LIME DEMONSTRATIONS
University of Vermont Extension
Service to Conduct Them in
Each County.

Samples of soil are beginning TO
arrive at the offices of the extension
service of the University of Vermont
in Morrill, hall IN preparation for the
series of demonstrations in the fall
application of lime, which will be held
throughout the state this fall. The
extension service is planning to hold
three demonstrations in each county,
in cooperation with the Eastern States
Bureau of the National Lime asso-
citation.
The object of these demonstrations
is TO show the effect of lime on crop
yields, quality of crops, the effect on
soil conditions, also TO measure the
value of lining materials in terms OF
increased crop yields, quality of crops
grown for a number of years on linn
ed and unlimed plots, and TO measure
the value of lime in realizing results
from investment in seeds sown, IN
Guiding clover, alfalfa, ETC., by COM
pairing relative returns in yields or
lined and unlimed plots.
Demonstrations will be upon nall
acre plots. that is, q half-acre lined
and a half-acre unlimed. The amount
of lime per acre will be based upor
the test of the standard method re-
commended by the experiment sta
ton.
Demonstrators will be selected by
the county agents, who will take sam
ples of tests, stake plots, superVls'
| the supply of lime etc. The lime wal
he furnished by the National Linz
Association, probably through tn
Vermaco Lime company of West hut
land. the only member of their asso
citation in Vermont.

Three Serious Auto Accidents

Caledonia county had series of
automobile accidents last week. Tru-
man Wheeler, a train dispatcher at
the Lyndonville station died as the
result of an automobile accident at
the sharp curve in the highway Just
north of Lyndonville, that occurred
Monday night. Five other people
were badly injured or shaken up and
second accident resulted from the
first. Five young men went out for
ride in Bruce Wakefield's car and
on the way home about 10 o'clock p.
m, the fog was so dense that Mr..
Wakefield did not see the sharp curve
in the road in time to make it and the
machine left the road and brought up
against a telephone pole, cutting 1t in
two. Three of the men were sitting
on a tank in the rear of the car and
! they were thrown off, Joseph Shere1
receiving broken arm, a man by the
name of Hunter getting a big cash
in his right hand and Wheeler receiv-
ing internal injuries. Ralph Cofran,
who was in front with Mr.. Wakefield,
| jumped and was somewhat injured,
| Mr.. Wakefield, himself, being the only
unhurt member of the party. The
auto tipped over. When the Wake
/ field machine broke the telephone pole
lit loosened a guy rope and permitted
Tit TO sag across the highway. Mr.
and Mrs. Ira Hunter of East Burke
on their way home from grange
meeting at West Burke, crashed into
/ this guy rope, which cut the top of
/ the Hunter car, gave Mr.. Hunter two
black eyes and may cause the loss OF
sight to one. Mrs. Hunter received
scratches on her face and suffered {
bad shock Accident number three
was TO C. o. Parker and A. w. Marsl
of Littleton, n. H, who were taken Il
the hospital as the result of an auto
mobile accident that happened jus
outside Fairbanks village on the so
called Blodgett turn, near st. Johns
bury, Tuesday night, when the light
of the car went off and the machm
left the road, crashed through
heavy board fence and went half wa,
down a steep embankment, the drol
of the ear being stopped only by
large tree. Mr.. Parker has broke
leg and many cuts about the body
Mr.. Marsh was cut about the face an
badly bruised and the car Is tots
!, wreck. A large board from the fenc
was driven through the radiator an
there is nothing left of the machin
!, that is of any value. The men Ia
been to Hardwick on a pleasure drlv
, and were on their way home when tn
accident happened.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages and
that is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly
influenced by constitutional conditions
requires constitutional treatment. Hail.
Catarrh Medicine is taken internally and
acts thru the Blood on the Mucous Sur
faces of the System thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, giving the
patient strength by building up the con-
stitution and assisting nature in doing It's

The number OF officers and men
who entered the war and who have
now chosen army life as their per-
manent occupation, indicates that
the life OF a soldier is not altogether
irksome In peace times. Educating
the men in khaki has proved a dis
tinct hit with the war department,
and II also appears that the men
whom politicians have been telling
US are being held In Germany and
elsewhere. are not having such a
hard time after all. Major General
e. c. Harris the adjutant general of
the army says:

are always filled. Our chief dinicul-
~ is that regiments are apt to be

FRIENDS OF
LAYER WANT
new HEARING
Question Of Alleged Murder.
er's Innocence Raised;
Governor Asked to Act.

Bismarck, N. D.. July 20.-Friends
and relatives of Henry Layer, serving
a life term in the penitent.ary for
the murder Of the Wolf family and
shore boy. eight persons in all, near
Turtle Lake in April, have raised the
issue of his guilt.
A delegation of men called upon
Governor l.. j. Frazier yesterday aft
and asked the governor to
take steps to insure Layer another
hearing. The governor told them it
was announced that il they believed
the ma to be innocent, they should
engage a lawyer to make an effort
to obtain a new trial by appealing to
the supreme court. y
Advance New Theory.
Gust Brokofsky, one of the spokes-
men for the delegation, said that
Layer could not have committed the
murder-that he was at his home at
the time when part of the shooting
was done. The farmers advance the
theory that there were two people en-
gagged in the crime and that the MUIR
ders were not all committed at the
same time. They also declare Layer
now says that he is innocent, that he
confessed under duress and that he
confessed only to escape detectives
and gain communication with friends
It became known today that a Min.
+, neapolis detective employed by the
| g%overnors visited the Turtle Lake re,
| gion on Friday and Saturday of las
week. What report he made is not
made public.
The reward of $1,000 offered 70,
the apprehension Of the murderer
has never been paid.
