A SELECTION OF BULBS.

For those who have not yet secured
their supply of bulbs for winter and
spring, suggestion as to varieties
may be found helpful The writer has
found the following very satisfactory:
Tulips-La Refine (white), Queen of the
Netherlands pink, Yellow Prince,
Rose Grisdelin (white with pink tips,
Couronne dor (orange), Murillo pink)
and Rubra MaXima deep rcd. Of
those named the blossoms of the first
four are single, and of the last three
double. Of the narcissi, the double
Won Sion and Orange Phoenix are
among the best, while Of the single
varieties the Emperor and Empress
are very satisfactory. Of the hya-
cinths the Gigantea (blush pink, La
Grandesse (white) General Pelissier
(bright red and L'Esperance (bright
deep violet are among the choicest.
The bulbs should be put in rich sandy
earth, in pots or in groups in boxes
about an inch below the surface, and
the pots and boxes containing them
submerged in earth in still larger
boxes. They should be watered
enough to keep the earth moist. but
ed we'll the pots may be brought up
as desired, depending upon whether
one wishes early or later bloom. The
bulbs are easily handled, and no fami-
1y should be without a few to give
bloom when other flowers are scarce

Seed Testing in Windsor County.

Many of the school superintendent
in Windsor county are cooperating
with the county agricultural agent IN
movement to encourage the testing of
seeds in our schools. The plan is for
the children to bring samples of corn
and other seeds to the school, where
under the direction of the teacher.
tests of termination and vigor will be
made. This work may be made of
great value from both an educational
and economic standpoint. Every year
there are a great many crop yields
decreased due to poor seed and many
of these might be prevented by the
20 operation of parents and children in
De an advantage for the parents to
encourage the older boys and girls to
test the seeds at the school previous
to planting time in the spring? In the
communities where this work is under
taken, people are urged to support the
1eacher and pupils in the good work.
Chittenden county boasts of the
largest cow testing association in the
state. is having 26 members and over
500 cows subject to test. At it's last
meeting thirteen of its members
agreed to employ farm expert at a
salary of $1,000 per year to work on
their farms alone. So far as known
this is the first action of it's kind in
this country and it will be watched
with much interest. 1t is the result
our county farmers association should
lead to, the profitable employment of
an expert to assist the farmer in
bringing his farm up to its most profit
able production.

Is the Criticism Merited.

Since the close of the campaign some
of the people opposed to the licensed sale
of liquor have openly criticised the posi-
ton taken by this paper. The MINER has
always given its opponents credit tor sim
cerity and believed that they may have
thought their position to have been right
but that some of them lacked that sinceri-
ty is exemplihed in their vote. The
MINER has always been for the best well
fare of the community and State and its
influence has always been on the side that
would bring the business to the country.
We believe that the licensed saloon is far
preferable to the unlicensed bootegger,
which we have every evidence that we
will have to deal with if the saloons are
closed. The view we have on the subject
is covered so well that we quote from a
speech of Dr. Charles w. Elliott, of Hair
ward University, one of the foremost edu-
Gators of the world and man of high
ideals and sterling integrity
There has been concurrent evil of pro-
hibtory legislation. The efforts to en-
force it during forty years have had some
unlocked for effects on public respect Of
courts, and for officers of the law, legisla-
tors and public servants. The public has
seen the law de6ed. whole generation
of habitual lawbreakers schooled in
evasion and shameessness courts inefec-
tive on account OF fluctuations of policy;
delays, perjuries, negligence and other mis-
carriages of justice; officers of the law
double-faced and mercenary, Legislators
timid and insncere, candidates for office
hypocritical and trucking, and ofhce-hold-
ers unfaithful to their pledges and reason
able public expectation. Through an agi-
tation which has always had moral end,
these immoralities have been developed
and made conspicuous.
