Try to Explain to Farmers.
Randolph Herald and News.)


The Barton Monitor presents some
interesting figures and asks per-
tlnent question. Government reports
show that ON seven principal farm prod
ucts, the prices paid in Vermont were
materially lower in 1915 than in
four other New England states. Com
pared with New Hampshire, the Yer
mont farmer received $40 less per ton
Tor has hay, five cents per dozen for his
eggs, three cents per pound less for his
chlckens, 6O cents less per hundred for
hogs, $3.50 per hundred less for his
beef cattle, 80 cents per hundred less for
his veal and one and half cents per
pound less for his maple sugar And
farmers of Maine, Massachusetts and
Rhode Island received materially more
than those of New Hampshire. The
Monitor asks if the reason is not a
monopoly in the buying This very
likely may have an influence in certain
localities where buyers are few. A
more potent reason is that consuming
markets are scarce in Vermont, and
that the cost of the long haul comes out
OF the producer who has to compete in
Boston and other centers with those liv
ing nearer. The Vermont producer has
some compensating advantages, how
ever, not to speak of the great one OF
living in the best state in the Union.

Lucius Sergius Cataline was a we'll
known Roman citizen who invented the
modern home-talent villain, although
lacking the string moustache and chron-
&c throat trouble of the latter. He was
born of a patrician family and brought
up III home which had every luxury
except the long-winded gas meter, yet
he became one of the crookedest men
in the Roman Empire and died brut-
al and unpleasant death.
Catalina was q man of great natural
talent and might have succeeded in a
business way, but instead of opening a
general store or a frst-class livery
barn, he engaged in politics, which has
been the ruin of so many men who
could not earn $3.50 a day in any other
way. One Of his opponents was Cicero,
the silver-tongued orator, who was
running for consul ON the prohibition
ticket. Cicero was a fine man. who linn
tied himself strictly to one wife. and
when they got through counting the
votes Catalina could not be seen for

An Editors Troubles.
Bradford ODinion)


1t is an old story, but one that needs
repeating now and again. 1t is the age
long struggle of the newspaper publish
er to get his head above the whirlpools
of free advertising. The Colebrook
Sentinel covers the subject forcefully
and we are copying it that our readers
may think it over the next time they
are tempted to ask for more than a reas-
enable amount of this kind of service:
Nobody ever thinks of going to the
coal dealer and asking him to send a
little coal up to the church or lodge
room to heat up the building for a
meeting or entertainment. Nor does
one ask the ice cream man to donate
lee cream, nor does one suggest the
electric company furnish lights for the
occasion.
But people often express surprise
and resentment if the newspaper man
asks remuneration for an advertising
notice relative to aforesaid meeting or
entertainment. If the coal dealer or
the lee cream man, or the electric light
company should voluntarily donate said
coal, ice cream or lights, the recipient
thereof would be exceedingly grateful.
and would probably instruct the news
paper man to run free notice telling
the public all about the generosity of
aforesaid coal dealer or electric light
company. But nobody runs notice eu-
logizing the generosity of the newspa-
per man. For free advertising, espec-
tally of the reading notice brand,
which by the way is the most expen-
sive in time and labor, is taken for
granted as the natural gift.
The editor very gladly gives a GER
tain amount of complimentary space
to charitable and other organizations
weekly. He gives this freely, to the
exact limit of space available. This
complimentary service means work for
the compositor and work for the make
Up man. 1t is work absolutely with
out slightest hope of reward And there
are IN this community persons so de-
void of appreciation of courtesies ex-
tended, that not only do they fail to
express gratitude for favors shown,
but on occasions feel it incumbent
upon themselves to bawl out the edi-
tor if perchance he does not allow them
quota of space they consider their ma
tural right. If the butcher should pre-
sent them with fine juicy steak Fri
day evening would these same persons
visit his shop on Saturday morning and
roast him to a turn because the steak
was not sufficiently large for the en-
tire family.
The newspaper man s space is Just
as much his stock in trade as the coal
dealer S coal, the ice cream man s ice
cream, the electric light company s elec-
tricity or the butcher meats. The
The average man never thinks of the
hours of toil-downright soul sweating
toll 1t takes to get out paper. He
never thinks of the worries, trials and
tribulations every editor must under
go. Every line of type in newspaper
represents labor that costs money, and
there is lot of money tied up in type,
presses and other equipment. Paper
and ink, rent, heat, light, power and
insurance must be paid out of the in
come derived from the newspaper
man S stock in trade.

about his second wife, but as he was

Stop, Look, Listen.'

A new peril in travelling is brought
to attention by a notice the Illinois
Central Railroad company is sending
out. 1t sets forth the fact that the mum
Der of automobile accidents at grade
crossings is constantly increasing, and
requests suggestions intended to reduce
their aggregate, which the company
promises to consider thoroughly as it is
eager to do its full part Apparently
1T has not much hope from this source,
however, and it emphasizes the neces-
sity for revived observance of the old
rule in earlier railroad days, when
Stop, Look, Listen,'' were warning
words to be needed wherever high
way crossed the tracks.
The company gives a little informa-
ton as an accompaniment to its formal
notice. 1t says that within the last 90
days Is persons have been killed and
&c injured in automobile grade cross
ing accidents ON its lines, and that
Ipther railroads have had similar exper-
saenees. 1t adds what seems to be a salu-
tary caution, that all railroad grade
crossings are dangerous, and that the
crossings used extensively show really
the lowest proportion of accidents. It
IS the outlying crossing, the least used,
which gives the largest proportion of
collisions with automobiles.
Unless someone can devise a feasible
corrective for this trouble there seems
to be no better rule than to put the re-
sponsibility on the motorist and to warn
him that he takes his own risk when
he uses the grade crossing, that he must
STOP, LOOK and LISTEN just as the
carriage driver used to stop and look
and listen when railroads were newer.
1t is patiently impossible to separate
grades everywhere. The Illinois Cen

George +. Crowel!, whose death took
place this morning, had lived so much
in retirement for years that he was not
well-linown to the younger generation,
but his career was one of unusual in
terest. He was the pioneer of all Amer
lean publishers in establishing a paper
devoted to the interests of the home.
The Household attained circulation
.of over 10000 when it was printed in
Brattleboro 30 years ago-big figures
for those days-and it carried its mes
sage of instruction and uplift into every
state of the Union. We wonder what
some of the young men of today would
think if they tried to follow the course
which Mr.. Crowell pursued in early
manhood before he found his life work,
and when his ambition was to pay off
the mortgage on the home farm in Hop
kinton, n. II. To save $50 a month out
of a salary of $50 meant a personal
sacrifice that only a courageous soul
would be willing to endure. Mr.. Crowell
was man of kindly heart, of fine lite
rary taste, and those who knew him in
timately will mourn the death of very
sincere and genuine man and friend. E
