All the harsh things said and printed
about the highways in Burlington are as
nothing compared with the statement of
a Burlington motorist, who when ar
raigned in a Burlington court for driving
off the road and nearly dislodging the
statue of Lafayette on the University
of Vermont grounds, declared that when
during the night ride he merely thought
he was passing over one of the usual
holes in Burlington streets. Thus, it
seems, the Burlington motorists have be
come accustomed to the practice of high
hurdling with their machines.

BIDDEFORD, Me. June S.-Business
was suspended at the corner of Alfred

when swarm of bees took possession
of that section.
When the bees swept down Alfred
street pedestrians fed to stores. The
queen bee led the way to the silent por

soon the dumb official was covered with
thousands of buZzing bees.
Autoists gave the policeman" all the
street and trolley cars omitted this stop.
After an hour a man secured two boxes
and set them at the foot of the officer"
In a short time the bees had sought
refuge in the boxes, the covers were
clamped down and business was resumed

SPRAY GRAPES FOR FRUIT

Clemson College, May 12.-If you
would have fine grapes instead of
diseased poorly developed ones,
spray with Bordeaux, says the horti-
culturist Of Clemson College.
Where diseases have caused seri-
Gus trouble the preceding season
make the first application. before the
buds open, the second application as
soon as the fruit is set, and and ad-
ditional application every two weeks
until fruit begins to ripen.
Where diseases have not caused
serious loss in the past, three appli-
cations will be sufficient. In this
case, the first application should be
made after the fruit is set, the sec
ond three week later, and the third
and last just before the grapes be-
gin to ripen.
Use Bordeaux mixture as follows
