EXPECT VERMONT
FARM CROPS TO
Be RECORD ONES
More Staples Planted This
Year Than Ever
Before

Burlington, Vt, July 2.-Vermont
is expecting the greatest crop Of po-
tatoes, all sorts of vegetables and
corn in her history. The interest in
was never before what it
is this year, and every one is making
an effort to get bumper crops.
Wheat, which long ago passed out
Of the regular list of Vermont crops,
Is being planted quite extensively this
year. Since the decadence of the
wheat-growing industry most of the
gristmills which formerly dotted the
state have been dismantled, but one
or two have survived and they will
undoubtedly do good business.
OF corn a conservative estimate is
that half again as much as the usual
amount has been planted in the state.
The season win be backward, but, with
the advent of the present warm
weather the crop is coming along
with the rain, and there is sure to
be a good crop of that as well as of
oats and other grains.
The big effort this year, however,
has been directed toward raising po-
tatoes. Almost every available piece
Of land in the towns. and cities has
been brought into use as a garden.
School children are taking care of
hundreds OF acres throughout the
state. Even lawns have been p1owed
up and 600 bushels of potatoes are
expected from a garden on the lawn
of the Vermont State Asylum.
There is no question that Vermont
will produce thousands and thousands
bushels more of potatoes this year
than ever before ip her history.
The same thing Is true to a lesser
extent OF the other vegetables. Tomato
plants were sold out by the dollhouse
people weeks ago, and while more
were obtained outside the state, these
have also gone and none can be had
in Vermont today. Cabbages, cauli-
flower, celery and other plants have
likewise been eagerly bought up.
OF course, the chief obstacle in the
way of harvesting big crops is the
lack of help. Wages are double what
they were a few years ago and help
cannot be obtained even at that price
The University of Vermont has sen,
out 95 per cent. Of her agricultural
students to work. on farms. Other
schools in the state have done the
same thing in an effort to help GU,
the supply.

YPRES IN DAYS
PRECEDING WAR
VERY PROSPEROUS

Paris, France.-No greater contrast
could have been imagined than Ypres
and Armentieres, or Ypres and Cour-
trai, yet these are all three Of the
same medieval Flemish lineage Bru-
ges Ia Mort could well have shared
her cognomen with Ypres, even be-
fore war had reduced Ypres to a ruin.
Many of these old towns with proud
histories have chosen to live in the
past rather than in the present Mer-
vile went SO far as to refuse vehe-
mently to allow the railway between
Dunkirk and Lille 20 pass through
her. boundaries. Armentieres, though
she was old, accepted, and she has, as
result prospered exceedingly.
Client, Courtrai and Armentieres are
the three medieval towns which have
increased in Importance with the CEN
turtles. Hondschoote, Ypres and Wer-
vicq looked back and fossilized.
Ypres, before once more becoming
tragic with the tragedy of war, has
fallen to being "a sleepy country
town, with clean, well kept streets
dull and undressing, save for the
; stately Cloth Hall which stands there
a silent memorial of the past.
Ypres stood 20 miles from the
French frontier, in that rich and fer

THE BEREA FAIR

II has long been the custom OF the
Berea Fair Association to hold q
Fair at Berea each year to which
the inhabitants of the surrounding
country are cordially invited. The
1917 Fair will be held July 81,
August and 2. at the Fair Grounds.
A large list OF prizes has been ar
ranged as usual and all are invited
to compete for them. Several good
races have been arranged and the
horse-lovers of Berea are promised
a good time. The officers in charge
are working hard to make this the
hest Fair Berea has ever had and
with the cooperation of everyone
they should be able to do it. Presi-
dent Wilson has especially urged
that a great number of fairs be
held this summer to stimulate the
program of increased production
thru competition in various shows.
