A Reform Booked for 1910.

The time is not far off when the
people of Vermont will demand a
change in the system of representa-
ton in the Vermont legislature.
Such demand has just been made
in Connecticut but unfortunately the
main reform did not materialize. The
situation In Vermont Is essentially
the same as in Connecticut. The two
constitutions are so framed that
representation in the legislature is
by towns, each town being entitled
to one representative regardless OF
the size of the town. The Connecti-
cut constitution was adoptedin 1918
but it was but few years later that
the larger towns felt the unfairness
of the method an an effort was made
to amend the constitution to make
the representation proportionate to
the population. But the attempt fail
ed mainly on account of the fact that
the diff renee in population of the
towns was not strongly marked.
But the rapid building up of CONNER
cial centers soon brought to light
more strongly the discrepancy.
Again an attempt was made in vain
and 80 years later a third attempt
failed ingloriously. This in light OF
the fact that one-sixth of the cit.z ms
of Connecticut ruled the other five
six tbs. They ruled in this way. a
large proportion OF it's population
was centered in the large cities, each
of which had a representation no
larger than the smallest town in the
commonwealth. Thus the small
communities, by uniting as they
generally will, successfully blocked
the larger towns, which though fewer
in number, had by far the balance Of
population. Last year the clamor
ing of the majority was again heard
and an attempt was made to remedy
the defect but it failed because the
convention called for amending the
constitution did not amend it to the
satisfaction of the people. A move
to amend the Vermont constitution
is getting to be more certain as the
difference in SIZE of the towns il
emphasized and it is to be mel
suuarely.-Barre Times,

Expert Evidence as to the Taste OF
These Insects.
Saved a Calf = Saved a FoaI.


In some cases an insect-as the
caterpillar of the magpie moths
conspicuously colored because, as it
is harmful food for birds, frogs or
lizards, they must be warned to
avoid it. This has been long as
serted, but some naturalists have
hesitated to accept the theory.
Professor Plateau went out one
day. and ate part of one of these SO
called "distasteful" insects. He re-
ported that the flavor, if somewhat
insipid, was sweetish, containing a
suggestion Of almond, and was on
the whole not unpleasant. After
ward Professor Wheeler of Texas
was induced TO repeat this CASTRO
nomic adventure. His report con-
corning the insects he devoured was
that the flavor was slightly sweet
and distinctly ''nutty," and he ear
nestly invited naturalists to eat in
sects Unfortunately on all their
expeditions. That, Professor Wheel
er declared, would be the best way
to dispose of the theory that some
insects were harmful to birds, liz
ards and frogs and that their colors
were self protective in warning
those creatures to abstain from COB
bling them up.
But Mr.. Guy Marshall, the dis
tinguished naturalist of Mashona-
land, after proving that, as mat
ter Of fact, frogs, birds and lizard:
do abstain from eating the highly
colored caterpillars, pointed out
that the personal tests made by hi
brother entomologists were OF ne
worth, inasmuch as man was no
naturally an insect eating animal
and what was food to him might bc
poison or at any rate highly unpal
atable to a frog.-London News.

Wet Weather Crops.

The continued unreasonable wealth
err threatens many Vermont dairy
men with a partial failure of the corn
crop, and many are querying what
they may do to provide a sufficient
supply of forage for their cows during
the coming winter. 1t is now too
late to plant corn in mostportlons OF
the state with much hope of maturing
it. Ifsome small variety of Canada
corn be planted on eXreptl on ally early
pieces, and if irosts mold off late in the
fall, success may be attained. The
chances are, however, against rather
than in favor of late planting on the
generality of farms.
As make-shifts in this contingency
the Experiment station advises that
corn be sown thickly, broadcast, with
a view of haying it j; or that millet
either the Hungarian or Japanese
varieties, be grown.
! Tine sowing of corn for hay is not
an uncommon practice in the North
west. Corn hay makes very nutriti
Gus and we'll relished forage, and 8
considerable amount of digestiblt
food may be grown in this way. The
curing of corn hay is somewhat diff
cult but not impossible in the sunny
days of late August and early Sep
TENDER.
The millets are well-known plants
which make a quick, rank growth o
fairly nutritious forage. They may b.
either put in the slo, hayed, or fec
green. AS rule, however, mille1
siage is not success. There are few
farms in Vermont where Hungarian
or Japanese millet may not be sowI
and brought to the proper stage fol
haying in 60 or at the most 70 days
Millet should be cut before the seeds
begin to harden and before the stalks
begin to get woody. When the PLAN
reaches this stage of it's growth til,
hay is unpalatable and yields poo
returns. About half bushsl of see(
may be used to the acre.
1t should be said once more tina
these procedures are simply make
shifts and unsatisfactory as compared
with corn grown in a normal year
Many Vermont farmers, however, ar,

EASEMENT CURTAINS.
o Quaint summer style For Cottages
and Low Pitched Rooms.


First impressions go far in houses,
as in faces. AS the first impression of
a face is given by the eyes, so is that
of house, to a great extent, by its
windows. Therefore little study to
secure a pleasing aspect in them is
worth while. The subject of window
blinds and draperies is, however, big
one, and the best writer can do is to
give a few hints which may be of as
sistance in deciding the question, so
momentous at this season, Of tasteful
window draperies and which may read
lily be turned to account to suit the
idiosyncrasies of any particular room.
On the familiar and probably peren-
NAL roller blind there is not much to
be said except that as to material and
coloring a considerably widened scope
now exists for making this an orna-
mental accessory. A picturesque old
house, however, or the modern resi-
dence built after its pattern, calls for
something less commonplace to fulfill
the same purpose, and here the case
ment blinds, which are steadily gain
ing favor, step IN IN a manner that is
at once artistic and practical. With
them has come the Introduction of q
class of fabrics possessed of strong at
fractions from a decorative point of
view as well as from that of utility.
Easement cloths, when of light all
wool texture, are admirable for hang
| ing in soft folds; when, however, more
| light is necessary, there are others,
rather more transparent, with a silky
| finish
Besides these there are linens and
other materials in natural shades and
an extensive range of good colorings,
! sometimes plain, sometimes printed,
with which extremely pleasing effects
are obtainable. Easement blinds pos
sess the advantage Of being very easy
! to make and to fit to the window, while
by their means it is possible to regulate
the admittance or exclusion of the light
to a nicely, each blind being run upon

from the level of the commonplace by
the aid Of easement curtains. Here it
will be noticed the upper and the lower
sashes are fitted with their separate
pairs of curtains Any fabric with soft,
silky finish and flaXen color will give an
exceedingly pleasant tone. The long
curtains are of plain fax of deep,
