NOTICE TO ADDISON COUNTY
FARMERS.

All farmers should realize by this
time the feeding value of sweet clover.
If it is harvested before it has attained
a too rank growth, it is very nearly
equal to alfalfa in feeding value. 1t
should be cut before it blossoms. Large
growt his of this are to be seen along the
roadsides; in fact, there are several tons
of this wonderful feed growing along
the roadsides in Addison County. 1t is
indeed very advisable to cut it as feed
for the dairy stock and now is the time
to do it.
The first alfalfa crop is now being
harvested, How will l cure it?' asks
a farmer. 1t is very difficult to cure
alfalfa when the weather is so almost
continually wet as it is now. Probably
the best thing to do is to ensile it. A
smaller crop of corn may well be ex-
pected this year than last year and it is
very likely that many farmers will have
room in their silos for bot h this first
crop of alfalfa and the crop of corn.
One man with whom the county agent
has talked plans to put the first crop of
his fifteen acres of alfalfa into silo.
Others might well follow his example.
If this is done the alfalfa, which does
not pack as well as the corn, should be
tramped as it is being put in and
weighted afterwards with stone, bags
of soil or something similar. The better
it is packed the better it will keep.

WHAT CATAURH IS

It has been said that every third
person has catarh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarh
often indicates a general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form of snuGs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat ita

SAKE CENTENNIAL,

SAKE CENTENNIAL,
At the annual Commencemen Dinner,
given in the Mccullough Gymnasium,
June q, Hon, John G. SAKE addressed
the students and alumni of the college
in commemoration of the one-hundreth
anniversary Of the birth of John G.
SAKE, the famous Vermont poet and
author, who was a graduate of the
college in l849. Mr., SAKE said
Mr.. President, Members of the Fac
ulty, Undergraduates and Fellow Alum

heart full of thanks and a mind treasur-
ing fond traditions of Vermont and
Middlebury College, | rise to represent
the SAKE who is not here, to reply, for
all the Saxes, to the toast which you
have offered to our ancestors, and to
represent incidentally the SAKE who is
here. In his Post prandial Verses ~

on the pedestal of my grandfather's
devotion to his native State and to his
Alma Mater, and crowned with the
tributes you are paying to his memory
after all these years. In the same con-
nection, your distinguished President has
instructed, directed and commissioned
me to write my Thesis specially on the
life and works of this same Middlebury
graduate, John Godfrey SAKE. | will
do what can to tell you about him.
SAKE was born on June End, 1916. He
died on March 3lst, 1887, He was a
lawyer, an editor, lecturer and a poet,
states attorney of Chittenden County,
attorney general and twice candidate
for Governor of his native State Mid
dlebury honored him with three degrees;
Its B. A., in 1882 Its M, A., in lS43 F.;
Its LII D., in 1866. Just as Sake s
Alma Mater is honoring him on his one
hundredth birth day, so also SAKE was
the poet upon his Alma Matters fifteth
birthday.
You will recall that, shortly prior to
1850, the University of Vermont had
made an offer of marriage to Middle
bury and that after the usual Irritation,
our Alma Mater, had declined. 1t Mid
dlebury's Centennial in 1850, SAKE
read his Song of Rejoicing, Carmen
