OFFICIALLY DECLARED TIE
Oxford Cambridge VS.. Princeton Cornell
Athletic Meet.

Traverse Island, n. Y, July 20. The
international track meet between the
Oxford Cambridge teams of England
and the Princeton Cornell teams was
officially declared tie last night after
a previous official decision declaring
tile Britons the winners had been re-
versed.
Each team scored FIVE first places.
The British team took six second
places in the Americans five, there be-
ing a tie for second place in the high
jump, making the IL second places in
10 events.
At conference of officials and team
captains after the meet it was decided
that England was the winner in ac-
cordance with the rules that applied
last week at the Briton's meet wit
the Yale Harvard combination.
Later. however, another conference
was held and it was brought out that
when arrangements for yesterdays con-
tests were being made by cable it was
agreed that the rules governing the
Oxford Princeton meet at the Queens
club, England, last year should govern
yesterdays events. Under these rules
second places did not count in the finals
score.
After the meet the two teams and
the officials motored to Port Chester,
where they were given dinner at the
Blind Brook club.

Putting Tin Pants on Ceres.

Can il be that the Mortified News is
sane when il recommends retrenchment
in state expenses. The News in the
past has been one of the arch sup.
porters of the profigate waste OF the
public money. Now the thing has
come to such proportions that the
News itself is disguised and calls for
halt. II may take few more jolts
to bring the people to their senses and
get down to old fashioned New Eng
land economy in the spending Of the
public Burlington Clipper.
Dear Clipper, you should keep the
truth with your, and state facts. The
story is this way: When the editor
OF the News was sergeant at arms he
asked Governor Fletcher and the state
auditor If the state wanted the beau
tiful structure called the State House

be run like a livery stable. The an
swer was, I'VE have been trying to
get something done and they agreed
that about then was the time. The
Clipper yowled about making the OK.

IL hollered for help when the interior
was painted and made at least 10 CON
form TO health, and it squealed like a
stuck pig when the lighting system
was made not only attractive but to
comply with reasonable fire regula.
tions. And the Clipper simply bel
lowed when the rear of the State
House was made TO look at least as
good as country school All that
took money, we'll agree. but if it had
received attention when il should have
got it, perhaps this expense would not
been necessary. Now this is the story,
and the way the editor Of the News
is supporter of the prohigate waste
Of public money.

Right Feeding of Cows.

There is difference in being stingy
and economical when it comes to feed
ing cows, says John A. Hitchcock, ex-
tension specialist in daring of the
University of Vermont and State
Agricultural college. Ii is possible to
lose money by feeding, but for every
man that is losing money that way
there are hundreds who are losing it
by trying to carry their cows through
the winter on hay and little else. Poor
cfre cuts out the possibility of profit
right at the start. Good hay and
silage supplemented by grain fed &C.
cording to production will return a
good profits if fed TO good cows. This
is the only way that a dairy farmer
can, or ever will be able TO find him
self at the end of the year with bal
ance on the right side of the book.

Second Annual Field and Program
Meeting at Waitsfeld,
Aug. 4.

Arrangements have just been COM

ISOLATION at o'clock and an open meet
ing at 2 o'clock which will be addressed
by three specialists from the depart
ment Of agriculture at Washin gton.
DR.. William Stuart, who is well

a great deal of work in potato breed
ing and the study of varieties, will
speak on the subject of the best strains

edge of these diseases and Wells A.
Sherman will bring TO us the results of
his experience and observations with
respect to the problems of marketing.
This program furnishes an opportu-
nifty for acquiring knowledge and max
ing progress which no certified seed
grower can afford to miss.
The question of the use of the dust
sprayers for potatoes and the efficiency
Of this spray has come prominently to
the front during the past year or two,
and arrangements have been made TO
have field demonstration of Niagara
power dust sprayer. This demonstra.
tion will be of immense interest TO all
our growers.
The Waitsfeld local potato associa-
ton is producing some good seed in
this community; they have been active
in advertising their product and are
making excellent progress.
There are important problems to be |
considered by the growers with refer |
ence to cultural questions, disease con
troll and marketing and there will no !
doubt be a widely representative gath
ering from various sections of the
state to consider these matters, and
benefit by the exchange of ideas.
Last year at our first meeting about |
rs growers were present This year the |
number may jump TO one hundred. !
Those who expect to be present are /
asked to advise by postal card, Earl /
Jones of Waitsfeld, secretary of the To-
cal association, in order TO facilitate
the arrangements for serving lunch.
