CIVIL WAR ENDED
FIFTY YEARS AGO
Anniversary Of Final Scene in
Struggle Between North
and South.
WHEN LEE AND GRANT MET
Historic Event at Appomattox Court
House as Described by Gen. Hor.
ace Porter-Contrast Between
the Two Great Soldiers.

Washington.-Fifty years ago, IN
the quiet and peaceful little village OF
Appomattox Court House, Va, was
enacted one of the most memorable
scenes in the history Of that civil
strife waged for over four long years
between the North and South, the sur
render of the Army of Northern Vir-
ginia under Gen. Robert E. Lee to
Gen. U. S. Grant, commander in chlet
of the Union forces.
A half century of time has served
to blot out the memory of the causes
that led up to the conflict, but those
still living who bore arms during the
strife, and especially the veterans un-
der the immediate commands OF Cen
erals Lee and Grant, can hardly be
expected to forget the day upon which
the leader of the Confederate forces
in the field decided to submit to what
he sincerely believed was the inevlta-
BILE.
Follow Lees Example.
Although the surrender Of Lee
marked the official ending of the war,
there were some of the Confederate
commanders who refused to believe
that their cause was lost one and
made strong efforts to continue the
fighting When the news of the sur
render was brought to General Echols,
in command of the department OF
Southwest Virginia, council of his
brigade commanders was held to de-
eide whether or not they should give
up. Several of the cavalry leaders
strongly expressed the determination
that they should 1T off surrender as

Of Interest to Farmers

Vermont farmers purchasing seed pc
tatoes from outside the state this spring
should use great care that the new and
dangerous disease, Powdery Scab, is not
introduced thereby.
The Federal Horticultural Board of the
United States Department of Agriculture
has guaranteed, on account of the pow
derry scab, the following areas.
Nearly all of Aroostock county and
portions of PenobScot and Washington
coupties in the state of Maine, and the
counties of Clinton and franklin in the
state of New York. These areas contain
the chief sources of supply of the large
seed houses of the country. Therefore,
all seed purchased by Vermont farmers
which are known positively not to have
been grown outside of these infested
areas should be carefully examined by
Vermont farmers before planting and
speci mems of tubers showing any signs of
scab should be sent to the Vermont Elk
pertinent Station, Burlington. VT, by
prepaid express or by parcel post, in
packages marked with the address of the
sender
Powdery scab differs from the common
scab in that the seed cannot be treated
by any known method so that the spores
are killed and in Europe cankerous
stage of the disease sometimes causes al
most complete loss of the crop.
It means much to Vermont farmers to
keep this disease out of the state, be-
cause the penalty for not doing so will
be the loss of an opportunity to develop
profitable seed potato industry and will
mean the issuing of a quarantine by the
Federal Government which will make it
necessary to have all Vermont potatoes
shipped outside of the state carefully in
spected.
A little care exercised at this time, so
that the disease may not be introduced,
will save lot of trouble and expense in
the future. K. S. BRIGHAM,
Com missioner of Agriculture.

In the Tyrol the Easter festival is one

tries, which had been in preparation
for days, and the entire week was
given over to the celebration.
The egg always played an impor-
tant part in these celebrations Of
Easter, In the early English days the
eggs were very highly colored and
decorated with landscapes and elabo-
rate inscriptions. While most of the
old elaborate displays have fallen into
disuse, the egg in some form yet re-
mains a feature of Easter in modern
times. In Vienna the Easter egg is
made of silver, mother of pearl and
bronze, filled with all sorts of knick-
knacks and quaint devices.
The Tyrolese peasants yet retain
very pretty custom of celebrating
Easter, in which the egg figures prom
inently. On Easter eve bands of mu-
sicians traverse every valley, singing
holiday hymns. Their picturesque
hats are adorned with flowers. Crowds
of children accompany them and at
night carry torches of lighted pine
wood. AS they pause before each
house the people come to the doors
and pour eggs into the baskets of the
singers, while they themselves join in
the chorus.
In olden times the Polish endeav-
ored to surpass one another in elabo-
rate Easter display and sumptuous
feasts.

Were striving again for birth.

And the soul of man REBORN"

THE DAY OF light
Saxon Festival of Easter Was
Regarded by Them as the
Queen of All.

IN ANCIENT times the SaXons were
i worshipers of the heather goddess

was transferred to the Christian
feast which, in the Saxon church. was

by the priests elevating in full view
of the people the supposed body of the
risen Christ.
In connection with the celebration
in the churches the people INDUCED in
feasting and rejoicing in their own
homes. This was but natural reac-
tion from the rigorous fast of Lent i'm
posed by the church, during which no
meat whatever was eaten and on Good
Friday no food at all was permitted
upon the tables. Even the most de-
