YERMoNTs ROAD POLICY

: The Monitor has been a believer IL
the. road policy of this state and q
defender of it and after listening tC
an hours illustrated talk on the sub
ject by State Commissioner Gates,
the writer is more than ever convinc-
ed that Vermont is on the right road
basis. The increased interest in
roads by the public and the public's
general endorsement of the policy
of Mr.. Gates adds to the argument
that the policy of building the best
road possible with the material at
hand, and paying for it as we go, is
the Ibest policy for Vermont.
Bonding for trunk line highways
may be proper for states like Massa-
chusetts and New York where there
are great centers of population and
even New Hampshire's population is
distributed to much better advantage
for trunk lines than is the popula-
ton of Vermont, but New Hamp-
shire is questioning the wisdom of
its move already; the great and
wealthy state of New York is groan-
ing under the burden of their high
way system and Governor Glynn said
within a month that before the citi-
zens of New York state had paid
the interest on their road bonds for
ten years their roads would be worn
out.
Mr.. Gates goes on the theory that
to drain, straighten and grade road
is the first thing to be done any way
and such work is not thrown away
in any event, and if the present
policy of surfacing with the best ma
terial at hand is not satisfactory a
hnf hA mt OF ON
future period. Good gravel is ad-
vocated and used where possible or
practicable and makes one of the
best road surfaces obtainable.
Mr.. Gates's handling of the whole
road situation which has developed
under his administration from almost
no fixed policy to the present highly
efficient and satisfactory methods of
road construction is a marvellous
development and the magnitude of
the work, it's great benefits to the
public and the untiring efforts of
those behind the movement are lit
tie realized by the people in general.
During this period of development
have come the complicated and
changing conditions brought about
by the automobile. All these phases
of the situation have been studied
and a policy evolved that appears
to meet the demands of the time
in a surprisingly satisfactory manner.
To Mr.. Gates and to him alone may
be attributed most of the success of
Vermont's highways and highway
system.
The Monitor is not in the habit of
handing out compliments to every
public official, or private individual
for that matter, but was more than
ever impressed with Mr.. Gates's abil-
ity to handle money and men and
circumstances to the advantage of
the public after listening to him at
the annual Orleans county road
meeting.-Orleans County Monitor.

The Prouty Boom

Whether because it was launched
too early or not, the Prouty boom
does not seem to be making great
Roadway. So far it has been largely
confined to Orleans, Orange and
Washington counties. Although some
prominent Republicans Rave fallen in
line, it is the Progressives who are
doing most of the shouting. If we
are correctly informed, Mr.. Prouty
has confined his correspondence on
the subject to the Progressives. Of
course, Mr.. Prouty is not seeking the
Office. He has said he doesn't care
to put aside his present work for a
seat in the Senate. But the progress
sives insist, and he now consents to
the use of his name. In a letter to
charles H. Thompson he says:
1 am still entirely ignorant of what
is taking place in a political way in
our state, but upon reflection do not
essary to an answer l know of no
reason why, if the Progressive party
of Vermont without solicitation on
my part, sees fit to support me for
United States senator, l should OBJ
ject. Indeed, such action would he
a mark of confidence upon the part of
the men who make up and control
that party which L should most high
ly appreciate.
Upon receipt of this letter, Mr..
Thompson gave out a statement, say
ing that the whole matter is now in
the hands of the Progressive party
and that the party itself must deter
mine whether it will nominate him
or not. That is the situation as it
stands today. Meanwhile, the non
partisan Prouty club is busy, and if
the Progressives, as a party, indorsa
him, Mr.. Prouty will have big start.
He undoubtedly has a large follow
ing in Vermont, but with the unset
tied political conditions N the state
it is impossible to predict who will
win. Direct primary may have a lot
to do with it.--Vergennes Vermonter.

The Decline of Trout Fishing

Perhaps no form of game has
inspired so much, imaginative and
technical literature as the trout
His habitat is about as widely ex-
tended in this country as any spe-
cies of the wild life He stands for
Machiavelian subtilety in evading
the assault of man. His elusigeness
tempts the sportsman to a restless
and never satisfied desire for his
capture.
There was a time when trout
were common enough, not merely
in hill and forest regions, but in a
great many farming districts. Me-
tropolitan sportsmen made forays
into the rural districts with their
complicated library of artificial flies.
But the country boy with his tin box
of worms knew the ways of Mfr.
Trout, and got most of the fish fries.
Today the magazines advertise
trout fishing for every one, but of
course, for most people in the coun-
try, it is at the cost of an expensI. e
railroad ticket. Sportsmen's clubs
and fish commissions are restocking
streams, but the area of possible.
trout fishing is still restricted. Yer
mont people may not fully appreci-
this state, Maine, portions of Eew
York, New Hampshire and other
northern states trout fishing in this
country is not much more common
than awaiting.
The trout are a great asset to
Vermont, and for that reason every
true sportsman will see to it not
only that the fish are properly pro-
tected in season but that the
streams are kept in good condition
for the speckled beauties ana that
they are regularly restocked. The
state fish and game commissioner,
John w. Titcomb, is doing spen-
did work and his deputies for the
most part are cooperating with him
effectively to preserve and to in
crease this valuable resource.
Authorities on sport say that
trout fishing might easily become
more generally accessible. Within
two hours of any large city, it is
declared, are brooks that could be
bought up for few hundreds of
dollars, and stocked with trout and
made accessible at moderate cost
to clubs of men.
The trouble with such enterprises
is often that people are no longer
content to do things in a simple
manner. A modest old country
farm house would not serve as the
club house. There must be the
soft luxury of city club life, with
metropolitan chefs and abundance
of liquid good cheer.
Meanwhile many country people
are quietly buying up fishing rights
in their own neighborhood for lit
tie or no money that some day win
be valuable. 1t is a simple thing,
unless a section is fiat, to dam up
a stream so as to assure some
depth of water in droughts, and to
protect the brook from such big
ger fish as are natural enemies. In
fact, the time is here when trout
should be raised by private enter
Prise to be sold to the markets the
year round. In this way the natural
trout fishing could be more effec-
lively rotected.-Rutland News.

WANT VERMONT CATTLE
Some Selling at High Prices and
Outsiders Want More

Fred L. Davis of White River
Junction, State cattle commissioner,
in the course of a conversation with
L Free Press reporter said that Yer
mont cattle were gaining a greater
reputation for quality than ever be-
lore. Breeders and dairy owners
are taking more interest in their
herds. The State is now interested
n, the inspection for tuberculosis of
herds that have never been tested
before Herd owners must after
the first test pay for subsequent
tests.
There is a great demand for Yer
mont dairy cattle outside the State,
Mr.. Davis said, and hundreds of
4rlodds have been shipped in the
last year to many points in the
United States and as far west as
the state of Washington. Every
cow has to be tested before it leaves
the state and out of the great num-
Der shipped in the last year only
between 100 and 140 have showed
signs of tuberculosis. Mr.. Davis
was inclined to think that Vermont's
future was in a great measure de-
pendent upon the efficiency of it's
dairy animals, ard he thought this
feature should be doomed to the
utmost. More cattle are shipped
from Vermont for dairy purposes
than from any other New England
state in proportion to the number
of farms, and the reputation of the
stock outside is of the highest. Yer
mont has also about one-third of
all the COW testing associations in
the United States, and the quality
of the cows in the state cannot be
surpassed.
In connection with Mr.. Davis
statement the success of a Passump-
sic farmer is of interest. w. H.
Barker, proprietor of Meadow View
Farm recently sold three Holstein
cows and calf to Richard T. East
man of Littleton, n. H., for $1,000.
Mr.. Barker has sold $3.50 worth of
Holstein cattle in the last six
months and has 20 head left.

RHEUMATISM: THE RIDDLE
Confined from page J

ment. the services Of a good osteopath.
Sciatica is generally classed as rheumatism
because it hurts the same way-only worse.
Il is frequently due to Slight dislocations OF
the hip Joint, known as sacro-iliac subluXa-
tons. Ii such is found to be the case. este
opathv will cure it; but if the sciatica IS
neuralgic in origin. if it is the nerve bawling
Justify for food, feed it; for hammering It
over the head with analgetics and sedatlyes
is merely palliative. When it RECEIVERS con-
seriousness it will redouble its protesting
shrieks.
Tiny veins in the legs sometimes, as the
result Of long standing or other strain, be-
come dilated and stretched. This causes a
"pinching" of the nerves. and this pinching
causes them to yell for help. An elastic
stocking or other support will quiet them;
but a better way is TO quit the standing job,
and get one as president Of a bank, or some
light form of occupation that can be con-
Quoted from q chair.
Then we have a very painful and chronic
form of rheumatism due to flat feet, also
known as "broken or falling arch. This
causes more or less severe pain in the feet
and the lower legs, mostly along the shin
bone There is almost instant relief for this
variety in having an orthopedist fit pair Of
