LOVE WITH ONES WORR

A man passed through my stable
the other day, and looking at the
cattle feeding there, he said, 1 like
to see row of nice cattle. They
look good to me. That is the true
farmer spirit. You may put in your
whole life at farming, and in the end
have lost all, or nearly all, the hap
piness simply because you do not love
your calling. To succeed one must
have more than pecuniary motive
in view. He should be able TO enter
into sympathy with his COWS, sheep
and horses. He must see in them
something more than dumb beasts, to
be treated as stability as possible and
finally turned away for a song.
The man who can go through q
series of years on the farm and not be
better man, kinder of heart and
more sympathetic to all the helpless
creatures about him is hard-hearted
man. The sickness of his cows and
sheep, the ailments of his horses and
other farm animals, are all we'll cal
culated to awaken in him a kindly
feeling which will lead him to do all
in his power to alleviate their suffer-
ings. Some men are so brutal with
their stock that they fail to derive
the profit they should from them.
They are themselves made harsh and
cruel by their treatment of their
cattle.
1t is the same way with other farm
work To get the most out of it one
ought to love the everyday things
which come in the line of his duty.
/ know men who do not even cut
down tree, especially live one,
without sense of personal loss.
These are the true farmers. Farm
ing is more than blowing, sowing and
gathering into barns. 1t is living.
The more we realize this the better
work we will do and the more sue
cessful we will be. Mirror and
Farmer.

IN NEW YORK

Malone, June 6.-The drouth in
Franklin county is assuming serious
proportions. In the towns of West
vile, Burke and MORA farmers are
feeding hay to their stock every day.
In Malone measures have been taken
to curtail the use of water The
street sprinklers have been taken off
and people requested to discontinue
sprinkling lawns. This morning the
smoke was sitting here and at Sara
nae Lake. The atmosphere became so
laden with smoke that it was almost
unbearable. In st. Lawrence county
COWS that could not be bought two
months ago at $50 each are selling at
$40 head. Salmon river is very low
and great numbers of dead fish are
floating down from up south. Forest
fires are somewhat abated.

GREEN no USE SOLD.

Ernest Jacobsen has sold his green
houses and florists business to Emslie
Brothers, the Barre florists, and the
new owners will take possession ON
July 1. Mr.. Jacobsen has been in
business here for the past nine years,
and by hard work and excellent SER
vice has built up large trade. For
the first four years his establishment
was located at the rear of Christ
church and since then on the opposite
side of the street Mr.. Jacobsen will
remain here for few weeks to close
up his affairs. He will then go to
San Francisco to locate That city
is Mrs. Jaoobsen's home and she is
now visiting her parents there. The
fact that his wife's home is in Cal
ifornia is why he has decided to leave
Montpelier. The new owners are
well known florists and this purchase
will give them practical control of
the business in both cities.

CROPS Il FAILU RE.

New York, June 6.-Bradstreet' s
weekly review of trade today says:
Weather and crop conditions neces.
state further reductions in early exu-
berant estimates of yield while in la
Dor matters the number of men on
strike shows the futility of the efforts
of Cancellation and arbitrators. Whole
sale trade is still seasonably dull. The
situation, as whole, however, is still
far from favorable With all due al
lowances, the heaviest wheat yield on
record is still possible. and average
crops of corn, oats and cotton may be
realized. Price readjustments, where
low quantities are necessary as in iron
and steel, go on without disorganiza-
ton. Drought in New York has hurt
cereal crops, hay and the dairy inter-
ests, and forest fires have added to the
damage from this source. Cotton con-
ditions are reported by the government
to be the poorest on record at the date,
but part of this low condition may be
neutralized so far as the ultimate yield
is concerned. The hay crop of the
east will, it is feared, prove failure.

At THE RANGE.

Over forty members of Company II
went to the rifle range on Friday af-
ternoon and tried their hands at ia r.
get practice with the new guns. Cap
tain Burnham, inspector OF rifle pra c.
tice, accompanied the men and CAV O
some timely suggestions as to the us o
of the Krag Jorgensen S and the fitting
up of the range. The range has been To-
Gated at the left of the East Montpe-
lier road with the line of sight nearly
parallel to it and the target about a
mile from Barre junction. The two
hundred, three hundred, four hundred,
five hundred, and six hundred yard
range marks are located on successive
knobs, the last one being near the cor
ner of the Country Club grounds. The
arrangement at the target is different
than formerly. The target tenders
stand in a pit dug for them nearly ten
feet deep. Two targets are used,
which slide up and down on a pulley
affixed to heavy wooden standard.
When one target is up and in use the
other is down in the pit so that stick
res can be put on over the bullet holes.
All of the work on Friday was at the
two hundred yard range which allows
only arms end shooting and at tar
get representing man lying prone on
the ground. Although the guns were
new to everyone the work on the
whole was very satisfactory even if
no very high scores were made. The
boys were unanimously of the opinion
that the guns were accurate and that
all it needs is enough shooting to get
accustomed to them.

HORRIBLE MASSACRE.

Monastir, European Turkey, Sun
day May 81. The story of the massacre
of the inhabitants of the village of
Smerdesh, south of Lake Preba, by
Bashi Bazouks has reached here. 1t
appears that on the arrival of the
Bashoi Bazouks, Ohakalaroff' band
of insurgents withdrew to the noun
tains without sustaining any loss.
AS no rebels were left in the village
the inhabitants experienced no anxiety
until, suddenly, at sunset, the Turks,
who had completely surrounded the
place, commenced bombardment.
Infantry also fred. Finally the vii
lage was set ON fire and Turks began
a general massacre. About 300 houses
were burned and upwards of 200 per-
sons mostly women and children were
killed. The women and girls were
murdered while resisting outrage.
Whole households were slain. Some
of the villagers, who sought escape
in fight, were captured and had their
ears and noses cut off before they
were butchered. One band of sever,
al hundred in the mountains consist
ing of forty women and children were
caught by soldiers in ravine and
were illed after horrible treatment.

If your kidneys are working with

so violently that an Inflammation will

lazy the kidneys will become diseased,
Alcohol congests the kidneys with
blood and retards their activity.
There is no alcohol in Kidney Wort

of all harmful sediment from the
body. The Tablets soothe and heal
the kidneys when they are irritated
and infamed. The cure the kidney

If there is any doubt in your mind
as to your kidneys put small amount
of your urine, on rising, in a bottle,
and lot it stand twenty four hours.
If you find it milky or cloudy, if
brick dust settings or small PARTICLES
float in it, your kidneys need instant
attention. No matter how many
other remedies you may have tried
and found useless, remember DR.. Pet
tingill's great modern remedy, Kid
ney- Wort Tablets, is as far in advance
of old-fashioned liquid remedies as
the modern trained surgeon is super
ior to the ignorant travelling 'bone
setter" of thirty years ago.

RECEPTION 10 SENIORS.

The junior class of the Seminary
rendered "A reception to the members
of the senior class including the grad
yates of the commercial department in
the chapel, Friday evening. The re-
ceiving committee was composed of
the officers of the junior class, r. o.
Virgins, president, Miss Maude Boyce
vice president, G.. A. McIver secre-
tary, and A. w. Hewett, treasurer.
The program consisted of piano Sc
lection by Miss Grace Joslyn, reading
"Jessica First Prayer, by Miss
Page; selection "a Little Boys Es-
say on Necks" by Miss Boyce; and
an instrumental selection on the man
dolin by Mr.. Keegan accompanied by
Miss Mason. After the program re-
freshments of ice cream and waters
were served.
The scrubs who compose the first
two year classes at the school put in
their handiwork as usual. They sew
cred the electric wires from the SEM
mary building so that it was necessary
to use kerosene lamps at the reception.
Upon the return of the seniors to their
quarters tables, chairs, bookcases,
beds, coal hods ETC., were found piled
in the middle of the room a perform
ance known as the stacking of rooms.
The feminine "scrubs" procured all
the clothing from their senior friends
rooms so that many of the girls felt
this morning as they attended chapel
in their best attire like so many of
those unfortunates who have lost all
the clothes they own by fire with the
exception of those worn. 1t is hard
on the seniors but they find consola-
tion in the fact that "they always do
it. {" 1t is freshman trick.
