ORANGE COUNTY
FARM BUREAU
Notes for Week Ending Nov. a..

The heavy snowfall the first of the
week making auto travel impossible
eliminated the plans for the work OF
the week. The time has been spent In
the office getting ready the annual re-
port of the farm bureau which has to
be submitted to the extension service
director Dec. /.
Favorable reports have come to the
office of the increasing interest in the
prospective COW test associations in
Thetford and Williamstown. As soon
as possible organizations of associa'
tions will be formed so that when a
capable man is found as tester the as.
ISOLATION can start operations without
DELAY.
Letters will be sent out from the
Office in the near future to the farmers
who secured farm account books offer
ing the assistance in summarizing the
accounts for the year, We would like
to emphasize the Importance of the
summary of the account books not
from the standpoint OF accomplish
ment for the farm bureau but for the
actual benefit brought to the farmer
who has kept the accounts. II is a
purely business proposition with tho
farmer and no publicity is given to the
individual losses or gains. Over l30
books were placed last year and We
would like at least half of them sent in
for summarization of the complete ae
counts.

Animals on the Road.

Susette, former star chimpanzee now
in the New York geological park, who
recently gave birth to the second OF
the species ever born in captivity, gave
evidence of JOY in motherhood closely
akin to human. Susette Rugged her
babe close to her and resented the APP
proach of the too curious stranger
And although Papa Bona did not pass
cigars to celebrate the arrival, he
showed hysterical JOY that mother and
child were doing as well as could be
expected. Papa Bona acted very
much like the human father under
similar circumstances, only the human
father has conventionalized his expires
sion of joy.
Research has done much to narrow
the chasm once thought to exist be-
tween the highest animal and lowest
man Give articulate speech to horse
and he would shame his master out OF
many bad practices. As it is, he
speaks plainly enough with his imper.
feet resources. Animals may or may
not have language that they use be-
tween themselves, but at least they
have ways of expressing their emotions
through the slant of the ears, the
bristling of their hairy coats, the wag
ging of tails, through yelp, bark or
purr.
Many animals likewise approach
close to human affection and TO hui
man ways of expressing it. And
naturalists find such human frailities
as conceit, pride of display, resentment
and retaliation in the feathered world.
Constructive abilities of high order
are found in the animal world. Not
only do many species indulge in play,
but Others are miners, masons, earpen,
ters, weavers and lace makers. A wasp
in building set of mud cells in a win
dow frame shapes all with nice care
and an elegant smoothness. A study of
bird architecture is something inspiring
to pursue. An oriole succeeds in COM
biniug comfort and concealment in
building her nest, and swings it from a
panel or a bough with charming and
esthetie grace.
The tree of life from primordial cells
up to mammals show intelligence ever
widening up to man. The human tribe
and clan have foregleams of their or
ganization in the social life of bees
and ants All animals are somewhere
on the road to progress. Some stop at
one point and some at another. But
the higher animals retaining plastic
power are but little behind the low
