back to them the memories, of the
parting hour of their own school days,
and made them feel again the pangs
of loneliness and the new feeling of
responsibility, of starting out itno the
world, to either ascend or descend the
ladder of fame, as they had felt 1t,
some of them, years before.
Following the program, Professor
D. NJ. Metzger gave an address to
the class that will linger long in the
minds of those who heard it. The
subject dealt principally with charac-
ter building and the size of the world
wrought by each individual for his
own life. His remarks were forceful
and to the point and were appreciat-
ed by the audience as well as the
members of the class.
Principal Walter l. Ford presented
the diplomas with a word of congrat-
ulation to each graduate, after which
the platform was crowded with the
friends and parents of the first class
of Dallas High, showering upon them
congratulations and wishes for sue
cessful and happy future.

Addison county also leads in number of
sheep with Washington county in eighth
place. Franklin county ranks first in
number of swine, but Washington

is the largest poultry raising county in
Vermont, Washington county ranking
fourth. Addison is far ahead of any
other in number of colonies of bees,
Washington county holding ninth place
with only Ala colonies.
Windham county reports the largest
amount expended for fertilizer, $50, 1913,

23O. The rank of Washington county is
seventh. Windsor county surpasses all
others in bushels of corn raised, Wash
ington county ranking eighth. Addison
county is far in the lead of all others in
bushels of oats raised, Washington
county being tenth in the list. Although
very little wheat was raised in the state,
every county reports few acres cult
waited. Addison county ranked first,
raising nearly half of Vermont's total
crop. Washington county raised only
1875 bushels. Addison county stands first
in bushels of.barley raised and Washing
ton county, seventh. Bennington is the
banner buckwheat county in the state,
Washington being tenth in the list.
Little Grand Isle county leads all the
rest in raisingl.. beans, growing nearly
half the product of the state, Rutland
county with crop of nearly half mil
lion bushels, ranks first, with Washing
ton county second, 400, 1870 bushels being
reported.
One of the principal Vermont crops
is hay, andIFranklin county leads, Wash
ington county ranking eighth. Only SIS
tons of alfalfa are reported, but every
county is represented with the exception
of Orleans, Washington county report
ing two tons.
These are only dry figures but the
statistics tell the story of Vermont
agricultural status in unmistak able
terms. Parts of the story are very
creditable and other parts by no means
are encouraging. 1t is by the contem-
plating of our weaknesses that we grow
stronger and Vermonters ought to show
their ability to extract inspiration even
from census tabulations. Montpelier

Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans, who
died Tuesday, had all the qualities tina t
go to make up a first-class fighting man
and popular hero. 1t has been said of
him that he was full of fight from his
toenails to his topknot" 1t might also
have been said that he was full of
strange oaths and whimsical expressions
that caught the public ear every time he
spoke. Withall, he was an excellent
commander, quick thinker, the sturd-
lest kind of American and a good COM
bination of the old-time seadog and the
modern commander. He it was who
started the "Sweet Sixteen" around
the world. That was one of the finest
assignments a naval officer ever receiv-
ed in times of peace, but it was no
child's job, and the way in which Evans
started his fleet to the corners of the
world was enough in itself to fix his
place in the history of the navy. Bos-
