NO VERMONT BUILDING YET
Retrenchment Policy to Delay E..
S. A. & ]. Z. Structure.
New Hampshire Hns Dill Framed for
Building Funds--E. =. Brigham ana
Others Mt Springfield, Mass,
banquet.

The state Will do nothing during the
present session Of the Legislature toward
appropriating FUNDS for the erection of n
Vermont building at Springfield, Mass. ~.
"A unit in the Eastern States Agricultural
and Industrial Expositions plant. In the
opinion Of Ebert S. Brigham of st. Al.
bans, commissioner of agriculture, who
represented Governor Graham at the OK
position dinner in Springfield on Monday.
it would be unwisc to bring up the matter
at this time in view OF the rctrcnchmcnt
policy now being followed. Several Yer
monters with whom he has talked agree
with him.
The proposition is to have each of the
New England States put UP n building.
for State exhibition purposes, etc, and a
bill has already been introduced into one
house of the New Hampshire Legislature,
or soon will be, appropriating funds for
building.
Besides Commissioner Brigham. Wins
low Clark of Shoreham. Senator A. A.
Dunklee of Vernon and Dean j. w Votey
of the engineering school. who represent
ed the university, attended the banquet.
which was held at the Hotel Kimhall.
About 300 were present. Mayor Frank +.
Stacy of Springfield was toastmaster. A
round table was a feature OF the speak
ing. and under the subject of "Co-ordnat-
ing the Farm and Factory''-for produc-
| ton, competition with other regions, ex-
! port, development of boys and girls and
social improvement--more than dozen
speeches were given by speakers from
each Of the New England States. Messrs.
/ Brigham, Dunklec and Clark were among
these A heavy snowstorm, the worst it
was said since 1SSS, cut down the attend
ance considerably.
The exposition organization intends to
spend about $1,000 in addition to the APP
proxirnatcly $4,000 already put into
buildings, to add several units: 4 steel
concrete grandstand to seat 1900 persons.
n restaurant building to scat 700
a boys and girls building with 1900
square feet of exhibition space, poultry.
! fish and game and pet stock building.
agricultural, horticultural, sheep and
swine buildings. The woman's building
ii is planned to complete to double its
present size, while grading road improve
nent. a playground, recreation. field. foot
ball field. etc, are also contemplated.
Next summer a national or International
! exposition of export products of the Uni
ted States will he held. The eastern States
organization aims to be national in scope
and Will try to attract national exposi-
tions, it is said. to meet on it's grounds,
which in size and convenience combined
are the best in the northeast. Director
John Barrett of the bureau of South
: American Republics, from whom a letter
was read ut the banquet Monday night, is
interesting himself in next summers ex-
position. He has expressed the view that
such an exposition would afford South
Americans a splendid chance to view the
countrys agricultural and industrial
products.

cient regret for things that
might have been better-and
perhaps in the end, happier.
Again it swallows them up in
the vortex of the great unceas-
ing, pitiless economic struggle,
and having sapped brain, body
and soul, returns to us the emp
ty she'll that once housed our
friend. That is what it did to
him.
Are not some fated to be
bound to the wheel ano others
to walk in the glad places, and
at the end of the Dolorosa Way
is not there heavenly compen-
sation? Perhaps, but somehow
down deep in our hearts will
continue the bitterness of an an
cient revolt because of empty
and joyless lives, the deep re-
sentiment because of that blind
fatality, which even through
love, wrecks human aspirations
and makes of life an unending
tragedy.-Tom Bodine.

WHAT THE WAR HAS DONE.

Horatio Bottomley, editor of
the famous English weekly,
John Bull' and one of the lead
ing Agnostics, has recently re-
nounced his unfaith. He makes
his confession thus: To-day, in
my fifty-ffth year, | believe in
God! And in the Immortality Of
the soul of man. | am not sure
that if poor Foot (the leader of
English Free-thinkers) had died
a few years ago might not have
been candidate for his success
orship. But now it is too late.
The great word war has done
it. If war does not engender
faith, it must of necessity breed
despair in these soul-searching
days. Pure rationalism, however
scientific, has no word of inspira-
tion for the warrior, or of So
lace for broken hearts. Chris

SEED WHEAT.

It will be necessary to do more
careful tanning and grading this
spring than for years past. 1t
has been discovered by investi-
cation that the harder, better
developed kernels in the head
of wheat, germinate better than
the lighter kernels in the same
head.
Grading according to size will
not select the kernels which will
germinate the best.
The vitality or life of seed
wheat depends upon the density
of the kernels. The termination
is independent of the size of the
kernels.
This all proves that separa-
tion of seed wheat according to
size or weight alone will not do.
1t should be separated by a ma
chine which fans and screens at
the same time. The hard ker-
nels' are the best kernels.

WORK FOR THE WINTER.

Last election night the lead
ing bonvivant of a certain town
proceeded joyously and faithful
ly to go in for strong drink on
a larger scale than was for his
own best interests. His travels
then took him to the headquar-
ters Of the Republican county
committee, where he sat and
listened to the election returns.
All night long he heard the pre-
cinct figures counted off-so
many for Hank Hicks and so
many for Bill Jones for this or
that office.
Then he started homeward,
steering his course along a
street that was rough, as it
seemed to him, like a sea. AS
one great billow pushed him
against the plate-glass front of
a restaurant, he glanced in at
the signs that gave the prices
|of various food dishes offered
in that caravansary. He read:
Pork and apple sauce, 25.
Ham and eggs, 35."
"Hurrah for ham and eggsp'
he shouted, as he continued on
his way.-Everybody's.

GENTLE ART OF NAGGING.

Nagging your husband is a
special art by itself, and while
some women have a natural gift
in that direction others can only
acquire it by constant applica-
tion. A husband in a, house is
something like a hippopctamus.
He is often dull, placid crea-
ture, hard to move or dislodge,
especially if he gets accustomed
to a favorite chair. He often be-
comes toughened by exposure to
constant nagging, and it. takes
a powerful weapon with a fair
ly high trajectory to do him any
damage. Occasionally, however,
he develops sensitive areas and
can become a constant source
of pleasure to any lady who likes
to nag.
Every woman knows, of
course, that her husband is more
susceptible about half an hour
before dinner, when he has come
home from the. Office tired out.
BY studying him carefully, she
