In the state prison at Windsor are
about twenty women prisoners and
at the House of Correction at Rutland
a'e some thirty more. At neither
place are the facilities in any way
complete for taking care of women
prisoners and an Improvement is
needed. All the women prisoners
should so to one Institution and at
that there should be adequate
quarters for them and tangements
for giving them employment. AS the
situation now exists at Rutland there
is no work for the women prisoners,
while at Windsor there is work. but
no quarters. Across the street from
the state prison at Windsor is a lot
owned by the state and on this lot
should be erected a prison to be used
exclusively for women. 1t would cost
some money and Vermont hasn't any
money to spare, but the need exists
just the same.

FUR PRICES LOWER

Trspp.rs Will Get Less for Raw
skins Than for Some Seasons Past
Partly because of the European wa,
and partly because extraordinary
high p-ices of the last few years have
glutted the market with certain kinds
Of raw furs trappers will receive less
this year than for several seasons for
raw skins. the lower prices affecting
all kinds of fur.bearing animals
caught In Vermont.
One big fur concern says OF the
situation
The prospects this season are far
from encouraging Values OF Ameri-
can raw furs have always been Great
ed by the competition OF seven i'm
portant nations. six of which are now
at war Instead Of having the world
market for this years catch, we
only have America as customer and
general business conditions in Amer
lea are none too bright at present.
Prices will be much lower than
have preyaileSl-for several years and
there is no chance for Improvement
unless the war is ended as suddenly
as it was commenced thing that
does not look likely.
Last years catch has not been
consumed and the stocks of old fu.s
in dealers hands are much larger
than ever before. They are more
anxious to sell than TO buy and are
forcing prices down in an effort to
realize"
The prices quoted for skins such as
are taken in Bennington county are
as follows: Mink. $3.50 to $3.50: rae
coons. $3.50 TO s225; red foxes. $3.50
to s4: muskrat. u TO IS cents; skunk.

Vermont, has 10000 less people
than New Hampshire and an assessed
valuation less than one-haf as large.
-fnosburg Standard.
The above statement is fair
sample of many arguments based on
figures. Does the Standard mean to
say that the property values of New
Hampshire are double those of Yer
mont or is it that different system
of assessment brings different re-
suit. AS a matter OF fact isn't it true
that the actual property value of Yer
mont is only trifle less than that Of
New Hampshire?

a tendency for rural people to permit
the city people to set for them their

The garment designers of the city
change the styles each season and we
as country people accept their crea-
tions as though IL were a necessity
The city man buys practically all OF his
food stuffs In package form because il
Is about the only form in which IL Is
available, but when the country home
uses these food stuffs II is a matter OF
choice, and the housewife pays for the
false economy. Again why should the
rural child study in detail the com

literature Of foreign or that of coun-
tries that have ceased TO exist. and

them. believe in studying the things

greetings, happy gatherings. good
cheer and kind wishes. Eniey the

dear and precious memories that you

To, but for the time live in the sun
shine, brighten the atmosphere and
bring JOY to those about you; for
the day live for Others, live for
those that love you and are left for
You TO love. Earth's transitory
things have their heavenly side as
well as their earthly; look to the
former and it never fails to remit
Dme ray Of light, while the latter
may only-impart appalling darkness
IL has been said, and most truly,
too. that life is much what we make
it, and so will be your Christmas:
il may be the sunshine of your whole
life of which YOU may absorb so
much it will so brighten the rugged
way you have to tread, half of the
sorrows of life will be mitigated,
AMI large share of its griefs
assuaged. Then drink your fill of
its joys. and sip sparingly of its
possible sorrows, and thus, dear
readers, may you one and all have a
most truly joyous, happy and merry

fail TO note the absence of many
that were with us year ago. But
now they are gone, been called home
