Mrs. Bugbee heard the burglar and a.

found against him the court ordered his
discharge.
The Vermont Marble company has Just
completed the purchase of the George G.
Underhill marble property at Dandy re-
Gently bought by Mr. Underhill. IL is
understood that Underhill received a
price considerably in advance of that
paid by him for the property. The prop
erty is situated on the east side of Dam
by mountain, half a mile above the
valley. The property is believed to be
very valuable and it is supposed to con-
tain the same vein found in the three
quarries now in operation in the vicinity,
the marble will undoubtedly turn out to
be the same quality of white building

Death of Mrs. Cushmal

DGatn Oh uAFss CubnmaAe
Mrs. Kate Poppy Cushman, who
died at her daughters, Mrs. Emma Ken
dall's, June 6, was born in Norfolk, Eng
land, in 1880, and her parents came to
this country when she was five years old
and settled in Sutton. In 1851 she was
married to Ezra II. Cushman of Water
ford and always lived there until his
death in 1888. Since then she has made
her home with her daughter, Mrs. Emma
Kendall She was the mother of seven
children, all of whom survive her but
one: Charles E., of Waterford, who lives
on the home farm; George L., who is a
member of the firm of I. II. Ballou & Co.
of Boston; Frank H., of Rhode Island;
Mrs. Kate E. Morse of Concord: Mrs.
Lizzie NJ, and Mrs. Emma L. Kendall,
of this place; and Herbert O.. who died
in 1899. Mrs. Cushman was loved and
respected by all and will be missed not
only in the home circle, but by all her
neighbors and friends. She has been a
member of the Waterford church for
many years. She was an active member
of the Christian Endeavor society and
also a member of the W. c. T. U. and
Sunday school OF this place, and of the
Ruth Lodge D. of R. of Barnet. All was
done for her that loving hearts and kind
hands could do in her last sickness, by
her children and neighbors. Her funeral
was held in the chapel Wednesday after
noon and was largely attended. Charles
Calderwood from st. Johnsbury took
charge and Rev. Mr.. Kilbourn from
Barnet ofhciated. The bearers were her
two sons, Charles E., and George H
and her two sons-in-law, Eugene and
Clarence Kendall. The chapel was beau
titully decorated with potted plants and
ferns and the floral offerings were
numerous and beautiful, which showed
the love and esteem with which she was
held. The bereaved family have the
heartfelt sympathy of their many friends
here.

Water Lily Incense.

The latest fad of fashionable people
since the outbreak of war in the far
east is the use of the favorite Japanese
perfume named the water lily incense,
says the New York Press. 1t is COM
monty used in all the homes of Japan,
as well as in the Buddhist temples, but
it has only recently been introduced
into the United States and is now be-
ing sold in all the Japanese stores in
the big cities. 1t is done up in little
cakes and burned like the famous Chi
nese joss stick, SO well known in many
American homes, but it has far more
delicate and aromatic fragrance. Doc
tors say that it is specially valuable
as a disinfectant in the sickroom, for
which purpose it is extensively used
in Japan.

w, b. Eastman VIII Pay for Hyomei
Treatment IF Ii Fails TO Cure
Catarrh.
So pronounced has been the relief and
cures following the use of Hyomei in
catarrhal troubles, that in nearly every
city and village all over this country the
leading druggists have advertised that
they would pay for Hyomei themselves
ii it did not effect cure. In this city, W.
B. Eastman has publicly announced in
the CALIFORNIAN and other papers, use

been an enormous demand for the Hy-
ome1 outfits, and many unusal cures
have been made.
and complete and that it cures bv merely
breathing and not by drugging the stom-
ach, no doubt has had considerable inf1u-
ence in creating confidence in the treat

ticle of air that enters the head and
throat and goes to the lungs. is charged
with healing balsams that kill the germs
OF catarrh and soothe and heal the irri-
tated mucous membrane.
w. b. Eastman urges all who are sub
lect to catarrh or catarrhal colds to get
Hyomei outfit from him and use it at
his risk. No matter how skeptical you
may be, you caunot dispute the fairness
of this offer. Use Hyomei for a month.
If, at the end OF 80 days, you can saw to
w. B. Eastman 1T did not help" he
will refund your money without q question
or argument. This is his way OF remov-
ing all doubts as to the powe of Hyomei
to cure catarrhal troubles. He believes
it the strongest evidence that can be
offered to thecurative powers of Hyomei.

BARNARD MANURE.
4 Tremendous Annual Waste-Legu-
minous Crops and stock Feeding.

4 Tremendous Annual Waste-Legu-
minous Crops and stock Feeding.
A well kept manure heap may be
safely taken as one Of the surest indi-
cations of thrift and success in farm
ing. Neglect of this resource causes
losses, which, though little appreciated,
are vast in extent. Waste of manure
is either so common as to breed in
difference or so silent and hidden as to
escape notice.
1t has been figured out that if one
third of the manure in the United
States is wasted the total annual loss
would be about sos, 466, 900 Annually.
If the farmer, instead of selling off
his crops, feeds them to live stock on
the farm as far as possible, a large
proportion of this fertility is retained
on the farm, and if the business of
stock feeding is carried to the point
where feed is purchased in addition to
that grown on the farm a considerable
addition may in this way be made to
the fertility of the farm at an almost
nominal cost, since it is assumed that
feed will not be bought unless it's feed
ing value will at least pay it's cost.
The growing of more leguminous
plants such as beans, peas, clover, tlu-
pines, ETC., as a means of increasing
the fertility of the soil is strongly
recommended both from theoretical
and practical considerations, but the
leguminous crop is best utilized when it
is fed out on the farm and the manure
saved and applied to the soil. The
greatest profit is thus secured and near
ly the same fertility is maintained as
in green manuring. The farmer should
mend his system so that the barnyard
manure will be as well cared for as any
other farm product. Loss from surface
washing, teaching, fermentation and
decay should be guarded against. Then
the feeding of richer food will mean
richer manure and better and cheaper
crops.
1t is hard to persuade the farmer to
abandon time honored practices and
adopt methods with which he is I'M
familiar He also hesitates about
mourning the necessary expense of
building suitable receptacles for the
storage of manure, frequently assum-

News and Notes.

Profit in poultry as a side issue is
illustrated by the statement that the
bulk of the eggs, 70 per cent Of the
whole amount, comes from small focks
owned by wage earners.
Comparatively few of those who pay
daily visits to the grocer and the mar
ket man realize that 100000 farmers
are engaged in supplying the other TO-
100000 people of the United States with
food.
Roberts suggests $3.50 as conserva-
tive estimate of the value Of the ma
nure produced during seven winter
months on a small farm carrying four
horses, twenty cows. fifty sheep and
ten hogs.
In making cata1pa plantations one
should be sure to secure the variety
speciosa, whose native home is on the
Wabash river, as there are other species
that are worthless on account of ir-
regular and crooked growth.

When strikes occur in Russia there
is no delay in dealing with them, says
the Worlds Work for June. Troops
are modified at once. The printers In
Moscow, for example, struck last au-
tumn. The strikers marched in pro-
cession along q few streets, clamoring
for shorter hours. They complained
that they had been compelled to work
overtime and that no compensation had
been given for the extra labor. General
Trepor, chief Of police, issued notice
that any man refusing to work would
be excluded forever from Moscow.
This stopped the movement. Such no
tees have stopped similar movements
elsewhere.

Arsenate of Lead For Curculio.

Many New York plum and cherry
growers have long desired less la
borious method than the Earring"
process for fighting curculio. Poison
sprays have been recommended and
tested for many years, and some think
they succeed in controlling the insect
in this way. Last season several
growers made thorough tests of arse
nate of lead, and the results were very
gratifying on both plums and cherries.
1t was used at about two pounds in
fifty gallons of water or bordeaux mix
ture and applied thoroughly two or
three times soon after the poisoning
period. Recent experiments in other
states show that this poison is more
effective than paris green and similar
poisons in fighting the codling moth.
Thus the indications are that arsenate
of lead will come into more general
use.-M. Y. Slingerland.

WASTE OF BARNARD MANURE.

WASTE OF BARNARD MANURE.
ing that this is greater than it really is.
AS Roberts states, 1.-THE new idea that
the manure should be as carefully pre-
served from unnecessary waste as any
other product of the farm is hard to
put in practice after having for forty
years stored the farmyard manure I'M
der the caves upon the steep hillside
which forms one border of the running
brook
1t is to be feared that the introduce
ton of commercial fertilizers has not
been without effect in increasing the
apparent Indifference with which this
valuable farm resource is so often re-
garded. Too many farmers lose sight
of the fact that, as a rule, commercial
fertilizers should supplement and not
entirely replace the manurial supplies
