Railroads and Development.

The action of the White River Railroad
in offering prizes of the most successful
growers of potatoes along it's line, is one
that will attract general attention. 1t
seems like very good business move on
the part of the railroad and one that is
likely to educate the farmers in getting
the largest results from their soil. 1t
will stimulate intensive farming wher-
ever it entices one to enter the competi-
ton and that is what is most needed
among Vermont farmers.
1t will also attract attention among
other lines of railroad as a means Of
building up business for themselves. If
for instance the Boston and Maine road
shonld install some prize system through
out the Passumpsic valley that would
increase the production of potatoes or
fruit or any other farm product it would
reap a direct benefit. If it should develop
the fruit business by a system OF prizes
that would make it possible to operate
special fruit trains during the harvest
season and get uniform sorting of the
fruit it would enable much larger scale
of fruit culture here than is possible under
present conditions.
The railroads, if they will, can become
one of the strongest influences in develop
ing New England and we wish the
venture of the White River Railroad
success not only for it's own benefit but
for the valuable object lesson it would be
to transportation interests in this whole
| section.
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1910-05-18

is feeling. however. among the COM
mon people that unless he can show that
he can give the county better service than
any other man he should not ask for
further honor in that position and all
those who have business to do with the
sheriffs office are very anxious that the
high sheriff of the county be located in
St. Johnsbury where he is always ac-
cessible. Under the present arrange
ments it is many times impossible to get
hold of the sheriff in time to secure the
desired service. Mr.. Winch's private
business has often in the past prevented
him from giving prompt service and his
private interests at his home are so large
that he does not feel he can leave and
come to St. Johnsbury and give his
whole attention to the office for which
the state pays him a regular salary,
$1,000 year and fees.
For these reasons those who have the
most business for the high sheriff to do
are very anxious that the Office go this
year to Mr.. Worthen. For eight years
the late Sheriff Sulloway, has served for
four years as constable and jailer and is
thoroughly competent to perform the
duties of high sheriff. Under these con-
ditions it would seem that the people of
the county have the opportunity to
make change in high sheriff that would
greatly improve the service at no in
crease in cost over the present conditions
and give the tax payers what the law
contemplates, the entire service of a man
under salary as sheriff of the county.
Mr.. Worthen is unquestionably ahead
today in the race for sheriff and it looks
as though he would win. In the interests
of prompt and efficient service, the avail
ability of an official located at St. Johns
bury the CALIFORNIAN advocates the NOM
ination and election of W. H. Worthen
as high sheriff.

to the marketing of first-quality blueber-
ries, cranberries, apples, Strawberries,
peaches and eggs, and over the inevitable
improvement of business methods all
New England will have reason to rejoice.
"The same cooperation that has solved
the problems incidental to the national
sale of the oranges, lemons and grape
fruit of California, the apples ofWashing-
ton and Oregon and the grain of the Mid
die Western States is needed here in the
East for the economical marketing of
our agricultural products.
by combining and advertising, the
farmers will be able to deal directly with
the consumer and thus get fair margin
of profit, instead of allowing the middle
men to fatten at the expense OF both the
consumer and the producer.
1880 men in the advertising business,
that exemplifcationo fsharp, almost mer-
CHESS competition, can pull together as
they undoubtedly do in the Pilgrim Pub
licity Association for the advancement of
the business interests of all New England,
any local group of producers whose in
terests are affiliated can organize for mu-
tual help. With such an organization
the advertising man will cooperate just
as enthusiastically as with any similar
organization of manufacturers. For bet
ter conditions among the farmers will
make more prosperous New England"
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1910-05-18


THE agriculturist can build up valua-
BILE names of similar import to those trade
names identified with the shoe and leath-
er textile, jewelry and other industries.
For example. do we not ask for Florida
oranges Colorado apples Rocky Ford
melons. Georgia peaches Vermont ma
pie sugar, 'Cotuit' or Blue Point oys-
ters? Why, we not only ask for them.
but we are willing to pay extravaganza
prices for these products, because through
various methods of advertising their
names have become associated with SUI
perior quality.
"Well from Aroostook County, Me-,
come yearly ten-to twenty million bush
els of potatoes of quality which only
one other county in America can pro-
duce. But how many housewives ask the
grocer tor Aroostook potatoes? Not one
in ten thousand.
$50 the advertising man would have
the Aroostook County potato-growers
form some sort of an association and adj
vertise the reasons why Aroostook Coun-
| ty potatoes are the. best in the world.
An intelligent advertising campaign, such
as the Pilgrim Publicity Association
would gladly work out, would give the
| potato-grower quick market near home
and at prices that would prevent the
sacrificing OF first-quality tubers at the
starch factories.
"The plan proposed is applicable also

PRESS COMMENT.
Fleetwood Ahead of Mead.

The Barton Monitor and some other
state papers in discussing the governor
ship campaign declare that it is Mead
against the field. Is this correct at the
present stage of the canvass? Of course
down here at Bennington we are far
from the center of population and also
from the political centers so that we
may be wisled, but looking at the can
vass as dispassionately as we are able
and trying to state the thing as we see it,
without prejudice, it appears that Fleet
wood has passed Mead in the race and is
now the leading candidate. Of course
partisans of various candidates are in
clined to see things from the viewpoint
of their favorite and anybody is likely to
be misled by unconcious prejudice, but
there are many things that indicate a
disintegration of some of the support
which appeared earlier sure to go to DIR.
Mead and the Banner considers him now
only in second place in the race The
Bennington Banner.

Fleetwood and a Referendum.

Fleetwood has been making a good
impression and is working hard to make
the state believe that he can fulfill the
promises in his platform. His referen-
DUN proposition, however, is like a
shifting cargo which sinks a ship.-TRut-
land Herald.
A referendum on the methods of hand
ling the traffic in Intoxicating liquors in
Vermont has been favored by most of
the state church conventions and by the
state grange. There is no use in at
tempting to disguise the fact that those
who are calling the loudest for a referen-
dunn want some system of state prohi-
| bition. The leaders do not want the old
Vermont prohibition law enacted again,
but they believe that law can be draft
| ed which will be much superior to the
| old prohibitory law and also superior to
! the present local option law. Many
who are earnestly advocating a refer
endum are saying that they believe that
the present law is preferable to the old
| but they want chance to try framing a
law which will be an Improvement on
| b 9TH.
! So far there are four announced candi-
| dates for the republican nomination for
the governorship. Three have not been
heard to utter even whisper about a
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1910-05-18

The uniformity with which the diff
ferent Mead papers~throughout YER
mont have come out during the past
week with the statement that DR.. Mead
is sure of winning the contest war
rants a suspicion that the brethren
have had instructions from some central
source to issue band wagon appeal to
the voters of Vermont. The purpose
evidently is to hold the old force to-
gether and attract if possible new re-
cruits who always like to go with the
crowd. The success of this move is yet
to be seen, because as far as we have
been able to see DIR. Mead is not gaining
strength, but has lost the support of
some newspapers and has certainly got
to meet new opposition in territory
where he claimed to have it all. We also
hear that he cannot by any means secure
a solid delegation from his own county.
If the early claims of the Mead forces
that they had the south end of the state
were true it is certain that the appear
ance of J. K. Batchelder of Arlington as
a candidate must decrease the doctors
strength very materially because it is
admitted by all that Mr.. Batchelder
will be very strong in that section.
In the case of Mr.. Fleetwood it is
evident he is gaining strength. From
every part of the state this is admitted
and some newspapers that were not for
him at first are now giving him hearty
support. His appearance in many diff
ferent towns recently and his bold I'M
equivoca1 stand on the issues before the
people are winning him new strength.
In meeting the issues squarely he pre-
sents a strong contrast to the doctor,
who so far as known, has not taken
definite stand on any question that has
been put to him. So we believe the at
tempt to represent Mr.. Mead as sure of
victory is only an attempt on the part
of his managers to whistle and keep up
their courage.

Lieutenant GoYernOrship.

The candidacy of L. P. Slack for the
lieutenant governorship continues to
gain strength and there is gro wing belief
that he will be found to be the winner
when the vote in the state convention is
counted. Everything indicates to-day
that he will go to the convention with a
solid vote from his county and people
from all sections of Vermont are glad to
get free from the embarrassment of the
dual candidacy in Windsor county and
stand for man who will bring no local
fight to the convention to be settled
This is not his only source of strength
MIR. Slack is an able lawyer of the well
known firm of Dunnett & Slack and
has won strong position in his profes
ate of 1904, legislature that accompli
shed much real progressive legislation
He also served on the special taxation
commission that was appointed in 19Oe
and reported to the legislation of 1908
In these positions he acquired an accurate
knowledge of conditions in Vermont anC
the ability to accomplish things. His lie
gal training will especially well equiv
him to aid the senate of 1910 in consider
ing the constitutional changes that will
be proposed. On this subject he hold:
progressive ideas and can be of great
value to the state
