From the Landmark, }

In a Burlington Free Press of recent
issue was the advertisement of a local
mercantile firm wanting to buy 600
bushels of butternuts. There was deal
of significance in that advertisement,
for among other things 1t showed that
there Is a market for butternuts no mat
ter how large or small the quantity, and
while the price the Burlington firm was
ready to pay WAS not stated the New
York city market quotations show the
jobbing price to range from Is cents To
81 per bushcl. But If the Vermont fal mer
can get 30 cents 'bushel for hutternuts
that price pays we'll for their growing
and harvesting. for the butternut tree

able age.

RUTLAND RAILROADS. PLAN
The Rutland plan was submitted to the
commission about a half hour before the
noon recess 1t contained attachments
showing changes that have been made IN
proposed station approaches. Attorney
Lawrence stated that the Rutland plan
as presented had been worked out more
In detail and was in the shape that the
road desired to present It 20 the Commia-
sion for adoption. The floor plans Of
tho proposed station were placed on view
below the plan OF general rearrange-
ments. An exterior view of the proposed
Rutland station as it would look when
completed was also placed on the frame
The Rutland plan, the details Of which
are familiar to many. provide for the sta
ton at the foot of Main street and a
train shed on the lower level with three
platforms. An overpass from the foot of
ling street, over The ira cks to the west
ern line of Rattery street is provided
for
The College street crossing is provided
for by an overpass, which would elevate
College street over the tracks. This over
pass would extend from the western line
of Battery .treet to point directly south
of the present Central Vermont freight
house. the ramp ending directly in front
OF the Yacht club wharf.
one of the principal changes made IN
the Rutland plan since the last hearing
is in the approach to the station from
Main street. The plan now provides for
space in front Of the station. The sta
ton is reached by descending steps dir
ectlY at the foot of Main or by driving
either south or north of Battery street,
around curves into the space in front
of the station.
The Central Vermont raised the objec-
ton that three of their principal indus
trial tracks west of the main line tracks,
on College street. extending from their
yards to the Shepard & Morse mills,
would be cut off by the ramp of the
proposed overpass over College street.
Chairman Redmond asked If the over
pass on College street could be left out
Of the plan. Engineer. Irwin of the Rut-
land stated that such Il change would
ran TO eliminate the grade at College
street and the city, without the overpass,
would be effectually shut off from the
lake front on College street.
1t was suggested tina, the three indus
trial tracks which the Central claims
would be shut off by the ramp of the
College street overpass might be laid
around the western end of the rant"
across the approach to the Yacht club
wharf. But the city might have some
thing To say about such an arrangement
as it claims the title to the lower end of
College street.

BEEF SOUP WITH TOMATO.

In comparing the two following gouush
recipes it seemed that in No. /, was
altogether needless to cook separately at
first and then to drain the vegetables
before adding to the meat The value of
the vegetable elements lost by this drain
ing seems worth saving and the added
work seems supcrfluous. | accordingly

rounds OF meat and vegetables approx
mately proportoned as in No. .. The re-
suit we found was very good beef soup

use vegetable rs fully as taste and Sood
judgment will allow, and seldom take the
meat or vegetables out, so there is no
waste OF meat values as in clear
soups or of vegetable juices as might re-
