Point to Fact That Canned Ha.

The advertising committee of the
Fruit Growers Association OF Porto
Rico, after several months careful
consideration of the question, has sub
mitted to the association a report say
ing: Advertising of Porto Rico CT
trus fruits and pineapples is a neces-
sity If these fruits are expected to
maintain their position in the mar
ket."
The committee suggests an adyer-
tising campaign to cover ali cities of
$4,000 or more population throughout
the New England and Atlantic States,
says that $4,000 is the minimum
amount needed to start such cam.
paign, and urges that the advertising
be undertaken at once.
IL Is proposed to raise funds for ad-
vertising by means of an assessment
of two cents per box on all fruit
shipped, ALI fruit contributing to
such fund would be marketed under
an advertised brand and would be
properly graded and inspected. The
marks Of these advertised brands
would not be permitted to be used on
fruit not contributing to the advertis-
ing funds.

tanning the cost of production of milk
we note that according to Secretary E.

Testing association members of the or

nish more facts about the cost of milk
production than any other class.
We are impressed by the fgnres pub

tion also as affording an unanswerable
argument in favor of knowing not only
what animal is profitable but also what
line of farming is profitable
According to the table printed for the

auction of milk varied to a marked de-
gree, the highest quoted being 1857

Dead on Ice of River.

Barre, Dec. 27. The frozen body of
Elmer Jacques, aged %, was found this
morning at seven o'clock on the ice
directly under railroad bridge No /,
which crosses Stephens branch near the
Harrison Granite company's plant off
Blackwell street. The left side of his
face was badly jammed, with the nose
fattened against the right cheek. He
had been dead many hours. 1t is thought
that he may have fallen from the bridge
while trying to cross on the plank walk
which the railroad company has built
for the accommodation of pedestrians
desiring short cut between the north
west corner of the city and the business
section. The dead man was seen at
seven O'Clock Friday night by his
younger brother, Edwin Jacques. The
latter declines to believe that his
brother fell from the bridge, thinking
that he may have been the victim of
foul play. The dead man leaves a wife
and an infant daughter.

LOW PRICE FOR FURS.

The low price given for furs has had
the effect of discouraging trappers and
hum tiers, although a few are out in the
woods surrounding this vicinity.
Whether this inaction on the part of
the trapper will have the result
of bringing the price back to normal be-
cause of scarcity remains to be seen. 1t
is the general opinion of fur men, how
ever, that the right men could make it
profitable to hunt and trap this winter,
by reason of the fact that a ready mar
ket may b found for their wares.
While prices offered here and elsewhere
are lower than last year, they have
dropped, it should be remembered,
from the highest point that prices for
furs have ever reached. More is Of
fered today for them than was the case
in 1907.
The European war is mainly re-
sponsble for the decrease in price.
About two thirds of the American furs
were formerly mark eted on the CONT
nent, ard needless to say there is now
no market for luxuries across the
water. What may be obtained for GER
tain skins is indicated by the price list
put out by ST. Louis firm.
The animals commonly found in YER
mont bring varying prices. The dark
mink sells for $4.25 to Is cents; the
ordinary mink, $500 to 10 cents,
the plain mink $500 to 10 cents. Of
course the price varies with relation to
size and quality. The dark raccoon
brings SO to 20 cents, the extra heavy
the same, and the ordinary 81 so to Is.
The muskrat, commonest of all Ver-
mont bearing animals, may be sold
at from 80 to 2 cents. The common or
garden skunk brings as high as So and
as low as 10 cents, according to the
quality, size and condition. The red
fox sells from SIS to So. so, when large,
and the value deteriorates until some
are worthless. The grey sells at from
81. so for the No. l to 10 cents for the
No. A.
