Boy Scoutism Demonstrated.
BARRE Times.

Whether or not his ability TO swim was
the result of boy scout training, il seems
probable that the presence of mind and
courage demonstrated by Mando Gagetta
in rescuing n youngSter from drowning in
the Mackville pond at Hardwick recently
was the development of the training given
to the members of the boy scouts. Young
Gagetta (GO-getter he might appro-
priately be called was passing along the
highway in n team when he noticed a
young boy floundeFing about in deep
water. evidently in distress and in imme-
date danger of drowning. Without con-
sidering his own chances in a life and
death struggle with the drowning lad.
young Gagetta plunged into the pond and
was able. after considerable effort, to get
the drowning lad onto a raft and later
to the shore. The boy scout instruction
is along the line of action taken by the
courageous boy of Hardwick it tends to
develop the best there is in the young fell
lows and it very often is successful in
bringing out the best in a youth. More
over, it instructS in being ready for an
emergency as was so well demonstrated
in the case reported by the Hardwick
Gazette in a recent issue. Parents desi-
rous of developing their sons along sane
and helpful lines could find no better aid
outside their own influence than by hav-
ing the boys join the boy scout movement
and work Fundamentally in its various
lines, including a trip to a summer camp
where the boys are taught to swim and to
do other things which are almost indis-
penSable to hfe'S emergencies. If the boys
have the stuff in them land most of them
havel it will be developed greatly through
training and association gained through
the boy scout organization.

SCARCITY OF BEEF CATTLE.
4OO. 900 Less in Seven States Than at the
Same Time Last Year

WASHINGTON, July 10.-Informa-
tion received by the United States bureau
of markets and crop estimates from differ
ent parts of the country indicate that
there will be a comparative scarcity of
feeding cattle for the markets next fall.
There is now a smaller number of beef
cattle in the Northwest than usual.
The bureau reports 100000 fewer beef
cattle in Washington. Oregon, Idaho.
Montana. Wyoming. North Dakota and
South Dakota than for the same time
last year. In these states there are now
!. 900. 900 beef cattle The decrease is ap-
proximately 8 per cent.
That there has been a general decrease
in the number of beef cattle in the United
States" says statement from the bu-
reau. would seem to be proved by the
fact that during each of the last IL months
receipts at 6S live stock markets have
been less.
The statement says: 1T can be stated
that if the anticipated shortage of stocker
and feeder cattle materializes next fall il
will probably be due largely to: First
a known and material decrease in the
number of cattle in the range states sec
0nd, a marked Improvement in the aver
age weight and flesh condition of the
cattle offered. rendering a larger percent
age than usual suitable for immediate
slaughter, and. third, a sharp curtailment
of imports of stocker and feeder cattle
from Canada"

quarters as a probability. whether he will

signify their belief that CONTINUATION of

the desired result The last contingency,
however. is still considered at Irish head

Warning to Fishermen.
Remington Banner.)

Sunday was good day to go fishing
The weather was right. the streams were
in splendid condition but very few fish
were caught. The reason is not far to
seek. There are not fish enough to fill the
baskets of all who like TO fish. and the
supply is growing less. There are 10
fishermen now where there was one 80
years ago and each year the fishing waters
grow less, owing to pollution, the drying
up of streams and the introduction and
spread of coarse fish. 1t is high time for
the fishermen to take warning and plan
for the future of their sport. Here in
Bennington county there ought to be sew
eral trout clubs, each of which should
build an artificial lake and keep it stocked.
This would relieve the pressure on the
streams and at the same time every club
should cooperate in maintaining the fish
