HOW YOU MAY THROW
AWAY YOUR GLASSES

The statement is made that thousands wear
eyeglasses who do not really need them. II
you are ore of these unfortunates, then these
glasses may be running your eyes instead Of
helping them. Thousands who wear win
dows" may prove for themselves that they can
dispense with glasses If they will get the
following prescription filled at once; Go to
any active drug store and get bottle Of
DIPLOMA I'll two-ounce bottle with water
and drop in one DIPLOMA tablet. With this
harmless liquid solution battle the eyes two
to four times daily, and you are likely to be
astonished at the results right from the start.
Many who have been told that they have astig-
nlatism, eyestrain, cataract. sore eyelids. weak
eyes, conjunctivitis. and other eye disorders,
report wonderful benefits from the use of this
free prescription. Get this prescription filed
and use it: you may so strengthen your eyes
that glasses will not be necessary. Thousands
who are blind, or nearly So or who wear
glasses, would never have required them If
they had cared for their eyes in time. Save
your eyes before it is too latel Do not be-
come one of these victims of neglect. Eye
glasses are only like crutches, and every few
years they must be changed to fit the ever
increasing weakened condition, so better see
IL you can. like many others. get clear.
healthy. strong. magnetic eyes through the
here given.

Duties Larger Under New Tariff.

The figures for the month of March
showing the amount of business done
in the customs district of Vermont were
announced Thursday by Collector Charles
II. Darling. A remarkable fact about
them is that the duties collected in the
month are about $4,000 in excess of the
amount collected during the month of
March the preceding year, when the old
tariff was in effect The duties collected
last month amounted to .$60,994,9S as
against S50,96s.s2 in March, 1913. The
reason for the large collection seems to
be in the fact that the importations of
oats have greatly increased under the
revised tariff The old tariff, charged ID
cents per pushed, which was almost pro-
hibitive, and the revised tariff is cents
per bushel. About $4,000 of the duties
collected last month was on oats and
about $2l 900 was on hay
The value of importation in March
was S5l7, 423.73 as against 81 ,lS3,939 of
March 1913. The March exports We're
s752,054 as against $959,657 in March Of
1913.
An interesting comparison of the GUS
toms business of the quarter ending
March 81 in 1913 is as follows; Duties
collected, 1914, 1892 ,954.7o; in 1918,
SI70,579.32.
Value of imports, 1914, $3,32000s;
in 1913, Sl,7s3,67273 Value of exports,
1914 s2,523,67a; in 1913, s2,793,40s.

AMUSEMENT NOTES.
Tonight at the Barre Opera House "Ths
Red Rose"

Tonight at the opera house that most
famous of musical comedies, "The Red
Pose" with many of the original New
York company, viii be the attraction of
this theatre. 1t is many long day
since such a delightful play has come to
town and the advance interest in the en-
gagement has been remarkable. Of
course the charming music provided by
Robert Hood Bowers is a strong factor
in the remarkable success OF "The Red
Rose" but fortunately Mr.. Bowers
musical gems adorn a book that is more
than ordinarily interesting. Harry b.
and Robert B. Smith have devised many
novel and immensely funny situations,
and the story engages the attention
from the rise of the first curtain to the
fall of the last. Mr.. John c. Fisher has
furnished a thoroughly artistic and elab-
crate production and the costumes re-
Gently imported from Paris are the
latest ideas from Rue de la Paix. The
cast includes Lottie Kendall, Charlotte
Gale, Sylvia Jason, Claudia Rogers, All
Rauh, Wayne Num-, H. A. Barrows.
George Williams, Earl McHaffie, Henri
La Batiste and Maurice Darcy. There
is, of course, chorus of striking beauty
and to add to the Joy of the occasion.
Owing to the very elaborate nature OF
the production it should be observed
that the curtain will rise promptly on
time.-Adv.

One-half Of the feed cost the first veal
and one third for the full two years i:
for whole and skim milk.
BY the far most expensive period in
the life of the calf is the first foul
weeks, the cost being nearly double that
for any other four-week period This
high cost is occasioned by its being de.
pendent almost entirely upon the whole
milk.
The man labor. required in raising a
heifer is about 40 hours during the first
year and 20 hours the second year. The
total cost of man and horse labor for
the two years is close TO IS. The ma.
nure produced during the two years has
been valued at S.; consequently, the
cost of labor is practically offset by the
value of the manure.
The item "other costs" consists of ex.
penses usually overlooked in estimating
costs. These are interest, charge for the
use of building and equipment, expense
for bedding miscellaneous expenses, a
share of the general expenses for the en-
tire farm business, and charge to cover
losses by death and discarding, The
total for these forms nearly one-ffth of
the total cost of the two-year-old
heifer.
The foregoing figures show that it
costs more to raise calves to maturity
than is commonly supposed, and they
support the advice which the depart.
ment is continually trying to impress
upon dairy farmers, that it does not
pay to raise any but the best heifers.
Raising scrub heifers and selling them
at S25 to $40 apiece, as many do, is UNI
profitable except on cheap land or under
other very favorable conditions But it
does pay to raise the best heifers, for in
good dairy sections well-bred haifers are
worth considerably more than $50 when
two years of age. Furthermore, dairy
farmers as rule are obliged to raise
their own stock, as it is difficult to buy
productive cows at reasonable price.
In some sections of the west where al
falfa is worth only "a or S. a ton, or in
the southwest where pastures furnish
feed the greater part OF the year this
cost may be greatly reduced. Even
where it costs $50 to raise heifer. two
thirds of this amount is charged for
feeds at market prices, large part of
which can be grown on the farm at a
profit. Thus by raising the heifers the
dairy farmer finds home market for
feeds grown on the farm at remunerative
prices, and at the same time aids in
maintaining the fertility of the farm.

MAY MUSICAL FESTIVAL.
Details of the Program of the Montpelier
Choral Society.

Director Coffin has arranged the inn
portant parts of the general program
for the three concerts for the May fes-
tival, and has given careful grouping
of the attractions with view to max
ing each concert and matinee complete
entertainment in itself
On the first night, part one will con-
sist of chorus in Carnival Festival" by
Jacobowski, followed by male chorus in
"Hynn to the Madonna" by Kremsen,
and the first appearance of Mrs. Sun
delius in solo numbers. Mrs. Babcock
and Messrs. Rasely and Cartwright will
also render selections. In part two will
be given that delightful choral number
of Mendelssohn's, "Walpurgis Night" "
which never fails to win the apprecia-
ton of the audience, introducing ladies',
mems, and mixed choruses with Mrs.
Babeock, Messrs. Cartwright, Rasely and
Nye, as soiosts.
The matinee win have the ever en-
ioyable orchestral numbers by the Bos-
ton opera house orchestra of six pieces,
augmented by five of the prominent To-
cal men, the orchestral selections being
worth the price OF admission alone. The
vocalists assisting will be Mrs. Babcock,
Messrs. Rasely and Nye. This will be
the last concert in which Mrs. Babcoek
and Mr.. Rasely will appear and will be
the only concert in which Mr.. Nye,
basso, will be heard in his admirable solo
numbers.
The last night viii open with ladies'
chorus, Butterflies" than which no more
attractive and pleasing number has been
given by this excellent ladies' chorus.
No less enjoyable will be the mems ever
popular selection, "Swanee River" with
operate arias will appear Mr.. Hackett
for the first time, as well as Mrs. Sun
delius and Mr.. Cartwright
An especial treat is to be furnished in
the duet of Mrs. Sundelius and Mr.. Hac-
kett, taken from Aida" both OF which
artists are among the foremost in the
rendition of operate music. The only
appearance Of Nine. Jeanne Geryille
Reache, eontralto, will occur on the last
night in solo numbers embracing two
of her great arias. As fitting climax
to the two days entertainment will
come the grand finale, act two, of Verdi's
"Aida," which viii introduce ladies' cho-
rus, mems chorus, mixed chorus, special
mems chorus, with the solo parts taken
by the quintet, Nine. Reache, Mrs. Sun
delius, Messrs. Hackett, Cartwright and
Nye, this grand ensemble OF chorus and
soloists in unison literally sweeping all
before it.
A perusal of the above will demon
strate that no concert or part has been
neglected and that all have been consid-
cred with a view to giving the best Sc
ries Of entertainments yet produced un-
der the auspices of the society.
Much interest is being manifested in
the festival from outside sources and
plans are now being made to run spe-
cial train from Burlington and st. Al
bans to accommodate the large number
who are to be present. Special rates
will also apply to points between Mont
pelier and South Royalton and Williams
town for both days.
