the attention which it deserves. Ar ordinarily good crop in Vermont is estimated at something like 3,20O,00O
 bushels of good quality. But this is far below what might be raised, con sidering the soil and climate of Yer mont. And so organized efforts are being made to get the farmers to plant new trees and to take better care of the old ones. The rest of New England will hope that such ef- forts may meet with the largest suc- cess and that Vermont's crop may be more than doubled.
 But Vermont should not have monopoly of this sort of thing. That state has no advantage over Connecti- cut, ard in fact is far behind us in some matters. We also have the land which can be used for apple raising profitably. We have the eli mate which apples need if they are to get that peculiar twang which consti- tutes a good part of their excellence. And we are near the markets, and even near the points of shipm ents for the foreign market In some years in the past lack of proper facilities has resulted in large crops which did not reach their proper markets. But certainly there is ability enough in the state so to organize distribution.

The Spcakership Today.
Washington Star.)

There is now before us an exhibi- tion of the great change made four years ago when the office of speak CT of the House was stripped of all real power, and it's occupant left with nothing but the gravel in his hand. Until then the speakership had been second in importance only to the presidency. Since then it has possessed next to no importance at all. It would have been quite lost to view except for the man occupying it. He has conferred distinction up- on it, rather than it upon him.
 The house is assem bling at a time of the utmost gravity. Not two or three, but many things are pressing for attention. It is a time when noe only every member should do his duty, but should be assigned so as to give the country the best that is IF him. No square peg should be put into round hole, no round peg into square hole. Every piece of the machine should be in it's proper place But what do we see? One of the most experienced members of the body, it's most effective orator. and one of it's most striking and interest ing personalities assigned to the du- ties of a presiding officer, with his talents limited to exercise over points of order and to the putting of motions to adjourn. Could anything be less logical or less business-like Was ever before so much good legislative material wasted?
 Of course, MT. Clark can descend to the floor and speak on any subject that appeals to him; can record his vote on any question that comes up; can make suggestions to any member or any committee on any matter in hand. But such privileges do not cancel the fact that, as he is left by the present arrang cement, he must butt in," or wait for an invi-

Connecticut's Inventive Genius.
Bridgeport Standard.) ;.


 The Waterbury American asks it's readers to think over" the fact that a good part of Waterbury's industrial efficiency lies in the machinery its men of mechanical genius have in- vented and made to produce the goods it manufactures and sells. we are proud,' it says, ito have others notice this efficiency and the ways and means bv which we accomplish it." Bridge port is in very much the same posi- .4UI. Hundreds of articles turned out in immense quantities in the manu- factories of this city are articles de- vised by Bridgeport inventors and pro- tected by patents.
 Connecticut has been among the first of the states in the number of its patents annually taken out, and it's manufacturing towns have kept the patent office busy. Both Waterbury and Bridgeport are manufacturing towns and in proportion to population the patents taken out in each must be very nearly alike in number. The activity of the inventive impulse does not appear to diminish, although it takes on new phases and develops along new lines as the conditions of life and industry change. Speaking of how other towns may learn the ways of Waterbury and profit by that knowledge the American says: But if they learn how to do it and obtain from us the machinery by which it is done they will be able to make the goods we now sell to the market"
 Bridgeport has always been liberal in its treatment of outside cities and countries with respect to assistance of Al 1wsx- n. sz-l-A Forty years ago the Union Metallic Cartridge company, which had been making cartridges for Russia, sent its superintendent, A. c. Hobbs, then one of the most noted inventors in the world, to Russia, where he set up ma- chinery and started a plant for the Russians which would have made them independent of this country if they had possessed the skill and abil- ity to improve upon the teaching and to make the most of it possible.

tation. Nothing is expected of him on his own initiative.
 Take the case of preparedness. It Is reasonably certain that had not the president invited him, MT. Clark would not have called at the White House to discuss the most important issue of the day. And it so happens that on that issue MT. Clark is in agreement with the president and public sentiment, while the man who under the new arrangement is lead- CT of the House is in opposition.
 This change as to the speakership was ordered because of the clamor the democrats had made against what they called "Cannonism.'' But that clamor had also embraced "gag rule;" and yet as to that they have copied the republicans most faith fully. Why make fish of one feature of "Cannonism" and flesh of another?
