The Monitor, as an early advocate of
cow testing, is interested in printing
testing records of associations in this
vicinity. Last week we printed a
number of records and this week some
interesting results of the Missisquoi
Valley association. This association
holds the record for the poorest COW
the Monitor has seen with an official
record. This COW lost for her owner
S13. 80 during the year. saying nothing
about the labor, housing. money in
vested in the animal herself, etc. In
other words she ate that much more
grain and fodder than she produced in
butter value. Again, for every dollar
invested the owner Of that COW got
back just So cents. If the testing
associations can only point out and
weed out such cows they will accom-
plish much in the way of advancing
agriculture in this county. The fact
that the average cow in the Missisquoi
association paid return of only $.0568
per day per COW is proof enough that
better COWS and better feeding must
be had before the dairy farmer can
become self-respecting business man.
Figure the average dairy as high as 20
cows and the proprietor will get a
return of but a little over 81 per day
from his dairy, which would all be
wiped away when insurance, interest on
Investment, hired help, etc., are
figured in. This is not right, is not
business and cannot endure in this day
and generation.

There is no question about the pres
ent inconvenience and hardships
most lines of business and every
household feel on account of the Euro
pean war. But these things will be
only temporary. Because Germany
makes our dye-stuffs. Austria our
sugar, other nations our drugs and
chemicals. etc., which are shut off
almost over night will only act as a
spur to the ingenious Yankee. Give
US few months to adjust ourselves to
these conditions and homemade dye
will be found, our cane sugar produc-
ton will be increased, substitute
drugs and chemicals found and busi-
ness will thrive as never before. With
foreign mills, factories, mines and
agricultural pursuits closed, every last
mite of American product will find a
ready market. Many millions of
dollars worth of imported products
must be manufactured here or sub.
stitute found. Now is the appointed
time to prepare for business.

The spirit that makes worthless boys
and girls crops out in St. Johnsbury,
where the academy trustees demand a
written apology from certain boys for
depredations committed last spring be-
fore they again enter school. The boys
refuse and the parents back them up in
it. That's the pinch. When parents
stand behind the youngster instead of
the school there is not only trouble in
the school but trouble with the young.
ster. These parents are said to have
started an agitation for high school
in st. Johnsbury because of this.
Pretty small business for folks old
enough and big enough to be parents
of academy students.

What's this! The Republican county
committee delegating to the county
convention on the 1912 governorship
vote after the mass meeting of Repub-
licans held at Orleans some time ago
voted, without a voice in opposition, to
delegate on the 1910 vote. Again, it
was the voice of the meeting that the
county committee should confer with
the other party committee and see
what might be done about getting
together on a county ticket. This. the
Monitor understands, has not been
done. Why the mass meeting if that
meetings. desires are not carried out?

So little is said about county politics
that the Monitor will appear lonesome
in mentioning the subject. The only
word thus far is said about the south
end senatorship. Some months ago
DIR. C. w. Dustan of Craftsbury
announced his candidacy and few
weeks ago H. T. Seaver of Barton
stated that he would be candidate
Both are Republicans and good men.
Craftsbury claims geographical rights.
The Monitor naturally hopes to see
Mr.. Seaver the choice of the conven-
ton and with Barton's six delegates
in the convention and the assurance
of considerable other support, it would
seem that Mr.. Seaver stood a fine
chance of being nominated.

The Advance says
1.-THE Orleans County Monitor, a
strong Republican paper. has shown
its fairness to the large body of Pro-
gressive subscribers, by giving them
committeeman. The solitariness of
such disposition among Vermont papers
makes it the more praiseworthy."
We appreciate the attitude of the
Monitor. Had there been the same
spirit of fairness at the national con-
vention two years ago, many things
might have been very different.
