creamerles Closing

The recent closing of the Brattle
Dor creamery leads one to Investigate
the cause of so many New England
creameries suspending operations
during the past few years. The far
mers have been gradually won away
from the creamery and induced to
ship their milk to the cities because
of the immediate cash returns being
a little larger losing sight of the fact
that in so doing they are taking away
from the farm a considerable amount
of feed for the soil In shipping milk
none of the by-products are retained,
less young stock can be raised and
less fertilizer is ready for the land.
1t is the present rather than the tu-
mre that concerns them A fifty cent
piece now looks larger than a silver
dollar later. Those who have stud
led farm economy agree that patron
izing a creamery is far better for the
farm than shipping milk. The cream
cry in this village is probably the
largest in southern Vermont, and it is
to be hoped that the patrons will not
be tempted by any milk shipping con.
Germs to change their patronage

PAULINE SUES FOR $4,000
Hypnotlst Alleges That Vaudeville
Manager Broke Contract

New York, Dec 14-Joseph r. Pou-
line. hypnotist, has brought suit in
the supreme court for $4,000 against
William Morris, Incorporated. Paul
inc, who is known on the vaudeville
stage as Pauline alleges that Morris,
the vaudeville manager, made a con
tract with him to play under his man.
agement for 20 weeks at $4,000 a
week discharged him after he had fill
ed IL weeks OF the contract and
broke the contract.
Morris says he cancelled the con
tract with Pauline after pertor-
nance in the Walker theatre at Win
nipeg, when the hypnotist appeared
there in condition OF intoxication
and insulted the audience. Morris
obtained an order from the supreme
court yesterday to examine the man

An incidental expense to Pauline in

Possibly one of the principal rea-
sons why the farmers of Vermont
have fallen so readily into the habit
of shipping their milk to the city mar
ket is because it makes less work for
the women folks. If so, the reason
is sufficient, The average farmer
doesn't work as hard as the average
farmers wife. One Of the causes OF
the depopulation of rural towns in
New England was the hardships 1t
entailed on the women folks On
western farms, there was isolation
and loneliness, but never the con
slant hard work in the house that
the women on the farms in the east
had to do. Conditions in recent
years have been changing for the
better, but there is still room for i'm
provement. When to relief from
caring for milk and butter, rural free
delivery and rural telephones are
added, rural electric lights, vacuum
cleaners, steam heat, good roads and
graded schools, rural life will grow
still faster in attractiveness.

The problem of controlling the
transmission of electric power with
in and without the state is pretty
sure to be subject of important leg
islation in Vermont in the near flu
ture, as it is already in many states.
Vermont has a great deal Of water
power available from its mountain
streams and they will be one of the
most important resources of the state
in the years to come This power
must be conserved for the benefit of
Vermont, for once gone it will be i'm
possible to ever get it back.
