ways glad to receive and publish.
We feel like encouraging discussion

sonable length and text will always
find place in these columns. We wish
also to encourage the signing of

worth circulation through the press

together with the cost of the ingredi-

The Vermont Experiment Station
in its bulletin No. 116 has the follow
ing to say with reference to the value
of home mixed fertilizers as compared
with the ordinary commercial brands:
ION every account, however, finan-
cial, educational, agricultural, it is
better to buy the crude stock and
home mix if one uses ton or more. -
All up to- date farmers should be in
terested in the subject of home mixed
fertilizers and We are in a position
to help them. Address,

To Criminal Negligence

The report of the board of railroad
commissioners on the wreck on the
Central Vermont railway at South
Roy alton Jan. IS, when there was a
headon collision between a passen-
ger train and an extra freight, has
been made public. The commission
says; eve are we'll satisfied and find
that this collision, which might have
resulted in great loss of life, was
caused by the criminal negligence of
Conductor Prentiss and Engineer
Bronson of the extra freight train.
We urge the attorney general and the
states attorney of Windsor county to
take this matter into serious consid-
Grafton, and if. upon investigation,
they find the facts to be as we have
reported, that they institute a Grim
inal prosecution against said conduc-
tor and engineer"

Build Up the Town.

MIR. EDITOR:
Yes, let US build up the town, but let
us do it symmetrically. We have
built up the villages so that lot of
ground in Barton village or Barton
Landing suitable for a store is worth
more than an ordinary farm. We
have built up the merchants so that
come of them can indulge in automo-
biles and trips to California. Perfect
ly proper things, though they have
no direct connection with building up
the town.
= Let US build up the farmers awhile.

legs but not without lungs or heart,

villages but the villages could not ex

Danger of Using Alcoholic Mix
lures Or CUai Tar Table is.
Laying aside all moral objections
against filling up the system with
whiskey or drugs because one has a
cough or cold, the dangerous physical
effects should be sufficient to keep
one from using these strong medi-
cines.
A thoroughly scientific way to treat
a cough and cold as we'll as a sensible
method is to breathe Hyomei through
the neat pocket inhaler that comes
with every outfit. The first breath
of its healing medication relieves the
irritation, and it's continued use soon
effects thorough cure.
The best people in Barton always
keep Hyomei in the house during the
winter months, and at the fret symp-
toms of a cold or bronchial troubles,
use the remedy, and prevent serious
and lasting illness. The guarantee
that Fred d. Pierce gives with every
Hyomei outfit should convince you of
its curative powers. A complete
Hyomei outfit costs but S100, extra
bottles if needed, SOC, and Fred D..

money if it does not give satisfa elton

farms to the villages is strong enough
already without encouraging it.
/ don't think a farmer who has a
mortgage on his shoulders, buildings
to paint, fences to build, implements
to buy, ETC., should be scaled down"
too severely, if he chooses to make
eight or nine dollars do the work of
ten dollars, rather than TO encourage
the establishment of a new store
where there are already plenty, or
to build up existing stores unduly.
Doubtless the hotels afford market
for an occasional chicken to help feed
those genial gentry, the travelling
salesman, against whom l have moth
ing, only prefer to keep the chicken
for my own table rather than to pay
a dollar extra for some articles in
order to help feed them.
The rise of the big mail order stores
is only one phase of the present trend
toward Capitalization, which has al
ready swept through the manufactur-
ing industries. The impulse to CO.
operate among the farmers for the
purpose of marketing their products
is born and the movement will spread.
