NORWICH PROFESSOR WRITES
MANUAL ON MILITARY LAW

A valuable contribution to the mill
tary literature of Vebmont has just
been published by the State under the
title of Military Law in Vermont. "
The preparation Of this manual is the
work of Major X. r. B. Flint, Profess
sor of Political Science in Norwich
University, and the subject matter is
based upon a series of lectures which
Major Flint delivered before the Off
GERS of the Vermont Volunteer Militia
when they were at Mortified for
training last summer. The handbook
presents in brief space those funda-
mental rules of military law, emanat-
ing from confusing number Of
sources, in accordance with which the
organized militia is established and
conducted. 1t also includes chapters
upon the nature, law and tactics of
riot duty. The work has been done
under the authority of the Adjutant
General Of Vermont and copies will be
through his Office to the
members of the Volunteer Militia

world will admire the pluck Of the
little government led by King Albert,
We dare scy that even a spark OF
admiration will rise in the breasts Of
the war lords who forced the Belgians
to relinquish all but a small area in
the extreme southwestern point of
their country. 1t may be that the de-
velopment of the Belgian military
power will be taken as an ominous
sign by those very same war lords-a
sign that when such small and OPP
pressed nation as Belgium can come
back there is likelihood of tremendous
surging power through the other and
larger allied nations, to say nothing
of the constantly developing power of
the United States. Small as the incl
dent is, it is nevertheless very hearten-
ing to the allies.-Barre Times.

MILK PRODUCERS PRICES
FIXED FOR APRIL 1918

The Regional Milk Commission foi
New England concluded its hearings
last week in Boston and returned the
folowings findings for the month of
April:
VOTED: That the price to the pro-
ducers for the month of April be Sc
per quart f. o. b. Boston, and that
prices to the family trade, wholesale
bottle trade, and bulk trade be the
same as for the past three months.
Upon motion it was
VOTED: That committee Of three
be appointed TO study and report a
surplus plan as soon as possible, and
that such plan be not operative until
approved by the interested parties,
and that, beginning April /, dealers
keep record of purchases and sales as
outlined by the Chamber of Commerce
surplus plan. The Commission APP
pointed Mr.. Allen, Mr.. Bird, and Mr..
O'Hare. Upon motion il was
VOTED: That no dealer after this
agreement shall cease to purchase
from any producer from whom he
purchased on January /, nor shall be
purchase from any producer from
whom he does not now purchase with
out securing the approval of the Com
mission.
II had been expected that prices
would be named for three months. The
dealers and producers were asked to
agree on plan for handling surplus,
or that part Of the milk not sold as
whole milk, but the dealers were un-
able TO agree among themselves, so the
commission appointed its own commit
tee with view to devising a plan
which it shall establish as part Of its
price fixing machinery Meantime
the dealers are not to readjust their
buying either by restricted purchases
or decreased prices without the con
sent Of the commission.

SIX IN A ROW

While my syrup kettle boils
! make my pencil go
To tell you story of
Six in a row.
The season of my story
Was divers years ago
When we sat in the kitchen,
Six in a row.
The setting of my story
Was where maple trees grow
And mother set the chairs for
Six in row.
While her syrup kettle boiled
Mother made the fire go
Cause twas hard for us to wait
Six in a row.
But when the syrup pudd'ned
I'd like to have you know
Twas ready to be eaten by
Six in row.
And mother took her ladle
And big pan of snow
And dipped it all over for
Six ip a row.
And she called it maple wax
And forked it from the snow
In good big saucerfuls for
Six in a row.
How did it taste TO us
That you'll never know
'Cept you were one of US

HOW HOG GUARANTY WORKS.

The following is the plan of the
Food Administration for stabilizing
the price of hogs:
For each 100 pounds of hogs, the
price should be 13 times the average
cost per bushel of corn fed into those
hogs. The cost of corn is computed
by taking the prices paid at country
stations in the leading corn states,
over a period of five months prior to
the time the hogs are marketed.
The price for October is based on
the average of corn fed to those hogs
during September, August, July, June
and May.
It has been said the new plan will
give higher price to the farmer, but
in a letter to H. G. Stuart, chairman
of the Agricultural Advisory Board,
Mr.. Hoover said:
81 am not disposed to quarrel with
just profits to the farmer, and in any
event, the application of such formulas
must be rough and ready, and de-
signed to attain their real end-jus-
tice and the STIMULATION OF
PRODUCTION.

BAT AT HOME EVERYWHERE
Species of the Race Vary as Widely
as Their Habits-Not Especially
Deadly to Mosquitoes.

AS a group bats are of worldwide
distribution except in the inhOspita-
bic polar regions. They are real man,
mails and present an extraordinary
variation in size, from tiny little crea-
lures, almost as small and fragile as
butterflies, to the huge fruit bats, with
a spread of wings like that Of a wild
goose,
The heads OF bats are strangely
sculptured, some being smoothly con-
toured and shaped like those of little
foxes; others appear like miniature
bulldogs; and still others have curious
cartilaginOus nose-leaves upright on
the muzzle. Some have the entire face
nodded into a hideOuS mask repuIsive
to look upon.
Their habits are equally varied to
meet special conditions: Some are
eaters of fruit alone; others feed sole
" upon insects, while others bite other
mammals, including man, for the pur-
pose Of drinking the oozing blood, upon
which they subsist. All are nocturnal,
but some appear late in the afternoon,
before the sun sets. Most species,
however, wait until the shades Of
night have covered the earth.
Throughout the world the majority
Of the species Of bats feed upon in
sects, but there are many fruit eat
ers. The teeming insects and plant
life Of the tropics afford a never-fail-
ing food supply, and the center Of
abundance of these animals is found
there. In some localities between 20
and 30 kinds OF bats exist, with such
vast numbers of individuals that the
bat population far outnumbers all 9TH
er kinds OF mammals combined.
And alasI it is not true that bats
prefer a diet of mosquitoes!

Mess Hall Pleases the Men

The mess hall managed by Miss
Condit, feeds two hundred and seven
ty-five of the boys from the U. S.
Army Training Detachment situated
here. 1t is a difficult task to please
two hundred and seventy-five men
and Miss Condit does it very credit
ably.
The cooks get up at 200 a. m. and
start breakfast and the kitchen police,
two squads from Section A, and one
squad from Section B, report at 6 80.
These men put all of the food on the
tables and two squads wait tables.
After breakfast everything that has
been used is washed up and the tables
reset. The kitchen police report again
at 11:3O and at $50 and go through
the same routine.
Everything is prepared in large
pans or kettles, and the cooks are
kept busy getting up the meals. The
K. Ps. have to pare all vegetables,
such as potatoes, onions, carrots, etc.
but the cooks do all the rest of the
work. The hardest job on K. P. is
that of cleaning the large pots and
pans and all of the boys try to think
up some excuse to dodge it. It is one
job for which there is no competition.
After the quarantine is lifted the
Kitchen Police have nothing to do but
wait tables as the dish washing and
vegetable pareing will be done by the
regular students. This is certainly
good news to the boys in the S. A. T.
G.. as K. P. is one of the most disa-
greeable things in life. It is one of
the things the boys look forward to
with disgust.
The government pays seventy cents
per day for each man and out of this
sum all of the expenses must be paid.
The coal, food, breakage and pay for
help must come out of this sum.
In the kitchen there are the first
and second cook, cooks helper in
addition to two women who help in
the care of the food.
In arranging the dining hall for
better service a store room has been
built and shelved and the wash room
has been enlarged to accommodate ad-
ditional need for room. The cellar
in connection is used for storing all
vegetables.
In the S. A T. C. eight squads are
seated IN the west room OF the DIN
ing hall and the last twelve squads
are seated in the north room. The
boys are seated by squads eight at a
table with exception of three tables
holding two squads each and one
table holding five squads.
The boys attend strictly to the bust
ness of eating. Each table is set with
plate, knife, fork, spoon, cup and
glass and with salt, pepper and vine
gar service. The table service is real
ly very nice.
It may be interesting to note that
in the preparation of meals about
six tons of coal are used per month.
In the menu for a certain week we
used 600 pounds of beef, 125 pounds
of mutton, 100 pounds of bacon, rs
to 100 pounds of ham and in addition
fresh pork or chicken. From $50 to
200 loves of bread are used each day.
When bacon is served for breakfast,
from 25 to 80 pounds are used. On
Friday fish is usually served, the
amount running from rs to 80 lbs.
! For last Sundays dinner about 95
pounds of chicken were used.
Preparations are being made to in
stall steam cooking utensils, electric
dish washers and other devices to
assist in speedy preparation of food.
