Sum mer Session News.

With over eighty students in attend
ance and the work of the classes well
under way, the second summer session
of Middlebury College is making rec
ord for itself Nearly all of the stu
dents have registered for the six weeks
of the session. Two model classes have
been formed, one in connection with
the work in Arts and Crafts which is
conducted by Miss Pierce, and one in
Manual Training which is under the
instruction of Mr.. Jackson of the He
brew Polytechnic Institute of New
York City. New classes have been
formed also in beginning French, in
Trigonometry and in Solid Geometry.
The chorus, under the direction of
Mrs. Howard, has begun work on the
opera Martha. The rehearsals will be
held in the vestry of the Congregational
church for the purpose of giving sing
ers of the town better opportunity to
attend. These rehearsals are free and
all singers are invited to come.
An excursion is being planned for
Saturday and several of the visiting
teachers will take the trip to Grand View
and picnic on the mountain.
On Monday and Tuesday evenings
two lectures were given by DR.. Brain
erd Kellogg of Englewood, N. j., the
first on "Longfellow." the second on
Lowell" The hemicycle was filled to
overlooking and DR.. Kellogg's lectures
were highly appreciated. Immediately
following the lecture of Monday even
ing reception was given to the stu
dents and faculty at Starr library which
was largely attended and greatly en-
| joyed. Much credit is due Miss Clark
and Miss Williams of the library for the
skill and taste displayed in carrying out
the arrangements.
On Friday evenings, throughout the
remainder of the session, DR.. Burrage
of the department of Greek, will give
an illustrated lecture on Greek Life
in the Latin room at the chapel. These
lectures are open to the public and it is
hoped that all who are interested will
avail themselves of the opportunity tC
attend.
The morning exercises at the chape
are conducted by DR.. Hesselgrave, ir
the absence of DR.. Thomas. DR.. Hes
selgrave will select readings from the
New Testament which trace in a pro-
gressive manner the evolution of the
New Testament church. These read
ings, with the calculations given by DR..
Hesselgrave, will prove extremely in
teresting to students of Biblical Litera
ture and church history.

The Dairy Industry of the United
States

According to the last year book of
the Department of Agriculture, there
are 81, 100, 900 mich cows in the United
States, and these are worth $702 ,945, 900.
The magnitude of the industry can
perhaps be best understood when it is
considered that these cows produce
yearly about $1,000, 100000. worth of
dairy products.
There is no other branch of diversified
agriculture 80 important to the progress
of community. The fertility of the
soil can best be maintained by the
| liberal use Of barnyard manure and the
dairy herd not only makes this possible,
but dairying is also more remunerative
than other branches of farming when
properly carried on.
Dairying has made wonderful progress
since the advent of the modern creamery
and the consumer of butter has not only
been benefited by being furnished a
more wholesome and palatable article of
food, but the wife in the farm home
has been relieved of the drudgery Incl.
dent to making butter on the farm.
Where formerly the cream was ripened
and churned into butter under conditions
not conducive to fine quality in the
finished product and in the majority of
cases by unskilled hands, now the most
of the milk or cream is delivered to a
modern creamery where conditions are
suited to the purpose of making butter
and the result has been wonderful i'm
provement in the quality of our dairy
products. AS the quality has improved
consumption has increased and the pro-
gress of dairying has been remarkable
during the past decade.
The perpetuity of the country.s great
ness depends upon increasing the pro
ductiOn of farm products from year to
year, a result which not only furnishes
our people with food but maintains the
prosperity of our farming communities
Increase in production can only come
through improved methods of agriculture
!: and soil improvement. When it is con
sidered that the dairy COW is the foun
dation for soil improvement and farming
prosperity, her importance is best under
stood, and interest in her should not b.
/ confined to her owner. She is an i'm
portant factor in the development ant
prosperity of our country.

in Vermont. But so long as that mis-
taken impression was abroad it had as
detrimental an effect as if the conditions
were as bad as reported.

all that it has an excellent supply of
water for drinking purposes and mum
icipal system that furnishes an unlimit-
ed supply for fire and sprinkling purpos-
es. Its water supply is pure,
is sufficient and no one need
shun St. Johnsbury or its water.
t is also hoped that the press, which has
commented on the poor water here, will
inform its readers that st. Johnsbury
is now on the pure water map"
Now if Vergennes, whose water is as
bad, if not worse, could see the way
clear to substitute an adequate supply
of pure water for domestic purposes the
number of Vermont towns whose water
supply is questionable would be reduced
to a minimum.

Over in France the steady decline in
the birth rate is at last causing serious
concern. With the population of Ger
many increasing by leaps and bounds
while that of France remains stationary
the outlook is not promising. The
French government now proposes to tax
bachelors, give bounties for large fam
lilies and compel all unmarried employees
of the state over twenty-five years OF
age to marry. 1t is to be hoped that
the desired effect may be realized. 1t

Canada are remarkable for their fecun'

We hope the action taken by the
students of the University of New
York, whereby they have sworn never
to bring discredit upon their city, may
prove contagious. If it does it will
prove good thing for many cities and
for thousands of people. If the mega
tive form of the vow could only be
changed to positive form in which the
students would pledge themselves to
bring credit upon the city by faithful
discharge of the duties of citizenship, it
would be even better. There is not
community but would be improved by
such action whether by students or non
students.

A young Massachusetts woman who
had taken a college course in farming
took an abandoned farm in that state
two or three years ago, and by her in
tensive farming she has already made
good profit off the farm. Her method
with its resultant success points the
way into which many another person
might we'll follow. In the eastern
states and also in other portions of the
country there are abandoned farms
which, in proper hands, and scientifical-
" farmed, might well prove veritable
bonanzas. This fact ought to give
potency to the cry of ''back to the

ST. Johnsbury, the seat of the largest
scale factory in the world, has suffered
for years from the fact that its viii
lage water supply, taken from
the Passumpsic river was not up
to standard. In fact it has been
a positive menace to the heath of the
citizens of that village. All this is now
changed. The Caledonian of that place
says, in its issue of last week
"The action of the special village
meeting last week in instructing the
trustees of the village to discontinue all
services of river water wherever it
could be used for domestic purposes was
one that should commend itself to every
citizen of the village. For years
st. Johnsbury, has suffered seriously
from the advertising its impure river
water has had. People outside did not
understand that but a'small proportion
of the village was using this impure
water and the general impression was
that st. Johnsbury had no pure water
This, of course, was a gross error as
nearly all of the water used for domes
tic purposes came from a pure supply

To live in the cloud-land of sentiment
talism may be very delightful to some
people whose life is theoretical rather
than practical. But it is the man of
sentiment and not of sentimentalism
that gains his place in the thought and
affection of others, and this because
sentiment does things in loving
sympathy while sentimentalism expends
