Mrs. Gertrude circuit visited relatives
in Moscow last Saturday and Sunday.
A stitch in time saves nine, except
in the matter of good water system
and then a stitch will save about SO.
1t will not take very big blaze to de-
stroy enough property to pay for good
system of water works. Think it over.
R. M. Smith, Of Leland, was in Troy
during the past week looking over the
town with view to opening a pho
tograph gallery at this point. He was
we'll impressed with Troy, saying it
had the appearance of being a very
thrifty place.
The people Of Troy should not per-
nit spirit OF indifference to grow up
about their creamery. The fact that
the local plant got into little trouble
over an incompetent employer is no
proof that the creamery is not good
thing.
The Sunday law; so far as Troy is
concerned, is being strictly obeyed.
The saloon people declare that they
favor such measure, provided it is en-
forced. In Troy those with Sunday
thirst must either lay in supply Satur-
day night or be content with soda pop.
The News believes that Troy is one
Of the most orderly towns in Latah coun-
ty. We believe there is no town where
the laws are more freely obeyed, and
where the citizens have more respect
for the laws. Others had better clean
up their own houses before they cast
reflections on Troy.
Eggs are still bringing twenty cents
dozen with no prospect of the price
dropping. And the price Of chickens
is equally good, all of which ought to
be pretty good evidence that there is
money in raising poultry, and that there
is no danger of the business being over
crowded. The demand is growing a
hundred times faster than the supply.

This week the News editor was given a
loaf of bread made from Troy flour by
Conrad Gieger, the Troy baker, which
ought to convince anyone that Troy
-four does make good bread. Mr..
Gieger is one the best bread-makers in
the country, and the fact that he uses
Troy flour is fattering testimonial Of
the value of the home product.
Peter Hoidale, road overseer Of the
district between Troy and Nora, is do
ing lot of fine work on the roads in
that district. A man from Avon who
passed over the road this week said Mr.
Hoidale was, in his opinion, doing the
best road work he had ever seen in
the county. 1t ought to be pleasing to
Mr.. Hoidale to know that his efforts to
improve the roads in his district are ap-
preciated by the people who travel in
his district.

Some children playing in the barn
back of the News office, started blaze
in the hay Friday evening, C. w.
Tompson, who was sitting on his porch
across the creek, made dash for the
fire at ten second gait and succeeded
in putting it out before any damage
was done. 1t was a close shave for a
big blaze, and ought to emphasize the
necessity of keeping matches away
from the children. This is the third
fire during the past month that has been
started in this block by children.
Some of these days these little blazes
will not be discovered until they are
beyond the control of man with a
bucket and a gallon OF water.

The principal topic for discussion
the past week among the townspeople

farm, which is under consideration: Re
preventative H. w. Taylor has a bill be-
fore the house for an amendment to the
charter of the Brattleboro company which
would allow the dam to be put in, similar
to an amendment which was passed at
the last session of the Vermont legis-
lature. Meetings were held Friday and
Saturday at which some of our prominent
citizens and interested Brattleboro people
were present and the matter was given
careful consideration. The proposition is
to build dam and a power house and
transmit the power by electricity wher..
ever it is desired. Should this be carried
out several of the farms on the Brattle--
boro road and some OF the road would
be flooded. 1t is understood that there
is at this point one of the best sources OF
water power undeveloped that there is
in this locality.
