STILL USE ST. BERNARDS
Tunnels, However, Have Greatly De-

-- - the Alps.

Although the tunnels which now con-
meet Switzerland with Italy have
greatly decreased the Importance Of
the st. Bernard and other passes, espe-
cially during the eight months of snow,
1t is still deemed advisable to employ
st. Bernard dogs. 1t is no longer GUS
tomary, however, to send out the dogs
alone with baskets of food and drink !;
a man always accompanies them.
These dogs are not really of the IA
NOUS old St. Bernard breed. That
originated I'm the fourteenth century,
through a cross between a shepherd
dog from Wales and Scandinavian
dog whose parents were Great Dane
and Pyrenean mastiff. The last pure
descendant of this tribe was buried
under an avalanche in 1915. Fortu-
nately, there were found subsequently
at Martigny and on the Simplon pass
q. few dogs which. by crossing with
mates from Wales, yielded the modern
ST. Bernard dog. which is physically
even stronger than his medieval
pamesake. and shares most of his
traits.

LARGE RETURNS FROM MINT
United States Supplies Bulk of Pep

World.

The bulk OF the peppermint oil Of
the world is produced on the muck
lands of southwestern Michigan and a

total yearly product is estimated at
100000 pounds. There are two vari-
cites of peppermint, the American and
the English or Mitchem. The latter
has almost superseded the American.

climate, and favored by the trade IT
is also harder and yields larger crops.
The ideal mint farm is one having
both high land and muck soil, which is
distinct advantage on account Of the
rotation and humuS in the soil, de-
cayed vegetation being essential to the
er amounts and kinds of commercial
fertilizer, I, rye crops of mint can be
grown for many years i'm succession
on the same ground. The mint plant,
after the oil is removed, makes a very
desirable feed for live stock, returning
about the same amount of food value
as an acre of ordinary meadow land,
besides the oil. Thus two profits are
harvested from one acre of peppermint.
An acre of peppermint will yield
from 20 to 60 pounds of oil, while
second cutting will yield from six to
20 pounds extra. The farmer needs
no extra equipment to grow this crop
than found on the ordinary farm ex-
cept a small still to refine the oil. In

CITY HAS LONG BEEN DEAD
Tiahuanaco, in Bolivia, Collection of
Ruins of Which Even the Incas
Knew Nothing.

One of the numerous cities claiming
the title oldest city in the world"
is TiahuanacO, near Lake Titicaca In
Bolivia. A thousand years ago. say
the scientists, Tiahuanaco was as dead
as it is today, and that is practically
all that anybody knows of Its history.
Even the Incas, who hold record for
antiquity in South America. admitted
TO their first Spanish visitors that they
knew nothing about Tiahuanaco. ex-
cept that it was very probable that
the stone images scattered over the
ruins were the people of the city turned
into stone by some angry god.
There would be nearly as much of
the old city visible today as there was
I'm the time Of the Incas, had not the
stones been so attractive to the In
dams of nearby villages AS it is,
beautifully carved idols have gone to
decorate the door fronts of humble cot
tages, and polished stones to prop up
chimneys and pave floors. The little
modern village of Tiahuanaco, near the
ruins, is full of stolen souvenirs. Whole
houses and churches are built of them.
After several centuries of this plum.
der the government of Bolivia put a
ban on removing stones from the ruins,
but there was then little left Of old
Tiahuanaco. A few stone gods as
huge and angular as any defties Of
Egypt. the sites of a fortress, a palace
and many tombs, all vaguely marked
by worn carved stones are scattered
over great desoIate plain. Yet from
these battered relics with their cryptic
carvings the psychologists hope some
day to reconstruct the story Of a mys-

Waitsburg team on the local grounds
and took them down for their only de-
feat this year. While the game was
close it was much less spectacular
than the Kennewick-Pasco match on
Thanksgiving. While Kennewick made
most of her gains against Pasco by
line plunges, they were unable to so
easily penetrate the heavy Waitsburg
line. The feature of Fridays game
was Kennewick's forward passes, five
out of six attempts being successful.

There is a stingy bachelor who's living by himself, And all the bread and cheese he gets he puts up on the shelf The rats and the mice, they congre- gate and tarry, And all his neighbors tell him that he really ought to marry.

CAPITAL AND LABOR TO MEET

The nation has cause to look for ward with much hope to the confer ence of capital labor, farming and government interests which is to be held in Washington next month, pro- viding of course, that no particular class of those represented will be so wrapped up in it's own interests that it will ignore the arguments of the other side It is time that steps were taken to bring the directing and the producing ends of business together at a meeting which should end the tend ency of the different classes to drift apart. Without the director of an or ganization, who has become known as "capital," whether he is money maker or not, there could be no busi- ness. ''Without the producing end, or "labor," the same is true. Either side may easily t"kill the goose that is lay ing the golden egg
 Tn an effort to solve the problems which confront us the two factions will be called together, with the far mer and the government to look on and inject a word or two of their own when the argument threatens to in- volve things which affea them, Will! they solve our question We believe so. Labor, as we'll as capital, understands that it cannot take all there is in a business and leave that business to insure it jobs. Capital knows that it needs the good will of the workman in it's plant, and should be ready to give what it may afford to obtain that good will In a broad, general, way the conference will discuss the balance of power and the remuneration for the same. It will indirectly affect all of us eventually. It is a gratifying "open forum

Irish Flag From City Hall

Who will pay the fine liable as result of flying the flag of Ireland?
 If section 64-66 of the revised statute of the State of Connecticut was enforced as stated in the Herald of September 2, 1919 on previous occasions when other flags were flown on the municipal building of New Britain and s100 was collected for each offense we Americans of Irish birth or descent, law abiding citizens of this republic will willingly comply with the above statute as lovers of liberty and fair play. We would like to have you, through your public press give the names of the con- scientious objectors as they may be a branch of the same tree which hid behind the dollar in the past wars and hired the Irishmen to do the fighting for them as they hide behind the public press today after making the Irishmen fight for Democracy and in return gave them toryism and auto Cracy.
 George Washington well said in 1788: Patriots of Ireland, cham pions of liberty in all lands be strong in hope, your cause is identical with mine, you are Calumniated in your day, I was misrepresented by the Loyalists of my day, had I failed the scaffold would be my doom but now my enemies pay me honor, had I failed I would have deserved the same honor. 1 stood true to my cause even when victory had fled. Tn that I merited success. The statement of the father of the greatest republic in the world is as true today as in 1788. We have with us loyalists and tories today, hiding behind the public press by the power of their financial standing as in 1776 when they paid these same people to fight for them and today, had thefy their say, the scaffold would be their doom For tunately in this city as well as the great republic. We are a part of these Loyalists and Tories are as few now as they were in the seventies and their misrepresentation and calumniations will have no more effect today than then. The good ad vice of George Washington has been closely followed by the Irish eXtrac ton of this country. There was never any objection to the display of the then Irish flags on the many battle fronts for the establishment of this republic or the maintenance of it. Afterwards the army and navy of this republic had no objection to the display of the Irish flag or the Irish soldiers in the battle fronts of Europe, they both stood the test and the flag of the sister Irish republic will withstand the ingrates of today as the Stars and Stripes of America did in her day. The flag of America and the flag of Ireland have flown to- gether from many public buildings. masts and flag poles both for freedom and fair play to all the world and will continue. we hope.

Twentieth Century HerOism.
Providence Journal.


 Here is a little reminder of human heroism:
 1.-TWO hundred and fifty miles of British war medal ribbon are to be issued to the men and women entitled to these decora tions through recent edicts of the king
 Shortly before the great war opened it was customary to say that we were living in a prOSaiC and deCadent age. The days of glory were forever dead. Adventure and romance had died out of life.
 Then the world struggle began and from it's very outset proved to us that all our philosophy was wrong. There was just as much courage and spirit in the race as ever. Men and women were just as ready to give themselves for their fellows and for the future of civilization. Self-denial and sacri- fee became cOmmOnplaces The brightest and best of Europe's sons, and in time a large number of our own cherished lads, laid down their lives in the conflict for liberty and democracy.
 Two hundred and fifty miles of war medal ribbon, to be issued by the British government alone--that tells the story.

Sending White Feathers to Girls.
(New York Sun.

Almost every person with an imag- inatiOn is more or less of an actor and the war has made human kind more dramatic than ever. Now we read, in a despatch from prosy Man chester, that certain demobilized Eng fish soldiers "are getting even with young women who in the early days of the war would write them anony- nous letters containing white feath- CTS" These young women, says the item, are receiving white feathers for taking over mems jobs and refusing to give them up, and the result has been that some of the girls have quit thelr places.
 This is dramatic, but it is not in spring. In A. E. w. Masons fine novel, "The Four Feathers" the hero returned the symbols of cOWardice to the three men and the woman who sent them to him when he exhibited an inherited weakness by dodging war. He brought them back one at a time, after four acts of gallantry and atoned for his apparent sin. But he did not want their jobs or anything else eX- cept their acceptance of the white plumes as a token of their belief in his self-redemption. If the soldiers brought back the feathers to the la dies in the same spirit that was shown by MT. Mason's young man it would be fine; but to send them as custer doCum ents is small.
 The women who took mems places in industry during the war frequently showed as much devotion-particula ly in the munition factories-as the men who went into the ranks. If some have decided, for economic req sons or otherwise, that they want to keep their jobs, the gallant thing for the men to do is to go and find other work; there must be plenty of 1t at good wages throughout England.
 Sending white feather to a lady is not only rude but it indicates ignor ance of the origin of customs The white feather is particularly for the male. It is phrase of the cockpit,

A Fitting Recognition.
(BriStOl Press. }

The action of the new American Legion post of Plainville in adopting the name Brock Barnes deserves most hearty endorsement. It is a fitting recognition of the service rendered by a daughter and a son of that town, both of whom gave their lives for country and humanity. It is a grace full tribute to Miss Monica Brock ~ho volunteered as an army nurse, served faithfully and died in the cause And in thus hOnoring her memory tribute is paid to those thousands of other women who in many departments of activity did their full and important part in helping win the war thus glorifying service and American wom- anhood.
 The name Barnes is in honor of Francis Barnes, the first Plainville boy to earn the highest decoration of a soldier-the wooden cross.
 We extend assurances of apprecia- tion to the soldiers of Plainville who have used such excellent taste in choosing a name, and we earnestly hope the post will enjoy the largest possible success.

Won't Flat Own Wheat.
(BridgepOrt POSt.)

There is Q small but highly modern and efficient grist mill in the Samp Mortar Rock district of Fairfield, and to the mill comes all sorts of grain that is raised in the district about Bridgeport. It might surprise many Bridgeporters to learn, incid entally, that much wheat is raised herea bouts respectfully by farmers not of the na- tive Yankee type, who were accus- toned in the old country to seeing wheat raised at home.
 About these men, however, one pe- culiar thing has been noticed.
 They bring their grain to be ground into flour. When the flour has been made they sell it to the mill for cash and then with this cash they buy western flour of one of the well known brands, paying a higher price for it, but insisting upon getting it be- cause it is "White." It is no finer or better than their own flour, but has been whitened by the bleaching pro- cess, that is all.
 Then Q, lot of native Americans hereabOuts go to the mill and buy the local flour because it is NOT white, and they prefer it unbleached.
 That's a funny exchange, isn't it?
