LICENSE IN VERMONT.
Pro hibition Es Abandoned Mt Special
Election. the State Adopting
Local Option Law.

Montpelier, VT, Feb. 5.-Vermont
on Tuesday. at special election, went
out of the list of prohibition states,
the majority for the acceptance of
the recently enacted local option high
license law being about 1000. Of the
246 cities and towns in the state 237
give a vote of 30,2O4 to 29,2S3 in favor
of the change. The places heard from
include all the cities and large villages,
and the remaining nine are small rural
communities, mostly in Rutland
county, which will not materially alter
the figures given. The result, while
gratifying to the license workers, is
not up to their expectations. Some
had predicted an affirmative majority
of $4,000.
The prohibition law which has been
repealed was adopted in 1852. Since
that time it's retention has kept Yer
mont in the position of the foremost
prohibition state, and this fact, it is
believed, will exert considerable in
f1uence upon Vermont's neighboring
states of Maine and New Hampshire,
which are now hesitating as to the
wisdom of dry laws.

Renovated Butter.

The renovated butter business has in
creased more than 1000 per cent in
Minnesota during the past six months
There were $1,000 pounds of the pro-
duct manufactured in the state in July,
1909, but since that time the business
has increased, until in December $751;
474 pounds were made. The output
since July has been 2,0S4,9 52 pounds
The manufacturer of renovated but
ter, under the oleomargarine law,
which went into effect July /. 1902,
must pay tax of one-fourth of cent
on every pound produced. Although
there were eight or nine renovated
butter factories in the state when the
law went into effect, ouly one manu-
featured any of the butter during July.
Another factory took up the making
of the butter in August, and the out
put for that month was more than
three times that of July. There are
now six factories in the state-two in
St. Paul, two in Minneapolis and two
at ruluth-and all are doing an i'm

Cats and Dogs.

J. NJ. Adams, one Of the agents OF
the Humane society of Minneapolis, has
conceived of unique plan in disposing
homeless or abandoned dogs and cats
until the requisite fund, with which to
open a regularly equipped home for
this purpose, is forthcoming.
For some time Mr. Adams has been
collecting these deserted creatures and
taking care of them at his own home.
AS they increased in numbers, Mr.
Adams found himself reduced to the
extremity of advertising for homes for
his forsaken pets.
As result, he has been receiving
numerous letters from Pipestone, Still
water, Watson and several other Mime
sofa towns, and even from South Dako-
ia, offering comfortable homes to the
dogs and cats, and even rendering mon
ey for the privilege of adopting them.
