The Village Streets.
Enosburg Falls is not the only vii
lage in Vermont where the question
of what to do about the construction
and upkeep of the village streets IS
one calling for serious consideration
and an earnest attempt at solution.
The Orleans County Monitor says:
1.-The Monitor believes the board of
trustees of Barton village are on the
right road in their investigation and
recommendation of paved streets in
the village. The very comprehensive
manner inwhich their reportwas pre-
sented at the recent village meeting
shows that they have not gone into
the matter without much thought, and
the Monitor looks for report from
them TO special meeting, after fur
Their investigation, whichwill bear the
closest inspection and probable adOp-
ton. 1t is quite generally accepted
now that ordinary dirt, gravel and
macadam cannot stand the traffic the
streets of our larger villages are
called upon TO carry today and the Ill
innate answer IS some sort of pave
ment."
The conclusion which the Monitor,
in the foregoing comment, indicates
as having been reached by those who
have been investigating the matter
for Barton, is substantially the same
as that arrived at by the special COM
mittee which carried on an investiga-
ton for Enosburg Falls and submit
ted its report at the annual village
meeting last year.
The report was clear and emphatic
that the only solution OF the village
highway problem, as far as those
streets bearing the larger portion Of
the traffic are concerned, is pavement
and such measure was recommend
ed.
The matter has in fact passed the
stage of speculation and argument
and has come to the question of ways
and means. which TIE progressive
spirit OF the community should not
find it difficult to solve.-Enosburg

All American Wars Began in April.

All American Wars Began in April
April is the month in which all
American wars have begun. The fol-
lowing is the list:
April, 10, ITS. The American Rev
olution.
April 4, 1912. War with Great
April p, 1881. Black Hawk Indi-
April "a, 1916. War with Mexico.
April II, 1861. Civil War.
April q, 1898. Spanish War.
April IA. 1916. Capture of Vera
Cruz.
April 7, 1916. Punitive expedition
to Mexico.
April 1917. War with Germany
Insect Warming.
The Importance of the few weeks
just previous to the opening of the
leaf buds on apple trees as a period
for effective insect control is urged by
the commissioner of agriculture.
The bark of all trees infested with
scale insects and which were not
sprayed last fall should be thorough
" covered with lime sulphur, or a
substitute material of recognized
worth at this time The Connecticut
river-valley towns OF Windham county
stand in the greatest need of this
spraying owing to the presence of the
San Jose scale; but the prevalence of
oyster shell and European fruit scale
in q great many orchards throughout
the state demand the treatment gen
orally.
Trees which have been infested by
ho ST7TTney canlror xrnT-T17 fho ef
two or three years should be banded
with tree tanglefoot, or other sticky
substance, non-injurious to the bark,
as early in April as possible. The
adults of these dark-colored "inch"
or measuring" worms transform
from the pupa stage In the ground.
The females, being wingless, are
obliged TO crawl up the tree trunks
in order TO deposit eggs. Banding,
therefore, affords a high degree of
protection Severe infestations of
these insects do not cover large areas,
but such sections have been literally
distributed about the state in recent
years, especially in Addison, Rutland,
Bennington and Windsor counties.
Although comparatively scarce in
most sections the egg masses of the
tent caterpillar should be searched for
and d xed off the tTigs before the
middle of April At the same time
care should be taken to remove all
other such egg masses, such as those
Of the tussock moths, and all cocoons
and webs which may be found
In all such work careful watch
should be kept for the presence Of
gypsy moth egg masses and brown
tail moth nests. The known area Of
infestation OF these insects in the
state is limited 70 the eastern border,
but should the brown-tail be located
elsewhere or the gypsy moth be dis
covered at any point immediate no
tice should be given the commission
er of agriculture.
Specimens OF all stages of the gypsy
moth may be seen In the public IL
braries.

Quoting from one Of Mr.. Coop.
er's lectures, Mr.. Willis said:
When people grow to a ripe
old age, their digestive organs
lack vitality, and begin to act
more slowly and less effectually
than in youth. the circulation
becomes poor, the blood gets
thin. the appetite fails and the
digestion weak.
Tanlac, the powerful recon-
structive toni C, is the ideal
strengthened and body builder
for old folks, because it creates
a good healthy appetite. strength
ems digestion. enriches the blood
and in this natural manner builds
up, strengthens and invigorates
feeble, rundown, nervous peo-
pie. and is an unfailing source of
comfort to the aged and infirm. :"
Tanlac is sold in Colfax, ex-
clusively by Dixie Pharmacy, in

will eat slowly, masticate you'll food

none at all for supper, you will more

have been in a very feeble. and
delicate of health, bordering at
times on. what might be termed
a general decline.
| Their failing health was due,
no doubt, in large measure, to
the general infirmities of ad-
vanced age, and although they
received every possible care and
attention, they seemed to be
beyond the reach of the treat
ment ordinarily administered in
such cases.
AT the suggestion of Mrs: Gull
ton, the matron of the institu-
ton, they concluded to try Tan
lac and it was happy decision
indeed when they did so. The
reconstructive powers of. the
medicine were at once in evil
dence. They begun almost i'm
mediately to feel better, eat bet
ter and rest better. Since that
time the treatment has been &C n
|tinued with the most astopishil g
and gratifying results, but let
them tell their own stories in
their own individual way. Their
statements are profoundly inter-
Nesting.
Mrs. Houser, one of the first
to use the medicine, and being
at very advanced age, her
trouble had been more persis-
tent and difficult to treat, per-
haps than any of the others.
Mrs. Houser said:

from stomach trouble. would |

fered no bad after affects what |,

Mrs. Martin, who was next to 7
testify, said:
Il have suffered a great deal
from hard, darting pains in my
head and had stomach trouble.
