heimina do it." The pillow did not ap-
peal nearly so much as the light field
equipment along the frontier. The
long hikes along the towpaths were
not nearly so attractive as the short
stretches between sentry posts on the
border between Hollands eastern
provinces and the Westphalian or
russian country. 1t was found a
hard matter to get the Hollander back
into civilian job, not because the lob
was not there but because the erst-
while thrifty Dutchman no longer
cared for the job.
Food Shortage a Cause.
For many months now life for the
iaw-abiding Dutehman and his family
has been anything but a paradise and
the shortage of food has been but a
small matter in the grand total of this
general unhappiness.
The principal thing that has been
worrying Holland has been the bur-
glar, who has since before the Christ
mas holidays become sort of nation
al institution, like the cheese and the
gin. Acts of violence are of daily, in
fact, of hourly, occurrence in the
country districts as well as in the
cities Not alone must doors be Sc
curely locked and bolted at night, but
if during the daytime the household
er turns his back to look over his
chickens in the barnyard without first
closing his front door he will most
likely return to the "pronk kamer"
(parlor) only to find every article of
intrinsic value has disappeared.
The theft of silverware, jewelry,
clothes and even pots and pans from
the kitchen is reported to the police
in every town and hamlet ON an aver
age Of once every hour during the 81
hours of the day. The flow of com
plants is so steady that in most
places one man is assigned to do moth
ing but record these reports of bur-
glaries.
While, of course, it would be unfair
to say that every one of the demobil-
lied soldiers has turned burglar after
receiving his discharge from the army,
it is safe to say that one-half of the
100000 troops has turned it's atten-
ton to either burglary, petty or grand
larceny or highway robbery as
means to keep the wolf from the door
without an undue amount of physical
exertien.
The visitor in Holland, although he
is still much in the minority because
of the passport restrictions, has
learned to keep his hand on his wal
let pocket and his fingers firmly
around the end of stout cane when
ever he ventures out into the street
or along a country PATH once Hol-
lands delight and the safest prone
made in the wide world.
Daring Highway Robberies.
The "kwajongems, who used to
stand in proper awe of the we'll
dressed man or woman in the public
thoroughfares of the city, now openly
and brazenly snatch at watch chains,
ladies' bags or pocket books that are
carried in the hands by the ladies.
Nine times in ten the culprit manages
to make a clean getaway in the crowd
of sympathetic rufffans, who gather
quickly at the first sign of disorder
in the street.
Children sent to the stores by their
mothers are often the victims of the
thieves, who take away their pennies,

DISCUSSED WORK
OF FARM BUREAU
Executive Committee Votes to Recon-
mend Doubling Membership Fee
Small Deficit Exists.

Several matters of Importance to the
conduct of the Farm Bureau work the
coming year were discussed thoroughly in
a meeting of the executive committee yes
terday afternoon at the Farm Bureau
headquarters in the town hall building.
Thomas Bradlee of Burlington, director of
county agents, was present. President A.
A. Dunklee of South Vernon presided
A vote to recommend to the Farm Bu-
reau organization, at the annual meeting,
that the membership fee be doubled, on
account of the increased cost in conduct
ing the work, which has caused small
deficit, was one of the most vital ques-
tions taken up. 1t was stated that similar
action has been taken by the bureaus in 10
other counties of the state and in about
20 per cent of the counties in New York
state.
The appointment Of a committee to have
charge of plans for the annual meeting
was left with the president 1t is ex-
pected that the meeting will be held be
tween Jan. 10 and Jan 20, either in Brat
tleboro or Westminster, but the matter
of the exact time and place was left to
the discretion of the committee
A program of work was adopted for the
county agent to follow in 1920 Tentative
plans also were made for four major meet
ings to be held in Brattleboro, Westmin
ster, Wilmington and Townshend during
the coming year. 1t was suggested that
the meeting in Townshend probably would
be the annual Farm Bureau field day.
Horton d. Walker, secretary. reported {
membership growth for the year 1919 il
excess of 1918 of practically 20 per cent
and stated that the Farm Bureau hac
made proportionate increase each yeal
| since organization. A goal of 1000 mem
| bers has been set for 1920, and it is the
aim of the membership committee to givt
every farmer in the. county an opportunit,
to become a member of the bureau.

continuing the home economics depart
ment, but it was voted that the member

Three bullets intended for a deer
