Dunn 5 Review of bank clearings in

gains of the year. Business is improv-
ing fast in New England, and is at its
best in Ohio, Michigan, Indiana. Hi
nois and Wisconsin. 1t is poorest in
California and Oregon, and bad in the
cotton area. The wheat prospect is so
good that prices Of gains have fallen
so heavily as to Offset advances in
other lines, and the net result IS a full
in the average commodity prices. This,
however, is temporary, and the gen
eral trend is for higher commodity
prices and improving business. Dunn
gives a report of the cotton acreage
which shows an average decrease in
the cotton acreage Of about 20 per
cent with decrease of about 30 per
cent in the use of fertilizers, which
will make for still smaller yield Of
cotton The entire South has had a
month of no rain, which has retarded
the sprouting and the sowing of cot
ton seed, which will also tend to de-
crease the cotton crop.

road net returns, fewer idle freight
cars, increased iron production, heavy
bank clearings and successful bond flo
tations are all indicative of better
conditions in the United States. Euro
pean demand for American steel has
been heavy, and trade authorities say
that possibility Of war between tue
United States and Germany has not in
any way disturbed the steel trade;
there has been no cancellation of Or
ders or anything else to indicate a
crisis. In fact the industrial and fl
nancial world seems to look with
equanimitv on the entire international
situation.

BARRE Illness J

A great deal of publicity has been Civ
en- to the statement that the death rate
from cancer was the greatest in Vermont
during 1913 Of any state in the regis
tration area" of the United States. To
offset that-more than to offset 1.-THE
statement should be made that in the
same year Vermont showed the lowest
mortality from typhoid fever, made
marked progress in reducing the death
rate from tuberculosis, had a far lower
death rate from diphtheria than the
states of the eastern section, showed bet
ter control of pneumonia than those same
states, had remarkably creditable rating
as regards infant mortality, was about
the average in the matter Of deaths from
Bright's disease and, finally, was one of
the leading states as regards the small
proportion of deaths due to s'ill-defined
or unknown causes The record of the
year is decidedly to the credit of the pub
| lie health department of the state and the
medical profession of Vermont 1t speaks
very well, too, for the public health OF
the entire state. Some day medical sci
| ence viii discover the mystery of cancer;
and that day Vermont will be found al
the forefront of the battle against the
disease Just as it has placed itself in the
research to find the germ Of poliomye1itis
The investigators along the latter lin,
may not be the first to discover thu
germ, but they and their state are prov
ing themselves alive to the needs of til,
world in public health. By the way, i
deserves to be stated again that Yer
mont's continued support of its medica
college is making all this progress largely
/ possible. Let us resolve to keep it III
and to maintain Vermont at its presen
good position as indicated by fullybase,
statistics.

The meeting of the Greater Vermont
association at Brattleboro was the best
yet held by this association, and should
inspire enthusiasm to push along the
wealth there is in this state it is rath-
er disgraceful that the work Of the
Greater Vermont association Is not
more generously financed. 1t has to
struggle along like a country church
and often has trouble i'll making ends
meet. Bennington has reason to feel
gratifed that the town was more
largely represented ut the gathering
than any other place in the state, but
in spite of this fact Bennington is not
giving the support that it should to the
work. The rank and file of Nermonters
do not realize the value to the state
of James 2. Taylor, who is the active
and able secretary of the Greater Yer
mont association. He Is giving all his
force and energy and a high degree
of talent to the service of the state
and is not only very poorly paid. but
often finds 1t impossible to raise funds
to carry on the work. Generous citi-
zens of Vermont should come forward
and show their appreciation and in
terest. Membership in the association
costs SO per year, we believe, and if a
thousand men will put in SO each for
a few years they will find the state will
be benefited many fold, even though
they may not personally get their mon
ey back
