The Bellows Falls Times pokes little
fun at the Womans clubs, including the
one in its own town, which sent kilograms
to Vermont congressman urging the pas
sage of the Sheppard-Towner maternity
bill which, on being studied, appears to be
about the last thing American mothers
would want enacted into a law. The
Times quotes Rev. A. z. Conad of the
Park Street church, Boston, who was the
preacher in the Old Rockingham meeting
house at the last pilgrimage and recently
referred to the bill as an idea imported
from foreign countries and supported by
propaganda. As law, it would lead to
the naturalization of the home and mean
the handing over to unmarried women the
responsibilities of the married women of
the country. The Times ends by saying
that I" probably all the Bellows Falls wo.
men who favored the bill had read it. :"

Costa Rica FARMING Country.

Nearly every adult male in Costa
Rica is a landholder. The republic
is essentially an agricultural country.
Under a carefully planned system the
government allots lands to applicants
on advantageous terms. This plan is
largely responsible for the country's
efficiency in agriculture. The banana
is the most profitable crop. Millions
of punches are exported annually.
Coffee is the next important crop.
Costa Rican coffee is of excellent
quality and is in demand in all mar
kets. Sugar, cacao, rice and corn are
grown, but only for local consump-
ton. Stock raising and numbering
are carried on. The quantity Of lum-
Der is being increased each year.
Among the minerals are silver, gold
and copper, which are exported in
considerable quantities.

Underwood Has Fine Cows

Recently r. B. Yates, of the Hood
River Creamery, on receipt of ship
ment of cream from Rev. II. V. Rom
niger, Underwood, Wash, orchardist
and retired minister, thought the fam
lily cream separator was out of adjust
ment. so thick was the cream. In
sending in his report, Mr.. Yates sug-
gested that the cream was too thick.
He has just received reply from
Mrs. Rominger, who declares that her
product cannot be thinned.
The Rominger cow probably holds a
mid-Columbia record. In addition to
furnishing butter and milk for the
family, receipts from cream checks the
latter part of last year totaled more
than $l25. On one occasion, Mrs.
Rominger sent batch of cream to a
Portland friend, she writes. 1t was so
thick that she had to remove it from
a pan with case knife. The impress
sion of the pan remained in the thick
cream when it arrived at its destina-
tion. Mrs. Rominger writes that the
prize cowshas calf, which the family
has just started to milk, that bids fair
to outstrip her dam.
