UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT.

The University of Vermont claims
the distinction of having as one OF
its alumni, the oldest college gradu-
ate in America, Reverend George
Gaby Rice of Council Bluffs, Iowa,
who graduated from Vermont in the
class of 1845. Mr. Rice was born at
Enosburg Falls, VT, Sept. %, 1919,
and if he lives but few months
more will be 103 years old. At the
present time Mr. Rice while confined
to a wheel chair, is in the best of
health, sleeps we'll, and eats three
hearty meals day. He is living at
the home of his daughter, Mrs o W
Otis, BOG East Pierce Street, Council
Bluffs, Iowa.
Some of the passages from Mr.
Rice's own journal written more than
rs years ago, and long since yellow
ed by age, are Interesting. For in
stance he SAYS, II was born in Enos-
burg Falls, Vermont, Sept. %, A. d.
1919, was the seventh child in FAM
ily OF eleven children and the Sec
ond son. My father was farmer in
very moderate circumstances, having
commenced life in Enosburg when it
was almost an unbroken wilderness.
Living two miles from church, the
weather was seldom an excuse for
absence either in summer or winter,
and | was eight or nine years old
when our church was first warmed
by a fire."
In September 1889, when almost
20 years old he was admitted to the
University of Vermont, but owing to
lack of funds had to leave college in
his Junior year, and teach school for
two years, one in Virginia and the
second at the Enosburg Academy.
He returned to college and gradual
ed in June 1845. Since then all Of
his life has been spent in the West
with the exception of the time spent
in a course at the Union Theological
Seminary at New York.

NEW HAMPSHIRE FARM BUREAU
FEDERATION NEWS.

By request of committee appoint
ed at the meeting of farmers inter-
ested in the proposed Manchester
meat inspection ordinance, attorney
general Oscar L Young has written
letter to the State Farm Bureau
office in which he says in part:
Such ordinances are, of course,
purely local. The provision requir-
ing that all beef, pork, veal, mutton,
and sold or offered for sale shall be
examined before being offered for
sale can undoubtedly be enforced,
but when the same provision is ex-
tended to inspection before slaughter,
it then becomes operative against
those living outside Manchester who
desire to offer their product for sale
within that city, and imposes upon
such the burden of having the
animal inspected in the locality
where it is to be slaughtered 1t
seems to me that this would result
in a material interference with the
law of the state, and / very serious
ly doubt whether municipality can
impose such a requirement the result
Of which is to compel the farmer or
small producer to incur the pro-
hibitive expense Of the services OF
an inspector or give up Manchester
as market"
Mr. Putnam of the State Farm
Bureau Office is in receipt of letter
from Congressman Wason, who is a
member of the Joint Conference
Committee to consider the action OF
the House of Representatives in cut
ting 100000 from the item for Ex-
tension work in the Department Of
Agriculture appropriation, in which
he says the committee have agreed
to an increase of the House appro-
priation by S300,000.
Mr. Wason also informs Mr. Putnam
that the committee has agreed to an
appropriation of s350,000 to be used
in eradication of the common bar
berry bush in the northern wheat
growing states. The American Farm
Bureau assisted by the several State
Farm Bureaus has been active in
urging these appropriations for Ex-
tension work is of especial interest
to New Hampshire farmers as it will
make it possible for the Extension
service under the direction of Di-
rector ] C Kendall to render added
service to our farmers. The State
Farm Bureau office has been active
in this connection.

This requires cooperation among thu

This requires cooperation among the
landowners.
1t is with the third class-the
scattered areas of seeped or swampy
land-that the individual farmer of
Vermont is most concerned. The
draining of such areas will do away
with many an 'eye sore" and will
enable landowners to Square up
his fields so that farm machinery can
be used to the best advantage.
The plan of drainage to adopt is
determined by the natural features
of the land. Where the surface is
fat a drain-either open or tile-is
located through or along the lower
side and smaller drains, leading in
to this, are laid on one or both sides
at uniform distances apart. Where
the land is rolling there are marked
depressions or surface runs, it is
best to follow them as the water
naturally collects in such places.
When field requires drainage the
source of the water should first of
all be ascertained. If from rainfall
alone, a system such as described
above is all that is necessary But

sometimes the water comes from
springs or flows from higher lands;
In such cases the water should
be intercepted and carried to an out,
let by the most practical route, and
not permitted to flow over or through
low-lying lands.
Muck and peat lands should first be
drained with system OF open bitches,
before tile drains are installed. Such
soils settle or subside considerably
after drainage: this shrinkage tends
to destroy the grade or slope in
tile line. After such soils have been
drained for year or so, they become
compact enough to permit the install
lation of tile drains.
