CAMP ABNAKI DONATION DAY
MARCH 20

In June, 1901, Byron N. Clark and
Harry r. ROLES, of the Burlington Y.
M. c., took 2l toys of that city TO
Cedar Beach for ten-day camp.
They had three sleeping tents, din
ing tent, cook tent, kerosene stove
on which to cook the meals, and one
row boat. But the boys had good
time and got some help. Next year
they went again to the same place.
The following year a smaller crowd
went to Mascoma Lake, in Enfield, N.
II. The next two years the party was
combined with the boys of Plattsburg
in their camp at Chazy Lake, N. Y.
The two following years the associa-
tions Of Burlington, Montpelier, st.
Johnsbury and Franklin County unit
cd in camp at Silver Lake, Frank
lin. From 1908 to 1915 the camp was
located on Hibbard's Point, North
Hero.
In March, 1916, the State commit
tee Of the Young Mems Christian
Associations of Vermont, which has
been conducting the camp for the past
eight years, purchased site Of n
acres of desirable land at the southern
end of North Hero Island. Suitable
buildings were erected, and the prop
erty is valued at $4,000. Already
about $4,000 has been paid on it.
During all the years in which the
camp was moving from place to place
it was growing in attendance, in in
fucnce, and in the splendid results for
which it has become so well known
about the State and country. Last
summer there were 229 campers, rep
resenting 65 towns, l3 States, and 5
countries.
Camp Abnaki is not camp where
boy spends his summer vacation in
idlesncss, but one in which the four
sides of life arc emphasized by an nc
tive program in cach-physical, social,
spiritual. 1t is camp OF
Christian ideals and Christian leader
ship. 1t is open TO any honest boy
who has passed his twelfth birthday.
In order TO do the largest good for the
largest number II is run at the low
rate of $500 week, 80 boys from
homes of moderate means may receive
its help.
The State committee is very anxious
TO make another payment on the
on March 3lst, when its
financial year closes. SO II has decid-
ed to observe a State wide Camp Alb
nah Donation Day, on Thursday.
March goth, and 10 ask for contribu-
ions from the people of the State who
ire interested in helping the boys.
The committee earnestly asks gifts

ATTENTION GARDENERS.

1t has been called to my atf
tention that white and green3
bug is very prevalent on tomato
vines. These are aphides or
sucking insects and cannot be
killed by poisons. Whale oil soap
one pound to five gallons OF
water is the remedy. Ii your
druggist does not carry whale oll
soap, common laundry soap, one
half bar to one gallon of warm
water will do the work. This
must be applied in mist, and
small spray pump being suit
able. The spraying must be
thorough as the idea is to put a
thin covering of soap over the
body of the insect. This stops
the pores of skin thereby the
breathing and causes death. Both
under and upper side of plants
should be sprayed. &:

PROSPECTING FOR OIL
WEST OF HICKMAN.

A company composed of HEX
man and Union City capitalists
is prospecting for gas and oll
on the Leech place, II miles west
of Hickman. The drilling Is III
charge of +. M. Baltimore, the
well man of Hickman.
The Leech place was selected
for this purpose because about
four years ago, while a driven
wen was being put down, natural
gas was struck. 1t has continued
to flow from this we'll all this
time and the pressure seems I'M
diminished. AT first 1T was
thought this might have been
supplied from a small gas 'pock-
ct which soon exhausts when
open; bat gas still pours from
this well. Another proof that
it is not pocket gas is the burn
ing. Pocket gas burns with a
white, feeble flame, while the
Leech well burns with a strong,
blue blaze, and will ignite from
lighted match two feet from
the pump.
At present, the company s an
tentions Is to put down several
wells, something like 90 feet, and
the well showing the strongest
pressure will be sunk to a much
greater depth. The third well
put down this week, shows al
increased pressure over the otheI
two, and prospects for gas ano
oil are very encouraging. An Oh
expert of IA years practical ex
perience went down Tuesday ans
looked the proposition over. Hi
verdict was splendid prospect
i for odl. p" The first indications O
Toll is the vegetation of trees
over it. They show certain ef
fects ON growth resulting from
oil soil. Then gas Is the mex
Indication, and both of thes
"signs" exist on the Leech place
together with certain favorabi
geological formations.
In short, it looks very mucl
like the lower bottom possesse
