Jio inJslit bo nble to Induce Govei nor ( Hughes to consent to be present, and he is tol)e congratulated on his success, as luro all membeTS of tho league. Governor Hughes has become one of the I.most conspicuous figures In the country, In the first place his masterful way of ' cross-examining witnesses In the famous 1 insurance Investigation stamped him as ' nno nf tlin keenest and nllle't lawyers 111 the nation. In the snrnml place his elec tlon as governor while all other rppubl! can candidates were defeated In the Jim plro Stato showed that he was strong with the people. Dast but not least It Is by no means Impossible that tho Vermont Fish and Gamo League will again bo enter taining the next President of tho Uulted States, though not entirely unawares, Under theso circumstances It Is safe to Bay right now that the next annual ban nuct of the Vermont Fish and Game Icaguo will bo numerously attended.

Farmers who haul hay and other produce Into llurllngton ir.'Ust have tho difference between good and poor roads forced constantly upon their attention especially when the frost ls coming out of the ground or after drenching rains, Under these conditions a heavy team ln passing nlong the country roads finds the mud deep and the load drags heav ily, hut us son as the macadamized roads of Burlington are reached tho load rolls along as smoothly as on a floor, rain having no material effect on such permanent highway. Teams s can easily draw double tho weight on nmooth, hard roadway that they can drag through the mud, nnd tho econ omy of use ns well as of maintenance of such highways Is generally recog nlzed. A strong plea for highway Improve ment by our farming districts was made by Governor Hughes of Nw York ln tho course of his address In connection with the dedication of the new build Ings of the New York State College of Agriculture at Cornell University. Ho showed that much has been done tn recent years to Improve tho condition of tho farmer. Tho rural free delivery lias brought him Into closer contact with his fellow-citizens, and with tho forces which mnke for progress ln tho State. While ho has tho advantage of external Improvnmcnts of this charac tcr, ho has the opportunity of forming part of tho Important and efficient or ganlzatlon of tho Stato wrango f0r tho protection and advancement of his In forests. The fjovernor then proceeded to show that the Improvement of tho roads of the State would greatly facilitate ac cess to markets and supplement the progress which Is being rondo by our farming districts in various other dl rcctlons, nnd ho strongly urged con ccrted effort to hrlng about a roform in methods of road construction. Theso nro excellent suggestions, and thoy should bo made tho subject of Korlous thought by our agricultural communities In Vermont lis "veil ns elsewhere, nnd particularly by thoso charged with tho duty of supervising work on our highways.

For those women who travel or live ln the country and wlshe.s a chic shopping gown, these plainer tailor ed growns nro lndospenslble. They nro becoming hut owo their beauty to cut and fit and finish rather than to color or model. For the first spring wear In those warm dnys that demand a lighter costmno tho sorgo and cheviot conies Into fnvor for ordinary wear. They should bo very neat, trim and becoming, but are mado on an extremely severe style. This Is usually the gown thnt Is to do all sorts of hard service, for they In spile of their style, are not dressy enough for anything except for such service. The tailored gown that Is most practical for fine wear Is. most olaborato and trimmed effectively with velvet and braid and always with some finish or trimming to take away tho severe look. The Invisible plaids or check Is fashionable for this sort of a gown this year, but of all the stripes aro most neat nnd stylish nnd a boon to tho short woman who seems rather to have been neglected theso last few seasons in patterns. Veiling of voile suits are most practl- cle as soon nfter tho weather has set In. A larger variety than ever Is to bo found on the countors and they eornc both In tho plain and the figured kinds. The light colors nro most favored this season. They are trimmed with braid and silk bands. Sometimes the silk bands nro outlined with fancy brnld. As a rule the' skirt Is short, hut while thpy clear the ground they nro not the ordinary short walking skirt used wholly for the street. The plea'ted or full sk.rts nro the fnvorlto models. Just now, nnd it is astonishing how many different arrangements of pleats there can bo. A favorite trimming Is a silk band around tho front of the skirt or bands of braid put on In the same wny. Where this Is not becoming tho braid put on In horizontal lines Is also used, for under no circumstances Is tho effect of the long lines to bo done away with. There does not seem to be any fixed law as regards material or color this year, but It Is noticeable that one or two materials In the same costume Is thought to bo very smart, nnd It ls true that the effect Is very attractive, for the fact of the dlf .erent weaves In tho same materials gives such a chic air that ls not obtainable In different colors that to many women It appeals. Tiny check In black and white or grey and white, which Is newer, Is to be seen In the cottons as well as the wool goods. Somo very charming effects are scon when combined with the new tan and russet shades and Indeed many women wi lcome the new yellows and browns fnr wear with tho nmbre colors and combi nations and If the brown be a warm tint It works In well with those checks, or It may be simply the gloves and shoes that give the touch and It ,s a very effective one. The shnrtwalsted Napoleonic is being worn afternoon. It Is a sort of Empire coat with long skirt fastened to a very short waist that Is stitched arong the bust line. The coat is tightly fitted- to make It more graevful than 1 1 1 loose coat. It has short wide M'feves and Is trimmed with a little dark colore 1 velvet and some big covered buttons. For tho'e who cm wear plaids nothing could be more suitable and becomingly than the black and whito checks which come this season in the very pretty little coat effect. Thev are mado with trimmed skirt and tight fining Jacket flaring in front, something lil.e an old fashioned blazo coat, and, open Itl "throat to show a becnminir Hoe stock.''"'

The decision of Judge Haze Ron, hold ing that property owned by one city or village Is taxable like other p.-uporty if located within another town, by thu latter town, even If the property ls used for a public purpose, will receive attention. Many of the water supply systems and electric lighting i iants owned by cltlo" and villages n th, State aro located u part outside1 the limits of these munici palities In adjoining or iie.irby towns. We aro of the opinion that such properties have heretofore b.en considered exempt, on the ground tint they are used for public purposes, the statuto providing for the exemption of property so used. Tills has given rise to more nt- less contention In other parts of the state helde tho one Involved In this particular ease, which concerned Swantbn nnd Hlghgnte, . Vil lages have gone Into towns outside, taken valuable mill and power privileges, con verted them into electric lighting or power plants and they have passed nut oMtho grand list of the towns whero lonited. Slmiliarly, loservnlrs nnd storage plants for water systems .pilto frequently have been so located as to bring about a reduction In tho list of towns not nt all concerned In their ownership. Even con siderable tracts of laud acquired for tho purpose of protecting such reservoirs from contamination, have 1 oen lost for tax able purposes. A bill Introduced at the recent- session by Senator Aldrlch of Windsor county wns Intended to remedy tho Injustice. It provided thnt when property was ac quired for public purposes by municipal illc, If so located In some other town, Its acquisition should not Impair tho list of such town, that Is, tho property should bo taxed at Its original appraised value, but such development or betterments as the municipality might make should not be taxed, This would have been a just nivl fair decision, The bill failed of pas sage, however. Under Judge Ilazelton's decision, It nppenrs ns If the eiitlro pro perty, original and betterments, would ln taxable nt the local rate In towns whrro located, Under theso clrcumstnuces the matter may come up again for leglslatve attention. Courts ln other states havo preceded Judge llazeltnn In decisions of slmlllnr tenor, nnd tho same question Ins been submitted, though this is qulto likely the first ono to bo rendered In Ver mont. It exceeds tho average, ynarly Immigration from 1827 to 1S32. The 'record of tho cur rent fiscal year In this respect promises to go consldernlbly beyond all previous bounds exceeding tho 1,100,731; arrivals of last fiscal year and 1,021,490 In tho previous yoar when tho million mark was for the first tlmo established. Thoro havo been in tho past GO or 70 years five great waves of European emi gration to tho United States coincident with porlods of unusual Industrial activ ity lu this country.

The day Is passing, praise be! when any old cooking utensil is deemed good enough for the housewife, while the man of tho house discourses volubly on tho fact that tho "workman Is known by his tools," nnd Invests In every labor-saving device or new Invcn tlon that comes nlong. It Is Illogical to expect that flnn cook lng can be dono with makeshift ap paratus. There are somo women who seem to bo able to turn out delectable llshes with almost nothing to work with; hut they are tho exception, nnd tlrod nerves and flagging steps bespeak the xtra labor entailed In working with un workmanlike tools. Poor nnd Insutllclent fitments for tho kitchen Is a kind of ,merlcanltls." In our drawing-rooms and dens, our dining rooms and bed rooms, we aro wont to spend lavishly often regardless of cost, whllo tho kitchen the heart of tho house Is as destitute. of proper utensils a.s Mother Hubbard's cupboard was nf bones. Not so tho kitchen of good housewives Is Scotland, England, Franco and Germany, where tho array of substantial and artistic pots and pans make up an Interior that artists havo loved to depict and famous art gallorVs put on view. In these Old World kitch ens, ramekins nnd casseroles held and hold a prominent md petcnanent place. According to trade classifications both ramekins and casseroles nre baking dishes of china or earfhenwnre, the casseroles having covers and comlni in family size, tho ramekins being uncovered and usual ly for Individual service. Both do com;, however, In Individual and family sizes, and in a great variety of designs. There are the exquisite French china decorated ramekins fluted or plain, the quaint thick yellow or brown earthenware dishes that bear suggestion even In the stores of all sorts of savory concoctions; somo of the brick glare perfectly plain with stumpy handles ranging ln prico from 2." to W cents, according to slze others so charm ing ln their decorations' of crabs, turtles, fruits, vegetables, etc., they might easily find their place among the bric-a-brac Instead of with the moro utilitarian house hold furniture. Indeed thoy nro often impressed into service for table decora tion when filled with suitable flowers. It goes without saying that for the long, slow cooking, where the Juices of the food aio to be conserved and the special flavor brought out, the covered casseroles aro to bo employed. Tho uncovererd dishes nre suited to viands that are to bo quickly browned on top. Both dishes are sent to the tablo without transference of their con tent', the food retaining its heat for a much longer tlmo than is otherwise possible. Among the dishes that nre best suited to the casserole family size the following: CHICKEN EN CASSEROLE. Cut Into Joints ono large fowl or two mall ones, removing as many of tin bones ns possible, and tho skin, If very tough. Put two tahlesnoons ollvo oil. pork drippings or butter in a frying pan. and as soon as smoking hot lay a few pieces of tho chicken In nt a time, turn ing often until the flesh loses its pinky tinge nnd turns white. Do not nllow tho ileces to brown. As fast ns the whit tnge Is reached take fiom tho pan and ilraln on soft paper whllo cooking .moth batch. When all are cooked and you hay have to add more butter or oil be fore you have fln'shed (but do so when there Is no chicken In the pan) plae where the chicken will keep lint while on prmnro tho sauce. Put three table spoonfuls butter In the pan whero the chicken was cooked, and ns soon as melt d add two tablospoonfuls flour. Ah soon as blended and frothy turn In threo cup fuls veal or chicken stock, which can bo made from tho bones, cleaned feet and trimmings of the fowl, well seasoned with vegetables and soup herbs. Cook until smooth nnd thickened, strain Into tho cas heroic, add tho pieces of chicken, cover closely with oiled paper, ndjust the casse role, cover and bake In a moderate ovsi an hour or nioie, dependent upon the ago ind tenderness of tho chicken. A littl.i berry is sometimes added when tho hleken goes Into the casserole, but for the majority of people this Is not deemed essential. Game nnd veal -aro cooked n the same way as the chicken. Rabbit Is specially nlcu prepared In this way. Serve en casserole, CASSEROLE OR RICE AND MEAT, Wash one cup of rice In two or three wattrs until they run clear. Drain; throw Into a kettle of boiling water with a to i spoonful salt. Boll 1." or 20 minutes, until the rieo ls tender; drain and set back in tho stovo or In the oven for the rice to swelU and dry.
