OPPORTUNITY

opportunity never has to knock
twice at the door Of the man who
4 awake" --R. Spillane.
This is equally true OF
boys. and girls. Those
who are awake are
ready for every op-
portunity. Many have
found that a savings ac-
count often opens the
door when opportunity
knocks.
How about you? Are
you awake? Are you
building your savings
account against that
day when opportunity
shall knock at your
door?
The Montpelier Savings
Bank & Trust Company,
Montpelier, Vermont, is
always glad Of the OPP
portunity to help the
boys and girls save. You
may deposit by mail, IT
more convenient.

MOUNTED POLICE TO
enforce STOCK LAW

In an effort TO protect Rich
mond's new paved streets, the
city council in April passed an
ordinance requiring that stock be-
ing driven in to town or through
town, must use the back streets.
AS Monday is county court day
and there will be much livestock
brought to- town between now
and then, Chief of Police Devore
is taking steps to enforce the or
dinancc. Mounted officers will
be stationed at Tatc's Creek av-
enue .at Lancaster avenue and
also out at the railroad tracks to
steer" herds and droves Of live
stock the back streets. Large
signs are being printed giving
full warning to stock drivers Of
the ordinance and the penalty.
Chief Devore is pointing out that
it is only a matter of few min
utes longer to get through town
either via North street, Irvine
street, Second stseet or others
which are named in the ordin~
ance. The cooperation Of coun-
try people is asked in this work.
as travel by great herds Of live
stock has already done much
damage to the asphalt streets.

that the use of alcohol shall be
encouraged, but the very article
that is being manufactured for i'll
idustrial purposes and which must
be encouraged can be made pot
able liquor by adding little wa
ter and brown sugar.
"This is being overcome to some
extent by refusing permits to
handle the same illegitimately
and by providing for the denatur-
ing of the alcohol as far as posi-
bic before it leaves the distillery.
Home brew presents another
grave problem and Of this Mr..
Kramer said:
There is no question i'll my
mind that quite a number of fam
lies have been making home
brew. This is fad, an adventure.
Men who are engaged in it al
ready have ceased and it will, as
view it, die from its own results
We have not devoted 50 much at
tention to this question, being
afraid to do 50. lest we
create reaction against the law.

SEASONS COMPLETE
AVERAGE IS S14.66
Richmond Market Closes Thurs
day With S,121,270 Pounds
Sold For $1,191,082.74

With a seasons average of
$14.66 per hundred pounds, which
local tobacco men say will give
the other markets something to
shoot at, the Richmond tobacco
warehouses closed their season
Thursday, March 81. Final sales
were held Thursday and all REM
nants Of crops cleaned up.
! The total sales were 8,121,2 ,270
/ pounds for a total of 81, ,191, ,092,-
"a; average $14.66.
Just how far tobacco fell off
can be seen by a comparison of
this seasons figures with last. At
the close of the Richmond mar
ket in March, 1920, a total of g.
523,160 pounds were sold for an
average Of $46,22,. and a total of
$3,939,857.22 was distributed
among those who sold over the
local floors.
The sales and sums realized by
each of the two houses were as
follows:
Home Tobacco Warehouse, a.
1880 pounds, sold for total of
$698,830.45.
Madison Tobacco Warehouse
sold 3,339930 pounds for a total
OF $492,20229.
These figures are official as is
sued by Supervisor of Sales Stone
w. Norman, after all accounts
had been checked up after the fn-
al sales Thursday.
1t is expected that both Rich
mond houses will show a nice
profit on their books after pay
ment of all expenses. 1t is un-
derstood that there was practi-
cally no "house buying" during
the season just closed. The mar
ket was so precarious at times,
that the management of each
house kept off the bidding almost
entirely. For this reason. neither
house has any "house tobacco" on
hand so far as can be learned and
what is profit over and above y
cessary expenses is made this
season. Profits for the past sea-
son or so are said to have been
greatly reduced by the practice of
house buying" during the sea-
son. At the usual commission of
two and a half per cent on sales,
the gross profits of each house
would be on above sales: Home
House S17,47O77; Madison House
f$12.306.56. Of course heavy ex-
penses c9me out of these figures.
However,, it is reported each
house Eil1 declare a dividend.
