Ray talked to Chief Koch yesterday

WAR PROSPERITY.


A report on industrial conditions in
Vermont credits war orders with the
present prosperity in that state. The
Windsor Machine Co. paid dividends
aggregating 125 percent in July and
October. The Robin Hood Powder
Co. secured large orders. and the ma
chine companies in Springfield and
Rutland are working on shrapnel
Another machine company that had
an offer Of a 100000 order for. shrap-
mel last summer, declined 1t because
women are the principal owners OF
the stock and opposed the manufac-
ture Of war munitions. But as bust
ness grew duh In regular lines and
there appeared q necessity for reduc-
ing the force. another contract that
was offered was quickly accepted and
the works are now running overtime
Numerous small shops throughout
the state are working on munition
contracts which have been parceled
out to them by the regular contrac-
tors and the newspapers seldom hear
of it, but the machine shops of the
state. big and little, are. practically
all of them, working on contracts for
some sort Of supplies tor the allies.
The wooden mills on the Winooski
river and in the valley of the Otta-
quechee are "fuIl up" with orders and
for additional help. The
canning factories are going full tilt
and sending their products abroad as
fast as made. The hydro-electric con-
Germs are pushed to the limit to sup
ply the extra power demanded.

THE BETTER THINGS.
It is better to lose with conscience
clean
Than to lose by trick unfair;
1t is better to fail to know you've
been,
Whatever the prize was square,
Than TO c,aim the Joy of far-off
goal
And the cheers Of the stander-by,
And to know deep down in your al
most soul
A cheat you must live and die.
Who wins by trick can take the
prize,
And at first may think it sweet,
But many a day in the future lies
When he'll wish he had met defeat
For the man who lose shall be glad
at heart
And walk with his head up high,
While his cenqueror knows he
must play the part
or cheat and living lie
The prize seems fair when the
prize is on,
But save it is truly won
You win hate the thing when the
crowds are gone.
For 1t stands a false deed done.
And its better you should never
reach your goal
Than ever success to buy
AT the price of knowing down In
your soul
That your glory is all lie.
Edward A. Guest.

MILK As A FOOD.

The value of milk as food Is not
appreciated as 1t should be. Many
adults consider IL beverage rather
than an easily digestible and highly
nutritious article Of food. They do
not realize that q glass of milk con-
|tains approximately the same amount
|of nutritive material as good slice OF
beef, a quarter of loaf of bread, or
two large eggs.
1t has been truthfully- stated that
we live not upon what we eat, but
upon what we digest Milk is more
completely digested and utilized than
anv other article of food. Far more
easily digested than such animal foods
as meat, fish, etc, in place Of Which
milk products find their logical place
in the diet.
Not only Is milk more readily and
completely digested, but the same
amount OF nutritive material can be
obtained for less money IN milk than
in other animal foods, according to
Dairy and Food Commissioner W. B.
Barney.
A table is being sent out by Mr..
Barney showing the relative values OF
a number Of common foods as compar-
ed with milk. In the quantities stated
each contains the same amount OF
nutritiye material as one quart OF milk
The cereal products are. IN the raw
state, the cheapest food stuns We can
buy, but many OF the products manu-
ia ctured from these cereals would not
be so generally used were their cost
compared with milk Consider, for
example, the widely advertised pre-
pared breakfast foods. It takes from
six to nine large hefpings (approxi-
mately one package) OF many OF these
prepared foods to contain as much
nourishment as one quart OF milk or
three quarters Of pine OF cream with
which they are served at the break
fast table. The quart OF MIX costs
the housewife about eight cents,
whereas the breakfast food requires
the expenditure OF from ten to twenty
cents for a package. While the raw
cereal products such as corn meal.
-four. etc, are indeed cheap foods for
Furnishing energy, they do not con-
tain appreciable amounts OF protein.
On the other hand. more than rs per

milk consists Of this necessary mater

that could be used for this trouble, but

OF $50 men who graduated from the
agricultural course at Ames, last
year, only twelve are not engaged in
agricultural pursuits. Fifty are farm
ing and fifty are teaching agriculture
in high schools or colleges. That IS
surely a good showing, says the Bur
lington Hawk-Eye. But really nothing
less could be expected of the famous
agricultural college OF Iowa. Young
men may go to college. and take
same sort of course, just because
their families insist upon it that the
sons spend a certain time at college.
1t is different with agriculture. The
men who take that up, know exactly
what they want, and they work hard
as rule, and are bent upon getting
all that can be gotten in that course.
Some even stay on and do post-gradu-
ate work. 1t must be pleasure for
the professors to work with class,
of men who are keeping their minds
upon the work in hand, and who are
always interested In that work. and
who are ultimately an inspiration to
the teacher, just as the right teacher
inspires his students.

80 per cent In number Of machines
has been accompanied by An increase
OF IL per cent in fatalities.
Perhaps moro reliable compare.
son. from the statistictan's point OF
view, can be made between the in
crease in number OF automobiles in
use and the increase in the rate per
100000 population for deaths caused
by them. This is because, with given
number OF machines In use in a given
area, the fatalities due to them will
tend to be proportional 10 the popula-
ton Of that area When the compari-
son is made on this basis, it appears
that five year Increase Of 775 per
cent In number OF machines has been
accompanied by an increase of 25S
per cent-from IL to 4.3 per 100000
population-in the death rate resulting
from automobile fatalities. Similarly,
a one year increase Of 80 per cent in
OF automobiles has taken place
along with an increase Of only 10 per
the death rate charged to them.
One cacse of this proportional de-
crease In the dcstructiveness of the
automobile is undoubtedly to be found
in reduction in average annual mile
age per machine: but, after due weight
Ia given this factor, and . suitable
is allowed for possible error
resulting from inaccuracy In the esti-
mated portion of the automobile sta

AUTOMOBILE FATALITIES.


Is the deadliness of the automobile
increasing or decreasing?
This question seems to be answered
II very conclusive manner by the
bureau of the census, In making public
some preliminary mortality statistics
for the year 1914, which indicate that
during the five years from 1909 to
1914 the number OF automobiles in use
in the United States Increased more
than twice as rapidly as the number OF
fatalities caused by them.
At the close OF 1909, according to
figures compiled by the National Auto
mobile Chamber of Commerce, of New
York City, from state registration re-
ports, due allowance being made for
duplicate registratio the number OF
automobiles in use in the United States
was approximately 100000; by the
close OF 1913 1t had risen to 1,270, 900;
and a year later, at the end of 1914,
it was 1.75O, 900.
In the meantime the number OF
deaths due to automobile accidents and
injuries increased from s32 in the
INSTRUMENTATION area in 1909, con-
tanning Sc per cent Of the population Of
the United States, to 1923 in the same
area in 1914; and the increase from
1913 to 1914, for the registration area
as constituted in 1913, then containing
l65 per cent OF the population of the
country, was from 2,4SS to 2,795.
Thus a five year increase of IT'S per
cent-accepting as reliable the figures
compiled by the National Automobile
Chamber of Commerce-in number OF
machines has been accompanied by an
increase OF 315 per cent in automobile
fatalities; and one year increase of
