PUTTING TREES ON vERMoNT'S
IDLE ACRES.

The awakened interest in reforesta-
ton throughout Vermont has now swept
several large landholding corporations
into its enthusiasm, notably the Il. & L.
Fairbanks & Co. of st. Johnsbury, which
has just placed an order for 100000
white pines to be set out on land which
has been numbered over and is now ~
ing practically useless. Other corpora
tions engaged in this kind of endeavor
are the Newton & Thompson Manufac-
turing Co. of Brandon, the Estey Organ
Co. of Brattleboro, the Bridgewater
Wooden Co. and the Proctor Marble Co.
Inssmuch as these companies own con-
siderable areas in Vermont, it will mean
long stSp toward restoring the forests
of Vermont that they should become
interested in the movement. Much OF
this awakened interest must be due to
the efforts of the state forestry depart
ment under the direction of A. +. Halves,
and the results thus far shown justify
the establishment of such department
in Vermont's administrative life. Yer
mont has so many idle acres that they
ought to be put to use in raising trees
if nothing more.

THE DURABLE STREET PAVEMENT.

1t is noteworthy fact that the SUI
perintendent of streets in Springfield,
Mass, refuses TO recommend any but
granite pavement on certain street in
his city having fairly steep grade and
being used by heavy traffic. He says
that wood pavement is impraeticable
because it is too slippery for such a
grade and he says that re-paving with
bitulithie material would simply be a
waste of money. It is noteworthy fur
Their that the only strong argument adj
vanced against the use of granite blocks
on the street was because the library
and some of the schools were located
adjacent to the thoroughfare and it was
argued that the noise from the granite
would be serious detriment to the peo-
pie in the library and schools Possibly
the latter argument would hold in case
the joints between the granite blocks
were not fully pitched and in case there
was no fairly smooth cement concrete
covering for the blocks, but the argu-
ment is greatly minimized in force when
the paving of street with granite is

1t was natural that in their first ex-
perienee with the ballot the women of
Illinois should put it to unusual uses.
Therefore, the negro women of East st.
Louis, who wrote little billetsdoux to
the candidate on their ballots are excus-
able, although by their action they de-
feated their negro Office seeker. More
over, such kindly expressions as q hope

standing that the ballots are to be de-
livered in person to the candidates,
which shows again that the negro wom-
en- voters have wrong conception of the

In its current issue, the White River
Junction Landmark comes out in favor
of John w. Gordon as successor to Rep
resentatiye Frank Plumley and it gives
some very cogent reasons for its action
as all must admit who have personal
knowledge of Mr.. Gordon's qualifications
for the position in the national House
of Representatives. Faithful "effi-
Gent" Influential" fright in the prime
of life" and zone whose integrity has
never been questioned are some of the
reasons advanced by the contemporary,
capped by the qualification of being able
to advance shat needed restoration of
public confidence in the party" The
Landmark has sized up the candidate
quite well.
1t is morally certain that Mr. Gordon
would not be the tool of any faction, but
would act as he thought for the best
interests of all the people. Moreover,
he would not cling with grim pertinaeity
to that which is, just because it is, and
because he fears a change, but If apy-
thing better should develop he would be
found among those who supported that
which tended to bring about better
ment. At the same time he would not
be found chasing fads and foibles OF
legislation; he would be found keen to
progress, yet not swayed by impulse.
In short, the people of Vermont would
have in Mr. Gordon real champion.

WORKED FOR COVETED CAR
Boys Had Sense Enough to See "a.
theirs Position. and the Result
Was Good.

A farmer was considerably in debt;
his interest charge was about all 1t
was safe to be The boys were good,
hard-working, thoughtless, fun-loying
boys--just the natural sort. They
prayerfully besought their father to
buy a motor car This he did not
think he could afford The boys re-
sented his seeming stinginess. Then
tho man had an inspiration, relates
the breeders Gazette.
The oldest boy was set to keeping
an account of tho farm operations
expense and income. They credited
the place with all that they ought;
they charged to real estate bitches
and limestone spread; they inven.
taried at the beginning OF the year.
Then with the balance sheet before
them they made an intelligent analy-
sis of their position.
They had not yet reached the point
where they could afford the car-the
boys themselves decided that-bnt
theF were coming out from under the
debt. They had proof that this ven
ture was profitable and that they saw
where wise expenditure for fertilization
or for shelter would add to gains.
Like good business partners they laid
their plans and went on with their
work, more interested than ever, since
now the farming was game at which
they could skillfully play and hope
for winnings,
Then this same farmer told his BOYS
they should have the car as soon as
they asked for it, The sons. knowing
all about the conditions, replied that
they hoped to be ready for it in two
years.
