VERMONT STATE FAIR.
Will Probably Be Held Week of Sep
TENDER II, with New Attractions.

BURLINGTON, Jan. 17.-This
years state fair is to be the greatest
thing in its line yet, in the opinion of
F. L. Davis of Hartford, the secretary,
who is in this city to attend the dairy
men s convention. Nothing definite
probably will begin the week of Sep
TENDER u. The management intends
to make up for the last two years, when
no fair was held because of infantile
paralysis AND the war.
Mr.. Davis thinks that more attention
than before win be paid to the boys
and girls. and special building for
their exhibits probably will he erected.
The fair at White River Junction Will
be held the week before the one in
Springfield, Mass, where the boys and
girls have attracted country wide at
tentiOn, and an effort to get most of
that show will be made.
Another feature talked of is a sol
diers' day in connection with Cover
nor's day. On that day, which proba-
| bly, will be Thursday of fair week, it
| is expected the Governor of New
| TO join with the Nermonters and in
this way the twin states will be
brought together. There will he an
army aeroplane of some description and
the entertainment of the day win be il
keeping with it's military nature.

THE SEED SITUATION.

Seedsmcn throughout the country
will be interested in an encouragement
by the federal department of agricul-
ture to the effect that it has sent two
men to Europe to study the situation
as to vegetable and field seeds The two
experts expect to visit Great Britain,
France, Belgium, Italy, Holland and
Denmark. The publication, authorized
by the department Of agriculture, says
that it is hoped they will be able TO
cable information that will be of much
immediate value to the department.
The publication goes on to remark
in its official way that cit may be
necessary to run some risk of a short
age of some kinds of seeds in order
TO meet the dire needs of our associ-
ates in the war. The phrase, on:
associates has hitherto been the ex-
elusive property of President Wilson
but it has now evidently become the
property of his subordinates
We are not told as vet as to the
seeds of which there is likely to be
a shortage but we shall find out in
due time. What the department is
good enough to tell us at present is
this:

seed business of the world to such

ton properly at this time. The ma.
chinery of the seed trade in the cont

disrupted as to make the timely inter
change of seeds, needed for planting

and the United States very difficult
The seed trade of the United States
has felt that its resources in bringing
about an effective interchange have
practically been exhausted and thai
