The Orleans County fair has again
passed into history. No public event
of the size and varied interests of a
fair can be held without differences
dissotisfactiors and injustices, per-
haps, but the 1921 event as whole
must be set down as decided success
1t brought out our home products
and local farm animals to a greater
degree than in recent years, the boys
and girls interests were brought to
the front, new contests were develop
ed and new impetus given our fair
Let us stay behind a worthwhile
event Of this nature, striving always
to improve it.

The result of the influx of Cana
dians into Orleans county in the past
few years is noticeable in the detail
ed census report by counties of the
foreign born whites in Vermont. Or
leans county has the greatest per-
centage of foreign born white popu-
lation of any county in Vermont, 22.9.
The next nearest county in this re-
spcctt is Essex with a percentage of
1914 while Frar kiln follows with 14.9.
These three counties are the Cana
dian border counties which have re-
ceived Canadian farmers in great
numbers in the past decade. The
strange part of the report, however,
Is that while Essex and Franklin
counties show a decrease in the per-
centage of foreign born whites in the
past decade. Orleans county shows
an increase and the greatest increase
of any county. In fact the state
shows loss of Ia per cent. in the
decade while Orleans county shows
an increase of Al per cert. There
is nothing alarming or strange about
this increase. Because a man was
born across the Canadian border and
moves this side of the line constitutes
no particular race problem. 1t should
however, spur US on to every posi-

Water Supply and Evaporation.
Stanstead Up. o. Jo11rn,

Stanstead Up. O. Journal
The evaporation from Holland pond
is about 100000 gallons each "a
hours. The evaporation from Sey-
mour lake in Morgan with an area
of 5000 acres is about 100000 gal
Ions each "a hours. The northern
New England rate of evaporation is
generally admitted to be one-fifth of
an inch in "a hours. The above is
based upon the areas given by the
geodetic survey and one-eighth Of an
inch evaporation in "a hours is used
in these calculations. The residents
about these bodies of water would not
know of any change in the contents
if supply were to be taken from

Moore Haven. (FlaD Time

Moore Haven, (Fla.) Times)
A town that never has anything to
do in public way is on the way to
the cemetery. Any citizen who will
do nothing for his town is helping to
dig the grave. A man that "cusses''
the town furnishes the coffin. The man
who Is SO selfish as to have no time
from his business to give affairs is
making the shroud. The man who
will not advertise is driving the
hearse. The man who is always pull
ing back from any public enterprise
throws bouquets on the grave. The
hard times breaches mo t a,say ,ne row ang
sings the doxology. And thus the
town lies buried from all sorrow and
care.
