patches forwarded by the Berlin cor
respondent OF the London Times say
that Red army leaders have rejected
the armistice with the reichswehr,
The Reds are now completely under
the Communist leadership of the
"Rote S~oldatenbund." which played
an important part In the Berlin riots
IN 1919.
Berlin.-Germany will be Bolshevirt

could have been prevented by an
earlier peace. DOdderlng political
d~illy-dallying In the Paris conference,
which delayed the peace from Nov. IL,

Development of German Bolsheyism
constitutes the greatest possible men
nee to the present established author

To every demand Of the people of
France, Italy and England for relief
for the intolerable postwar condi-
tions now existing, the various min
istries of those countries point to
Germany and promise II remedy upon
Germany's execution of the Versailles
treaty.
The people Of France expect better
times when Germany pays the indem'
nifty. Italy is operating on a more or
less ever keel on the same expecta-
tions. Doubt OF Germanys' ability to
make further reparations is growing
In England.
Germany will fulfill all the
clauses of the Versailles treaty be-
cause they would be impossible of full
fIllment, even IL the allies occupied
Germany and tried to apply the treaty
themselves.

Farm Publicity.

In travelling through Vermont you
must have noted the gratifying number
Of farm buildings bearing the name OF
the farm. That Is one form of publicity
1t IS fine thing 10 give your farm 4
taking name 1t means more than a
mere sentiment.
The next step in publicity for farms
is indicated by the fact that farm schools
among other things are now teaching
farm students the value of farm adver-
Using.
Very likely the reader may smile pity
ingly at this statement. but the longer
Your smile continues the more will ii
turn into look OF new thought
In the first place no farmer can afford
to produce just the ordinary grade OF
things. This is true whether he is grow
ing fruit or profitable breeds of livestock
Tor seed potatoes, as has Commissioner
f. $ Brigham who has made his project
known even in the southern states and
| is profiting accordingly Farmers can
afford to produce only the best of every.
thing and to get the highest prices they
must let the people know they have Tho
! best TO sell

Governor Clement performed a real
service 10 the people of Vermont when. |
at the state dairymcn ; meeting. he
warned the people OF the danger Of a !
large proportion Of the towns of the
state becoming bankrupt unless there
is "A material curtailment in govern
mcnt expenses. He spoka simple but
bold truth when he said: Absolute
economy must be observed if our towns
are to continue as solvent units of al
great corporation
When ii is remembered that a large
majority Of the towns at the last March
meetings did not know what the state
tax would be and failed to assess Il
tax large enough to pay that tax. the
tax rates Of some towns is alarming
In Wardsboro the tax rate is $4.60. in
Concord 81 80 and in Belvidere $500
on dollar of the grand list If these
towns did not provide for the state tax
| of 10 cents last year. the increase in
the rate for the coming year to pay the
state tax of both years will be almost
contiscatory. Truly such towns must
lind something to do without if they
are TO continue as municipal organi-
zations
The great proportion of town taxes
are raised to pay the state taxes-a di-
rect state tax Of 10 cents. highway
tax of five cents and a school tax OF
eight cents, a total of SO cents. town
taxes for the maintenance Of highways
(Which cannot be less than 90 cents
and for the support of schools These
are all vital purposes and there is seri
