One of tbe most stbborn fires
that the members ot the Excelsior Fire oompany No. 1 have
been called upoo to oombat waa
that in the ioe house in the rear
of the Hotel Windsor -on Main
street, shortly after threw o'olock
Friday afternoon ot last week.
The alarm brought oot tha members and a goodly nam ber of oar
oitizens, wbo witnessed tbe laddies tussling witb tbe flames for
folly half an hoar. Tbe fire
started in tbe inside of tbe ballding and by the time the firemen
got a stream on tbe blaze it was
burning at a merry rata.
The building contained tbe
barroom fixtures, both baok and
front bars tbat were used in the
Hotel Windsor doring tbe lioense period, ss well as otber material, all of wh'ch went ap in
the flame. The building and
contents were a total lots upon
which there was no insurance.
The origin of the lire is unknown
and just how st caught in the
inside will probably never be
known.

Tbe coal business can be reformed by burliness methods. In
piogressive business, increased
increased service follows decreased service cost to tbe public.
The history of the coal business is an unbroken" increase ot
coat to the pubic with a distressful decrease in service.     To save
make coal a drug en tbe market
make it the cheapest, as it is
Bloat plentiful of all our natural
produota. The business ought to
be put on a basis whieh would
keep it busy trying to sell coal.
Itdosen't bave to sell it now. It
is too busy devising new methods
to gousie people clamoring to
boy. The business is doomed
unlesr modern methobs are adopted at once. Profits mads out of
tbe distress ot tbe people are
always muoh smaller tbau profits
made out of tbe most lavish service ot the people"*, at the lowest
prices that competent management can make profitable.—Hen

Tbe Canadian government for
several years has owned and op
erated a railway system of about
17 miles in direct competition
witb tbe Canadian Pacific, wbich
is privately owned aod managed.
The result has been that the Canadian Pacific while charging the
same rates as the government
railway, baa been continually able
to pay dividends of 10 per .cent
on its stock.
On the other hand, the government owned  and  managed  rail
wajs have through yearly deficits
added to the   public debt of the
Dominion since 1914 more than
$600,000,000, all ot which money
has been supplied from the pnblio treaaury.   Tbe deficit  wbioh
tbe treasury has bad to pay tor
its nationally owned and   managed railways amounts to taxation of about $14 for every man
women and child in tbe Domin
ion, or in a family of five abont
$70 a year.

to hundreds of thousands of dollars in -Pennsylvania, each year.
Under the law, the department ot
agriculture teats samples ot seeds
for parity end germination and
for this work a nominal charge
ot 26 cents is made for eaeh sample*
The commercial seed houses ol

advantages ot this service and

there are many farmers who

Spriag b Bet Dry
J. J. Shatter, who owns and resides oo the farm near the county
home on wbicb is located tbe Bennington spring, states that tbe report circulated that the spring is
almost dry is erroneous, as there
has been no dimnnition ot the
flow during the drouth. Tbe
spring sometimes gets clogged
witb dirt that is washed down,
giving the appearance of being
reduced in flow. This is one of
best known springs in the oounty
