FertiIizinq Salt.

The Vermont Experiment Station
at Burlington weighed ten clusters
of grass from two plots of land lying
side by side. From the unsalted
plot the ten plants weighed IA
grams, while from the plot which
had received 5000 pounds of salt
per acre, they weighed rs grams or
nearly twice as much.
Speaking of its effectiveness in kill
ing Hawk Weed, or Paint Brush, the
experiment station bulletin says,
Most of the weed was killed by
the application of 1000 pounds per
acre. Every plant of it was killed
by the application of 5000 pounds
per acre and the weight of the grass
was nearly doubled"
FERTuIzING SALT can be obtained
of c S. Page, Hyde Park, VT, at
$500 per ton in carload lots, and
$3.50 in less than carload lots put
up in cheap 10O-lb. sacks-no charge
for sacks. At this price the Salt is
delivered on board the cars at Hyde
Park. Low, special freight rates
have been arranged to all points on

Maine railroads in Northern Vermont.

There was silence. The crowd had
drawn close, waiting expectant for the

hands aloft, blinking at the revolver.
Little by little his eyes blinked oftener
and the lids lay shut longer. A sudden
trembling seized the man, and his arms
shook like aspens. A few seconds more

When the Kid, unasssted, had drag

and out of the door, Bunts again ad-
dressed the crowd:

in his soul as he marshaled up for re-
view->all the possible forces Of right
eousnesS in the city, sometimes Sleep
ing, apathetic, Indifferent, but always
to be reckoned with. And it even stirred
his soul that the world had not yet
grown deaf to the cry of children nor
its heart become cold to the sorrows of
the poor. Hope was strong within him
as he felt his life forces pulsing anew,
summoning him to conflict for human
rights, for city of God Oh the earth.
And he stretched out his arms toward
the people he could see through the
window, saying. Let us love one an
other and all things will be possible"
Thus John Gordon as he resolutely
faced his future enshrined the people
in his holy of holes as the current of
their lives bore him on, their destinies
irrevocably woven into his own.

n city council committee in Augusta
has recently started in upon task
that is likely to prove of magnitude
and difficulty before it is finished.
AZ the suggestion of Alderman Shell
don. who is always seeking to re-
form existing conditions. a commit
tee of six made up of three aldermen
and three councilmen was appointed
to examine the tax lists of the city
for the year 1908 with a view to Sc
curing an equalization of the burdens
of taxation among property owners.
Just what the committee may hope to
accomplish for the year for whic. the
tax commitment has already been
made it is not easy to see. but perhaps
their Investigations may lead to an i'm
provement for the future. One of the
Surest ways to get at what the cOmsiit-
tee is aiming for is to select an honest
and efficient and fearless board Of as
SCISSORS. who are not owned by any man
or any set of men.-Waterville Mail.
There is very general impression
among our citizens that Augusta has
lust that kind of board at the present
time. Certainly they have spent
months of time in going personally
and carefully over the property o. our,
CITY. and have the exclusive power un-
der the law of fixing the valuations
and assessing taxes thereon.
