B ... 1503 ILLUSTRATED THE BULLETIN'S BOOK. 1t is not surprising that a great deal ©of interest is felt in the pictures which are to be a feature of the 250th an- miversary Jubilee book—what they are to be and what they are to repre- sent. Portraits of the officers and chairmen of committees and the guests of the city will number a score or two and then there will be photographs of the decorated streets, the parade, the performances and objects of spe- clal interest, it is expected, will make about 50 pages. Where there are large assemblages of people the pictures will be made large enough to make the identification of citizens possible. There are quite a number of these photographs whick will be ziven a full page. It is the purpose of The Bulictin to make this book so attractive that it will be in prompt demand when it appears in December for delivery. The Bulletin has had submitted to it for examination about 200 photo- graphs already, and expects to have others submitted. The letterpress and the illustrations will represent the Best part of the an- niversary celebration, and the book will be prized for its accuracy and value by Norwich people everywhere, Order books on the coupon to be found in The Bulletin's advertising columns. SHOES TO BE NO CHEAPER. Notwithstanding the taking of the Muty from hides, it is given out that the price of shoes will not be lower but has advanced from 12 to 16 cents & pair. This has caused considerable excitement even among the dealers. A representative of the New England Shog and Leather assaciation has tak- en it upon himself to point out that there is no attempt at unfair dealing either on the part of tanners or of manufacturers of shoes; that the higher prices for the latter dre strictly the result of plain. everyday economic conditions, to wit, demand and_sup- ®ly. By inference, therefore, had the tariff not been taken off hides, the advance in quotations for shoes would have been greater than it is and uiti- anately larger than it is now likely to ®e. This may not be satisfaatory from the viewpoint of the individual buyer of shoes, but it is inevitable, and, be it sald, quite in harmony with the course of prices for many other es- sentlals for living. It is alleged that the high cost of meat has lessened the demand for cattle and caused a rise in the price of hides the world over. The demand for shues is firm and thé prospect of cheaper shoes is not very promising. This 18 not a political fault, but a business condition over which the peo- ple have no control. LOSING GOOD STOCK. Vermont Is losing her young blood for the development of Canada, and it is perfectly. natural that the Rutland News should rise up and protest, Read Swhat it has to say upon this impert- @nt matter: _“Some thirty young men, for the most part from Lamoille county, ha left Vermont within the past Week for Alberta, Canade. It is a Btastling fact that 500,000 farmers have migrated from the United States to this Canadian farming district, in the far northwest, within the past three years. - We in Vermont pride ourselves—as do the people of the Ifited States generally—ox the unex- _smpled opportunities offered to ambi- tioas men of energy. The fact re- . mmains, however, that northwest Can- ada, by reason of its exemptions from AW&zation of new homes ' bullt, and of rsohal property, Is attracting by the i iundreds of thousands those from the ("Uinited States who feel that their charices for success are better under the system offered than they are with “ms.

Tha new way of getting good treés and “{good frixit was discovered hy a Jersey Poach grower, whose trees were at- tacked, and who cut off and burned all the scaly branches, leaving notiring standing but the trunk. He was sur- prised to find that this threw out new and, more impertant still, latter were immune to the And these new branches bare gome of the largest, cleanest rrun he had ever raised. He made the experiment wm other peach trees with like results. He told his neighbors, and they followed his example, always with the putting forth of new branches and the growing of a hjgh grade of peaches: And the new twigs were not attacked by the scale, the attack on the old tree seeming apparently to aet like inoculation with a protecting virus. The Newark News says of this mat- ter: “The state experiment station has not, so far as is at present known, made any conclusive examination into the current report or issued a bulletin on this subject, but there are many instances of peach trees being thus #aved and afterward fhearing large crops of perfect fruit. If this simple method of treatment shall prove effec- tual as st the destructive scale, it will give new Ilife to peach growing in this state and reduce the price to consumers, while jt will increase the profits of the growers.” THE FATAL SEPTEMBER BON- . FIRES. The fall is here with its celd nights and falling leaves and its d tation te the children to ha but this year the fatalities among chil- dren from the careless use of matches has already begum, the list of fatal burnings in different parts of the cogntry being unusually large. There should be no carelessness with regard to matches any more than with guns, where young children-are about and are likely to get hold of them with- out the knowledge or permission . of parents. The child and the match are a dan- gerous combination; and when ehil- dren old enough to play with matches get possession of these” dangerous things they will go immediately to where the danger is increased, to where they can find the most inflam- mable material. They want a quick blaze, a great flame, a lurid spectacle, and they too often get not omly what they want, but also such terrible burns that death results. The little child should net be left too much to itself and its own modes of self-entertainment. It is entitled to guardianship which is better than the neglect which results in a funeral and a lifetime of regret and sorrow. EDITORIAL NOTES.

The Journal is in receipt of the fol- lowing complaint from a “Parent”: “The other-afternoon several beys were seen and heard to make remar about every 1Ady who passed by where these boys were sitting. T have a son of my awn, and should.I ever hear him make remarks about a lady as I did these boys the other day, I would give him the biggest thrashing of his life.” The hoy who makes disparaging re- marks about other bays' sisters or mothers may rest assured that other boys are not more considerate of his sister or mether. However dirty- mouthed a boy may be, he will ight— if he isn't a coward—any other boy who uges objectionable language about h or mother. Of course, no boy should be willing to say mean things about even a man, but it is es- pecially detestable to speak rudely of & girl or woman. The hoys of Meriden should remember this.—Meriden Jour- nal. A Serious Elemant of Weakness.
