Inquirer Wants To Know Why 1t Does
Not Produce

"a Seeker After knowledge writes
to the American Horse Breeder to in
qure why it is that the t. 5. Morgan
horse farm in Weybridge has not been
more productive of results The letter
follows:
A dozen or more years ago the late
Col Joseph Battel, of Middlebury,
VT, a man of unlimited wealth and
who did more to perpetuate the breed
of the Morgan horse than any other
one man, gave to the United States
Government large farm situated III
the town of Weybridge just over he
Middlebury line
Among the buildings on the farm
was one of the finest barns for the
breeding and care OF horses that could
be found anywhere i'll New England.
At the time this gift was made it was
well understood by all concerned that
the government should use this fam
for the breeding of highclass regis
tered Morgan horses, and for that
alone. Mr. Battell realized that he was
getting old and would not be able
much longer to give his personal at
tention to the breeding of this most
beautiful and useful race of horses,
hoping to establish in this way stud
of Morgans similar to some of the
studs of heavy horses established by
some of the governments OF Europe.
have often talked with Col. Battell
about this farm and know that that
/ !,
heard him say time and again that he
expected, if the plan worked out well,
to give them another farm that ad
joined this one, known as the Drake
farm, containing 600 acres of fine land,
making an estate of something over
| | 900 acres in all.
By his will the Drake farm went to
Middlebury college at his death, and
was sold by them to the government,
so that they now have the 1000 acres
of land nicely equipped with beautiful
houses and barns galore, all electric
lighted, with one of the finest water
systems, that carries the water to all
the buildings and lots on the farm.
Within few years the government
has added large sheep barns, with a
fine house for the shepherd, and have
been breeding Southdown sheep there
for sometime This last spring they
brought in a carload, some 200, OF
Western range sheep.
Now what has been the result of
this great generosity Of Col. Battell?
OF the large outlay of money by the
government and the years of hard
work by the laboring man? 1t has
been the custom OF the managers to
hold annual auction sales Of horses at
the farm. At these sales the horses
have brought from Sl3 to $3.50
Now the question arises, What is
the matter?" Why this great outlay
of money year after year and no
resultsi Who is at faultf Certainly it
is not the Morgan horse, for any man
with good horse sense knows mighty
well that, properly bred, fed and edu-
Gated, he is the finest horse for cav
airy and many other purposes the sun
ever shone on. Again l ask, what is
the matter at the Government Horse
Fsrini Who will DO us the favor to
answer this?

KINDERGARTEN LEGISLATION

Special interest is being shown this
winter in legislation to promote the ex-
tension of kindergarten classes.
During the past year the United
States Bureau of Education has urged
civic organizations and women's clubs
to work for more Kindergartens as a
vital wartime necessity to care for the
children whose parents were both busy
in the prosecution of the war.
ut becomes daily more apparent
that the care of the children OF the
alien is a problem second in import
ance to none; and as the kindergarten
is known to be a vital Americanizing
agency, the interest in this department
is receiving special attention at this
time.
as it not unjust to provide for only
a small proportion Of our children an
educational advantages which all are
entitled to receive? Those awake to
the privilege of aiding this movement
are invited to write for information
to the kindergarten Extension Div.
sion of the United States Bureau oil
Education or the National Kindergar-
ten Association both located at 3
West 4Oth Street, New York"

LAP SOFTLY waves, the high gray prowsl
Blow gently, winds, through joyous days
Nor any slumbering Sea King rouse,
To peril safety cause delays
Watch, stars, through silent blissful nights
Shine, with newer spendor shine
Bring nearer rapturous delights
Loved exiles bring, for whom hearts pine
Glad hours, move swiftly till once more
Home faces dear those dear ones greet
Speed tides the ships toward this proud shore
Where flags will wave and drums will beat
Hide, Mercy all the hurts and scars

William o. Jones, vice-president OF
the National Park bank of New York,
a correspondent of the Winooski Saw
ings bank for many years, came from
New York especially to meet the mem
bers of the corporation In the absence
of Emory c. Mower, the president,
Guy w. Bailey presided and introduced
Mr.. Jones as the first speaker. Mr..
ZONES alluded to the fact that in his
boyhood he resided in ST. Lawrence
county in New York and received his
first certificate to teach from the Hon
. A. B. Hepburn, graduate OF Middle
bury College and now one OF the lead
ing financiers of America. As a young
man he was closely associated with W.
H. Porter, native of Vermont, and
now one of the firm OF ]. P. Morgan x
Co. Mr.. Jones addressed the first
meeting of the Vermont Bankers as
ISOLATION at the invitation of I. 7.
Smith. The speaker followed two lines
/ of thought the first relating to thrift
and the second to existing business con-
ditions. He called attention to the fact
that at the outbreak of the war; gov
eminent bonds and the bonds OF large
corporations were held by comparative
" few people. AT the present time IT
is said that government bonds are held
bv 22,OOO,OO0 people in this country
This country has been passing through
one of the greatest thrift movements
in the history of the world.
Mr.. Jones said that the United
States was now a creditor nation. AT
the beginning of the war, Europe held
about $4,OO00O0000 of our security
About 70 per cent of that amount has
now been paid and European nations
are now indebted to us to such an eX-
tent that they will be paying America
annually about $500,000,0O0 in interest
charges for many years. There are
certain signs in the business world that
cannot safely be disregarded One Il
that there is the danger of Over-eXpan
sion or initiation, which must be re-
garded with concern. Much new tinan
chg riust be carried out soon which
will create large demands for money
In his opinion abnormal rates would
not obtain. The labor situation wa
viewed with concern and he considered
it was time for a great forbearance anC
discretion on the part of both labor ant
capital.
c. p. Smith was called upon and re
ierred to the founders of the Winoosk
Savings bank, some of whom he knew
personally as a young business man
Some of the requisites for a good bani
were absolute safety for depositors, tn
obtaining OF as good returns as possible
from investments and liquid assets SUI
ficient to meet demands. He spoke 0
the Importance of thrift and its n1n
ence upon character and discussed tn
