TO DISINFECT MONEY.
Barre Savings Bank & Trust Co. Installs
New System.

To-day, March 10, the Barre Savings
Bank and Trust Co. announced that all
bills issued over its counters would first
have been subjected to a powerful dis
infection process. The Formalda- Rand
process. as it is called, is the result Of
exhaustive tests in research laboratories
conducted by expert psychologists. The
investigations showed conclusively that
money is dangerous source of conta-
gion
The bills examined averaged l42 ,001
living bacteria. 1t was found that there
is no relation between the amount OF
dirt and the number of bacteria pres
ent. The clcanest looking bill had 4O5,-
600 bacteria. while the bill that looked
dirtiest had but 3S.00u Cultures mace
from the scrapings of bank notes have
been injected into the peritoneal cavity
of guinea pigs, most of which died with
in "a hours.
The examination of coins showed them
to be almost free from disease germs
contrary to the popular apprehension.
1t was found that a metallic surface
offers little, if any, lodging place for
bacteria.
The Formalda Rand process subjects
the bank bills to the action of steam.
Formalda Rand gas and ammonia. The
bills are exposed at night in air-tight
compartments within the bank vaults for
fifteen hours continuously. The gas is
produced by a metallic generator with
out the use of fire or violent reaction
The chemicals employed are very power
full and known only to the inventors
The bank tellers are provided with
germicide compartments to disinfect cur
rency received and paid out during the
day. The process removes all disagree
able odor and renders the money clean

GOVERNMENT SEEDS
FOR DISTRIBUTION
Herald Readers Can Secure Supply
by Calling at This Office

The Herald has received a liberal
supply of government seeds from
Senators Jones and Poindexter. Any
one desiring to experiment with them
can secure an assortment free of
charge by calling at this office The
editor does not guarantee the quail
ity of the seed nor its adaptibility to
this soil and climate. He regards
this free seed perquisite of the MEM
bers Of congress as farce which
should be eliminated at the earliest
possible moment and believes that
the farmers attending the KennewIk
institute took the right position when
they framed the following letter to
Congressman La Toilette:
We are in receipt of your letter
saying that you are going to send
us a packet of seeds May we beg
of you to do nothing of the kind. DO
not burden the United States mail
with any such folly. You know this
is graft which benefits none but the
seed man who grows the worthless
seeds. You are not performing your
duty in sending them. but taking part
in fraud too patent to deceive any
one any longer. The only duty you
have in this connection is to intro
duce and support a bill to put an end
to this foolish attempt to deceive the
farmer. If you do not introduce such
a bill We will not vote for you again. "
However, the seeds are at this Of
flee and anyone is welcome to at
supply who will take the trouble to
ask for them.
