INTER. COLLEGIATE AMENITIES.

DR.. Thomas of Middlebury college has
held out the olive branch to DR. Ben.
ton Of the university Of Vermont in a
very taotful interview in which he said
that he hoped for new era of growth
and development not only at the uni
versity OF Vermont but throughout the
state "as result of the coming to
Vermont of this successful and progress
sive educator from the middle West"
Rutland Herald
So far as ii is possible for two in.
stitutions, which draw from much the
same territory, to dwell together in
peace and unity, the state university
and Middlebury get along quite well
by leaving each other alone. 1t has
been ascertained through numerous IL
Illustrations that the two cannot meet on
the athletic field with any due decorum;
hence they have no athletic relations.
Nor have they relations in any other
contests, perhaps because OF the ill-feel-
ing in athletics. However, that spirit
of rivalry for intercollegiate honors need
not prevent them from working, shoulder
to shoulder, to- the advancement OF edu-
cation; and President Thomas of Mid
dlebury has done the graceful thing in
thus extending fluctuations. Doubtless,
the new president of the university will
meet him in the same spirit.

question is: Us Governor Bass or

DIST URBERS OF RESI-
Other Places Than Annapolis Where
Town Ordinances Are Violated

Most towns, and a few townships,
have ordinances in name only, the
same being kept in the breach rather
than in the observance. Not to be
outdone by her sister city" Annapo-
lis, Arundel-on-the-Bay has just a
few such laws.
Notable among the ordinances pass
ed by the town Council at Arundel this
Summer is one requiring all owners
of poultry, especially Growing roost-
ers, to keep the Objectionable fowl
foul in more ways than one-from per-
ambulating between the hours of 3
and a. m. and testing their Growing
ability under the sleeping quarters of
the inhabitants of the summer colony.
Despite the town ordinance the
ROSTERS do crow, and the rest and
peace of mind of those who might
otherwise sleep, is disturbed. Several
weapons have been secured and soon
more stringent methods will be adopt
ed that the ROSTERS may cease from
Growing and the sleepers be at rest.

States to Aid in Agricultural Work

increasing the amount of their appro-
priations for the work. This years
appropriation by states aggregated
$3O1,7SO. Indiana appropriated an
average amount, $4,000. New York
led, with $4,000; Iowa was second.
with s32, 900, and Wisconsin third,
with $4,000. The department points
out that to the S301,7S0 should be
added the amount used by the sew
eral states for extension work from
the farmers institute fund, of which
no separate account was kept.
From the standpoint of the federal
government, agricultural extension is
a business proposition. 1t undertakes
to do for men engaged in agriculture
what proprietors Of mills and manu-.
factories are striving to accomplish in
their business-the conservation Of
waste, economy Of effort and mate
rial, and an increase in the output
with reduced expense 1T strives to
do with and for a man that which a
manufacturer desires to have don for
his machines-improve 1t that it may
turn out more and better quality Of
products" says Prof. John Hamilton
of the office of experiment stations.
With the hope of encouraging the
movement, the department has just Is
sued a pamphlet containing the views
of several of the men prominently N
gagged in the work.

70 DRAW AND HOLD TRADE

Most OF us" said Mr.. Shovelton, ARE looking out
for ourselves; / think we'll all admit that. The
trouble with most of us is that we don't do this
intelligently; we are always thinking Of ourselves
and our own interest only; and that's where we
slip a cog. Let me illustrate:
Il buy fruit to carry home; I've done that for
well, a good many years, and for a long time I
bought around in various places. Then one day
some years ago 1 stopped at a store where I liked
the looks of the fruit and where as ] noticed a mo-
ment later, the paper bags were a little heavier
than those l had been accustomed to find.
And when this dealer had put the fruit in one Of
these bags he didn't simply twist the neck Of 1t
and hand 1t over to me so in a form inconvenient
to carry. He folded the top Of the bag over and
rolled it down to form a handle-a grip piece; and
then he tied this bundle around securely with
Irvine, thus making 1t up altogether into a bundle
that was secure and handy to carry.
"Of course I liked all that, and l found that he
always did up his packages so or putting on some
times a wood and wire handle; but always he made
the package secure and handy for me. He had
some thought for me, and I've been buying of him
ever since; and IL he should move I'd follow him.
l would go out of my way to trade with him.
The moral is this: Any small storekeeper, II
his goods are right. can build up a trade and hold
it and increase it If he has the intelligence and the
human quality that prompts him faithfully to CON
slider not himself alone but as well the wants and
interests of his customers"
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1911-03-03

WASHINGTON.-One Of the most
w bitter fights in the history of the
national capital for many years back
has lately been going on, and doctors
all Owe the United States are falling
into line for or against the proposal
that we shall have a national bureau
Of health. Mass meetings are being
called and mile-long petitions are be-
ing dumped upon the national legisla-
tors. Tons of mail and thousands Of
kilograms keep coming urging them to
vote for the conservation of human
life" Other tons of letters and innu-
merable messages plead, demand and
entreat them to vote down what is
characterized as a doctors trust"
Hardly a town OF any consequence
In The country has failed to have mass
meetings, councils and semt-public
gatherings of both factions. The med
ical men of the country have fallen
out over the proposition of having
some general governing body to over
see things medical In the United
States. Washington is filled up with
nghting cohorts. The cry Of mo
quarter" is the popular one, and the
fighters + flashing out at each other
bitterly in the committee rooms. in the
press and from the lecture platforms.
All the fighting came about in this
