VERMONT NEED

Daniel L. Cady Raps

Rossiter, of Rumford. said az

Cady of Burlington, the well
known writer of Vermont verse.
But what Of it! There are other
adjectives in the language as i'm

nouns that mean as much as
"awakening".
OF course, we do not come up
to Massachusetts, in the matter Of
making shoes by machinery, but if
the count were taken on the score
of freedom from strikes by the
guardians of the public safety,
where would Massachusetts be-.
We do not manufacture as many
organs and pianos as New York,
but if the count were taken on the
score of freedom from bomb
throwing and mail robbing, where
would New York come in? AS
Tennyson says, we were born for
other things; we have our. own
ork and our own characteristics :;
we are, as we" have been, and are
likely to be suigeneric, that is,
we are like ourselves, and we are
no more the proper subjects for
the Rossiterian brand of statistics
than are the aaints and angels.
Size us up, Lord Rossiter; fetch
on your statistics; but come with
the kind that takes account of
our character and attachments as
a bucolic people; that takes az
count of the reserve character, SO
to speak, which we have patiently
laid up to fall back upon in that
day of wrath when the policemen
strike and the bombs explode and
the red flag of the socialists come
marching up Washington street
and Broadway.

an interesting letter regarding her ex-

This Mysterious Pain Ease mem
toned in Mrs. Leonard's letter is a
Scotch Liniment. II acts in such a
way that it relieves inflammation
which causes pain. In fact when they
first started to use it, its effects were
so quick in the relief of pain that peo-
pie really thought there was something
mysterious about it. Hence its name,
given it by the thousands of people
whose pains it has relieved
Many people, both men and women,
in all walks of life, heartily endorse
it, They recommend it for pains of
neuralgia, neuritis, sciatica, muscle
cramps, chilblains and pains arising
from infammations, rheuma tism,
sprans of all kinds, Iumbago, burns,
stiff neck and muscular colds where

DOESN'T WANT TO MOVE.
Vermont Livestock Department Dis
posed to Question Order.

The members of the state department
Of agriculture do not take kindly to
the edict, issued from the board of CON
troll, that the department be moved
forthwith from the State House
to the Union block, and it looks
as though the employees of that
department expected to sit tight until
Governor elect James Hardness takes
his office and then ask the new board
of control to change the plans. DR., A.
J. DeFossett, head of the livestock
branch of that department, said Sun
day afternoon, relative to the matter,
that the department did not want to
move; that it is the biggest depart
ment, composed of SO employees, and
Vermont being an agricultural state
the department should be close TO the
legislature, where the committees could
reach the department at any time.
In the year just closed, through DIR.
DeFossett's efforts. the federal govern
ment has paid to Vermont farmers 49,
072.66, which has been indemnity for
cattle killed because of tuberculosis;
and the state has matched that sum
DR. DeFossett last Saturday wrote the
federal department, asking for 100000
for similar work in 1921 and expects 20
be able to get il, He is opposed to GO
ing into the smaller quarters, claiming
that the present ones are inadequate
enough. of the SO employees in the de.
partment 25 are under his supervision:
Is in the forestry department; 10 in
the cow testing association work. eight
in the agricultural work; four in the
dairy manufacturing specialities, and
one in the bureau of markets. In add.
tion to the expenditure mentioned
above, the federal government pays to
employees in Vermont in this depart
ment $4,000 annually so that DeFos-
sett thinks the livestock department at
least should be given quarters in the
State House.
