M srble Plant Destroyed.

The most disastrous fire to visit Rut.
land in years totally destroyed the
marble finishing shop of the Temple
Brothers on West street early Thursday
morning, entailing loss to the firm of
about $35, 900, only part of which is
covered by insurance.
One of the principal items of loss
was the stock, much of it finished, and
one Car load boxed ready for shipping
that morn ng. Only small portion of
the marble escaped damage, some of
hat being on the dock and elsewhere
The origin of the fire is not known.

by tramps who were spending the
night about the place, by the dropping
of lighted match or cigarette.

frightened horse until one shoe was
worn off.

Spring Culture of Wheat.

Narrowing wheat in the spring is q
practice that is receiving considerable
attention OF late years. Where the
ground is compacted hard from beating
rains of early spring, followed by rath-
err dry weather, the narrowing of wheat
with a drag harrow is good practice.
So far experiments have shown at
the Missouri station, however, the har-
rowing of wheat is not always suffi-
GENTLY beneficial to pay for the work
although where one harrows in clover
seed at the same time the practice is
usually a paying one.
Where the wheat is badly "heaved''
the use of a heavy roller in the early
spring is good practice. All depends,
however. upon the extent of the "heav-
ing"

ADDISON COUNTY FAIR.
Price List of Tickets This Year.

There have been some changes in the
prices for some of the tickets for the
big fair of the society this fall, and a
more complete explanation is given
herewith in order that there will be no
misunderstanding. The principal change
is in the membership ticket, which
formerly cost 81 90 and admitted the
holder throughout the fair, as well as
comforting the right of membership in
the society for one year. According to
this years plan the 81 ciety sells the
membership tickets at % cents and
with each membership ticket gives one
coupon ticket which is good for one adj
mission by the payment of an adj
ditional ten cents. In other words,
the 35 cents paid will not only admit
the holder to the fair, but will also in
clude the full privilege of membership
in the society.
The other tickets are sold as follows
Exhibitors ticket, $1OO; admits
owner, who must be a bona-fda ex-
hibitor, during the fair. The main
reason why the exhibitors ticket has
been reduced is to attract exhibits with
as small cash outlay as possible.
Child's exhibit ticket 25 cents; admits
children under Is years, during the fair,
who make an exhibit in the child's de-
partment.
Grand stand tickets, rs cents; admits
to grand stand; good for the whole day
for which ticket is issued.
Grand stand reserved seat tickets, so
cents; good for reserved seat, same con-
ditions as the regular grand stand
ticket.
Single ticket, So cents; good for one
admission to the grounds.
Child's ticket, Is cents; children be-
tween six and twelve years.
Team ticket, single or double, 25
cents.
Automobile ticket, so cents.
The five last-named tickets may be
purchased in advance, in any quantity,
on and after Aug. 18th at the Slater
drug store, Mddlebury, but they will
be honored only for the days for which
they are issued.
The membership tickets may be had
from the directors, who are located at
convenient points throughout the
county. ADV.

ADDISON COUNTY COURT.
CONTINUED from Page IL

by Mr.. Simonds for the contestants.
The court rendered judgment on this
question at Up. m. and upheld the will
and the three codicils. The contestants
propose to appeal the case to the Su-
preme court.
At the opening of the afternoon ses
sion, which was somewhat delayed.
Judge Taylor rendered the judgment of
the court on the question in the will
case argued in the forenoon. The court
sustained the contention of the pro
ponents on every point, thus overrul-
ing the verdict of the jury on three
points out of the four and adjudged that
the will of 1897 with the codicils an
nexed, was the last will and testament
of Columbus Smith. Numerous objec-
tons and exceptions have been taken
by the contestants, so that the case
will go to the Supreme court and this
action of the county court will not be
by any means the end of the matter.
The counsel for the contestants asked
that in view of the fact that the jury
had decided three-fourths of the points
in their favor t1ree-fourths of the costs
of both this trial and the one of last
winter should be taxed against the pro-
ponents, and the court held this matter
under advisement, Lawyer Stickney
stating to the court that he should
advise his clients on the winning side to
be generous rather than Just.
In the case of G.. William Steinbach
VS. John M. Holler and trustees, the
Rutland Railroad company, in which
the plaintiff sued for extra salary which
he claimed to be due him as superin-
tendent of construction of the under
pass at the railr ad passenger station.
The judgment was for the defendant to
recover his costs. This case was heard
by the court. In the case of N. Will
Foster VS. Hebert d. Taylor and trustee,
the Mutual Life Insurance company of
New York. judgment for an unnamed
amount was given against the principa al
defendant and the matter of the trustee
ship was held open for the present.
Judgments were entered in the fol
lowing divorce cases heard during the
term: Daisy H. Hill VS. Howard J.
Hill, bill granted for wilful discretion
and custody of minor children decreed
to the petitioner. Della H. Cough VS.
George E. Cough, bill granted for
willful diss ertion and custody of minor
children decreed to the petitioner.
Florence Scott VS. Henry Scott, bill
granted for intolerabe severity and
custody of minor children given to the
petitioner.
At the conclusion of the disposition of
the will case at the afternoon session,
it was found that there was no other
business to come before the court and
at 2:45 o'clock, under direction of the
Judge, Sheriff DIN A. Smith of Addison
declared the June term of the Addison
county court adjourned without date.

TYING UP A FLEECE.

Directions For the Proper Care of the
Wool Growers Crop.
First, all the tag locks must be re-
moved, whether they be dung or
grease and dirt, writes w. G. Coffey
Of the Illinois station, describing the
proper way to tie up a fleece: second,
the fleece should be carefully rolled
up by hand mot in wool box, with
no ends or stray locks protruding and
with the flesh side out; third, the
fleece should be tied with q hard,
glazed Irvine, not larger than one
eighth inch in diameter In tying the
ends of the Irvine especial care should
be taken to make a firm, hard knot
that will not slip.
Tag locks are not so common that
their presence in fleeces from farm
focks is the rule rather than an ex-
ception. The total effect of leaving
them on fleeces is bad. 1t puts our
woods in bad standing with wool
houses and manufacturers. Long con-
tinued, it has led to the only logical
result-namely, discrimination in price
against our woods.
Careful rolling, with the flesh side
out and no ends or stray locks show
ing adds greatly to the appearance Of
the fleece. 1t also prevents mixing
the wool from different feeces. and,
by the way, each fleece should be tied
to itself. In the wool warehouse 1t
is pretty sight to see the heaps of
graded wool faced with a tier of care
fully rolled and tied feeces.

Why Rely on Corn2

In sections where corn has not prov

where corn fails. Then why rely on
