MORKING TIE ROAD.

When about this time every spring
towns owning road scrapers send them
out to root up turf from the roadsides
and pile it in long winding line in the
center of the highways the process is
called working the roads 90 In reality
it is the travelling public who are work
ed. not the roads. Properly used,
scrapers are Of great assistance to coun-
try roads, but as they are operated here
abouts they are a curse. If towns own
ing machines would sell them and devote
their energies to building even small
amount of substantial gravel road every
year'a comparatively SHORT time would
see a marked change in the highways
hereabouts Water bars and sod heaps
are obsolete in all communities where
road building is pursued according to
modern methods BrattleborO Reformer.

because they do not penetrate the skin.
The only way to reach the germs is by
means of penetrating liquid.
Such liquid can be obtained by sim

TIL Swanton Curier, always the cham

common sense about black bass, one of

"The finest game fish ia these waters
is the small mouth black bass and if ever
a fish needed protection ii Is the bass,

commenced at nearby well known bass
grounds, but what is done about it:
More real damage to fishing interests

ADVERTISING VERMONT TOWNS.

Several towns in the state are making
an effort to advertise their advantages to
the world. The majority of the more
important towns, however, are doing
nothing whatever along this line, more's

towns in this state that ought to make
an organized effort to attract more bust

Inadvertently The Messenger in an ed

write Venus of Melos.-St. Adams Mes

The Brattleboro Phoenix presents a
new phase of the Bennett Young affair,
according to the following: wouldn't
it be happy surprise to discover that
the fuss made over the proposed visit of
Col. Bennett Young was merely a clever
ruse on the part of the press agent of
the Tercentenafy celebration and that nc
one in the state seriously objected tc
having the distinguished Kentuckian
appear in St. Adams as the guest of that
city. We could pardon the press agent
for going to such lengths if we were as
sured that the apparent forgetfuness
that the war is over was manufactured

Governorship Candidates.

The Rutland Herald publishes a list Of
thirteen citiz-ys of this commonwealth
who, it is said, are willing TO be candi-
dates for governor at the next election
This list Includes two Addison county
men, j. +. Weeks of Middlehury and F.
L. Fish of Nergeunes, Regarding Mr..
Weeks it says: j. E. Weeks Of Middle
bury, farmer, is well thought Of by the
farmers, and has certain promises Of
Rutland county support that may or
may not materialize. He is not "a strong
man personally but has done some CON
scientious and effective work. If the
grangers as a whole should seriously take
him up, the Bell campaign might very
well be duplicated.
We fail to see how Mr.. Weeks can be
classed as a farmer, as he is not tiller
of the soil and does not live on farm.
The statement that he is "well thought
of by the farmers is very true and it is
equally true that he is well thought Of
by others, all Of which will be demon
strated if Mr.. Weeks sees fit to get into
the contest.
Mr.. Fish is summary disposed Of thus;
Frank L. Fish of Vergennnes would
have no chance with Weeks candidate
and but very little chance anyway. The
mention Of his name is mostly in the
way of good nature
The Herald cuts the list of candidates
down to three by saying that "the real
talk must be narrowed down to Mead,
Smith and Weeks. Merrill, under the
circumstances, would be tempting fate to
run at present"
The Rutland contemporary judgment
may be final but there are numerous
people around the state who are expect
ing Merrill to put up stiff fight, and
also that some others whom the Herald
leaves out in the cold will continue to be
mentioned fully as much as DIR. Mead.

OVERRIDING THE HONOR ROLL.

The attempt of the good-natured
Washington county newspapers to place
Senator Huntey's name on the "honor
rolf of the last legislature because he
gave his extra S92 to the new granite
sheds in Waterbury is rather entertain
ing, on the whole. Just what good it
does the taxpayers of the state to have
their money invested in a granite shed,
the Herald is unable to determine. On
the same principle, Representative Kins-
ley might say that he had invested his
surplus in the new candy firm, Repre-
sentative Fletcher Of Cavendish might
say that he had invested his extra salary
in the Caveudish gorge power scheme or
Representative Williams Of Newport
might say that he had contributed SOP
to his editor Swnsman's libel fund.
