RABBI pAPK|N TO LEAVE
Goes This Week to New Bedford.
Mass, He Announces.
Resigned Two Weeks Ago, but Fact
Was flushed Up-Here About Five
Years-successor Not Yet
Selected.

Rabbi Hyman Papkin, who has been in
charge Of the Archibald street, Hyde
| street and North Winooski avenue syna-
gogues for about five years past has
| resigned to accept an offer of a SIMILAR
position In New Bedford. Mass. He will
| leave probably to-day for his new field.
he says.
Rabbi Papkin's resignation was sub
mitted about two weeks ago, but the fact
was kept quiet because the date when
he was to leave was indefinite and the
question Of his successor had not been
considered.
Rabbi Papkin came here from the
Jewish community in Utica. N. Y. where
he was rabbi. four years ago last Septem-
Der. The community here has not grown
much. SO that the membership of his con-
grcgations has remained practically sta
tionary. but improvements have been
made to the three synagogues here when
necessary. and Rabbi Papkin has exerted
q strong influence over his lock.
AS In most of the large Jewish COM
munities, however, there have been two
factions, representing the conservative
and the radical wings Of Judaism. The
former consists of the old. orthodox be-
levers, who have been loath to change
the forms OF the past. Rabbi Papkin has
belonged to this wing. rather than the
other. The more radical wing consists of
the younger element Of the local COM
munity. including many of the most in
fuential and well-to-do Hebrews in the
city. In the larger cities 1t has been
possible to avoid serious differences, by
having two or more rabbits. The local
community. however. has been rather
small for this. and the conservative and
radical elements have not always worked
together.
Rabbi Papkin announces as the reason
OF his going the fact that the better posi-
ton was offered to him. The New Bed
ford community consist of about l,2OO
Jewish families. The city is one of the
most thriving In eastern Massachusetts
and famous old fishing town. Rabbi
Papkin will have charge Of three Of the
synagogues there.
He is sorry. he says, to part from his
friends here. although glad Of course to
be more attractivcly situated

BRADSTREETS VERMONT
WEEKLY TRADE REPORT

Bradstreet's Burlington ONCE reports
granite manufacturers are better sup
piled with business than they were earlier
IN the year. The labor problem with
them has interfered with the production
desired. There is large demand for all
KINDS Of granite tools and equipment: in
fact, wholesalers and jobbers speak of the
demand as above record production.
quarry owners note a steady demand for
monumental granite in blocks and are
operating quarries to capacity. The
trouble over transportation is not as
acute as earlier but there is still some
trouble experienced.
Collections In this line are below what
they generally are at this period of the
year. The falling Off in volume of build
ing work is felt to some extent by lum-
Der dealers but more particularly by re-
tail merchants in hardware.
reports from the slate belt indicate not
as large volume Of new business as was
shown a few months ago, but the market
Is active and is making inquiries, and
manufacturers in this line are optimistic
regarding fall and late summer business
Retail merchants in seasonable goods note
the warmer weather Of the week has ben
ented trade. Midsummer sales are being
well patronized. Summer tourist business
Is opening up slowly. owing to lateness
OF the season. The past week, however,
has witnessed more travel and more ac-
tivity in this line. Automobile parties are
more in evidence.
The harvesting Of the hay crop Is we'll
under way. Yields from the fields are
heavy. Warmer weather has done much
to improve general conditions. although
there Is room for improvement.
The condition Of pasturage is the best
1t has been for some time. Reports from
diaries show larger receipts and a good
demand for all kinds of products. The
farmer Is finding a ready sale for every
thing he brings into the market.
One mercantile failure is reported for
the week, small one. the first one of the
month 80 far.

Mr.. Carrigan has received from the farm
loan bank of Springfield. Mass, a list
OF names of farmers in the county who
have applied to the bank for loans.
The home demonstration agent, whom
1t was hoped to secure by July l. Is
expected to arrive before long.
The State Experiment station. says the
agent, increased its potato production 60
per cent. by spraying with Bordeaux mix

SAVE GARDEN SURPLUS.

vegetable Food Not Eaten Fresh Should

The crop Of vegetables from home gar.
dens promises to be unusually large ir
practically all sections of the country
this year. says the United States depart.
ment Of agriculture in a statement just
Issued. Home gardeners. therefore, 1t is
pointed out. should begin now to plan
so that the products raised by them will
be used to the best possible advantage.
without waste.
There is likely to be an unusually
large production of vegetables from small
home gardens in most communities this
year." says the statement. Home gar
deners. therefore. should lay their plans
carefully SO that they will be in position
at the appropriate time to make efficient
use Of their garden produce. both by i'm
mediate consumption and by preservation
by canning. drying. or in other ways. SO
that no good food will be wasted.
"A very material saving can be effect
ed in the food bill in many instances by
having the meals consist more largely of
the fresh homegrown vegetables and less
extensively Of the non-perishable foods
bought from grocery stores. BY following
this plan. also, garden-owners will re-
uOns
perishable foods.
Even with liberal use in the family
diet in a fresh state, however, there will
be considerable SURPRISES of vegetables
from many home gardens These should
be saved in some way. Canning is the
method most usually employed, but it is
possible that cans and Jars cannot be OBJ
tained in sufficient quantities this year to
pack the surplus perishables. In such
cases many products easily can be pre-.
served by drying.
by this method surplus water Is driven
of by placing sliced products on trays in
the sun. over stove or before an cleo.
trio fan. The dried foods can be kept
perfectly in paper bags or boxes sufil-
GENTLY tight to exclude insects. Soaking
in water will bring the products back
to their original texture and
they may then be cooked like fresh veg
etables.
I'm putting up vegetables and fruits
for future use the home gardener may
ind the following suggestions useful:
III you can obtain cans and Jars only
In limited numbers, can tomatoes and
other vegetables which cannot be dried
easily. and such fruits as you prefer in
juicy form. Wherever possible concen-
sAesS cNSSuAoht AOOuSs SUCH as tOTudtOcS.
Preserve or jam the fruits and berries
which you prefer in that form, and put
them In glasses sealed with paraffin or
In wide necked bottles.
PUT fruit Juices in ordinary bottles.
DRY practically any common vegetable
except asparagus. eggplant. radishes.
lettuce and the like. and most fruits ex-
cept Strawberries and native grapes. The
more important Of the vegetables that
are usually dried are sweet-corn. snap
and string beans. shelled beans. shelled
peas. and the root crops. Tomatoes
though consisting in large part Of water
are dried successfully by many immi-
grants from southern Europe.
IT a considerable number of cans or
Jars are at your disposal so that vege-
tables may be canned be sure to include
the more nutritious such as green beans
and peas"

REDUCE HAVING COST
Sweep Rake Saves Labor and Time for
Eastern Hay Growers,

6oetefn Hay Growers.
Eastern hay growers who are confront
ed with the fact Of farm labor shortage
can get along with fewer men and can re-
duce the cost of haying by using the
sweep rake, say specialists of the United
states department of agriculture in

with Sweep Rake" A two-man crew.
using two sweep rakes and four horses
with the average length of haul in the
East. can In a given length Of time haul
to the barn and put into the NOV by sings
about double the amount of hay usually
handled by three-man crew working
with wagon. II the hay is to be stacked
In the field. three times the amount can
be handled. In this case the third man
will be needed on the stack.
Any boy capable of driving a pair of
horses can operate a weep rake and
handle considerably more hay in n given
time than man pitching by hand. On
many eastern farms only a small. amount
OF grass Is cut at one time because of the
uncertainty Of the weather. Where
sweep rakes are available more hay can
be cut and saved because of the rapidity
with which the hay may be hauled to the
stack or barn.
For farm conditions as found in the
Eastern States the specialists advise The
use OF the three-wheeled or four-wheeled
sweep rake. How to operate these simple
and inexpensive haying tools 10 explained

ABIDING TO. ]. Y. N. MUSEUM
Dean Perkins Exchanging Speci-
mems with Heye Museum, N. Y.
valuable East Indian Idol First Of
Many Objects from Museum Of the
American 1ndian-stOne Imple.
NJ ments in Exchange.

Valuable ethnologcal and anthropologi-
cal specimens are being added to the State
university museum, through the efforts of
Dean George H. Perkins. who Is exchang-
ing certain objects Of which he has dupli-
Gates with the Museum of the American
Indian, Of New York city. Professor Per-
kins. partly by reason Of his position as
State geologist, has been able to get to-
gether an unusual collection of Indian rel
les. In this work he has been aided by
various assistants, and for years refused
! to permit any of his specimens to leave
tho State. When the opportunity came
however. Of exchanging a number of In
dina stone implements of all sorts found
in Vermont, chiefly in the Champlain val
ley. for objects of which he had no speci-
mems. he was glad to avail himself of it.
He will exchange only duplicates and
take nothing from the State museum in
Montpelier.
The first of the objects from the New
York collector came two or three days
ago. 1t is an East Indian idol, standing
about two and one-half feet high and
weighing perhaps so or 60 pounds made
OF gray sandstone and deliberately carved.
Professor Perkins is not positive as to the
identity Of the subject, and is now await
ing an accurate description from the for
sner curators Of 1t. The idol is very old,
, ehu oedTs tangible marks OF having been
worshipped. 1t now occupies a place in
the museum.
Many more specimens from the Heye
museum have been promised, to be sent
probably next month when the objects
Will be moved into the museums magnif-
cent new building at 155th street and
Broadway. on the west side of New York
near the Hispanic and other museums
The new museum Is combining itself to OBJ
Jects concerning the American Indian,
ana has large funds at its disposal. 1t is
OFTEN obliged to buy entire collections,
which include only a few precious speci-
mems that 1t wants. In such cases it dis
poses of the other things by exchange or
otherwise.
The Algonquins left stone gouges, celts
or chisels axes. pottery, arrow and spear
points, etc., along the eastern shore of
Lake Champlain and elsewhere in Ver-
mont, many Of which are invaluable to the
couector. In exchange for such things,
Prof. Perkins asks for objects that would
heip to illustrate the course he gives in
anthropology. objects coming from many
parts OF the world. The Heye Museum
has shown disposition to be quite gener-
Gus. and the specimens it gives in ex-
change will cost the university practically
nothing.
