FARMERS FACING SERIOUS PROBLEM
IN CLOVER CROP


IN CLOVER CROP
Unless farmers in Wisconsin make their
first cutting of clover for hay a week earlier
than usual and then plan TO use the second
crop for seed. this state viii experience Glow
er seed shortage that will completely upset
the four year rotation that is the manstay
of Wisconsin farming. X. A. Moore. expert
ment station agrOnOmist, says that not only
will the profits from the clover seed repay
the farmer for smaller crop of hay, but
return to the old practice of using the second
crop for seed will assure the necessary acre
age Of medium red clover in the future
II Is especially necessary that the first cut
ting be made early. says Mr.. Moore. Many
farmers who have allowed their clover to reach
the full cutting stage in June and depended
upon the second crop for seed have been dis
appointed in the yield of seed. When the
field Is to serve for both seed and hay the first
cutting Of medium red clover should be made
Just when the field is beginning to blossom.
Some plants will be only in full bud. the whole
field in about three-quarters bloom. This is
about a week earlier than the usual cutting
time.
Fields cut at this stage start up rapidly be-
cause the roots still have much vitality, and
a good crop of seed can be obtained.

HOW WAR BONDS
G] U2 IN VALUE
History of ALI Loans for a Cen
tury Shows That Advance
Has Always Come with
Peace.

Will history repeat itself? That
question is in the minds OF many bond
buyers these days. Records show that
the prices OF bonds were way down
during war times Of the past but soon
after peace was declared advanced
rapidly.
During Napoleonic wars prices OF
English per cent. consols ranged
in 1914 to 96s the high and S4% tho
low, in 1924. During the same period
French per cent. rentes rose from
30, the high in 1914 to 1o4s in 1924.
They also went as low as As in 1914.
French 5 per cent. rentes during the
Franco.Prussian war ranged in price
from ISL TO S73 and 50.8 to S11.
United States bonds during the Con-
federate war sold for 95A, the high.
and S3 the low in 1861 hut from then
on they had pra "tically a steady rise
until 1873. at which time the high was
123M and the low 111h. The ten
forty-year bonds. put out in 1864 ad-
vanced from 1031s to 116h in ten
years.
Four series OF Liberty Bonds have
been issued and the ffth-to be
known as the Victory Liberty Loan
will soon be offered. These securities
have behind them the mightiest pro-
lection ever devised-the resources
and the pledge and the faith OF one
OF the great nations of the world.
The investment value OF the bonds
can never decrease, for the interest
will alvc IS be paid and the bonds
will be redeemed at full face value

BETTER THAN
ASPIRIN FOR
COLDS AND FLU
The Improved Aspirin Tablets, Call
ed Aspitone, are Slightly Stimu-
lating Instead of Depressing to the
Heart-DO Not Upset Stomach.

Physicians and druggists are very
enthusiastic over Aspitone, the new
and improved aspirin tablets that
are said to be slightly stimulating
instead of depressing to the heart.
They explain that severe colds. in
1uenZa, fevers, headaches, neuralgia
and rhuematism are almost invaria-
bly, attended by a weakness of the
heart and require stimulation
sather than depression. Heart fail
are, they say, is especially to be
guarded against in influenza and
pneumonia, hence they recommend
Aspitone.
A gentle laxative with one or two
tablets OF Aspitone, as needed. is
now the physicians favorite treat
nent for severe colds and threatened
pneumonia. 1t will usually cut
short q cold or sore throat over
1ight. Aspitone tablets are also be-
ing used with splendid results for
the relief of pain in headaches, neu-
ralgia and rheumatism. The lead

WHAT WE ARE ASKED TO DO IN
THE NEAR EAST

Vermont is to be asked during the pc
riod from Jan. IL to IL to raise the com
paratively small sum of $4,000 for the
relief of suffering in the near East, one
of the races to be helped being the Arme
mans, who have suffered so much at the
hands of tho Turks From those who
have been in the near East we have the
information that the suffering Of mil.
lions Of people have been intense and
that more than million have died of
starvation and cruelties practiced upon
them by their masters. The first task of
the relief has been accomptshed--the
races have been released from the op.
preston of their Turkish masters; and
now the second task comes, the task of
feeding and clothing them until such
time as they can begin to shift for them
selves. We learn that the Armenians in
their far off eastern home are indus
trious, progressive people and are not
content to take gifts as a mere charity
when they are able to help themselves;
they desire to work to support them
selves, But for the time being they are
very short of food and their industries
are reduced practically to nothing. What
they need Immediately is means of sus-
tenance and the few articles of clothing
to protect them. Once they are restored
to working capacity they will be ready
to embark on industries and prepare to
become self-sustaining,
Shall we as a nation help them to be-
come independent once more, to regain
something of the national stature they
possessed before the blighting influence
of the Turks fell upon them2 If we
are to do our full duty in this war we
must help to restore, to self-reiance these
people who have been downtrodden for
centuries. Here in Vermont we are asked
to raise only small amount of money
for the relief of these peoples. The sum
of, 100000 is but drop in the bucket as
compared with the great outpouring of
money we have made during the past
year and half, Vermont ought easily
to raise her quota of 100000.

The American soldiers in northern Rus
STA may not be able to tell such dramatic
stories of huge, swaying conflict as their
brothers in western Europe will be able
to do; but they certainly will be in a
position to tell something of the rigors
of army life in desolate country and
with the temperature running below zero
good share of the time in winter. Al
ready the American expeditionary force
in northern Russia has been subjected to
the seventies of cold weather-how Sc
we're one might judge by imagining army
life in temperatures such as Vermont
has been experiencing for the past few
days. Of course, there probably viii be
little actual warfare as long as these con-
ditions exist; but there is the necessary
routine of military life which must be
kept up the year around. Therefore, a
full measure of the good things that the
United States and the American people
ran do should be given to these American
soldiers in northern Russia.
