Before statement can be accepted
here, it must be supported by local testi-
mony-by the evidence of someone resid-

true, but we cannot prove them. Here

John NJ. Miles, Is Main St., Morrisville,

OF INTEREST TO VETERANS
Gettysburg Book Compiled by Thos c. Cheney
and Captain Frank Kehfield

Vermont at Gettysburg, July, 1868,
and Fifty Years Later, is the name OF
an interesting book, which has just been
published. The book is in cloth binding
and in pamphlet form. The book con-
tains about so pages, and is compiled by
the Vermont Gettysburg Commission, OF
whom the Secretary, the late Captain
Frank Kenfield of Morrisville had prin-
cipal part in the work with Hon. Thomas
c. Cheney, also of Morrisville.
The frontspiece is halftone OF General
George !. Stahnard, and following it
through number OF pages is brief his
tory of the original conflict at Gettys-
burg. written by Mr.. Cheney. Captain
Ken6eld is the author of the other prin-
cipal part of the little book entitled,
"Fiftieth Anniversary of the Battle of
Gettysburg" The work is illus trated
with halftones of monuments to General
Stannard and General Wells, and scenes
of the great 50th anniversary.
1t also contains lists of Vermont veter-
ans at the anniversary, and members of
Vermont regiments from outside the
State who registered at the celebration.
Altogether, it is a most creditable work
and should be of much interest, espec-
ially to veterans.

Output of Asbestos

Probably the majority of the people of
| Vermont do not realize that asbestos is
found and mined to any extent in this
| State, and a still less number know that
such is not only the case, but that Yer
mont leads every State in the Union in
production of the fire-proof material,
along with granite and maple products.
Some interesting statistics are given in
a pamphlet, THE production of Ashes
tos', published by the Department of
the Interior, United States Geological
Survey.
In 1907, in the little town of Lowell,
the Lowell Lumber &c Asbestos Com
pany, now the Chrysotile Asbestos Cor
poration, erected a mill on the south
western slope of Mount Bevidere, and
the following year began operations
The mill was gseaty enlarged in 1911,
and the output increased to its greatest
yield that year.
Owing to labor troubles and especially,
it is said, to the decline of trade in the
countries affected by the Balkan war,
the mill shut down during part of 1912.
and last year it was not operated at all.
Figures show that the largest annual
output of asbestos was in 1911, the ban
ner year of the Lowell company, when
1904 tons, valued at $112,935, were pro-
duced. In 1912 the output declined and
continued to decline the following year.
By these statistics it can be readily
seen that the principal output was from
Vermont, in fact about two-thirds of
the output comes from this State
However, the industry will be resumed
this year, according to w. G. Gallagher,
president of the Lowell company, who
states that electric power has been in-
stalled and the plant enlarged. TIE
work is practically completed.
One of the handicaps preventing
still greater production in Vermont
has been poor facilities for ship
ping the product, but this problem prom
Uses to be solved, according to Mr.. G al
lagher's statement.
A railroad will be built to Lowell,
either from johnson or Morrisvlle and
the output, according to Mr.. GallagherS
statement, should be enormously iu-
creased during the next few years.

Eve Never Ate the Apple

Woman is INDICATED. Vote for her.
She is not the original sinner Eve new
er spoke to a serpent in her life. She
didn't like apples. If it had been left to
Eve we would be living in the Garden of
Eden now aud the ladies would be wear
ing garments almost as bad as the take
alook ones of today.
But that unregenerate old Noah of
fermented grape juice fame had to inter-
fered.
He ate the apple. At least so a scien-
tific expedition sent out by the Univers-
ity of Pennsylvania has discovered. 1t
finds from a Nippur tablet that Noah
and not Eve was the original vegetarian.
This manuscripts. antedates, so the wise
ones say, any other manuscript attempt
ing TO place the blame for the stolen APP
pie on defenseless woman.
AS a matter of fact we never had
blamed Eve much for the apple episode
She probably wanted to eat of wisdom's
fruit in order to understand why in the
world Adam called all the animals by
the names he did.
Still, all honor to the expedition from
the University of Pennsylvania. 1t takes

VERMONT STATE FAIR
Big Exhibits in all Departments Dates Sep
fember Is to l8

The Vermont State Fair, an institution
that has grown the past seven years to
be one of Importance and magnitude,
will be held in White River Junction,
Tuesday, Wednesday Thursday and Fri
day, Sept. Is, 10, II and IS, and Secretary
Davia gives out the statement that the
fair will be larger in every department
than heretofore. He states that entries
are coming in earlier than usual and in
greater number.
The exhibit of Morgan horses, under
the direction of the Morgan Horse Club,
will, no doubt. show much improvement
in this notable breed of horses, and it is
anticipated that every stall in this de-
partment will be filed. The club has
been energetic the past year and as re-
suit the number of breeders of Morgans
has been increased. The club has DEM
onstrated that the breeding of Morgans
is profitable and its hope has been to
bring tho Morgan back to popularity and
this, too, in the State where the breed
originated. But the clubs influence has
extended beyond Vermont and horse
mentand of other States are breeding
Morgans. Many of the out of-State Nor
gans will be seen at the State Fair this
year.
The cattle exhibit will contain about
all the known breeds, from dairy breeds
to fat cattle. There is no place in New
England where cattle are shown in such
large numbers a. at the Vermont State
Fair.
Trotting this year will be conspicu
Gus feature, a large number of entries
having already been made. The vaude-
vile features and the midway will be
varied in character, planned to meet the
tastes of all visitors.
