Sixteen world war veterans from one
post of the American Legion in Tulsa,
Okla, have settled upon government
homestead land in Scott County, South
ern Arkansas By cold weather, it is
estimated that 100 ex-service men will
have taken claims on the land,
The territory which will become a
settlement of world war service men,
the first in America, stretches aver
$4,000 acres, composed of adjoining in
dividual tracts of 100 acres each. The
men have to live on the land but seven
months before it becomes their pro-
perty as Arkansas gives residence Gre
dit to soldiers up to two years of army
or navy service.
Part of the men will spend the win
ter on their land, clearing timber,
building, hunting and trapping, for the
tracts abound in deer, fox and lynx
The sixteen who. have already settled
are preparing to establish a central
trading point and town which they will
name 'Iegionnaire." -Four of the
pioneers are married and all have had
farming experience. Homesteading is
now possible in the following other
states; Washington Michigan, Mon
tana, Arizona, New Mexico, Wyoming,
Louisiana, Alabama, Colorado, Idaho
and Oregon.

Dairy and Poultry Products

Dairy and Poultry Products
There has been considerable talk re
Gently about the lessened buying power
of the public, and while this may be {
fact, visit to the market would hard
lY bear out this statement as far a,
dairy products are concerned Retail
ers report an unusually active :cmanc
Tor them, and while this may be partly
accounted for by a tendency to buy
ahead in anticipation of some advances
the market as a whole appears in good
shape at present figures.
Butter prices are fairly high CON
sidering the outcome of last season, and
the break in English produce prices re-
leased supplies of Danish and Argentine
butter for shipment here so that the
market has been nervous and unset
tied the past week. Foreign butter
can be landed here under 45 cents, duty
paid, and this will probably act as a
stabilizing element to keep prices
around present levels for a while.
Fancy fresh northern made goods have
been short and have held their own
around 4j-47 cents for tubs and 50
cents for prints Very little dairy but
ter has come forward and prices are
nominal at 80 cents up.
Fresh eggs have been very scarce for
some time and active bidding for the
light supplies have brought almost
daily advances although at the close
the top seems to have been reached
Tor the time being, with buyers hold
ing off or changing to storage goods
The latter are in such liberal supply
and dealers so anxious to move them
that it seems as though prices would
not be much higher and might even
drop Slightly. Nearby hennerys have
peddled out to regular trade at 1913
cents, westerns from 60-65 cents, for
the finest and down to 40 cents for
held fresh or eggs that have been held
on the market for several weeks.
The cheese market has improved
Slightly, both New York and Wiscon-
sin country prices going up nearly
cent, and dealers have advanced their
prices accordingly, Twins bringing %
cents, and small styles 1925 cents, but
imports are threatening this market
also, Canadian cheese offering for ship
ment at ID cents under local prices
The poultry market has held its
own and consumptive and storing de-
mand seem sufficient to keep stocks
fairly well cleared Fancy chickens
are still in the premium class at 1850
cents. fowl have gone easily at 3l-3S
cents, and ordinary chickens are going
at irregular figures at 30-3j cents. Live
birds have also held steady at former
prices, chickens at 25-35 cents, fowl
going mostly at $3.50 cents, and roost-
ers around % cents.

Twenty-three electrical ranges have
been installed in Middlebury by Ar
thur J. Kenworthy during the past
summer, a record of sales that has been
the envy of other representatives of
the Westinghouse accessories in much
larger towns. Advertising through the
newspapers and particularly through
the unanimous testimonials of salts
faction with the accomplishments of
the ranges by the score or more users
have given the electric range an intro
duction in this village that is expected
to result in double and treble their
popularity next year.

The summer work at Middlebury is
unique among summer schools in that
1t is carried on wholly in special
schools. each of which has its separate
dean, faculty and group of students.
The English, French and Spanish
Schools are as distinctive as though
they were conducted by different in
stitutions widely separated One of the
most distinctive features of the Modern
Language Schools is the promise exact
ed from the students to speak none
other but the language of the schools
during the session.
New York led in supplying 81 stu
dents, Massachusetts, comes second
with SO, and Vermont is third with 80
students in attendance The distribu-
ton of the Summer Session students
among the FIVE schools is as follows:
The French School, 1870; Spanish
School, 81; English School, "a; Chem
5stry School, "a; and the Music School,
