An Essex Junction restaurant
keeper has been fined for breaking
the rules of the license under which
he operated, and a Berlin, N. H., bak-
er has been fined for having in his
possession more flour than the gov
eminent allowed, and in addition was
compelled to put card in the Win
dow stating that the concern had
paid fine. Food conservation rules
are to be followed more and more
closely in public places and the pri-
vate consumer will soon need to
watch out for his action.

Saving Through Diamond.

The old proverb about diamond cut
diamond used to be true, but today a
diamond can be sawed through by a
thin disc of phosphor copper revolv-
ing about 5000 times minute. For
many years all diamonds had to be
sent to Amsterdam, where the Jews
had a monopoly of the trade of dia-
mond cutting. Even the Cullinan dia-
mond was sent there to be "cleft" in
two.

Revise the Vermont Quotas.


with the war is put on in Vermont
there ought to be revision of the
estimates for each town and city in
the state on which the quotas are
based. The quotas are based on the
population of 1910 as shown by the
u. S. census. Those figures are now
wrong in nine cases out of ten. A
few towns and cities may actually be
larger than they were in 1910; scat
tering towns may be holding their
own; but the majority of the places
have fallen short of the census fig
ures. Indeed some of the towns are
losing population at an alarming
rate. This is due in part to the de-
mands being made by the United
States for men in the service; due, in
part to the slowing down of local in
dustries; but still more accounted for
by reason of the lure of big wages
in cities of Southern New England,
where war munition shops are being
worked to the limit of their capacity.
which recounts the movements in the
towns without reading of the depart

in week or so by his family to the
scene of his new employment. We
have in mind one town in particular
whose local industry is well-nigh par
alyzed and whose population is fast
dwindling under these numerous calls
for service and for labor; yet this
town is asked to raise just as much
money for the various causes as if it
had maintained it's population or, at
least, had lost no more in proportion
than it's neighbors.
1t is manifestly unfair to ask these
towns which are losing population
every day, while other towns are
gaining or holding their own, to raise
quotas based on the 1910 census. The
people are STRUGGLING along under a
heavy local handicap because of in
creasing business and they have to
handicap themselves still more be-
cause of decreasing business and thew
have to handicap themselves still
more to meet these quotas which are

Whether seed corn raised in Mis-
souri, will mature on Wayne county
soil, is a question that farmers Of this
locality will have to study carefully
before they purchase it for seed pur-
poses from the carload that is to be
distributed by E. S. Martindale of
Greensboro.
The car is being shipped to Wayne
county through the efforts of c. Hen
ry, Purdue University, assistant coun-
ty agricultural leader for Indiana.
In a letter written to Martindale,
Henry makes the claim that Missouri
seed corn will grow in Indiana and
produce the crop without trouble.
Martindale declares, however, that
corn raised on Southern soil has been
thoroughly tested by the farmers and
it has been proven that 1t will not
mature.
Advises Caution.
He Therefore advises the farmers
who purchase the corn, which is to be
sold by him at $5 per bushel, and
without any profit, to bear this fact
in mind. "The farmers themselves
know that Missouri raised seed corn
will not mature as far north as this
said Mr.. Martindale, land I don't
want them to blame me If they pur-
chase this corn and find that their
crop this year is a failure"
Owing to a mistake in the telegram
sent him, Martindale did not know that
Missouri corn was being shipped.
Other Seed Corn.
A car load Of seed corn was recent
ly sold at Centerville by Joseph Dear
dorf, proprietor of the elevator there,
but this was grown in Sullivan coun-
ty, Indiana, and is a very excellent
brand for seeding purposes. This
corn was sold at S6 per bushel
Mr.. Dearborn told the Palladium
over the long distance telephone that
farmers could secure Indiana grown
seed corn from c. C. Fisher. of Union
City, president of the Atlas State
bank there, who has arranged to sell
two car loads. This corn is being
sold at SO per bushel, but it is Indi-
ana grown and carefully sorted.

j. s. TO CALL
ON SELECTS
WITH SPEED
THIS YEAR
War Department Expected to

Within a Short Time.
MACHINERY IS READY
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, April 3.-Measures
to speed up the draft program are in
conten plation and an official an
nouncement is expected soon. The IN
tention is to meet the emergency in
France. For that reason 100000 to be
called this year will be called more
rapidly than was previously planned.
Reports that the draft would be
raised from 100000 men to 100000
were denied.
Official do not regard as possible
that more men will be sent abroad this
year than the department already has
arranged.
100000 are Under Arms.
There are now under arms here and
in Europe more than 100000 Amer
ican soldiers. The number will have
been raised to about 100000 by the
end of the year. counting drafted men.
volunteers and special technical forces
to be enlisted.
If it is possible to get a total OF
100000 men to France by January l
next, the best previous hopes Of the
war department will have been real
ized and there still will be force OF
almost equal size in training here. The
present effort Is directed more toward
getting the men to France early in the
year to meet the emergencies there
than toward increasing the number 20
be sent during the year.
Many factors. 1t was said, enter into
any proposal to increase the number
of men under training here. They
must be drawn largely from American
agricultural fields, and the allies sup
ply lines, as we'll as the Americans,
are largely dependent upon American
food and supplies.
War department officials said no ar
rangements were in sight looking to
call out more than the 100000, it was
planned to take into the service.
