aoy, HUGHES TO VISIT yERsioNT,

The Vermont Fish and Dame League
has entertained a number Of worthy
visitors at Its annual banauets, Its guests
of honor have included the lamentea
president Mckinley, President Roosevelt
who was present az vice president at lsie
shot at Buffalo, and other men of national
fame. This year the management of the
league has been fortunate in securing
the promise of Governor Hughes of New
York to be present as guest of honor at
\ Ats annual banquet. President Maxwell
J;varts has been hoping against hope that
he might be able to induce Governor
Hughes to consent to be present, and he
AZ TO be congratulated on his success, as
are all members of the league.
Governor Hughes has become one of the
most conspicuous figures In the country
In the first place his masterful way Of
cress-examining witnesses in the famous
insurance investigation stamped him as
one of the keenest and ablest lawyers IN
the nation. In the second place his cleo
lion as governor while all other Tepubl'-
can candidates were defeated In the En'-
p,re State showed that he was strong with
the people. Last but not least 1t Is by no
means impossible that the Vermont FiH'
and Game League will again be enter
tanning the next President of the Uaited
States, though not entirely unawarps.
Under these circumstances It lie safe to
say right now that the next annual ban
1uet of the Vermont Fish and Game
League will be numerously attended,

GOOD ROADS AND OUR FARMING IN
TERESTS.

Farmers who haul hay and other
produce into Burlington must have the
difference between good and poor roads
forced constantly upon their attention,
especially when the frost Is coming out
of the ground or after drenching rains
Under these conditions a heavy team in
passing along the country roads finds
the mud deep and the load drags heav-
roads of Burlington are reached the
load rolls along as smoothly as on
floor, rain having no material effect
on such permanent highway. Teams
can easily draw double the weight on
smooth, hard roadway that they can
drag through the mud. and the econ
omy Of use as well as of maintenance
OF such highways is generally recog
nized
A strong plea for highway improve
ment by our farming districts was made
by Governor Hughes of New York in
the 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, He
showed that much has been done in
Of the farmer. The rural free delivery
has brought him into closer contact
with his fellow citizens, and with the
forces which make for progress in thc
State. While he has the advantage OF
external improvements of this charac-
ter, he has the opportunity of forming
part of the important and efficient or
ganization of the State grange for the
protection and advancement of his in
terests.
The governor then proceeded to SHOW
that the improvement OF the roads o
the State would greatly facilitate &C
cess to markets and supplement tn
progress which is being made by on
farming districts in various other di
rcctions, and he strongly urged con
methods of road construction.
These are excellent suggestions, an
they should be made the subject o
serious thought by our agriculture
communities in Vermont as we'll q
elsewhere, and particularly by thos
charged with the duty of supervisor
work on our highways. 1t is even no,
possible to drive along the highways /
some towns and note where a spoonfl
of earth has been thrown into the road
way here and there and left to be level
ed down by teams, Work of this shift
less character is a disgrace to tn
communities concerned and especial
to the road ommissioners; and it
time for some authority to put a sto
to such waste OF the proceeds of TIA,

GREATEST OF MODERN HEGIRAS.
(From the Springfield Republican,


on one day last week more than 10000
immigrants landed at the port Of New
York alone-over 200 coming on a single
ship. This one days immigrant arrivals
at one port exceed in number the total
for all United States ports for the three
years of 1922, 1923 and 1924 together; and
1T exceeds the average yearly immigration
from 1897 to 1892. The record of the cur
rent fiscal year in this respect promises
to go considerably beyond all previous

of last fiscal year and 1,026,499 In the
