no: the form Of government That
compulsory training may be carried
out successfully by a republic and
does not depend upon autocraey or
monarchy for It's force is shown in
the case Of France, which has indeed
rivaled the famed organization OF
Germany.
Applying these lessons TO our own
country, we may observe that it IS
unnecessary to intensity military
training as the Old World Powers
have done. We do not need tire
mendous standing army, embracing in
all its branches and reserves practi-
cally the entire citizenship But W,
do need a much greater body of men
with sufficient training to become use
full as soldiers in case of war with a
first power than we can possibly get
10 enlist as regulars and take the
prescribed service, or than we can af-
ford TO pay and MAINTAIN as such. 10
secure them safely and surely and
fairly to all, we need a short term of
general military training, with a per-
manent skeleton organization so adj
justed and equipped as to make use of
all these men that might be required
in the shortest possible time.
Instead of such force being an in
ducement to go to war, it would be
brake on iingoism. When one or more
from every household are liable to call
and obliged to go if called, there would
be far less cry for war than there is
when men loudly shout for the main
tenance of this country's rights and
honor without the least intention that
they or theirs shall risk life or limb in
its behalf.-Randolph Herald.

PATROL SYSTEM FOR ROADS
TO be Em mphssiEed at County Meeting
April ith

One Of the chief things 70 be consid.
erred at :he Bennington County good
roads meeting in Bennington on April
4th is the Patrol System"
One Of the big questions which con
fronts every town in Bennington
County is How shall we maintain
our roads after we have built them -
BY the Patrol System" certain
stretches Of the selected roads are
taken In charge by special patrol
man. who gives his entire time to
maintain :hem, thus keeping the Sc
lected road in good condition all tho
time and leaving the road commission
er free to put more time and attention
on the remaining roads. All Of the
extra expense incurred by the system
is met by the State.
The advantages are so evident that
increased numbers of roads all over
the State are being placed under the
system. In fact, The only reason
why more roads are not so handled
is because il is as yet new thing and
is not clearly understood.
The advantages are many. In the
first place il keeps the road good all
the time, and avoids :he inconyenient
and expensive way Of letting roads go
To pieces and then repairing them.
The patrolman gives his full time to
the work, insuring that things will be
done when needed, The road commits
sioner. not working full time, often
must look after his own affairs just
when he is most needed on the road.
1t causes men on adjoining sections Of
selected roads TO rival each other as
to whom can keep his road in the bet
ter condition.
We often hear il said, "That road
needs fixing, small expense now
would save much bigger expense
later on" but still the road commits
sioner has no money with which to fix
it until another summer. Under the
Patrol System the road is kept up and
when the money is expended the State
foots the bills.
We are very rapidly completing the
building of our main roads. The
problem now is TO maintain them with
the least expense This can be attain
ed best by the "Patrol System"
Not only road commissioners and
selectmen, but all who are interested
in or use the roads should attend the
road meeting in Bennington April 4.

HIGH GRADE STEERS BRING
$1,000 MORE PER HEAD

Washington, March 25-That it
pays to raise good stock is illustrated
by the experience Of two Utah ranch
men who sent their steers to the same
market on the same day Both ran
| their stock on National Forest range
under grazing permits, both used the
same amount of range per head of
stock, and both paid the same grazing
/ fee. One gave close attention to the
selection of his breeding cows and
used only high-grade bulls. The other
made no effort to improve his herd.
The owner of the high-grade stock re-
ceived $40 per head more for his steers
than the owner of the common stock.
On some of the National Forest
ranges the stockmen club together, it
is reported, and buy high grade bulls
which are owned as community prop
erty. Since the administration of the
Forests is in the hands of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, naturally there is
desire to encourage the use of good
breeding stock and to eliminate the
scrubs. In general, the effort is to
make the ranges as beneficial to the
country as possible. This is done
partly by making experiments and
studies to find out to what extent new
methods will pay.
An example is a series of expert
ments covering the use of sheds and
small fenced pastures during lambing
time which, Fores: officers say, has
practically demonstrated the value of
this method in increasing the number
of lambs saved. Although the
ranges on most of the Forests are said
to be practically stocked to the limit,
the experts believe it is possible to
increase the output of the ranges sub
stantially through improved methods
ofyutilization. One of The most prom
Using of these methods is to increase
the average weight of the animals
turned off by improving the grade of
stock on the ranges. The thorough
bred eats no more grass than the
scrub, weighs more pounds when fat,
and sells for higher price, without
putting any additional burden on the
range itself
That livestock leaves the National
Forest range in excellen. condition is
indicated by several instances report
ed by Forest officers during the sea
son of 1915. Sheepmen using the
Hayden National Forest range in Col
orado agreed at recent meeting that
their 1915 lambs averaged fully ten
pounds per head above the average of
ten years ago, which they attributed
to the results of range con-
OF two large shipments Of
lambs from the Wyoming National
Forest, one averaged eighty and the
other eighty-four pounds per head on
the scales a. Omaha The average
weight Of $4,000 head Of April and
May lambs from The Madison Forest
N Montana, after being shrunk for
-welye hours, was 75.7 pounds each
An even more surprising result is re-
ported from the eayerhead Forest al
% in Montana From a band OF 900
,wcs grazed on this Forest, the owner
-aised and shippea $50 lambs which
lgeraged 81 pounds per head after
,eing driven fifty-dve miles to the
hipping point.

WHAT MILLION ARMY
MEANS IN WAR TIME

Figures Almost Beyond Power of I'm
agination in Men and Munitions
Some Job TO Put Stunt Over. Some
thing More than Saying Forward
March,
What does an army Of a million
mean? One million men marching
four abreast would extend over line
400 miles long, practically from Kan
sas City to the Colorado border. Some
of the things that these million men
must be provided with before :hey can
fight are:
100000 rifles and bayonets for them
to fight with.
265,OoO pistols, little brothers OF
the rifle.
| 5000 machine guns, the military
scythe.
1866, 100000 cartridges to carry them
into their first fight, and as many
more for each succeeding fight.
2,500000 shells and shrapnel for our
field guns for every hour they are in
action.
10000 horses to carry them and
pull their gun carriages.
l27,000 mules to haul their supplies
and pack their guns.
5000 wagons to transport their sup
plies and ammunition.
100000 cartridge belts for their
ammunition.
100000 first aid packets to bind
up their wounds.
100000 ponchos to keep them dry.
100000 canteens.
Each of them must have uniform
and equipment.
100000 shelter halves to protect
them from the weather.
100000 blankets to keep them
warm.
100000 pairs Of shoes.
100000 uniform coats, breeches,
leggins, suits of und
100000 hats.
100000 shirts.
100000 pairs of socks,
100000 haversacks.
Finally they must eat:
100000 pounds of meat each day.
100000 pounds of bread each day
100000 pounds of vegetables each
day.
100000 pints of coffee or tea each
day.
All this must be purchased, trans
ported, prepared and cookedeach day,
and to eat it, they must have:
100000 cups.
100000 plates.
100000 knives,
100000 forks.
100000 spoons.
To provide for the proper care,
training, and lead in battle they should
have:
$4,000 trained officers.
I he calling into service of one mil
lion men would mean the organization,
equipping and training of 10 armies
,he size of the complete regular army
It the present time. If one million
should apply at the recruiting offices
i. would require the united effort Of
1000 recruiting parties working day
and night for more than 10 days to
enroll and enlist them. 1t would re-
quire a week to move them to the
provided all the suitable rail-
road equipment Of the country were
given over to this work alone
One thousand men would have to
work day and night for 10 days to erect
the tents for them, and when COM
pleted this camp would amount 20

an area equal to the size of ST. Joseph.
