practically worthless now because of
the Seven Sisters" bill passed at
the last session of the Legislature,
Mr. Congleton declared.

Here are some interesting figures
from the records of the Chicago
Court of Domestic Relations as to
the causes of domestic trouble. In
AZ per cent of the cases liquor was
the cause of the trouble, in IA per
cent immortality, in 10 per cent dis
ease, in IL per cent i'll temper, in six
per cent wife's parents, in one per
cent husbands parents, in four per
cent married too young, in three
per cent laziness, in six per
cent miscellaneous. Liquor is re-
sponsible for the great majority of
the trouble. The court reports that
in so per cent of the cases of separ-
alton reconciliations have been eff
fected and over $4,000 has been
collected and turned over to depend
ent wives and children during the
past year. Probably trouble by par
ents cannot be reduced but there
should be less trouble from liquor
and immortality.

LittIeton Fooled

In giving an account of a special
district meeting which rescinded by
a large majority the vote to pur-
chase an automobile fire truck for
that village the Littleton Courier
says:-'Another thing that proved
convincing was the report from St.
Johnsbury, where they are using
such a truck, that the machine be-
came stalled in the mud four hours
the other day after it had started
for a fire." The voters of Lttleton
were completely fooled by that re-
port as it is made up out of whole
cloth. The ST. Johnsbury automobile
fire truck has not been stalled in
the mud since it was installed here.
There have been twenty-four private
alarms of fire since the first day of
last January in all parts of the viii
lage and there has not been a time
that the truck and firemen were not
on the ground inside of five minutes
and generally in from two to three

Ohio is still a leader in new fang

good but the bill also provides that

er expects to have any.
1t doesn't require course in any
school of finance to demonstrate
that the consumer is the fellow who
pays the bills, including the taxes
and insurance. Property owners.
particularly owners of real estate.
are not public benefactors to the
extent that they will maintain their
property at less than a profitable
margin to themselves. Merchants
are not going to sell goods for less
than a fair margin over the cost plus
the overhead charges of insurance,
rent, taxes, lights, etc. Conse-
quently if the voters, including the
poll tax payers, are extravagant in
their appropriations, and the tax
rate is thereby increased, who must
suffer? Is it the real estate owner
or the merchant, or the printer?
Not for a minute. The man who
owns tenements is going 70 save his
margin just the same by boosting
the rent, the merchant adds a frac-
ton to his costs, and continues his
margin just the same, or at least he
ought to if he is a man of COOL bus
mess judgment, and the printer
must raise his prices just a bit TO
Offset his increased taxes.
The fact is that no one is so much
interested to keep the taxes down
as this same poll tax payer, but too
rarely is this realized. 1t is the
same old story of the tariff, we pay
the bills but we don't know it, con-
sequently about $50 per cent of us
don't bother ourselves to know any
thing about the tariff. We pay the
local tax indirectly in the way Of
rents, increased price of commodi-
ties, but we rarely stop to think of
it. If the poll tax payers could rea-
lie how large share of their in
comes ultimately reaches the cof-
fers of the town and district treas
urers they would all be out to town
meeting, to district meeting and to
school meeting, and it is TO be
doubted if the debt of the town and
district would be as high as 1t is
today. If there has been any ex-
travagance the poll tax payers have
had to pay their share if 1T Lit

Farmers should Advertise

Last Saturday the Boston Trans
cropt had eight pages advertising real
estate and summer resorts of New
England. OF this amount about one
third of one column was concerning
Vermont property. This partially
shows why Vermont is not more
prominent in the summer business,
it will not advertise. Many farmers
desire to sell their farms but will
never make public announcement of
the fact. Some of them allow real
estate agents to take charge of the
sale of the property and pay them
from 500 up for doing the business.
The chances are that two or three
dollars spent in their home paper
advertising the farm would have
enabled them to make the sale with
out further expenses. No man knows
what or how well he can sell
piece of property until he has let
everybody know that he wants to
sell. Then he can find his best GUS
toner.
With delivery of farm products by
parcel post possible every farmer
who desires to sell his produce di-
rect to the consumer should adver-
tise what he has to offer and he
will be sure to find a customer.
The merchant advertises his wares
and finds customers among the
farmers. The farmer should adver-
tise and find customers among the
merchants. A persistent and intelli-
gent effort to advertise would con-
vince any farmer of the value of ad-
vertising.

they are bound to occur some time
as they do in the large cities of the
country, but thus far St. Johns
bury's automobile fire truck has
proved a very satisfactory fire fight
ing apparatus.

difference in the method of starting
for a fire last Wednesday morning
when an alarm was sounded for a
small fire under a veranda of a
house on Caledonia street. A call
fireman was standing within
seventy-five feet of the fire station
when the gong sounded and he
started on a run toward the station.
He was too late to catch the truck
however and it reached the fire over
badly quilted street in less than
three minutes.

do not like to see such misrepresen-

Should Buy Foreign Residences

Should Buy Foreign Residences
Sen. Bacon has introduced a bill
in congress providing for the lease
of residences for American diplo-
mats in foreign countries for a term
of years and the future purchase of
such residences. The bill would al
low $4,000 a year for the lease and
$4,000 for the furnishing of am
bassadorial residences in Great
Britain, Germany, France and Rus
STA and graded down to $4,000 a
year for lease and $1,000 for fur
nishing residences in such countries
as Norway, Greece, Montenegro,
Persia, Nicaragua, Costa RIGA, San
Salvador, Guatemala, Bolivia, Hon
duras, Paraguay, Uruguay and Nor
Deco. Altogether the bill calls for
an annual rental of 100000 and
$394,OOO for furnishing the thirty
one foreign residences.
This is a step in the right direc-
ton but it would seem more desir-
able to purchase the buildings at
the outset and not spend the mill
lions that would be necessary in
rental. 1t is time the American ma
ton furnished homes for it's diplo-
mats in foreign countries. Under
the present conditions, when the
government allows a salary that
will barely pay the renta. of the
house the American representative
is expected to occupy, poor men of
special fitness and training for dip
lomatic positions are prohibited
from accepting them on account of
the expense connected with it. The
result is that American representa-
tives abroad are not chosen with re-
gard to their qualifications but with
regard to the amount of wealth they
are willing to squander for the
honor of the place. President Will
son has been prevented from send
ing the men he wished to some of
the most important diplomatic posts
