'When the Grange lecturers of the
six New England states recently con-
vened in Vermont they were treated to
an address by Miss Hannah Halonen
lecturer of Wardshoro Grange and
butter maker of the farmers creamery
IN that town. She is very keenwitted
and has a great fund has q great fund
of practical ideas. Miss Halonen is
the only woman buttermaker in a
creamery in New England, if not in
the United States. She makes over
10000 pounds Of butter a year and a
great deal of it is sold by parcel post
In Massachusetts.
"Miss Halonen was educated III a
creamery school in Finland, and came
to America Is years ago and has been
at Wardsboro Is years. Miss Halonen
said in Finland people had the i'm
preston that all one had had to do in
America was to walk along the streets
and pick up money. She has never had
the heart to write back and tell them
it is not so. New England would ben
eft greatly by finding out what 7eo
! pie who come here from foreign coun
| tries are prepared to do. In her OWL
case, not having friends here and I'M
able to speak English, she was obliged
! t. Ia housaworl when she had Il dlplo
ma from one of the government cream
erv schools of Finland
