SAFETY FIRST.

If dollar is worth the great effort
required to earn it, it ought to be
worth the less effort required to save
it If "Safety First" is a good motto
to follow while you are pursuing the
elusive dollar, it ought to be a good
motto when that dollar becomes your
own. Mankind in general does many
perilous things for a dollar, some of
which perhaps may be justified by the
needs of mankind. There is not justi-
fcatlon for mankind in general to take
perilOus chances with the dollar that
has been accumulated.
The Central Savings Bank & Trust
company at Orleans, Vermont. is a
bank that realizes to the greatest
extent its responsibilities to the laws
of Vermont and to the people whom it
serves. 1t is differed by men who
have made their own dollars and there
fore know what dollar means to the
man who has armed it.
Along with the safety feature this
bank pays its depositors four per cent
interest. compounded sem-annually.
and also pays all taxes on deposits of

We read that the community church
at Londonderry is to publish a maya
zine called the Londonderry Messsen-
ger, presumably for the fundamental
purpose of expounding the truth
for which the organization stands
and advertising the enterprise. But
the undertaking is doomed from the
outset. Understandable pubica-
tons, whether that interest be a
church, a corporation, community or
a political party find little place with
the general public. Advertising support
is usually of a charitable nature, cir
people who believe in the object to
start with and the influence of such
publications seldom if ever reaches any
proportions. Such semi-public inter
ests may best be served by established
papers. Reasonable publishers are
liberal in the extreme in making equit
able arrangements for exploiting Wor-
thy enterprises through contributed
ILoWS ClaC are OIL d news nature. IN
the end these enterprises will find
themselves better off financially and
better served and exploited in the use
of the established public press, even
if it becomes necessary for them to
purchase regular space in which to
publish their own "say." Newspapers
might often. too. serve the public more
acceptably and advance worthy objects
OF semi-pubic character by encouraging
small departments devoted to special
interests and edited by those interest
ed in the object, keeping the material
of a Semi-news nature and condensed
Finally, such treatment of enter
prises Of some strength and influence
often rebounds to the financial ad-
vantage of the publisher. Such de-
partments when brought together in
the pages of newspaper under an
unbiased editor become interesting
reading while separated by themselves
and published alone they usually be-
come single-eyed and after a season
fall by the wayside unmourned, retard-
ing the very object for which they
worked.

Eat Your Favorite Food and Never Fear
After-Distress.
There is a way for you to eat what
ever your stomach Graves Many
will say How 1 wish I could but I
have tried and every time it nearly

The real trouble is that people who
suffer the untold agony of indigestion
do not realize that the stomach has
lot of work to perform in digestipg
the food and if crowded with extra
labor it rebels and kicks up a fearful
disturbance.
Milo ma, a simple inexpensive pre-
scription, easily obtained from F. D

and effectively stop this disturbance
or money refunded. It not only in
creases the flow of digestive juices, but
surely and safely builds up and
strengthens the stomach walls so that
what you eat is cared for as nature
intended.
It's needless for you to suffer with
indigestion, heartburn, biliousness,
sour, gassy or upset stomach, for
Mi o-na tablets surely give prompt
and lasting relief and are perfectly
harmless.

Prepare Now for Dear Eggs Next Fal

If the farmer wishes to benefit by
the high prices that eggs are certain
to bring next fall and winter, he
should begin to get ready for them at

early in the year is to hatch puIIets
early. 1t is the early matches from
which the early pullets are derived
that are the largest money makers for
the producer. The early Matched cock
erels can be marketed in almost any
market in America when they attain a
weight of three-fourths of pound to
pound and a half each. which they
should reach at about six to ten weeks
Of age. respectively, at greater prof

VALUE OF FORESTS PROVED
In Addition to Conserving Rainfall,
They Are Of Other Aids to
Agriculture.

While the rainfall of any region is
dependent on dynamic influences in
the atmosphere, and can be affected
only in very slight degree, if at all,
by the extent of that region covered
by forests, it has certainly been shown
that woods and forests conserve rain
fall. The briefest consideration indi-
Gates the likelihood that this must be
SO, because vegetation and the ground
covered with vegetation absorb water
and allow it to percolate slowly to the
lower levels, whereas on bare ground
the rainWater runs quickly away to
sea. But trees serve another purpose
in aid of agriculture; because, as some
recent experiments show, they act as
Windbreaks and shelters to growing
crops. The distance to which the pro
tective influence Of trees extends is
estimated at twenty times their
height, though complete protection,
such as might be afforded to growing
wheat in a gale, extends only to q dis
lance eight times the height Of the
trees. Partial protection is about
twelve to fourteen times the height.
They also check evaporation Of rain
fall, their influence extending five
times their height to windward and
eighteen times to leeward, and pre-
serve as much as 70 per cent. Of mois-
ture ordinarily lost. Finally, their
influence heats both air ana soil, IN
creasing the diurnal range of temper
ature by as much as nine degrees
Fahrenheit.

Just when some investigators in
Vermont's educational field are consid-
ering the ACCESSIBILITY of Withdrawing
opportunities to poor boys and girls to
get higher education by cutting off
the state scholarships at the state
university and the two colleges. in
vestigators in the educational fields of
Massachusetts are strongly of the
opinion that the commonwealth there
ought to foster higher education among
poor boys and girls by offering scholar
ships in colleges of the state although
the state has no control over the
colleges in which it is proposed to send
the boys and girls for education. In
other words, Mass achusetts is planning
to take just the position which some
people propose that Vermont shall
vacate in the educational system. In
asmuch as Massachusetts is looked
upon as state Of progressive princi-
Piles and ideas, generally speaking, it
will behoove Vermont to examine it's
proposition most infinitely before aban-
dOnng an idea which seems good to

haps in our efforts to revamp the
whole scheme of education in Vermont
we may go too far.-Barre Times.
In view of the fact that Vermont
today is appropriating to her institu-
tions of higher learning at the rate of
approximately % cents for every man
woman and child in the state per year
and Massachusetts at the rate of about
eight cents on the same basis, that
commonwealth may we'll do more (ano
Vermont less) before holding that state
