The Third Liberty Loan in Essex
County started with Canaan passing
her quota the first day, Saturday the
9Th. At 8 o'clock in the evening this
little town in the extreme northeast
corner of the state rolled up a total
of $12,800. This was due largely to
the fine system outlined by the
county chairman, L. B. Jones, and
the generalship of H. D. Marshall,
the town chairman. Other towns in
the county have done fine but Canaan
gets the honor flag and was the first
town in the state to go cover the
top" on the Third Liberty Loan.
Winooski and Burlington followed
and have an honor flag but to Canaan
belongs the honor of the banner
town in Vermont.

Lenroot was elected senator from
Wisconsin over Davies the Democrat
candidate and Berger the socialist.
Davies and Lenroot represented the
real red blooded Americans who are
backing the government in this
war. Berger is a peace at any
price advocate and would deliver US
body and soul to the Kaiser. 1t is
about time the government sorted
the sheep from goats and put this
Berges socialist element where it
could do less harm. When we are
dealing with such people it is good
policy to follow the tactics of David
Harum to "do the other fellow and
do him fust."
Col. Harvey undiscovered Wood
row Wilson as a presidential candi-
date and now advocates his election
for third term, does not hesitate
to place the blame for unsatisfae-
tory and delayed war work up to the
president for appointing and retain
ing incompetent heads of depart
ments. Only those who know the
work and measure up to the Job
should direct these great branches
of government work.

dent of the international Union of

doned by President Wilson. We be-
lieve California knew better about
this case than President Wilson, and
he should have kept his hands out of

1t is claimed our shipping is doing
but 30 percent efficient work under
government management when I'M
der private management it was 100
percent efficient. The railroads of
the country are the same way. If
there had been appointed one of the
great railroad presidents who knew
the entire business instead of Nc
Adoo, secretary of the treasury, to
mould the roads into a smooth run
ming system there would have been
much more accomplished. Carrying
troops, supplies and munitions to the
seaports and to Europe is business
not a political proposition, and it
would have been wise to have born
this in mind. Time and experiment.
ing may meet the demands upon our
great carrying power, but oh, what
a sacrifice of lives and waste of
money. Business does not mix with
politics and keep up its ratio of eff
cheney.

Farmers Raise More Wheat

1t was not so many years ago when
Vermont Farmers raised a wheat
crop as regularly as corn and potato
crops. 1t was good nourishing wheat
too, and the bread, doughnuts pies
and cakes made from this home
grown wheat would be Injuries to-
day. 1t is true the milling of home
grown wheat made not quite so
white flour but the whole goodness
of the wheat came back to the farm
and the flour, coarse flour, graham,
middlings and bran all were used at
home and in many farm home very
little was paid out for western flour
1t needs but little effort on the part
of the farmer to again make wheat
one of the permanent crops of the
farm. 1t is as easily grown as any
grain and the harvesting is not diff
cult. Every farmer should put in a
field Of wheat. This would release
thousands of bushels of wheat for
our army and the allies and make
the farmer independent of the wcs-
tern crop. There is plenty of land
here. for acres are going to waste
that could be made to grow crops for
the home market. Help is scarce, is
the cry on every hand. Yes. but
help was scarce in the days when the
fathers made the wilderness into
productive farms. There is no time
to waste on excuses, the only rem
edy that will help is to buckle the
belt a little tighter and get down to
a steady pull altogether, and no one
thing will help more than food, and
nothing will make this more sure
than raising more crops at home.
Plant, plant every possible foot of
ground you can. Grow needful food
.stuffs, grow more wheat.

SEE END OF
WAR WITH COMING
OF YANKEE SOLDIERS

"One Of the train coaches over here

American street cars" said Private
Elmer J. Berg in letter received yes
terday by his mother. Mrs, Joseph
Berg, of 812 North G street
And the coaches are marked 10

over here is not like the U. S. way.
Il am feelig fine; the weather is
fine. We only stayed at our first stop
one week, then they gave us three
days rations and started us on our
way.
"The other day we had to get out
and clear four cars that had piled up
on the track. They do not know what
a wreck train is here. Use an engine
and a large rope.
There are a number Of German
prisoners here and when they pass it
makes a fellow eager for revenge.
They look and act just as our home
papers tell, like tribe o. savage
beasts They do not have the pride
and self respect that our boys have

of soldiers and none of them can COM

are right.

thanks and commendadion of General
Gouraud himself. For your services
on the Ourcq your division was offic-
tally complimented in a letter from

To your success all ranks and all
services have contributed, and l de-

command my appreciation of his de-
voted and courageous effort
However, our position places a bur
den OF responsibility upon us which
we must strive to bear steadily for

rades who have fallen, we owe the
sacred obligation of maintaining the
reputation which they died to estab-
lish. The influence Of our perform
ance upon our enemies cannot be over
estimated for we were one of the first
divisions sent from our country to
France to show the world that Am
orleans can fight.
Hard battles and long campaigns lie
before us. Only by ceaseless vigilance
and tireless preparation can we fit
ourselves for them. urge you. there

TO RELIEVE CATARRH,
CATARRHAL DEAFNESS
AND HEAD NOISES

Persons suffering from catarrhal
deafness, or who are growing hard of
nearing and have head noises, will be
glad to know that this distressing
aHllction can usually be successfully
treated at home by an internal medi-
cine that in many instances has effect
ed complete relief after other treat
ments have failed. Sufferers who
could scarcely hear have had their
hearing restored to such an extent
that the tick of a watch was plainly
audible seven or eight inches away
from either ear. Therefore, if YOU
know of someone who is troubled with
head noises or catarrhal deafness. cut
out this formula and hand it to them
and you may have been the means
OF saving some poor sufferer perhaps
from total deafness. The prescription
can be prepared at home and is made
as follows:
Secure from your druggist OF. Par
mint Double Strength). Take this
home and add to it a pint of hot
water and little granulated sugar;
stir until dissolved. Take one table
spoonful four times a day.
Parmint is used in this way not
only to reduce by tonic action the in
fiammation and swelling in the Eu-
stachian Tubes, and thus to equalize
the air pressure on the drum, but to
correct any excess of secretions in the
middle ear and the results it gives
are nearly always quick and effective
Every person who has catarrh in
any form. or distressing rumbling,
kissing sounds in their ears, should
give this recipe trial-Adv.

will be the great test of a life and death
struggle on the Western front. In the
everyday walks OF life, it Is the spring
time that brings i'll health. One Of the
chief reasons why the run down man
finds himself in q bad state OF health in
March or April, is because he has spent
nearly all his hours for the past four or
five months penned up within the walls
of house, factory or office. 1t is the rea-
son for our diminished resistance that
is, lack of outdoor life, coupled with
perhaps over-eating, lack OF good exer-
else, insufficient sleep, and constipation.
In other words, we keep feeding the
furnace with food but do not take out
the rclinkers,H and cur fire does not burn
brightly. Always keep the liver active.
There is nothing better for health than
taking an occasional mild laxative, per-
haps once week such a one as you
can get at any drug store, made up Of
May-apple, jalap, aloes, (sugar- coated,
tiny, easily taken), which has stood the
test of fifty years of approval-namely,
