mems meeting, but even with this
handicap the Association put
through its regular business, got
some exceptionally good officers
and passed resolutions. The one
on the matter of fine breeds Of
dairy cattle and that of pure milk
and butter from our diaries de-
serves the prominence given it al
the meeting. 1t Is well that the
Association has taken the matter in
hand to look after our regulations
and our stomachs in the latter mat
ter and a. ter our material interests
in the former. The text of the res
olutions follow:
Whereas, The dairy interests
are of paramount Importance, and
Whereas, Hundreds OF buyers of
dairy cattle are coming to Vermont
annually for the purchase of dairy
cattle.
Therefore be it Resolved, That
a committee of publicity of one
man from each county, with the
commissioner of agriculture as
chairman, ex-officio, be appointed
by the president of this association,
whose duty it shall be to exploit
the herds OF full blood and high
grade dairy cattle in the respective
counties by articles in the various
farm and dairy papers of the state,
and by urging upon the Vermonter
the Importance of devoting one is
sue to the same purpose, and by
publishing from time to time such
articles as may be furnished by
said committee along said lines.
Resolved, That the legislature
of Vermont be requested to invest
in the cattle commissioner, in CO.
operation with the state board of
health, the power to employ dairy
and creamery inspectors whose du-
ties shall be to visit all creameries
and diaries producing either cream
or milk for sale in this state, or
manufactured for public sale, to
see that they are in a sanitary and
healthy condition, and to give such
instruction as shall be most condu-
Give to such in the conducting of
said creameries and dairies." .,g
At last the Gunnes murder is ex-
planned Ray Lamphere helped her
kill some of her victims and the
rogues had a falling out because
Lamphere thought he was not get
ting enough money for it. He took
the matter into his own hands and
chloroformsd Mrs. Gunnes and her
three children and the maid, and
robbed the house, A candle left
lighted in the house ace dentally
set the house on fire and burned
the victims. This is the ante NOR
tenn statement Of the murderer.
That Pittsburg man must have
felt queer with crazy barber and
a razor for companions, even
though he lives in a city of sensa-
tions. That no harm was done was
but an incident. The strange part |
of the story is that the man had
been released from an asylum only |
a few months ago. Rather a risky |
business for a discharged patient to
be engaged IN.
There is more and more of a cry |
going up for the selection of men
for the legislature with other quail
fications than the simple one of II
want it," There is call for men
who understand something of po-
litical economy, something of histo-
ry and something Of the states pc
culiar needs for these places.
The President is thinking of look
.ng into the cost of living condi-
tons. We are all looking into it
and trying to curtail our expenses
so that our money will cover our
bills. Quite a problem.
Defective wiring cost Grand
Mich, nearly 100000 in
the recent fire. Too much care
cannot be taken in the proper wir-
ng. for the risk of fire is real.
Let us not mourn the fire loss in
Burlington, for from the ashes of
Hotel Burlington the owners prom
se to build the best hotel in the
state. That spirit wins.
Even this week New England is
how it happened. That
IS not the vital part of it. 1t did
happen, and that is bad enough for
Boston.
There are some Mormon "elders"
IN Rutland. The elders" are
young and good looking so the
