If he wish to attend college; if so,
he would send him to a classical

him work at trade the succeeding

TO PLANT PINES
E. and 7. Fairbanks aud Co. To
RefOrest Some Of Their Large
Holdings of Land.

The largest order from a private
concern on the State Nursery of For
estry has been placed by the E. AMI
T. Fairbanks and Co., of this place
who have ordered 100000 white
pines which they will set out on
lands recently cut over and old pas
lures ready to go back into forest.
In announcing this order State For
ester A f. Hawes of Burlington says:
The progress along this line in Yer
mont has, therefore, been all the
mere gratifying. There is probably
no state in the country where a larg-
er percentage of the population has
undertaken forest planting than Yer
mont. Orders received by the State
Nursery are already larger than ever
before, and come from all classes of
owners. Farmers and lumbermen,
particularly, are making encouraging
beginnings, but perhaps the most
noticeable. work is that of several
manufacturing companies, which util-
ize a large amount of lumber and
wood in their business, and which
are beginning to raise the supply to
meet their own demands.
One of the first companies of this
kind to plant forests was the Newton
& Thompson Manufacturing Company
of Brandon, which uses large
amount of lumber in the manufacture
of toys and novelties. The Estey
Organ Company of Brattleboro, began
last year the raising of white pine
for the large boxes or crates in which
their instruments are packed. Other
manufacturing companies, similarly
interested, are the Bridgewater
Woolen Company, and the Vermont
Marble Company.
In speaking of the Scale COmpany's
venture in forestry Mr.. Hawes says:
This company, which uses large
amount of lumber every year, is to
plant 100000 white pines the pres
ent spring. According to the estI-
mates of the State Forestry Depart
ment, these trees, if properly planted
and protected, should produce in 0 |
years about 2 IL million feet of
lumber. At a stumpage value of $40 |
per thousand feet this plantation |
should be worth in 1854, about $685.
600. To a manufacturing company, |
like the Scale Company, it wall prob |
ably be worth more because OF their |
own special market.

MAY LEAVE ST. JoHNsBURY
Rev. Peter Black Has Two Calls
From Massachusetts Churches


From Massachusetts Churches
Notwithstanding the fact that the
wardens of Grace Methodist Episcopal
church voted unanimously at their
last quarterly meeting to ask for the
return of Rev. Peter Black for his
fifth year here, it is not certain he
will be returned. Rev. Mr.. Black
has proven such an effective preacher
that he has gained more than a state
wide reputation and has had calls
to accept the pastorate of the First
Methodist Episcopal church of Boston
and from the First Methodist church
of Lynn. 1t is probable the matter
will be decided at the meeting of the
New England Methodist Conference
which meets at Maiden, Mass. on the
18th.
The Vermont Methodist conference
is not held until the 22d, at Hard
wick and if Mr.. Black is transferred
the matter of filling the pastorate
here will be taken up at Hardwick.
The Laymen's Association of the
Vermont Conference will be held at
Hardwick, Saturday, April "a, and
will be addressed by Rev. Guy Potter
Benton president of the University
of Vermont.

Albertine Bernier. 1t was as follows:
To His Excellency Allen M. Fletcher,
Governor of Vermont.
Excellency,
The distinguished honor, your Ex-
cellency graciously designs to confer
on our school today, naturally calls
for an expression of dutiful thanks
and sincerest gratitude on our part.
We realize, however, that our
words cannot measure the depth of
our feelings; so we shall use the old,
but ever new expression: "Excellency,
A thousand welcomes in our midst"
While we are justly proud of the
honor and pleasure your presence in
spires, we recognize that higher
motive prompted it, that is, that you
consider education as necessary to
Wess so, for this too are we grateful.
Be assured, that no where will you
find hearts more loyal than in our
universities and schools, for
eve have learned at virtues shrine
Love of Country to combine
That throughout this fair State of
ours, the affection of a loyal people,
may ever greet you and that the best
gifts of Heaven fall in abundant
measure upon you, shall be the pray
er of the teachers and pupils of the
Parochial Schools of st. Johnsbury.
When the Governor rose to respond
he was presented with a beautiful
bouquet and one was also handed to
Rev. E. @. Drouhin, the prosecutors
being Irene Landry and Yvette Bach
and. Patriotic selections were played
by the Boys Band and patriotic songs
by the pupils of the school.
Rev. E. G. Drouhin gave a short
address speaking to his parishioners
in a very interesting way.
He was followed by DR.. Bachand
who spoke on education and the ad-
of His EXcellency and
in closing presented the governor.
The governor in his happy way
spoke earnestly on the subject of ed
ucation and of some Of the things he
had accomplished as a public servant. |
The governor spent the night at !
the home of DR.. Bachand and left on |
