If the Valley railroad officials had
to tramp through the mud at their
depot in Colfax they would wonder
how any one could ever get up cour-
age enough to go to the depot to
take the train. Last Sunday morn
ing it was impossible to get near the
depot without begging up over your
shoetops in the mud. The town
should demand that the railroad
have this place fixed up for the con-
venience of the travelling public.

prohibits any person from outside the
state leasing oyster ground for planting
and growing purposes. the statement in
the booklet recently issued by n. c.
Rowe & Co.. OF New Haven. Conn. in
which the firms large holding in Rhode

The booklet. which is on oyster oul-
ture in 20 feet OF water. refers 10 the
greatly increased holdings IN Rhode ISL
and OF the concern. and speaks OF the
holdings near Conimieut Point.
The firm lists its holdings and stock
IN these waters at something like $780,
which figures are interesting ones TO local
oystermen.
or course. while Connecticut or New
York concerns are prohibited from hold
ing Rhode Island oyster ground In their
own name, IL is we'll known that they
do go by means OF local agents taking
out the land In their own names. and
there is no doubt that this firm does so
here. but 81 is rather unusual. the local
oyster men say, for firms to advertise
the fact in this way.

Bristol's shops have already been in
spected by James A Shaw OF the state
board OF examiners, and Chairman VIII
liam Wathey. Jr.. and Secretary Thomas
f. McArdle are TO visit the Newport
shops this week. probably tomorrow.
There is a set OF 10 or 20 sanitary rules
which they expect 20 have enforced. and
a copy OF them Is supposed TO be posted
in each shop where the customers can SEQ
what they are entitled 10 get for their
money.
The rules provide that the shop must be
kept clean, must not he used as dormi-
tories. that -ools used must be kept clean
and razors. clippers, combs, etc. must be
sterilized with either 70 per cent alcohol
or 20 per cent formaldehyde
Towels must be laundered after each
use and not less than two clean ones
are 70 be used for each customer.
The cleanliness and temperance OF bar

fore all the shops are visited. as IL some
times takes several visits TO a place.
