Upper Rerths Not Taken.

Chicago.-There have been so
many empty upper berths in Pull
man sleeping cars, ever since the
law went into effect reducing the
rate on them, that the proposal is
now underconsideration to reduce
them still further on the combination
plan. This plan, which has been
submitted for approval of the Pull
man Company. will give a traveller
both the upper and lower berths for
90 cents added to the price of the
lower alone.
Five thousand sleeping cars are
operated in the United States and
Canada.

president of the Pittsburg Club Of
the National League, today purchased
Marty O'Toole, ST. Pauls spitball

State Nursery Sold 4os.zoo Trees.

State Nursery Sold 10000 Trees.
Now that the forest planting season
has closed the following summary Of
the nursery stock sold BY the state
nursery may prove interesting. The
total number Of trees sold was 463-
200, an increase of $500 over 1910.
These went out to 70 different parties,
private owners and corporations. An
encoura NC awakening occurred on the
west SIDE Of the state. Whereas Wind.
sor county has formerly led in this en-
terprise, Rutland county, has this year
planted the most trees, largely through
the activity Of the Vermont Marble
company and the Rutland Railway.
Light and Power company. Windsor
county ranks second in this respect.
the most extensive planting being done
by w. d. Woolson of Springfield; and
Windham county is third Consider
able planting was done in Bennington,
Essex and Lamoille counties this year,
where very little interest has been
shown previously The largest private
plantation made this year was that of
DR.. William Stanford Stevens of Enos-
burg, where about $1,000 trees were
planted, part of which had been raised
ON his farm. Extensive plantations
were made also on the state lands in
Plainfeld and Sharon and by the In
ternational Paper company on its Yer
mont lands.
Up to the present time the state
nursery has been unable to supply the
demand for three-year-old trees, but
from now on It is expected that prae-
tically unlimited orders can be filled,
as about 100000 two year old pine
seedlings were this year transplanted
in the nursery. White pine will con-
tinue to be the chief tree raised on
the light soil of the Burlington nur-
sery, but at the Sharon nursery, where
the soil is somewhat better. It is
planned to raise a large supply of
Norway spruce. Great loss was suffered
during the past winter in both nurseries
on account of damage by ice, several
hundred thousand seedlings being de-
stroyed

BIPLANE FLIGHTS AT STATE FAIR

There will be three flights daily,
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, and
fights are guaranteed each day with

No type Of seroplane il more familiar

Pronunciation, Mr.. Curtiss has developed
his aeroplane for the most practical pur-
poses; the machine be recently sold to
the United States government for mill

machine Is the best specimen Of the gen

In the Curtiss machine this feature is
pronounced, owing TO the
greater safety made possible BY the rigid
planes as compared with the weaknesses
of the varying plane systems.
Because of its graceful lines as well
as because of the beauty of its finish,
the first high powered Curtiss machine,

plaudits and admiration of all national

praise. despite their failing for the mon
