The LamOilIe County Republic
can Convention

The Republican county convention at
Hyde Park last Fridaysput in the field a
strong ticket as it always does-one
that will command the hearty support
of the party.
For some time it has been conceded
that the Senatorship should 60 to Belvi-
dere and there was no opposition to the
nomination of Jasper o. Thomas of that
town for the position. Mr.. Thomas is a
young man OF sterling integrity and good
business ability. He has had experience
10 the House and he will be found among
the substantial, level headed men in the
Senate.
The promotion of Judge Leach to the
First Assistant Judgship is well-estab-
lished custom-that of keeping an expe-
rienced man on the bench. For his asso-
ciate, that hustling and progressive man,
Heber A. Jackson Of Watervile will be
found to be the right man in the right
place"
In giving Sheriff Town a denomination
was simply doing what the people de-
manded. Mr.. Town has served the
county well, gives close attention to his
duties and is a model officer.
The unprecedented movement of nom
mating a States Attorney for fourth
term is conclusive evidence that M. P.
Maurice is a good official in that capac-
ity. He gives close and careful attention
to all the duties of the office and "lets no
guilty man escape"
The honor OF High Bailiff went to He.
Parker of Johnson, OF whom it can be
truthfully said that if called upon will
perform his duties to the satisfaction of
the commonwealth.
The only Office in which there was a
contest was that of Probate Judge. This
was an unusual event, for during the last
twenty.three years there has been but
one name mentioned, and most of thar
time by all parties, that of the late Edwin
c. White. Judge White having died made
vacancy which must be fileCfa and there
fore there were two aspirants The one
who succeeded in winning the nomina.
ton promises, ii elected, to give the office
close attention and trusts that with the
aid OF the faithful and competent Regis
ter, Mrs. White, the duties of the office
will be performed to the satisfaction of
all interested.

Prouty best to use the soft pedal on the
Lorimer matter. 1t will yield little CAPT
tai against Dillingham;, whose action, it
is pretty well understood, ca me as the re-
suit OF firm conviction, based on all the
evidence in the case, which came before
him as a member of the investigating
committee. 1t may be, of course, that
the senator formed an erroneo Gus conclu-
sion, but it was an honest one, and
stands especially to his credit inasmuch
as it ran counter to an inflamed public
sentiment, so violent as to threaten the
political future of all who stood ID oppo-
sition We have reasons, to us sufficient,
for believing that Vermont would best
promote her interests by sending Charles
A. Prouty to the Senate this year. but
one of them is not that William p. Dill.
lngham, firm in the belief that he was
acting from a sense of right, with even
the threat of his political extinction to
move him the other way, dared to follow
his Judgment and his conscience in the
Lorimer case.

MOUNT WAsHINGToN-There will be
general approval of the act of the gov
eminent in acquiring possession of Mount
Washington, the principal and most
famous peak of the Presidential Range in
the White Mountains of New Hampshire.
BY this proceeding 80, 900 acres are added
to the 1890 already owned in that
vicinity by the United States, and it is
the intention to secure enough of the
White Mountain region to raise the
Eastern Forest Reserve in that quarter
to 100000 acres. This will mean not
only the perpetual safeguarding of the
scenic beauties of district which lumber
ing and other operations were fast de-
spelling, but protection of watersheds
which are the sources of some of the
most important streams in New England.
Along these streams are located mill
towns the prosperity of which depends
on the water supply. DenuJing Mount
Washington and other peaks of trees has
affected seriously the flow of water. The
hillsides in time will again be clothed in
forests, and government ownership will
guarantee perpetual care. The nation
and the states can make no better in
vestment than that represented bE the
maintenance of forest reserves, and the
Adirondacks and the White Mountains
furnish conspicuous testimony on that

A Letter to the Level Headed
Farmers and Business Men
of LamOille County.

Mr.. Farmer: Do you know that
the most enterprising farmers in
the country now are paying their
bills by check?
When you give a man a check
to settle for any particular pur-
chase or to settle any debt, he
has to endorse that check before
he can get the money out of the
bank. The check is charged to
your account at the bank and
sent to you, SO that you always
have in your possession a vouch-.
er or receipt showing the pay
ment.
If other bright and progressive
farmers pay their bills by check,
why shouldn't you? The bank
furnishes you, free, the blank
checks, deposit slips, etc, and
extends to you every courtesy
consistent with safe banking.
The thrifty farmer today pays
cash for what he buys. He does
not run into debt at the stores
the shops or the mills. If for a
little while he is short of money,
he should 60 to his bank and
borrow, then he knows that
what he owes he owes exclusively
to his bank.
One cannot begin too quickly
to get out of the old ruts. What
is said above applies not only to
thefariner, but to the blacksmith,
the wheelwright, the harness
maker, the shoemaker and all
othes lines of business as we'll.
The old Lamoille County Ma
tional Bank at Hyde Park COM
menced its sixtieth year of bust
nessMay 21, 1914. tits staunch,
relia BILE, accommodating and for
more than twenty-five years has
never said mo" to any customer
asking for accommodation and
awful paper. This bank
will always take care of your re-
quirements.
You can open two accounts
with this bank, one which draws
interest and another-a small ac-
count-which draws no interest
and is known as a Checking
account" A transfer can be made
from one OF these accounts to the
other at any time, as may suit
the convenience and necessity of
your business.
Call at the bank and Cashier
Noyes will explain to you all
about the way to open and keep
a checking account, and will give
you the necessary blank checks,
deposit slips, etc, to enable you
20 commence business.

HOW CHILDREN GROW

Children grow by nourishment-not
overloaded stomachs or rich foods but
qualities that are readily converted into
DEMONSTRATING blood; too often their
digestive powers cannot procure these
qualities from ordinary foods which results
in weakness, dullness and sickness.
If your children are under-size, under
weight, catch cold easily, are languid,
backward. pale or frail. give them Scott's
Emulsion whichis pure medicinal nourish-
ment. 1t sharpens the appetite, builds
healthy flesh, firm muscles and active
brains. SCOTS is growing food for
children. Refuse alcoholic substitutes.

The Republican State Convention at

We do not believe in the effort to secure

this subject. 1t is a question on which
each state should decide for itself and
two-thirds of the country have no right
to decide for the other third in such a

to vote. Let the party live up to the

BOSTON MAN SPOKE
 ABOUT MILK DISTRIBUTING
Advised Norwich Business Men ts
 Hear pr. North's Lecture.

In the rooms of the Norwich Bus mess Mems association on Wednesday evening, James M. Cutler of Boston and John c. Orcutt, who is secretary of the agricultural committee of sshe Boston Chamber of Commerce, spoke to about a dozen business men of the city, including Mayor Murphy. Presi- dent Herbert R. Branche of the Bus mess Mems association, Vice Presi- dent Frank J. King of the Board of Trade, and President Robert w. Per- kins of the Shore Line Electric Rail- way company
 The two visitors presented the mat ter of the advisability of establishing a milk distributing station for the city delivery of milk and advised that Dr. J. c. North of New York who is to mer home today be brought here for a conference on Friday and that later he be secured to give his illustrated lecture showing what an immense ad vantage to both producers and con sumers had resulted from such a sta tion established at Homer. N. Y.
 MT Cutler spoke first and called at tention to comparison made by Pres ident Elliott of the New Haven road between the Danish and the Connecti- cut farms. President Elliott said that for each person Connecticut produces 8 bushels of cereal, 4 gallons of milk 3 pounds of butter and minute frac- ton of a pound of cheese. In Den mark for each person the product is 3S bushels of cereal, 360 gallons of milk. s1 pounds of butter, and IS pounds of cheese. Connecticut pro- duces about one-fourth of what her population consumes while Denmark not only feeds herself but has large quantities to export. These results in Denmark are brougth about by CO., operation, and if they succeed so well in Denmark, they can succeed here
 MT. Cutler said that the Boston Chamber of Commerce was taking this matter up because it wants to get the brains of New England back of this agricultural problem and put New England agriculture back where it ought to be.
 He argued that dairying was at the foundation of profitable farming and that we could double the use of milk, if certain things were done and that we could produce three times the amount of milk as we so today, re- ducing overhead charges and when that is done putting money in the farmers pocket.
