LOOK AFTER FEET OF SHEEP
While Some Breeds Are More suseep-
tible to Trouble Than Others,
None Are Exempt.

II is important that the feet OF the
sheep should be looked after daily at
this season of the year. because dur.
ing the winter months many OF the
sheep pens may have become foul. Or
the yards in which the sheep have
been running have been muddy, and
the continual tramping In foul pens or
muddy yards tends to produce sore

0PEN-AIR SERVICE.

No person can go into a temple
erected to the Creator, whether it be
a cathedral or a hut in the wilder
ness, without being in some measure
blessed and bettered The very place
inspires reverent thoughts, and what
ever of good there is in the heart is
touched by an unseen power which is
nowhere SO effective as where divine
worship is in progress. For, while a
church may be the poorest place in
the world to serve God, it is the best
place in the world for God to serve us
for His voice to speak into our
hearts, for His Spirit to touch our
spirits, and for thoughts of His Good
ness and Mercy to awake within us
the sleeping things that are apt to be
the best part of us.

Mr.. +. Il. A. Schilling, Jr.,
Marietta, Ca,
Sir
The receipt is acknowledged of
your letter of July 20, 1916, relative
to the difficulties being experienced
by farmers of the south in making
shipments of cotton to neutral coun-
tries of Europe.
In reply you are informed that the
Department keenly appreciates the
difficulties surrounding the exporta-
ton of cotton from this country and
is endeavoring to do all that it pro-
perly can to relieve the situation.
While it is not possible to out
line the exact methods to be pursued
by the Department, you may rest as
sured that strong representations
looking toward the protection of the
interest," of this important commo-
dity and those connected with it are
being and will be made. Further
than this assurance, the Department
would not care to indicate the method
at this time
There are enclosed copies of the
British Order in Council of March
II, 1915, and the Departments re-
ply thereto. The British Order in
Council is still the subject of dip
lomatic discussion between this Gov
ernement and the Government of
Great Britain.
Realizing the limitations of the
market for cotton arising from the
war situation, the Department has
from time to time called for reports
of the market for cotton in foreign
countries from it's consular officers
stationed abroad with a view to in
dictate any possible openings for cot
ton that might relieve the situation
due to the decreased expectations to
Europe
Copies of these reports may be OBJ
tanned from the Bureau of Foreign
and Domestic Commerce of the De-
partment of Commerce.

Your obedient servant,
For the Secretary of State:

throughout the country who call at
the Senate Office Building to be
shown through it. This building is
said to be the greatest office build
ing in the world. 1t is majestically
imposing. The caucus room and the
room of banking and currency are
magnificiently finished; they are
strikingly interesting and elicit many
complimentary observations from
visitors as they go through them.
Georgians coming to Washington
and wishing to be shown through
this building will be highly graft
fled and delightfully."- pleased, if,
when calling, they will ask for Mr..

fectly at home as he takes you
through this wonderfully interesting
building.
Senator Ollie James, of Kentucky,
ices democratic victory in the next
national conquest. The Senator has
travelled extensively in the United
States since the adjournment of Con-
gress and thinks that Mr.. Wilson
has the confidence of the people ir-
respective of party. The cautious
ness and mature elaboration with
which he handles complicated and in
tricate matters is becoming we'll
known, and the country is Just natur-
ally reposing great confidence in the
President. A new era of prosperity
has just set in, demands for labor
are becoming general, almost imper-
ative. The United States has more
gold now than it ever had at any
other period of its existence and more
than any nation Of the world ever
enjoyed, except on one occasion when
the amount held by England sur
passed the amount held by the United
States by small margin.
Preliminary work for strengthen
ing the national defense was begun
by President Wilson Immediately af-
ter his return from Corinth, New
Hampshire. Sec'y. Daniels gave the
President a general outline of pro-
posals for improvements to be made
by the navy and arrangements were
made for an early conference with
Sec'y. Garrison regarding extensive
improvements in the army. Com
prehensive plans are being prepared.
1t is said at the White House that
the President will take steps as early
as possible for securing the material
necessary to present a complete and
exhaustive plan to Congress in De-
cember. The President has already
decided that the defense of the ma
ton should be strengthened and will
determine upon details after confer
Gnce with the heads of the war and
navy department and the Chairman
of the military and naval affairs com
mittees of the senate and house.
Then he will take up the question of
providing the necessary money for
the expected increased expenditures.
The President is anxious for the
approval of Congress in whatever
plans he may suggest. Not only
does he seek the hearty acquiesence
Of his Cabinet, but also that of Con.
gress and he sincerely hopes that
politics will cut no ice in the con.
sideration of the subject.

LAuNDRY IMPROVEMENTS
Extensive Changes in the Plant Own
ed by John n. Powers

While some of the minor details
have not been carried out, the larger
portion of the changes that have been
in progress at the Bennington Sani-
tary laundry on North street and own
ed by John H. Powers are completed
The addition of extra floor space, the
new equipment an dhte interior ar
rangements combine TO make the
plant one of the most complete OF its
kind anywhere outside of the larger
cities.
In making the changes particular
attention was given to the facilities
for light and air Nentilators have
been installed which provide such ex-
celIant circulation that the damp,
stuffy atmosphere common in most
laundries is conspicuous by it's abb
sence. Out side of the machinery all
of the equipment is movable so that
the sanitary condition OF the plant
may be maintained at all times.
The new equipment is of the latest
pattern 1t includes a steam drying
press by means of which steam is
forced through garments at consider
able pressure not only resulting in
better ironing but thoroughly cleans
ing the fabric. A rotary dryer heated
by steam permits the drying of under
wear. towels, etc, in such a manner
that the garments are as fuzzy as
when first purchased.
Mangles have been replaced by a
large ironing machine which is also
steam heated and which is guaran-
teed not to injure the most delicate
fabric.
improvements have also been made
in the Office and when few odds and
ends are provided for the outfit win
be a model laundry.

ICE FORMED ON BERRIES
George Hummer Lost 5000 Tomato
Plants-5eets Frozen Close to
Ground.

Ice formed last night in unprotected
localities and it is more than prob
able that large amount of damage
to gardens and fruit has resulted
Just how much destruction had been
caused could not be determined TINS
morning but the loss to gardeners
and horticulturists must be heavy
AT the farm of George Hummer,
one of the largest growers of garden
truck in this vicinity, the damage
was heavy. Tender vegetation such
as beets was frozen close TO the
ground and of the 5000 tomato plants
recently set out, only a few, If any,
1t is believed will survive.
One market gardener who raises
strawberries left a water sprayer in
operation during the night in the
hope that the moisture would keep
off the frost. This morning he found
ice hanging4to the green berries.
The weather has been so cold dur
ing the month that planting has been
delayed and but few farmers and
gardeners put in seeds early enough
so that the sprouts have come
through the ground. Whatever
growth has materialized is in a large
measure destroyed.
The temperature has remained low
during the entire day and the wealth
er bureau reports do not promise
much of change Of conditions for
tonight. es,
On freshly ploughed ground crust
fully half an inch thick was formed
by the freeze Which would indicate
that most tender vegetation must
have sunered severely if II is not
completely ruined.3

TO LOCATE FISH HATCHERY
Expert Fish culturist Looks Over
Possible Sites in This Vicinity.

p. S. Casselman of Dorset, a fish
culturist who has been employed ex-
tensively by the national government
made a visit to this end OF the coun-
ty Wednesday, under instructions
from Commissioner ]. w. Titcomb
to investigate possible sites for a
state hatchery.
Mr.. Casselman, accompanied by
County Game Warden Il. S. Higgins
made a tour of Bennington and yici-
nifty but found no springs which
provided the amount of water that
will be required for the proposed
hatchery From Bennington they
went to SALISBURY where one site
was found that met with the experts
approval. This spring, or collection
of springs, is what is locally known
as the Duck pond located about
two miles from Shaftsbury station.
The overflow from the springs runs
into the Warm brook and in many re-
spects the situation would be good
one for hatchery purposes. Mr..
Casseman said that there was a suf-
ficient flow of water from the springs
and the close proximity of Warm
brook would make it possible TO
utilize the water from the streams
while trout were being raised to the
lingering stage
In Mr.. Casselman's opinion the
'Duck pond" is the only supply in
this end Of the county that viii meet
requirements. He will return here
in June for the purpose of making
tests,
