6rattleboro Has No Use for TRADING
Stamn.

The trading stamp system. which has
proved 50 obnoxious in other places, is
getting but little announcement in Brat
teboro and nearly all of the merchants
have entered into an agreement to have
nothing To do with IL. The board OF trade
was formed in Greenfield largely for the
purpose of getting rid of the trading
stamp, and in reviewing the work at the
end OF the year the president said that
the board had done good work IL 1t had
accomplished no more than to throw of
| this parasite. The following from the
editorial columns Of the Springfield Re
publican. will show how the trading
stamp is regarded in that city.
The fight against the trading stamp
nuisance is now well under way Petit
lions circulated among the business men
have received the signatures of almost
all to whom they have been presented
practically all the rest have said that
they would press for action through the
board of trade Among the signers of
the petitions are not only those who have
not been committed to this thing but
many who have inadvertently been taken
in They recognize now. all the more
clearly from their experience. that this
thing is leech on legitimate business
growing fat from what IL abstracts from
It's veins. without Offering a single ser
vice in return The labor unions have
realized this in other cities: they appear
to Toe waking up to the fact here some
body must pay for this thing; the dealer
| cannot do it and continue in business
consequently II comes in the end from
the consumer. In the meanwhile the
promoters of the stamp enterprise are
making "A most desperate effort to estab-
lish themselves here. The forces Of
legitimate business should make "A sturdy
fight now-without decentralization
against them. The sooner. the better
the chances for success

Mrs. Powers, Humane Agent. May Go to
keene,

Mrs. Jennie b. Powers of Brattleboro
is wanted by the Keene Humane soc-
ETY. TO leave Brattleboro and make her
headquarters in that city, and she is as
sured of remuneration in case she does
so. Learning of this the Two-Eyed Man
or the Burlington Clipper, which pub
llshed a portrait sketch of Mrs Powers
a few weeks ago says: surely we are
not so calloused as to allow this noble
woman to leave the state when she Is
so needed here. If the people of the ate
know their duty they will move the Brat
tleboro society to the foundations rather
than lose her The condition of humane
work is just reaching that point when the
grip must not be lost. Hundreds of dol
lars have gone out of this state to Dowie
the CRATER evangelist. whose work in
New York has made lean-minded people
abhor him, and surely the pennies ought
to turn in the direction of Kidding YER
mont of the stigma of being behind all
the other states of the union in the con-
dition of its animal slaves If the 5000
readers. of this paper would save one PEN
ny each that would mean $50 for Mrs
Powers and II they would give two cents
each II would mean $3.50 for her to use
in the pursuit of miscreants who belahor
o nd starve the lower creation. The Two,
Eyed Man will give 100 pennies to head
the list, not that he might not give more,
but that he wishes to keep the proffered
offering down to the penny limit so no
one can have an excuse not to con-
tribute"

Bran Five Cents of-otherwise Market
Continues Strons-Fresh Eggs BRING
35 Cents a Dozen

Bran is five cents off this week. but
aside from that everything in the local
market continues strong although there
is but one other change to report
Fresh eggs have advanced two cents
this week, retailing now at 80 cents a
dozen. It looks as though the prediction
made in the market report a few weeks
ago that eggs would bring 40 cents a
dozen by holiday time was well founded
Cold storage eggs are plentiful at 81
cents dozen, but fresh eggs are difficult
to get. p.

The deer hunting season closed Satur-
day About 40 animals were slain in the
ten days of hunting i'm Wndham county.
our Grafton correspondent gives "A list of
the nine persons who shot deer i'm that
town. The returns are incomplete from
Windham but II is probable that six were
brought down in that town. The figures
for Londonderry are six, but three other
animals were secured Just over the town

from the other towns is believed to be as
follows: Jamaica 4, Wardsboro l. STRAIT

Guilford line by Representative John e.
Gale of the latter town, who, on a trip to
a back pasture which he owned carried
along his rifle. He brought down his
buck by single shot through the head
The successful hunters in Marlboro Sat
urday were Erwin Mather whose buck
weighed 2S4 pounds and Dickman Ryder,
who was satisfied with specimen
weighing 275 pounds. MIR. Ryder shot
the buck in an orchard near his house
The result in the entire state has not
been computed. The official report
states that "a deer were shot in Plym-
outh, Windsor county, which has usually
been considered the banner deer hunting

turned Friday after hunting in Plymouth
bringing two bucks, one "A large. hand

Howard stated that the reports from
Plymouth were far from correct and that
he was positive that over 40 deer had been
slain within the limits of the town, while
