tains, and it was likewise the
French who were probably the
first white MEN to see those lofty
landmarks which so appropri-
ately give this state Its name.
This was in July, 1909, when
Champlain made his memorable
voyage up the lake now called
after him.
The first permanent settle.
ment was made in 1924 at Brat
tleboro, where the Massachusetts
colony established fort as a
buffer against invasion from the
north. The territory used was
part Of what was known as the
"Equivalent Lands" which were
sold at public auction in Hart
ford for about q farthing an
acre, the proceeds being donated
to Yale college. Shortly after
this, settlers pushed eastward
from New York across Lake
Champlain and westward from
New Hampshire. This led to dis
pures between these two colo
MES as to their boundaries. Un-
der the leadership Of Ethan AL
len New York's claims were re-
sisted by q local military force,
which proudly called themselves
''the Green Mountain Boys" 1t
was these same men who played
such u brilliant part during the
Revolution.
In 1777 q formal Constitution
for the state was adopted and
Verinonters are proud Of the fact
that theirs was the first Of the
states to prohibit slavery bJ
constitutional provision. For q
number Of years Vermont re-
mained Us a separate republic,
but in 1871 1t was admitted to
the Union US the first addition to
the original thirteen states.
In size Vermont has 9,5G4
square miles, and its congress
sional delegation numbers four.
1t thus casts four votes for the
president.

prepared by the United States Depart

Hazards which sometimes accom-
pany the incubation of eggs are large
ly avOidable. Fertile eggs from vigOr-
Gus breeding stock are necessary In
order to obtain good matches.
Free range for the breeders is most
desirable for the production Of fertile
eggs with vigorous germs, but all eggs
be used for incubation. Eggs that are
abnormally small and poorly shaped or
those having thin or very poor shells
should be eliminated. Dirty eggs or
those badly sOiled should not be used.
If 1t is found necessary to set slightly
soiled eggs they may be cleaned by
rubbing lightly with damp cloth. care
being taken not to rub off any more
Of the natural bloom than is neces
sary.
II is never advisable to use for
Matching eggs that are more than two
weeks old. In freezing weather eggs
should be collected two or three times
day so as to prevent their being
chilled. Neither hen nor an incuba-
tor will hatch strong chicks from eggs
containing weak germs or from those
which have not received proper care.
lii preparing the nest for the sitting
hen, put from three to four inches
Of damp earth or a piece Of grass sod
In the bottom of the nest before the
nesting material is put in to provide
moisture. When the hen becomes
br0Ody, and before she is transferred
to the nest for sitting. she should be
busted with insect powder or sodium
fluOride. In doing this hold the hen
by the feet with the head down, work
ing the powder we'll into the feathers.
This should be repeated about the
eighteenth day Of incubation so as to
: be sure that there are no lice present
when the chicks are Matched.
The hen should be moved at night
from the regular laying nest into the
nest where she is to be set The lat
ter nest should be in some Out-of-the-
way place where the hen will not be
disturbed. In order to make sure that
the hen will continue to stay in the

WIRE REPLACING
ijlD-TIME FENCE
Stone Walls, Split Rails and
Hedges Rapidly Being Dis
carded by Farm Owners.
MOST IMPORTANT ELEMENTS
Essential That Ends and Corners Be
Erected Firm and Solid-Posts
Should Be Large Enough to
Give Needed Strength.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of AgrIculture.)
OF oil the changes wrought in the
farming industry during the last CEN
fury none is more noticeable than that
in fencing, say specialists Of the Uni
ted States Department of Agriculture.
All over the Eastern United States
there are hundreds of miles Of stone
wall fences which are monuments to
the patience and thOrOughness of
earlier generations. Overlapping this
territory. and extending west, are
found fences Of split rails, with their
familiar weeds and berry bushes in
the angles, while still farther west,
where there was neither wood nor
stone, are seen Usage orange and
other hedges. These are natural pro-
auctions Of the time.
The farmer usually finds today that
barbed-wire or wOven-wire fence will
best serve his ends for new construc-
ton, and at the same time cost least.
Barbed wire Is used on large stock
ranges where the loss of one or two
animals through wire cutting is not
serious, but for the farmer with fine
horses, or a selected herd of cattle,
large mesh woven-wire fences are
coming more into use.
Ends and Corners.
The manner in which the fence Is
erected has much to do with it's serv-
ice. The ends and corners are BY far
the most important elements Of a
fence. 1t Is essential that they remain
firm and solid in order to hold the
fence rigid. The first thing to consider
Is placing the corners. The posts used
should be large enough to give suffi-
cient strength; they should be set deep
enough to prevent heaving by the ac-
ton of frost; they should be braced
from each direction Of tension by a
stout rail about IL feet long.
Metal and concrete posts are on the
market, but great many farmers cling
to wooden ones. The line posts should
be approximately inches in diameter.
Various woods are used, including
Usage orange, locust, red cedar, null
berry and burr oak. They should be
thoroughly seasoned and the bark re-
moved, and to get the longest life
should be dipped In creosOte at tenn

LOSS FROM INFERIOR SEEDS
Farmer 10 Cautioned to Make Test In
Home Germinator in Advance
Of Planting.

American farmers suffer losses
every year through inferior seed, the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture finds. If seed Is foul with weeds
or II the seeds are dead. the loss can
not be made up once the crop is In
the ground. If a crop is to be planted
in April, discovery Of poor seed in
May does no good. The remedy is
to test seeds in home germlnatOr in
advance of planting.
Small samples of seed are counted
out and sowed In moist soil in some
shallow receptacle like kitchen
plate. The plate may be kept near
the stove or anywhere to maintain a
temperature conducive to germina-
ton. When the plants have had time
to sprOut, a count Of the results will
give a good indication of the value
Of the seed.

enough for the preservative to pene-
trate the wood. These posts are best
set in the spring after the frost is out
and when the ground Is soft. On level
ground they may be driven with a
maui, but in depressiOns should be an
chored down by 2 by cross pieces
spiked Oh the bottom of the post before
setting. The distance between posts
depends on the location Of the fence
and the numbers and kinds Of stock
to be turned, the average in field fences
being about 20 feet.
To construct wOven-wire fence
properly it Is necessary to have a
wOven-wire stretcher. a single
wire stretcher to be used in at
taching the fence to the end posts. a
pair Of wire cutters, barbed-wire
stretcher, splicing tool, and hammers
for stapling and fastening the wire.
Barbed and woven wire may be I'M
rolled by attaching the reel to the
back Of a wagon or by running bar
through the core and drawing 1t along
with horse.
Stretching the Wire.
After the wire Is unrOlled It should
be drawn up to the line of posts and
freed from adhering trash. The
stretchers are then attached and the
line wires drawn until they are SO taut
that they can just be pressed together
Some slack may be allowed for uneven
ground. In fastening the wire on the
posts the line wire should be kept as
nearly horizontal as possible and al
lowed to follow small Irregularities in
the ground. The staples should per

PRODUCTIVE FARM LAND

In a general sense. productive
farm land is land that Is used
to produce crops. to pasture
animals, or to furnish a supply
OF fuel. timber. maple sugar, or
other profitable forest products.
NOnproductive land Is that por-
ton Of farm which Is taken
up by the farm buildings, by
lanes and roads that are unnec-
essary, fence rows that are too
wide, open bitches, headlands,
swamps, rocks, ravines, slOughs,
and streams. or pasture land
that does not economically sup
port live stock. Farmers Bull

INCREASED EGG PRODUCTION
From Mash Composed Of Meat
Scrap and cornmeai.

The highest egg production in poul-
try-feeding tests conducted by the
United States Department Of Agricul-
'ture were obtained from a pen receiv-
Ing a mash composed Of four pounds
bran, four pounds middlings. 20
pounds meat scrap. and SO pounds
cOrnmeal.
This ration has been one Of the
best mashes. giving consistent high
production over a period Of several
years. and is not distinctly different
from the mash used in the wheatless
ration, which has also given very good
production.
