Now that st. Johnsbury has been
chosen as the place for holding the
next annual convention of the Yer
mont State Teachers Association
every citizen should begin to study
how he or she can make the enter
tainment of the guests so pleasant
that other organizations will want
to come here. 1t is the largest or
ganization the town has ever at
tempted to entertain and it will be
we'll worth all it costs to make it a

Vermont newspaper men learn
with pleasure of the return of A. F.
Stone, formerly editor of The Gale
DOMAIN, to editorial work as editor
of the new progressive paper, The
Advance His courtesy and gentle
manly qualities will bring to that
paper a good standing that few edi-
tors could. The new paper comes to
fill a political demand and has no
separate news field to fill. 1t may
be a marked success but political
organs have not proven so in the
past. If it is a real financial sue
cess it will be distinctly a progress

Cooperation The Next Step

A bulletin recently issued by the
secretary of agriculture shows that
while the amount of crops produced
during 1913 was not so large as in
1912 the value of farm crops is the
largest in the history of the country
and says that an increase in the pro-
ductiOn of agricultural products does
not insure a larger cash return for
the farmer or a reduction in prices
TO the consumer. The bulletin says:
The high prices paid by consumers,
ranging from five TO nearly 500 per
cent in some cases more than the far
mer receives, indicate that there is

A statement that the butter con-
sumed in New York City per year
would make 157 trains of forty cars
each, raised in our minds the ques-
ton how many carloads would the
butter produced in Caledonia County
in a year make There are 16,301
mich COWS in the county. Allowing
that they produce 200 pounds Of but
ter each per year they would make
3,26O,2OC pounds of butter. AL
lowing $4,000 pounds to a car (the
amount figured in the New York
statement) it would take 1876 cars.
Figuring the average price of the
butter at thirty cents per pound eve
think it would be more) and the val
ue of the annual output of butter
would be $97S,O6O. Here is a nice
volume of business on which a CO.
operative plan could be started.

HUM8uES were invented BY the
M Egyptians many thousands of
years ago and consist of ex-
human beings in a shocking state OF
preservation.
When the early Egyptian Of good
family expired his remains were con-
sidered too valuable to lose. He was
accordingly turned over to the priests,
who followed him out neatly, stuffed
him with bitumen and old rags and
then wrapped him in several miles of
fine cloth saturated with preservatives.
When this was done he was placed in
a neat mummy case with a decorated
lid and the case was put in a stone
sarcophagus. If the deceased was very
prominent a pyramid was then built
over him.
Iummifying was a long and eIabcr-
ate process and very comforting TO
the relatives, because they could be
perfectly sure that the late departed
would not wake up after being en-
tOmbed and complain about the hasti-
ness Of the proceedings
After the mummy had been filed
away in the tomb Of its fathers. it lay
without change for dozens Of cen
turtles while empires persisted, cities
disappeared and the restless sand OF
the desert marched in serried hills
across the land.
The rude vandaIs Of a later civiliza-
ton with picks and shOvels uncovered
the tomb, hauled out the mummy and
its relatives. piled them along a rail-
road track like cordwoOd and used
them to stoke the engines Of the con-
structiOn trains.
This teaches US the folly Of trying
to preserve a dear. departed relative
beyond the time when our descend
ants will be able to stand around and
defend the remains with a gun. The
Egyptians were well meaning but
thew overdid the thing. It is no favor
to a man to preserve him so well that
