PRESS COMMENT.
Pnhlic SchooI Gardens.

The Vermont State Fair association
will this year offer prizes for the pro-
ducts of public school gardens, the prizes
to be competed for at the exhibition in
White River Junction, Sept. 2O-23. The
prizes offered are for both flowers and
vegetables, and it is earnestly hoped that
the creation of this department of the
fair viii quicken an interest IN school
gardening that shall be state wide.
The school garden idea. it would seem,
is one that should be fostered by all who
desire the advancement of the public
veal. 1t cannot result otherwise than
in good for the community and the child
rem participating in the work. The boys
and girls who labor in the gardens will
be encouraged by the thought that they
are accomplishing. something; the labor
in the gardens will be health-giving and
mind-developing and as an educational
adjunct to the public school system the
garden will have an extreme value. By
all means let the Vermont public school
garden be established and maintained.
and when the fair opens may there be
the sharpest competition for the asso-
cations prizes.-[The Landmark.

Not a Live Industry.

"a man who was born in Oregon and
has always lived there is now making
his first trip East to the home OF his
ancestors. and writes to the Springfield
Republican in sharp criticism of the
apple-raising industry of this state. He
had heard his father praise the apples
raised in Massachusetts, and the shock
of his experience with them is reflected in
his language. Where are your or
chards?' he asks. L looked all along
the car line for new orchards, but saw
only old. scraggly trees. If it is true
that you used to raise good apples,
why don't you do it again? Coming
along on the Boston & Albany Railroad
I saw more vacant land than you would
see in the whole of Western Oregon,
from Portland to Medford. It is a good
thing occasionally to have turned loose
upon US a critic with fresh point of
view We have raised apples and good
ones in Massachusetts,. We now know,
or can easily learn, how to raise them
better than ever before. Why do we not
do it?"-[Bradford Opinion.

TRY unnledged Delegates.

The talk is quite general that many I'M
pledged and uninstructed delegations
will be sent to the convention for the ex-
press purpose of acting together in the
selection ofsome candidate of their choice.
Under such circumstances, the best that
the state affords would be available for
material. No man could fairly say nay
to a movement of this kind, if he were
summoned. Were the caucuses held to-
day. under the present condition of senti-
ment, we believe clear majority of the
delegates would be unpledged. Hnothing
better appears than is now offered, let
the voters take the matter in their own
hands, choose men not committed to any
one, and let them act independently at
the convention. 1t would be healthful
movement and worth while Randolph
Herald.
We hope the plan for unpledged dele
gates will be adopted in the caucuses in
every town in Windham county. Dele
gates free to act will exert mighty in
huence in the state convention. Through
unpledged delegates the way will be
opened to get a nominee for governor
who can be supported with genuine en-
thusiasm. Let's try it, Vermont

New England Pastures.

The United States department of
Agriculture has been investigating the
pasturage of the country and devising
means for its Improvement. They
found the greatest deterioration in the
dairy pastures ofeastern New York and
New England In other sections of the
country pastures of the same age used
for beef purposes show no deterioration.
One of the most harmful practices in
New England is turning cattle on the
pastures too early. In many instances
if the cattle were kept off until week or
ten days later the pasture would pro-
duce more food during the entire season
and carry more stock. Grass should be
allowed a chance to develop green leaf
surface if it is to give the best pasturage.
Another harmful effect of too early
pasturing is the packing of damp soil so
grass cannot grow vigorously from it.
For the Improvement of pastures the
best thing is a light top dressing of barn.
yard manure for four or FIVE years in
succession. Where pastures are too
rough to drive over commercial fertilizers
composed principally of phosphoric acid
and potash will be beneficial. Reseed-
ing with mixture of timothy, red-top,
bluegrass and white clover will also aid
in restoring the pastures. The cutting
of the weeds just before they go to seed
will aid in keeping the pastures from
getting weedy.
Steep hillsides where the soil is poor
and thin should be allowed to reforest

A Commercial Club.

The meeting last week Tuesday even
ing of a very liberal proportion of the
towns young active business men to dis
cuss the matter of forming a commercial
club should prove an important
one. In the first place it tended to
concentrate the thought and effort of all
business interests of the village on one
thing-something to improve and develop
ST. Johnsbury. If this concentration is
effected it will have strength enough to
make it's efforts felt. It is also healthy
thing for any town to have its men talk
ing it up rather than down. 1t will also
tend to broaden the spirit of the bust
ness men on the matter of the location of
any new enterprises. The notion that
anything new in town must be in your
own door yard in order to be of benefit
to you is one that kills every kind of de-
velopment except door yard undertake
ings. When it is realized that a new en-
terprise in town will bring more money
into town and that the expenditure of
that money cannot be confined to any
one interest the value of any growth is
apparent.
1t should be borne in mind that this
organization is not likely to revolution
ize st. Johnsbury. No one should deceive
himself into the thought that the place is
likely to experience a sudden boom as the
result of this organization. When organ
lied it will have the opportunity to give
away lots of money to induce unreliable
business concerns to come here and OF
course it cannot adopt such a course.
One will be likely to hear a great deal
about things that "want to come" here
and much less of things that do come
here. But an effective organization of
the nature proposed will be able to learn
of the opportunities to secure new bust
ness and will enable the town to avail
itself of any desirable advantages. For
that reason it is worthy of encourage
ment. The next meeting on Wednesday
evening, April 20, should be attended by
every man and representatives of every
interest that is ready to help a little
toward boosting" St. Johnsbury.

ADJUSTMENTS.
The Big Noise.

Only about week remains before the
curtain at The Colonial will rise on a
spectacular scene of mirth and melody,
gay and gorgeous jubilee ofjoy. Not
only will the minstrel first part
be more expensive and elaborate than
ever before, but the comic opera which
concludes the program, will assuredly
surprise and delight everyone with its
catchy music, brilliant costumes and
funny situations.
One of the most 1aughable features in
this production will be an original
burlesque: Deserted On Her Wooden
Wedding Day." This is mellow

probably the craziest conglomeration
ever collected. It is delightfully."- acted
by Mrs. B. c. Peters and Sam Currier,

FavOrS Fire Automobile.

Next Tuesday night the voters meet to
decide whether they will appropriate
money for new fire apparatus voted for
at the recent village meeting. An en-
dorsement of motor trucks for carrying
fire fighting apparatus has just come
from an unexpected source. Mayor
Burke of Burlington, who in the past
has been opposed to motor trucks, in his
annual message this year advocates the
selling of part of the fire horses and
hose carts now used by the city and in
stalling in their place an automobile
this because the automobile fire fighting
apparatus has passed the experimental
stage and for quick service has no equal.
He goes further and recommends the
adjustment of fire stations one, two
and four in the city and combining them
in one station equipped with automobile
apparatus. This he claims would save
$4,000 a year for the city. He said
further, "a comparative test for two
hundred miles service in responding to
say that this is more than any of our
five wagons has ever been called upon to
do in any one year. The cost, respective
ly, for each item is as follows: Automo-
bile service $43.8O; hose service, $439. 80,
a difference of $395.OO in favor of the
automobile, with decided Improvement
for quick service, especially when the con-
ditions of the roads are bad or when the
fire is some distance from the station"
These statements coming from the
head of the city where horses have been
installed for years and from a person
who has opposed motors in the past
should carry some weight with the
people of this village. It should influence
them to vote to redeem their promises
and to take a real progressive step.

as soon as possible. The department
will send information relative to the re-
foresting of such areas on application.
Any farmer interested in this subject
should send to the department for its
publication entitled Improvement of
Pastures in Eastern New York and The
New England States" That pamphlet
and the publications mentioned in it will
give information that will enable him to
make intelligent efforts to improve his
pastures and increase the capacity of his
farm.

Short Weights Again.

Having shown last week to some ex-
tent the prevalence of short weight and
measure sales it would seem fitting to
consider the situation in Vermont. This
state has law which if enforced might
protect the buyer to a considerable ex-
tent. The law provides that the state
treasurer shall preserve in his Office and
keep in repair all the standard scales,
weights and measures furnished by the
general government to the state and keep
a record of the same. Each county treas
urer must provide and keep in repair in
his office the following weights and meas
ures which shall be proved and sealed by
the state treasurer :-one half bushel,
one peck, one half peck, one gallon, one
two quart, one quart, one pint and one half
pint wine measure; one set ofbrass weights
from one ounce to four pounds; one ten
pound weight and one twenty pound
weight; and one yard measure. Each
county treasurer neglecting to do this is
liable to fine of one dollar for each
months neglect. Each town treasurer
dard measures which have been proved
and sealed by the county treasurer :-one
half bushel, one peck, one half peck one
gallon, one two quart, one quart, one
pint and one half pint wine measure; one
yard measure and such scales or weights
as the town directs.
But where can one find any of these
measures in either the state, county or
town Offices? If the state is to protect
itself the first step must be to provide
correct weights and measures. Any per-
son knowingly using any weights not
conforming to the standard or who alters
a weight, measure, scale, balance or beam
after it has been adjusted or sealed or
makes fraudulent use thereof shall be
fined for each offense fifty dollars. There
are other provisions in the law to protect
the public which we will not take the
space to repeat but it is evident Vermont
has considerable law on this matter
which is not enforced.
The enforcement of the state law
would protect Us only in the business
conducted in the state. The vast guam
titles of canned goods and that sold in
regular packages put up outside the
state must be reached in another way.
1t would seem that very effective way
to control this would be the passage of
federal law requiring all merchandise
in cans or packages sold in interstate
commerce to contain on the outside
of the package correct statement of its
quantity. If all interstate commerce
was compelled to give full weight it
would compel all firms doing business
inside of any state to give-full weight or
go out of business. Such a federal law
seems to be the most urgent necessity il
starting this reform and if congress
would pass such a law it might go a
long way in quoting the criticism and
distrust of that body which now exist
1t IS not unreasonable to demand honest
weight for honest money and we sincere
ly hope that we may soon realize this
much toward "a square deal"
