LOCAL SQUAD TOO

SCORE AT BASKETBALL SO TO ID
IN FAVOR OF
TONOPAH

Millers was again defeated by To
nopah last evening at the Airdome in
a slow and uninteresting contest, by
the score of So to IA. The boys from
the suburbs did not put up the brand

horse with them after the first few
minutes OF play. The team work of the
locals was very ragged and had the
Millerites been playing at steady
pace they would have undoubtedly
been on the long end of the score
If the local quintet expects to com

will certainly have to show a little
more class and speed than they did

GRASS SEED BULLETIN.

The Vermont Experiment Station Is
distributing Bulletin 1872 dealing with
the inspection Of grass, clover and
similar seeds sold in Vermont. 1t shows
their purity and their weed seed con-
tents. The tabular matter is grouped
in Two ways, by variety and by the
wholesalers name. Thus all the timothy
samples are grouped; and, ALSO all
samples sold, let US say, by the Smith
Seed Co. A farmer who is buying, for
example, timothy, can scan the timothy
table and tell what brands were of high
grade in 1915 and what were not, And
farmer who thinks Of buying Smith
seed can see in the table showing all the
Smith seed analyses whether or not as a
rule the Smith seeds were what they
were said to be. This bulletin can be
had without charge for the asking, A

SUBSTITUTE FOR GASOLINE.
Springfield Reporter.

The Boston Herald of Monday con-
tanned an account of an interview
with William f. Haskell, the former
publisher of that paper, relative TO a
substitute for gasoline for the running
of motor cars. The article stated that
the bulk of the fluid was pure water,
and that an ounce of mixture, the ma
ture of which was kept secret, would
so transform gallon .of water that 1t
would do as much work, and as good
work; as a gallon of real gasoline, he
also averred that the mixture, when
put upon the market ought not to cost
over penny a gallon. All OF which
sounds like dream, but other dreams
as fantastic and chimerical and i'm
probable as this, have come true. Let
us hope that this will materalize so that
it will be possible for US all to have our
own automobile.

STEALS WATCH OF FORMER
EMPLOYER.

Joseph Leveille, Is years old, former
inmate of the Vermont Industrial school,
broke into the house of c. Ward Spauld-
ing in Panton Saturday, while Mr., and
Mrs. Spaulding were in Vergennes,
and stole watch belonging to Mr..
Spaulding and some jewelry, two pins,
belonging to Mrs. Spaulding. Upon
the return of the Spauldings they
discovered that the house had been
entered through a kitchen window,
Levile was accused Of the theft but
denied that he knew anything about it.
Some time Saturday night the pins were
placed on the piazza of the Spaulding
home. On Sunday, when the boy was
Unrelated with arrest, he gave up the
watch upon the promise of Mr.. Spaul-
ing to let him go free.
The boy was employed for a year in
the Spauling home and recently went
to work for neighbor, Frank B. Hart
well. Upon learning of the boys Of
Tense, Mr.. Hartwell discharged Leveille,
who was taken to Vergennes from
which city, it is said, he left by train.
The Spaulding house was locked
and hired man, who was at work
blowing nearby had the key Saturday
afternoon. The man noticed the boy
prowling about the premises, but gave
the matter no attention. When the
Spauldings returned they noticed that
the kitchen window had been opened
and that in closing the sash towel
had been caught beneath the window.
The boy, bright appearing lad, was
sent to the industrial school from Mont
pelier for stealing horse. He is of
French parentage and speaks English
with difficulty.

afternoon. 1t will never be known

resulted in Mr.. Maynard's death as he
was alone in the house at the time.

that the man in an attempt to extinguish

that his clothes were set on fire. He was

COMMUNICATIONS.
FOR SHERIFF OF ADDISON
COUNTY.
J the Editor of the Register:

To the Editor of the Register;
Fred E. Rowley of New Haven has
announced his candidacy for the office
of High Sheriff of Addison County, and
the voters of the town of New Haven
are very much interested in the contest
for the Office. Mr.. Rowley has been a
constable of the town of New Haven
for more than sixteen years, and during
that time he gained an enviable reputa-
ton in the conduct of the duties attend
ant upon that position. He has also
been a deputy sheriff under the present
sheriff of Addison County, and his
predecessor in office, for the past SIX
teen years, and he has always responded
to the call for service in such a compe-
tent and satisfactory manner at all
times, that he has gained for himself a
record of being one of the best deputy
sheriff's in the county.
On account of being in the prime OF
life, his ability as firm and fair officer,
and the long and faithful service he has
rendered as a deputy, Mr.. Rowley has
been looked upon as the logical candi-
dare to succeed the present incumbent
of this office, Mr.. Smith, who has held
the position for the past twelve years
The town of New Haven has not had a
county officer for many years, and this
fact should be much in Mr. Rowley' S
favor in his contest for the office. He
has many friends about the county who
recognize that he is thoroughly qualified
for the office, and they have already in
dicated that they will give him enthu-
siastic support at the primary election
No one will deny the fact that the
present sheriff, Mr.. Smith, has been a
popular official for many years, but tits
well known that many of his friends
have taken the position, that 1t would
be asking too much of the voters of this
county to continue him in office longer,
and they are doubtful as to the wisdom
of presenting his name again for the
nomination. And it is understood that
the lawyers of the county, who are
naturally interested in the selection OF
an active and capable officer for this
position will favor the election of Mr..
Rowley, on account of his broad knowl-
edge and acquaintance with the laws
and duties governing the conduct of
this Office.
1t is rather early in the contest to
make any predictions of success, but
the friends of Mr.. Rowley intend to
wage an active campaign in his
behalf, and they are strong in confidence
that his fitness for office will gain for
him the nomination.

HONEST SUGAR MAKERS.
Rutland News.

The commissioner of weights and
measures of Vermont has not found
it necessary to make complaint against
a single manufacturer of maple sugar
or syrup on account of the product
being underweight This is ample testi-
mony of the reliable character of those
engaged in the industry There is little
danger of adulteration of Vermont
maple sugar at home, and it would be
perfectly fine if the same could be said
of the dealers and manufacturers
outside of Vermont who are still en-
gagged in the occupation of foisting
upon the public the adulterated article
as the pure Vermont goods.
