REAL PROFIT.SHARING.

The new departure in the conduct
OF the so-called company stores of the
Vermont Marble company will be noted
with interest. This company has
three stores, one each at Proctor,
West Rutland and Center Rutland, at
which most of the employees of this
great concern trade, as we'll as others
not employed by it. The stores have
been conducted primarily for the
benefit of the workmen, goods being
sold at a much narrower margin of
profit than is the case when sold by
private stores for their own advant-
age. None of the employees have
been required to patronize these
stores, unless they found it to their
own benefit to do so. The actual
profit of the three stores last year
deducting reasonable amounts for
rent, interest, etc., was between 8 per
cent and per cent. on the total sum
invested, which would hardly be &C
counted a profitable mercantile rec
ord
Beginning May 1st, the company
has ennered upon a new system where
by the net profits of the stores at the
end of the year are to be divided to
the last penny among the patrons of
the stores who are employees of the
company at the end of the year, on
the basis of their volume of trade at
the store. The company furnishes
the capital, takes the risk of loss, and
IL there is profit the men get 1t ex-
ceptiug a fair allowance for rent and
per cent interest. In effect, there
fore, the Vermont Marble company
guarantees merchandise at actual cost
to it's employees. A committee OF
workmen, representing the various
nationalities is empowered to verify
accounts and to look out for the pa
irons interests. II any prejudice has
arisen-which could only arise from
lack of information-becaus this
company has conducted company
stores, there can now exist only the
fullest appreciation for the generosity
and kindly spirit shown by the Yer
mont Marble company toward it's en-
ployees, as they have been shown in
80 many other ways in the past

Make Report on Frank Landslide.
Messrs. r. w. Brock and r. G.. Nc
Cohnell, the biologists who were sent
to report on the cause of the landslide
at Turtle mountain, which wiped out
the town of Frank, have submitted a
preliminary report. Mr.. Mcconnell
states that the part of Turtle Mountain
which gave way was about half mile
wide, over 1000 feet in height and
from four to five hundred feet thick
at the centre. He estimates that be-
tween sixty and eighty million tons OF
rock fell, the debris of which covers
almost two square miles. The slide is
attributed to the steepness of the
mountain and the shattered condition
of the rock. This was due to "fault-
ing'' and crushing of the rock during
the process of heavy mountain build
ing. Heavy rainfalls percolating
through the assures tended TO open
them still further. The accident was

likely fastened by a creep in the coal
mine, which caused a jar. The noun
tain where the slip took place is very
badly fractured and is now slipping
down continually in small pieces.
There is danger of another slide as
some of the fractures extend back
five or six hundred feet from the face
and if these were to open another
hulk would come down. Mr.. McCon-
nell thinks that there will always be
more or less risk in living in Frank
and that the people should move as
soon as possible.

the greatest fires Laconia, N. H., ever

acres. The fire caught from an insig-
nificant blaze in the boiler room of the
81. II. Wood hosiery mill. In fifteen
minutes the flames were beyond con-
troll. A brisk wind carried the fire to
the finished lumber plant of Boulia &
Gorrell company and then to the
works of the Laconia Electric Light
