VERMoNr's SHOWING POOR

Bottom of Army Recruiting List.

Washington. May 4.-Oficial fig
ures which were made public by the
war department recently, show that
New England was one of the poorest
regular army recruiting districts in
the United States during April. The
group of six northern states will not
equal the record of the states south
of the Mason and Dixon line; indeed,
ii is said that New England's quota
will fall below that of the Central
West which was derisively called
the yellow belt last fall.
Figures tabulated demonstrated
that New England enlisted scarcely

AFTER THE WAR WHAT?
Big Eastern States Industrial show at
Springfield, Mass.

Many New England manufacturers
who have directly or indirectly been
running at full capacity on war orders
are of the opinion that midsummer
will see the close of the war
What to do with their largely aug
mented equipment and the great num-
Der of extra employees after the war,
is problem that they are now trying
to solve. 1t is hoped that the answer
will be forthcoming at the Export
Conference which will be held in
Springfield, Mass. next June. in con
nection with our Industrial exhibition
of New England's manufacturers.
This will be the first great trade
show held in America, although Hol-
land, Glasgow, London and other
European trade centers have held
them annually for many years. The
Eastern States buildings will house
this Exposition. which has been Of
ficially endorsed by the United States
Department OF commerce.
According to Frank H. Page, chair
man of the General Committee,
thousands of square feet of display
space have already been taken by
New England's leading manufacturers,
and the work will now be actively
carried on to fill NJ the great build
ings to the limit of their capacities.
While the National Dairy Show
made its principa, appeal TO the rural
population, the Industrial Exhibition
will be of direct interest TO the manu-
facturers. dealers and consumers
who go to make up the city population
of the East.
Though the export conference is
very serious in intent and purpose,
the exhibition will be enliyened with
attractive entertainment features and
a splendid show afforded to the
general public.
For the pride they have in this
vicinity, manufacturers are urged by
the committee to put their best foot
forward" in order that other indus
trial centers may not carry off the
palm for the most representative
showing of products.
An interesting illustrated book may
be secured from headquarters in the
Board of Trade rooms at Springfield,
Mass. describing the scope of the I'M
dertakinI.

a little more than fifteen per cent of
its quota. The department called up
on the Bay State for 6.732 men. Only
cent of these will be discharged short
ly because of physical defects.
Poor as was Massachusetts record
that of the other New England states
was as bad or worse. Connecticut
supplied only about Is per cent of her
quota. Maine offered only IL per
cent; Rhode Island II per cent; New
Hampshire about seven per cent and
Vermont scarcely four per cent. De-
partment officials are badly disap-
pointed in Massachusetts,. Connecticut

The department will inaugurate
new poster campaign in New Eng
land early next month in an attempt
to increase recruiting Billboards in
cities and towns and along the main
highways will be plastered with post
ers in the same way that posters have
been displayed in England and
France since the outbreak of the war.
Recruiting for the army has been so
slow in New England that the poster
campaign is held to be necessary.
The only explanation department Of
ficials can give for the recruiting fig
ures is that possibly it has been held
up because SO many in New England.

BARK BOUND.

We had a couple of cherry trees
down on the south slope of our town
estate, but they did not grow like
they should and we were disap-
pointed in their yield. We men
toned the matter to William Don
aldson, when he was hauling for
US one day. He walked over to
the trees, gave them the once over
with his experienced eye. and re-
marked that they were bark
bound. In another minute he was
splitting those trees up trunk and
branch with his trusty pocket
knife. In day or two the bark
parted and split wherever the blade
had touched and before the season
had ended those trees had taken on
new life. We know a lot of people
who need an operation of this sort.
Because of environmet, prejudice,
laziness, disappointment, envy or
some other unwholsome trait that
has gotten into their systems be-
come hidebound and unprogressive,
just as those cherry trees became
bark bound and nonproductive.
A cure might be affected if they
would get away from home occas-
ionly, rub elbows with a purpose
and discover that boosting, not
braying. is a mans job in this old
world. If you have bark-bound
trees. slit them with your pocket
knife. If you are bark-bound
individual, trying to pull every
body back and everything down,
do something to break the letters
that are binding and binding the
better instincts of your nature
