Judge Miles Elevated to Supreme
Court Bench.

Barton and one Of it's most re-
spected citizens were highly honored
at Montpelier, Thursday, when
Superior Court Justice w. w. Miles
was elected to the position on the
Supreme Court Bench, after having
served on the superior court for dec
ade, the last few years of this time
being chief justice of the superior
court.
Willard w. Miles, the son of Grin
Miles and Eunice (Clark) Miles is a
descendant of the old New England
stock. The ancestors of his father
and mother came to this country
about 1630-4O. The name of the
emigrant on his fathers side cannot
be definitely ascertained; but on his
Clark. Both grandfathers of Judge
Miles were Revolutionary soldiers.
One, William Miles, is buried in the
cemetery at Lyndon Center and is
named in the list of soldiers, upon
the soldiers monument. The other,
Samuel Clark, is buried in the ceme-
terry at ST. Johnsbury in the family
lot.
Willard w. was born in Albany, on
February 6, 1845. He received a
common school education in that town
and fitted for college in the academy
at Hatley, P. O., and after that took
private instruction in Greek and Lat
in with the Reverend S. K. B. Perkins
then at Glover. He studied law in
the office of the Hon. w. w. Grout of
Barton and later became his partner,
and for about eight years that firm
carried on very large business ex-
tending to many Of the counties Of
the state and to places outside the
state.
When Mr.. Grout was elected to
Congress, Mr.. Miles succeeded to the
business of the firm and carried that
on until he became Judge of the Su-
He continued a member of that Court
until the fall of 1906, when the Leg
islature of Vermont created the dual
court. At that time he, with Justices
Haselton and Powers, present mem
bers of the Supreme Court, were
elected Superior Judges. AS vacan-
cies occurred in the Supreme Court,
Haselton and Powers, were elected to
that Court and now Judge Miles has
been elected to that Court to fill the
vacancy occasioned by the retirement
of Chief Justice Munson.
Judge Miles has been Chief Su-
perior Judge since 1907.
While a resident of his native
town, Albany, he was town superin-
tendent of common schools and in
1872 represented that town, being the
youngest member in the house, ex-
cept one. He was also admitted to
the bar in this year. He was princi-
pal of Craftsbury Academy in 1874
and in 1875 was elected town clerk of
that town, which Office he held until
1881 when he formed the copartner-
ship with Mr.. Grout and came to Bar
ton where he has since lived. Since
he came to Barton he has represented
the town, was States Attorney for
Orleans County for four years, was
Senator for the county in 1894-5, and
has held some minor Offices. He is a
member of the Congregational church
of this town and a Mason.
In September 1872, Mr.. Miles mar
ried Ellen M. Dow of Albany, and
three children were born to them,
Ida NJ, now Mrs. H. R. Cutler; Ma
bel A., now Mrs. F. D. Thompson
and Grin L., (deceased).

ASBESTOS DEVELOPMENT.
Large Operations Towards the Open
ing of Lowell Asbestos Field
Going Forward. Will En-
plOy Several Hundred Men.

Five miles from Lowell, four miles
from Eden Corners and II miles from
Hyde Park at a place called "Chry-
soville," are going forward operations
toward the opening of Vermont's as
bestos deposits, the magnitude of
which few people realize and which
has not yet found it's way into print.
The location is in the township of
Lowell at the base of the mountains
and is at the abandoned site of the
"Chrysotile Asbestos Corporation" in
which w. G. Gallagher of Lowell was
moving spirit. This company was
compelled to submit to the so-called
asbestos trust and ceased operations
and developments there after several
years of effort.
1t has been recognized for many
years that there were rich deposits of
crude asbestos in Lowell and Eden.
Government reports have spoken very
favorably of the quantity and quality
of the deposits and many men who
have investigated became convinced
that there were unlimited deposits of
this very valuable rock in the noun
tains of this region, but capital has
been shy and competition from es-
tablished companies sharp, while the

PRETTY COMBINATIONS FOR
THE FLOWER GARDEN
BY BETTY PAKE.

A particularly brilliant bed IS made
up of scarlet saliva, golden yellow and
brown ealliopsis and scarlet and yell
low coleus.
Make the center OF scarlet saliva.
Surround this with the rich golden
yellow and brown calliopsis and Dor
der the bed with scarlet and yellow
coleus, using row of each or alternat-
ing the plants. This makes a blaze of
color in midsummer.
Some lovely combinations come from
the annual phlox.
The use of the pale pink. the pure
white and the delicate yellow planted
in masses or arranged in circles is
beautiful enough to suit the taste of
the most aesthetic gardener.
A brilliant bed can be made of pc
tunias. Arrange your colors, as the
juxtaposition of puppies and red forms
too bizarre an effect. Fill the center
with red or purple petunias and sur
round them with white. This is a
good way to heighten the effect of each
color by the contrast.
Narcissi are hardy. They live in al
most any climate or soil and may be
left alone for several years after once
being planted. A rather deep and
somewhat stiff soil is preferred and
If the position is one particularly
shaded from lots of sunshine in the
spring the flowers of some of the
species retain their beauty for a much
longer period than they would if ex-
posed to all the light and sunshine
possible.
The usual mode of propagation is by
offsets, which should be collected
from the parent bulbs and planted out
separately for year in order that
they may grow sufficiently large for
Towering.
The majority of the species increase
somewhat freely by this method and
permanent clumps may be lifted, and
their offsets removed, should there be
Il danger of injury caused by the floW-
ering bulbs being overcrowded, ensu-
Ing from their multiplying.
The process of raising plants from
seeds is a slow one. but is practiced
for raising new varieties.
Seeds should be sown soon after be
ing collected, in pans of sandy and
rather loamy soil.
Young bulbs should be planted in a
prepared border, and do not require
more than one inch of space.
