The four doctors of Milford have organized a union to protect their general welfare and provide for their common defense against the summer visitors who flock there every year and are attacl7e1 with all the ail- nents that flesh Is heir to, then send q hurry call to the overworked phy- sicians. and pay them with kind words
 It was the unanimous opinion of the four doctors that this state of affairs must cease and if summer visitor intends to have his vermiform appendix removed this season. he is warned that he either must have cash. a Liberty Bond, letter of credit, or a rating in Bradstreet or Dun, if he has neither of these he can bring his old appendix back to Bridgeport and leave it there.
 There were enough offices fin the Association so pr. c. Carpenter was elected president. Dr. W. S. Putney. vice-president; pr. Carleton Heady. secretary, and Dr. J. L. Pons, treas urer.
 Last evening the members of the association were entertained at an in formal dinner at the Taft Hotel. by the famous Political Surgeon and ob- stetrfclan, Isaac Ulman, who is well known for his famous operation in removing the brains from the Repub- lican party in Bridgeport without us- ing anesthetics.

A Great BenefactOr

In the death of Andrew Carnegie
America has lost the king of the steel
magnatc and her greatest philanthro-
phist. While he once expressed the
wish that he might die poor it is
doubtful with all his millions devoted
to philanthropy that his principal was
reached. The best part of it was
that he mixed his philanthropy with
brains and thousands upon thousands
in this country and Great Britain will
get better education and more good
reading in the years to come as the
result of his almost countless bcne-
factions.

Welcoming Canadian Tourists
Waterbury Record

Certainly Highway Commissioner
Gates can be counted on to do Yer
mont's part in making the New Eng
lard highway leading to Montreal an
attractive road for motorists. YER
mont is the natural vacation spot for
Montreal people. Many Vermont
towns have been favored by these
Canadian people both as summer and
winter guests. This town is so sit
uatcd that at times, especially over
holiday seasons, one hundred Mon
trcal visitors have been in our midst.
Best of it is, they arc delightful
people, a class with whom it is a
pleasure to have an acquaintance
If Vermont spends Il few hundred
dollars in road work from St. AL
bans to the Canadian line it will be
a permanent investment that will
never be regretted.

Wheat and Bread
(From New York Times)


Mr.. Barnes, chairman of the Grain
Corporation, says that he has bought
only 100000 bushels of new-crop
wheat, and that for four months the
farmers have been able to find buyers
above the lawful guarantee. Also, the
world price for all wheat growers has
been $246, and the Europeans grow
ers' price has been $3.75. 1t would be
difficult to imagine a completer OF
clearer answer to those who have
been demanding that the price Of
wheat should be reduced to the world
price in an open market. Our guar,
antee lay does not obligate the farmer
to sell to the Grain Corporation, but
obligates the corporation to buy at
the fixed price. 1t is a one-sided bar
gain, and the farmer has the better
of it. He is either holding above the
guarantee or selling above it, and is
in danger of seeming little better
than the wicked profteers. Bread,
says Mr.. Barnes, is the cheapest of
our foods, and if -four were supplied
to the bakers free the other costs
would make the hope of a five-cent
loaf small.
Mr.. Barnes looks further ahead
than those who think chiefly of to-
days price. He is now keeping down
the price of flour by ability to sell
-four at $40 a barrel where it rises
unduly. 1t is necessary that he shall
be able to do the same at the end OF
the current crop year. There is only
one wheat crop for the world, and
there is no surplus anywhere except
for difficulties Of transportation. That
applies also to this country, where
great accumulations and fair pros
poets would vanish like the dew be
fore the sun if it were possible to de-
liver all wanted by the hungry hun
dreds of millions overseas. For the
fiscal year ending with June our ex-
ports of breadstuffs increased by a
third, and for June increased by a
half. 1t is difficult to believe that we
exported last year $954,779,894 worth
OF DrCaQSLulIS WltIOuI IdloiliS Pl1SS"
even higher than they went. 1t was
great service to humanity as well Mas
one of profit to ourselves, and the
work should be finished as it has been
carried on.
Instead of less control, and a grain
market at the mercy of spectators,
there is better prospect of more
control, and perhaps of collective buy
ing and selling by Government bodies
on both sides the seas. There is dam
ger of foreign buyers raising the
price against themselves, as they did
in their panic to supply themselves
with munitions, and there is little
prospect that our sellers would take a
lower price for the sake of feeding
their countrymcn chcaply by taking a
less profit than is offered commercial
ly. Mr.. Barnes policy is the best
explanation of the furry among the
grain proftecrs, on or off the farms.
He is in the best position to manage
the market according to facts rather
than according to imprcsslonlstlc
ideas of conditions.
