VERMONT NOTES.

A schedule of prices on some of the
principal commodities to be followed
by the Brattleboro grocers and meat
dealers, has been prepared by a COM
mittee in cooperation with the local
food administrator there.
After four days of resumed activi-
ties following the epidemic of Spanish
influenza in Enosburg Falls, the lid
was again clamped on by Health Of

of another outcropping of the dread
disease. Twelve new cases had de-
veloped.
Rev. D. J. O'Sullivan for 81 years
rector of St. Mary's Catholic church,
at St. Adams, died there Thursday.
He was 60 years of age and was
prominent in the Burlington diocese
for AZ years. He represented st. AL
bans city in the Vermont assembly
for two sessions and was one Of three
recommended to Rome for the bish-
opric of Burlington in 1897.
Robert Warm, the Fort Ethan AL
len trooper convicted of Staying Jen-
ME Hemingway, his sweetheart, at
ST. Adams, August IL, 1917, was
granted a new trial by the supreme
court in an opinion read by Justice
Seneca Haselton, on the grounds sole
ly that one of the jurors had bet the
cigars before the trial that Warm
would be convicted. Warm is under
a ten to IA years sentence in the state
prison for manslaughter.

when the work began of cleaning out
the tangled mass of ruins, which re-
suited from the $1,OOO,OOO fire that
destroyed the first plant, moulded

quantities. The night shift will
probably be put to work at once and
the amount of finished product will
be up somewhere near to where it
was before the fire.

The DETECTION of votes from Glenn
ent because of his pronounced local
option views was not as great as
many of his warmest friends expect
ed, and Mayo's prohibition call caught
few votes. Clement will make splen-
did reconstruction governor and the

This paper just imagines that Glenn
ent will be wise enough to keep his
hands off the proposition. AS the
states chief executive the legislation
of licensed alcoholic beverages out of
existence is without his province.
Clement has a chance to win friends
as well as give the state sound adj
ministration if he will become little
more democratic and not harp too
much upon few pet notions.

Raise More Sheep,
Whatever problems come to dead
lock in Montpelier next winter, it is
of the highest Importance that some
thing constructive be done to bring
back tt, hocks Of sheep which were
once tn ride and profitable property
of the state.
Vermont once had 100000 sheep;
now there are about 100000 in the
state. Maine once had 100000 sheep,
have shrunk from $4,000 to 10000.
New England used to have 3,433 900
more sheep than at present. Yer
mont's shrinkage is perhaps the most
| significant, because VermOnt's pas
lures are particularly fitted for sheep.
There are many reasons, apart from
patriotic reasons, why Vermonters
should raise more sheep. Some of the
more obvious are included herewith:
! 1. The first investment for stock,
building and pasture is low;
: 2. Sheep will eat weeds and would
therefore improve much waste land;
! 3. They return to the soil very
large amount Of plant food;
| 4. Sheep can be raised and market
ed without grain ration;
5. They produce two cash crops,
wool and mutton;
| 6. A minimum of labor and main
tenance is required for sheep.
7. Sheep on farm take care of the
fresh meat problem;
8. During the war and reconstruc-
ton, Vermont needs more sheep and
more wool for it's own consumption,
and a shortage is certain;
| 9. Sheep are of hardy breed partic-
ularly suited to Vermont's climate;
| 10. Our cut-over lands could be pro-
ducing profits instead of debts if
sheep were turned in to Craze.
These reasons are really elemental,
and there are plenty more of them,
but no Vermonter who has given the
subject any thought can fail to see
what 100000 would mean on Yer
mont hills.
There have been many reasons al
legged for the failure of Vermonters
to go into the sheep-raising business,
but the most apparent and obvious is
unquestionably the runagate cur, the
worthless, vicious, unaccompanied,
uncontrolled and unframed dog, prac-
tically masterless, which ranges the
roads and fields and may at any time
find an idle mate. Then focks may
tremble for their safety.
! The legislature elect must take no
tice of this situation and be prepared
with suitable remedy. The Herald
believes that excellent compromise
measures were reported from last
sessions general committee and sug-
gests that every representative and
senator elected yesterday give his at
tention to this problem as one that is
of direct importance to the agricul-
ture of Vermont.-Rutland Herald.

PEACE AND CHANGES

After the noise and parades and
bonfres and patriotic addresses and
first flush of victory have died away
what will victory and peace mean to
the people of Orleans county? 1t is
all we'll and good to sound high phras-
es, write long editorials, generalize
and eulogize, but for the readers of
this paper, the surrender of Germany
will mean more than that. In it's
final analysis it will mean changes,
great changes. AS the coming of the
war meant changes, it's close will
mean changes. No home will escape
it's effect as no home escaped the eff
feet of it's coming.
What are the changes to be?
Immediately it means that those
draftees who have been planning soon
to leave their homes and positions for
training, will not be called. That will
change in a small degree the labor
situation.
Prices will begin a readjustment,
Undoubtedly some prices will go still
higher and commodities be scarcer as
the peoples Of the conquered nations
are to be fed and the food supply of
those nations is tremendously scarce,
Other commodities will go down as
the conquered nations produce GER
tain staples in quantities which allow
export.
Other changes will come. Not rap
idly but surely. Business will be af-
fected Homes will be affected. The
boys will be coming home. Church
and society will be affected. And
any who are not ready, alert and will
ing to adjust themselves to the
changes will find themselves cast
aside.
War times were momentous times.
Peace times will be still more momen-
tous. From now on, the world, and
Orleans county with it, will become
a new world. New things will come
into being and old things will be cast
away. Great times are ahead. But
great times are almost always peril
Gus times.
Let us prepare for the great things
which are ahead, enter into the spirit
and become part of great advanc-
ing age.
Orleans county has it's part to do
as it has had it's part to do in war. 1t
did that part nobly. Let us play the
part in peace.

Mr., Clements Majority,


Comparison of the majority of H.
7o1 given Percival w. Clement in this
weeks election with some other off
year results in this state shows that
under the conditions the Republican
margin was well sustained This is
especially true when one considers
the number of young voters now out
side of the state in the service of the
nation in this war, and the effects of
the epidemic in preventing measures
to get out a larger vote.
In 1890 Governor C. S. Pages ma
jority was 1868. In 1892 Governor
L. K. Fuller's majority was 1886. In
1894 Governor Woodbury's majority
was 27,811. In 1896 Governor Josiah
