BURLINGTON, Nov. l0-The Vermont
Pants Co, which for about a month
turned out a large number of trousers
here, has suspended operations and q
number of people are anXiOusly seeking
Jacob FIIrber, who held all the principal
Offices in the company and who has dis
appeared, leaving in his wake dozens of
worthless checks and many bills. Al
though the company only did business
about a month the profits were large for
so far as could be ascertained. Furber
did not incur the expense of one cent.
All he furnished was ms nerve.
Flrber went, into business in the build
ing owned by George Palans and hash t
paid his rent yet. He furnished his office
with furniture which he obtained at
Dugan 8 second hand store and he hash t
paid for that yet. He hired about a
dozen girls and to thtse he gave checks
which went to protest. To help supply
him with ready money he cashed worth
less checks with Sam Fotokas and others
in Burlington. All that remains of the
Vermont Pants Co, at present Is some
machinery and it is expected some one
viii call for that in a few days.
Everything went in good shape until
il came time TO settle with people. The
girls began TO ask for their pay but Were
held off until FuTber was about to de-
part and then they were presented with
the checks. When they went to work
the day following they found the door
to the " factory locked.
Excepting for few worthless checks
which Frrber cashed down town moth
| ing was heard of his operations until he
| got to Rutland In that city he induced
/ Lawrence Grogan. of this city, to cash a
check for S35 for him. 1t is also reported
that he cashed some other checks in the

matter has been turned over to the state
authorities there

Farmer-Banker Talks
f. NJ. Kennedy, chief push of the
First National Bank, says he thinks
the city ought to cleanup the cement
posts used in the business district to
mark the centre of the street for
drivers to curve around. These
blocks, he says, have already edu-
Gated people to the idea, and now
they are a menace because accidents
sometimes happen, and when car
hits such a mass of cement it dam
ages the car. Sometimes they get
knocked out of position and there
is nobody at hand to replace them,
and it obstucts the traffic and makes
other accidents probable. A more
acceptable marker, Mr.. Kennedy
says, is what is called a button, q CO.
ment affair few inches high set at
the street center, and people drive
around them just the same as the
larger block, and in case of an acct
dent 1t does not damage the car and
it is easily replaced. Mr.. Kennedy
thinks we ought to clean up on those
heavy markers.
Insurance Man Talks

liability insurance says some people
are paying a higher insurance rate
on account of old shacks near their
buildings, and If they would remove
the shacks they might save enough to
make revolving fund that would be-
worth enough to help make the an
nual cleanup. He says the ditch
companies in Blackfoot presist in
cleaning out their bitches and throw
ing leaves out on the banks to blow
around the neighborhood on lawns
that have been cleaned, and the own
ers are entitled to protection against
their trespassing of leaves. They
also throw out mud and sand on a
persons grass and parking just as if
nobody cared whether parking was

Salmon river, where the closed sea-

known as Smiths lake." on the
east fork of Salmon river, is the
favorite fishing place of many OF the

catches, are reported from there.
Over Sunday campers are numerous,
and all during the week cars leave
here and other Lost river points,
laden with sportsmen and their fish
ing paraphenalia.
The trout caught in the lake are
similar to the native trout, altho
there is some difference. The lake
trout are reported as being great
fighters and as good eating as the
Lost river species.

Russian Crop of
Grain Will Fall
Short Next Year

Riga, Aug. 23.-At least a par
tial repetition next summer of this
years crop failure In the Volga
region now appears inevitable, ac-
cording to official bolshevik ad-
vices and independent Dispatch
es from Moscow. The Russian
peasants are said to be doing their
utmost to furnish a seed supply
for the stricken provinces, but
with only few weeks remaining
before the latest possible date for
sowing, an extremely small pro-
portion OF the seed grain need
ed has been gathered In Russia
and the foreign grain which has
been ordered is slow in coming.
"The collection of the natural
tax and the return of seed loans
up to August 10, produced alto
gether 1,067.O00 pools (about
$4,000 bushels), while for the
Volga region alone there are
needed 100000 pools of grain"
