The AnqIo- Treaty.

The possibility of the United States
becoming an enemy of Great Britain on
account of a war between Japan and the
United States is now eliminated from
the offensive and defensive alliance of
Japan and Great Britain through a mod
ification of the Anglo Japanese treaty of
1905. which has just been signed in Lon
don by Foreign Secretary Grey and
Count Kato, the Japanese ambassador.
The signing took place on the 18th The
chief modification was in article 4,
which now reads as follows:
Should either high contracting party
conclude a treaty of general arbitration
with n third power, it is agreed that
nothing in this agreement shall entail
on such contracting party an obligation
to go to war with the power with whom
such treaty Of arbitra ton is in force"
This refers manifestly to the pending
arbitration treaty between the United
States and England. 1t is rumored that
Japan now has expressed the desire to
be included in the general arbitration
pact with this country and Great Brit
ain.

The College and the People.

The spirit of public service is becom-
ing more and more an actuating princi-
pie of educational institutions. Where
formerly the service was local in nature
and extent one now finds the service eX-
tended to the doors of the people. More
people attend institutions of higher ed
ucation than ever before, but student
enrolment is not the whole measure of
college service. One of the most salu-
tary means of broadening college service
is the movement called college extension
which has met with marked success in
of systematic extension of the college to
made in Vermont last year when Dean
Walter e. Howard organized college OK
tension lecture courses to be given by
members of the faculty of Middlebury
college, The movement was well re-
ceived by the people from the first and
there were calls for above 60 lectures in
all parts of the state. The courses will
be continued this year under the direc-
ton of Prof. Raymond Mcfarland of
the department of pedagogy, who an
nounces an attractive list of speakers
and subjects The plan is to give the
lectures in groups OF five, no lecturer APP
pearing twice in a course. Twenty-Five
subjects are offered from the fields of
history, biography, litera ture, education,
sociology and travel. The courses are
conducted under the auspices of the
school, the church. the Grange, and lit
erary clubs-in either case the best
thought of the college finds an avenue
for reaching the people.

The marker was taken from Water

Don't Run the Mental Machinery at
Nlqht

1t is a great thing to learn to shut
off the mental steam when you quit
work, says Orison SWEET Marden in
Success Magazine" What would you
think of a factory manager who would
leave all of his power turned on after
the operators had left the factory, the
delicate machinery running everywhere,
pounding itself to pieces, grinding out
its delicate bearings without producing
anything? Many of us do not turn off
our mental power after we are through
producing or creating for the day. We
carry our business home. take it to bed
with us, think, plan, worry and waste
precious energy in all sorts of ways, in
superfiuous thinking, foolish worrying
that produces nothing. but grinds out
the exquisite mental machinery and I'M
fits it for the next days work. 1t Is
great art to learn to shut off power
when through our days work so that we
can oil our mental machinery, refresh
our minds, and recuperate ourselves so
that we can go to the next days work
completely reinvigorated.
Many men seem to think that they
are accomplishing something if they
keep their minds on business even wnen
not at work, but they really accomplish
less than nothing, because they are
wasting precious mental energy, the
power for concentration, the vigor, the
focusing OF the mind, which is impera-
tive for creating purposes.

Harvesting tho Tobacco Crop.

Tobacco cutting In the Connecticut
valley has been begun this week, and by
another week it will be in full sway
The 1911 New England tobacco crop is
of unusual Importance and both packers
and manufacturers are watching the
harvest with keen interest. For several
weeks buyers have been scurrying
through the more important tobacco
towns. The greatest interest naturally
centres in shaded tobacco, which has
again come into the foreground in the
Connecticut valley, which, experts pre-
dict, is to be the centre of cigar leaf
production in the United States, If not
of the world. The 1911 New England to-
bacco area, according to the department
of agriculture is 1890 acres, an increase
of per cent, over last year. Connecti-
cut has 14,100 acres, Massachusetts $500,
Vermont 200 and New Hampshire 100.
The entire New England tobacco area,
except few hundred acres, lies within
a 30-mle radius of Springfield, Mass.
Upward of 5000 acres of tobacco, or more
than one sixth of the New England
crop, are grown in Sufeld.
The 1911 Connecticut valley prices are
az yet a matter of conjecture. Men who
have grown gray in the business say
that not since the Civil war have the
big markets of the world been so de-
peted of really good tobacco. The de-
mand will in part be met by unusually
heavy importations of Sumatra leaf

State Forest Nursery's Big Business.

Now that the forest planting season
has closed the following summary of the
nursery stock sold by the state nursery
may prove Interesting.
The total number of trees sold was
1853, 200 an increase of $500 over 1910.
These went out to 70 different parties
private owners and corporations
An encouraging awakening occurred
on the west side of the state. Whereas
WinNsOr county has formerly led in
this enterprise, Rutland county has this
year planted the most trees, largely
through the activity of the Vermont
Marble company and the Rutland Rail-
way, Light d Power company. Windsor
county ranks second in this respect, the
most extensive planting being done by
w. d. Woolson, of Springfield; and
Windham county is third. Considerable
planting was done in Bennington, Essex,
and Lamolle counties this year, where
very little interest has been shown pre-
viously.
The largest private pantatio made
this year was that of DR.. William Stan
ford Stevens, of Enosburg, where about
$4,000 trees were planted, part of which
had been raised on his farm.
Extensive plantations were made also
! on the state lands in Plainfield and
Sharon and by the International Paper
| company on its Vermont lands.
Up to the present time the state nur-
sery has been unable to supply the de-
| mand for three year old trees, but from
now on it is expected that practically
unlimited orders can be filled, as about
100000 two year. old pine seedlings were
| this year transplanted in the nursery.
| White pine will continue to be the chief
| tree raised on the light soil of the Bur
| lington nursery, but at the Sharon nur-
sery, where the soil is somewhat bet
| ter, it is planned to raise a large supply
| of Norway spruce. Great loss was suf-
| fered during the past winter in both
| nurseries on account of damage by ice,
| several hundred thousand seedlings be-
| ing destroyed.
