that a girl about II years old had been
employed as man in the kitchen at the
Brooks house at Brattleboro. She went
to the hotel from Fort Drummer mill
dressed in male attire, and was hired,
being assigned to room with male
employee. She attended meetings of the
Salvation Army and became acquainted
with the young men of the village, sue
cessfully concealing her identity. Sus-
picious acquaintance finally forced the
truth from the girl, who was thereupon
fitted out in proper clothing. Just what
she expected to gain by eoncealing her
identity has not been learned

Time to cut Sweet Glover for Hay
The time TO cut sweet clover for
hay will depend largely upon whether
the crop is in its first or second year
of growth Generally speaking, only
one crop can be obtained the first
year, and this should not be cut until
the crown sprouts begin TO show.
This cutting may be close, as the plant
will have sufficient time to obtain
certain amount OF growth ere the
cold weather arrives, and thus be able
to withstand the cold winter.
during the second year of growth
two or three crops of hay may be OBJ
tanned if the proper precautions are
exercised. The first cutting should
be made just previous to the time that
the plant begins to bloom and should
be done so as to leave a few branches
and leaves on each plant. Ii cut
close at this time the majority of the
plants will be killed. The second cut
ting should be done in exactly the
same manner as the first, while the
third and last cutting may be made
close TO the ground.
It is somewhat difficult to say just
