Henry A. Puffer of Richford drove
his automobile from his home to Ben
nington a few days ago for a short
visit. During his stay here he drove
to Adams and back The distance
from Richford to Bennington is 100
miles and from Bennington to Adams
it is &c miles. Mr. Puffer states en-
phatically that he found more miles
of bad road in the 26 between here
and Adams than in the 1870 between
here and Richford. This bears out the
conclusion of the editor of The Ban
ner that Vermont except for dozen
or so towns can compare roads favor
ably with any state in the union.
There are a dozen and possibly few
more towns in the state that ought to
have their road expenditures placed
in the hands of somebody other than
themselves

Vermont Kitchen Poles

There's lots of old Vermontish sights
OF which VIC can't let go,
Which dog as 'twere our days and
nights
From Simonsville to Stowe;
Beneath whatever roof | step,
AS here and there | rove,
| always look to find the poles
Above the kitchen stove.
Two great long spars on iron hooks,
And right acrost EN- laid
Two smaller ones-not much on looks
And seldom factory made"
I'm sure we shaved our own from
spruce
That grew in Gridleys grove,
And there they hung, the last | knew,
Above the Stewart stove.
Each pole, it had two ends or more,
The large as well as small
Four ends was towards the outside
door,
Four towards the dining hall"
And hats, caps, frocks and drying
cloths
Around them crossbars throye,
Until II looked like Salem street
Above the kitchen stove.
1--WE used to put the frames aboard
On which was strung to dry
The big pound sweets we'd pared and
cOred
For applesass and pie;
How good them fruity garlands
smelt!--
Where'er my footprints rove,
| look for apple on the poles
Above the kitchen stove.

A-wishing I could hang
My cap way up there out of reach,
The same as Slmmy Lang,
He swore at me in. Latin once
And said, by Magnus Jove,
You'll have to grow to use the poles
Or stand upon the stove"
The days the washing would a.froze
Outdoors instead of dried,
We used to hang the co!ored clothes
Upon the poles insida
Twas fun to see 'em hanging there
The different shades of NAIVE

Was 'bOve the kitchen stove.
