THEIR RATION IS
NOT SUFFICIENT
German People and Those of
Belgium and France Get
So Much a Week.

Information concerning the weekly
ration now being allowed the German
people and the civilian population Of
the occupied portions of northern
Franco and Belgium has been re-
ceived by the United States food ad-
ministration. In food value the ra-
ton is insufficient properly to main
tain bodily health and vigor.
Tho German ration is as follows,
the amounts being those allowed per
! person per week:
Flour, 3.45 pounds; potatoes, 7.05
pounds; cereals Goats, beans and
peas) ounces; meat S.S ounces;
sugar 3 ounces: butter and margarine
2.S ounces; and other fats, rs ounces
Stated in terms of American house
keeping, these items amount to suf-
fcient flour to bake Y pounds of
bread, one-half peck Of potatoes; a
cupful of beans, peas and oatmeal;
one-half pound of meat; IL dominoes
of sugar; 6 Individual patties of but
ter; and an equal amount of other
fats.
For the population OF that portion
Of northern France occupied by the
Germans. the allowance is as follows:
Sufficient flour for five pounds of
bread; one fifth peck of potatoes; one
cupful of cereals; 1918 ounces of
bacon and lard: and 10 dominoes of
sugar.
Here meat. butter and margarine
are all replaced by bacon and lard.
The allowance OF flour and cereals
are slightly increased, but the allow
ance OF potatoes Is less than half the
German ration, while that of sugar is
also reduced even below the meager
German allowance.
The ration for the civilian popula-
tion of the occupied portion of Bel
gium is similar to that of northern
france, except bacon and lard are re-
placed by meat and butter.
The German ration, compared with
the ration used as standard for pur-
poses of comparison by the food ad-
ministraticn shows that In body
bIAlding protein the Germans have
Al Of n pound, and the standard ra
tion Los pounds. I'm fats, the German
ration contains .4S of pound as
compared with standard 4 pounds.
In carbohydrates, the German ration
contains All pounds. as compared to
90 pounds for the standard ration.
In total calories, the German ration
aggregates 10,542 as compared to
24GOG in the standard ration.
The standard ration is regarded as
sufficient only for person in sed-
ertary occupation. or one involving
relatively slight physical labor; and
yet 1t provides ~ times as much
body building protein, and nearly
twice as much fat, and nearly u
times as much carbohydrates as the
German ration.
In the ration for northern France,
the substitution of bacon and lard

GOTTA HAVE A SEARCH
WARRANT SAYS LAWYER
However, Police Judge Has
Different Views and Fines
Chicken Shorty $50.

Has an officer right TO search a
man on the streets for firearms with
out search warrant?
Positively not: emphatically and
unalterably and unquestionably not.
It's against all the constitutions;
against the state constitution and the
national constitution and especially
against the constitution OF the man
searched. The constitutions guaratee
the inviolability of the person of every
citizen from unnecessary seizure and
arrest Before an officer can make
arrests under such circumstances he
must go get search warrant.
This was the gist of an impassioned
argument before Police Judge r. d.
Evans yestyday by former County At
torney JOHN =. Evers. He was appear
ing for II. Il. CChicken Shorty") Hat
field, charged with carrying n con-
cealed weapon.
Found Hcfty Pistol.
Hatfield was arrested by Officer F.
A. Francis Friday night in the busi-
ness section after the latter had dis
covered n hefty revolver protruding
from one of Shorty's pockets.
Francis said shorty attracted his
attention by his doubtful ability TO
he stopped him, shorty proceeded to
"cuss out the police force and every
body connected with Il. said Francis,
and intimatcd that he had a good no.
ton TO shoot up not only the force but
the police court as we'll
Attorney Evers spoke eloquently
and impassionedly on the sacred rights
of citizens and their personal liber-
ties, lie cited and quoted from the
constitution and from a United States
court decision in Kansas and one
down In South Carolina to suhstantiate
his claim that on officer canno,
search man, even tho he thinks he Is
armed, until he has first procured
search warrant.
But suppose that having made the
search. the officer discovers the man
is armed and is violating the law?"
interrupted Judge Evans. "Do you
maintain he cannot be punished?"
Argument Impressive, But
Yes. sir, Mr.. Evans maintained 1t
because he declared the officer had
no right to make such a search and
having made II, the evidence could not
be used against Shorty because n
man cannot be forced to testify against
himself
Mr.. Evers' argument was impress
sive but not convincing and Judge
Evans assessed fine of $50. Mr..
Evers said he would not appeal.
Shorty Hatfield is the father OF
young Vernon Hatfield. who was shot
and killed by members OF the police
force some months ago.

Norwich University and the War

From all indications, Norwich
University, the oldest military school
of any kind in the United States,
West Point excepted, which has
furnished more officers for our
Army for every war in which we
have been engaged since the war of
1912, West Point again excepted
will no doubt again live up to its
past record. Norwich is sending 35
percent of its undergraduates to the
Officers Training Camp at Platts-
burg, and other points, in addition
to supplying number of officers
for the Marine Corps, Navy, and
Regular Army. In addition to this,
fifteen undergraduates are now en-
gagged in giving military instruction
to Home Guards, High Schools, and
other military units. Ten under
graduates, who are too young for
the Plattsburg Training Camp, have
left the University to take up work
on the farm in assisting in the mat
ter of food production.
Norwich University is attempting
to continue it's academic courses, and
will carry out its full college sched-
ule for the year. The class attend.
ance has been greatly reduced, and
some classes have had to be abandon
ed, as there are no students for
them. For those. who are still in at.
tendance, no part of the academic
or military instruction is being neg,
lected.

STATE PRESS
Governor Graham.

Some close observers of the politi-
cal game in this state are quite keen
ly disappointed in Governor Ora
hams administration, or, at least,
in certain phases of it. They believe
that, after delivering the ablest IN
augural of a generation, the Cover
nor has fallen considerably below
the standard he set for himself. The
feeling undoubtedly exists backed
by considerable proof, that, know
ing the game of politics so well, the
Governor has played it for all it is
worth, and has not been quite as
much of a statesman as his inaugural
address would have led US to expect.
The Governor, aided by the ablest
men of both major parties in the
Legislature, succeeded in construct
ing a machine of government which,
with the proper appointees TO work
it, should prove of inestimable bene-
fit to the state. When it came to
manning this machine, however, the
Governor fell back on his long years
of experience in Montpelier and
sometimes forgot special qualifica-
tons for a certain office and chose
men whom he knew to be strong pc,
litically. Mr.. Graham has been a
far better governor than most men
could be, but we don't believe he
has been as good a fighter, as big .
statesman, as Horace F. Graham has
it in him to be.-Burlington News

A Farmer Who Raises His Own
Grain.

Edison Connell of Newport Center
raises grain on his own farm to feed
his stock and says he isn't doing only
about half as we'll as he ought TO do.
The following is his letter publish
ed in the Daily Caledonian:
81 have farm of ITO acres and
usually winter about 80 cows, al
though | could keep 40 or so. Be-
sides crops Of oats, peas and barley,
which raise for grain crops, | cut
on an average 100 tons of hay. Dur
ing the winter | feed dairy cows
mostly clover and some corn. 1t re-
quires about one ton of grain per
year for a COW. use barley in
grain for cows to take the place of
corn, and grind it with the oats and
peas. For the 30 head kept during
the winter | have bought only two
tons of grain besides what Praise,
and | keep all registered Jerseys,
and find that with plenty of clover
and some alfalfa that | can keep my
stock in good condition.
In regard to raising the crops |
would say that pillow about 40 acres
each year, and my years of expert
ence have taught me that it is best
to pillow seven inches deep, harrow
ing it thoroughly four or five times
with a double action disc harrow be-
fore putting in the grain. | find
that deep blowing and thorough
discing take the place of fertilizer.
| have always used acid phosphate
as fertilizer for barley but hereafter
| shall use no fertilizer on any
grain but wheat, because it makes
the grain so heavy that it lodges and
spoils.
Beside the grain consumed by
my own stock | have sold over 5000
worth for seed. | wish everyone to
understand that | am not boasting,
and have done only about half as
we'll as ought and intend to do.
My farm was rented for eight years,
and have not yet gotten it up to
the state of fertility DESIRED"
What Mr.. Cornell has done other
farmers can do, and Vermonters
should take up this and increase
their farm products and not rely on
western grown grain.

1t is wonder to some of us why
Judge Lund was not re-appointed
municipal court judge for Essex
county. Of course there may be
reasons of which the Herald is not
acquainted, but from a general view
point it would seem, that in this case,
the able, clear headed administration
of this office on the lines of justice
and equity, with several rulings
of vital Importance to the safety OF
the public, which Judge Lund has
given, should be good and sufficient
reasons for his reappointment. In
saying this the Herald cast no re-
Elections on the present incumbent,
Judge Brown, rather it is commend
atory in that he should be selected
to take up the work so ably carried
out by Judge Lund.

The 81. Johnsbury Daily Caledonian
has passed its first year and just be-
gun to grow. 1t has had an able
hand to guide it over the critical
first year, and will need the same
careful and farsighted management
to keep it out of the pitfalls for
some years to come. 1t is rumored
that Editor Bigelow has congress
sional ambition and is charging the
political wires so they will pull his
way. We don't know--rumor is a
tickle jade, but we do know that it
would be pretty near a death blow
to the year-old Daily Caledonian to
lose Brother Bigelow. Bah! It's
nonsense. Editor Bigelow is too
much in love with his profession;
he's too loyal, earnest and active a
newspaper man to accept political
plumb with no assurance of continu-
ed offerings. Here's hoping Brother
Bigelow won't desert the Daily Gale
DOMAIN. It's mighty fine youngster
and has brilliant future.

They strengthen the weak, ailing
kidneys, improve their action, enable

There is accumulating evidence
that Governor Graham isplaying the
political game for all it is worth and
for the benefit of "Uncle Horace. +"
We are not taking exceptions to this.
1t is a work he has followed out ever
since he has been state official, and
he is but walking in the footsteps of
his predecessors, and no harm is
likely to come to the state through
this course of action, but it does not
harmonic with the propaganda Of
the prediction campaign or the ad-
ministration outline of "Uncle Hor-
ace" who was put upon a ped
estal of political righteousness, pat
ted on the shoulder and acclaimed
the peoples champion and heralded
as Uncle Horace he knows" Yes,
he knows" all right, and the gaff
worked and landed a gulible public.
1t is now wise policy to strengthen
his fences and the people can rest
assured that "Uncle Horace he
knows" how. We are an admirer
of Horace F. Graham but we do not
believe his political righteousness is
of a capacity to sink self out of
sight, nor is he any better than hun
dreds of other Vermonters. He has
always looked out for his own inter-
ests and this has been especially en-
phasized ever since he refused PEREZ
val w. Clement a peep inside the of
flee of state auditor. Horace F. Gra-
ham has made a good governor but
like officials in general he has not
made as good as he might or as the
people had right to expect.

Some people think that the agita-
ton of increased crops and the spirit
of plant the waste places, will result
in Ian over-production. This is a
good deal like crossing a bridge be-
fore we come to it, and is the spirit
of pessimism. There is not the least
fear of over-production. Vermont
farmers are level headed. They will
not all turn to planting potatoes or
beans, but will plant general line
as formerly, only increase this all
they can. Amateur agriculturists
and home gardeners may plant all po-
tates or all beans but it will not in
the state of present needs make an
over-production. If you want to
plant all potatoes, or all beans, for
heavens sake plant 'em. Don't let
the fear of over-production keep you
from working the hoe and tilling the
soil. They will all be needed.
