperature in the horse
only the cough-the animal is fit for
light service"

Wonderful Stone Found in Orange.


Eugene S. Whitcomb of Montpelier
has in his possession a wonderful stone.
1t weighs 600 pounds and is shaped like
the body of a large bird with a long
neck, and head that looks as though at
ole time it had been fashioned to take on
the face of man. This wonderful stone
was dug up from the farm of Hezekiah
Whitcomb in Orange about two weeks
ago. The stone was evidently a monu-
ment placed to some Indian chief in
olden times as it rested on slab roughly
hewed. Underneath the stone were
found several pieces of flint, a stone
tomahawk and half a dozen different
things that looked as though they might
have belonged to the dead chief The
stone is gray marble, and was In among
granite boulders, but was the only piece
of marble in this particular field. One
side is worn rounding, while the other
side appears to have wing pfotruding
The stone was very nearly buried and all
that could be seen was the mead sticking
out of the ground. Mr.. Whitcomb had
plOwed around it for years until he
finally decided to dig it up. As he shov.
elled the stone appeared to gain in size
His amazement grew In proportion
Relic hunters believe that it may be the
monument of people which was here
before the Indians.

End of the vermont" Receiving Ship.
While the decision of the navy depart
ment as to what disposition shall be
made of the receiving ship Vermont, now
stationed at the Brooklyn Navy Yard,
has not been announced, it is considered
probable that the hulk will be towed out
to sea and burned. The vessel has been
in service at the yard for many years,
and the announced decision of the de-
partment that she is unfit for use and
soaked with disease germs marks the
closing of record of usefulness. The
Vermont brought with her to Brooklyn
one of the most glorious records of any
of the old sailing frigates of the navy, of
which the Franklin, Wabash. Independ-
ence and Richmond are types, and she
bears the scars of many a conflict. The
Columbia, which is to replace the Yer
mont, cannot accommodate as many men
as the Vermont, and hereafter the depart
ment will have to make other plans for
handling new recruits at the navy yard.
1t is thought that permanent barracks
will be built on shore.

Bradstreets Tell of Conditions Prevail
ing During Last Week.
Inquiry in Vermont through Brad
streets Burlington representative re-
veals the following conditions:
The general business situation through
out the state is favorable. The hay crop,
which is staple product, is practically
secured and is very large. Although the
season is late the weather has been good
for agricultural interests, and farmers
are encouraged with the outlook.
AT Burlington the lumber business and
prospects are good and prices are firm.
General business, both in jobbng and re-
tail lines, is active, and collections are
reported fair. AT Barre serious diff
Guilty between the granite manufacturers
and stone cutters, which threatened to
close the stone sheds Thursday, Aug. ],
was arrested by an agreement which was
reached Wednesday night. Business at
that point is active, stone cutters are in
demand and there is an opening for
more stone cutters. At st. Adams about
100 mechanics In the shops of the Central
Vermont railway are out of employment,
owing to strike. The strike has unfa.
vorably affected the retail business,
which has been further restricted in con-
sequence of haying operations. Condi-
tions. otherwise, are favorable. st.
Johnsbury reports labor well employed,
retail business is good and collections
fair. The same may be said OF Randolph.
At White River Junction ordinary condi-
tions prevail except in timber and timber
lands, where there is a strong movement
on account of purchases made by large
manufacturing interests. Manufacturing
business at Brattleboro Is fairly good,
concerns running full time. Retail trade
is good for the season, collections fair.
Late weather has tended to retard bust
ness somewhat. At Bellows Falls man
ufacturng business is fair and this con-
dition applies to other lines there. In
Essex county business in general is good,
labor is well employed and well paid.
Collections good.
