VERMONT TRADE REPORT

Summarizing trade conditions in Yer
mont for the first half of the present
year, the Bradstreet's office at Bur
lington says:
Manufacturers, save in one or two
instances, are fully as well supplied
with business as they were year ago
this time
Building work for the quarter is
below that of any corresponding quar-
ter since 1913, but the half year, owing
to the volume done the first three
months, was the largest since records
were first kept in 1912, 1t is anticlpat-
ed that owing to cost of material that
the amount Of new work this year will
not increase
Failures have increased in number
but the amount of money involved was
considerably below that for same period
in 1916.
COLLECTIONS are not as strong, Re
tail trade in certain sections has been
active but as whole weather conditions
have interferred and seasonable goods
have not moved well.
with the crops all are late except
grass which is highly developed and
ready to cut. In some sections this is
badly lodged. The outlook is for one of
the largest hay crops the State has pro.
duced. Corn has developed fairly well
but needs sunshine; beans are growing
better than was expected.
-Four government contracts in as
many different lines are beng handled
by State manufacturers
"Tanneries complain that the falling
off in demand has affected amount of
business received In the machine line
plants are operating to capacity but
notice the amount of business from
foreign countries is not as large as
earlier in the year With the paper
manufacturers the amount of business
on hand compares well with 1914 and
1915 but below that Of year ago.
With the State automobile dealers eX-
traordinary efforts have been made to
push business and it is believed the
volume Is about up to period of year
ago although there has been an accu-
mutation in large volume of notes and
accounts receivable. More used cars
are said to have been received in eX-
change but these have in turn been
placed to advantage.

The problem of caring for informed
prisoners and prisoners of war, and the
question of former prisoners entering
the army are also discussed, AS mat
tiers now stand an executive order is
sued by President Roosevelt in 1900,
prohibits the government from con-
tracing for or buying prison-made
goods, and the conference has drafted a
letter to President Wilson asking that
this order be recnded for the duration
of the war at least,
Judge Weeks added to his letter
some:interesting comments on crops
"The trip from New York to Wash
ington was full of interest he says,
watching the growing crops on the line
of the Pennsylvania railroad acres Of
potatoes just coming to the blossoming
stage vast cornfelds ranging in growth
from ~ to "a inches, all in the highest
state of cultivation, No weeds. Hun
dreds of acres Of rye and wheat almost
ready for harvest Areas in some places
as far as an eye could carry, If this
evidence from the car line is indicative
of the lands not in sight, the farmers
are responding Loyalty to the call of the
country in agricultural pursuits, The
hay crop is inferior to that of Addison
County in quality and quantity. "

THE PRESS "GANG"

A detachment Of the Vermont Press
Association charged Mt. Mansfield last
Saturday, occupying Smuggler's Notch
without the loss of breath. The cen
sorshlp has not been entirely lifted, but
we are indebted to Mr.. Langley OF the
Barre Times for some particulars. We
are told that Frank Howe of the Ben
nington Banner reeled off poetry by the
ward" But he withhods publication of
his verses, otherwise we might better
Judge of his chances in the next guber-
material race. ,
We are told that Walter Hubbard of
the Brattleboro Reformer ruined per-
fectly good suit of clothes with Mans
field mud. This is calamity that
would hit some of us hard, but we hap
pen to know that Hubbard has one
other suit
Our friend, Howard Hindley of Rut-
land, walked up the mountain but rode
down" We have always known Bro.
Hindley as a good hill cIimber-have
seen him take many editorial SUBMITS

ride down? Doesn't he trust his own
brakes?
We learn that 1.-THE elongated Belk-
nan. w. c., of the Bellows Falls
Times, president of the Vermont Press
Association, "stuck pretty close tc

be accompanied by two supporting atti-
davits signed by heads of families. Sim

DO NOT EXPERIMENT THIS YEAR
u. 5. Department of Agriculture
Urges Farmers to Plant Only the
Known and Tried Varieties

Don't experiment this summer.
Plant only the tried and known var
ieties, in order that the harvest may
be sure and certain.
This is the suggestion sent out by
the U. s. department Of agriculture
to the farmers Of the Great Plains
region, and it has an APPLICATION here
in Colorado.
Under ordinary circumstances 1t is
desirable that new varieties be tried
out for the purpose Of improving the
yields and adding to production, when
ever these experiments reveal a strain
which will accomplish this. This year
however the big aim is to produce, to
make every acre yield its maximum Of
food for man and beast, and by elm
mating the experiments we shall
greatly add to the acreage Of actual
food-producing ground.
According to the bulletin issued by
the department Of agriculture, it is
especially important that the farmers
avoid putting too much faith in GER
tain new varieties of sorghums, the
bulletin going so far as to say that
new sorghum varieties are risky"
1t is pointed out that the state ex-
pertinent stations and the depart
ment of agriculture arc carrying on
experiments with these new varieties
and that it is the safer plan for the
farmer TO await the results Of these
tests.-Colorado Agricultural College
News Notes.

fat, which is not needed for the dairy
calf after two weeks old. Corn meal,
ground oats, or linsed meal may be
used to advantage as supplementary
feeds.
milk fed TO calves should be warm,
sweet and clean, and fed at regular
mealtimes in uniform amounts and
in clean, scalded buckets. Occasion
ally very rich milk will be found to
disagree with a calf. In this case
the milk may be diluted with clean,
warm skim milk or milk having a
comparatively low fat content may be
substituted.
"a dairy calf of the smaller breeds
should get about one gallon Of milk
per day. divided into three feeds daily
for the first ten days and two daily
feeds afterwards. Calves Of the larg
er breeds will take more. After two
weeks old, sweet warm skim milk
may be substituted for the whole milk
and the quantity gradually increased
TO one and one-half gallons per day,
and to two or two and one-haR gal
Ions after two and one-half months
old. Large calves may be given more.
To check securing in calves, reduce
the feed and give one or two teaspoon
fulls of dried blood in the milk daily"

FEEDING DAIRY CALVES
Grain Feeds Can BE Substituted for
Butterfat in Whole Milk

In the nationwide movement for
an increased food supply, which has
swept the United States during the
past few weeks, the livestock man has
been urged to do his part. He has
been urged to increase production and
to save his calves.
Prof. Chas. l. Bray, Of the Agri-
cultural college, has prepared the fol-
lowing on the feeding Of calves for the
benefit of those who may desire in
formation upon the subject:
whole milk at 20 cents or more
per gallon is too expensive to feed to
calves, and the butterfat can be eco
nomically replaced by grain feed.
Skim milk contains all the feed nut
rients of the whole milk except the
