The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1919-03-31

Of century, and up to the time Of the
entrance of the United States into the
war with Germany, there was regularly
scheduled steamboat connection between
the two cities. The announcement by
the Merchants & Miners Transportation
company that a passenger ship will leave
Boston on the last day of March routed
for Baltimore, and that weekly sailings
will thereafter be arranged each way
until business gets back to normal, when
the old time schedules will return, is
very pleasing news at this end Of the
line and, doubtless, also at the Boston
end.
The outside trips by the Merchants &
Miners attracted a very large summer
travel especially as to the northern rout-
ings. The vacation tribes long ago dis
covered that a round trip TO Boston by
sea had just about enough salt air varia
ton TO it to take the tired feeling out of
the bones and tone up the appetite to
the three square meals standardization.
And the first time lookOver of Boston is
really not so blue-tinted Anyhow, as we
have before suggested, Baltimore is glad
TO resume friendly relations with the
Hub by the waterway, even though it be
the slowtime way Baltimore Amer

ONCE COVERED WITH ICE.
So Wisconsin Is Classic Region for Study
Of Work Of Glaciers.

Southeastern Wisconsin has long been
considered BY biologists and geographers
one Of the classic regions Of the world
for a study of the work Of the glaciers
of the Great Ice age. During that age a
succession Of vast ice sheets spread over
much of Wisconsin and other northern
states. As they advanced southwark
from Canada they secured out lake ba.
sins and river valleys and gathered an
immense load Of ground dup rock, pebbles
and boulders Much Of this material
lodged within and beneath the moving
ice and when the ice melted was left
spread over the land like a mantle. Many
valleys were partly filed; some streams
were In places forced to cut new chan
nels, such as the Dells Of the Wisconsin [;
and thousands of untitled hollows became
the basins of beautiful lakes, such as
Lakes Geneva and Delavan and the lakes
OF the Madison and 0conomowOc regions.
A large part OF western Wisconsin was
never covered by the ice, and in this part
are found picturesque bluffs and castel.

SEEKING AMERICAN GRAVES.
Several Thousand Americans Were En-
gagged in the Work.

In the American Battle Areas, March
"a Correspondent of the Associated
Press -Four thousand men OF. the A. f.
f. are now engaged in the registration
Of and search for the graves of Ameri-
cans who died in battle.
The work of seeking the resting places
Of American heroes is being undertaken
by the section of graves registration,
which is directing its efforts so as to be
able to designate the grave of every
American should Congress authorize the
return of the bodies of the fallen.
Tireless seeking for Identification tags
marks the daily task of the men of the
graves registration section. They set out
on their solemn mission equipped with
pick, shovel and gas mask Some times
they pry down into the ground for the
identity of the dead warrior, sometimes
they ferret into the recesses of discarded
dugouts, and sometimes they clear away
the brush of the forest TO find some trace
of the victims OF battle.
Each cemetery where Americans have
been buried is fully plotted on maps.
The graves registration service now is
tending every energy to complete the
burying, marking, recording and CLASH
flying Of the heroic Americans.

COURSE ATTRACTS ATTENTION.
Farmers Exhibit Considerable Desire to

ton relative to the farm mechanics"
course evolved as a brand new occupa.
tion for disabled men of the army, navy
and marine corps who are so badly dis
abled as to require vocational refrain
ing at the hands of the board. Farm
owners in many different sections have
instantly recognized the practicability
of the course and voice the need for
men trained along the lines indicated.
The labor shortage has caused many
a farm owner to realize that he must
get out of the rut and substitute ma
chinery for time hoHored wasteful meth.
DDS, but his own lack of knowledge con-
corning the upkeep and operation of
farm tractors, motor trucks, automobiles,
gas engines, electrical machinery and
the like has been the principal barrier.
The difficulty of obtaining competent
help has been an equal obstacle, That
the federal board has started training
disabled soldiers in this new trade of
farm mechanics" has been glad news
to many farm owners, long time vic
tins of incompetent, unframed labor,
who, nevertheless, have been steadily
increasing their wage demands while not
improving the service rendered
As result of trained men, able to
operate machinery which will all but
eliminate the average farm laborer, farm
owners are hopeful and display great
interest in putting their places on a mod
ern basis, equipped with modern labor
saving machinery.

OYER HALF DEATHS
DUE TO INFLUENZA
Among the American Troops in Great
Britain-of 5000 Soldiers Who
Arrived on the Olympic,
1000 Contracted the
Disease.

London, March 81 Correspondence of
the Associated Press More than half
the deaths among the American soldiers
in Great Britain were due to influenza.
The total number of cases Of the disease
in the three months Of the epidemic
among the Americans here reached Z ,l52.
In that period deaths from pneumonia,
developing in most cases from influenza,
numbered LII. Of 6y000 troops brought
on one trip by the steamer Olympic, q,
900 contracted the disease and, as about
one-third of these cases developed pnsu-
monia, the proportion Of fatalities was
very large.
These figures are contained in an elab-
crate report being prepared by the Amer
lean Red Cross covering the work Of the
organization in Great Britain up to the
beginning of this year
When the Olympic locked at South
ampton there were about 400 influenza
cases on board. But before the troops
could be debarked the number of cases
had increased five fold. The weather
was at its worst, cold, wet and misty.
when the Olympic drew into port"
says the report, "snd the news Of the
outbreak of influenza was received, the
medical authorities hesitated to disem-
bark all these troops, who were fresh
from training camps in the mild climate
of the southern states. For the only
place to take them was the Southamp-
ton rest camp, which was situated on
low, wet ground, and was without ade-
quate facilities for taking care of sick
men or men who had been exposed to an
epidemic Most of the housing in the
camp was in tents without cots, and the
men had to sleep on floors which con
sisted merely Of one layer of thin boards
a few inches off the ground"
For few days the doctors tried to
fight the epidemic on shipboard, but It
became so fiercely yirulent that it finally
became necessary to disembark the men
and take them TO the rest camp.
THE medical authorities in the hos
spitals around Southampton" the report
says, were we'll equipped to deal with
any ordinary outbreak of disease, but
this emergency taxed to the breaking
point all their accommodations and prep
arations. Supplies, not only of drugs
and equipment, but also OF doctors and
nurses were rapidly exhausted
Here, the report points out, was a sig.
nal opportunity for the Red Cross, and
it lent valuable aid in securing instant
delivery of needed supplies and clothing
and in providing accommodations for
many of the patients.
From 76 cases Of influenza among
American soldiers in Great Britain dur
ing the week ending Sept. Q, the mum
Der jumped to 1880 on Sept. 80 That
was the highwater mark and from then

THE WHEAT GUARANTY.
Statement Issued By Department of Ag-
riculture on the Handling.

Several statements have recently APP
peared in daily and grain trade papers
indicating that the department Of agri-
culture is anxious to take charge of the
work of carrying out the guaranteed
price on the 1919 wheat crop. These
statements misrepresent the attitude of
the department of agriculture.
The department of agriculture, after
this country entered the war, took the
position that emergency food activities
Of commercial nature should be direct
ed by an emergency agency, and there
fore participated in framing the food
control act giving the president power to
create such an agency. The food admin
istration and its grain corporation were
set up under the act and they have
handled the wheat guarantees from the
beginning, The secretary Of agriculture
has assumed until recently that these
agencies would, without question, con-
tinue to handle the wheat guarantees
until the emergency passed and the law
ceased 10 be in operation. he still be-
lieves that it would be desirable for the
grain corporation TO continue to function
and close out the matter. The corpora
ton has gained much valuable expe-
rience during the war and should be able
to deal with the problem as effectively
as any other establishment. The recent
wheat guaranty act seems to contem-
plate that this agency would continue to
act. Among other things, it authorizes
the president to use any existing agency
OF agencies and to utilize any depart
ment of the government, including, of
course, the food administration grain
corporation II would be difficult for
any other existing agency now to set up
the requisite machinery, especially in
view of the short time intervening be-
fore the 1919 crop movement begins; and
even if 1t were TO undertake to do so,
some embarrassment would undoubtedly
result, because two agencies, over a part
of the period, would be dealing with
wheat
The task is one Of great magnitude
and the time is short. The secretary of
agriculture recently cabled TO the presi-
dent, pointing out the necessity for i'm
mediate action and urging that the pres
emit machinery, that is, the food admin
istration grain corporation, be main
tanned and utilized. As a matter of
course, il the president should designate
the department Of agriculture as the
agency to handle the 1919 guaranty, it
would assume the task and discharge it
to the best of its ability.
