Many other wild fruits of lesser val
lie and Importance are found. Among
these are the high and the low Gran
berry, the checkefbarry, the wortle

The choke cherry grows abundantly
along roadsides In August, the rich
purple fruit OF this shrub presents Il
most beautiful sight-this fruit, while
little esteemed by man, is readily eaten
by birds OF all kinds.
The soil of Vermont is suitable for
raising small fruit such as the straw
berry, the raspberry and the black
berry. That there has been given SC
little attention to the raising of these
fruits in the state is, no doubt, due To
the fact that they, grow wild in such
abundance

CRITICISM IN HOUSE
 ON NAVAL RulL DING

Washington, Feb. Reconsideration by the house today of the annual ma val appropriation bill brought forth more criticism of President Wilson. some members asserting that he was endeavoring ta force the authorization of a new three year building program without taking congress into his con- fidence as to events at Paris which
 made such legislation necessary at
 this time.
 Discussion along this line followed receipt by Chairman Padgett of the
 naval committee of q cabiegram from the president expressing satisfaction with the unanimous decision of the naval committee to recommend the new construction program The mes
 sage was not read in the house but was made public by Mir. Padgett It said:
 May I not express my qualification and gratitude and congratulations at the unanimous report on the three year naval program"
 There was little debate on the bill itself and opposition to the proposed i increase in naval ships was voiced directly by only one member.

HENRY H. HALL HANDICAPPED
 OF WIFE MURDER CHARGE

Saco Me. Feb. 5.-Henry H. Hall, the Wells Depot lay preacher was found not guilty tonight of the murder of his wife. The jury had been out since 11.4O a. m
 A verdict of not guilty was the find- ing of the jury in the trial of Henry H. Hall, the preacher accused of the murder of his wife, Minnie, at Wells Depot in June of last year. The yer dict was returned late tonight after the jury had spent more than ten hours in deliberation.
 There was an outDurst of handclap- ping from the crowd as the foreman announced the finding. The court voiced a stern protest, but in spite of it the applause was continued.
 Hall was in a state approaching col lapse as he heard the wo1Hls of the foreman, He tottered as he was told to stand when the jury was ready to report. His keeper, Deputy Sheriff Fred E. Muchmore, was compelled to assist him to his feet. When the words Not guilty" were uttered Hall sway ed, but was prevented from falling by the deputy. Then Judge Wilson pro nounced the formal discharge of the prisoner from custody and Hall slip ped heavily into his chair. He re- sponded weakly to the congratulations of his counsel, the members of his family and others in the crowd which immediately surrounded him. The verdict came after many hours of debate in the jury room. The jury retired at 11.40 this morning and de- livered it's finding at 1910 o'clock to- night. It did not ask for instructions at any 1me.

Archangel, Feb. (By the A. P.).- Heavy losses were inflicted on the Bolsheviki by the American forces Tuesday and the enemy was driven back in disorder from the village of Nistavka, on the Vaga. The Ameri- can casualties were five killed and several wounded. Many Bolshevik soldiers were taken prisoner, by the Americans.
 The enemy began early in the morn ing q bombardment with field guns and hoWitzers, and under cover of d shrapnel and pompom barrage essayed a frontal attack with infantry in the Arctic twilight at o'clock in the af~ ternoon. The American troops, who were rested after their retirement from Shenkursk and were now estal = lished in a good position, poured a heavy fire from artillery and machine guns into the charging Rolshevil1i, whose ranks broke and fled into the woods.

DENIES HE SOUGHT A
 COMMISSION OF S1O0. .ocO

Washington, Feb. 5.--Milton J. Trainor of the war department real estate division denied before the sen ate buildings committee today that he had sought commission of $100.000 in connection with contract for the Chicago Speedway hospital. The charge was made before the committee last week by ". s. Bonnet, counsel for Edward Hines, Chicago lumber dealer, who made large donations for the proposed hospital.
 Mir. Trainor told the committee that last June he and Samuel H. Hodge, also connected with the war depart ment, were summoned to the offices of a Chicago lawyer where they found George H. Shank, contractor, Wallace Clark, Mir. Trainors partner, and others.
 MT. Shank explained. according to the witness that he had asked for the conference for the purpose of inquiring of Trainor and Clark whether they could assist in selling the Speedway hospital property to the government for hospital purposes.
 Trainor testified that both he and Hodge said they could not undertake the deal because Hodge was then in the government service and Trainor intended soon to enter the war depart ment's real estate division.
