Grade the Ewes.--If the breeding
flock is large 1t will often be found
advisable to separate the ewes into
two lots. In the fall there are always
some ewes which, due to various rea-
sons, are thinner than others. This
might have been caused by one eve
raising two lambs where the other
raised only one or by the fact that
one eve is a heavier milker than the
other. In either case 1t is evident
.ha. come of the ewes require more
grain feed to put them In breeding
condition than the balance of the
flock. II the breeder can arrange to
divide the breeding ewes and give
the thin ones little extra care. It will
put them all in the best shape at
breeding time and the grain 80 fed
will return its value many times.

B. & /. TRAIN SERVICE.
II Has become the Laughing stock of
the Travelling Public.

NV
The train service between this city and
Cambridge Junction s the laughing stock
of the country around.
People wishing to use this lirc to get
to their homes on Christmas day are SIN
wondering i they are living in an az,
Of progress which is supposed to have
some effect on railroads as we'll as other
things. Many people rose carly on Christ
mas morning to take the train due 10
leave Burlington AZ 7:4O In the morning.
They had visions Of merry making in
the homes which were their destinations.
They would have a jolly time eating the
Christmas dinner, but their anticipa tons
were not realized.
The train due to leave az 7:4o did not
pull out Of the station until about ten
o'clock. Therefore the train was over
two hours late In arriving at Cambridge
Junction II Is due there at 9lS accord
ing to tho time table, which seems 10
have gone out of business.
Christmas morning the people in the
local station We're put into a cold car
Considerable time was spent in getting
up enough steam to warm the cars after
the people had nestled in them.
Then there followed a series OF evolu-
tions backward. ard forward with the
train. which the passengers do not at
tempt to explain. Finally the conductor
made his appearance and calmly an
nounced that the engine which had beer
| responsible for these movements woult
have to he used for another train, ant
| that the train for Cambridge junction
could not start on its laborious way unit
another engine had been procured.
AT length the engine made its appear r.
ance and the train started. One mar
who wished to partakc Of Christmas din.
ner with his mother in Morrlsvile gave
up his plan and a,iEhted from the tran
at Winooslli lie got TO MorrisyIlle the
next noon.
The train, he says, had considerable
difficulty In Keeping in motion. More
than once the engine stopped, backed w
a bit and then ran forward with new
lease of life. Stops Of many minute.
We're made few times to give the ongin,
time to make a new supply of steam
Farmers along the line enjoyed the PRO

Several times the train. due here Mt S:i

FOR WRIT OF ERROR.
Consolidated Rendering Company File
Petition in County Court.

Claiming that the county court made
an error in adjudginG the Consolidated
Rendering company guilty Of contempt
for which fine OF $1,000 was imposed
the company, though its attorneys, j. ].
Enright and r. T.. Brown OF this city
and Hutchinson * Hutchinson OF Bos-
ton. have fled with the county clerk a
petition for a writ of error. The case Is
roturnable at the coming session of the
supreme court which convenes in Mont
pclier on January &, 1850. The service Of
the copy of the petition was accepted on
December % by Attorney General c. G.
Fits, who will appear in behalf of the
State. The company ask that the execu-
t!on in the case be stayed pending final
disposition Of the proceedings in error be-
fore the supreme court.
The petition covers 50 pages of type
written manuscript and contains the
petition and the service of the petition
on the attorney general. while a good
deal of space is devoted to the grand
jury's report.
The grounds on which the petition is
based follow:
First-Because tho report Of the grand
jury OF record in the contempt proceed
ings and tho affidavit of the general coun-
sci for said company sufficiently show
that the papers in question, II produced.
would tend to criminate said company,
and render il haple TO criminal prosecu-
tion and the constitutional privilege not
to criminate itself was duly claimed by
the company.
Second-Because the statute Of Yer
mont, act of 1906, entitled IAN act to COM
pei the production OF books and papers
by corpora tons" under and by virtue Of
which the court was acting. was uncon-
stitutional and void, and the court was
without jurisdiction.
Third-Because 1t overruled the motion
to dismiss filed by the said company.
Fourth-Because it does not appear
that the papers In question. If produced
would have been legally admissible in
evidence before the grand jury.
Fifth-Becauso no proper or sufficien,
notice to produce was given TO said com.
pany on which contempt proceedings
could properly be Instituted.

THE NEW FOOD LAW.
Analyst and Inspector to he Appointcd
Soon-Three Applicants.

1t Is expected that an appointment,
dating from January /. 1907, will be
made in n few days for food analyst
and inspector at the State labor
atory to work under the laws of the
State and the rules and regulations
adopted by the State board of health.
There are three applicants whose
names are now pending before the
State board The man appointed will
work In conjunction with the National
Pure Food association. The state
board of health will meet here very
soon and consult with DR.. y. II. stone,
director of the state laboratory.
The inspector will be at the head Of
n new department which, as prescribed
by the laws of 1904, provides for tho
inspection Of food, drugs and other ar
ticles Of common use When the orig
inal law was passed no appropriation
accompanied the act and IT was impos-
siblo to carry on the inspection as caro-
fully and rigidly as is desired to get
the best results. During the last ses-
sion of the Legislature a measure was
passed providing for an annual appro-
priation Of $4,000 for the department.
The salary of an inspector can be
easily paid out Of this leaving a good
balance with which to conduct the
work. 1t will be the purpose of the
State board of health to keep up to the
standard of purity for food products
adopted by United States department
of agriculture.
DIR. Stone said Friday 1t was his
opinion that the new department would
result in n great deal OF good. 1t
would eventually put fraudulent goods
off the market and stop the adulterated
food traffic. The department will be
backed up by the law In prosecuting
all violators of the present rules and
any new regulations that may be adopt
ed The law provides that all prose
cutting officers in the county shall be
prosecuting officers in the violation OF
food regulations. The penalty for
tho violation of any of the food laws l.
not more than 500 and not less than
$50. Justices of the county have con
