ALFALFA IN VERMONT.
County Agent Tiffany of Franklin Coun-
ty Gave Demonstration.

A little over one year ago 26 alfalfa
demonstrations were started in Franklin
county. To-day there is a successful
alfalfa plot in every one of the demon
STATIONS. The plan was to demonstrate
just what methods must be used to make
a success of alfalfa in this county and it
has been done There were eight differ
ent plots in all and with but two excep-
tions the same plot is leading in each
demonstration.
The demonstrations have proven that
several things are absolutely necessary
for successful alfalfa production in north
ern Vermont.
lst. The soil must be lined In this
work the soil was tested and enough lime
applied to meet the requirement
ID incubation must be provided. The
pure culture furnished by the federal de-
psrtment of agriculture was used and
produced the incubation in every case
To SOW alfalfa without incubation is to
invite failure from the verv heninning.
Sd. The Grimm rarictr i the best. In
every demonstration it has ou.classed the
common = lar that the extra cost does
not seem a con asa ration wien results 81,
considered.
4th. Both spring and summer seeding
was tried and the summer seeding shows
much the better in nearly every case.
In order to acqusint the farmers with
these facts and allow them to Judge for
themselves series Of field meetings was
held at the demonstration plots during
the month of June. Nineteen meetings
were held with a total attendance Of pa
At these meetings the farmers learned
the necessity Of lining and OF inoculat-
ing and using Grimm seed sown from
July Is to Aug. l. Over loo farmers
have secured the services OF the county
agent to assist them in starting from one
20 five acres Of alfalfa this year or next.
With this number Of men putting in the
crop according TO the best known meth
ods, alfalfa growing il sure to receive a
boom in Franklin county.

Ideas Best Business Assets.

In the August American Magazine q
prominent business man describes the
way in which originality and radical
ideas won him n salary OF 100000 and
promotion TO corporation president aitel
starting as handy boy in bank. He
says;
From my first job as handy boy about
a bank in my home town at a wage OF
fifteen dollars a month, up 10 my present
position as president OF a corporation at
sixty thousand dollars year, there is a
trail so clear that to-day can almost
check OIL every step in 1t. For every
step is an idea.
THE revelation came TO me--when ]
was still young enough to build on reve-
lations-that ideas are the most valua-
BILE possessions in the business world. !
have never had occasion 70 change my
mind. Where my associates have saved
money | have saved ideas; where they
have invested money | have invested
ideas. And my rewards have always
been greater than my expectations.
II was business adviser TO dozens OF
large firms. Some OF them were swing
ing more business than their capital per
mitted and consequently were riding Tor
a fall. Half dozen OF my customers
were trying to do more business than
their brain capacity allowed. Some men
can run tifty-thousand dollar corpora
ton successfully, but will leave only
crashes and ashes in their wake when
they attempt to direct two-hundred-
thousand dollar concern, just as some
women might run side street board

"Atter | had spent four strenuous
years with this trust company, a Chi

| raised my institutions deposits from

RURAL SCHOOL TERM.
Actual Length Is Far Less Than the
Theoretical

Theoretical
ny J. l.. McBrien, school extension
agent. United States bureau Of educa
ton, Washington, d, c.
To get clear understanding Of thi'
question Of the length Of the rural school
term We must distinguish between The
theoretical or possible school term and
the actual school term. BY the theoreti'
cal or possible rural school term We mean
the legal rural school term, that is, the
time school is legally kept open TO all
rural pupils who may desire TO attend
school in any one year. BY the actual
school term We mean the actual time
on the average. that all rural pupils en-
rolled ON the school register actually at
tend school during the year,
In theory, the north Atlantic states
have rural school term OF 1897 days,
but in practice. because OF the poor aver
age daily attendance, the actual rural
school term is less than 100 days. In
theory, In the south Atlantic states IL Is
lla.5 days, but in practice, because of
the poor average daily attendance u Is
less than so days; in theory, in the south
central states, il Is ll7.6 days, but in
practice, because OF the poor average
daily attendance, IL is only % days; in
theory, in the north central states IL is
1897 days, but in practice, because of
the poor average daily attendance, IL is
only 100 days; in theory, in western
states il is l45 days, but in practice, be-
cause of the poor average daily attend
ance, il is only l0l5 days.
IL must be remembered that these fig
ures deal only with the average length
of the rural school term as based upon
the enrolment Of pupils in rural schools.
No attempt is made TO take into eonsid-
Grafton the large number OF rural pupils
who should have been enrolled but who
were not because of a lax enforcement
of compulsory attendance laws or an en-
tire lack OF such laws, or on account OF
ignorant or selfish parents who kept
their children out of school for the pur.
pose OF coming their own flesh and blood
into few paltry dollars-or worse still,
allowed their children to grow up in idle
ness and ignorance.

Newsdealer Refuses to "Sell Filth to the
Public"

The editorial page Of the August Won
ans Home Companion, prints an unusual
letter from a Philadelphia newsdealeI
who makes the following comment OIL
certain magazines, declaring that he re
fuses to sell filth to the public"
Being newsdealer," he says, u have
regretted that it should be necessary for
me, as a part of my business to pass
along to the public the style of magazina
to which you refer. 1t means simply
this: ! am amking money by selling
filth to the reading public; the magazines
which they purchase from me will in
eyitably lower their morals and con-
tribute to the degradation of the com.
munity. Observation only impresses the
fact upon ones mind that the young
people are, in the great majority, the
buyers of the unclean type of fiction. For
this reason | have ordered the news com
pany to cut certain magazines from my
list. ! am unwilling to shoulder the re.
sponsibility of purveying evil.
ut seems to me the same reason may
be adopted in the case of the moving
picture exhibitor. The man who makes
his living and supports his wife and chill
dren by degrading the morals of his
had best pause. Am | my
brothers keeperr is as severely peril
nent a question to-day as ever"
