Senator Pierce In Favor of Morrill, Me-
mortal Building.

oeHdtoT rlefSe III Y dNoT OF morTlH me-
mortal Building.
Editor The Phoenix:
Dear Sir: l am very glad indeed to see
the position The Phoenix has taken in
regard to the Morrill, building The APP
preparation from the National govern
ment does not allow the erection of ag-
ricultural buildings from that fund, con-
sequently as Vermont has never APP
propriated money to build state agri-
cultural buildings we are simply without
a suitable place to carry on experimental
work and especially in the dairy depart
ment which represents the most i'm
portant factor in the agricultural inter-
ests of the state. Nearly all of the states
in the union have appropriated large
sums of money ranging from fifty to
three hundred thousand dollars for ag-
ricultural buildings. Vermonts agricul-
tural buildings today simply include a
few cheap wooden structures cheaply
built and patched up from time to time
and the total worth of all would not ex-
coed five thousand dollars.
The question Is shall the agricultural
interests of the state suffer longer through
lack of funds sufficient to promote its
growth and prosperity. No greater mon
ument could the people of Vermont erect
to the memory of our late lamented SEN
ator, Hon. Justin S. Morrill, or add a
greater good in the interests OF the Green
Mountain State than by erecting such
building as is proposed at this time
Very truly yours.
G. w. PIERCE.

BRATTLEBoRo MARKET REPORT.
Trade ouiet-Oull Weeks Precede list
and 18th Each Month-Larqe Oat Crop
Has Decreased Price Five Cents.

Trade has been quiet the past week
Dealers realize that the week before the
first OF the month and the week before
the 18th are duller than the other two
weeks, and no doubt this condition is due
to the fact that the LIST and the 18th are
pay days. There have been but two
changes In prices this week worth mem
tioning. Linsced oil meal is five cents
higher and oats have decreased a like
amount. The last crop of oats, which is
now on the market, was large, which ac-
counts for the decrease in price.

memora Bile Historical events were en-
acted 1t was at that period that Co
lumbus discovered a new land and it
was to the piety and generosity and
foresight of the Christian queen that
he was enabled to embark on his mem
orable and providential expedition.
The lecturer, in glowing euIogy, said
that lbabella's life made other pages
OF history blacken to bring out the
peerless character of Spain IS great
queen. Her personal character and
endoWments made her court a model
one. After a reign of thirty years,
which has never been equalled since
by any ruler of her country, she sue
cumbed to failing health. During her
last days she was surrounded by pre-
lates and the great magnates of her
court and amid the tears and over
flowing love of loyal people she laid
down the sceptre and the crown, re-
signing her soul to the Master whom
she served so faithfully
Although. as is well known, the lee
turer is not a Catholic, she loves the
memory of Isabella with the heart of a
noble and enlightened woman who has
drank deeply from the fountains of
Spanish literature, has made her his
tory the study of her life, has lived
among her people, studied their Ian
guage, spent years among her mus
Gums and archieves and learned TO do
justice to one of the most heroic char
acters that ever wore a mortal crown.
Mrs. Woolson, as the presiding Of
hcer pointed out. occupies ain enviable
position in the field of literature, his
tory and the arts, enlightening many
cultured audiences on points that are
often misunderstood and misquoted
Many of her most salient and beautiful
quotations are from the pens of Pres
colt and Irving, who have Illuminated
the pages of Spanish and American
history. At the close of Mrs Wool
sons admiral BILE lecture rising vote
of thanks was extended her.

Jews In RuAaia'A Army.

Some interesting particulars have
been published in the Aurore of Paris
concerning the curious turn taken by
Russian official anti Semitism in the
war preparations. The minister of the
interior, De Plehve, personally super
vised the revision of the lists of reserv-
lists to be called out, and the result is
that an enormous percentage of Jews
have been sent to the front 1t in
cludes most of the Jewish doctors Of
st. Petersburg, for out of the $50 med
ical men dispatched to Manchuria in
early March 10 were Jews. This is
one way De Plehve is getting rid of
Jewish savants whom he suspects of
holding too liberal views. Another
motive is the jealousy of Christian
doctors, who want to get the large
practice that now goes TO the Jews
Moreover, the Jewish doctors are dis
criminated against. They receive only
$3.50 for travelling expenses, whereas
the Christians received 1928.

In the Garden.

The time is here when We must get
The spade and rake and hoe.
To nature we must pay this debt:
To dig, to pillow, to SOW
No farmers we. save in desire;
Our work has little worth.
But every soul twangs tuneful Tyre
When close to Mother Earth.
The flower that blooms on wrapper
bright
OF fine assorted seeds
The flower we grow with great de-
light
In size, at least, exceeds.
But what's the odds? We've known
the fruit
OF well directed toll
And horns of plenty joyous toot
When we are near the soil.
We care not for the market price
OF green stuff, fruit or flowers.
We only know that it is nice
To potter through the hours.
We like to see the shoots spring up.
OF weeds to know a dearth.
All, filed with joy is fellows cup
When close to Mother EARTH
OF course. I must admit the fact
I shall not turn a hair.
Hard work | shall from kids exact
And boss em from a chair.
The farmer who on porch can sit
His ease should never spoil.
To sit outdoors and loaf bit
Is to get near the soil.
