currency law revision. Not since
special laws were passed in civil
war times had congress essayed
such task. The establishment
of the federal reserve system
was a labor of construction, as
time is beginning to show. Con,
gress then took up the subjects
of the trusts. The original pro.
gram simmered down to three
bills-the Clayton anti trust

bill and the railway commission
bill. The first two have been
approved, and have met with
general acceptance, although
they have yet to be tested. The

allied topics. The construction
of government railway in Alas.

Cow Testing Association.

County Agent s. N. Stimson re-
turned from Peacham last week after
effecting the organization of a COW
testing association of which the Of
ficers are: President H. Farrow;
vice-president, W. b. Martin; secre-
tary and treasurer, w. G. Darling.
These with F. A. Goss and George
Esden constitute the board of direc-
tors. There are % members in the
association owning 457 cows. All of
the members of the association re-
side in Peacham except one who lives
in Danville. This is the sixth COW
testing association organized under
the auspices of the Caledonia County
Farmers Association.
In addition to the work connected
with interesting people in the cow
testing association, Mr.. Stimson has
been continuing his demonstration
work in trimming orchards. The
association has purchased a spray
ing outfit which the agent will use
to spray the orchards recently trim
med and others. Members desiring
TO have their orchards sprayed should
promptly notify Mr. Stimson as OPP
erations will commence as soon as
the roads are passable. The actual
cost of material and labor is charged
to the members but no charge is made
for the agents time. Mr.. Stimson
prunes two orchards in Barnet this
week. Two men have now been as
sisting Mr.. Stimson on orchard prun-
ing for about six weeks. Members
who wish to have their orchards
pruned should not delay in COM
municating with Mr.. Stimson.
Some 48 members have been taken
-I~Is
in January giving list of the mem
bers.
AS those who purhased chemicals
through the association are under
obligations to join, it being condi-
ton under which the chemicals were
ordered, it may be expected that dur
ing the coming month there will be
an increase of Is or 80 to the pres
ent membership.

RAsE RALL sATuRDAY
Academy Boys To Play Iittleton
High


The base ball season will be in
augurated next Saturday afternoon,
when Littleton High opens the 1914
Academy schedule. Both teams are
more or less unknown quantities, es-
pecially the local boys, but there has
been a large squad practicing daily,
since the campus has been dry, and
good material is on hand. With but
one veteran on the team, cOmpeti-
ton for places is unusually keen,
and a number of good fielding players
have been uncovered, and several
good throwing arms found. The
lineup is still problematical for the
first game and the initial lineup
may not be permanent. The sched-
ule:
April Littleton at St. Johns
bury.
May 2-Woodsville at St. Johns
bury.
May -Spaulding at Barre.
May 9-Barre A. G. at Barre.
May 16-Spaulding at st. Johns
bury.
May Newport at St. Johns
bury.
May 3O-Lancaster at ST. Johns
bury.
June 3-Lyndon Institute at Lyn-
don.
June 6-Woodsville at Woodsville.
June 11-Lyndon Institute at st.
Johnsbury.
June 13-Newport at Newport.
The Academy track meet will be
held May 8. On account of the de-
sire of the boys last year to enter too
many events, the number this year
has been reduced to eight, four track
and four field events. The gradUa-
ton of large number of point-win-
ners of last year offers a splendid OPP
portunlty to novices to win places
this spring.

FINAL WRESTLING MATCH
Sherb To Meet Fritz Hanson At The
Colonial Thursday Night


In what will probably be the last
wrestling match of the season, Sherb
meets Fritz Hanson, holder of the
worlds welter-weight championship
belt, at the Colonial, April 23rd
Hanson has been wrestling for a
number of years, and has been a ton
notch performer continuously since
he fought his way through a three
days tournament to the possession of
the Lord Lonsdale welter-weight
trophy. Sherb's rather unfortunate
matches here have been counter
balanced by successful ones abroad,
and he is due to give the fans the
best sport obtainable. He has Just
returned from a trip into New Bruins
wick, where he has been handling
several young wrestlers for a few
weeks, and Easter Monday he met
Dan Macdonald, Canadian champion,
and worlds middle-weight belt hold
er, in a match for the worlds title.
The first fall went to Sherb after an
hour and % minutes of hard wrestl-
ing. Both men were apparently ex-
hausted, but after the rest they came
back, and Sherb had bar lock on
Macdonald, and was close to gaining
a fall, when Macdonald tapped Sherb
on the back, who thinking it was the
referee arose, and Macdonald secur-
ed toe hold that gave him the fall,
after 20 minutes. The third fall
went to the Canadian in binutes
with another toe hold.
For the Hanson-Sherb bout. Joe
Kilboury, referee-extraordinar will
of6ciate.
