r,uty of Happiness.

Keeping oneself reasonably happy
is a duty that ought not to be shirked.
Science is telling us these days that to
get cut OF the habit of enjoyment Is
TO get depressed in vitality and vigor,
to weaken in efficiency, and to grow
old bcfote ones time. There is moth.
ing like laughter-not empty-headed
laughter, but the intelligent, whole,
some, kindly hearted kind-to keep
people young and fresh and fit for
business and the obligations Of living.
OF course, this Is 4 prescription not
easy to I've up to always, but there is
no reasonable excuse for not trying to
do 1t. Sometimes it is just about as
easy TO be happy as to be miserable If
one makes up his mind to 1t, and there
Is no doubt at all as to which pays
the best.-Onward.

FISH AN1 THE PEOPLE
Does Not Understand Why the Price
Should be Soaring.

Does Not Understand Why she Price
Should be Soaring.
Government food experts tell us to
eat more fish, and thus to help CON
serve the supply of meat. The ad-
vice seems good-until the people, in
their laudable endeavor to do this,
run up against fish prices that are
two or three times as high as they
were few years ago, making the eat
ing Of the article matter of extra
vagance to most people. Yet the sup
ply of fish is lessened in no such way
as the soaring prices would argue.
Tremendous catches are reported al
most every day What is the mat
ter?
This is for the government experts
to find out, and we have the right to
expect that they will do so. In fact,
Mr.. Hoover has just been discussing
the matter of increasing the produc-
ton of fish with a number of Massa-
chusetts representatives of the Indus
try Let us suggest an investigation
of the putting of fish in cold storage
in order to keep the fresh retail sup
ply from becoming too large and thus
too cheap. Also the charges that the
big concerns on Cape Cod are guilty
of throwing away vast quantities of
the less popular kinds of fish caught
with the rest.
The government aims to speed up
production" of fish. This is a laud-
able effort. 1t would be good thing
il more fishermen were engaged at
and from all of our seaports-places
like New Bedford, Newburyport
Portsmouth, Portland, Boothbay,
Rockland and others-instead of cen
tering their activities in only one or
two. Yet the government must take
note Of the fact that most of the pres
ent fishing catch of these smaller
ports, when there is any, Is imme.
diately transferred to the trusts at
the big centers, making fish higher
at retail locally than it is in the great
centers. That is all wrong
There are mysteries of the fish
business that very much need clear
ing up, and if the federal food COM
can do the job, 1t will win the .
applause of grateful people. -Bos-

SHEEP COMING BACK

Wake up.

An interesting explanation of the
IIdepressed condition of the sheep in

himself, is new and quite as conyinc-

| ton OF the dog The worthless dog"
| is troublesome Of course, but he isn't
responsible for the loss of hundreds
of thousands of sheep which once
grazed on the hills of Vermont. Ora
tory and dog bills, therefore, such as
take up a great deal of the time of
the Vermont legislature, will not
sring them back.
The friends OF the dog-though we
don't know as he even likes dogs--i5
about the sheep industry in the New
England Homestead. To the ques-
ton, why is it languishing, he says:
The real reason is not the dogs, 1t
is not the lack of fences; 1t is not
run-out and Undiscovered pastures,
1t is not there Is no profit in it. Back
of all these repeatedly heard excuses
lies the true reason. 1t is this, the
lamentable fact that the average New
England farmer cannot respond quick
~ to an economic opportunity. He
will respond in time, but he is show. |

There were ever 100000 in each OF
the counties of Bennington, Caledonia
