ELOBORATE PREPARATIONS
FOR TENNIS MATCH

New York, June 2O.--With the
Davis Cup international tennis
schedule completed both the Nation
al Association and the clubs allotted
preliminary and challen.e rounds
are making elaborate preparations
for handling the matches and the
thousands of spectators expected to
witness the play. If the English
and Alstralasian teams reach the
final round, as is generally predicted,
there will be almost as much interest
in the match between these two ma
tions to be played at the LongWood
Club on Aug. 6, Z and s, as in the
challenge round at Forest HIS,
Long Island, the following week
With this in view the Roston CluD
is preparing to seat close to SIX thou-
sand spectators and the West Slde
Club will almost double these figures
for the series between the United
States team and the challcngers
which will decide the 1914 winners
of the trophy cmblematic OF the
worlds team tennis championship.
Interest in the International play
will not cease with the Davis Cup
matches, however, for the members
of the English, AustralaSlan and the
German teams, if thel after come to
! America at all, will all play in the
national championship tournament
, at Newport during the week of Aug.
24-29. With Brooks, Wilding,
Doust, Dunlop, Parke, Lowe, Barrett,
Dixon and other foreign stars COM
netting in the singles against NC
Loughlin, Williams, Wallace, john
son. Touchard, William Johnston,
Clothicr, pell and other leading
American players who will enter at
/ Newport, the national championship
tournament is certain to attract q
record assembly to the Casino courts.
That this will be the case IS clear
ly indicated by the demand for res
ervations even at this early date.
DESPITE the fact that the seating ca
pacity at the Newport courts will be
greatly increased it Is apparent that
the demand for tickets will exceed
the supply. The boxes surrounding
the grand stand court were com
pletely sold out month ago and ad-
ditional stands are being built to
provide for the thousands who are
expected to witness the all-star
matches to be played on this court.
| Additional rows of temporary
seats will be placed in front of the
grand stand and two new stands will
be erected, one at each end of the
championship playing turf. The east
stand will also be widened by the
addition of rows of seats at top and
bottom and when the alterations are
completed it is expected that more
than 5000 spectators can be accom-
modated around the star court of
the Casino grounds During the
early rounds many Of the other
courts will be occupied by prominent
American and foreign players and it
is not unlikely that should the draw
distribute the leading players evenly,
an attendance fully equal to that at
the Davis Cup challenge round will
J be present on certain days.
While rapid progress is being made
in the matter of accommodating
spectators at these matches, the same
cannot be said of the assembling of
the players who will form the teams
of the leading entrants, considered
as nations. Australasia is to date
the only competitor with its team
formed and practicing as a whole,

EDUCATIONAL DUTTER SCORING

Two of the series of the educational
butter scorings under the direction of the
extension service of the University of
Vermont and State Agricultural College
have been held. At the first January q,
1914, q samples We're received and scored
and on April %, 1914, there were 80 sam
pies. The sender of the sample was In
each case furnished with a statement of
his score and the reasons for failure to
score perfect in any respect, and peril
nent suggestions as to possible improve
ment. He also received statement Of
the water and salt contents of his own
butter and summary of all scores omit
ting names.
The butter is sold nftcr being scored
and the proceeds less the cost of carriage
charges returned to the owner.
These butter scorings have proved very
popular and Instructive and justify the
reputation which Vermont holds as
butter producing State. Their continu-
ance Will doubtless help to raise the
standard.
Butter for the third scoring should be
sent to the extension service, College Of
Agriculture, University of Vermont, Nor
rill Hall. Burlington, VT, so that 1t VIII
arrive not later than August 3, 1914,
and should be accompanied by a report
on methods Of handling the cream ana
butter. Blanks and directions for ship
ping will be furnished free upon applcd-
ton.

WHERE STABILITY MEANS BUsI-
NESS.

F'rom the Colorado Springs Gazette)
The lumber industry Of the Philippines,
like everything else in the Islands. has
been retarded by uncertainty as to the
future of the government. In this busl-
ness, as in mining and various other in
rustries there are excellent opportunities
with large profits almost assured But
the amount of capital required for build
ing up new industry so far from home,
and developing the export trade which
is essential to success is necessarily
large.
1t is not surprising that American capt.
talists have been unwilling to venture
on n large scale so long as our govern
ment continues to encourage the hone
Of the Felipnos for independence-whch

B. j. ANDREWS,
SUPERINTENDENT
SUPERINTENDENT BROWN.


The new superintendent, DR.. Thomas
stephen Brown, was born in Dcerfeld,
~ H., May 80, 1878. the son of Joseph
True and Mary Elizabeth Brown. He
was educated at Kimball Union Acad
envy at Meriden, N. H., at Dartmouth
College, and at the University of Yer
mont, graduating from the latter with
the degree of NJ. d. in 1904. In 1908
he married Jessie Lerna Baldwin of
Shoreham. They have two children,
Mary Elizabeth and Madison Baldwin.
He was instructor in anatomy at the
University of Vermont from 1904 to
May, 1905. He practiced medicine at
Mt Holly from May. 1905. to January,
1907 He was again instructor in an
atomy at the University of Vermont

1909 to 1911. He has been Thaycr
professor of anatomy since June. 1911.
He is member of the Burlington and
Chittenden Clinical society and the
American Medical association.
In Dr. Brown, who takes the com
plete superntendency of the hospital.
including both the business manage
ment and medical direction, the di-
rectors feel they have secured the
services of a man who by intimate
knowledge of the local field. expcr-
fence with the hospital, close affilia-
ton with the medical profession as
well as native ability and tempera-
ment Is well qualified to carry on to
still larger proportions the work al
ready so auspiciously begun.
DR.. Browns term of service as SUI
perintendcnt will begin in September
and during a portion of the time in
tervcning he will spend number of
weeks in the New York and Boston
hospitals, studying the --latest develop
ments and improvements, with special
reference to hospital administration.
Or. Brown believes there is n great
field in hospital development dcsr-
Ing to make this his lfe's work, and
ne viii enter upon his career in this
capacity with the assurance of the
hearty cooperation of the medical
profession in this city and vicinity
without single exception, as well as
with the certainty of abundant sup
port in all directions
