BAPTISM Of FIRE

Copenhagen, Jan. 23.-How a mum.
Der of war correspondents received
their baptism Of fire while at feast
with French officers in hotel at
Rheims is described by a representa-
tive of the Politiken, who writes:
Here we received our baptism of
fire, and we received 1t during a feast.
The occasion may be termed epic. 1t
was so impressive and remarkable
that none of those who were present
are ever likely to forget it,
ut seemed that to sit down to such
feast at moment when France was
involved in this terrible war of peo-
pies, was nothing short of being
criminal insult to mankind.
eve had arrived too late from
Epernay to take look at the city be-
fore luncheon, and for this reason we
were Immediately taken to the hotel.
"An odd spectacle greeted my eyes
as l stepped from the automobile.
The entire front of the hotel building
had been wrecked by shells. l asked
the hotel servant when this had been
done. He replied: The day before
yesterday, sir!'
One would have thought that this
sort of thing would have caused one S
spirits to go down a little. Nothing
of the sort happened. We had brought
with us some of the good cheer of the
troops in the field, and noticed that
the inhabitants of Rheims moved
about in a rather careless manner
so we sat down and enjoyed the
very excellent luncheon. The large
windows of the dining room looked
upon the square where little while
before some German shells had land
ed. There was nothing to insure us
against one of the German iron greet
ings breaking on us with explosive
fervor. Possibly, many of us thought
of this, but conversation soon became
animated. Some of the officers pres
ent had just returned from the trench
es and were full of stories regarding
their experiences.
Bordeaux wine was followed by
champagne. And why not-consider-
ing that the latter Is the product of
the country we were in. So we drank
and forgot all about the Germans and
their guns.
THE last glass had not been filed
when a shell exploded under one of
the windows of the dining room. A
correspondent got up, raised his glass,

companied us, beginning Gentle

Over Production.

Nothing is more detrimental to
any branch of business than a
flooded market. And a flooded
market is generally the result of
abundance or over production.
Therefore if a large yield of any
one product has tendency to flood
the market, what will be the result
when the scope of raising these pro-
drc's has increased a hundred fold /?
Last season thousands Of bushels
of citrus fruits, both in the south
and extreme west, rotted on the

whole country was over-supplied
with this fruit, or rather that the
supply was above the demand, but
because the unworked up demand
could not be supplied with the mark

Back Roads. :"

We have had occasion to travel
many of our highways known as
back roads," this season, and find
them in most deplorable condition.
Some of them are almost impas-
sable. Some of them have not been
worked, or repaired up to the pres
ent time. They are quilted out,
washed out, and in some cases, as
in the hill roads northeast of
Charleston, the traveller has to take
to the fields or wood roads in order
to get along at all. The scattered
farmers along these roads say-and
with mighty good reasons too that
the state and towns furnish them no
money to work these roads. The
money all goes into the automobile
roads for people to sport over. If
any work is done on their roads
they have to do it; and in many in
stances as houses are a mile or more
apart, and the highways in between
are of the washable or easily-out-of
repair kind, tits an expensive job
for the few isolated farmers to keep
them up. They certainly have good
and sufficient reason to kick. Up
hill farmers are as essential in our
community as the valley farmers
They should be allowed the same

from one-third to one-half of the
total cost of constructing concrete
pavement is for labor after the ma
terials are delivered. This empha-
sizes the importance of efficient or
ganizatiOn and proper equipment.
Failure to take these factors into
consideration frequently results, it
is said, in adding from 10 to 20 per
cent to the cost of a concrete pave
ment.
The most economical method is to
have the work of mixing and pIac-
ing the concrete as nearly continu-
Gus as practicable. The work
should be planned with a primary
view of keeping the mixer going
full time. The drainage structures,
the grading, and the subgrade
should, therefore, be completed
well in advance of the mixer and
provision made for obtaining all of
the necessary materials without de-
lay. A common error is the failure
to make adequate provisions for
delivering water on the work, and
the amount which given stream is
capable of supplying is frequently
overestimated. Il NV eekly News Let

SUBSCRIPTION RATES
FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER "a, 1915.

We are beginning to think the
granting of licenses for running
automobiles should be curtailed to
some extent. Young men under
age, unless different from a large
percentage of them, girls and half
blind men, speed-maniacs and
joy riders should be cut out. Or
if allowed license, and they devel-
ope tendency to outrage it, to take
it away at once. A twenty, thirty,
forty or sixty horse power engine in
a three to four thousand pound
automobile on dirt highways with
out steel rails to hold the thing in
place is no household toy to juggle
with by any means.

mollusks attach themselves to only
particular kind of fish. The mig
ger-head" mussel, for instance,
one of the most prolific and valuable
varieties, is parasitic to river her
ring almost exclusively, ard the par
tial determination of this fish has
had a material effect upon the nat
ural reproduction Of mussels. With
this and similar information as a
guide, the government has now es-
tablished a research laboratory a
few miles from Muscatine, and gone
into the business of mussel farming.
There are three distinct steps in
the actual cultivation of the mussel.
The first step is to obtain a quantity
of undeveloped infant mussels,
which are taken from the mother
Mollusk. A large number of fish
are then caught in nets and trans
ferred into tanks. The baby mus
sells, known at this stage of their
development as glachidia, are re-
leased in the tanks and allowed to
attach themselves to the fish, which
they do in a few minutes by means
of their spined beaks. After an ex-
animation has shown that the young
mussels are firmly attached, the fish
are released into the steam. From
this point the mussel undergoes an
extensive structural change, or re-
building. When nearly all its organs
are developed, the mussel leaves the
fish and sinks to the bottom, fasten-
ing itself to some fixed object and en-
terlng upon its life work of growing
shell.
Several field parties from the
new laboratory are constantly en-
ployed in this work of accelerating
the processes of nature, conserving
probably billions of baby mussels
which otherwise would have no OPP
portunity to develop. Those con.
nected with the station also carry
on Investigations in fresh water bio
logy generally, the intention being
to develop means of conserving and
upbuilding inland fisheries in other
directions, in much the same man.
ner as the experiment stations of
the Department of Agriculture have
developed the farming resources of
the United States.

groves are being developed to add
to the congestion that a prolific sea.
son brings about. And the same can
be said of any other southern and
western product as the acreage of
them broadens out.
As it is the south and west with
no proper chain of markets to dis
pose of a super-abundance of crops,
so it is right here in Vermont and
other of our New England States.
An over production of potatoes, or
grass, or apples, or sugar, floods
the existing markets, and lowers
the prices of these products to
marked degree. Vegetables are
virtually without a market outside
the home towns. This is not be-
cause the country is over.supplied
with these products, even as we
have stated with relation to south
ern and western fruits; but because
the markets are not such as to re-
lieve the congestion when it really
exists. And yet, under these con-
ditions, with no systematic arrange
ment for disposing of an over
production, we talk of intensive
farming, of broadening out, of
adding to the acreage of all these
products, as if the marketing of
them, and the high prices of them,
was thing assured.
One of the first movements be-
fore intensive farming, or a broad
ening out of acreage takes place, as
we look at it, is to establish depots
throughout the country for the
central shipment of all products
raised, and with markets radiating
out from these to supply the general
demand. By doing this freightage
would be lowered, prices equalized,
distribution would cover a much
broader area, and sales so increased
that congestion would not arise
through a prolific yield, or a broad
ening out of acreage in the different
products raised.
But when will these conditions be
brought about?

is anxious to abolish the toll bridges;
but it cannot act without the CO.
operation of New Hampshire. A
state commission Investigated the
subject of these bridges, and urged
their adjustment; but nothing came
of the recommendations. The
bridges are owned for the most
part in New Hampshire, for the
boundary line of that state extends
to the low-water mark on theYer-
mont shore, and that is why the
toll gate and keeper are at the YER
mont end. The toll bridges, like
the vanished toll roads, date from
century or more ago, when towns
and states could not afford the ex-
pense of building them. Private
companies under legislative grants,
and often with the help of lotteries,
raised the necessary amount and
did the work themselves. At first
the tolls were light and the
dividends small, but as travel grew
heavier the income increased, and
these toll bridges have become in
some cases very valuable pieces of
property for their later owners.
They are a burden and nuisance
that the modern traveller resents and
the last toll bridge, like the last
bit of toll road, must soon be made
free. y Hardwick Gazette.
