area treated is ownd by DR.. William STANFORD
Stevens of Adams. Vermont, and Is located al
Enosburg in the same state An outline Oh the
work and its provisions follow
The area involved embraces 900 acres, divided
as follows:
Woodland, $50 acres; pasture lanu, off aeies'
meadow, 1856 acres.
The conditions that led the owner to consider
the possibilities of forestry were these The area
had been maintained under a more or less ulVer-
sified system of farm management. and as the own
er did not live near the property, he wished
to be relieved of the and attention that such
an arrangement involved.
To accomplish this purpose 1t seemed pest TO
bring the three classes of land under definite
the provisions and maintenance OF forest work
ing plan.
The provisions follow:
1 To complete the treatment OF the whole tract
at the end OF ten years
q All woodland to be treated is divided into
ten equal areas, one to be thinned in the fall and
winter of each year.
q All pasture land is divided into ten equal
areas one to be planted in the spring OF each year
a. All meadow land will be maintained as SUCH
g. For each wooded area, the kind OF thinning
to employ is stated; also rough estimate, TO-
gether with net value of the amount to come out
g. For each to be planted the species are
selected and the number necessary given, together
with the total cost of the work
The woodland is mixed. hardwoods consisting oil
sugar maple yellow birch. beech, and small
percentage OF ASH Eastwood. poplar. ironwood
cherry and elm, with young hemlock and spruce
reproduction well established on few sections
Sugar maple reproduction Is especially good, anc
with ash and Eastwood is particularly desirable
In treating this area either reproduction or I'm
provement Trimmings were prescribed, removing
all undesirable and over-mature species and sucl
mature species seemed best for the require
nents of the area. Thus only desirable species
were left to reproduce as well as to become NOR
valuable through increased growth.
In carrying out the field work for this plan, tn
area was first surveyed both by boundaries an

uencv as well an able policy both for
the interest of his party and the
country at large. The fact that the
people appreciate such man is a
high compliment to the people as
well as the man so honored. Success
in politics is too often the fruit of
demagogy, time-serving and sub
serviency to the shallow popular
whim; with Congressman Floyd the
reverse has been the case,
Recognizing that with his expert
ence in Congress his usefulness Is
greatly increased it is safe to say
that large majority of his people
would prefer keeping him there in
definitely; but following the line of
his original statement in the matter,
he will hold himself to the ten-year
precedent, and not offer himself for
the office after the present cam
paign.
With this record, there can be no
doubt that he will again be the NOM
inee by such majority as has never
before been given any asplrant in
the 3rd district, and when he has
rounded out the ten years service
as he will, no man in the state will
stand higher or more fully enjoy the

Girl Commits Suicide.
III Health and Disappointment Causes
Lille LittleiOhn to Take Csrbolic
Acid

About Il O'Clock on Tuesday
morning last Harrison was shocked
by the suicide of Miss Lille Little
John, a young woman of about
twenty-five years of age who has
been employed as cook at Taylor's
restaurant.
She had remained at her boarding
place, X. NJ. Flippo's, east of the
Planters Hotel all morning com,
planning of feeling badly, and Tebe
TAYLOR went down to see why she
had not been at the restaurant. She
was alone at the house at the time,
and after a short interview with
him, as he was leaving the door,
swallowed the contents of a small
bottle of carbolic acid and then call
ing him back told him what she had
done. He ran at once for a doctor,
and it was less than ten minutes
when he returned with DR.. Johnson.
but the poison had accomplished its
work.
Sticking in the suicides belt was a
note she had written that morning
which read "Oh, how foolish to
tasc my own life, all on account OF
a lie cannot live, | cannot write;
it is useless to try"
She was of a melancholy turn OF
mind and had frequently threatened
suicide; had been keeping company
with Tebe, son of Frank Taylor,
and it is understood a recent break
in their friendship eau ed the desper.
alton leading to the suicide. No one
seems to know as to the lie referred
to in the note.
