Lake Bomoseen. Of course, in places,
it is necessary for the Vermont roads
to be constructed of macadam but only
in small percentage. Nearly all of
the Vermont roads can be of gravel or
dirt, and they are the finest highways
for automobile travel imaginable.
The Vermont highway department is
conducted properly; it has the ght
idea. Gradually, even rapidly. is the
news spreading broadcast that the
roads of Vermont are better for
automobile touring than they are else
where, and fully expect the volume of
its business to largely increase each
year if Vermont continues in its
present policy of putting in shape long
stretches of dirt and gravel roads and,
at small expense per mile, maintaining
them, so that they are smooth and
easy both on cars and on their
occupants Rutland Herald.

best endeavors to make said special
session as short as possible.
"We also pledge ourselves to CO.

tive non-partisan direct primary law
and for that purpose to appoint per-
son to represent US, to act with like

We trust that such action on the part

Educational Butter Scoring.
$119, 1913. 80

Two of the series Of the educational
butter scorings under the direction of
the extension service of the University
of Vermont and state agricultural col
lege have been held. At the first, Jan.
%, % samples were received and scored
and on April %, there were So samples.
The sender of the sample was in each
case furnished with statement of his
score and the reasons for failure to
score perfect in any respect. and peril
nent suggestions as to possible i'm
provement. He also received a state
ment of the water and salt contents Of
his own butter and summary of all
scores emitting names. The butter'is
sold after being scored and the pro-
ceeds less the cost of carriage charges
returned to the owner. These butter
scorings have proven very popular and
instructive and justify the reputation
which Vermont holds as butter pro-
ducing state. Their continuance will
doubtless help to raise the standard.
Butter for the third scoring should be
sent to the Extension Service, College
of Agriculture, University of Vermont.
Morrill, Hall. Burlington, so that it
will reach there not later than August
5. and should be accompanied by a re-
port on methods of handling the cream
and butter. Blanks and directions for
shipping will be furnished free upon
application.

Attorney General Browns statement
of detective expenses in Orleans county
does not show extravaganza here. AS
we read it the net expense after fines
were paid is about S475 in this county.
AS result two persons were sent to
the house of correction and a bad
band of gypsies shown their place. Of
the amount spent for detective service
here S258 was given to local men. 1t

States Income from Automobiles to be a
Record One.

Secretary of state, Guy w. Bailey
estimates that the income from auto
mobiles, based on present returns and
the ratio of increase, will approximate
$3.50, 900 for the year of 1914, the largest
collected by the so-called automobile
tax in the history of the state. Ver-
mont is one of the pioneer states to
rate automobiles on the basis Of horse
power and Mr.. Bailey is considered the
father of the law which has made it
possible to place such great sum into
highways annually, which with the
5000, 900 highway appropriation makes
a grand total of upwards of S350,000
which is Vermont's annual contribution
to the cause of good roads and is max
ing her highways among the best in
New England. 49,
The bulk of the registration is done
in the spring and early summer months
from March to July. For these four
months the fees, according to returns
to the secretary of state. totalled
S118. 1889 exceeding any previous
four corresponding months in the his
tory of the present law. The automo-
bile fees from various sources run
about $500 day. That they will come
in steadily so as to total $4,000 to
$50, 900 before the end of the season is
confidently expected, and in that event
the estimate of $4,000 for the year
will be realized. This is in addition to
the fees paid prior to March l which
will help complete the grand total.
For the four big months mentioned
there were 1874 new cars registered
which would represent an expenditure
on the part of Vermont people of abou
100, 900 for automobiles if the car;
averaged to cost $500 each, represent
! ing an average expenditure per caolt;
of a trife over So, based on the las
national census.
The increase in automobile fees IL

markable. In 1909 there were regis

Let the Records Answer.

Certain stand-pat reactionary news
papers are much troubled by the I'M
seemly political conduct of Mr.. Prouty
in making certain charges against SEN
ator Dillingham;. In the two weeks
since that letter appeared the charges
have not been denied. They are either
true or false. The records of the Sen
ate will show whether Senator Dilling-
ham has 'acted with that coterie of
senators who have been known as
champions of special interests and
who have been known as the body
guard of Senator Aldrich when he Was
the leader of the United States Senate"
Of this coterie Smoot of Utah, Penrose
of Pennsylvania, Lorimer of Illinois,
etc. are shining examples. When those
charges are denied you can trust Mr..
Prouty to prove his case.-Morrisville

The next problem to be solved by
Mr.. Gates in perfecting his thus far
excellent road policy. is that of laying
the dust on our selected highways.
The nuisance is already one that should
be given attention. It is not only a
matter of annoyance to travellers,
whether by automobile or team, but as
decided a plague to jewellers along the
roadside. The expense of laying the
dust on the main highways would not
be an entire loss for such a result
would save the surface of our roads to
a large extent and in this manner save
repair and resurface bills.

Off with His Head.

The ST. Johnsbury Caledonian wants
to abolish the office of attorney gener-
al because it costs more than it is
worth. Most of US would be willing
to abolish the present incumbent and
put real lawyer on the job. The
Caledonian has not yet suggested
abolishing the office of governor.
though it is suspected of being out of
sympathy with the present executive.
For instance, it says: The item of
Sc. 389. 62 for special attorneys is I'M
doubtedly the work of the governor in
giving jobs to his friends as special
counsel and nothing the legal authori-
ties are responsible for.
This is at least 'damning with
faint praise Perhaps if the at
torney-general had been qualified for
the place there wouldn't have been SO
much special counsel necessary.
