JOHN b. YOUNG,

John b, Young, a graduate of Middle
bury College in the class of 1861, died at
his home in Davenport, Iowa, February
9th. lie was born in Duane, N. Y, in
1888 and prepared for college In Franklin
Academy, Malone, Among his class
mates were Charles II, Abel, Lyman
W. Peet, Il. II, Phelps, Rev, Chandler
N. Thomas and Ezra j, Warner, all of
whom have died within a few years.
After graduation Mr., Young taught in
academies in northern New York and In
1868 went to Davenport as principal OF
the high school, Ten years later he
was appointed superintendent of the
Davenport schools, which office he held
for 20 years. His high character as a
man and his influence as an educator IL
thus described by the Davenport Times
"His life was splendid illustration OF
the fact that man is no older than his
mental activity-his point of view
Conservative, he was also progressive
He kept abreast Of and sometimes a
little ahead Of the majority thought OF
educational leaders Davenport's splen'
did school system is proof of that fact
"Can anyone weigh the influence OF
such man, or measure it, or say where
II will become so overlaid with the
thought of the newer generation that II
cannot longer be traced? For 20 years
he was at the head Of the public schools,
gently directing, molding, suggesting
leading, correcting and guiding Daven
ports thought of the time and Daven
ports view point for years to come.
"And above all, his was a lovablt
character. He was fatherly, almost
patriarchal, in his relations to the
pupils and children, They went to hin
with their troubles and kind words
often smoothed out the rough places
He seemed to be the friend of every one
in all the schools and his influence thus
extended out through the whole com
munity."

two and one-half to three pounds OF
corn silage or roots daily to each ami
NAL in addition to hay. About Jan.
ewes receive n limited grain ration
varying from one-fourth to one-halr
pound per day, depending on their con-
dition.
Ewes receiving a grain ration before
Landing always produce more milk TO-
lambs. The grain mixture used ar
state College farm consists OF i've
parts OF shellcd corn, three parts OF
oats, two parts Of wheat bran and one
part of oilmeal.
After lambs are born the eve will
not consume as much roughage feed.
More grain is then necessary to give n
milk flow sufficient for the best growth
of the lamb. The grain mixture should
be increased therefore, one-half pound
or more daily per cwe depending on
her condition and also upon the num-
Der of lambs she is raising.
Next to proper feeding exercise IS
considered the most important factor
in keeping ewes in good condition for
Landing. Exercise lots should be well
drained to prevent sore feet. 1t is well
to allow ewes to range on pasture dur
ing the winter, since exercise gives
strength and enables them to produce
lambs with less effort and Of strong
er, more vigorous type.

WHERE WE STAND.

The enthusiastic satisfaction with
which the rupture with Germany was
greeted has given way to distress and
disgust at the inaction of the Presi-
dent and Congress in the face of
the renewal of submarine sinkings of
neutral ships and the virtual blockade Of
American ports. The fear is increasing
that we may be settling back.for another
miserable period Of "watchful wait
ing" far more disgraceful than our
inaction toward Mexico, because so
much larger issues are involved. Wash
ington seems timid and confused be-
cause of the demonstrations and APP
peals of a few noisy pacificts. If our
public men could hear the talk at our
fire-sides and shops, they would learn
that the heart of the country is still
sound for the maintenance of American
rights and honor. The sympathy of
the country is strongly with France and
England and the sooner our army and
navy is in hearty cooperation with the
forces of the allies the better we will be
pleased. The invalid wife of Wendell
Phillips used to send him off to his
meetings with the parting counsel,
"Now Wendall, no shilly- shally !" If
Mr.. Wilson could only hear something
like that the next time he rides up

IRELAND'S PROSPECTS.

Home Rule will probably be given to
Ireland soon after peace is established
in Europe. Considering the fact that
there is a growing tendency to similar
demand in Scotland and Wales, it is not
impossible that local self government
will be granted them. In many respects
it would be of great advantage to the
whole nation. For as has been said,
Parliament is overburdened with the
double task of trying, on the one hand
to govern the Empire, and on the other
to provide for and control the internal
and local government Of the forty-tive
million people in these islands. Either
task is enough to absorb its full time
and energies. Accordingly great in
terest was aroused at a suggestion
made at meeting Of the Royal Geo
graphical society that England should
be divided into twelve provinces, each
to have capital and local parliament.
The boundaries were carefully dein-
Gated and shown on a map which has
been published. 1t certainly seems as
if in the not distant future England will,
in imitation of the United States, con-
sist of separate federated States or
provinces with local self government
all under the control of the Imperial
Parliament.

a x. MOORE,
LIME FOR THE FARMERS.

The farmers in Addison county, who
have not already purchased their sup
ply of lime should do so at once. We
have in the county at present three
sources of agricultural lime, one at New
Haven, one at Leicester Junction, and
one in Orwell. The lime in stock at the
Green Mountain lime kiln in New
Haven, analyses probably about 70 per
cent oxide, there is also another grade
of lime in large pile at the Green
Mountain lime kiln which though of in
ferior quality is of very good value,
when price is considered. In this pile
there is air Stacked lime and core.
People who live within hauling distance
of the lime kiln can take advantage Of
this source of lime by driving to the
lime kiln, sorting out the core and get
ting a fairly good quality of lime at a
very low cost. At Leicester Junction
lime kiln there is for sale lime which
will probably analyze about 70 per cent
oxide, which believe is sold at about
the same price as the lime of the same
quality at the New Haven lime kiln.
Farmers in the immediate vicinity of
either of these lime kilns will be able to
purchase agricultural lime more reason
able thap/farmers in any other section
of the State and they should take advan-
tage of this opportunity. The other
source of lime is the lime grinder at
Orwell, in charge of D. j. Leonard.
Here the lime stone is merely ground up
in powder form and sold as such. This
contains the equivalent of about so or
So per cent oxide.
1t has been found by tests made at the
experiment station of samples of soil
Middlebury register. (Middlebury, Vt.) 1886-1937, 1917-03-02

collected by the county agent that the
soil of Addison county needs about one
and one-half tons per acre Of the best
grade of lime that can be obtained at
New Haven and Leicester lime kiln's or
about two tons per acre of the grade of
lime handled by Mr.. Leonard of Orwell.
1t would seem that the lime question is
a local proposition and the men living in
the immediate vicinity of either of
these three sources would proftably use
the material put out by the local plant.
Farmers should order and draw their
lime as soon as possible so that this
work will not interfere with the spring
rush.

THE SLEEPING SENTINEL

A correspondent of the Register in
aures wi ether the author of 1.-THE
Sleeping Sentinel" ever lived in Mi Idle
bury. His name was Francis de Haes
Janvier. 1t will be remembered the
sleeping sentinel was William Scott, a
Groton boy, who was enlisted in 1861
and killed at Lees Mills in 1862. He
was sentenced to be shot for sleeping
at his post when his regiment was at
Chain Bridge, but was pardoned by
President Lincoln, only to lose his lite
later in action.
We would like to hear from any one
who could give information about
Janvier. Is it true that he once was a
resident of Middlebury?

FERTILIZING WHEAT.
For Spring Application Acid Phosphate
Is Recommended.

For Spring Application Acid Phosphate
Is Recommended.
For wheatfields not fortified last fall
nor MANFRED during the winter, the
Ohio experiment station recommends
for application in early spring, ON near
ly all soils that have been under long
cultivation, from 200 to 300 pounds or
acid phosphate to the acre. Nitrate
of soda has paid for itself in some ex-
detrimental field tests, but the present
cost of potassium prohibits its use this
year.
In the stations fertility tests lOO
pounds of acid phosphate have produc-
ed increase in the yields Of corn, oats,
wheat and hay worth more than 81 at
ordinary farm prices. Nitrate OF soda
used alone has been Improbable, but
its addition to acid phosphate has paid
well on Wooster soil although barely
sufficient to Justify its use at Strongs-
vile. Germantown and Carpenter sub
stations. These materials may easily
be sown by hand in the spring before
growth starts and are soluble in the
soil for the use Of plants. Because
Of the limited response Of wheat to
potassium and because Of its high
price this year the experiment sta
ton advises against the use Of this ele-
ment for the present wheat crop and
urges farmers to preserve all barnyard
manure carefully to supply the neces-
sary potassium.

Dl way of change turn the cram
I'D berry jelly into large bowl and
before it has cooled place in the
dish Of cranberry juice another smaller
bowl. If the smaller bowl does not
keep its place weight it down with
small weight Of some sort. Let the
mold set in this way and before turn
ing it out remove the small bowl and
fill the cavity with some savory salad
mixture such as chopped dressed cab
bage, potato salad or chicken salad
Press the mixture down well and turn
the jelly mold out on plate or smaller
platter.
Nowadays many persons serve cram
berries. so indispensable to the win.
ter appetite, as frozen sherbet with
the roast course. This surely has the
advantage over the usual cranberry
sauce Of being lighter and daintier. 1t
is not at all difficult to make 1t re-
quires about one cupful of sweetened.
strained cranberry Juice to two cupfuls
Of water. a little lemon juice may be
added to give tartness. Turn the mix
ture into all ice cream freezer and
turn as for any frozen sherbet. When
half frozen about the consistency or
snow. you may add a beaten egg white.
This makes the sherbet smooth ana
creamy. This should he served in small
sherbet dishes heaping tablespoon
full being sufficient for each person.
A good Old fashioned rule for cran-
berry jelly calls for two quarts of the
berries which should be washed care"
fully in cold water. Then they should
be put into a large stewpan with cup
full of hot water ana one pound of
sugar. They should be stewed slow
w till tender enough to he strained
through a wire sieve. The juice should
be turned into jelly mold If turned
into glass a silver spoon should be left
in the dish while pouring in the hot
Juice to prevent the glass from crack
ing. 1t is always well to moisten
mold with cold water before pouring
in the jelly juice.
Two measures of cranberries, two
measures of sugar. one measure of wa
ter-this is the simple rule for cook
ing cranberrics remembered by many
housewives. Among old fashioned cooks
many are they who prefer to cook the
berries before adding the sugar, and
the advantage here is that no sugar Is
wasted in the straining and also that
danger from burning is leSsened as
the plain cranberry juice burns not
nearly so quickly as the sweetened
mixture.
