Owing to the illness Of President
Wilson during the early part Of the
week, the commission on the league Of
nations did not meet until Thursday
evening. At that time the completed
draft of the covenant, comprising q
articles, was submitted. There is no
longer any doubt In Paris that the
league covenant will be part Of
the peace treaty. and in this country
the opposition seems to be losing some
OF les yehemence.
1t was announced that the commits
sion had adopted n section specifically
safeguarding the Monroe doctrine. and
that Geneva, Switzerland, had been se-

Bolshevism made another big play
last week when a soviet government
Of Bavaria was set up In Munich by
the revolutionary central council. The
landtag was dissolved and peoples
commissions appointed. This action
was supported In Wurzburg and Rats
bon. but throughout Bavaria generally
1t was violently opposed not only by
the bourgeolsie but also by the peas
ants. The latter hold control of the
food supply and declared they would
refuse to deliver food while the soviet
government remained In power. The
bolshevIsts prepared measures for fhe
communication Of property and the
formation Of a Red army. while the
government they sought to replace, re-
fusing TO retire, set itself up in Bam-
berg. Later In the week the cltizens
and officials Of Wurzburg struck
against the soviet government and
ousted Its agents after severe fighting.
The diet met In Bamburg and the min
listers said they.regarded the situation
with confidence and that outside help

An important and interesting part
OF the treaty. which has been formu-
lated, deals with water and rail COM
municatlons In enemy states. Freedom
Of transportation through Germany and
Austria and equality OF treatment In
ports and harbors are provided. The

Rhine and Danube provides for the
entrance Of France, Switzerland and
some nonpartisan states to the present

County Agent Frost and four large

About 1900 cans containing eight

runs from Vernon TO Bellows Falls
and then to Boston and the farmers
receive about nine cents a quart for

cent for shipping cost
The sudden announcement that
their market was to be cut off was
very disquieting. Mr.. hrost states
that the delegation visited Alden

milk and that 4 curtailment in pur.
chases was a necessity.

that The Boston interests could give
but there Is not much present pros
