this meeting or one to be held in Wor-
cester or possibly both, bird pageant
Speakers for the day will tell many
things about the birds that every men,
| Der of the grange and others as well
should know. In July there will be
held at the Massachusetts Agricultural
college a New England lecturers con-
ference. when it is expected that the
national lecturer, Hon. George w. +.

Buell., lecturer Of the Michigan state
grange, will be present All subordi-
nate and Pomona lecturers of New
England will be invited to be at the
conference as we'll as the state lectur-
ers from the New England states.
The conference will be held on July
30; July 81 will be known as home
makers day, and Aug. l will be a state
grange field day. On May 20 a degree
rally took place at Faneuil hall, Bos-
ton, when four states and sixty-eight
oranges were represented. Two de
grees were exemplified by a mems de
gree staff of Waltham. Mass, and one
by the ladies' degree staff of Shrews-

The Greater Vermont association,

town has one or more industries that
contribute very materially to the
welfare of every one in the place
and Secretary Taylor has made
the happy suggestion that the manu-
facturers keep "open house" on that

National Granqe Matters.

The legislative committee of the na.
tional grange spent a week in Wash
ington recently going over the COM
promise farm credit bill presented by
Congressman Buckley. This bill is
somewhat similar to the Bathrick
measure in that it recognizes govern
ment aid The bill was reported IA
vorably by the subcommittee, and II
is believed that there is a majority of
the joint committee in favor of the
measure National Master Wilson says
shat the grange is given the credit for
Killing the Fletcher bill through
the active response made to the ap-
peal to oranges throughout the country
to support the Bathrick bill The ma
tional master will address field meet
ings in Colorado, Wyoming, Kentucky

Several villages in Vermont are be-
coming interested in securing better
protection from fire, and the agitation
should not be ended until reasonable
equipment has been secured, together
with the necessary supply Of water,
says the Barre Times. Too many vii
lagos have suffered as the result of the
purely passive attitude maintained by
their people trusting to luck that
serious fire will not visit their com
munities. Luck is poor ally in this
kind of circumstances.

SHEEP AND DOGS.

The farmers of Vermont ought to
be interested in the sheep and wool con-
ference held recently in Washington.
Its members are urging federal bounty
system as a means to eXterminate pre-
datory animals on western ranges, the
enactment of State laws to control dogs
in farm States the Standardization of
wool by the Department of Agriculture,
the establishment of government sheep
breeding farms to determine the breeds
of sheep best adapted to various con-
ditions, and the creation of wool col
leges for the promotion of more
scientific methods in wool production.
In the report addressed to the Secre-
tary of Agriculture by committee APP
pointed for the purpose, it is pointed
out that the sheep industry of the United
States is now valued at approximately
$3.50, 000 600, but the unfavorable con-
ditions are causing the supply of sheer
to decrease rapidly. The conference
was called by the secretary in order tc
consider the problems presented by thi:
situation.
In Vermont as in other farming
States thousands of sheep are annually
destroyed by dogs, and this menace
keeps many farmers from taking ul
sheep husbandry. There is said to be
pressing need tor better legislation OF
this subject in many of the States, anC
it is suggested that the Department o
Agriculture could materially assist il
securing such legislation by giving thi
movement its moral support in ever.

The legend, Guaranteed under the
Food and Drugs Act" does not mean
what most people think it does. 1t does
not imply that the government has eX-
amined the goods solabeled or approved
their quality; it simply guarantees to
the dealer that the manufacturer is
legally responsible for his wares. In
view Of the public misunderstanding,
the Department of Agriculture has now
ruled that after May j. 1916, the phrase
shall not appear on the labels of foods

Less noise and pyrotechncs character
lied many Fourth of July celebrations
about Vermont on Saturday, but no one
is prepared to say that there was any,
thing lost in patriotism thereby. In
deed, there are many who say that I'M
der the new regime, or perhaps under
the return of an old time regime, a
greater degree of patriotsm was evinced
than was possible when too much noise
and too much fireworks were features
of the days celebrations. 1t is also
noteworthy that few serious accidents
marred the pleasures of the day. The
return to more sane, as we'll as

Recent ocean tragedies have drawn
public attention anew to the urgent
need of ampler provision for the pre-
servation of life at sea. 1t was eX-
pected that the treaty projected as the
outcome Of the International Convention
for the Safety Of Life at Sea would
have been negotiated without delay.
and that travellers would have had the
benefit of the increased safeguards
proposed to be established But even
the most desirable reforms are tardy in
the realization. At the present NOM
ent, lively discussion is going on in
England regarding the Empress of
Ireland disaster and a variety of in
genious cOntrivances are suggested for
use in sea-going passenger steamers.
