unfortunately, heavy mortgage. It
was 70 remove this incumbrance that,
after returning from the war, he de-.
cided to take up newspaper work. He
came to Brattleboro IN 1866 TO become
associated with Daniel L. Millikin i'm the
publication of the Vermont Record and
Farmer, weekly newspaper which was
afterward absorbed bv The Phoenix.
The Record and Farmer devoted n col
umn 20 domestic affairs under the head
ing "Thc Household" The original
recipes published here attracted So
much attention that Mr.. Crowcll con
ceived the idea Of the publication of a
monthly periodical devoted entirely to
domestic interests. Mr.. Milliken also
believed that there was a field for such
journal, but the two men were busy Mt
that time with the work on the weekly
newspaper. In 1867, Mr. Millikcu hav.
ing sold the weekly, plans were started
for the new publication Mr.. Crowcll
suggested weaving into the headline

At last the dream became a reality and

published in January, 1865, with -
paid-up subscriptions. The first number
was printed in the Office of the Spring
field Republican under the direction Of
Clark W. Bryan, aftcrward the founder
and publisher Of Good Housekeeping.
The new venture met with encourage
ment at the start, but both of the pro-
prietors were hampcrod by limited fnau-
cial mems, and as expenses continued
to outrun receipts the growth OF the pa
per was retarded. For months its pub.

sell, met the proposition with the coun-
ter offer to buy. As neither had any
money all offers took the nature of bar
ter, which finally ended in an extremely
original proposition even for Z" hard up =
newspaper men. It was proposed that
the seller was TO have for payment of
his interest in the concern the right to
obtain n certain number Of yearly sub
scriptions, he taking all the income
from them while the buyer was to sup
ply the paper to the subscriber, this be
ing the consideration given for his
partner S interest in the property.
Bidding for the property on this
basis, which was first begun bv Mr..
Mill.kcn, was brisk, he offering at the
outset TO give Mr.. Crowell 10000 sub
scriptions. Mr.. Crowen responded with
a still higher number and finally in
creased it to $4,000. Here competitive
bidding ceased, but Mr.. Milliken claimed
as they had given agents commission
of % per cent, he as an agent in the
future should have the same terms. This
was finally acceded to, and Mr.. Crowell
gave 1888 l-3 yearly subscriptions for
his partner S half interest in The House.
hold.
This sudden turn of the affairs of
the partnership interest brought the
financial problem straight home to Mr..
Crowell, who had hitherto borne only
half the weight Of the load. The ques-
ton of ways and means became to him
at once pressing, and here was where
the old homestead, the paternal acres,
came in to play an important part An
old friend had been left behind at Hop
kiuton, to whom was made an appeal for
money and to which he responded, TAX
ing as security a mortgage upon the
/ farm. This brought the means Of meet
ing the expense OF the next issue and
another friend assisted to bring out the
second under MIR. Crowpll's ownership.
Subscriptions began to come in more
rapidly and the work went on, but the
outgo continued to exceed the income,
ana the prospect ahead did not look par
ueuiarly encouraging. Still, there was
hope while there was life. Mr.. Crow

added, the publisher having offered to
make such an enlargement when the

at the same time promising to make a
still further enlargement when the cir
culatiOn reached 10000. At the end of
three years that number of subscribers
having been obtained the second en-
largement was made and "a pages were
printed. At a later date The Household
was enlarged to 81 pages, making it at
that time one of the largest monthlies
issued from an American press. For a
number of years while The Household
was under Mr.. Crowell IS ownership its
circulation was $4,000 copies This was
one of the big calculations of among
American publications at that time.
From Brattleboro Mr.. Crowpll's paper
went into homes in every state in the
Union and almost to the remotest
bounds Of civilization in foreign coun-
tries. Thousands and thousands of
housewives found in its well-flled pages
each month much that instructed them

cheered and frightened the darker side
of domestic affairs.

Flat street which since has been known
as the jelly mill, for the Brattleboro
Jelly Co., and Ter a number OF years
an extensive business was conducted
there in the manufacture of cider iel-
~ and cucumber pickles. The ell part
of the building recently was sold.
The building known as The Cottage,
west of the Chestnut hill reservoir,
was completed in 1886. Beginning the
previous year and continuing q number
of seasons the building was used for
the accommodation OF fresh air chill
dren from New York and Brooklyn
under the management of DR.. Judsuu,
Mrs. Crowen and several assistants
caring for the children here. The par
ties sometimes numbered so or more.
Throughout the principal years of
the activity of the Carpenter Co,
manufacturers OF cottage organs, Mr..
Crowell was president and principal
owner. The company did prosperous
business at its factory on Elliot street
and had bright outlook for Increased
business, when the European war broke
out and created conditions which made
a liquidation of the business seem adj
visable the present year.
The Crowell residence, on a fine os-
tate just south OF the junction OF
High and Green streets, was built by
Confederate general, Gen. Buckner
and later became known as the Char

estate in 1888, renamed the residence
Lindenhurst and spent two years en-
larging and improving it, making it one
OF the handsomest residences in this
part of the state. The family occupied
it for the first time in February, 1890

The Household was pioneer in a
particular field, and for several years
was the only journal published in this
country devoted entirely to domestic
affairs. It was founded in the belief

magazines was not such as to meet the
| taste of those earnest women who con
stitute the larger class of the community
that they needed something more
practical in its nature, and that which
tended directly to turn mere drudgcry
into something approaching scientific
