a subject. important alike TO the
farmer and the railroads, is good
more of science. To insure a fair
return upon the constantly appreci-
aung value of land the amount of
crop per acre must be increased and
the cost of hauling to the railroad sta
ton reduced. After the farmer has
solved the question of soil treatment
and methods Of cultivation there still
remains the movement OF the crop over
the wagon roads to the railroad sta
uon. This expense the farmer must
bear, and ii enters into MS cost of
production Just as much as cultiva-
ton, harvesting or ginning, and is
brand OF expense on which greater
saving can be made than in any other
way.
According to the Office of public roads
OF the United States department of ag-
riculture the average cost to haul
ton of farm produce one mile in this
country is % cents. The American
Encyclopedia tells US that similar serv
ice on European highways costs but
cents We have as good teams as the
farmers of Europe 1t is the condition
of the roads that makes the difference.

Craftsbury, the docket entry is as
follows: No appearance, which
would indicate that the parties had
arranged the matter before the court
and had agreed to let the case go off
the docket that way. Thus ended the
legal battle over some of the results
of digging the channel into Long
Pond in Glover June 9Th, 1910, or
100 years ago.
I'm meeting here today to cele-
brate the centennial or the accidental
destruction of Long Pond, by the band
of pioneers, which at the time was
considered a catastrophe, but which
proved to be one of the most FORUM
ate happenings that ever occurred in
the history of the State of Vermont.
Taking into consideration the north
east shore being so low and so thin,
it's foundation so deceitful, and what
proved to be of no stability. it was
only a question of time when the wat
ers of Long Pond must have broken
away At that time the settlers, for
the most part lived upon the high and
open ground. and the shores of the
streams were covered with thick tim
Der. Just think OF what would have
been the result. if this pond had stood
until now, and then gone out. The
terrible results thereof would be al
most beyond comprehension. The act
of man, or of few men have many
times saved the lives of few persons;
but the digging of this short ditch one
hundred years ago, undoubtedly saved
vast amount of property, and hun
dreds of human lives; as a large share
of the villages of Glover Barton, and
Orleans would have been destroyed;
to say nothing of the beautiful homes
the entire distance from here to the
lake.
Il deplore that we do not know the
names of all who took part in that
work, so we could inscribe their names
upon the Hero Roll of the State of
Vermont"

Tax Rate Causes Trouble,

The current tax rate in Bethel, $3.50,
is proving a serious matter for local
borrowers who find the local capital
lists unwilling to take any money out
of the banks. The high rate is eXcep-
tional and is the result of an unfor-
tunate combination of high fire rate
of 55 cents because of the new fire
rllnp, an unprecedented school :l'e
deficiency and the increased rate of
interest on the school house debt and
an addition of % cents to the town
tax in anticipation of the cost of the
new highway and underpass.

MIDSHIPMAN
KING HOME
FOR HEAL TIL

Midshipman Samuel Wilder King,
United States Navy, who just grad
uated in the 10 class at Annapolis,
number 100 in the list, returned on the
transport Sherman yesterday to visit
with his mother and brothers for two
or three months. Samuel Wilder King
is the third naval cadet accredited to
Hawaii now holding commissions, the
first being the son of Captain Pond,
the second Ensign Lando and now King,
all High School boys.
Midshipman King did not accompany
the graduating class on it's summer
cruise to Europe, owing to the fact that
he has had some trouble with his eyes,
and he is to undergo a final physical
examination at the end of his leave of
absence, to determine whether or not
he is to retain his commission in the
navy.
At the end of his second year Cadet
King was confronted with negative
report ON his eyesight. To remedy this
he will have the summer months to
look after his eyes. This does not mean
that his eyesight is bad, but according
to the strict requirements of the navy
his eyesight is not up to the mark.
Otherwise Midshipman King has made
fine record at the naval academy. He
was accompanied home by his brother
who is a member of the survey depart
ment of the government, and another
brother, who is employed at the Gus
toms, met him at quarantine.

Japanese Strike Leader Starts
Back After Being Released
From Jail.

Forty Honolulu japanese yesterday
went to the Channel wharf to bid fare
well to G. Negoro, the erstwhile labor
agitator who was released from jail
here few days ago after having served
time for melting disorders during the
strike in this city, who sailed for Yo-
kohama ON the liner China.
Negoro showed the effects of his inn
prisonment. He had acquired a pale
complexion, characteristic of persons
confined indoors, but he was apparently
in the best of spirits.
As he walked up the gangway his
countrymen on the pier sent up deaf
ening shout of applause, which was re.
peated several times and acknowledged
by Negoro.
Before he was released from prison
it was understood Negoro would return
to Japan.

necessary to bring the party here.
wireless from Larz Anderson, q
member of the party of Secretary Dick
inson, was read, in which he expressed
his thanks for the gracious entertain
ment afforded them by the civic bodies
of the city. The message had been

entertainment committee, but as Mr..
Gartley is ON Hawaii, Brewer & Co.
turned it over to the chamber, for whom
it was rightly intended.
A letter from George B. Mcclellan
was also read, confirming the cabled
news of the money for the Mahuku

the city on the acquisition it is about
TO receive in the federal building.
