ton of SOO,0OO,000 persons

to the first of April the total cost
of the war was 40,000,00O marks
($1O000,000,0O0). Italy again ex-
cepted, he placed the annual cost OF
such a war at $15,O0O,000000.
1t would take 60,0O0,000 of the
huge 1,000-mark bank notes to pay
this cost, and these notes, stacked
up one on top of the other, would
make a pile 10000 feet, almost four

This sort of business means the
doing away wi h country towns.
What W i'll it mean to farmers to have
only few large cities at a distance
of 500 or 900 miles? What are we
going to do with our children, who
are demanding even better advant-
ages than we had?
Those cities we help to build re-
turn no favors; they take our money
but offer no credit in time of need.
If we want high schools, etc. we
must raise the money and build near
our farm homes or send our boys and
girls to the cities at great expense,
amidst temptations of which the
farm has no equal. Neither am | the
only awakening farmer. These mail
order agents that come to our homes
every week are becoming a nuisance
and making it unsafe to leave women
and children alone on the farm.
With farm cordially we take these
strangers into our homes, often as
one of the family, and we are some
times paid in having them entice our
girls to the city.
These are some facts that need
consideration. and | have decided
that the safest proposition all around
is for the country people to look
after their own interests, and build
up their own country towns that
bring value to their farms. Let
those who want to patronize the city
mail order house go there to live,
getting their living where they give
their patronage. The remainder OF
my life will be given to building up
the home town that | helped to pull
down. Brother farmers, you can
take my advice.or get your knowledge
the way | got mine.

Vermont Sugar Makers Should Meet
Demands of the Market

While an increasingly large part
of Vermont maple products is mar
keted as syrup and caked sugar,
more than one half the crop is prob
ably still marketed as tub sugar.
When such sugar is cooked at a low
err temperature than 240 degrees F.
syrup will seperate from the sugar
and fermentation will take place in
warm weather. While there may be
a limited market for a small quantity
of soft sugar early in the season Tor
immediate consumption, yet the
great bulk of Vermont maple sugar
should be cooked hard enough to
stand transportation to long dis
tances and to keep without shrinkage
for long time.
Dealers in Vermont sugar agree
that because our sugar makers are
not cooking their sugar hard enough
we are losing the trade of many
eastern and western consumers who
are coming to prefer Canadian sugar
event at higher price, because it is
always made uniformaly hard and
there is consequently no loss from
shrinkage.
Vermont sugar should always
command the highest price, because
it is second to none in quality. Our
fathers should be careful to make
the new crop of sugar particularly
hard and thereby help to get back
the business that has been lost.
This is particularly vital at this
time, because after May LIST, 1916,
the duty will be removed from
Canadian sugar and Vermont sugar
makers must compete with Canadian
sugar on duty free basis.
Makers of tub sugar this spring
should boil the sugar until the Their
momete1 registers 240 degrees.
