WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER a, 1908.
OUR NEXT PRESIDENT.

William H. Taft, the great Ohian,
has been elected president of the
United States. He showed unexpect-
ed strength with the people, surpris
ing even his most ardent supporters.
The powerful assistance of the presl-
dent and federal officials was po
tent factor IN his election, but be was
aided, too, by splendid record of ac-
complshment and general recogni-
tion of his high character and great
ability.
Regret will be felt by many that
Mr.. Taft's triumph cost the defeat of
the greatest American of the genera
ton, and checked for time reforms
that are bound to be adopted in this
country For the third time Mr..
Bryan has appealed in vain to
the millions who do not doubt
his purity of purpose, but hes
itate to change the existing order Of
things. His brilliant campaign,
aggressive almost beyond precedent,
claimed the admiration of the nation,
and caused many to marvel at the
gameness of the man. His
enormous popular vote falls little
short of that given Mr.. Taft 1t may
be added that, excluding federal
Office holders and their influence, d
clear majority of the people not di-
rectly benefited by Taft's election de-
sired to place Bryan in the White
House.
Bryan does not need the pres
idency; history will accord to him a
higher rating than that gwen many
who occupied the office. Clay, Web
ster and Blain tower infinitely above
Hayes, Harrison and Garfield in the
popular estimation. Bryan has
stamped his thought upon the coun-
try as no one else has done and his
policies have been engrafted into the
laws of the land, He is perhaps the
greatest moral factor in the world to
day. Loved by millions of his coun,
trymen, his personal popularity en-
braces many who oppose him polit
ically. Although eliminated as &
candidate, he will continue to exert &
powerful influence in national poll
tics; and in future decades students
of American history will turn back
zealously to read of this kindly and
picturesque figure who awakened
the conscience of the nation.

The city council of the city of Rut-
land has ordered taken down all signs
that overhang the public sidewalks.
This is something that should be done
in every town or at least no new signs
OF that character should be allowed to
be put up and in this way that class
of nuisance will be gradually elin.inat-
ed. Overhanging signs have resulted
in death and injury to many people
from their falling when they get old
and the support rusted or decayed or
when strained by severe gales. The
overhanging signs are relic of the
past and it will work no harm to any
body if they are gradually replaced by
signs which are not menace to the
innocent public.

Support Of Schools

What is the meaning of this State
relative to the support of schools in
the several counties of this state in
which Bennington county makes the
poorest showing of any county in the
state? This report states that the
following are the percentages of ex.
penditure for current school expenses
as recorded on the grand list of the
several counties: Addison, 447;
Bennington, AZ; Caledonia, 81; Chit
tenden, AZ; Essex, &c; Franklin, 40;
Grand Isle, so; Lamoille, so; Orange,
S. Orleans, S.; Rutland. AZ; Wash
ington, 54 Windham, SO; Windsor,
60.
Is it true that Bennington county
does less for its schools than any
other county in the state, and less
than two-thirds that of at least one
other county? We do not know much
about the schools of the county out
side of the town of Bennington. but we
feel sure that there are few towns in
Vermont where the public schools are
as good or supported as well as here,
and are therefore inclined to think
that there must be some mistake IN
these figures as given out by Mr.
Stone.

The Unmistakable Drift.

Governor Hughes favors the regu-
companies through the public service
commission. For that matter, glance
at this brief standardization of the
chief points in his recent message to
the Legislature and see how unmis-
takably the policy of Capitalization OF
public interests and powers and gov
eminent oversight of public service
institutions of all degrees is reflected
in every instance:
Legislation giving the state super.
intendent OF banks supervision over
the liquidation of the affairs of insol.
vent banking institutions and building
and loan associations.
Recommendation that trust com.
panies doing banking business shall
be placed under the same laws as
banks, especially in regard to reser.
yes.
Extension of the public service
commissions law to telegraph and tel
ephone companies.
Extension of the jurisdiction OF
the bureau of labor statistics so as to
provide for special investigation into
Industrial accidents; also that the bur
eau instead of local boards OF health
have power over the enforcement OF
the provisions of the labor law relat
ing to mercantile establishments.
Strengthening of the tenement Law
by the passage of such supplement
tary legislation as may be needed.
Extension by the state of its hold
ings of forest land and the enactment
of license law for hunting.
Establishment of a board of con
troll to take charge of the financial op
erations and purchases of charitabl,

TOO MUCH OF A GOOD THING

We once knew a young fellow who
carried to an extreme two traits that
are often lacking In others and prove
a real tbar to any material success in
life-namely, industry and economy
He often shocked oats and made hay
by moonlight, working in busy sea-
sons as late as II o'clock, yet, not
withstanding this, getting up with the
birds and being in the field before sun
I'D next morning. Economy was prac-
ticed by him until it developed into a
selfish, narrow, grabbed, whitening
parsimony that well nigh questioned
the price of the oil cans and monkey
wrenches. printed on the overalls
which he fain would have bought at
bargain counter prices at the country
store The last time we saw his wife
she was wearing the same black coat
which she bought seven years before
for $99S, while Monday morning she
was still sweating and skinning her
knuckles on the tinkered up wash
board and ringer bought at a second
hand store ten years previous. Indus
try and economy are prime qualities
and most commendable; but, as in the
above, they can be carried to a dis
gushing and pitiful extreme.

SOME CROP RETURNS.

The government preliminary crop re-
port for November contains a large
fund of information with reference to
the volume of the different crops
grown in the country and the states in
which they are produced. In the pro-
duction of corn, which is far and away
the most valuable crop which the
country produces, Illinois stands at the
head, with 294,S60,000 bushels; Iowa a
close second, with $4,000 bushels;
Nebraska third, with 205, 10000 bush
els, and Missouri fourth, with 2O3, 1884,
900 bushels. In the production of rice
Louisiana stands first, with 11,S26,OO0
bushels, and Texas second, with 9,741,-
900. In the production of tobacco
Kentucky ranks first, with 100, 755, 900
pounds, while North Carolina, Virginia
and Tennessee follow, in the order
named, with 117,s7OO0O, 90, 543,O 900 and
45,756,O0O pounds respectively In the
raising of potatoes tie production Of
the leading states in bushels was:
New York, 34,OO4,OOO; Maine, 26,1OO,-

HOME PICkIED PORK

A reader of these notes, who has
had excellent success in picking small
supplies Of pork for home use, gives
us the following recipe as one which
will keep the pork in fine condition for
n long time and give 1t a fine flavor
and firm texture: Cut about twenty.
i've pounds of medium thin side pork
with a nice streak of fat and lean,
into pieces of proper length and width
to fill a four or five gallon jar. Rub
salt into the surface of the meat thor
oughly before putting in the jar. For
a brine take one pound of medium
brown sugar and four pounds of dia-
mond crystal or other good salt and
boil in enough water to make a gallon
OF liquid. Skim off any impurity, let
cool and pour over the pork in the jar,
allowing enough brine 70 completely
cover the meat. Cover With plate and
weight. and time will do tn rest.

RAW AND COOKED RATIoNs.

Some pretty definite information has
been published of late on the much
discussed question of the wisdom of
cooking grain rations for stock. Pro
fessor Henry of the Wisconsin Agri-
cultural college found as the result of
feed tests that 476 pounds Of uncooked
meal or grain were required to make
100 pounds Of gain in flesh, while of
the cooked ration sos pounds were re-
quired to accomplish the same result
This shows loss of about 6 per cent
of the feeding value of grain by cook
ing. A kindly Providence that evident
ly didn't have feed cookers in con-
temptation when creating the farofT
ancestors of the different species of
domestic animals seems to have equiD-
ped them with q digestive apparatus
able to get a maximum value out Of
most anything it might be called upon
to handle. Tie same thing may be
and probably is true of man. but he is
not much exercised by motives of saw
ing when it comes TO bis cvD bill of
fare.

Said to Have Originally Indicated

ThereAis a prevailing impression that
there is something In the word win

son Is usually associated with the idea
Of low temperature, but where the
word originated there was little Of
wintes as we understand 1t, while
there was a great deal of moisture at
the time the earth was nearest to the
sun, So that 1t is not the temperature
but the atmospheric condition that has
given us the word.
The word winter as we use It., is

This root "waif' is in the Sanskrit as
