how art begins where technique leaves

AN EVENTFUL DATE.

June so is perhaps the most impor-
tant business day in the year, though
it may have to split the honor with
Jan. l, for it marks the close of the
fiscal year for the government and
most corporations. Nearly all of the
railroads close their books on June
80. 1t was especially important this
year because it saw the passing of
the Aldrich-Vreeland act. Enacted on
May so, 1908, to provide a remedy
for conditions similar to those which
had cost the country so dearly in the
panic of 1907, it was never brought
into use in its natural life, and
would have been an insurance policy
under which no benefits were collected
had it not been extended for q year
as part of the federal reserve act. 1t
is safe to say that at the time of its
extension no one thought the emer-
gency currency provisions would ever
be brought into use, but the outbreak
of the European war made them in
valuable. Under the terms of the law

One of the most attractive supple
ments published by any newspaper in
Vermont in years is issued this week
by the st. Johnsbury Caledonian, 10
pages being devoted to the purebred
cattle in Caledonia county. The pages
are embellished with many attractive
showing fine herds and
glimpses of the farms where they are
owned. The articles will be q revela-
ton to many in showing the progress
siveness of the Vermont farmer, as in
the one small county 1,433 head Of
purebred cattle are owned, valued con-
at $234,475, or at an aver
age price of $163.63, including the
young stock. There is a growing ten
dency not only in Caledonia county, but
throughout the state, to breed fine eat
tie, and the dairying industry is no
longer conducted on the hit-or-miss
as the work of the numerous
cow-testing associations is going a long
way toward making dairying an exact
science. The successful farmer of the
future will know just what is doing like
the successful business man in industri-
al and mercantile lines.

The War and Automobiles.

christian Science Monitor.)
One of the striking peeuliarities of
the situation in the United States
that has grown out of the war is the
great increase in the domestic demand
for automobiles, notwithstanding the
supposed economies the conflict has
forced throughout the world One rea-
son for this doubtless IS that much
money has been saved by people w4lo
usually spend their vacations abroad
and who this year Were prevented from
going to Europe. \ considerable por
tion OF this money may have gone to
the purchase of automobiles. More
over horses are daily becoming scarcer
and higher in value. Since the war
began expectations of horses from the
United States have increased to about
twelve times the usual volume. There
are more automobiles used on Aneri-
can farms than ever before, and de-
mand for them from this source is con
stantly becoming more urgent.

a great surprise at the numerical
strength thus indicated in the student

of the report showed how the result in

enrolled, which is ~ short of 1000. Of
the 923, 270 attended summer school. Sc

Greenfield, after raising $4,000, has
another guess coming. The Manches-
ter, N. H., baseball team of the New
England league viii remain in Man
chester The business men of the New
Hampshire metropolis felt little
touchy at the prospect of having the
team transferred from a city of $4,000
population to town of 10000 and
raised $4,000 to keep the team going.
There is a good deal of a question,
however, whether the team would not
have drawn more spectators in Green
field than in Manchester, Judging by
the liberal support given a Twin state
league club in Greenfield.

Humming in Automobile Business.
(TIolyoke Transcript.

Vermont ism It an urban state. Her
Green Mountains furnish much woed
land scenery and very many sky farms,
yet she is humming right along i'll the
automobile business. Secretary and
Treasurer Lester H. Greene Of the Au-
tomobile Club of Vermont, says that
since June l registrations have been
coming in at the rate of about 30 per
day. The 10000 mark has already
been passed on a canter, SO to speak,
with the 1900 in sight, and it looks as
though July would be a banner month
in the business. It is worth noting in
this connection that the number of reg
istrations on June l last, exceeded by
2,720 those of the corresponding period
last year, and if they continue to in
crease accordingly for the balance of
the year in the same ratio, the revenue
from this source ought easily to pass
tho 100000 mark.

Oxford, which had. two years more to
run. He will enter business in New

tional work. At the opening of the
war he was in Switzerland After sew
eral thrilling experiences he reached
London, but with total loss of baggage
and personal belongings. Mr. Bosworth

his not to reason why" And father is
beginning to resent this treatment
So his admirers yes, father has a

selves, and on the last day of June
a month devoted exclusively to the
exclusion of father, the populace is to
go forth and do honor where honor
belongs.

the calibre of the man. measurable in
the extent of the clamor of his jubi-

citizen and unprecedented observers
will admit that he accomplished an
enormous amount of cleanup work
At the same time his career serves as
a warning of the awful fate awaiting
even the best-intentioned of persons
whey they are lacking in tact and
discretion. If Comstock had pos
sessed these two requisites he could
have accomplished much more than
he did, without acquiring anyone's dis

CHICAGo's CONDITION BETTER.

Chicago's strike has been called off,
and the great city Of the middle west
will soon renew its normal condition.
1t is fortunate things are on the high
road to settlement for, at best. no
good could come from such chaos.
Troubles of the street car men will
receive better treatment through
pe aceful methods, and at the hands Of
a board of arbitration. Had lockout
been maintained, loss OF property and
possibly of lives might have resulted
with the ever present danger OF a
small civil war. To make the people
III Chicago and it's great outlying dis
tricts walk, or take 1itneys, to their
places of employment, could engender
nothing but the worst feeling and
arouse in normal men the animal
qualities which are better left DOR
mant.
From all accounts, the city council
of Chicago had nothing to do with
aileviating strike conditions. More to
the shame of that body. But whoever
brought about the plan Tor concilia
ton deserves credit,-whether it be
Mayor Thompson or the street car
men themselves. Our only hope now
is that differences will be patched up
to the advantage Of all concerned, and
the great city of Chicago may run
along in its regular workday fashion.
