Vermont and Charleston Exposition.

Vermont has limited resources as COM
pared with some of our more populous and
wealthy ncghbors, but there are few
states whose prospect of development is
more encouraging than our own, partic-
ulary with reference to the expansion
of our manufacturing interests and the
opening up of our mineral resources. Ju t
at this time. therefore, we cannot aft ord
to neglect any opportunity to call public
attention to our commonwealth and en-
phasize its advantages and attractions,
and we are particularly pleased to be able
To publish the communication from Editor
Arthur f. Stone editor of the st. Johns
bury Caledonian, which appears in another
column, dealing with the question of the
representation of our State at the South
Carolina Interstate and West Indian ex-
position now in progress at Charleston
Vermont is unable to devote funds TO
the purpose OF advertising the States pro-
ducts and attractions at this exhibition
inasmuch as no Legislative appropriation
pended from the State treasury without
the sanction of the Legislature. 1t ought
to be possible at comparatively small ex-
pense for some of our public spirited citi-
zens to arrange for some Vermont exhibit.
and that without expectation of rcim-
bursement by the legislature, which has
met with serious objection in the past,
even though such post-facto appropria
lions have hitherto been made.
We desire particularly to emphasize the
opportunity for manufacturers OF Yer
monts staple products to engage with
other citizens in some movement that will
give our State representation at this OK
position, and thus derive direct benefit
themselves while indirectly promoting the
interests of the entire State.

TEST FOR BOVINE TUBERCULOSIS
Misapprehension in Relation to Cases
in Randolph Discussed by Com
missioner Bell.
To the Editor of the Free Press:

A story is well in circulation, as coming
from the Randolph Herald, IT garding the
work of the cattle commissioners in test
ing a herd of is cows, owned by r. A.
Smith of Randolph, farmer furnishing
mill, foripatrons in the village.
Upon application OF Mr.. Smith for a test
of his herd Nov rs, Dr.. George Stephens
of White River Junction was sent to at
tend to it Dec. D. and the condemned ones
were killed the 18th inst.
On arrival the ten cows that had a tenn
perature sufficient to condemn them at
the time of the test, were shown me by
both the owners and the veterinary toge-
ther, save one, the owner said had been
driven to the butchers and killed through
mistake, which / doubt not is correct and
have his sworn affidavit that this was
afterwards taken back to the farm and
buried with the others, and no question
but what disease was found so he told me.
OF the other nine, seven were found to be
diseased in the lungs seven in the liver
four in the portal, six in the bronchial
glands, five in the pleura, one in the mes
enteric gland and two in the peritoneum
This would hardly indicate that only TO
an expert could the disease be seen yet
some are not satisfied unless all are bad
cases. as appears by the report regarding
one COW said to be left by the cattle com
mission and veterinary, ana pronounced
healthy and all right Mr., Smith called
my attention to this COW, which was in
good condition and had no appearance of
being diseased.
Mr.. Smith emphasized the fact all the
while, that he was suspicious of this COW,
| asked him why, but he did not tell M
she had been tested and condemned by DR..
Gay twice or three times within five or
six months, and that the last time was
only ten or fifteen days previous to DIR,
