THE MEDBRER.


Brattleboreans have begun to won
der this spring if the flavor of aspara
gus, like that of oysters, has begun t.
disappear altogether. The specimen.
of the vegetable brought to marker
this year have been lacking in the
taste that has always made this spring
vegetable so much in demand. 1t is
not, however, that the customary flavor
has disappeared. The supply of as
paragus this year has been poor and
slight and there has practically been
none from the local markets. Much of
that sold at present comes from points
as far distant as California. The less
developed supply from the gardens
near the town, is poor in flavor and
lacks even the advantage of size that
is to be found in that which comes
from the West and South. The deal
ers say that another year with weather
conditions better suited to the growth
of asparagus will restore all its good
points.

Not since the palmy days when Brat
tlcboro supported semi profe ssional
baseball team has there been such an
epidemic of the national game as flour
ishes in this town at present. Nearly
every youngster who is able to throw
stone across the street may be seen
with some sort of glove tied to his
belt, and the number of contests which
daily take place between mines repr'-
senting different schools, associations
and localities is legion. Many devotees
of the game who are unable to play
during the six working days of the
week avail themselves of the seventh
to satiate their craving and no doubt
derive much physical benefit from the
exercise. Even dumb animals are be-
coming interested in the game. 1t was
only last Sunday that harmless look
ing mooley COW became so interested
in contest that she inadvertently de
voured the collar and necktie belong
ing to one of the players. 1t is said
that there was an emerald flavor in her
milk for several days afterward.

If the late Thomas Thompson, who |
so generously bequeathed the interest
of his estate to the towns of Brattle- /
boro and Rhinebeck for the benefit of I
needy seamstresses and for "kindred /
charitable purposes, " could know what .
a hard time this town is having in
securing the hospital which is to
bear his name, he certainly would
rise from his grave and take matters
into his own hands. The Meddler has
become heartily tired of referring to
this institution which for nearly a
year has had a site awaiting it, but
when at a loss for topics, he cannot
help making thrust at those who are
so peratingly slow in starting its
erection. Just why it should take so
ong to secure p ans for a hospital and
award the contract for its construction
5 a myster. in the minds of every one
n Brattleboro. If the end of the earth
hall come by far reaching volcanic
at the time prophecied by so
many scientists, this town will be bur
ed in lava with hospital existing
'nly in the minds of those who have .
aith in Messrs. Minot and Bradley.
1t last accounts the eminent DR.. Cobb '.
vas unable to give his attention to i
he hospital plans on account of the
Illness of his wife. Everyone in town
5 unanimous in wishing her speedy
ecoyery.

Not Bad idea for BrattleborO Merchants.

An increasing number of establish
ments, says the Philadelphia Record,
have adopted the rule of making spec
ial efforts to stimulate trade in the
duller seasons of the year. One adver-
tiser said he could count on all the
business he could do at the holiday
time, but what he wanted was to in
duce people to buy at other times. He
found it profitable to pay unusual at
tention to his newspaper advertising
in the summer months.
