Wash the asparagus thoroughly,
then cut the stalks to fit into q
quart jar lengthwise. Place them
in the jars heads up, filling each jar
as full as you can and still allow for
the stalks coming out whole when
cooked. Place the jar under cold
running water for five or ten min
utes or until the next jar is ready.

the water to boil one and one-half
hours. Now remove one jar at q

THE CROP PROSPECT.
At the present writing the crol
prospect is as follows: On few
farms the crop will be above thu
average, on about half the farms i
will be an average and on the re
mainder about three.fourths. Corr
and potatoes will average about thu
same as the hay crop, if We don
have early frosts. Fruit is an entir
failure in the valleys, but there is
good crop on the hills.

\ number of Vermont towns, and
Woodstock is one, are going in for
new school houses, but all for the
glorious cause of education it is to
hoped that other communities Will
not have as much trouble as Wood
stock has had. Five special town
meetings have been held since the
annual meeting, and outsiders can
imagine the amount of talk, discus
sion and song-and dance turns the
people have had to endure. Three
meetings were required to locate a
school building at South Woodstock
and on Tuesday the town voted for
the second time on the question
whe Their it should appropriate $780,
900 or SIS, 900 for new building
in this village. Other towns may
take warning. Not all, however,
are as free with time and breath nor
as crowded with citizens ready and
wflling to drop business and every
thing else and while away Il few
hours at town meeting. 1t is a
fortunate provision Of the law that
allows a meeting to be held only
once in two weeks. Woodstock,
however, did itself credit at the last
muster of voters and has broken
ground for fine school building

The Falry's Gift.

The butterflies in cloth of gold arrayed
Were once as white as snow;
BY magic was the transformation made
Long centuries ago.
The fairy queen whose jeweled cloak and
crown
Were dim beside her eyes
One summers day her chariot car drove
down
Whose steeds were BUTTERFLIES.
Some birds. her white winged subjects to
devour.
Pursued in rapid flight:
Each butterfly reposed upon flower
And thus escaped their sight.
"Oh blossoms pale" inquired the grate-
full queen,
What can do for you?
Would you be like the rose on yonder
green
Or like the violet blue?''
"Oh, make us like your yellow locks"
they said
And blushed at speech 80 bold.
The fairy stopped and kissed them where
they swayed.
And, 10. they all were gold!
