RAW SONY LILLE.

sick list part of last week.

from Friday until Sunday evening.
Orville Rawson has bought the
Ward Kingsbury place of Edward
Rawson. We understand the pur-
chase to cover only the buildings
and the lot on which they stand, the
rest of the farm being reserved.
The heavy snowfall of Monday
aud Tuesday drove large large
numbers Of birds near the buildings
in search of food. The focks were
largely composed of jimcoes and
song sparrows, though the fox spar
row, one of the largest and most
beautiful of the sparrow family, was
quite numerous, while some defect
ed robins AID bluebirds completed
the list OF those birds to whom such
storm is matter of serious con-
sequence. 1t is to be hoped that
many people were sufficiently
thoughtful for the well-being of our
feathered friends to furnish them
with some sort of food supply i'll
their time of need. A painful of
chaff from the barn floors is a Cod
send to these seed eating birds at
such a time. If one needed any
further reward than the mere fact
of being able TO be of service to
these pleasanttst of neighbors, he
would have it in the enlarged op-
portunltles to view them, for they
are bold when hungry, and the
chance of seeing birds comparative
ly uncommon, as in the case of the
fox sparrow, which is with us only
a few weeks, during the spring and
fall migrations.

PERU.

In <'11i NV Ne1<> A\'iNNA
i'll town the present year is worthy
of note, total tax for all purposes
being only 81 25-the town being,
practically out of debt. This is ow
ing to the aim upon the part of the
town officers to run the town for
the benefit of the town and not for
their own profit. Those living out
of the town have very heavy inter
ests therein and there is no DISPOSE
ton to take advantage of them, but
upon the contrary, All inducement is
held out for them to allow their tim
Der to remain standing and the town
thereby retain its chief glory. An
instance of remarkable appreciation
just shown is worthy of note. A
tract of timber assessed at $1,000
and owned by Charles R. Holden
of Bellows Falls was by an error
for two years left off from the list.
Mr.. Holden, although under no le
gal obligations, and although he
had disposed of the tract, generous
~ forwarded the amount, $I2o, to
the town treasurer.
Now is the time for all load COM
missioners to be upon the alert. A
days work laid out now i'll fixing
sluices and waterbars, may save the
town hundred dollars. Time has
gone by when roads can be attended
to only once a year. There are
miles of roads in some of our neigh
boring towns without sluiceway or
a waterbar that is in proper condi
ton.
The item going the rounds of the
state press in regard to the pine tree
cut upon the Cobb place i'll S. Lon

is, indeed, of interest. But the in
ference that the growth of late years
was comparatively light Oh account
of the narroWneSs of tie outside
rings, we think is not we'll taken,
for narrow ring upon the outside
indicates more real growth than a
wide ring near the center. More
growth is from large trees that are
fully alive than from small ones.
At last the long expected has
happened. A wealthy party from
New York, Mr.. Clark, has bought
up several thousand acres of land in

ton. 1t is about mile and half
from the Richardson Lodge, and is
