together with the kinds and varieties of
seed wanted or for sale.
The forms upon which the census is to

Representative of Department of AgrI-
culture to Assist Extension Service.

C. II. Kyle. of the office of corn in
vestigston of the United States depart
ment of agriculture. arrived in Burlington
Sunday as n representative Of the ma
tional seed stocks committee to assist the
extension service at the University Of
Vermont and State Agricultural College in
ferretng out supplies of well-matured corn
in Vermont which can be used for seed
purposes.
This work will be carried on In co-opera-
ton with the county agricultural agents,

forward the same to the extension service,
to be tested for termination qualities. All
corn having n termination test of IS per
cent. or better will be listed and furnished
to those who make inquiry as to sources
Of seed
The seed corn situation at tho present
time Is "A very serious one, owing to the
| carly frosts, the very wet season and
extremely cold weather.
Any farmers having a supply of we'll
matured crib corn should get In touch with
the county agent as early as possible apo
have him take a sample Of this corn to be
| tested. II this tests above IS per cent. Il
should be saved for seed rather than fec
at the present time.

STATE heaitn Omcers coming TO Buf.
lingtOn for Annual Meeting.
A health officers school will be held
in Burlington on May 81. 20 and 90,
following action taken Friday night at
a meeting of the State board of health.
AS there are PAT health officers in the
State. and attendance is obligatory, the
school will be of considerable size. No
school was held last year on account of
the war preparations, thus making the
only omission in IS years. The school
will be pretty nearly a State affair as
most of the speakers will be Of the
board or heads Of departments. The
school will take up mainly elementary
instruction.
| During the last year a number of
new health officers have been added
and many of the health officers have
gone into the army or hold commits
time.
The report Of the secretary Of the
board shows some smallpox to have
been brought into the State during the
last month. There are seven cases and
all broke out in lumber camps. The
importation was traced directly to New
| Hampshire.
A record Of new cases for the last
month shows measles 80. smallpox 7,

nothing out Of the ordinary for a peddler
on the streets of New York to make a
hundred dollars per day. With the 195
ounces Of heroin which had been seized on
the train many thousands Of dollars could
have been made.
In order to enforce the law the respond
ents must be punished severely. mod
crate punishment would not be sufficient
because Of the enormous profits. There
was not the slightest doubt of Lawrence's
guilt aand the punishment must be suffi-
Gent to drive him out of the business, or
at least take him to some district not pre-
sided over by Judge Howe. The court
stated that It would be difficult to imagine
a worse case than that against Lawrence.
The court knew that he had wife and
three children. The wife and one baby
were in the court room at the time. 1t
often happens that justice works greater
hardship on the innocent than on the
guilty, but that could not be regarded as
any reason for not dispensing it.

BRADSTREETS VERMONT
WEEKLY TRADE REPORT

manufactures of machinery have an alb
normal business and are driven to main
shipments. 1t is estimated that there is in
the granite section awaiting shipping ia
cilities upwards of three-quaarters of a
million dollars worth of finished material.
Efforts are being made to try and relieve
this condition as far as possible. With
the congested freight conditions more is
being put up to the express companies to
handle, and in some instances it is re-
ported that there is difficulty in handling
all of the express consignments Winter
and cold weather conditions surround re-
tail merchants trade. There has been
fairly active trading at the stores in the
larger places, but in the rural towns the
volume of business done is below normal

thaws of the past month. however. did
much to reduce the depth of the snow in
the woods.
With the farmers who have maple or
chards those in tho mountains report 1t al
most impossible to get into their sugar
orchards. Others more favorably located
have commenced preliminary work. The
high prices offered for sugar this year
have stimulated considerable activity.
Manufacturers of sugar apparatus have
been seriously handicapped by reason of
inability to obtain raw material. which
has reduced volume Of production. There

FOOD SITUATION
CONTINUES GRAVE
Washington Holds Out No Hope
for Immediate Improvement,
According to State Admins
traitor Cushing, Just Back
from the National Capital.

Acting State Food Administrator ]. I.
Gushing. who has just returned from
conference in Washington, was in the city
Friday and spoke of the gravity OF the
food situation, which remains about the
same as a few weeks ago. He looks Tor
no change In the regulations regarding
the distribution and use of foods. More
over. these regulations will be Strictly
enforced and any violation of them Will
be dealt with summarily. as the time Tor
leniency has passed. Even now neid
agents are out over the country to ascer-
tain II the bakers are violating the so-2I
law in the manufacture Of bread. These
agents analyze the bread and an infraction
Of tho regulations by n baker probably
will mean the closing Of his shop.
In Washington the gravity of the food
situation among the allies was strongly
impressed on him, and 1t is certain that a
strict aconomy must be practiced " this
country is TO ship the necessary foodstuffs
abroad. If the food cannot be gotten to
the allies their morale will be endangered
and that will bring the most disastrous re-
suits. He thinks that the worst will be
over in about four months and that the
present regulations will go out Of effect
then automatically.
AL the present time the supply OF SUD-
stitutes has increased considerably. while
the supply of wheat flour is more plentiful
1t Is probable that allo.ments will be
made to the different States. according &c
their population, in cases OF serious food
shortage. In the opinion Of Mr.. Gushing
the $3.50 method of distribution of flour
has saved the country from serious
troubles and now every State has these
regulations.
The stories that the United States 4:

PLAN
At THE SHERWOOD
Constantly Increasing Cost Of
Food with No Promise of Re.
lief Makes Necessary a Change
in Method of Conducting Din
ing Room.

Beginning Monday, the New Sherwood
substituted the European system in its
dining room for the American plan.
Persistently increasing cost Of food is
the reason for the change of system. Mr..
Steele says in the announcement: I'VE
constantly hoped for change in the
national food situation that would permit
the continuance of the popular American
plan hotel under conditions fair to both
the patrons and the management. The
immediate future holds no promise of re-
lief from the abnormal high prices that
now prevail. AS a matter of fact, the cost
of food material is constantly increasing
and each succeeding order of the food ad.
ministration but adds to the burden"
In citing some instances. Manager Steele
says: ''The food administration requires
us to use 80 per cent. substitute flour with
the 80 per cent. wheat flour we are per-
mitted to purchase. The regulated price
of wheat flour is s11.7O per barrel. The
prices of substitute f1ours. which are not
regulated. are: Corn flour. s13.25 per
barrel; barley flour. s14.5O per barrel; oat
flour. s14.75 per barrel: rice flour. SIS per
barrel: potato flour. s27 per barrel The
price of the best wheat -four was s4.25 per
barrel in 1913, and of corn flour $3.75.
Poultry, fish and RESPONSIBILITIES for
meat on meatless days and at meatless
meslls-are from 80 per cent to 50 per cent
higher than at any time within the past 80
years. Linen, china and glassware are
from 100 per cent. to $50 per cent. higher
than four years ago, and poorer in
quality"
In a nutshell, the object of the change
is to eliminate waste in food, which. 1t 10
believed. can be better accomplished under
the European system of providing only
that which is wanted
