The report that Gov. Foss is to flop
to the Progressive party is an effort
perhaps to discredit him-not, however,
to discredit the Progressive party, let
us hasten TO add. As is well known.
Foss once was a Republican; in fact,
he was Republican for a long time,
or right up TO middle life. when the
Democratic party got him and gave him
three successive elections 70 the Massa-
chusetts governorship. But during his
political successes, there has been a con-
slant baekfire on Gov Foss, and great
many efforts have been made to dis
credit him. to show that be topped
merely from desire for personal aggrani
izement. Nevertheless. he has stood mp
under them all; and the present insin-
ustion viii scarcely break him. Be
sides Foss probably knows he Is better
of as he is.

An Imaginary Octopus.

Much has been written of late about
the so-called waterpower trust pictured
as an octopusl which is "approprating
the peoples property" and making it
yield vast sums of money Brattleboro,
situated within easy reach of the tenta
Giles of this monster, is inclined to
view these stories with mingled feel
ings of amusement and ennui. This
towns experience with the alleged pow
er monopoly has not been of the
kind to inspire fear of its future ex-
pansion. The present large power de-
velopment on the Connecticut river be-
low this town was brought about only
after years of effort on the part of 10.
cal business men to interest capital in
the project. Ever since il has been in
operation Brattleboro's industrial well
fare has been increasing, and il can be
said truthfully that the towns present
bright prospects are in large measure II
result of the power plant. II is true
that a large part of the power gener-
ated at the Vernon dam is transmitted
to Massachusetts. but if this had not
been possible il is improbable that the
dam would have been built. The fact
remains that there is power available
for every industry that wishes TO To-
cate in this section. II is more to the
the interests of the power company than
to anyone else to have them close TO
the power plant,
The same capitalists that brought
about the Vernon development are now
developing power on the Deerfield river
and there is no doubt that the Deer
field valley will enjoy enormous bene-
fits therefrom. The same prediction
may be made with relation to Bellows
Falls where these interests have bought
the property of the local canal company.
All the power now being developed at
Bellows Falls is under lease to its pres
ent users for a long term of years, so
that the only opportunity of the new
owners is TO make more power by more
efficient Development project which
the people of Bellows Falls would no
doubt welcome

One of the distressing features OF the
gift making season is the temptation
which it places in the way of the NOR
ally weak to steal from the stores in
order to make friends glad perhaps, or
at least to share in the material joys
OF the day. Then there is another class
of shoplifters who are financially able
to participate in the gift-giying by

IMPROVEMENT OF FARM EGGS
Government Bulletin Contains Result
Of Careful Study Of Industry In
State Of Kansas,

Every reader should read circular
141 entitled "The improvement of, the
Farm Egg" issued by the department
of Agriculture, Washington, D. G.
Among other things this contains the
results of the careful study made OF
the industry in the state of Kansas,
where an effort has been made to
bring about an organization of the
egg industry and the cooperation OF
the state authorities for the purpose
Of compelling the traders In eggs to
buy on quality basis only. There is
no question in our mind but that the
result OF the investigation in Kansas
will be that the case count" system
Will be discarded in the very near fu-
lure and there will be substituted In
Its place the "loss-off" method of buy
Ing, says an exchange. When this goes
Into force it will be squarely up to
the egg producer to handle his, product
30 that when 1t is marketed 1t will
be In first class condition. We pre-
dict that there will be a very radical
change in the next few yearstin this
matter and as a word to the wise is
sufficient, 1t will be enough to again
suggest to our readers that they send
to the department Of agriculture,
D. O.. for this circular.

PROPER HOUSING OF POULTRY
Chief Requisites Of Building Arc
Dryness, Perfect Ventilation and
Plenty Of Sunlight.

frequently poultry keepers com.
plain bitterly of the failure of their
fowls to show profit, when the whole
fault lies in defective housing.
Poultry lead an entirely artificial
life when they live penned in a run
Or even when at liberty and provided
with sleeping g-house-that is to say
they have their food provided them
and do not sleep in the trees, as their
natural instinct would teach them.
1t is simply the difference between
sleeping in a house and sleeping in
trees that upsets them. When they
do the latter, they may not lay well
but they keep their health. More than
half the diseases modern fowls suffer
are caused primarily by this defective
housing
The chief requisites of house are
that it should be weather-proof, SC
that whatever the inclemency of the
season, the fowls keep dry. 1t must
be provided with ample ventilation
and should have a sunny aspect.
The sun is life to all animals, and
the more fowls get of it, the better.
Yet, sometimes, fowl houses are
placed in dark, secluded corners, and
built to admit hardly any light. A

sible, be placed on ground sloping
Slightly away from 1t, then in the wet
weather the rain drains away. If the
ground is quite level the rain off the
roof shows tendency to remain in
the form of puddles.
A trench should be dug to carry IT
away, or better STILL there should be
a spout on the roof to carry the wet
away down to down spout connected
with surface drain.
1t is important that the ground
around the house. as well as the house
itself, be kept dry, as fowls never dc
well on wet land.
Special attention should be paid tc
the roof. The caves should overlap
some three inches, and it is all the
better if built of stouter wood than
the walls.
There is no necessity to cover the
roof with felt, provided 1t receives q
good dressing Of tar at first and
further coat each year. On no &C.
count make the roof of corrugated
zinc.

winter and hot in the summer. II the

never any smell.
Ventilation is subject better un.

dulge in more of 1t for ourselves and
more for the fowls. Yet for them as
for ourselves, we must not forget that
the thing can be overdone and that

"ee' u'Se' direction and the
Life" The Church will be the first
from humanity to receive eternal life,
and they will be granted a share with
Jesus in His resurrection to glory,
honor and Immortality, as His Bride,
His Joint-heir under His Headship.
Then, as said the Apostle, will come
the world of mankind. every man in
his own order"
Jesus put the statement about the
maids being asleep in forceful way,
in order to impress the great lesson
that death does not end all. even
though it appears so to do. The awak-
ening which He was about to perform
was to be a lesson and illustration of
Divine power, which will be exercised
toward the entire race under the Mes
sianic Kingdom. Thus, as He de-
clared, "All that are in their graves
shall hear the voice of the Son of
Man, and come forth"
The world will come forth, Jesus
said, that they may have a resurrec-
ton or raising up, up, up to perfection,
to all that was lost in Eden, to all that
was redeemed at Calvary. The awak-
ening will be but preparatory step.
1t will be accomplished instantane-
ously, but the further raising up. to
mental, moral and physical perfection.
will be a gradual work. for which
thousand years has been apportioned,
and in which the individual will be
obliged to cooperate for his advance
ment and instruction in righteousness.
This resurrection of mankind in gen
eral Jesus styled, "The resurrection Of
judgment'-by disciplines. by trials
and testings. Only those who W.T.
fully reject the Lord and His way will
die the Second Death, from which
there will be no resurrection

7T HEN JESUS and the Apos-
ties returned to the vicin'
~ ity of Capernaum, the peo-
pie were on the lookout for
them, especially Jairus, one of the
rulers of the synagogue. He came and
fell at Jesus feet in great distress. He
besought Him to come and heal his
little daughter who lay at the point of
death. AS they went to the house of
Jairus the multitude followed and
thronged and delayed the procession.
Meantime n messenger arrived from
Jairus house, telling that the child
was dead. But Jesus said to the be
reaved father, BE not afraid, only be
lieve.'
The multitude was left. and only
three of the Apostles, Peter, James and
John, went on with Jesus and Jairus.
When they arrived they beheld a great
tumult connected with the customary
weeping and wailing. Jesus astonish-
ed the mourners by telling them not
to weep. that the child was not dead,
but asleep. What did He mean? Did
the Great Teacher prevaricate? He
spoke in the same manner in respect
to His friend Lazarus. saying, "LaZa-

of Leland, Idaho, which is an inland
town six miles from Kendrick, are
now getting ready to build a new
store building. The size of which
Will be 5Ox1O0 feet with a two story
height This means great thing
for the town and will make it more
convenient for them to handle the
Immense stock of up-to-date mer-
chandise they are handling. These
people purchased this stock of goods
last November and since that time
they have added about $40, 900 more
IN the way of goods, making it one
of the most desirable places to trade
YOU could ask for. The proprietors
are F. M. Talbot & Sons, who are
up to the minute business men and
there is no reason why they should
not prosper in such a field as the
have surrounding them.

Kendrick can now boast of having
a hotel that can accommodate the
commercial and travelling public in
the right way and the proprietor E. c.
Hardison. deserves the patronage of
the same, for in the past few weeks
he has spent considerable money in
equipping the place with the best
money can buy. The Barnum Lum-
Der and Construction Company have
Just finished the building and turned
it over to the owner B. Emmett and
they have done their part in making
it convenient for a hotel. The place
now consists of twenty rooms and
every room is furnished with new
beds and furniture, and the house
is heated with stoves in nearly every
room. Mr.. Hardison purchased his
goods from the Rowlands Furniture
house in this city and among the
articles are the mattresses the makes
which are the best, the names of them
are; Sealy, Rosefelt, Ostermore, and
Carman Delux. The place also con-
tains toilet and bath room on the
second floor. 1t is worth ones time
to look at the arrangement of things.
The proprietor wishes to make it un-
derstood that he will appreciate a
continuance of your patronage as
well as any new business.
