States Attorney of Caledonia County
Wishes to Prevent st. JOhnsbury
From Using City Water.

st. Johnsbury, Oct. 14.-State's At
torney Robert w. Simonds has APP
piled to the Court of Chancery for an
injunction to enjoin all takers of the
st. Johnsbury village water from US
ing it and the trustees of the village
from furnishing water for domestic
purposes. The case will be given a

THE LAND OF GOOD APPLES.
New England the Place Where the
Best Orchards Should Be Found.


In an address before the Vermont
Horticultural Society, J. II. Hale, of
Connecticut, said:
Whenever l go to Kansas City, and
doubtless some of you have also been
there, cannot help noticing a sign as
enter the depot, Come to the Ozark
the land of the big red apple They
try to sell that land because the big
red apple can be raised there.
Stay right here in New England,
which is the land of the good red ap-
pie. don't know what more l can
say, except the people are here, the
demand is here, and you have got to
make more of your fruit. 1t certain
ly is not good business on your part
to let people one thousand or two
thousand miles away produce fruit
which outshines yours, and which
they ship here, paying refrigerator
fees, etc, and which they sell for more
than yours does, right here under
your nose. II is the money you are
after, and to get this money you have
got to work. You must not be salts
fed with the soil which God Almighty
gave you. He has given us pretty
good soil, but we have got to join
hands with nature and push the good
thing little farther. Now you need
to go to the markets and see what is
wanted and why they want it. You
cannot stay at home, back on your Or
chard, and grow such products as you
think you want to grow, and sell
what you have. You have got to know
what the demand is, and then start in
to produce fruit which will fill that
demand"

Forestry i'm Vermont.

Soon after the State Forester, A. F..
Hawes,w went to Burlington, among the
first announcements to be made from
his Office was an offer to visit the for
est or farm lands of, and give ad-
vice relative to it's management, to
any citizen or property owner of the
State.
DR.. William Stanford Stevens, Of
st. Adams, is the first citizen to take
advantage of this offer In August,
under the direction of Mr.. Halves, a
forest working plan was made for a
900-acre tract owned by DR.. Stevens
at East Enosburg. This property en-
braces wood, pasture and meadow
land
The object at which this plan is
aiming is to bring all classes of land
under a definite and permanent sys-
tenn of management and so arranged
and specified that the presence or
time of the owner is not necessary
to it's fulfilment.
This plan is to extend over a Pc
riod of ten years, namely to 1919, at
which time all woodland will be i'm
proved through reproduction cut
tings or Improvement Trimmings; and
all over~mature, part of the mature,
the dead, dying, suppressed, and less
valuable species will be removed
Thus the forest area will be improy-
ed and so established that it's future
will be enhanced by increased re-
production of the more desirable spe-
cies, and IN increased rate of grow;
tn resulting from the removal of un-
necessary competition. All the pas
ture land will be planted with white
pine and Norway spruce.
In carrying out this plan all wood
and pasture land is divided into ten
equal areas, one-tenth of the wood
land being thinned each fall and win
ter and one-tenth of the pasture land
planted each spring.
The receipts from the trimmings
and q numbering operation now in
roE:Hss, VII cover the cost of planf
ing. Thus the land is placed on an
improved basis and a valuable To-
vestment made, all funds being OBJ
tanned from the sale of timber now
standing on the tract
Accompanying this plan is a map Of
the tract, upon which the areas to be
treated each year are indicated.
The duties of the State forest Of
flee do not cease at the completion of
the written plan, for each summer
the trees will be marked for cutting
in the fall and the contractors work
inspected, both during the cutting and
the spring planting.
This same work will be done for
any land owner in Vermont, the only
expense being that necessary for
travelling and field expesnes.
Doctor Stevens has a large lumber
interest and is thus thoroughly aware
of the merits and advantages of a
wise and systematic forest policy. 1t
is hoped that other land owners will
follow the example set by him.

TO BOOM NEW ENGLAND APPLES,
Boston Chamber of Commerce to Hold
Meeting and Dinner Oct. 81.

The Boston Chamber of Commerce
Will take up the discussion of a sub
ject comparatively new to most of it's
members at the first regular fall
meeting and dinner THE Future Of
the New England Farm" And par
ticular attention will be given t.
fruit culture, and, of fruit, to the ap-
pie.
The chambers committee on agri-
culture will submit report, and
there will be addresses by a number
of well know agriculturalists
This October event will take place
on the evening of the 21st, in Ford
Hall. The dinner, which will con-
sist almost entirely of New England
products, will be served at P. M.
An interesting feature will be the
presence of those fruit growers and
enthusiasts who are attending the
fruit show, which will at that time
be in progress in Horticultural Hall
The chamber, through it's committee
on arrangements, which will be in
charge of the dinner. will extend
through the management of the fruit
show an invitation to all persons at
tending the show to be present at the
dinner as guests of the chamber
Expert pomologists and other agri-
culturalists from all the New Eng
land States will also attend. Ad-
dresses will be made by the follow
ing
Prof. John Craig, of Ithaca, N. Y,
professor of horticulture at Cornell
University; DR.. George w. Twitchell,
of Auburn, Me-, a well known writer
and speaker on agricultural matters:
Prof Kenyon L. Butterfield, of Am
herst, president of the Massachu-
sets Agricultural College; j. H.
Hale, of South Glastonbury, Conn,
a practical fruit grower, and ]. Lew
is Ellsworth, secretary of the Mass
achusetts State Board of Agriculture.
Lantern slides will illustrate several
of the addresses.
In its announcement of the dinner,
the committee on agriculture says:
'The Importance to New England
of reawakening interest in agricul-
ture cannot be overestimated. The
resources of the section are compar.
atively undeveloped; the market is
almost unlimited; the climate, trans
portation and other factors favor
able. Why New England should not
compete with the West is hard to I'M
derstand, but the reason, when an
alyzed, is seen to be little more than
state of mind. The feeling that
we cannot compete is a fallacy and
the speakers at the dinner of the 21st
are prepared to prove it so.
"The interest of the chamber in
agriculture will be no surprise 70
those who have followed the trend
of its development. The members
realize that the commercial future
of New England will depend not only
on increased manufactures, better
port facilities, higher education, i'm
proved municipal and social condi-
tons, but also very largely upon what
the farmers can bring forth from the
ground. The value of the farm crops
produced by the New England States,
as shown by the last United States
census, was $S4,74707S. In the last
few years, under better economic
conditions of cultivation, the soil Of
New England has been producing
much more than this, and in some
cases the average yield per acre I'M
der cultivation is unequalled by any
set of States in the Union. Further
advance is bound to come"
