ACCUSED OF FORGERY.
Victor Farnsworth of CastIeton Has Been
in Tolls Before.

Rutland, Feb. 24.--Victor Farnsworth
of Castleton, 20 years old, who has Civ
en- the county authorities more or less
trouble for the last few years, was ar
rested yesterday afternoon by Deputy
Sheriff Carl A. Beach on warrant,
signed by States Attorney c. V. Poulin
and issued by Judge Leo 4. Pratt of
Fair Haven, charging him with forgery.
1t is claimed by the state that he forged
a check in the name of John Gerry of
No. 20 East Washington street, making
Paul Fish unknown the payee for the
amount of S265.
The check was issued several days ago
and when it went through the Allen
Ter, Arthur C. Hughes, noticed that the
signature of Mr.. Gerry was not the
usual signature and the numbering of
the check did not tally with his account
at that bank.
The check was drawn to the order of
Paul Fish and was endorsed by Paul
Fish" and Victor Farnsworth. Farms
worth was brought to the county Jail
and will be given hearing Monday
corning at 10 o'clock. He has admitted
to Deputy Sheriff Beach that he forged
this check. as well as another which ap-
peared after his arrest.
In March, 1915, young Farnsworth pre-.
sentcd to the John /. Fennell store in
Castleton a number of orders apparently
signed by Mrs. Prichard of Castleton
and on these orders he obtained a large
quantity of goods. For this offense ne
was placed on probation but his term has
expired.
In February, 1915, Farnsworth was ar
rested on charge of burglary, but was
acquitted in city court. 1t was then
claimed by the state officials that he
broke into the r. c. Ransom store at
Jastleton.

woman's World Federal Market Plan.

Woman's World is serious about fed
eral markets. We do not want to inter-
fere with any plans of the grange, the
farmers union or any other organization
for lettering market conditions for the
products of the farmers and the small
town residents. However, after looking
into the matter. we felt that even If the
Woman's World plan is not exactly TIE
method needed, some acceptable plan
might come from the thought which you
and all of us will give to it.
We have no axe to grind. We believe
that the farmer does not get as much for
his crops as he can by more direct mar
keting. and that direct marketing will to
great extent reduce the cost of living
TO the city housewife.
II the plan is as good as we think it is,
we want to help it along, and If you be-
lieve in it we want you to help it along
The Woman's World federal market
plan briefly stated is this:
The establishment of Is or 90 markets
in various parts of the country.
To these central markets the farmer
or small producer can ship direct.

ing as bad from delusions when she left
the Albany institution.
Dr. Hunt told the committee that he
had examined Mrs. Guilford and conclud
! ed that the scars did not result from
burns, appearing like infested scars, ii
being almost impossible to tell what
caused them.
| DIR. Chandler said he couldn't tell
whether the scars resulted from burns or
not 1t was his belief that her jaw had
been broken and that the scar on her
forehead resulted from blow or fall.
The husband took the stand following
the examination OF the local physicians
and said he took his wife to the institu-
ton in 1911. A letter was read which
was written by Dr. Lawton shortly after
that time in which little hope was ex-
tended of Mrs. Guilford ever recovering
the normal condition of mind and told of
her condition being such that artificial
feeding was required Later it was
shown that DR.. Lawton later wrote say
ing that the patient was somewhat i'm
proved and appeared to be gaining.
Mr.. Guilford said that he visited the
institution Is times during the periods
his wife was in the retreat and that in
variably he had to wait quite long
time before he was allowed to see her.
DIR. Guilford said he never ate while
visiting the institution, the smell in the
dining room being unpleasant.
Mr. Guilford asked the committee if
he might ask question and upon being
assured that he could, inquired the rea-
son why DR.. Lawton, expert in insanity
cases that he is, should make such a
positive diagnosis that Mrs. Guilford
was suffering from organic disease of the
brain. Atty. Gibson asked the witness if
soon after he had not received assurance
from DR.. Lawton that Mrs. Guilford was
improving. The witness replied in the
affirmative.
The witness under cross examination
admitted that after her release his wife
had sent an Easter card to DR.. Lawton
and later music to DIR. Taylor and in fact
pleasant relations had existed between
the Guilfords and the institution for six
months after her discharge. Mrs. Gull
ford, who was in the room during the
afternoon proceedings and who frequent
ly made some remark when her husband
or father were not sure on a certain sub
ieet, here suggested to Mr.. Gibson that
she chad not told her husband lot of
things" until later when proceedings
were brought against the hospital.
DR.. Allston Fogg of Underhill testi-
fed that in his belief some of the scars
resulted from wounds caused by sharp |
He said that there was no |
question but what the woman's jaw had |
been broken and because of the location |

It was entirely possible, said DIR. Fogg, to
,ufer a fractured jaw without the skin
being broken.

C. Bacon, wife of Robert C. Bacon, chair
man of the public service commission,
has entered suit in the Windham county
court against the town of Dhmmerston
to recover $500 for damages to her auto
mobile on Aug. 20, 1916. Attorney Cen
eral Herbert G. Barber represents the
plaintiff.
1t is alleged that because of culvert
and approach being out of repair, and
line of sods foot or more in height
being in the roadway and no guard rail
being in place, the automobile, which
was being driven by the plaintiff with
proper care, she says, went over an EN-
bankment and was badly damaged.

received message yesterday afternoon
stating that fire had destroyed barn
connected with buildings on farm which
he owns in Georgia. 1t appears that the
barn caught aire in the forenoon and
that the blaze was well under way when
discovered. Thereafter, the efforts of
men about the place and neighbors was
directed toward successful attempt to
prevent other buildings from burning.
The loss is roughly estimated at $1,000.

Production of Potash in 1916.

Statistics of the production of potash
in the United States in 1916 are nearly
complete, only a few of the important
known producers having failed to report
to the United States geological survey,
department of the interior. The follow
ing preliminary estimate is believed to
be approximately correct, Complete fg-
ures win be published later, when all the
returns have been received.
The total production of potash salts
and potash products in the United States
in 1916 was close to 10000 tons of potash
(K2O). with a net value at point OF
shipment of at least S3,500,00o, figured
at the prevailing selling prices. This is
ten times the value of the production re-
ported for 1915, but the figures submit
ted by many of the producers represent
only start made toward the end OF
1916 The total for 1917 is therefore
likely to be much greater.
The production reported to date for
1916 may be summarized as follows;
Available K20
Mineral sources: tshort tons.
Natural salts or brines. -. $3.50

including furnace dust re-

Total production ......... $3.50
The largest output has come from the
Nebraska alkali lakes, but the natural
saline deposits elsewhere are now just
beginning TO make important eontribu-
tions. The figures for potash derived
from alunite, of which there is only one
important producer, are combined with
those for available potash in eement-kiln,
luedust. greensand, and feldspar recov-
cries, in order not TO disclose figures Civ
en- in confidence. These do not include
considerable quantity of feldspar said TO
have been mined and prepared for posi-
bic use for the sake of the potash il con-
tains.
The production of potash from organic
sources is about half that from mineral
sources. The recovery Of potash from
pearlash is an old, established industry.

the efforts to obtain potash from kelp,
