The Census bureau has announced

Starting in 1880 with only 143 in
labitants the town has gained in
very census, though the increase
rom 1900 to 1910 was 1883, which is
ncre of gain than in the past de-
aue. The last census gave Benning-
bout 500 more inhabitants than st.
Ichnsbury and it is quite likely that
he Bennington county town will

Capt. Stickney was pleased
TO select the landing place in fair
