SPORTING
UPSTATE SCHOOLS
IN BASEBALL LEAGUE
Discuss Circuit to Include All Schools

Talked Over -

BURLINGTON. Jan. ga baseball
league of four high schools of northern
Vermont has been formed by Principals
!. +. COburn of Burlington high. Lyman
{. Hunt of Spaulding high of Barre, ii.
y. Swafield of Montpelier high, and III.
+. Dickinson of st. Adams high.
Other high schools in this section of the
state, it is expected. Will join this league
later. and letters asking their membership
will be sent them. The principals think
that by the following baseball season Yer
mont high schools viii be formed in one
state league, divided in sections of north
and south, and east and west. if need be
They hope to have the high schools of the
state included in some division of the
league so that recurrenc of the wran-
gle over the just claimant to a champion
ship in any sport, such a. occurred in
football this fall, will not be possible.
The principals agreed that a silver cup
should be purchased and set as a reward
t. the high school winning the league
championship for two or three years. They
could not agree upon this matter. some
preferring that a school be required to
win the championship three and others
two years. However. Principal COlburn
received orders to purchase cup, which
will be paid for by the athletic associa-
tons of the four schools.
Football came in for some controversy
and. before the talk was completed. the
principals agreed that the schedules here
after should be arranged similar to col
lege schedules, each team playing another
but once n year. instead of two games, as
in the past, but that two-year contracts
be made In this manner each high school
would be enabled to meet larger number
of teams during the short football season.
And the results would be much more sat
! iSfactory. in that a high school would
have an opportunity to meet an opponent
! from practically every section of the
| state.
If nine games were scheduled. no team
would be opposed more than once; in
other words. nine different opponents
would be met in one season. instead of a
restricted number of three. four or five.
Five different opponents have been large
number in the past and nine in the pres
ent system would be only a fam schedule
This plan. like the baseball league has
only been agreed upon by the principals
! Of the four schools of the north, but they
expect others will join the ranks TO make

Team Standing.
Constitutional Amendments.
(Enosburg Falls Standard. J

BY no means the least important matter
to come before the present Vermont legis-
lature Is that of the proposed amendments
to the constitution, as submitted by the
commission appointed by the last legisla-
ture.
The first proposed amendment would
make the state constitution consistent
with and contormable to the federal con-
stitution as effected by the recent adopted
amendment granting the suffrage to
women. There can be no sound argument
against this formal recognition of an es-
tablished fact
The second proposed amendment under
which certain items of appropriation bills
could be vetoed, without affecting the re-
malnder OF the measure, is wise and would
go far toward remedying all evil in legis-
Iature that Is not confined to Vermont.
The commission, in proposal seven. rec
ommends a return to the September cleo
tIons, as they existed prior to 1914. 1t
Is stated that large majority of the COM
mission believe this change advisable but
there is minority report against it The
Standard believes the minority members
are right, and that. eliminating purely
sentimental consideration. there is no sub
Stantial argument to be advanced in favor
of going back to the old system.
Another proposal would give the gen.
eral assembly authority to provide for
compulsory voting. Massachusetts and
North Dakota are cited as states where
similar constitutional amendments have
recently beensadOpted. From the stand.
point of considering voting as a duty. a.
We'll as right, this proposal is along right
lines.
The amendments above referred to. A.
well as the others, judicial in character
merit the most careful consideration of the
lawmakers.

served recently on n ranch near Liv-

of about 1000 acres, who formerly
realized returns from the land that
were hardly sufficient to pay taxes,
decided to stock il with cattle. A few
years ago this land was but a series
Of limestone hills, as white and as
bleak as the deserts of Arizona. The
hills were washing away until the
owner conceived the idea Of filing the
gulleys with underbrush to stop the
erosion, and then planted the land
wi il alfalfa. This treatment resulted.
at the end of couple of years, In
yielding one of the richest pastures
ever seen in that part of the country.
The owner then stocked the land with
500 head Of cattle. These he bought as
ycarlirys at S3j head and turned
them in upon the alfalfa lands. where
they were able to find subsistence for
nine months out Of every twelve. Dur
ing the three severe months of winter
the cattle are put, under sheds, where
they feed from silos stocked with millet
nnd corn. At the end OF their second
ycnr these cattle have increased in
weight to 1000 pounds and are sold for
nine cents on the hoof, netting the cat e
tie owner $50 head, or about S2T 800
on the entire herd.
That he is able to tend these cattle
