Policies That Insure Success
In SAVINGS Banks

Every good banking institution has
certain policies which it follows in
variably and which make for the sue
cess of failure of the bank. The
Enosburg Falls Standard evidently
believes the Hyde Park Savings Bank
is following the right kind OF policies.
1t says:
Ex-Gov. C. S. Page has every reason for
pride and satisfaction over the record made
by the Lamoille County Savings Bank, which
on July IL, passed the million-dollar mark in
assets This is distinetively a Vermont in
stitution for it has been the policy OF the
bank since its establishment that none of its
loans should be made out of the state. 1t
has never lost a dollar by a poor note. It's
depositors are to be found in practically
every town in the state. Its policies have
commanded patronage and made for its sue
cess.

the office might be one in a large city
for all its appearance.
Taken as a whole the work at the dam
site impresses the casual visitor with
its immensely and thoroughness AL
though he cannot form a conception of
what the result will be like and can only
partially comprehend the methods in use
by the engineers, his realization of the
many kinds of work all going on at the
same time without conflict gives MIN
good ground for a feeling of surety that
the work is in reality a unit and that
he will only have to wait to- see its ac-
complishment. This is when he comes
away without seeking explanation. After
a talk with any of the engineers he mas
no doubts and his enthusiasm over the
work is well nigh boundless. 1t is in
reality a unit and going forward with
good speed.

When the stream is turned against a
bank 80 feet from the nozzle it sends
back muddy torrent which pour5 down
a sluiceway and deposits the sediment
above the cofferdam When it is used
at close range it's power is amazing,
Rocks as big as a mans head are thrown
aside and into the air and pebbles
up to the size of an egg are hurled about
like drops of water. In one minute the
stream can lay bare more ledge than
a dozen men would uncover in an hour,
There are two of these great streams of
water eating into the bluff at opposite
sides They cut away at the base

A visit to the site of the Connecticut
river dam has widely differing meanings
to different men. The work being done
there means to the capitalist eventual
large financial results and is calculated
in terms of ultimate returns from the
investment. To the engineers it means
strenuous battle in which the strength
of the river is pitted against the strategy
of man backed up by the most powerful
and effective machinery yet invented. To
the public spirited citizen the work brings

BIG DOINGS
 IN BEANTOWN

Boston, July 31.-With brilliant uniforms, flashing swords and mar tial music, thousands of members of the civic, military, patriotic and fra ternal bodies of Boston marched through the streets today, partici- pating in the great civic and trades parade arranged as a feature of the old home week. Thousands of ad- ditionl visitors and home corners ar rived in the city today and the pros poets of an unprecedented crowd during the latter part of the week bids fair to be realized. Another important events of the weeks rro- gram will take place this evening, when the Cambridge bridge will be dedicated with ceremonies of most elaborate nature. The struc- ture will be illuminated with thou sands of electric lights and bril- liant pyrotechnic display will take place on the bridge. Plans have been completed for the grandest
 military pageant ever held in New England to take place Saturday, when all the Massachusetts militia

NEW CROPS FOR THE STATE.

The man who introduces new crop and demonstrates that it is an agricultural and commercial success has done the people a signal service.
 The doctrine of crop rotation and diversification is given that much of impetus and the country relieved of a slavery to the uncertainty of any par ticular crop.
 The United States government, through it's Agricultural Department, is constantly experimenting with new crops indigenous in other lands, which may be found adaptable to this, and much good has resulted
 One of the most notable of these importations, and one that directly interests Arkansas, is the culture of rice, which the last few years have demonstrated to be a success.
 The last few years have shown what can be done with the proper cultivation of fruits and vegetables which, while not alien to the land were nevertheless not looked upon as commercially valuable, and now one of the greatest sources of revenue that comes into Arkansas, is the gold en stream of strawberries, blackber- ries, canteloupes, peaches, tomatoes and potatoes.
 A private experimenter is showing what can be done with the littl, known and less understood fibe plant, ramie, which, under a success ful degumming process, should be come one of the profitable crops, say.

NEW POSTAL
 CARD RULES

Washington, July 31.-As a re- suit of an order promulgated by Postmaster General Meyer, messages may hereafter be written on both sides of government postal cards, the new rulng going into effect at midight tonight. Some months ago the postal laws were amended so as to give that privilege to users of private post cards, but the con- cession was not made applicable to postal cards issued by Uncle Sam. It was to remedy this inconsistency that the new order was made, which provides that the face of q post card may be divided a by vertical line placed approximately one-third of the distance from the left end of the card, the space to the left of the line to be used for a message, the portion to the right to be re- served for address only. A very thin piece of paper may be attached if it completely adheres to the card, and such paster may bear both writing and printing. Advertise ments, illustrations or writing may appear on the back of the card and on the left third of the front. Pos tai cards of new designs conforming to the conditions of the amended regulations will be placed on sale at every postooffice throughout the country.

he Arkansas Democrat.


 Now comes the Agricultural De- partment with proposition that should interest Arkansas, since ii proposes to utilize to advantage some of the great areas of land at present waste and useless because given up to canebrakes, snakes and memory of bear haunts.
 It is proposed to raise bamboo on these swamp areas until such time as they shall be reclaimed and made arable.
 The cane is of limited utility, but the bamboo, which belongs to the same family of the giant grasses, is valuable ill many ways.
 It is a most profitable industry in Japan, for the bamboo may be used for many things for which the hardier woods of America are used, and it would therefore aid in solving the problem of the conservation of forests.
 It is proposed to conduct experi- ments in the Southern States in bam- boo raising, bringing the plants from Japan to be transplanted where now the comparatively useless cane grows so luXuriantly.
 The bamboo is rapid grower and is ready for cutting in four years, and should yield from $50 to $100 per acre.
 Considering the comparatively small amount of labor required to mature the bamboo, no cultivation be- ing necessary, and the land being of such a character that cotton or ce- reals can not be raised upon it, this should recommend itself to many.
 If the bamboo will grow here thousands of acres that are now worse than useless might be utilized to advantage.
 A rich alluvial soil is required and while the land must not, be subject to continual flooding, an occasional overflow does no harm.
 Southern States that may be adapt ed to it's growth will be asked to cooperate, and it would be a stroke of policy if some property holder of Arkansas should take sufficient in- terest in the proposition to offer land fora bamboo nursery. The work is under the direction oi David Fairchild, in charge of the Bu' reau of Plant and seed introductio! of the Agricultural Department.
 The bamboo industry may yet be come one of great value to Arkansa if someone will only take hold of th' proposition.
