Silas c. Carpenter of Rich
ford Said to Be Sizing
Up Governorship.
INSTEAD OF SEEKING
TREASURY JOB
In Some Quarters There Is
Considerable Support
For Him.

A new star has appeared on the hor
rizon of politics from recent remarks
heard about the State House and, y
fact, reports along that line were heare
last week in the eastern side Of tht
state, namely, that Silas g. Carpenter
| Of Richford, who has been so often
mentioned of late as candidate foI
state treasurer, is in reality looking
over the field to see how the governor
ship stands. 1t is being urged N
business circles that with the financial
conditions az they are now and are
likely to be for few years there
should be at the head of the state
government man who understands
business affairs and that Senator Car
penter is the best fitted OF any Of those
who have been mentioned for that Of
fee. There seems to be quite BIT Of
agitation in some quarters over the
new name.
There is also some feeling that j.
Rolfe Searles Of st. Johnsbury, recent
ly elected potentate Of Mt. Sinai tenn
Die, Mobiles OF the Mystic Shrine. will
not be a candidate for attorney gen
eral against Frank c. Archibald.
A recent trip through Vermont
shows but little interest being taken
in politics, there being a feeling that
those who. have been making cam
paigns in their quiet ways have en-
tered the game too early and there
seems to be feeling that il is best
to wait and see ii some new names will
not appear for the several state offices.
A year ago Neil Clawson stated he
would not be a candidate for state
auditor but OF late there seems to be
quite bit OF feeling that he might be
induced to seek the Office. Mr.. Clawson
has a good position now and in the
last campaign intimated the reduction
in compensation did not appeal to him.
That Charles Staples Of Brattleborc
who was mentioned recently to succeed
w. II. Scott as state treasurer, j. not
in the field seems to be the sentiment
recently heard from the southern por-
tion of the state.
Aside from a few dissatisfied auto
mobile owners. the general opinion il
hat Harry A. Black will have no oppo-
sition for secretary Of state. But every
person in public Office, who does his
duty, Is sure to meet some disgrurtled

CHRISTMAS SHOPPING

During the season Of Christmas
shopping, great care should be
taken to avoid colds that are
likely to result in grip and pneu-
monia. The excitement Of the
time, the sudden change from the
close and sufocating air Of the
big stores to the street, are all
dangerous.
The value Of Father Johns
Medicine in treating and prevent
ing colds, grip and pneumonia,
has been proven by over 60 years
success. It is pure and whole

flesh and strength to fight of
colds and grip. Its gentle laxa-
tive effect drives out impurities.

Why not think of your osUn health?

The Federal Bureau of Education
includes in its rules to promote health
among the Nations school children,
the warning that children should not
drink coffee or tea.
The reason is well known. Coffee
and tea contain drugs which stimulate
and often over-excite the nerves, and
SO upset health.
The harm is by no means confined
to children, as any doctor can tell you.

it is valuable always If harm to

NO CUT IN PAIGE PRICES
President Jewett Says Reduction Last
Fall Anticipated Recent Drop In
Production Costs

Regarding the price situation in the
automobile industry, Harry M. Jewett,
president of the Paige Detroit Motor
Car company, has issued the following
official statement:
Last fall-September %, to be exact
we announced a reduction in price on
all Paige models. These reductions
were not warranted at the time&as
we frankly stated in our announce
ment. They were made in anticipation
of a drop in the cost of production
which we believed 10 be inevitable.
THAT drop actually materialized
this spring. but having been antici-
pated by our recent price cuts, there
can be no further reduction in the
price of current Paige models, and
there will be none. In view of the
facts stated, any further reduction
would not only be unwarranted, but
could not be made without sacrifice Of
quality"

FORD PRODUCTION
1900 CARS A DAY
Present Production Greater
Than for the Same Period
Last Year

Ford is building at full speed. And
according to an official statement from
the factory at Detroit the demand for
Ford cars and trucks still exceeds the
output, despite the fact that new high
level of production has been reached
By May the figures representing daily
productions were in the neighborhood of
1900 a day, so the May schedule was set
at 101, 125 cars and trucks, not including
the output of the Ford Canadian plant or
any of the foreign assembling plants.
The output mounted daily; May u
brought forth 1892 the greatest number
that have been produced in one day SO
far this year Since the month has 25
working days, present indications point
to a new high record.
A comparison of Ford production fig
ures for 1920 and 1921 discloses the fact
that for April 1921, the output was great
er by 1854 than for the corresponding
month of a year ago. The output for
May, 1921, will probably overshadow May,
1920, by between 1900 and 10000 cars and
trucks.
Approximately 4s 900 men are at work in
the Detroit plant of the Ford Motor COM
pany. The factory is operating on full
time, six days a week and three shifts a
day.

 About 500 bales of cotton have been shipped from Oneonta in the past two weeks and this has put close to $50,000 dollars into circulation, most of 1t going to farmers.
 Some new cotton is coming in, and while the crop Is short, the farmers and merchants had anticipated it.. and with the advance in price, un- expected money is being put into cir culation.
 About 500 bales of cotton has ton is still here in the warehouse, which belongs almost entirely to farmers.
