DO YOU HAVE HOGS FOR SALE?

The price of live hogs has not been very high for several months. but the demand for light hogs, feeders, etc, the kind that are usually sold in this section, is greater than since 1919. This demand will likely con- tinue for about four weeks. Light hogs weighing from 50 to 100 lbs. ordinary condition, are now selling around 9 to 10 cents per pound on foot.
 If a man has hogs and no feed.I he'd better sell his hogs now. If he has feed he can afford to risk the market longer, but there are no in- dications at present that there will be an advance for fat stuff.
 Those of you who have hogs to sell within the next month please let me know how many you have and about how much they weigh, and if it IS possible to get car load will let you know when to bring them in for shipment. Don't delay this. The market will moi stay where it is long.
 Yours very truly,
 J. W. SARGENT,
 County Agent.

THE SOCKBOUND BILLION

The old sock, the battered trunk and
the mattress are still the repositories for
large sums of money which should be in
circulation, bringing fair interest to their
owners and helping to ease the financial
stringency. Postmaster Hays is the lat
est authority to note this unproductive
and unsafe boarding of private capital.
He thinks there are somewhere near a
billion dollars thus stored away by for.
eigners and others unfamiliar with mod,
ern savings institutions. He believes re
form of the postal savings service would
help to clear the situation.
A better rate of interest on postal de-
posits, withdrawal of the restrictions
against depositors under 10 years of age,
the provision for joint and trust funds.
increasing the number of offices where de-
posits may be handled, better arrange
ment for compensation of postmasters,
handling savings deposits and better OPP
Grafton generally form the framework of
his proposal. There is little doubt that
the postal savings service meets a need,
and that thus far it has never been op.
Grated along lines which develop any.
thing like its full possibilities. Improve.
ment should mean service to the public
and the release of considerable part of
that sock-bound billion.

SWered.

For reasons of economy a certain
dowager had to part with her butler,
relates an English exchange. She gave
him a cordial reference to a prospec-
tive employer. A few days later she
was annoyed to get a catechism of
questions from this lady "Was he cour-
teous, gentlemanly, honest, and of dis
tinguished appearance?" To which
she replied: The Dowager Lady
Blank wishes to say that If her butler
owned half the virtues enumerated she
would have married him herself years
ago"

Removing Ink Stains.

Pyrophosphate Of soda Is recon-
mended for the removal of ink stains.
This salt does not injure vegetable
fiber and yields colorless compounds
with the ferric oxide of the ink. 1t
is best to first apply tallow to the
Ink spot, then wash in a solution of
pyrophosphate until both tafow and
Ink have disappeared. Another formula
Is to use a mixture of four parts of
tartar and two parts of powdered
alum. This is not injurious to Goth.
Other stains also may be removed with
it.

FOX'S HEALTH HINTS

- over the hill to the farm, "Those
chickens do not know what is good
for their health and | must tell them. y
Now, the chickens were living in a
house by themselves and Mr.. Fox
knew right well they were foolish and
not old enough to know anything
about him, so he crept up to the win

loud whisper, lit is sin and shame

The chickens We're all light sleepers
and open came their eyes at once,
and there stood Mr.. Fox smiling in the
most friendly manner, and how We're
they to know he was not as kind as he
looked?

SOBER MEMS FOOD.

Never before in the history of the
world" says the president of the
American Caterers association, have
mems palates become so sensitive and
particular" And what is the cause of
this remarkable development in apprecia-
ton of the delicate fiavOrs and nuances
of food and drink? He attributes it to
nothing less than prohibition.
In the old days, he explains, when a
meal was so often preceded by a cocktail
or two and accompanied by wine or beer
were but half appreciated, or the eater
was satisfied with" poor food, badly
cooked and served There is little reason
to doubt this statement. Alcohol noto-
riously dulls mems taste 1t was a ia
miliar fact of the old regime that habit
ual indulgence in alcoholic drinks led
men to crave strong condiments, in or
der to impart an appreciate flavor to
food which the stupefied palate no longer
appreciated.
Abstention from strong drink, there
fore, has a double effect. 1t encourages
culinary artists to do their best in the
preparation of fine and delicate foods, in
the assurance that their efforts will be
better recognized. 1t also tends to cre-
ate a genuine appreciation of the nat
ural flavors of meats, fruits and vege-
tables. on the part of people who have
long forgotten them. This latter effect
is far more important than the former
hpcauSp IL leads TO SIMMER living and
sounder digestion.

Intentions may be good, but it is the legls-
latures that tells the governors where they
get off on any such program. Back home
those boys who wish to take fling in the
halls of fame" must see that THE ones
they send to the legislature have the right
slant on some of the things that are being
put through the legislative hopper. Here
is where the thing must start. Those ia
miliar with the inside team work well
know how these things are played. Every
town should see at the next session that
the man going there should be impressed
with one thing-econOmy-nO niggardly,
but good business mans idea of the
word 1t is high time there was a shift.
The ex-governor who is evidently making
study of state affairs, said something
at the meeting in the aforesaid quiet town
of Essex Junction. He doesn't mince his
words, and gives the state something it is
hoped will seep in. But lamp this from
the Waterbury Record in speaking of
the talk: "Betcha this means Somethin' S
goin' to be doin'." Harry couldn't help
saying that.

The American Association for RecOg-
milton of the Irish Republic had a parade
in New York city ON the Fourth. 1t was
a dignifed and impressive demonstration
though a futile one.
The United States government is not
going to recognize the Irish republic as
long as there is any hope of Ireland and
England settling the affair themselves.
Neither is the United States government
going to recognize the Irish republic as
long as relations between the United
States and Great Britain remain friend
IIy. Most Americans recognize the su
preme value of the two great English
speaking nations working together to
and perpetuate the highest ideals of civ
ilization, and know that American inter
ference in an internal problem of the
British Empire would mar the hopeful
prospect.
There might have been a still larg-
er number of volunteers for a procession
against Inp intrusion u luG IItSH lutS-
ton into American politics and asking
our Irish and English friends on the
other side to solve their own problem
For every dispassionate American, while
sympathizing strongly with Ireland's past
wrongs, recognizes that this is not prop
erly an American problem at all.
There are two sets of propaganda be-
ing carried on in this country. both EN-
barrassing and mischievous. One is an

\ Good Program.
81. Albans NIessenger.

II is welcome news that the Vermont
Hotel association is to undertake on its
own account a publicity campaign which
aims at letting the rest of the country
know of the many attractions, summer
and winter. which this state has for
those who seek rest and recreation away
from their usual haunts. ...#
The state has issued in the past some
very excellent and substantial advertising
of Vermont as a playground. but the
state cannot be expected to bear the whole
burden. If the hotel association goes
about its effort in the proper way-and it
probably will as it has engaged a trained
and experienced publicity man-better
and quicker results win be achieved
Constant advertising is the avenue over
which Vermont resorts will be kept filled
up the year round. This assumes, of
course. that our hotels and inns viii pre-
pare themselves to take care of the guests
in a satisfactory way. There is no use
advertising unless the goods can be fur
nished, The natural opportunities are
here without stint. Man must do his
share. Good hotels plus good advertising
and the problem will be solved

which are unrelated to the life of the
pupil. This is not education, which has
a larger social and individual meaning.
If the United States Chamber of Com
merce achieves its purpose of insuring
adequate school-housing and other equip
ment for every child in the land, ade-
quate training and education for sufi-
cient supply of teachers, and adequate
and intelligent interest on the part of
the public, it will have done a big work.
Surely the educators would then be able
to work out program of genuine edu-
cation.
