1T PAYS TO ADVERTISE VERMONT.

A couple of years ago the FREE
PRESS devoted editorial attention to
the wonderful record of the Holmes
apple orchard in Charlotte and the
record was published in large ma
jority of the papers throughout the
country. We know Of no single in
stance of the kind which has attract
ed more general comment regarding
the possibilities Of success along a
special line of farming in Vermont.
Mr. Stevens of Middlebury, who is
very marked result of the Holmes
publicity throughout the country has
been to attract fruit buyers to Yer
mont in Increased number AS re-
suit of the consequent competition
Vermont apple growers are receiving
better prices than before, and the ad
vantages to the State as whole as
we'll as to the Individual most con-
cerned have been marked particular
~ TOT wrapped fruit.
That Vermont offers an inviting
field in small fruit production as well
as in apple culture is demonstrated by
he success of Mr. NJ. A. Jenkins of
Bradford who accompanied the Bet
ier Farming Spectral" during it's recent
tour TO various points on the Central
Vermont railroad
Mr. Jenkins has one OF the largest
II not the largest, OF strawberry
patches" in New England. He has
'on acres OF rather heavy soil under
cultivation. and half OF It Is kept bear
ing and half Is devoted to new sets
alternately. He has shipped during
the season an average of probably 100
bushels of strawberries a day, and his
largest shipment was 121 bushels,
Mr.. Jenkins employees as high as
been with him ever since he started IN
the business. They camp during the
season, which covers between three
and four weeks, and tho scene Is an
animated one. The season in Vermont
follows the season in Massac husetts
80 that Mr. Jenkins has no trouble In
dsposing OF his large stock at excel
lent prices. This shows that Vermont
son has grand possibilities in various
directions.

sick and the COW died. Then Me

The distracted widow and mother

TEN RICHARD SAID TO
BE IN NEW YORK CITY

A dispatch from New York to
the Salt Lake Tribune under date
of October IA, has the following
to say regarding G. L. Richard of
Ely, New.
NEW YORK, Oct. 20.-Tex
Richard, the western sporting man
and fight promoter who brought
the heavyweight championship fight
between Jack Johnson and Jim
Jefries at Reno, New, is back in
New York and may try to induce
some of the stars of the fighting
game to go to the Argentine Re-
public to box for big money. Tex
arrived here from England on the
Baltic and for several hours was
with Jack Gleason, talking over the
! fight situation in this state. Rick
ard is still great lover of the
game, and as he owns thousands
ef acres of land in the Argentine,
1t would not be a surprise if he
made big offer for two heavy
weights to meet there in finish
fight"

JOKER LETS STATE
OFFICIALS ACCEPT
RAILROAD PASSES
PUBLICITY BOARD MEMBERS
REPORTED TO BE SUPPLIED
WITH PASS CARDS.

CARSON CITY, Oct. 20 During
the session of the last legislature
a bin was introduced annulling a
law previously passed, prohibiting
state and county officers from ac-
.ceptng passes on railroads, to the
extent of exempting all police Off

that in several of the counties the
sheriffs are also the tax assessors
which fact tells the story of pcssi-
Bile improper influence of transpor-

promptly and properly killed the
measure.
In the bill creating the now no.
toriously incompetent publicity

joker that permits the members
of that board to accept and use
railroad passes. In accordance there

Attorneys to whose attention this

ger concealed in the publicity wood
pile The case seems to be some
thing like this, the quite evident
paramount purpose in the micheavil-

when drafting the measure being to
conceal this provision, which the
legislature had already disapproved
of in the case of sheriffs and other
police officers, that he neglected to
