The appointment of DR.. f. A. Stanley
to be superintendent of the Vermont
state hospital for the insane at Water
bury brings to this important position a
man who is quite conyersant with the in
stitution through II years association
with it, the last two years as first assist
ant superintendent; therefore, the confu-
sion which would have been brought
about had an outsider been chosen will
be avoided The routine of the institu.
tion can be continued in much the same
manner as it was conducted under the
administration of the late Superintend-
ent WATSON, allowing, at the same time,
slight latitude in the form Of service
as no two men would do similar duties
in exactly the same manner The people
of Vermont wish for Superintendent
Stanley full measure of success in the
immediate control Of the great institu-
ton and its hundreds of inmates, He is
entrusted with work Of considerable
magnitude.

The Service of the Swamp.

There is an inveterate prejudice
against swamps. Dry land is riches,
and clear water is a welcome gift, but
the combination Of the two in the form
of swamp is repugnant.
A swamp is looked on as rubbish left
in the process of matchmaking and
the vision of new heaven and a new
earth in the mind of the man of affairs
has all these rubbish swamps drained
and transformed into finished grassy
meadows. City builders urge that all
suburban swamps be dredged and their
mud contents resolved into their ele-
ments of grassy slope and clear lake
water. There is no place in their plans
for swamp. ...
The average mortal throws hostile
thoughts and other refuse at the
swamp. To the swamp's edge, the
average mortal brings his unlovely
wastage, his broken potsherds and bed
springs and dumps them in scorn, thus
making an eyesore Of what Nature in
tended as an eyesalve. For swamp
is beautiful to the appreciative eye
Miasma, Malaria, unwholesome night
air and ague fogs used to be charged
to the debit of the scapegOat marsh,
and still are by many. So we fill with
tin cans, baling wire, crippled stoves,
waste potatoes, ~corroded metal roofing
this supposed pest hole and think we
do humanity great favor, as did the
Hebrew of e old when he sang: "Moab
is my washpot. Over Edom do I cast
out my SHOE"
But the swamp is a wholesome and
necessary part Of this good earth. 1t
is sanctuary for useful birds, who
would vanish if the dividing line be-
tween earth and water were line and
not zone. It may not be desirable
to have so large proportion of swamp
to dry land as Minnesota holds; but it
might be dangerous to do away with
the swamp wholly. Our American
grandfathers used to consider forest
regret their folly.
An idea is prevalent in Minnesota
that a drainage ditch running in any
direction is the short route to the lost
gold mines of King Solomon, and un-
der this delusion much dizzy ditching
has been done. Some fine fish lakes
have been turned into swamps and
some swamps into deserts by reason Of
ill-placed bitches. It took the Creator
Of the world long time to make lakes
and marshes; and great wisdom ap-
pears in all this work. It would,
therefore, seem fit that in unmaking
these watery areas, the best engineer
ing counsel should be called into use.-

The 100000 Calf.

A new record in the sale of pure
bred livestock was made at Milwaukee
last week when bull calf of the Hol-
stein breed sold in public sale for the
astounding price Of 100000. Twelve
different breeders placed bids on this
calf until the price of $4,000 was
reached, after which time two bidders
competed with one another until the
final price Of 100000 was offered and
accepted. - >',"- '''' S: n.
We call particular attention to this
new record price for bure-bred animals
for the reason that some people are
likely to draw the wrong conclusions
from the facts in the case. This en-
ormous sum Of money was paid for
this calf because he came from an an
cestry Of known producers. with re-
Warren sheaf. [volume] (Warren, Marshall County, Minn.) 1880-current, 1918-07-17

markable records, and because the
scarcity of pure-bred stock of the best
quality is such that men of means are
willing to pay almost any price in or
der to secure what they want. 1t goes
without saying that the two final bid
ders in this sale were parties with un-
limited means. It is significant, how
ever, that twelve different breeders, at
PENDANTS at this sale, were willing to
pay as much as $4,000 for this calf,
which price probably comes nearer
representing the true value of the ami
NAL than the price which was really
paid for him.
The unfortunate feature in connec-
ton with these tremendous prices for
pure-bred stock lies in the fact that
farmers and smaller breeders looking
for foundation stock are likely to get
the idea that pure-bred stock is too
high-priced for them to buy. This is
not true. AS matter of fact, in the
same sale where this bull calf sold for
the record price, many very desirable
animals sold at prices ranging from
$500 to $500 each. The record price
was paid for strictly fancy pedigree
coupled with good individuality. 1t is
only the occasional pure-bred animal
that brings such prices. The real life
of the pure-bred stock business is the
trade which comes from the farmer
who purchases a sire or female in or
der to improve his herd. The prices for
even this sort of stock are high at the
present time, but not unduly high as
compared with the price of market
stOck.-The Farmer. -.

of a street, ilnfront of fast moving

an acciden NJ situation is one of
the most fl t$causes Of injuries.
The careff 6rl fer has this always in

Needless person may suddenly bob out
from behind them. He recognizes it as
quite possible that some one will come
suddenly in his path, and he is pre-

is the haste of the speedy driver to
get ahead of machines going at slow
er pace. It is terrible aggravation
to 25 mile an hour man, to have to
poke along behind the leisurely car
running Is. At the first chance he
slips ahead regardless whether the
road is wide enough or not. :
If at the moment he: tries to pass, a
machine is coming from the opposite
direction, conditions favorable to an
accident are created. The three ma
chimes approach each other much fas-
ter than anyone thinks. It takes a
good wide road to hold them if they

quently occurs that the speeding ma
chine, if it is a heavy car, will side
swipe the slower machine it was try
ing to pass. If that happens, the peace
able little fellow going his own way
inoffensiyely, is crowded into the ditch
and an accident results.
These are two of the many conditions
that lead to many wholly needless &C.
