THE TRUTH ABOUT CORN IN THE
HOG.

One of our learned city newspaper
editors tells us that corn in the hog
is worth 80 cents a bushel, while corn
sold in the raw for cash is worth only
As cents a bushel. The said learned
city writer draws the conclusion,
therefore that it will be very profita-
BILE for hog raisers to feed their corr
to hogs this winter.
We don't pretend to be corn ex-
perts, or hog experts, or experts on
corn in the hog, but we believe that
our city friend has overlooked a few
things. That which lies between the
AZ cents for cash corn and so cents
for corn in the hog, is not merely
corn.
When you have sold your bushel OF
corn for As cents and delivered it, the
bushel OF corn has passed from your
life. But if you refrain from selling
it, and feed it to hogs instead, you add
some things that should count as ex
renses. The labor of feeding the
bushel OF corn into the hog, the labor
of taking proper care of that hog, the
work and risk of keeping that hog
alive, the expense of providing him
with a comfortable home, the meas
ures to protect the feed from preda.
tory animals, and finally the toll,
trouble and dangers of moving a liv.
ing bushel of corn rather than an in
animate bushel of corn to market.

HONEY PHILOSOPHY FOR 1921.

Yes, the auto is a great convent
ence and also a great pleasure, but
but-we can't forget our good old
friend, THE HORSE. AS Will Ogilvie
reminds us in Field" he was of the
days that were steadfast, staunch and
slow; when we took time to think
deeply and when our brains made us
firm in faith and hearty to principle
and duty. Says Ogilvie:
Along the road the ceaseless motors
thrust,
Shrieking discordant warnings and
harsh blame.
Then suddenly, proud stepping
through the dust,
Comes what I'll call for want of
better name
One of the Old Contemptibles.

With grief unguessed | stand and
watch him go.
He carries with him much that nursed
our pride;
Remembered things; things stead

Making Up the Loss.

While an errand boy vas conveying
a truckload of soda water syphons
through the street, the wheel suddenly
came off, with the result that every
bottle was smashed.
The lad showed signs of much dis
tress and a crowd speedily congre-
gated to ascertain the nature of the
disaster.
After seeing what had happened, a
benevolent old gentleman expressed
his sympathy, and gave the lad a dol
lar, an example which was followed by
other by-standers.
Enough money was eventually sub
scribed to replace the damaged goods.
The boy proceeded to repair his bar
row as best he could, and the specta-
tors dispersed with the exception OF
one, more curious than the rest, who
inquired if the lad knew who his kind
~benefactor was who started the col
lection.

Ident of the Fallkill Construction Co.
both OF whom have been on the lob from
the beginning. are much pleased with the
quality of the gravel available for this
work, charcteriZiug il as the finest they
eyer have seen. 1t is taken from the
button farm. and it contains just enough
clay to make it pack down hard.
With the exception of the strip of road
across the Johnson place, previously re-
ferred to, the project follows substan-
tally the old course until the Dutton
farm Is reached. At a point south of the
button pine grove the new road swings
10 the west 50 as to avoid a dangerous
curve. crossing the button farm along
the site of an old road given up many
years ago and joining the Travelled road
again near the Dutton farmhouses. Men
and teams are now making a cut across
the farm at this point, TO give the road
the proper grade, and some of the dirt
e~XcaVated is used in grading. 1t is here
that the gravel deposit referred to was
found. q 1t is millions of yards in extent
and of high grade.
Just north of the Dutton farmhouspS
a steam shovel is at work removing rock
that has been blasted. together with some
dirt. This shovel with its crew of five
men will remove from 800 to 700 yards
OF earth a day, or of rock excavation 300
yards or more, doing work that would
require 10 men if done by hand. AT. this
point in the story it may be stated that
besides the steam shovel about 90 men,
eight teams and two motor trucks are be-
ing employed IN the project.
\ short distance north of where the
steam shovel is at work j. the Bottfnelly
place, the house being one of a small

From THIS point in the road 1T would
have cost an additional $4,000 to have
built directly across the deep %ravine, as
a high Till and some masonry would have
been required. 50 it was decided to keep
TO the old road which follows along down
the side of the %ravine, past the watering
trough. The sharp curve at the top is
being greatly reduced and the road wild
encd considerably al the way down.
Near the watering trough two drills
are being operated by q gasoline engine

rock. They viii drill - feet an hour
each. II two men drilled 20 feet in a

and to this end the cement bridge there
is being widcned II feet. The roadway
ut this point win be Is feet wide. The
ledge n few rods beyond the bridge is
being blasted out to remove a blind
curve. This is the northerly limit of OPP
o~rations thus far, and beyond that point
a detour begins, taking traffic around
through Slab Hollow and down past the
Lewis Lynde place to the new road above
the Crosby pond.
The rest of the road has been surveyed
and staked out, however. TO the Putney
line. The survey calls for a greatly re
duced curve beyond the TarbOx or old
Shoies place, at the south entrance to
Murder Hollow. also the elimination of
the curve near the SchOolhouse at the
north entrance to Murder Hollow. Some
blasting will be done above the Glidden
place. and two or three sharp turns north
Of there will be removed and better
grades established.
I The estimated cost of the project is
about S130.0O0, which will be paid
jointly by the state of Vermont and fed
aral government. 1t is a very important
undertaking, one that the travelling pub
lie will appreciate. and it should result
N a greater degree of prosperity to this
corner of the state.
