SOUTH SHAFTSBURY

Miss Alice Krebs and sister, Mrs
Carruther of Pottsville, Pa, were vel
come visitors in town last week.
Rev. w. B. Enright and wife are
taking vacation of two weeks.
One piece of new sidewalk has been
completed to the Town Hall and work
is begun on the one on lower Main
street. If a little outdoor house
cleaning were done in Central Main
street the village would certainly look
enough better to pay.
Gilman j. Thompson, who was in
the Memorial Hospital at Brattleboro
from August Goth to Sept 22nd under
the care of DR.. Anderson, and also
DR.. Carleton, an eye specialist Of
Springfield, Mass, for an unusually
severe case of iritis with complica-
tions, is now making some slight gain
from day to day and is able to sit up
a part of the time. He was brought
home on a cot three weeks ago. His
daughter, Miss HALLS Thompson, who
had been with him in the hospital, a
nephew A. A. Jaquith Of Boston, and
a nurse who is yet in attendance, came

PAPER MILLS TO
USE NEW WOODS

Washington, October 16-As the re-
suit of studies which have been made
at the Forest Products Laboratory on
methods of handling wood chips suit
able for paper pulp, it is announced
that Wisconsin paper companies are
now negotiating with the railroads for
shipment to their factories Of expert
mental train loads of chips of western
woods adapted to paper making.
Previous Investigations by the For
est Service have demonstrated that
good grades of paper can be made
from a number of Western woods
The experts now estimate that some
Of these woods, when cut into chips
and dried and baled, can be delivered
to the mills in Wisconsin at very
small advance over the cost of chips
made from local timber. If favor
able freight rate can be obtained, they
say, the great quantity of pulpwood
on the National Forests should prove
to be a considerable factor in supply
ing favorably located paper mills with
the necessary raw material. In Wis
consin alone, it is stated, there is an
annual market for over 100000 cords
of pulpwood.

A deliberate and well defined plan
exists in the United States to prove

Americans may expect shortly u
definite and settled newspaper cam

Defects In the militia be pointed
out and every little hitch will be

tho militia plan.
The plan OF The Merchants Asso-
citation of New York to have the New

that mobilization OF the national
guards as part OF the regular army
is an entire failure has beer receiy-
ed In certain circles with the ~
most approval. All OF the supporters
lof huge federal army are finding
FAULT with the militia camped in
Texas. Before the national guard
was called on. these feeeral army
supporters were able TO deliver only
the theories as part of their ar

for them to examine and they have
discovered many facts and incidents
which are being used in a certain
