first Of all, that he should apply him.

PRUNING SHADE TREES.

A reader of these notes living at
Muscatlne, Ia, writes inquiring what
he can do to help the looks Of some
old and rather scraggly appearing box
elders wants to know If pruning viii
help them and when 1t Is best to do it.
While a first hand inspection would be
necessary to give the most valuable
detail advice, we should think that
such trees might be helped much by
pruning provided they are not too far
gone and possess reserve vitality suf-
ficlent to withstand the pruning oper-
alton. From the very nature Of the
case each tree should be pruned in
such way that the new tree will have
the best shape possible. The job may
be done during the winter months or
after the leaves are two.thirds out,
but not while the sap is running, as
the loss of vitality would be great, as
In the case Of the naples. Wonders
can be done by the judlcious pruning
Of shade trees, and an increasing num-

method into practice, thereby greatly

The Barton Monitor and some 9th
er state papers in discussing the gov
ernorship campaign declare that it is
Mead against the field. Is this cor
rect at the present stage of the can
vass? OF course down here at Ben
nington we are far from the center
of population and also from the politi-
cal centers so that we may be misled,
but looking at the canvass as dispas-
sionately as we are able and trying to
state the thing as we see it, without
prejudice, it appears that Fleetwood
has passed Mead in the race and is
now the leading candidate. OF
course partisans of various eandi-
dates are inclined to see things from
the viewpoint of their favorite and
anybody is likely to be misled by UNI
conscious prejudice, but there are
many things that indicate a disin-
tegration of some of the support
which appeared earlier sure to go to
Dr.. Mead and the Banner considers
him now only in second place in the
race.

Why do ignorant newspaper men
persist in writing items about Boston
bull terriers when no such breed of
dog exists. There are Boston terri
ers and bull terriers, but they are no
more alike in appearance or disposi-
tion than Holsteins and Jerseys
Brattleboro Reformer
At last the state has developed a
dog expert. We knew Vermont
could do it in time. For forty years
we have iguratlvely wandered in the
wilderness for the want of a prophet
to lead us right on the dog issue
For two score years-and perhaps
more-Vermont legislators, newspap-
ers and public men have struggled
with the great question, when does
a pup become a dog, without result
Now we shall know. 1t may not come
at once for great minds will not be
hurried, but in due season the emf
nent intellect that directs the dog
gone destinies of the Brattleboro CON
temporary will pause in one Of its
flights long enough to give us the
answer for which the state has
