He warned the dry-farm men not to

that the past season had brought an
unusual rainfall and bounteous crops on

A BARRE BANK PARTICIPATES.
Peoples National to Take Share in
Anglo-French Loan.

A Barre banking institution, the Peo-
pies National bank, is participating in
the 100000 loan which the allies
have recently negotiated with American
capital. 1t is understood that federal
reserve banks throughout the country
are generally subscribing to the gigantic
loan and in good many instances bank
ing institutions are eager to get the new
security. So far as can be learned, the
Peoples National bank is alone in its
local subscription, although it is possible
that people here with capital are inter-
esting themselves in an investment that
means return of 51a per cent to the
investor. Statutory provisions in Yer
mont inhibit the savings banks and
trust companies from participating in
the loan and consequently none of the
trust companies in Barre has subscribed.
0ut-of the state loans Chat may be
handled by Vermont trust companies are
plainly described in the statutes and as
no reference is made to the immense
foreign loan that is now attracting so
much attention among fnaneiers, ii fol-
lows that state controlled banks cannot
although in number of other
states, it is said, the banking laws are
so constructed as to permit subscription
on the part Of the banks directly ac-
10 state examiners.

SUBMARINES CROSSED OCEAN.
Four of the Small Vessels Made Success.
full Trip

Boston, Oct. A fotilla of Ameri.
can built submarines which ventured
across the Atlantic to join the British
naval forces at Gibraltar, made the pas
sage safely under its own power and
without extraordinary discomfort for
the crews, according to letters received
here yesterday from men who shared
in the expedition.
Conveyed by larger warships, the little
squadron OF four vessels fresh from the
yards at which they were assembled at
Montreal proceeded down the st. Law
renee river and after stop at st. Johns,
n. f., put to sea for Gibraltar. No ex-
tremely rough weather was encountered
and all of the boats were able to make
the long run under their own engines.
Provision had been made to tow them
if they got into trouble. The crews stood
the heavy rolling Of the craft very well
and are said to have enjoyed the trip.
The aotilla formed part OF group of
10 submarines for which the British ad.
miralty had contracted in the United
States.
