cided to have the pupils of the pub
lie school in Quechee vaccinated I'M

"The Billings farm Of Woodstock
exhibited in special tent herd Of
young Jerseys that for individual ex-
cellence and high breeding can
hardly be equalled in the country. 1t
has been the policy and claim Of
Mr.. Aitken, manager of tho Bill
lings farm, that beauty of form
could be maintained " Without i'll any
way lessening the dairy quality, and
these animals and their ancestry will
go long way in proving this
fact"
ga pen of 30 Southdown sheep
was also shown by the Billings
farm. These appealed to all lovers
OF this kind of stock by their beauty
of form, health and evidence of high
breeding; 20 years of careful selec-
ton and breeding has developed a
flock of Southdowns Of which this
farm may Justly be proud, and are a
credit to the breed and to the state"

HEDGEHOGS IN VERMONT.
Number So Great It Is Thought
Farmers Are Raising Them.

1t is reported that more than 100
hedgehogs have been killed in the
town of Gaysville during the past
year, says Rutland despatch. The
state pays a bounty on the killing of
these animals and it is understood
that parties in Gaysville have been
raising and killing them to get the
bounty. Several other towns report
nearly 100 killed and it is believed
the same practice is in vogue in
many towns. The bounty may be
abolished at the coming session Of
the general assembly.
