PETITION FOR INJUNCTION.
To Prevent Gas Light Company Pro-
ceedina With Its Dam.

The town of Dummerston through
It's attorneys, Fred ii. SpaWding OF
Springfield, VT, and w. Il. c. Stick
ney of Bethel, Tuesday brought a PEE
tition before Judge John II. Watson
solicitor, at Montpelier for an IN
Junction to restrain the Brattleboro
Gas Light company from proceeding
further with the work OF rebuilding
its dam across West river. The petit
tion sets forth that quantities of Ice
which form above the dam in the win
ter and are washed down IN the spring
lodge In the roads and damage the
highways so severely as to make the
dam a nuisance and a public injury
10 the town. ON the strength of the
petition Judge Watson issued tenn
porary stay pending a hearing on the
petition for injunction This hearing
was to have taken place tomorrow
but Clarke c. Fits and r. L. Water
man, attorneys for the Gas Light
company, and c. f. Thompson, clerk,
went to Montpelier yesterday and
reached an agreement with the op-
posing lawyers whereby the temporary
stay was vacated and the petition for
Injunction suspended. Work on the
dam, which is now being conducted
by large force of men, was only de-
layed a few hours, word of the agree
ment being received from Montpelier
Wednesday afternoon.
The Gas Light company claim that
they have settled in full with the town
of Dummerston for the damage caused
by the dam, and that II Is too late 10
bring Injunction proceedings after the
town agreed TO the construction OF the
dam. It is probable that the inJunc-
tion proceedings will not be carried
fnriher.

priced Brown Swiss cow, Mascot, of
which a writer in Rural New Yorker
says: "she is seven years old and has

any one of her class. She is one of
eight of the same breed just imported

Brown Swiss cattle are fast taking
first places in milk and butter quail

for beef raising, being unlike nearly
every other breed, possessing the ex-

of inferiority, ranking along with the
best known breeds throughout the

the most hearty and vigorous of any

Forest Firer and Local Sentiment,

Forest Fires and Local Sentiment.
Last year Maine. like some other
eastern states, had the most disastrous
fires in its history. A timberland area
of more than a quarter of a million
acres was burned over, entailing a loss
beyond million dollars. Drought, un-
precedented in severity, had prevailed
from April to June 8, and the forests
were in a most inhammable condition.
There were within sixty days 26O diff
ferent fires in the burned over districts.
Local sentiment is the most power
full agency for causing or controlling
forest fires. The fire risk to which cap
ital invested in standing timber is ex-
posed is at best under most conditions
very formidable hazard. 1t com
bines intiammabllity, exposure from
camp fires, smudges, careless smokers
and railroads and scanty means of pro
tection-all the qualities which insur.
ance companies avoid in other risks
With the local population Indifferent OF

is almost hopeless.

ed and encouraged forest deterioration
is inevitable. An inferior species OF
tree will usurp the ground and post
pone for years, if not forever, a repro
duction of the original forest, so thai
forest fires not only mean immediate
and present financial loss in the de
struction Of timber and young growth
but they also so alter conditions tha
inferior grades Of forest take the place
of better growth.
