MINING IN MEXICO
 ATTENDING DELAYS
But Frank Kirkland Believes There
 a Great Future.

According to Frank Kirkland who has recently returned from a visit to the property of the Rialito Gold Min ing company in which he with others, are interested, and which is located near Clifton, the capital of the state of Sinaloa, Mexico, American capital is fast assuming control of the many Mexican government is encoura ging such investment in every way possi- ble and officials of the republic lend every aid to make the investments secure. The mining fields of Sinaloa he predicts, will be one of the great producing districts of precious metals within a few years.
 It was on the 16th of last September that MT. Kirkland left Phoenix on his journey into Mexico, and at that time he planned to be gone a little over two months. On his trip he reached Guay- mas without mishap, but at that point where he had to take a steamer for Altata he encountered delay. The day before he arrived a boat had left the port for his destination, but for sixteen days no other boat made the trip. The reason for this was the heavy storms that pass the port at that period of the year, the equinoc- tial storms.
 The seamen would be willing to un- dertake the voyage but the owners Of the steamer lines do not care 10 run

LIBRARY AFFAIRS.
Loan Of S1.5OO Made to the Trustees

a special meeting Of the board of elder
mon WAS held Tuesday night at Which
all the aldermen except Aldermen Par

The first matter to come up for consid-
Grafton was the question of a sewer in
Last avenue. &. w. Brownell appeared
in opposition to the sewer because of tina
large amount of vacant land which he
owned and which he claimed would not
be benefited. The petition for the sewer
was signed by practically all the other
property owners and resolution author
izng the work was adopted.
A resolution was offered placing tho
sum of l.sOO to the credit Of the library
trustees as n temporary loan. the sum to
be repaid to the city in three annual in
stnllments of 500 each. w. j. Van Pat
ten SPOKE of the need of additional funds
for this year and said the trustees would
much prefer an out and out appropriation
to a loaH bccause it was impossible to tell
what the expenses Of operation Of the
new building would be.
The mayor said he was the author of
the present resolution and that he offered
it as a loan because the estimated ex-
pcnse of operation of the library was sucA
that the money could easily be repaid.
II. l.. Ward also spoke of library af-
fairs and said that he could see no
harm in the passage of the resolution as
presented. He thought. as did the may
or that it might act rs n check on the
trustees and in that way be a good thing.
President Taft said the proceeding was
unusual and he doubted II it was legal.
He said the mayor drew it up, argued
it and ii passed it went tn him for appro-
val. He said this was an unusual par

The resolution was adopted by a unani-

would be perfectly proper for the city
to accept the deed Of the Ethan Allen
park which provides that the property

OUR ENORMOUS EGG CROP.
Over Forty-Three Million Crates are
Produced Annually.

The egg and poultry earnings of the
United states for one recent year amount.
ed to sNO.oOo.oc0. says Franklin Forbes in
success Magazine. Such an amount Ia
sufficiently amazing as it stands. but you
don't get its fun significance until YOU
study the relative fnaicial value of other
''industrials. We hnd for instance. that
the total value OF the gold, silver. wool
and sheep produced in America during the
year in question was 1912, 43i.3l5 The sugar
production Of the country the same year
was $20.0D,o0O. That part of the wheat
crop used at home, which many consider
the most valuable Of all our agricultural
products, was worth 500, ,0Oo. The great
American hog. rs consumed at home and
abroad. brought sIS6, 9s4.90o. The value OF
the oat crop was $7s,9s4.90C. Potatoes
grown in the United States were valued
mt nearly as large sum as were the oats.
The product of tobacco plantations was
estimated to be worth s3j.579. 225. Cotton.
the dethroncd king of staples could show
only $25a,16l, $40. as against the magnificent
earnings of its feathcred rival. The crops
of fax, timothy, clover, millet. and cane
seeds. broom corn. castor beans. hay
straw, and so forth, couldn't, all told,
come within a measurable distance Of
many millions Of the poultry earnings.
The hens eggs produced in this country
annually would iii 43,127.0oO crates. each
of the latter holding 800 eggs also a.

eggs would be nearly 900 miles long.
Furthermore, it would take l07 SIS such

a BIG SUMMER HOTEL IN VERMONT

1t was to be expected that the visit Of
the Vermont Fish and Game League
to Bluff Point for the purpose of holding
its annual midsummer meeting and ban
auet at the Hotel Champla would lead
some of the members Of that organizat ton
to inquire why the Vermont shore with
it's superior attractions should not have
a magnificent hosiery in keeping with
it's beautiful surroundings
That the discussion took something OF
practical turn is indicated by the fact
that one gentleman of means. who is in
tercstcd neither in transportation lines
nor in the promotion of the growth OF any
particular point on the Vermont shore.
said he would be one of n dozen men to
put $4,000 into the construction of a
hotel such as the Champlain valley is
entitled to on this side OF the lake, and.
moreover. IL additional capital were re-
qured, he would gladly loan the ASSOC
terms.
1t is no secret that this subject Is be-
ing discussed by n number OF New York
capitalists who have had some experience
in connection with hotels, and 1t Is not
improbable that in the not far distant
future Vermont will have n summer ho-
tel that will vie with those erected on
the west shore of Lake Champlain.
There Is really every reason why tour
lists should make their headquarters on
this side of the lake during the vacation
period. We have passenger train facil-
tiles far superior to those afforded the
traveller on the opposite side of the lake,
the number of trains coming and going
here during the day and night In every
direction being far In excess of that on
| the New York shore. Moreover the side
trips to various points OF interest that
can be arranged with this as a central
point is a subject Of frequent as well
as favorable comment. The splendid

THE FAIR PROJECT.

The proposition to establish a fair in
Chittenden county is being favorably re-
ccived, and in all probability a meeting
to discuss the undertaking will be called
in the not distant future. A we'll known
resident in discussing the matter said
in this section interested in the breeding
Of fine horses who would unquestionably
be ready to cooperate, as would the
breeders of fine cattle and other live
stock.
The fact is appreciated that the Or
ganization of a drivers club in connec-
ton with the construction of a track
and the erection of buildings for horses
in training would help to make Burling-
ton the excellent market for fine gem
tlemen's drivers 1t used to be, and farm
ers throughout the country would thus
be given the advantage OF ready sale
for fine animals as there is growing
demand for good roadstcrs.
Inasmuch as in accordance with Sen.
ator Proctors suggestion the agricul-
tural experiment station has been look
ing into the possibility of reviving the
Morgan horse industry it would be a
favorable time to start a horse show
and agricultural exhibition in this
county, the combination of interests be-
ing as favorable for this undertaking
as it would be unusual. Let our horse
breeders and other raisers of live stock
take an active interest in this proiec,
and thus promote n project which
will materially increase their own
profits us well as be of benefit to the
agricultural interests of this whole sec.
ton. The transportation lines are ready
to do their part toward inception OF
this project and Burlington business
men can also afford to put their shoulders
to the wheel.

REvIvING MORGAN HORSE INTER-.

We have already discussed in these
columns the project of restoring the
Morgan horse to the position formerly
held. and spoken of the efforts of Uni
ted States Senator Redheld Proctor in

the path of the undertaking now seems
to have been removed, and in all prob

of the agricultural department, and he
was able to inform the directors of the
| agricultural station that the money
was ready for the work as we'll as to
state the terms upon which the general
government would cooperate with the
station in the Undertaking
Those terms are practically the same
as those which were adopted in con-

horses at the agricultural experiment
station in Colorado. The agricultural
department provided twenty mares and
a stallion for that station and furnish
cd a groom in addition. the station to
maintain the animals and have the pro-

1t is expected that the Vermont ag-
ricultural station will start with ten
or dozen animals at the most. and
the number may be increased later. IL
the results of the experiment seem to
warrant such step. Both Senator
Proctor and Director Hills have re-
ceived applications from numerous
owners of Morgan animals. so that
there is no Likelihood of a lack of Nor

RURAL POPULATION DIMINISHING

For considerable period it was
customary to refer to the abandoned
farms in Vermont as well as elsewhere
in New England as though the migra-
ton of people from the rural regions
to the cities was movement peculiar
to this section of the country. More
over certain individuals INDUCED in
learned disquisitions on the subject
of the rocky and forbidding soil of
New England as one OF the explana
tions of the movement OF population
from the farming regions in this Sec
ton to more inviting fields.
The fact Is now coming to be rec
ognized, however. that even the most
fertile prairie commemorative are suf-
fering from the depletion of their
farming population as well as those
States whose fertile soil Is plentifully
sprinkled In spots with gravel and un-
precious stones. The census taken In
Iowa this year, for example. shows
that the Hawkeye state has suffered
loss of 1900 during the past Ave
years, and that this loss was almost
entirely confined to the rural districts
with their fertile farms and abundant
harvests. According to the enumera-
ton every city OF over 5000 popuia-
ton had gained from 1900 to 1908, the
| total increase being $1,000. In all
towns under 5000 in population each
and the farming districts there was a
total loss Of $4,000. the result being a
net loss in population throughout the
State as a whole OF $4,000.
Somewhat similar results were real.
