How to Grow Alfalfa is the sub
iect of an article in the Banner today
by c. c. Jones, manager of the Col
gate farms. This article We consid-
err one of the most valuable ever
printed for Vermont farmers. Alfalfa
is the greatest of the clover family
and has added millions in wealth to
the farmers where it can be grown.
Heretofore it has not been success
fully grown in Vermont but Mr. Jones
has proved by actual experience that
he can get at least two large crops
per season here in Bennington and if
it can be raised here it can undoubt-
eddy be in other parts of the state.

On another page today the Banner
prints the report of the town auditors
relative to the financial condition Of
the town These figures are from the
annual town report which will prob
ably be out tomorrow night. The
town meeting this year coming on the
first day of March left very short
period between the closing of the ifs
cal year and the town meeting for the
auditors to do their work and get the
reports printed. For this reason the
reports will not be in the hands OF
the voters as long before the town
meeting as usual but some of the
more important figures are printed
in the Banner today The town has
made a remarkably good showing the
past year especially when 1t is taken
into consideration that the town has
not had any income from the liquor
licenses and at the same time has
had to pay county tax of $4,000 out
of the general fund This has made
the net available income of the town
the past year over $4,000 less than
during preceding years, but all bills
have been met and the Indebtedness
Of the town has been reduced, thus
showing the care and ability with
which the affairs Of the town have
been managed by the present board
OF selectmen.

The association OF the negroes and the

tion. The negrod dialect OF the whites
