Regarding Automobile Licenses.

says that thus Mar he has refused an
automobile license to only one man.

licenses were taken out and thus far
only about 600 have applied for new Ii
censes. The law passed by the legisla-
ture of 1908 provides that new licenses
must be taken out in all cases as a
guide to the secretary of state in fix
ing the tax on the machines.
Reservation for Each County.
State Forester A. F. Halves hopes |
that ultimately Vermont will have
forest reservation in each of the four
teen counties of the state. The first of
these Will be in Washington county,
doubtless, as central location. Mr..
Halves has recently returned from that
part of the state. where he inspected
land with view Of purchase by the
state. No purchase will be made until
late in the summer and then tract of
about 500 acres will be secured. Other
and larger reservations will be &C.
quired when money for that purpose is
forthcoming. The state makes now an
!, annual appropriation for the forestry
bureau of $4,000. Most of this goes
for the nursery expenses.
