PENDANT said he did not know their
value.
He testified that he went 10 Boston
Aug. II to buy horses and that when
he came back he found the plaintiff
had again left his home. a letter was
introduced that he had written the
plaintiff the day following his return
from Boston and on the back of the
envelope was 'Brattleboro' and the
letter "B' in typewriting. An effort
was made to show that the paper used
was typewriter paper and that the let

an attorney, but the defendant insisted
that he wrote it in his home and that
the paper used was some he found
among Miss Cutters papers. He adj

not and that any money she had from
him she had taken.
He insisted that there was no ques

FREQUENT
ON THE ISLAND
Booze Carried c-cr in Suitcases-
Hinsdale officers Cop Three Of
fenders-Fines Imposed.

Holdups for money are said to be
of frequent occurrence on the island,
persons going from Brattleboro to
Hinsdale being held up with demands
for whiskey or money. Liquor, it IS
said is being sold on the island regular
ly by persons who carry it over in
suitcases, but few buyers there get
away with it. 1t is taken from them
so they lose both the price and the
liquor.
The Hinsdale police made a visit
there a few days ago and took three
captives back in an automobile, leaving
half a dozen behind in various stages
of intoxication. Two were fined and
one was sent to the county farm.
Men who have occasion to cross the
island in the daytime say it is a com
mon occurrence to see, even in the
cooler days, men stretched out beside
the road badly under the influence of
liquor. They become holder after dark
and are using every means, even to
violence, to get money and liquor. It is
understood that the Hinsdale authori-
ties intend to break up the custom.

cotton, which, department experts have
found ''far inferior to cotton ordinarily
produced in those sections"
Field tests by the department on
numerous varieties have shown that
half and half" does not maintain a
high rank in total lint yield per acre.
Its lint is of poor character, irregular.
Wasty and very short, much of it less
than seven-eights of an inch in length
and untenderable on future contracts
under the cotton futures law.
The department points out that buy
ers will penalize it whenever discovered,
and many interior buyers as we'll as
practically all of the larger cotton
firms, have declined to handle it at any
price. The departments warning says
production of the half and half
variety will be likely to seriously
damage the reputation of the market

Mr.. W. 7. Loggins, Someryille, Tenn.
DEAR Mr.. LOGGINS:
We want to prepare a Memorandum
of Agreement for the Washington
Office in regard to the employment of
MIR. MofIatt another year, and we
would like to be advised whether or not
the $500 90 has been raised to supple
ment Mr.. Moffatt's salary, as last year?
Thanking you in advance for an early
reply, | am, Yours very truly,
H. D. TATE, Assistant Director,
Division of Extention.
The above letter explains itself. 1t
came to this Office ten days ago and up
to this time we have been unable to
answer it and say the $500 has been
raised. At this writing, Wednesday,
we lack 500 of having the $500 SUBJ
scribed. We have urged farmers and
others to send US their subscriptions
but responses are not coming as rapidly
as we would like for them to come.
From this letter you will see that we
are being urged to sign the memo
randum agreement which is a guarantee
for the salary. $500. The writer begs
to state that he signed this guarantee
last year and when the hard times came
it was impossible to collect a number
of the subscriptions and the writer bore
the loss. thus paying more than $50 of
the last years salary. We are not
disposed to sign this guarantee this year
until subscriptions to cover same are
made by responsible parties. The move
ment has done the county in good work
many times its cost and tmust be carried

that the local postoffice has never had

was. She retired from the position
some months ago with the best wishes
of the patrons of the office.
