ment. There is one thing that Vermont
ers may be certain of, and that is that
Colonel Reeves places the welfare of the
men under him in first position, and that
all the officers OF the regiment make il
their business to see that the men are
properly cared for.
If one were to follow Colonel Reeves up
and down the company ranks on the
weekly inspection, in all probability he
would hear him ask one man out of every
squad on an average if he were getting
plenty of good, nourishing food to eat,
and if he had any complaints to make.
The men have been informed that each
and every complaint, no matter how triv-
ial 1t may seem, viii be promptly inves-
tigated, and, if found based on fact, cor
rection would be Immediately forthcom-
ing. Unfounded complaints would make
trouble for their maker. - st. Adams

How Clouds Are CoIored,

The color of cloud depends on the
manner in which the sunlight falls
upon 1t and the position of the OBJ
server. 1t will be noticed that high
clouds are always white or light In
color, and this Is because the light by
which they are seen is reflected from
the under surface by the numberless
drops Of moisture which go to form
the cloud. Heavy rain clouds. on the
other hand, are found much nearer the
earth. and so the light falls on them
more directly from above, giving a sil-
yer lining to the cloud, though the I'M
der surface appears black, owing to
the complete reflection and absorption
of the light by the upper layers. Seen
from above by an observer in a bal
loon the blacklist rain clouds appear Of
the most dazzling brilliant white.

u. S. INVESTIGATES
PANAMA LAND GRAB
Secretary Lansing Admits that valdes
Is Under
Fire,

Washington, Aug. 22.--Robert Lans.
ing, secretary of state, yesterday ad-
mitted that an investigation is being
made of charges that Ramon Valdes,
newly elected president of Panama, was
instrumental in getting land conces-
sion estimated at about 10000 acres, for
la Spaniard named Fernandez.
1t has been reported that the United
States may not recognize Valdes because
of alleged frauds and coercion in his
election
1t is understood that the justice de-
partment is conducting the inquiry for
the state department.
Fernandez is agent at Havana for jap
anese silk firms. The grant of land is
on the Atlantic seaboard of Panama di-
rectly opposite San Miguel bay on the
Pacific side. 1t is desired to know
whether there is any significance in Fer
nandez's japanese connections, since it
is said the land obtained might make
good naval base.

Soldiers Are Well Fed.

"'There is no mistake, the food is ex-
cellent,' writes home a member of the
First Vermont infantry, now encamped
at Eagle Pass, Texas; and he gives a
sample menu of the dinner, as follows
we have iced tea or lemonade bread
and butter, potatoes and meat, and also
soup; then for a big topoff, as the boys
call it, a big plate of good pudding.
Surely good enough for anyone, and far
better, in fact, than richer foods for ex-
istence in that climate. That there is
plenty of it is further revealed by the
same writer, who declares: After you
have been around the second time, you
are pretty well filled up The suppers
are not quite so ample, but they are sub
stantial for An evening meal, consisting
of coffee, bread and butter, potatoes and
meat, and either apple sauce, prunes, or
peaches Relatives and friends of the

en- to our joint picnic and field day hello
Saturday, the 10th. 1t was particularly
gratifying to see the interest, taken in
the stock judging contest, as total OF
AZ entries indicates. ! am sure that we
all learned something about Judging
cows and hope that another year will
see an even bigger demonstration carried
on. The speaking in the afternoon was
certainly of the highest order and the
county agent hopes that the messages of
the speakers concerning the possibilities
of our counties and our state through
the study of better agricultural methods
and all kinds of cooperation were thor
oughly appreciated and were taken home
to be worked out in the various commu-
mites. Such occasions as these cannot
help but be a boost to our agriculture.
Harvesting operations have cut down
the attendance of a few of the meetings
held earlier in the week, but it is hoped
that everyone will keep watch of the
notices about the soy bean demonstra-
tions, which will begin a little before
the first of September. and will take the
opportunity of being present at the dem
onstrstions and learning something
about this valuable leguminous crop.
This weeks program is as follows:
Monday: East Calais farm visit. Mon
day evening: Meeting at Middlesex Cen
ter village.
Tuesday: Scoring pigs in the pig club
contest in Montpelier. Tuesday after
noon: Grange picnic at Caledonia park
Wednesday; East Montpelier scoring
pigs in pig club contest and home eco
Monies demonstration by Miss Thayer.
Thursday: Home economics demonstra-
ton by Miss Thayer at Cobble Hill

them arrived in their private cars anc

They are the presidents of the big

them were some of the men whose de-

spite of the heat. Hon. L. S. Brigham,

Tor, secretary of the Greater Vermont
association, who spoke with his usual
enthusiasm on the possibilities of Yer

Hon. IL. w. Collingwood, editor OF the
Rural New Yorker, who talked in very

the prosperity of agriculture OF the flu
ture; and John Willard, secretary of the
Franklin County Mass Farm bureau,
who gave us few ways in which we can
make our farm organizations stronger.
A ball game between Brookfield and Wa

due to the Washington county agent,
f. H. Abbott, and c. A. Badger OF East
Montpelier, for the work which they did
to make this success. Both county
associations owe the boards of trade of
Barre and Montpelier their thanks for
the aid and courtesies extended to them
by these organizations. Let us hope that
this will be but the beginning of such
picnics.
