Scales for the St. Louis Exposition.

carload of scales was shipped from
the factory last week to be used in the
various departments of the st. Louis ex-
position. The car was effectively plac-
arded with the usual large tags and had
besides a large banner extending half
way across the car which read:

LOUISIANA PURCHASE EXHIBITION
ST. LOUIS, Mo.
A month or two later there will be
shipped from the factory an exhibit of
scales which will probably be placed in
the Liberal Arts building. This will not
be as large collection as was sent to
the Worlds Fair at Chicago, but will be
a fitting and comprehensive exhibit of
one of Vermont's greatest industries.
