"The deprivation in Germany Is more
serious than in any other country She
did not count upon the long conIinu-
anee of the conflict In 1915 Germany
had 5000 600 sheep producing over 2o''
600, 900 pounds of wool, But her manu-
facture had been at the rate of AGO.
600, 900 pounds. In 1913 Austria-Hun-
gary had over $1,000, 900 sheep produc-
ing over Al 900, 900 pounds of wool, but
her manufacture had been at the rate
of over 100000 pounds From all
accounts these countries are now virtu-
ally denuded of wool The clothing for
the soldiers is being made to an extent
of about 40 per cent of cotton OF
which the stock is also practically eN-
hausted and GO per cent OF wood
fibre Even nettes are being converted
into fabrics that are used in this man
ufacture. It's reported that it is now
even more difficult to buy a shirt or a
handkerchief in Germany than it is to
buy food,
at is ever rash to indulge in predlc-
tons, but it is evident that when the
war is over there will be an unprec-
edented need for clothing in Europe.
1t is estimated that a soldiers outfit is
worn out at the end of two months and
in any event cannot be made to last
longer than six. When the soldiers re-
turn to industrial life they will need to
be reclothed and the wornout gar
ments of all sorts and conditions OF
men, women and children will have to
be replaced. 1t is clear that for an in
definite time to come the demand OF
the world for clothing will rise in re-
ation to the supply and that prices
will be high, The provision Of cotton
can be increased from year to year by
the planting of larger acreage; but
an enhanced provision of wool can only
slowly be brought about and in only
two ways. First, by increasing the
weight Of the fleece Of the sheep now
in existence; second, by increasing the
number of sheep. 1t has been pointed
out that if the United States had only
half as many sheep per square mile as
Great Britain we would have 342, 600,
900 sheep, would raise l,5OO, 900, 900
pounds of wool and would be indie
pendent of the world as far as our wool
supply is concerned and have three
quarters of billion pounds of wool to
export. ."

THE TOWN MEETING.
Continued from Page y

Cook and George Dragon.
Under the last Article, No, IA, "to
transact any other business proper to
be DONE" w. N. Cady called attention
to the unsightly conditions of some of
the cemeteries in town and moved that
the new board of selectmen be author
lied to eXpend sum not to exceed $500
in trimming up the cemetery near the
Prof Means place, in the eastern part
of the village.
After the voting of the various tax
levies, Mr.. Weeks moved that the tax
bills be placed in the treasurer's hands
on or before the 18th day of July stating
that some interest could be saved by
the earlier date of getting the bills into
the hands of the treasurer. This motion
was numerously seconded and went
through by an unanimous and hearty
vote.
When the bulk of the business had
been got out of the way the selectmen
organized by electing E. E. Ross chair
man, and they made the following APP
pointments: Fence viewers, G. j..
Hodges and Edward C. Severance;
pound keeper, John w. Kenworthy;
surveyor of wood and Inspector of
leather, Isaac L. Rogers, and weigher
of coal, Noah Wisell.
This left only the counting of the
votes on the two license questions sub
mtted to be attended to, and the result
of the balloting was announced at 1926
o'clock, as follows: On the question of
town bar license, whole number of votes
381, of which the yes vote was III and
the no vote 219, a no majority of
80: and. on the question of fifth class
or druggist license, the total vote was
1854, of which there were 1853 yes and
2l0 no votes, majority of AZ.

BATTELL NATIONAL PARK.

The Youths Companion takes up the
suggestion of national park along the
crest of the Green Mountains, saying in
a recent number:
"By the will of the late Joseph Bat
tell of Middlebury, Vermont, the United
States government has come into pos
session of tract of about four thousand
acres in the central part of the State
for a national park. The tract includes
part of Lincoln mountain, the summit
of which affords an extensive and beauti-
full view. President Thomas of Middle
bury College suggests that other parts
of the Battell estate be added by pur-
chase to the four thousand-acre tract,
especially a strip that extends along the
crest Of the ridge for twenty-five miles
south of Lincoln Mountain. His plan
calls for scenic highway along that
strip, which includes the highest and
widest land in Vermont. The highway
would pass through grand virgin forests,
and permit glorious views of the Green
Mountains, the White Mountains, the
Adirondacks and Lake Champlain.
Access to the highway would be easy
from the present highways that make
use of passes of the Green Mountains. "

Work Wears Oh tAI Kidneys
Doan's Kidney Pills Have Done Great
Service for People Who Work
in Middlebury.

Many Middlebury people work every
day in some strained, unnatural position
bending constantly over desk-rid'
ing on ioting wagons or cars-doing
laborious homework; hitting, reaching
or pulling, or trying the back in humid
red and one other ways. All these strains
tend to wear, weaken and injure the kid
neys until they fail behind in their work
of filtering the poisons from the blood.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for weak kid
neys and bad backs. Their effective work
in Mlddlebury is convincing proof of
merit
Mrs, John f. Lowell 50 Seymour ST.,
MiddIebury, says: "NIy kidneys became
disordered by overworking and my back
gave me trouble The kidney seCretions
were too frequent In passage and unnat-
ural. My back bothered me mostly when
got up in the morning and when |
stopped, sharp twinges shot through my
back. could see a sort Of blur before
my eyes at times and also had dizzy
spells. felt very miserable most of the
time until | finally used Doan's Kidney
Pills. Four boxes helped me so much
that the trouble hasn't returned.
Price SOC. at all dealers. Don't simply
ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's
Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Lowell
had.

ESQ YEARS OF PROFIT
ABLE GRASS

In England there is a park at
the famous Rothamsted expert
ment station, which has been
used as a meadow for more than
two and one-half centuries,
which was used as hay field at
the time of the Revolution, and
which was in sod when Amer
lea was being colOnized. This
park has been top dressed an
nually for the last sixty years.
At the beginning Of this period
it was producing about IA tons
of hay per acre. Where fertili-
zers have been used, the aver
age acre yield for 80 years has
been in one case 81 tons, in an
other 3.3 tons, and in a third
case Al tons, depending upon
the amount Of top dressing APP
piled. This is really a wonder
full accomplishment, and should
make those farmers who are
content with mining" instead
of farming, with robbing the soil
and year after year getting
smaller and smaller crops, feel
that possibly they are using to
the fullest, the opportunities
given. them.

What the Corn Needs.


A good corn fertilizer should have
from one to three per cent ammonia,
eight to twelve per cent phosphoric
acid and two to four per cent potash,
unless it is used on a muck soil where
from six to ten per cent potash should
he used when 1t can be purchased. If the
fertilizer is to be used on a sandy soil, 1t
should have at least two to three per
cent ammonia, eight to ten per cent
phOSphOriC acid, and two to four per
cent potash. For corn on n clay soil,
especially If there has been some live
stock manure applied, two per cent
ammonia may be adequate along with
ten to twelve per cent phoSphoric acid
and not over one or two per cent pot
ash.
The best results are now being oh
tanned from the use of from 400 to 600
pounds of fertilizer to the acre on corn
The best way to apply the fertilizer is
to put on about 100 pounds to the acre
with tine fertilizer attachment Of the
corn planter when planting the corn
and all amounts above this through the
fertilizer attachment of the grain drill
or n low-down lime and fertilizer dis
tributor before the corn Is planted. If
the corn planter has no fertilizer at
tachment all the fertilizer may be ap-
piled before planting the corn, through
the fertilizer attachment of the grain
drill, or through a lOW-down lime and
fertilizer distributor, being careful to
disk it well into the soil before the
seed Is put into the ground. With pres
ent prices for farm products, larger
yields are more important than ever
before. In fact, rising costs of prOduc-
ton make larger yields necessary for
profits.
Corn Profit.
The growing of corn Is matter Of
dollars and cents. The grower has
a right to expect a fair return on his
money. This can only be secured by
fulfilling every one of the five cardinal
principles of successful corn growing /;
viz Good seed, we'll fitted soil, proper
planting, frequent level and shallow
cultivation and abundant Well-bal-
anced plantfood.
