DR.. John \. Brashear, who today enters
upon his soth year, has contributed prob
ably as much as any man now living to
the science of astronomy, chiefly through
his development OF lenses to degree Of
power hitherto unknown a native of
PENNSYLVANIA, he began his career as a
machinist in Pittsburgh, following the
completion of a common school education.
While thus employed he pursued relent-
lessly his studies in the field of inathema
tics and astronomy which were to bring
him -eminence later. In 1870 he began
the manufacture of astronomical and phys
ical instruments and within few years
his renown as scientist and telescope
maker had become international. As di-
rector of the Allegheny observatory he
supervised some remarkable Astronomical
researches Scientific societies throughout
the world have bestowed honors upon d..
Brashear and in 1915 he was officially
named by Governor Brumbaugh as the
most eminent citizen OF Pennsylvania.

al as a candidate for the honorable po-
sition as head of the Vermont delega
ton
The Burlington Free Press very ably
contends that the Vermont delegation
should be headed by Vermonter with
the widest national acquaintance and
influence, one familiar with political
conditions, trained in handling politi
cal questions and capable of making the
influence of Vermont felt. 1t calls at
tention to the fact that Vermont is en-
titled to eight delegates and eight al
ternates in the convention and says
that the selection of one member of the
congressional delegation would leave
fifteen other positions on the delegation
open to other Vermonters. These points
seem to be well taken.
That Congressman Greene has nation
Al influence in Republican political cir
cles is shown by his choice as member
| of the house congressional campaign
committee, a body that has much to do
with fixing the party policies. No 9th
or Vermonter enjoys such recognition
today and, this ~fact~speciaHy fits Con
gresham Greene for the position of
head of the Vermont delegation 1t
will not be surprising if the rank and
file of the party in Vermont insists on
Congressman Greene s serving his state
in this position.
+ Then let the Republicans choose sev.
fen other able and representative mer
who have shown political ability anc
service for the remaining delegates and
eight more good men for alternates
and the state viii have the best ant
most valuable delegation possible to Sc
cure. Under the leadership of Con
gresham Greene such q delegation
should bring honor to Vermont and aio
the Republican party in getting start
ed right for a sweeping victory in 1920

We rather imagine Vermonters of
both sexes will resent strenuously any
interference by Miss Stoddard or any
one else with their home made wines
and cider. The Burlington Clipper says:
"This has always been done in Yer

reputation for voting differently than
they drink. 1t is not likely that any
great harm will come from the home

1t is satisfactory 10 note the organ
ization in Vermont of strong branch
of the United Americans, society to
promulgate and support pure Ameri-
canism by means Of research depart
ment, press bureau, educational cam
paign by means of addresses, chautau-
quas, moving pictures and by word OF
mouth propaganda. 1t is TO eliminate
sradiealism and anarebism wheres Ell
found. The chances are'that these forms
of dangerous anti Amerieanism win not
gain as strong foothold in Vermont as
they are apt to elsewhere.

BOVINE TUBERCULOSIS.

Of bulletin of the Vermont department
of agriculture. No. %, entitled Bovine
its Eradication from Yer
mont Herds. A copy can be secured by
sending a request to the E. S. Brigham,
of agriculture, Montpel-
Ter.
The bulletin states what the state Of
Vermont and .t6e federal government
viii do to aid any Vermonter desiring
to have his cattle tested and the dis
ease eradieated from his herd; and
gives abstracts of the state laws on
the subject with full explanation of the
methods of testing cattle and paving
for condemned animals. One valuable
feature is statement of Reasons Why
Vermont Herds Should Be Tested for
tuberculosis.
There is a suspicion of the products
Of herd affected with tuberculosis that
reduces the market value and STABILITY
of these products. To continue produc-
ton from suspected herds reduces the
compensation to the producer and gen.
orally results in the infection of his
whole herd, entailing heavy loss. The
loss from tuberculosis in cattle slaught
cred is about two per cent. or one in
every fifty killed for meat; in hogs the
loss is almost ten per cent, or one ii
every ten animals killed The amount
of meat condemned in one year in The
United States amounted to 25,873. 200
| pounds, tremendous yearly waste il
the country. The loss Of dairy ami

| farmers cannot continue to produc'
so much waste meat.
! The strongest reasons why cattl
should be given the tuberculin test ar
it is ninety eight per cent efficient il
detecting animals affected with tub

protects the remainder of the herd
from further exposure to the disease
Such q high grade of cattle is pro
duced at present, either in pure bre
herds or from high priced pure bre

For these reasons the production c
