Cd this year from Wednesday night,

day night. October 23rd, at the same
time. Services will be held at Temple
Jacob, Hancock. The festival lasts
regularly eight days and is celebrated
by all Jews throughout the world. il
was celebrated 10y the Jews when thoy
lived In Palestine as an agricultural
festival. and marked the close Of the
harvest ana the beginning of the
blowing and rainy season. II was a
festival OF rejoicing and merry making
when the servant was equal to the
master and all united III praising and
tnanking God for His bountiful gifts.
The Bible commanded that on this
festival all the people should make a
pilgrimage to the Temple at Jerusalem,
and there. after Offering their sacri-
ices, should dwell in booths OF tabor
nacles. hastily erected OF wood and
beautifully decorated with fruits and
l'owels 10 remind them both Of The
harvest season and how their ance3-
tors had dwelt in booths in the well
derness. Many Jews still observe the
latter custom today. I'm some syna-
Sogucs, too. a modcrnizcd form Ut the
harvest festival is celebrated.
Some also celebrate supplementary
festival on the ninth day, called Re-
joicinS of the Law. because on that
Cay the sacred scrolls Of the Law Cf
Moses are rolled back to the beginning
Of Genesis ana arc begun to be read
anew. In mfmy sSnasoSues the scrolls
are taken from the holy ark, in which
they 1r" kept aud carried about in
solemn procession.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inf1amed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inf1amed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an inf1amed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars for any
case of deafness ,(cauSed by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.

The reasonableness of present tele-
phone rates, and the equity involved
in the rates fixed in the recent order
of the public service commission, are
topics for discussion at a hearing
which began, before the commission.
at Montpelier Sept. %. Fifty of the
100 companies copartners and individ
uals cited to appear at this hearing
were represented by officials and
counsel, more than 100 men and two
women, besides several stenographers.
Forty companies and individuals made
no appearance, being satisfied it is
alleged with the maximum rates fixed
by the commissions order.
Governor Fletcher was not present
at the opening, but Lieut.. Howe
was there, and the state was otherwise
represented by Messrs. Deavitt. Ora
ham and Cook. The New England
Telephone company's interests were
represented by M. B. Jones of Boston,
general counsel of the company; w.
B. C. Stickney of Bethel, j. G. Sargent
of Ludlow, former attorney general,
and J. w. Redmond of Newport, for
mer chairman of the public service
commission and others.
The independent group was repre-
sented by H. B. Howe of ST. Johns
bury. F. G. Fleetwood of Morrisville
and E. A. Harvey of Montpelier and
the others by their officials or owners.
No less than Is rooms have been
engaged for the New England COM
pany alone at the Pavilion. ready for
long siege if necessary.
At the opening of the hearing the
answer of the New England company
to the states declaration was read, in
which a general denial was made of
the claims of the state regarding
excessive rates charged.
Witnesses from many independent
companies have been heard and adj
journment was taken on Saturday
until Wednesday of this week. Little
of vital concern has yet been learned
although it appeared from the general
trend of the testimony of the indie
pendents that their present rates are
not high enough. 1t also developed
that the territory of some companies
doing business under contract with
the New England company was limited
It is expected that there will be g
clashing Of counsel when the New
England witnesses are put on the
stand.
1t is likely that the hearing may
last ten days or two weeks longer

HAY CAPS FOR ALFALFA.

Alfalfa should be raked and either
put in the barn or if it is not sufficient.
ly dry, put into hay cocks. 1t is mat.
ter Of economy to have two or three
hundred hay caps (made Of six-cent
cloth one yard square) to use in case
Of bad weather. You may think this
is considerable bother, but poor al.
falfa is poor stuff, and when we re-
member that good alfalfa brings US in
actual results nearly as great returns
as wheat bran, we can better realize
the importance Of taking care of it.
If any of us had 500 'hay cocks of
bran" in the field, we would take care
of them, but with alfalfa we think OF
it as "just hay"
These cloths may have wooden pegs
or some sort of weights attached to
each corner to hold them in place; the
pegs can be pushed into the hay to
hold the corners fast. Hay caps will
soon pay for themselves in finer
quality of hay guaranteed by their
use.

A suit to recover the sum of $40, 600

Maine, bringing to judicial attention
what started little more than a year
and a half ago in neighborhood
wrangle at Swans island. The plain

false statements the defendants influ-

against him when he appeared before
the Vermont board of medical regis
tration July 7, 1913. to answer charges
which, they, the defendants, had

of having his Vermont license revoked.

The Coming State Corn Show.
The Second Vermont State Corn
show which was held in Windsor last
fall was much more largely attended
and surpassed in many ways the show
ing made by the New England Corn
Exposition last year in Boston. At
present preparations are being hurried
for the Third Vermont State Corn
show in Windsor, Nov. 5-6-7, which
will far excel last years exposition.
This mammoth Kennedy arena, in
which it is to be held again, is a
structure 800 feet log and 80 feet in
| width which is second only to the
Mechanics Hall in Boston for size.
| The management means to make it
an instructive and wholesome exhibit
| ton without the many commercialized
features that are common to many
shows and exhibitions in these days.
| AS an encouragement to our young
! farmers who. are staying at home try
ing to develop the resources Of the
state the corn show with its various de-
partments and additional features has
untold possibilities. The exhibits have
been varied and of credit to the state.
This year. as in the past, only Vermont
grown exhibits will be permitted to
compete for prizes.
Among the special features this year
will be: the exhibits made under the
direction of the five county agricultu-
raj agents at work in the state, by
demonstrators and others interested in
the Farm Management Field studies
and demonstration plot work, the
grange department, etc.
The exhibit made by the Windsor
County Boys and Girls Poultry Club
will be one of the attractions as will
the exhibits to be made by the various
school and community clubs.

One of the most encouraging signs
of the times in this part of Vermont is
the tendency toward lyceum and enter
tainment courses in our towns and
villages. And the best of it is they
appear to be self-supporting. No de.
cadent community ever supported a
lecture course or course of high-class
entertainments year after year. The
towns we have in mind are small
places but support course of really
high character which must have an
influence on the community for good.
Glover is conspicuous example of a
small town supporting year after year
first class lecture and entertainment
course. Irasburg is another place
which deserves credit for giving it's
people course of entertainments that
would do credit to much larger places.
Craftsbury has also given the people
of that vicinity fine course of eleva-
ting entertainments for several years.
Albany must also be mentioned here
and of course the villages of Barton,
Orleans and Newport have for a long
time supported these enterprises. Let
the good work prosper and may the
people support these uplifting com.
munity affairs.
