Starts Work in May Under New
Management.

H. w. Edmundson, for six years
superintendent of one of the largest
ASBESTOS mines in Canada, has been
secured by the Asbestos Corpora
ton of America, to take charge of
their new plant and mill at the mine
near Eden. Mr.. Edmundson will as
sumo his duties April 1.
In securing the services of this well
known and competent man the COM
pany, which boasts of being the only
American mine producing crysotile
asbestos, feels that it has added a
valuable member to the operating
staff.
Everything is in readiness for the
commencing of work on May 1st, or
thereabouts on the mountain top.
Supplies, equipment, machinery and
everything has been transported to
it's proper place and as soon as the
snow is gone operations will COM

C. H. Thompson, manager of the
local office of the company, states
that the change in the demand of the
market for short asbestos had great
ly affected the opportunities for de-
.velopment, of the business. Where
as, six years ago the demand was al
most entirely for the long fibre, lit
tie of which could be produced, it has
now changed almost SO per cent. to
short fiber, and this mine in Eden is
able to supply in large quantities.
81 On a recent visit to a research la
bratory in New York he said he had
been told that, six years ago there
were about IA products in use, and
today there are $50 different uses
for asbestos. This is chiefly res

There are those persons and news
.apers who seem to believe that with
the passing of Bates from the execu-
tive head of the road system i'll Yer
mont will pass bad roads, high taxes,
the dust nuisance, storm damage and
mud, and there will be ushered in
perfect roads. But when these indi-
viduals come down to cold facts and
realize that New York, the roads of
which state are sometimes cited as
cur aim, has a population of more
than PIT persons per square mile, and
Massachusetts,, another border state
with ''real roads" has Alt persons per
square mile, while Vermont has only
80 persons per square mile, they will
understand somewhat why Vermont
cannot have the same class of roads
without very much higher taxes, or
without a very excessive bond issue.
When Vermont has 3S persons to tax
for approximately the same number
of miles Of highway as Massachusetts,
has 479 persons from which to ex-
tract money, our highways are not so
edious. In fact Vermont's highways
and Vermont's highway system to-
day, for the wealth and population of
the state compared with it's road mile
age, has few if any equals in the
union, when climatic conditions and
soad debt is taken into account.

The Springfield Reporter insists on
sidestepping the issue with reference
TO that papers charge that Ex-Road
Commissioner Bates has used Wind
sor county unfairly in the past. The
Reporter says this paper "Can secure
al the enightment it wants by COM
ing down into this section of the state
and interviewing the various town Of
fcials as it tours the execrable roads
of the county," So, now the Spring
field contemporary admits that its
@good authority" on which charges
were based is the say so of town Of
fcials and the fact that Windsor coun-
ty has some ''execrable" roads. Ii
Windsor county has any corner on
that particular brand of highway at
this season of the year, just try some
Orleans county or New Hampshire
roads or Virginia roads, or Illinois
roads. But what is the use, we sup
pose Bates is to blame for such roads
whether they are located in Orleans
Or Windsor counties, or in the Middle
West or South. To Springfield, Bates
Is much more "execrable" than the
roads.

What Vermont Needs.
(Brattleboro Phoenix

Up at st. Adams last week Tuesday
evening some sensational statements
pertaining to the State of Vermont
were made by w. S. Rossiter. Mr.
Rossiter halls from Concord, N. H.
and is widely known as an expert sta
tistician. He was addressing the St
Adams City club on the occasion.
Among a variety of allegations, Mr.
Rossiter's chief Indictment of the
state was that Vermont is losing her
man-power. In other words, he de-
clared the population of the state is
decreasing. Two of his statistical
estimates will suffice and they fol
low: 6 In $780," said he, "there were
157, 410 Vermonters living outside the
state" This represented 38 per cent
of the native Vermenters then living
"For every 1000 persons leaving the
state,"5 he proceeded, 1900 come in
Economists maintain that every
able bodied man living in a state is
worth $1,000 to that commonwealth
3 If this be true it would be simple
problem to figure out the enormous
loss Vermont is sustaining by the
wholesale emigration of her sons and
daughters. In Mr.. Rossiter's opin-
ion, this emigration has already cost
acknowledgement in dollars and
cents-the enormous sum of $685.

Motor Trucks on Public Roads.
burlington CEpper)

Information reaches the editor that
during the past two weeks test run
was made by several army trucks,
with loads from Fort Ethan Allen to
ST. Johnsbury. It was intended as a
"snow test" but only in Walden was
an appreciably amount of snow en-
countered, the greater part of the
trip being made through soft mud.
Ihe result of this test to the Army
IS not known. The result of the test
to the towns of Essex, Jericho, Un-
derhill, Cambridge, Johnson, Morris
Town, Wolcott, Hardwick, Greensboro,
W alden and Danville is apparent and
appalling. These towns will be fore
ed to place their highways in disable
condition again. The burrows left in
the highways vary from ten inches
deep to over twenty inches deep anG
where the trucks became firmly lodg-
ed in the mud, tractors carried as
"load" on certain trucks were brought
into use and the excavations left in
the road beds from the pulling out"
process will take good deal of mon
ey to repair.
We are unable to learn whether au-
thOrity from any state or town off,
Gals was given for the test, but
whether so Or not, the cost of replac-
ing the highways into disable con-
dition is conservatively estimated at
fifty thousand dollars which expense
added to the already heavy expense
carried by the various towns is en-
tirely unwarranted and shows a wan
ton disregard for public property by
those responsible for the "test."
House bill No. 2, now pending, pro-
hibits the use of motor trucks pass
ing over roads when the frost IS cori
ing out of the ground, except by per
nit by the selectmen.

In these figures there lies chal-
lenge of Vermont agriculture. Ap-
parently only one-third of Vermont's
farmers have realized the opportun-
ity for herd improvement with pure

tempt to increase the efficiency OF
their herds. Nearly one-half do not
even put a grade sire at the head of
their herds.
Those who are giving the matter
intelligent attention are building their
herds up to a more profitable level.
Those who will not are being slowly

enings in Vermont for young men and
young women, by Systematically at

It should formulate policies of as

Vermont Needs to Plant Trees.

In an interview today with the
| chief forester, w. G. Hastings, at
montpelier, it was announced that
April is the best month of the year
to purchase and transplant forest tree
seedlings and that in the past IL
years that Vermont farmers had pur-
chased from the forestry department
and had set out each spring on lands
of little value for agricultural use an
average of 100000 trees per year.
These trees were grown in the state
nurseries at Burlington and Sharon,
and represent one of the chief activi-
ties of the state in it's work of trying
to create static conditions between
consumption and production of tim
Der.
1t is an established fact that our
timber is being depleated six times as
owner should improve the opportunity
to purchase nursery stock from the
state and put his idle acres to work.
Timber 40 years hence will command
fabulous prices.
Mr.. Hastings explained in detail
the profits to be derived by the farm
er from such work which are enor-
nous under certain favorable circum-
stances. One plantation less than 40
years old recently sold for $500 per
acre and it's sole value was the tim
Der growing upon it. But of greater
value than it's worth in money is the
peace of mind to the farmer who can
look upon a few acres of fined boiled
spruce or pine which stand on his
farm as insurance against the loss of
his buildings from fire. How many
farmers in Vermont can go to their
woodlot and cut the logs to produce
the lumber needed to replace burned
house or barn?
Just now the most progressive Yer
mont farmers are placing orders with
the forestry department which, as Mr..
Hastings further explained, is author
lied to grow such seedlings and to
distribute them among the farmers of
Vermont at cost for planting an aban-
dOned or rough land.
