NATURE CLUB MEETING

The Hartland Nature Club met
with Mr.. and Mrs. Underwood on
Sept. 10Th, to consider the topic of
"Hartland Soils" Mr.. Ruggles'
paper on the subject abounded in
the genuine knowledge and humor
Of one who has for many years
known and enjoyed farming in a
Vermont town. 1t was much
appreciated. The principal soils
were classified as clay, sand, gravel,
hard pan, alluvium, and muck.
AT the roll-call the abundance OF
the maple-tre pest, (Heterocampa
gutivittata,) was attributed to the
cold OF last winter, which killed the
wood mice that usually live upon
the larvae of this species ofinsect.
The announcement was made OF
the observation, in August, of a
flock Of white-winged crossbills
on Mt. AscutneY.
The club closed its exercises by
testing Mr.. Ruggles donation Of
Clinton grapes.
In October the meeting will be
held at Miss Sturtevants, the topic
being "Ferns, Fern Allies anc
Mushrooms"

Woodstock, VT, Sept. 20, 1908

The result of the Maine election is
pretty generally recognized by the
Republicans of the country, as having
more than local significance. The
slump in the Republican vote is
taken as a danger signal to which
the party is paying attention. The
congressional campaign in Maine was
largely fought on national issues,
and here again was the same falling
off in the Republican vote and the
same showing of Democratic strength
and activity. The apathy is all on
the Republican side; the Democrats
made tremendous gap in one New
England stronghold, and not unnat-
urally they are encouraged, to look
forward to national success.

LONGER DEER SEASON
Thomas Gives Reason Why Such
Game Should Be Killed.

Although the open season for deer
was shortened by the Legislature two
years ago from 10 to 6 days, the
recommendation will be made by II.
G. Thomas, commissioner of game
and fisheries, in his report to the
legislature, that it be further extend
ed, says a Stowe despatch in a Bos'
ton paper.
The number Of deer in the state is
increasing in spite of the slaughter
allowed, and the statement of the
commissioner in regard to this is as
follows:
"The state is well stocked with
deer. Many have been killed by
dogs. Probably not more than one
out of five illegally killed or killed
by dogs have been reported to the
commissioner. Figuring on this
estimated basis, there were illegally
killed I445, by dogs, 1910; total of
24S5. | believe this estimate to be
too conservative. The only solution
to prevent so many deer being killed
illegally would be an act Of the leg
islature prohibiting the carrying of
firearms during close season. 1t is
conceded, and a we'll known fact,
that many lumber camps are well
supplied with venison and other
oana ILLEGALLY takan
"The chief reason for the rapid
increase undoubtedly has been in the
protection of does, allowing deer
with horns to be taken only, 1t is
also known to the commissioner in
several instances where the hunters
life has been in jeopardy, but saved
through the caution of other hunters
waiting to see if what they supposed
to be a deer had -antlers, when tc
their surprise another hunter came
into view. For this one reason the
law is protection to human life
Eight out of ten illegally shot anc
killed by dogs are does. Taking
into consideration the above facts, j
would be better to amend the presen
law by making longer open season
and probably lessen the danger tc
| human life."

Prizes for Library Publicity.

At the next annual meeting of the
State Library association the pub
licity committee will award prize
of $40 to that member of the asso-
citation who, through her local paper,
has made best known to the public
her wares and work. Descriptions
of interesting acquisitions, accounts
OF entertainments and of library
benefits, OF Instruction offered to the
public by the library, and of work
done in the schools or districts; in
fact the publication of any item of
local library interest, will count
toward the prize. Such a collection
would prove afterward to be to the
library in the nature of report OF
its work and history of its progress.
The only condition is that competi-
tois be members of the State Library
association. BY applying to Miss
F. b. Fletcher, Proctorsville, further
information can be obtained.

Saving Roadside Trees

The Age said a few weeks ago that
when tie next Legislature met bill
would be presented for the preserva-
ton of trees by the roadside; that
recent reckless clearing along our
highway wasP not~only dis6gure-
ment, but greatly increased dust and
discomfort.
The st. Adams Messenger is sus-
picious and scents danger in this
proposition to preserve roadside
trees and to put stop to "mischiev-
GUS destruction" as The Age charac-
terized it. The Messenger says:
"Look out lest such law be the
cover under which the act requiring
the trimming out Of brush and nox-
ious growths along the roadside be
nulifed." And it adds that there
has been great deal of fuss made
over that law passed in 1906 and the
shortsightedness of some local
authorities or else very childish
spirit of resentment has made them
literally strip the roadsides right and
left regardless of the evident intent
of the statute"
The Age doesn't wish to see any
good law for the protection or clean
illness of our highways, or for the
comfort of the travellers over the
.,rnada, -r,,,lliGAd- AZ tho eo,..O ti.rIo c.
proposition to preserve trees and to
stop harmful destruction seems
innocent enough when brought about
by new law or the modification of
an old statute.
The Messenger concludes, regard
ing The Ages suggestion: "Scme-
body is trying to smuggle wooden
horse into this Troy" X
With the full import and deadly
meaning Of this classical allusion III
ones mind, who can tell what the
Messenger is driving at?

Low Water crippIes Manufacturing

On account of low water, necessi-
tating the shutting down of the
Consolidated Lighting Co., and the
consequent lack of electric power,
eight stone sheds were shut down
down in Montpelier last week Mon
day. Barre gets power from the
same company and if it is necessary
torun on short time, the various plants
will take turns in shutting down
temporarily. The water situation in
Montpelier is becoming alarming,
as the reservoir is lowering at the
rate of three-fourths of an inch per
day, and it is possible to lower the
reservoir only Is inches more.
The water in Lake Champlain is
at present lower than it has been
since the year 1881, and within six
inches of the lowest mark known.
Figuring from the high water mark
of the year 1869, it has fallen eight
feet and ten inches.
