Vermonters in War Zone.

Mrs. VIM. Spring. formerly Miss
Blanche Powell, daughter Of Henry
Powell of Burlington and niece of DR..
Rowell of Orleans is now and has
been in the war zone of Europe since
the first rumors of war. Miss Powell
married Dr. VIM. Spring and they
have lived for number of years in
Dresden, Germany The doctor, a
dentist, became much attached to the
late Archduke Ferdinand, of Austria,
who with his wife was assassinated in
Servia, an event which finally culmin-
ated in the present terrible European
war. Since the assassination of the
archduke and his wife the orphaned
children Of this royal couple have been
much in the care of Dr.. and Mrs.
Spring of Dresden The above facts
bring the great war a little nearer
home, and show how small world we
really live in after all.

BOAT WITH NOVEL SYSTEM
OF GLIDING PLANES.

An invention that may bring
about a revolution in hydroplane
construction is a combined motor
boat and glider that has recently
been patented after having been
subjected to preliminary trials.
When run at high speed, the hull
of this craft lifts out of the water
and is supported by system OF
water planes that act on the wa
ter in the same fashion that the
wings Of an aeroplane act on the
air, while at low speed or with
the craft at rest, the planes are
submerged and buoyancy is sup
piled by the hull as in an ordinary
boat. Both the flying boat and
the ordinary hydroplane have
hulls so shaped that they drive
up out Of the water and skim the
surface when driven at high
speed, but a craft that glides on
planes placed under and at the
sides of the hull is something de-
cidedly new.

PRUNES AND COOPERATION

Many people remember when
the prune wa one of the stock
subjects Of the jokesmiths. 1t
was a synonym for cheapness.
"You are full Of prunes' was
equivalent to saying you are full
of nothing The prune was the
cheapest Of all fruits and the
least esteemed. Today the prune
has ceased to be a butt of jokes.
1t is highly esteemed fruit and
it has long since ceased to be a
cheap fruit.
Cooperation did it. The prune
growers used to raise prunes just
as our farmers raise all their
products, hit or miss, without re-
gard to what the maket might de-
mand. They put their prunes on
the market, each prune grower for
himself and the devil take the
hindmost, just as our farmers
market their products. They did
not select and grade and pack
them scientifically, for the reason
that no one prune grower had
enough prunes to pustify the ex-
pense of skilled labor. They COM
peted with each other and left
the setting Of price to distant
commission merchant, just as our
farmers do. and the result was
inevitable. The prune grower
did not get his share of the price
the consumer paid, which was
high considering quality and the
uncertainty Of supply.
Then the prune growers organ
lied and co-operated in growing,
in preparing the product for the
market and in controlling the
srpply. They were able to raise
the price Of prunes by raising the
quality and by controlling the
output they were able to secure
their share of the price the con-
sumner paid. They eliminated the
economic waste, and both pro-
Queer and consumer got the ben
eft. Prune growing is now a
profitable Observation-Disclosures
Enterprise.
