the Summer.

Many Bushels Of Produce Cared For
Tower Rased on Old Medi-
ical Building.

The work of cataloguing the Vermont
section of the Billings library at the uni
versity Is nearing completion. The work

had several years experience in library
work. She is. a graduate of Syracuse Uni

by authors who were Vermonters and
others who were natives of other States.

a large number of interesting documents
may be found there.

CANNING AT MORRILL, HALL.
Morrill, hall is a busy place now. Some
Of the products are being harvested from
the gardens and farm which were planted
under the direction of the university in
the spring. II is surprising what great
amount of produce Is to be had
from a small section Of land. One
acre was planted with tomatoes at the ex-
pertinent farm and twenty bushels were
harvested yesterday. Girls and boys from
the schools are engaged in preparing the
products to be canned and some Of the
girls who were graduates Of the home
economics course and who are engaged In
extension work at the university have
charge Of the work. The twenty bushels
Of tomatoes picked yesterday were all
canned under their supervision. Every
thing canned will be used in the college
boarding places. Grassmount and the

or the school otherwise. IL will be indoors.
Every child who has a home garden is
urged to keep the best of everything for
the exhibition in order that each school
may make the best possible showing. The
members of the conservation committee
will help the children to arrange the vege-
tables for the exhibition. One lady of the
committee will be assigned to each garden
to help the children get things together,
and there will be others at the high school

REGIMENT DEPARTS
Last Section of LIST Vermont
Leaves for Westfield.
No Denomination Connected with De.
pnrture-Plans for Reorganization
of tho Y. NJ. G. A. at POST
Building May he Moved.

The last Of the First Vermont regiment,
which was scheduled to depart as soon es
possible after receiving orders, left Sunday
night for Westfeld, Mass, on a special
train. There are already about 700 of the
National Guard from Vermont stationed
at Westfed. Those who left Sunday night
were the band, the hospital corps, head.
quarters company, about 500 enlisted men
and most of the commissioned officers Of
| the regiment. All day Saturday and SUM-
day preparations were being made for de-
parture, tents we're taken down, mess
shscks dismantled and rubbish burned.
Every company street was looked over
thoroughly. and a general cleanup was in
order. The men took with them all of
their equipment including the tents. so
that the camp has the appearance Of a
deserted village.
| Now that the men know that all of the
regiment Is to leave and there is a posi-
biity that they may come together again,
there is not as much discomfort as there
was at first. At their departure Sunday
there were no demonstrations Of any
kind other than the usual farewells.
No information is available concerning
the future of the First Vermont, but the
general opinion is that they will soon be
sent abroad.
Plans are being made for reorganiza-
ton of the Y. M. c. A. staff at the Post
coincident with the removal of the First
Vermont regiment. The Y. NJ. c. A. secre-
taries are in favor of removing the build
| ing which is at present on the State re-
servation closer to the 18th and 10Th
cavalry camps. But before this can be
done arrangements have to be made with
the Governor. Owing to the uncertainty Of
the cavalry regiment staying indefinitely
at Fort Ethan Allen. 1t Is a question
whether it would be advisable to do this.
Several new secretaries are expected this
week at the Post Since the first of July,
the business of the Y. NJ. c. A. has in
creased about 30 per cent. and each addi-
tional day adds new features to the work.

MunsOn. Jr.
Poliomyelitis was discovered in this
city Saturday morning. the victim being
Mary Ellen. the 26 months old daughter Of
Mr.. and Mrs. George G. Munson. Jr. Of
POI North Winooski avenue.
Health Officer Ennis told Free Press
man last night that the case Is very
mild one, adding that there were but faint
traces of paralysis in the muscles of the
left leg II this continues to be the case.
there should not be any fears Of alarming
developments.
The little girl had just returned from a
visit in Essex Center. whom she was taken
i'll. Perceiving the child did not improve
Saturday morning. DR.. H. L. Wilder of
North Winooski avenue was called in. and
after an examination ne decided the child
was suffering from poliomyelitis. Once
this diagnosis was confirmed in his mind,
DR.. Wilder notified the health officer. and
this official went to the place. Besides DR..
Ennis, DIR. Charles F. Dalton. secretary of
the Vermont State board Of health. was
notified, as was also DR.. Edward Taylor.
the specialist in this disease. DR.. Taylor
confirmed the theory Of poliomyelitis, after
a short investigation.
No cases of poliomyeltis have been re-
ported to the office of the State board of
health from Essex Center. so there are
no grounds for believing that the child
contracted the disease in that town.
Neither is their any clue advanced that the
child might have come into contact with
any person who came from towns where
the disease is prevalent. The circum@ 'onces
surrounding the manner in which the child
! contracted the disease seem to be en-
veloped in darkness. at the present time
There are three other children In the
family. They are all under five years OF
age. and they. including the father and
mother, are and will be under a strict
quarantine. no one being allowed near the
house but the attending physician and the
health officials.

AS further evil dence of the good treatment and care given the convicts, Dr. Pyatt recalled that he has lost only three by death since contracting for the prisoners two years ago. Referring 70 the ;ury's recommendation that mattress es be Furnished the convicts, pr. Pyatt said this is impractical.
 "In the first place, it would break any man," he declared. "You can't get mattress for less than $3, and we'd have to destroy them every week in the continuous fight against vcrmin. We use straw on the hunks, and burn it every week. The blank cts arc disinfected. and disinfectants sprayed on the hunks and everywhere in the stockade where vermin may exist. I believe we've got the best camp in the country"
 Concerning the food, Dr. Pyatt saiL his food bills will show that the convcts receive wholesome food in ample quantity. Tho meat is cost ing him 27 and 2S cents 9 pound. he said. the convicts are given meat at every meal.
 Dr. Pyatt declares that Ewing is an ingrate, and intimated that tho grand jurors responsible for tho ad- verse report of conditions at the farm were lacking in knowledge oe the entire situation with which they sought to deal, particularly of the nature of the convicts, and that the jurors would not incur the expense the present lessee contracts in orGer to keep the prisoners healthy, clean and cheerful.
 "It is not only that try and do the best can for the convicts for humane reasons. but it is good eMsiness policy" concluded Dr. Pyatt. A sick man is dead loss. It is to my interest to keep them we'll, and cheerful"
