CITY CLUB ROLL IS
ABOUT COMPLETED
Membership Limit of 1900
Will Be Reached Monday,
Is Prediction.

This is the last week in which per-
sons will be able to join the recently
organized City Club. The member
ship limit of 1900 will be reached
Monday, according to the prediction
of club officials. and the bars then
will be raised-not to be let down IN
til some one dies or resigns.
Although club leaders are confident
that the membership could be in
creased to 5000 and possibly even
5000, no effort to change the 1900
limit Will be made, as the proposed
81 900, 900 clubhouse is planned on the
basis of such membership and would
not comfortably accommodate
larger number.
Means a Waiting List
This means that a waiting list will
have to be established next week.
Club officials believe that this list
will grow so fast that the number
of names soon will exceed the pres
ent membership. This is the case
with the Boston City Club. which has
a membership of 5000 and a waiting
list of 1000 names. 1t takes a long
time for 5000 people to die or resign,
and the 1000 reserves are anticipating
a rather long wait.
Team Luncheons Scheduled.
The largest membership team
luncheons so far held are being plan
ned for tomorrow and Monday. The
reports of the team captains tomor-
row will indicate rather accurately
whether the club will be able to reach
the 1900 mark by Monday The
luncheon on Monday will be in the
nature Of a Jubilee over the succea
OF the enrolment work. There will
be special addresses and il is prob
able that the site committee will file
it's report.

A BRATTLEBoRo INTERVIEW.
Mr.. Howe Tells His Experience.

10
The following brief account of an
interview with a Brattleboro man ten
years ago and its sequel, will be read
with keen interest by every citizen.
O.. F. Howe, 4 Canal ST., Brattleboro,
gave the following statement on Sep
TENDER %, 1908; my back troubled
me for long time and I got SO lame
from STOPPING and lifting, could hard
ily straighten up. Sharp pains caught
me every time stopped and though I
tried plasters and iniments and sever
al remedies for my back, 1 got no re-
lief. Finally got Doan's Kidney Pills
from the Rrattleboro Drug Co. and two
boxes did what the other remedies had
failed to do. They removed the lame
ness and soreness from my back, the
backache left and my kidneys became
regular. I could once again work all
day and didn't feel the affects of it
in my back
On November 90, 1916 Mr.. Howe
said: "Doan's Kidney Pills are just as
high in my estimation today as they
were when I gave them my first recon-
mendation. Every time I have the
least trouble with my back, I use
Doan's Kidney Pills and they always
straighten me up in good shape.n

II is easy to theorize about the flu
tuer market for copper. lead, inc,
etc, quote figures and pile up sta
tistics. The fact remains that thest
great basic industries Of western
mining have gone through hard
six months OF stagnant market con-
ditions and low prices.
The readjustment In western met
al mining to peace conditions has
been more severe than In probably
any other line of industry because
II was almost wholly occupied In war
work. Domestic and foreign build
ing and construction was at stand
still, hence when the war ended the
bottom dropped out of metal
The man with vision however. is
looking ahead. II is a fact that new
e, in the history of the world was
there so much new building and re-
pair and construction work needed
in all lines. Nearly everything from
barn to a transcontinental railroad
must be repaired or built new. It
took little time to catch our
breath and square away on peace
instead of war program and II will
take Europe a little longer than IL
has us. But construction work must
go ahead. In fact 1t is now under
way and we all begin to feel the full
of it.
A salesman for one of Americas
largest paint houses recently said
that March. 1918, was their record
month, with virtually 100 per cent
war business. They thought their
business would go flat for months
after the war but he said March,
1919. without any war orders, broke
the 1918 record"
The public has become convinced ,
that building will not be cheaper for
a long time to come. in fact indica-
tons are that lumber will advance
beyond 1918 figures. Therefore with
high wages and high prices for farm
crops both of which are higher in
proportion than cost of building ma
terials, lumber. metals, etc.. there is
no object in delaying building as be-
fore prices fall again, food prices and |
wages will come down materially.
The world will use metals in many !
new ways as the machinery age Is at |
hand and there is every reason to be- |
lieve that once peace is again estab-
lished, western metal mining will |
surpass in volume even its war rec
ords.

MOST PRESSING NEED

In discussing progress made in
raising sugar beets and manufacture
of sugar an authority on sugar pro-
duciton days the greatest single need
of the industry today is better agri-
cultural practice in the way Of more
thorough cultivation and more expert
supervision from planting to havest-
ing.
Sugar producers have mixed brains
with the factory end of the business
and are eager to adopt new equip
ment and methods that will improve
extraction by even fractional per
cent.
But the raising OF the beets has
been largely left to take care of IT.
self. The beet raisers must be taught
the value of proper preparation OF
seed beds, planting and above all,
the necessity of cultivating. Heavy
yields of high quality mean not only
lager returns to the farmer but also
more economical and consequently
more profitable operation of the fac
tory.
Intense competition in the sugar
industry is bound to come sooner or
later and farmers and producers who
are in a position to attain most eff
cient results in field and factory are
the ones who will show balance
on the right side OF the ledger.
AT present the greatest opportun-
ity for increased efficiency undoubt-
eddy lies in field cultivation.
