examples of diseoloration are in the Vi

The milkiness is due to silt or clay, and
the yellow and red colors to fine particles

Blowing" and sucking" are common
phenomena in this region, not only in
drilled wells but alec in dug and bored
wells. In the bored wells the air passes
in and out through openings in the curb,
occasionally with considerable force. Oft
en- the whistling of the escaping air is
loud enough TO be heard for several rods.
In some wells in other parts of the coun-
try the current is strong enough to OPP
crate whistle that can be heard at
distance of a mile According 10 the
statements Of local drillers, the phenom.
enon is confined to uncased wells. When
the wind is from the south the air is
expelled with a whistling sound; when it !
is from the north il is drawn in. Pois-
onous gas is sometimes given off with |
the expelled air, occasionally producing |
fatal results. In winter, when the |
wind is north, freezing occurs 10 a depth |

MAKING FOR PERMANENCY OF
HOSPITALS WORK.

The addition of Ira C. Calef's gift Of
$4,000 to the Elizabeth Smith fund Of
$1,000 gives the Barre City hospital q
good start toward the requirement OF
an endowment fund that will be com.
mensurate with the needs OF the insti-
tuition. Il should be borne in mind that
the endowment fund cannot be drawn
upon as to its principal, only the interest
from the judieious investment of the
amount being used from year to year.
Hence it will be seen that a stable fund
is necessary in order to provide an in
come which will enable the institution
to do its work in the most effective man
ner and in keeping with the possibilities
provided by the new building and equip.
ment. The policy of maintaining an en-
dowment fund il now recognized by all
institutions which hope for permanent
cy of their work, the haphazard existence
from one l2-month 10 another being con-
sidered a very poor business principle to
operate under. With that idea in view,
a great many institutions devoted to the
interest of the public are straining their
efforts to intrench themselves solidly, and
most Of them are meeting with success In
those efforts, thanks to the cooperation
Of public-spirited persons The two
amounts at hand give great encourage
ment TO the friends of the Barre CITY
hospital along this line of endeavor.

Vegetable and Flower Beds.

j have stoutly maintained that from
the appearance standpoint have right
to mix my paintings of vegetables and
flowers if like. A garden of vegetables
is beautiful thing, if it is a good gar
den. The tendrils of the pea that is
sweet to the taste are as daintily cling
ing, and its flowers are but less conspic-
uous than those of the pea that is who'll
ly ornamental. Few plants in the flower
border produce foliage so delicately cut
as that of the carrot. Yellow beans are
handsome as they hang from well grown
plants, and field of celery Is a pleas
ing sight. Tomato plants, hung with
red fruits, are brilliantly decorative
and what exotic even approaches the
stately, tropical beauty of corn. What
sight in any flower garden surpasses that
corn as the breeze of summer day plays
over it'll. Horace Mcfarland in the
