CONSIDER THE, HEN,

The scarcity Of the food supply and tho
present high prices ought to stimulate
the farmers to unusual efforts to improve
agriculture. The burden of hlCh-priccd
meat, one Of the main essentials of the
American diet, would be greatly relieved
II eggs were low-priccd and abundant.
The American production of eggs could
be doubled in year 10y proper sci
entifc feeding. census statistics in Mis-
souri, show that in that state hens lay
an average Of Is eggs year. In these
days when the hen that lays IN eggs a
year is becoming common among expert
breeders and feeders, the farm hen which
probably supplies - per cent or more of
our egg production is stu stolidly pro
duclng about One-half or onc-third the
number Of eggs that she ought. Some
mems have been bred which have produced
more than 3o eggs each per year or al
most an egg a day. This is i've times the
Missouri average.
productive hen requires 20 to " pounds
of food of the right kind per year. where
as tn" average farm hen which must
scratch for most of her living does not
get more than 10 or 20 pounds of food in
year Farmers in Missouri who urac-
ticc scientific feeding doubled their egg
production almost Immediately Could
there be better evidence than this that
every city and country poultryman can
get results by scientific feeding? Fifty
thousand poultrymen of the state might

We have only to recall the manner in
which the Bourbon republicans of Cali

/ candidate for senator to get an under
standing of the responsibility for the

cratic friends must face the necessity of
seeking out another Wilson. unless we
are to assume Col Roosevelt is TO be the
republican candidate. In that case any
disappear. On that score the choice be-
tween Roosevelt and Wilson would hinge
on the longer interval which has inter
'ened between Col. Rooscvelts second
and third cup Of coffee, ana the Other
fine point whether the colonels serving
out of the balance Of McKinlev's term,
covering nearly four years. lacking only
six and one-thrd months is to be re-
garded as really constituting Roosevclt's
first term, or merely q presidential ac-
cident leading up to his own election by
the people as president i'm l90i
1t may he that the American people
by 1870 will decide irrevocably against 1t
third term or anything approa chine 1t.
having this issue in mind Mr. Wilson
may hold himself in reserve SO that he
can be in a position to checkmate Col
ROoSeN cit.
In such a contingency the possibility
Of the nomination of Mr. Hughes in 1922
will be discussed at least. The slim margin
by which he was defeated in a number
Of States. the small difference in the
popular vote for Wilson and Hughes. and
the comparatively small ma iority in the
electoral college for Wilson over Hughes
will combine to make the republicans
think twice before nominating some
other candidate. However. many things
likely to change the whole political
situation are Liable to happen between
1915 and 1920.
In the meantime, President Wilson Is
credited 10y the political gossip with hav-
ing selected Secretary Baker of the war
department as his presidential heir APP
parent, with all which that may mean
or may not mean regarding the possibility
of Mr.. Wilson asking for a third cup OF

of the questions arising out of the present
presidential struggle is this. are the
Western states as whole to be REGARDED
what will be the perman mt political
effects of such an alignment Of diffe -cnl

That this new sectional division really
exists, does not admit of a doubt. our
readers have already seen how the early
returns from the East Indicated a land

from the Western States added to the

NERNONT'S NEXT SPEAKER.

Stanley G. Wilson Of Chelsea who was
last week reelected as representative to
the General Assembly. has announced
his candidacy for the Speakership of the
House mt the approaching session Two
years ago Mr. Wilson was a candidate
for that position, but at the last moment
withdrew from the contest in the in
terests Of harmony and seconded the
nomination of Judge Weeks His action
on that occasion has added deservedly to
his popularity and strength as a candi-
date.
Mr.. Wilson, who is lawyer, was born
and raised on a farm in the town Of
Orange. He Was educated at Goddard
Seminary and Tufts College, and studied
law in Montpelier. where he did news
paper work to pay his expenses. He has
been in the successful practice of the law
for twelve years and is regarded as an
able member of his profession. He was
an official reporter in the Legislature in
1902 and again in 1904. and States ATTORNEY
for Orange county from 1905 to 1912 In
the last Legislature, he vas member
of the committee on rules and judiciary
and chairman of the committee on ways
and means, besides serving on several
special committees
MIR. Wilson so far as we have heard
is the only candidate for the speakership
Of the next House and he viii probably
have practically unanimous election
He has good voice and other uualifica-
tons which combine to make him an
excellent presiding Officer
