POPULAR PERSONALLY CONDUCT
ED" TOUR TO BE THE GREATEST
EVENT OF THE SEASON.

The splendid success which attended
last years special March excursion to the
national capital under the auspices of the
Boston d Maine railroad has encouraged
the management to accord the public a
similar opportunity this spring on an even
more elaborate scale.
This is to be another personally con-
Quoted" ten-day tour, and the term means
something more than a mere phrase too,
for no Unconstitutional or round-the-
world trip could receive more careful
attention from those in charge of this
Washington Tour.
This season the management has pre-
pared a pleasant surprise for the public.
The route from New York to the Capital
is to be over the celebrated Royal Blue
Line "a name to coniure with in the

There is some fuss going on

There is some fuss going on
over in New Hampshire because
city agriculturists are buying up
farms for summer homes. Some
of our New Hampshire exchanges see
a danger in this plan as they say
they would prefer that the farm
should be worked all the year and
be a real business plant, rather than
a pleasure resort. In Vermont that
is the way it works Our city
owners do have their farms worked
for all there is in them, under
scientific farming. To be sure they
hunt, fish and golf themselves,
but their superintendent really
live on the farms and make them
productive. Some times they make
them farm schools for the benefit
of the old line farmer, whose farm
happens to be adjoining property.
Our brand Of city farmers is all
right sorry if New Hampshire
fares less well.

The Vermont Marble Company
of Proctor within the next few
months will begin the construction
of an extensive marble finishing
plant in Seattle, Wash. Through
ex-Gov. F. D. Proctor, president,
and w. E. Higbee, prominent
stakeholder, the Vermont Marble
Company has brought the holdings
of the Western Marble Company

operated finishing plant in Tacoma

about 200 men and will receive

Between forty and fifty farmers
met in St. Adams February 8,
for the purpose of forming COW test
ing association. w. K. Warner
presided and read an article by
Prof. Ribard on the advantages of
an association of this kind. A
general discussion followed this
paper, and when the constitution
was passed around for signatures
sixteen of those present affixed
their names to the paper. Twenty
five names are necessary to form
an association, but the farmers are
confident of getting the remaining
number of signatures. The sixteen
signers represent total Of $50 cows.
The Montpelier Lodge of Elks
has held its first meeting in its new
home on Barre street, members
being present from Mortified, Brad
ford, and Stowe. District Deputy
Grand Exalted Ruler C. A. Yale, of
Burlington, paid his official visit
and two candidates were initiated,
one from Bradford and one from
Mortified. While not entirely set
tied yet, the Elks' new home is
one of the most commodious club
houses in the State and it is the
only lodge of Elks in the State
owning it's own house. While all
plans have not been completed,
among the accommodations will be
a suite of bed rooms for the use of
members, which is
probably a new departure for an
like the Elks, as far
as Vermont is concerned. Meals
will be served at all hours.

The Japanese government is
not at all laggard in doing for that
country. Issa Tanimura, a grad
uate of Yale, is in this country
studying our sheep industry for
points. Japan is importing woods
and wooden goods and also that
country is dropping somewhat off
the rice diet and becoming more a
meat eating nation. Evidently 60
ing on the principle that it is foolish
to buy what you can raise, Japan
plans to increase her sheep industry
thereby meeting the demand both
for wool and meat. There's judg-

keepers Of the town on their action
in closing the stores every evening
excepting Mondays and Saturdays,
because it is a sensible thing to do.
We need diligence in business today
the same as ever, but we have grown
practical enough to know that we
cannot pursue business from six
o'clock in the morning until mid
night every day in the week to
advantage. By concentration, we
can crowd just as much profitable
business into the more restricted
hours, and have some time for
other things. Today is a day of
vocation and avocation and both
are profitable, We wager that the
business of the square does not
diminish because of the few hours
lost on Wednesday evening.

One of the Boston papers has
this side light on the Aud court
martial. Zone of the most impress
sive bits of the Aud court-martial
is the way father and son have stuck
together. The older Aud is an
aristocratic man and was the center
of much attention. He and his
son seem like good chums." That
conc 'uding sentence contains whole
sermon on the art of raising sons.
When father and his sons are
good chums, it is usually safe to
conclude that there is good stuff in
both, that discipline has been
tempered by affection and under
standing on the fathers part; and
that respect and affection on the
boys part has brought into subiec-
ton the natural impetuosity of
youth.
