think it advisable to reply to same

of the facts in regard to the game.
game it will be necessary to give
some rules to more fully explain
Fruita's side.
Two (2) officials are chosen. The
referee by the visiting team, the UNI
pire by the home team. John G.
Beard was Fruita's referee. Miss
Carroll, Grand functions umpire.
The referee has charge of the game.
but the umpire has authority to call
fouls on either team. In the first
quarter Miss Carol called foul on
Fruita for a play when the ball went
into fhe crowd and Grand Junction
had the ball because boy sitting on
stool attempting to get out of the
way kicked the ball A foul was
cried on Fruita for this. This was
contrary to all rules of the game.
Miss Carroll was promtly notified of
this fact and the game went ON with
Grand Junction in possession of tho
ball. Another rule which Miss Car
roll was notified of was that wnen
the crowd attempts to un-nerve "a
player by any demonstrations. noise
or any way whatever that the game
may be given to the visiting team.
She failed to enforce the rule saying
there was no such rule. If she will
look ON page 80, rule XI. Sec. 36 she
will see the rule. This of course

to play. Grand Junction missed more

The Grange Good Roads Bill,

The legislative committee OF the

last month. and examined the various
bills pending in congress, which en-
bodied the principles of national aid
to road building. None of them met
the approval of the committee In all
its details and the committee pre-

was promptly introduced. This grange
good roads bill embodied some OF the
features of the Brownlow bill without

thority In the federal bureau. and
none in the state. and the method OF

But Plenty to Eat.
Rutland News.l

There is little doubt that many of
the residents of the rural communities
OF Vermont are enduring hardships as
the result of the unusually severe win
ter. An evidence Of this fact is the
report that fewer cattle are being
shipped from Vermont than for many
years as the result of the extreme
difficulty in getting the cattle from the
remote places to the railroads As
many farmers depend TO large extent
for their winter revenue upon the sale
of cattle. especially calves, the fact
that they are unable to get them to
market must make a scarcity Of mon
ey in many families.

All the pure food bills that congress
can pass from now till doomsday will
not help the miserable chap right here
in Vermont who adulterates his maple
sugar and tries to pass 1t off as the

the enviable reputation of the wares Of
his honest neighbors. He is not only
hurting himself in the long run, but
he is traitorously undermining public

fraud gives the Vermont product a
bad name and then the innocent have

National Grange Lecturer N. j
Bachelor of New Hampshire tells the

is to write personal letters to their

"a deluge of letters in Washington

grange" This will be good penman-

will cause quite boom in the rural

Winston Churchill would be willing

A late, cool spring Is said to be the
probable sequel Of this abnormally
cold winter. This has frequently
though not always been the rule in
historic American winters of extreme
cold. The early Smithsonian records
show that the cold winter of 1897 in
the region between the Atlantic coast
and the eastern flank Of the Rocky
mountains was followed by one Of the
coolest summers recorded in this Sec
ton. A similar sequence between the
extremely cold winter Of 1856 and the
ensuing seasons is also evidenced by
records Of the North Atlantic states.
Distinct indications appear to the
weather. wise that the coming spring
will be slow to arrive and slower to
assert its power over the country.

The New York Journal which sup

said of Hearst, he does not hesitate to
call down anyone, republican or demo-

toward the plain people Of the coun-
