Mr. BRADLEY RETIREs.
The Humble Servant Of the Public
for Halfa Century.

Everybody in Woodstock and most
of the visitors here during the last
fifty years know George Il. Bradley,
and know and remember him best as
part of his familiar lob team"
He has now retired from business,
taking life easy, and in talk the
other day he gave an interesting
sketch of his life, sea-going expert
ences and his several narrow escapes
from death.
Mr.. Bradley was born in Wood
stock over eighty years ago and few
of his boyhood acquaintance are
still living. In 1874 he decided it
was time for him to pull stakes and
see a little of the world and he
shipped aboard the whaler Hibernia
Of New Bedford, commanded by
Capt. Nathan Simmons of Woodstock
ancestry. For him it was fairly
eventful voyage, which took him to
the northwestern coast of America.
The Hibernia struck 5000 barrels of
oil, but while whales were spouting
at every point of the compass it was
her i'll luck to bring home only 400
barrels.
The whaling ground was over
10000 miles from home, the voyage
lasting % months, and if there had
been short cut- hank-to-- Weodstools
then George would have quit the
in a hurry.

haps there is an exaggerated idea
among farmers of what may be ex-
pected from it.
The method of soil incubation is
the discovery of Dr. George T. Moore
of the United States department OF
agriculture. A few years ago it was
found that all soils in which legu-
minous plants-peas, beans, clover,
Alfalfa, etc.,-will grow, contain
nitrogen-fxing bacteria, and that
certain soils contain these bacteria
in great numbers. AS the result of
their work nodules or dubious
growths are formed on the roots Of
these plants, in which nitrogen is
stored up and used, the decaying
roots also feeding succeeding crops.
This discovery induced the belief
that these legume bacteria could be
artifcially produced, and indefinitely
multiplied and introduced into the
soil by means Of cultures. The bu-
reau of plant industry of the depart
ment of agriculture has been work
ing to this end, and the results of it's
experiments are now given for the
use of the people.
Three years ago the government
sent Mr.. Aitken some Turkestan
alfalfa seed, inoculated, for expert
mental growing here, and the crops
have prospered each succeeding sea-
son. What he is after is a variety
Of alfalfa that will flourish in this
state, as for live stock food it is the
king of forage crops.
Last year Billings farm received
IL different kinds of clover seeds,
, part of which was inoculated. These
were planted in II different quarter
acres, and the inoculated plants
were found to have grown faster,
larger and were more rugged.
This year Mr.. Aitken will try six
or seven new kinds alfalfa. He has
been very successful thus far and
has several acres of land reserved on
which he is continually doing ex-
detrimental work with the assistance
of the department of agriculture.

valoped, and third case reported is

Hackett's home, about mile and a
half from the village. The boy died
Monday night.
An eighteen-month-old child of
George Watson, CT West Lebanon,
N. H., is very ill at the Junction.
and his case is considered hopeless.
AS precautionary measure, the

are no cases at West Lebanon and
no new ones at Lebanon.

ABOUT SOIL INCUBATION
Some Successful Experiments Made
at Billings Farm.

A brief account of the plan of Col
Billings and G. r. Winslow to ex-
pertinent with "nitro-vapor," OF
nitro-bacteria, aroused considerable
interest among many of The Ages
readers. 1t appears, however, that
this is not the first local trial of soil
incubation, as Manager George Ait
ken of Billings farm has been using
the nitro-bacteria for several seasons
on few acres of land reserved for
experimental work.
Mr.. Aitken, who as chairman of
the state board of agriculture is es-
pecially interested in advancing the
value of Vermont's farming lands,
says very positively there ia no ques-
tion but that the incubation of the
soil is success in promoting the

Ludlow May Have New Industry.

Mark Johnson of Waterbury and
John Peterson of Quincy, Mass, ex-
pert granite and marble cutters, were
in Ludlow recently talking up the
matter of establishing agranite shed
in Ludlow. They want an associa-
ton there to build 4ox6o shed, and
equip the same at a cost of $4,000,
the association to own and rent the
same to them for ten years, giving
an option of purchase after five
years. These men would move
there with their families and employ
from twenty-five to twenty-eight
men at the high wages his class of
labor commands. Such employees
must necessarily come from the out
side and add so much to this busy
community. The granite shed would
be run by ten to fifteen horse power
electric motors used on air compress
sions, travelling crane, etc. The
question is asked if Ludlow could
afford to vote power for few years
to aid so important an industry.

On the 18th of September, 1874,
heavy sea struck the Hibernia,
stove the boats and doing other dam
age. George was washed overheard
and barely escaped drowning. This
was the first time the hand of death
reached out for him and missed, to
be fooled again on several occa-
sions.
From the northwest coast the
Hibernia headed for the Sandwich
Islands, where boats were bought,
Capt. Simmons giving an order on
the owners for $500 in payment for
repairs on the ship.
On the way home around Cape
Horn, when off the mouth Of the
River LaPlate, on the South Ameri-
can coast, George was struck by
lightning while at the masthead, 65
feet above the deck. He fell sense
less few feet when his leg slipped
between the crosstrees and he hung
there until relieved from below. For
Fl days he was unable to do any
thing, but at St. GATHERINGS, where
the Hibernia stopped, he was helped
along toward recovery by the sur
geon on an Italian man-of-war, and
he got on his feet again after awhile.
The next port was home and at the
end of the voyage George had nine
dollars coming for his able SER
vices.
George went on another whaling
voyage-having a better 'lay" than
fo'mast hand-that of ship-keeper,
shipping this time from Province
town, Mass, on the fore-and-aft
schooner Robert Rakes, under Capt.
Swift.
George saw some big whales while
blubber hunting, has thrown a har-
poon and helped kill a few. AS he
says, all the fun is in attacking the
whales in boat, though it's gener-
allv a dangerous lob.
On one exciting occasion he was
out with two boats from the Hiber-
MIA. The whale had got his death
wounds and as usual was stirring up
the sea a little in his final struggles.
If a whale goes about in circle
while in his death furry" the boats
crew is pretty sure Of his capture,
but if he pitches downward after the
harpoon pricks him he keeps going
down. And this one started for the
bottom with both boats fast to him.
All hands jumped for the stern
sheets, cutting the lines, and a few
minutes later were mighty busy bal
ing out the boats after a dip in the
sea.
