Mrs. James b. Frost, nee Lucy Can
dace Burnap, died last Thursday at
the home of her son above West river,
after partially recovering from her last
winters illness. She was the elder of
the two children Of Deacon Asa Bur
nap and Ellen Elizabeth Carter and

1884. Her brother died in infancy and
her mother when she was about ten
years old. Her father married again
and lived successfully in Dummerston.

daughter being the fruit of this mar
riage. Mrs. Frost was educated at
Leland Il Gray seminary and Glenwood
Classical seminary She learned the
dressmaker's trade and worked with
Mrs. Dickerman and Q. j. Pratt. Sc
we're illness compelled her to give up
this work. She returned to her faith
er's in Newfane, where she was mar
ried March 20, 1851. Since then she
has lived over West river, in Brattle-
boro. Mrs Frost was of a retiring
disposition but rich in love and sym
pathy for those who had the good for
tune to be her friends. For several
years in poor health and shut in
she never lost her natural cheerful
ness or strength of will. Uniting
with the church in girlhood, she has
been in constant sympathy with its
work, and has allied herself earnestly
with many good works, especially with
the rebuilding Of Mt. Holyoke college
Her ideal was to be a perfect wife and
and she has been devoted
friend to her family. Her influence
has been appreciated and she has per-
petuated the faith of the Huguenots by
for duty regardless of conse- /
luences. She leaves a husband, two
sons and brother and six grandchil-
1ren. The funeral was held Sunday I
afternoon. Rev. II. r. Miles officiating. .

The efforts of the logmen to remove
the jam which blocks the river above
the toll bridge have been watched
with interest this week by large
number of people, and many have ex-
pressed surprise at the cheerfulness
with which the hardy looking river
men stick to their task, working from
daylight to dark seven days in the
week and receiving no extra pay for
overtime. 1t is life full of danger
and hardship and one which compare
lively few people would care to live,
yet the logmen are happy lot and are
much more likely to be found singing
than grumbling. Arising about 3 30
in the morning they breakfast at 1
o'clock, have Woodworking meal at

essary they work until midnight and
then lie down on bed of straw only

THE MEDBpER.


No one who has taken the time to
glance at Wantastiquet this spring can
have helped noticing the unusual
beauty of the foliage which adorns the
slopes of the mountain. The rocky
ledge opposite the lower part of the
town, which generally presents such a
barren appearance, is this year Gov
cred with vines and young shrubs and
looks as fertile as any other part of
the mountain. The unusual verdure
may be due in part to the weather
conditions but it owes some of its
beauty to the fact that there have been
no forest fires this spring to nip the
underbrush in the bud and kill the
young trees which begin life every
year. Now that the hand of the In
cendiary has been withheld it is hoped
that the extinct crater which is said
to exist in Mine mountain will not
take it into its head to erupt.

TO KILL cHlNcH BUGS.
Experiment Station 'YilI Send Infect
ed Bugs on Request.

Saltwater, Okla, May 20.-The
chinch bug season is beginning and
as in former years, the experiment
station at Saltwater, Oklahoma, will
send infection to those who request
il, A little more than a year ago a
circular was sent out to those 20
whom infection had been sent during
the season asking for reports Of re-
suits. About one-half OF those re-
plying were of the opinion that the in
lection was OF some value in reducing
the number Of bugs. Where the trials
we're made during wet weather, the
results are usually satisfactory
since the infection spreads rapidly
under these conditions. Trials made
during dry weather usually resulted
in failure.
OF other plans used for preventing
ravages of chineh bugs, the planting
of trap crops seems to be the most
effective. Losses due to chinch bugs
may be materially reduced by some
such plan or by use of the well known
barrier method; dragging a pole
along furrow over which bugs are
crawling is a very effective plan.
