FLOUR PRICES SOAR
TO HIGHER LEVELS
Hides Also Make Record
Breaking Advance in Line
With Other Commodities

Keeping apace with the bullish tendency
of eastern exchanges, all grades of flour
advanced for the fourth time this week
on Morris avenue yesterday. Birming-
HAMS highest grade of flour is now be-
ing quoted at s1o75 barrel, while the
lowest figure shows $3.50. The advance
yesterday being the fourth for the week,
broke all previous fluctuations of this
commodity on Morris avenue. The ad-
vance came as result of a weeks blus-
ter on the large wheat exchanges. A
PRECEDENT was set by yesterdays market,
with prices going higher as the closing
gong changed in the pit. For the week
in Birmingham flour has advanced on
an average of 81 barrel, while dealers
are looking for further advances.
The only other commodity to register
a change on Morris avenue yesterday
was hides and tallow. Following the lead
set by other commodities, all grades of
hides took on 1 cent a pound, breaking
a record of several months. The add
vance in hides was general throughout
the country,

The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1916-10-09

In previous national elections the
New York Herald has gathered its straw
votes more systematically than any
other paper and its predictions have
frequently been close to the figures of
the actual elections. The Herald is
conducting an extended canvass this
year and it finds that IS per cent of the
Roosevelt strength of 1912 is apparent
ly turning toward Hughes and % per
cent toward Wilson. In New York state
regarded in many elections as the
pivotal state The Herald finds that
Mr.. Wilson is leading Mr.. Hughes at
the present time. The significant part
of this prediction comes from the fact
that the Herald is supporting Hugl es.
From its varied observations the Herald
comes to the conclusion that the only
positive assertion that the returns in
hand seem to warrant is that the con
test at this stage looks like one of the
closest in history. This is figuring very
fine when we consider the narrow mar
gin by which Cleveland carried New
York state when he defeated James G..
Blaine, the electoral vote of New York
being enough to give the victory to
Cleveland.

Vermont Distinguishes Herself.
{ Boston Transcript

AIfOHltiI 1IdHStTlDi.J
Vermont has distinguished herself
this year in the production of soldier,
and apples. As for her soldiers, they
were among the first on the Rio
tirande, both in date of arrival and
in military quality With regard to ar
pies, the state excels both in quantity
and quality. The crop estimates of the
department of agriculture show that
the yield of apples in the Green noun
tain state this year is not only one
of the heaviest on record. but is far
above that of the surrounding states
s. per cent of the maximum as com
pared with % per cent last year, and
as compared with - per cent this wear
in Massachusetts, 90 per cent in New
York, 6S per cent in New Hampshire
and GO per cent in Maine From all
over Vermont, indeed. come reports
of record apple crop. On Isle La
Motto, in Lake Champlain, $4,000 bar
rels of apples have been gathered. Al.
olson county reports crop greater
in quantity and better in quality than
ever before gathered. One grower, in
Bridgeport, has taken 1000 barrels
from his trees; every barrel goes to

rel, it will be seen that there may be
a fortune in an apple orchard as we'll
as III gold mine. In the meantime. as
the Western apple crop is accounted
light, we may congratulate Vermont
on degree of prosperity from
source which is in no sense linked
with war or bloodshed. The whole
East may also be congratulated, for
Vermont apples, as we'll as those from
all the rest of New England, are high
~ endowed with that snap and flavor
which is so singularlv and exasperat-
ingly absent from the northwestern
apples with which the market has
lately been supplied.

President Hustis of the Boston &
Maine railroad, in his annual report re
Gently published, speaks of the effect
of the increasing use of automobiles on
passenger traffic. The number of mo
tor vehicles in the state served by the
Boston & Maine has increased 81 per
cent in the past three years. Accord
ing to his statement there is one auto
mobile for every 80 persons in New
hampshire, one to - in Vermont, one
to 81 in Maine, and one to 80 each in
Massachusetts and New York. Vermont
has heretofore been rated as the lead
ing state of New England III the pro
portion of automobiles to people. 1t i,
interesting to note that the automobile
IS more generally used in the so-calle(
rural states than in the ones thicklN
settled.

Steelheads in West River.
bennington Banner.)

In Wimdham county an experiment
Is being made in planting steelhead
trout in West river. This stream is
some fifty miles in length and there
has been practically no fishing in it
for hundred years. In early HISTORY
1t was salmon stream, but the dams
and the sewage along the Connecticut
killed the salmon out long ago. For
few miles along the lower course Of
the river and in the setback from the
Connecticut are bass and pike, but
these do not 90 up where the water is
swift6r. The steelhead experiment
will be watched with interest. If the
steelhead will thrive in West river
they ought to do well in other streams
where the native trcut nave been
driven out by poorer fish and by the
sawdust, sewage and other refuse
which has spoiled the fishing in so
many of the larger streams. There are
enough streams in Vermont to furnish
all the frosn water fish wanted in the
state If the problems of stoo1iaI with
the right fish ma proper conservation
can be solved

We will let them have enough Nuts to

The next day Chippie and Gippie
were sitting outside of their Factory
which was in some Woods where they
lived. There were many wonderful
Trees for hiding the Nuts which they
were going to sell. Soon along came

Good morning, Squirrels said Gip-
pie and Chippie.
Good morning. chartered the
Squirrels. We're going to work for

they jumped from Tree to Tree and
had fine old Scamper before getting
down to Work. All day long they
looked for Nuts and the next day. as
Glpple and Chippie had sent out No
uces about their Factory--from all
over the Country side came Squirrels
to get Nuts for their Families.

and all the Squirrels used to get their
Nuts from Chippie and Gippie.

Yes, indeed, said Gippie and Chip

and all who come to get their Nuts
from us are invited. viii you Gomez
And all the Squirrels shouted:
Yesr Such racket was heard
around the Factory when they shouted
Yes that the Fairy Queen came fly

come, too, and bring Ybab's Fairy Or

The threatened railroad strike, the
New York traction strike, and now
the milk strike, all involve the same
principle The situation Is we'll sum
married. by the New York World, as
follows:
In a conflict between the dairymen
ard milk distributors the city gets the
kind of blows that falls cruelty on the
wcakcst-the children and the sick.
"New York 5 normal aeed is 100000
quarts of milk day. If strike on
the part of $1,000 dairymen organized
to fight the big milk distributing com
panics cuts the city's daily milk sup
ply to only 100000 quarts it is going to
be impossible to guarantee anything
like a proper share to babies and
hospitals.
"Again, as in the case of the trac-
tion troubles, the climax of a conflict
between workers or producers and
those who seek to control their labor
or output is war on the innocent.
1.-The public is not in a position to
decide ut Il glance whether the rights
OF the immediate dispute are with
dairymen or distributors. Some day it
hopes to learn why a quart of milk
for which the farmer gets AZ cents
has to be handled and rehandled by
so many proft-taking agencies that by
the time it gets to the consumers it
costs 10 or II cents. Some dag it hopes
to learn whether, with genuine compe
tition between milk distributing con
Germs, such delivery prices could be
for a single day maintained.
Pending such demonstrations, in
which it is keenly interested, the pub
lie, however, is neither prosecuting
milk distributors nor driving dairymen
out of business 1t desires to be just to
both.
1.-The greater the outrage when
dairymen and distributors raise the
10 arbitration cry at moment when
their differences threaten friendly
public with serious privation. Nobody
for an instant believes that there is i'll
the milk situation, any more than
there was in the traction row, single
issue that could not be readily met and
settled by arbitration.
"rhe conviction, indeed, rapidly
grows that there is no reason why SOW
ereign law-making communities should
sit helpless whenever obstinacy in one
camp or another chooses to tie up util- f,
tiles or cut off necessities. The public
here and elsewhere in this country is
beginning to see that being fair to
everybody has got to include being
fair to itself. 1t will presently be
found urging that fact upon its legfs-
latures.
