Cutting State Expenses.
(Rutland Herald.)

It is absolutely true, as Republican
orators said during the recent cam
paign, that it le9itimately costs more
to run Vermont today than it did in
1870 or even in 1901. But it is further
true that it should not cost so very
much more than it costs to run pri-
vate business of the same magnitude
The Herald would respectfully Iii
rect the attention Of the legislators
elect to the following details from the
auditor 5 report, which suggest points
where money might be saved:
Detective expense for 1914, $50, s75.-
90. This amount is mere reckless
folly. It's future expenditure should
be limited by law, whether the office
of attorney general is abolished or
not.
County courts, $77,15529. Some
thing wrong with a court system that
continues to increase the number of
courts, justices and court officers
while the private cost of obtaining JUS
tice through litigation increases ac-
lcordingly.

WHAT THE FOOT AND
MOUTH DISEASE is

The foot and mouth disease is an
excessively contagious specific fe-
yer which attacks the mouth, feet
and udder of Illuminating animals
Cattle, goats, sheep, deer) and
swine, and very rarely may be COM
municated to horses. Dairy cows
only, however, are directly con-
cerned at present.
Although seldom fatal, it is more
dreaded than any other disease
which now affects livestock. It
causes rapid and extreme loss of
flesh and the cessation of the milk
supply, usually running its course
in 10 to 20 days and entaihng
financial loss of from $40 to S25
when the affected animal survives.
The first symptom is SOLDERING
or salvation, caused by bisters in
side the mouth. Lameness follows
Immediately, caused when spittle
drops to the hoofs and affects
these extremities.
Children are likely to contract
| the disease from drinking warm,
milk from infected animals. It af
fects their stomachs and intestines,
| often with serious results.
T. L. Davis, Vermont live stock
commissioner, has notified all deal
| ers in live stock that a quarantine
has been established against the
| states of Massachusetts and Penn
| sylvania because of foot and mouth
| disease. He has recalled permits
for the importation of cattle from
these states. He says that every
| effort is being made to keep Yer
mont free from the disease and so
far no evidence of it appears in
this state

GROWTH OF EQUAL SUFFRAGE.


State recognition of the right of
women to the ballot spreads gradually
and normally With the, addition of
Montana and Nevada, there are now
eleven states in which women possess
suffrage on equal terms with men at
all elections The Legislature OF the
territory of Alaska adopted fun woman
Suffrage in 1913 without opposition,
and Illinois should also be included,
since It's. legislature has adopted woman
suffrage in the election of al officers
not specifically named in the state
constitution. Twelve states and the
territory Of Alaska are now committed
to equal suffrage.
1t may be Of interest to recall the
order in which the states have taken
favorable action on this great issue.
The first was Wyoming, in 1869, while
still a territory. Then followed Colo
pado in 1898; Utah in 1896, and Idaho
| i'm the same year; Washington, in 1910;
| california. Arizona, Kansas and Ore
| 2on, in 1912. Alaska followed in 1913,
| and in May of that year the Illinois
| Legislature. by largo majoritics in both
houses and senate, passed a bin which
was signed by the governor on July
| 20, giving women the right TO vote
for all statutory officials, which in
cludes presidential electors, and city,
town, village and county officials, ex-
lccpt police magistrates. 1t does not
| give them the right to vote for gov
crnor and other state. officers, mem
bers of the legislature, members of Con
gress, United States senators, and
county and district judges. For full
suffrage in Illinois constitutional
amendment is necessary.
This is impressive progress, and
while it may not have met the hopes
of those who have been active in the
cause of woman suffrage, it is perhaps
u.s. well that SO radical a change should
come about slowly, since it has given
an opportunity for the most Jealous
land thorough observation of It's eff
fccts. 1t is significant that no general
or serious complaint comes from any
state where equal suffrage is in opera
ton, and it is particularly noticeable
that in the late election the women
have appeared to take an equal in
terest with the men, and in not a few
states have obviously exerted power
full influence in behalf of order and
good government. 1t is a safe predic
ton that, with the object lessons OF
twelve states before them, it will not
be many more years before the more
conservative Eastern states will have
fallen into line.

Governor Fletcher is fortunate in
commanding for the state 5 service on
the board of education the talents of
one of the most eminent Vermonters,
James Hartness of Springfield. Mr..
Hartness has been SO engrossed with
his large business interests and his
scientific studies that ne has hereto
fore devoted but little attention to
public affairs. 1t is encouraging to see
men of his calibre give of their abili-
ties for the public good. A man who
has been recognized by election to the
presidency of the American Society OF

tional methods.

NEW CONCENTRATION OF CIDER.
Freezing and Centrifugal Method to
Be Tried by Government.

The specialists Of the fruit and vege-
table utilization laboratory of the Depart
ment of Agriculture have completed ar
J angements for a commercial test of the
recently discovered method of concentrat-
ing apple cider by freezing and centrifugal
methods As a result cider mill in the
Hood River Valley, Ore, will this fall
undertake to manufacture and test on the
retail market 900 gallons of concentrat-
ed cider, which viii represent 1000 of
ordinary apple cider with only the water
removed.
The new method, it is believed, makes
possible the concentrating of cider in such
way that il viii keep better than raw
cider and also he so reduced in bulk that
it can be shipped profftahy long distances
from the apple-growing regions. The old
attempts to concentrate cider by boiling
have been failures because heat destroys
the delicate flavor OF cider Under the
new method nothing is taken from the
cider but the water, and the resultant
product is thick liquid which contains
all the apple-iuice products and which can
he restored to excellent sweet cider by the
simple addition of four parts of water.
The shippers and consumers, therefore,
avoid paying freight on the water in ordi-
nary cider In addition. the product when
properly barreled, because of its higher
amount Of sugar. keeps better than raw
cider, which quickly turns to vinegar.
The process as described by the depart
ment's specialists consists of freezing ordi
nary cider solid The cider ice is then
crushed and put into centrifugal machines
such as are used in making cane sugar
When the cider ice Is whirled rapidly the
concentrated Juice Is thrown off and col
lected The water remains in the machin,
as ice.

The Reformer has made remarks pre-
viously as to the proper sphere of
and in this connection
il notes, but without jollification, that
two representatives. of the fourth es-
tate were among those who also ran in
the recent election. l.. II. Lewis of
the Hyde Park News and Citizen was
on the Republican ticket for the posi-
ton of judge of probate, but was elect
ed to stay at home. Harry Parker,
owner Of the Bradford Opinion many
years, was drafted at the eleventh hour
as the Republican candidate for town
representative. He made a good show
ing, but was beaten by a coalition Of
Democrats and Progressives. Parker
takes his defeat with good spirit and
SAYS that he is so delighted with the
success Of the Republicans throughout
the state and nation in general that
the result more than compensates for
the personal defeat which was his por-
ton
