"The secret, perhaps" says the

"Everything is exquisitely clean
and easily kept so. There is no
paint, no drapery, no crowd of little
ornaments, no coming into the

the dusty streets. And there is the
peaceful feeling of living in rooms
that can be turned into balconies

freely as do the scenes on the stage

Governor Talk.

This interesting political gossip
manated from the Burlington Free
Press:
1t is stated that some of the gen.
tlemen close to P. w. Clement have
been trying to induce lawyer Alexan-
der Dunnett, of St. Johnsbury, to
become candidate for the Governor
ship next year, but that Barkis did
not appear to be willing. The state
might go further and fare worse"
And The Rutland Herald adds the
following comment:
Somebody seems to have misled
The Free Press in this matter"
The Caledonian is authorized to
say that Mr.. Dunnett has no notion
of being a candidate for Governor and
will not be candidate. Furthermore
as intimated in the Rutland Herald,
Mr.. Dunnett has not seen Mr.. Clement
since the last campaign.
When the late Judge Poland was
approached by some Of the national
politicians and told that it was their
plan to run him for Vice-President
with the late Benjamin Bristow in
the memorable campaign of1S76, the
judge sagely remarked: "Well, they
might go farther and fare worse-and
they probably will. "-CaIedonian.

Some of the marvels of corn are
described in a Cosmopolitan article.
One Southern Illinois farmer more
progressive than the rest, it seems,
was induced to secure enough i'm
proved seed to plant three hundred
acres, as a result of his study of corn
in the Illinois College of Agriculture,
These 800 acres outyielded all of the
other fields on his farm more than
thirty bushels an acre; and, so far as
could be determined the fields of that
entire section yielded about thirty
bushels an acre. This increase OF
yield meant total gain of about g.
900 bushels, which represented cash
value of about $4,000 that season.
AS this increase did not represent an
increase cost of production the gain
was pure profit. In another case a
farmer in central Illinois became in
terested in improved seed corn
through the school Of corn Judging
in the Illinois Agricultural College.
He secured enough seed, grown by a
corn breeder, to plant eighty acres.
AS result he raised almost twenty
five bushels more an acre on this field
than where the ordinary seed was
planted
