urer; and the following are trls-
tees: A. B. NoycS, p. f. Hazen,

The following were elected t.
membership in the corporation
Frank w. Ball, Samuel A. Moore,
Charles A. Shields, and Walter
w Wesley all of st. Johnsbury.
The report of the treasurer
shows that both deposits an'l
total assets are at higher fgul {
than at the close of any previous
period. Fifty per cent more than
required by law has been carried
to the permanent surplus fund and
undivided profits are held at an
increased amount over one yeal
ago. ''~fs"
dividends have been dccl lred
and paid depositors for the yenu
1921 at the rate of A 12 per cent
per annum and this rate has now
been maintained for full three
years. The bank also pays all
state and local taxes on deposits
Few banks in the state have been
in d position to cay such liberal
dividends to depositors and the
surplus and undivided profits fund
which is maintained at nearly half
million dollars is a guarantee OF
the strength of the institution. As
there are no stockholders, thi:
fund is held as the property OF
the edrositors
The Passumpsic is just entclire
upon its 10th year Of business and
during all that long period ha
never failed to paw dividends each
six months and has distributed
over three and a third million dol
lars as interest to its depositors.

The people of North Park have been
successful to some extent in their op-
position to the granting of the petition
of the Hahn's Peak railroad for per-
mission to close their road for n period
of several months during the late win

should develop. when further hearings

The following article, taken from the
Omaha Bee, will be read with interest
by Wyoming sheepmen, who will want
to hr on the lookout for the first symp-
toms:
"A disease Of sheep never before re
ported in Nebraska and very rare in
this country, was discovered Il few
days ~ ON n farm in Sarpy county.
The owner of the affected flock had
lost about POO head, when DIR. c. II.
Hays of Lincoln and DR.. II. II. Lackie.
connected with the federal bureau of
animal industry, visited the farm. An
examination of the diseased body parts
by DR.. G.. Il. Morse of the federal meat
inspection bureau of South Omaha con-
firmed their belief that this disease
was ~cOccidiosis.
Relative to this disease in sheen.
DR.. Morse said: The disease was
first discovered in 1892 by DIR. stiles of
the bureau of animal industry at
Washington. Ten years later 1t was
discovered in Europe, and it is prob
ably much more prevalent il European
countries than in this country. In
Europe it is found in valleys of the
Swiss Alps and also in certain parts of
Germany and Hungary. 1t seems to
thrive in more or less damp or wet
places II in the Swiss Alps it was
known that transferring the sheep ia
higher elevations was a good control
measure
DIR. II. II. Lackie states hat there
are several forms of this disease, one
being the of a form of fowl chol-
era and another affecting calves. In
sheep 1t CAUSES a very serious dysen.
terry, rapid loss of flesh, and when II
once invades a flock. large losses usu
ally follow. 1t is not n bacteria dis.
ease but is propagated by means of
sports. Animals become infected by
the contamination of water or food by
diseased animals. An examination of
the intestines of diseased animals has
shown a spotting of the intestines. the
spots being white and varying in size
from "A pin point to a pin head.
"Dr. Lackie states hat the control
or the disease is best accomplished by
moving sheep TO new quarters mt
cleaning up the infected quarters. AS
to whether this disease Of sheep will
become widespread in the state is diff
hcult to determine, as relatively little
is known about the disease in this
country. This outbreak is being close
ly studied and because Of its rarity is
attracting considerable interest"

To Provide Four
Year High School
Commissioner Of Education Recon-
mends That High School District
Be Organized as Voted.

If the advice of State Commissioner
of Education Lewis c. Tidball be fol-
lowed, and it undoubtedly will be, the
Platte Valley High School District, as
voted upon favorably by six districts
at the election ON November 18th, will
be organized Immediately and the nee
essary arrangements made to provide
an accredited four-year high school in
Saratoga for the benefit of Platte val
ley boys and girls next year.
Mr.. Tidball expressed himself as
very much disappointed that a larger
territory did not vote in with the dis
trict, but stated hat with the present
valuation-approximately 2h millions
could go ahead with our prepar-
atoms for an accredited four-year high
school course next year, although we
n n figure on any bond issues for
building purposes at this time. How
ever, by the addition of perhaps one
more temporary school building, sniff
Gent class room can be provided to
take ARE of the full four-year course
the coming year. Mr.. Tidball will be
asked to come here later TO confer with
the board of trustees of the high school
district, i'm order that the proper steps
may be taken to provide for a fully
accredited four-year course in the To-
cal school.
