undoubtedly do exist as reported For
many years Russia, which has conducted
some massacres OF her own in the past,
has used Armenia asa tool and played
It against Turkey by stirring it UP to
try for its Independence. This would

FAVORS KEEPING
BOTH THE SCHOOLS
Report of Special Committee On Vail
and Randolph Agricultural Plants
Endorses Both.

MONTPELIER, March 2l.-Thc re-
port of the special committee from the
legislature appointed TO visit the Vail
agricultural school al Lyndon and the
Vermont state school of agriculture at
Randolph recommends that both be re-
tanned as state schools on The basis of
their present appropriations. and that
a fixed and staple policy on the part
of the state be adopted in regard to
these schools.
This committee also recommends that
the direction and management of the
Vail School and farms be vested in the
state board OF education apsl- that the
board Of control be given authority 70
start an investigation with the view of
ascertaining the nature of the fund now
in the possession Of the lessons, as stat
ed in the lease given by the trustees of
the Orange county grammar school and
trustees of the state normal school al
Randolph to the state of Vermont.
The committee reports excellent con
ditions in both the Vail school aad the
state school at Randolph, and thinks
that the attendance should be larger a.
both these institutions. 1t is suggested
that the reasons why the attendance
has not been larger during the past
year or two is on account of war con.
ditions. unrest and uncertainty about
the future of the. institutions them
selves. lack OF knowledge about them
and erroneous impressions
To remedy this situation and increasc
the attendance during the coming year
the committee urges a fixed and staple
policy on the part of the state. as above

APRICOT PITS.
Supply Products Which once Had to
Be Imported.

One good that is working out OF the
evil OF war IS the demonstration that
American chemists, under the spur OF
demand, can readily surpass the accom-
plishmcnts Of German science. The fol-
lowing, cited in the April Popular Me
ehanics magazine, is a concrete example:
California has an annual hy-prodact crop
Of 1000 tons of apricot pits. Which were
formerly sold to Germany and Denmark
at Sl5 ton When the war closed this
market, and the price dropped to SIS, a
California chemist bought supply and
started experimenting. He IS now mar
keting a substitute for olive oil. meal
