The Tomato and the Potato.

One morning about ten O'Clock in
came farmer Brown with two pota-
toes in one hand and two tomatoes in
the other hand. He put them on
the table in the kitchen. "Jemina,"
he called. (Jemina was the negro
cook of Mr.. and Mrs. Brown "All
right, sar," she replied, and in she
came with white cap on and blue
and white checkered apron.
Here are two potatoes and two
tomatoes" farmer Brown went on,

ner." So Jemina went and stirred
up the fire and put the kettle on for
dinner. While she was working one
of the potatoes and a tomato had a
little conversation. "Well, began

VERMONT

There's state love to dream of
Through the winters cold and storm;
There's state love to visit
In the summer when it's warm.
Sunshine's glory DER its landscape
Breath life-giving in the air,
Ripping brooks and sweetest bird-notes,
Mowers son and flowers fair,
Groves of lofty sugar-maples
whispering to the summer breeze,
Wintergreen among the bushes,
Madenhair beneath the trees!
oh, Vermont l love thy hiltops,
Love thy forests green and cool,
Where the white birch stands and narvels
At her image in the pool.
Many charm, thou state resplendent,
Binds me closer still to thee
But above all charms thou boaStest
Are thy people dear to me.

Old Glory hears our glad salute and ripples to

1t is reported that the consulting
naval board has device to cheek
the U-boats and stop the menace of
this under-sea craft. Some are
skeptical as to this, but we have
faith in American ingenuity and feel
confident that such men as are on
the consulting board and the invent
i've genius of Edison and others, will
find the solution of this peril and
stop the deadly work of the German
submarines. There is a satisfaction
in knowing that whatever American
genius invents to meet the U-boat
menace will not go to foreign
country to be perfected and applied
against the country first bringing it
out. The German U-boat is an
American invention perfected and
made serviceable in the present war.
If America had been more liberal to
her inventors, more awake to the
need eff preparedness, many of the
most successful mechanical war
machines of the Germans would
have remained at home, and today
been a ready weapon for our own
use.

often in the course of human events
we see it acting in direct opposition
to such intent. A skilful handling
of testimony often makes fruitless a

are swayed from personal cstima-

shrewd and eloquent plea of counsel.

WASHINGTON, June 11.-Radical
changes in the income tax section of
the house war tax bill, previously
agreed to tentatively, were finally APP
proved today by the senate finance
committee. The retroactive tax on
1916 incomes, designed to raise S10S,
OO0, 900. and the so-called Lenroot
amendments increasing surtaxes on in
comes of more than $4,000 to bring
about $66, 100000, we restricken out
The committee spent the entire day
on the income section and at adjourn
ment a proposal by Senator Penrose
and Senator Lodge for further re-
duction of surtaXes on incomes over
$4,000 was pending.
Important amendments regarding
the income taxation of corporations
stock dividend and receipts from sub
sidiary corporations We're adopted.
: Stock dividends the committee pro-
poses hal be taxed the amount of
earnings or profits so distributed, in
accordance with the present treasury
department practice. To prevent
double income taxation of corporation
profits. it was decided to exempt from
taxation income received by a holding
" other corporation from another cor
poration upon which the income tax
)nce has been paid
Formal approval was given an
amendment to repeal the present spe-
,ial tax of 12k per cent upon war mu-
nitions. This has been informally
agreed to on the ground that the mu-
nitions manufacturers must pay the
proposed increased income and excess
profit taxes.
