savors too much of commercialism
in the opinion of this paper. Foote
spent about $1,000, very modest
sum. Twice that amount or even
three times $1,000 in state cam
paign would not to the mind OF the
writer be excessive, but to spend
more in getting an Office than the Of
flee returns to the recipient is about
the point where something appears
warped and unreasonable. Some be-
lieve there should be no limit to the
amount spent in legitimate propa-
ganda and one interested in the print
ing and publishing business might
naturally be expected to benefit In
some degree from large expenditures
of money in politics. Nevertheless
we believe thoroughly that a limit
should be set in the matter. Hart
ness $4,000 was too much and Proc
tors $4,000 is too much.

The Primary Election.
(Morrisville Messehger)

The result of the primary election
is a matter of history.
1t is not surprise.
The Republican ticket will I'M
doubtedly be elected.
Facts developed prove that under
the primary, a poor man has no show.
Designed to help any and every
worthy man, who aspires to serve his
state, it is the worst frost of the
age.
1t is the rich mans law.
Under it's provisions any person
who desires office can get it, if he will
pay the price, of a publicity bureau
and the right kind of propaganda.
The poor man, who cannot employ
press agents, pay postage, and fol
printing to put his claims squarely
before all the people-every voter In
the state-over 1O0,0OO-had better
keep out He has no show.
Designed to give the people the op-
portunity to pick out the men they
desire to have serve them, it has
proved only an opportunity for choice
between a few men. For governor
this year, between only two men.
That was what Disguised the voters
and kept two9thirds of them away
from the polls.
Repeal the law and substitute the
caucus system, only under state direc
ton and control.

ESSEX COUNTY POLITICAL JOKE
Clare Powell dominates a Hand
Picked Official Slate, 20 to /.

The best political story in Vermont
this year comes from Essex county
and the star performer in that story
is Attorney Clare R. Powell, a native
of Barton and well known all through
northeastern Vermont.
It appears that the county ballots
in Essex county were printed In the
same manner as at former primary
elections, viz, with the candidates for
all parties in party columns but upon
the same ticket.
Mr.. Powell, a most practical joker
as well as an able attorney and keen
politician, discovered the form of the
ballot on election day. He saw a
number of his Island Pond friends
during the day and asked them not to
vote during the afternoon but to come
to his office at $50 o'clock. When
assembled Clare told the bunch that
he believed every county ballot cast
in the towns of Essex county that day
were illegal and that those present
could carry the election in the county
just exactly as they desired. Ihey
decided upon a slate for county OIL
GERS which exactly suited their fancy
Whereupon the delegation went to
the place of voting. Mr.. Powell call
ed for Republican ballot. Upon be-
ing handed a combined Republican
and Democratic ballot he remonstrat-
ed and wanted separate Republican
ticket as the law prescribed The law
was read, the officials in charge OF
the voting both convinced that the
ballot was not legal one. 1t was
suggested that the ballots might be
cut in two thereby leaving the Repub-
lican candidates and the Democratic
candidates on separate ballots, max
| ing them legal. It was now few
minutes of o'clock.
After Sitting ballots for a time Mr.
Powell and his friends began getting
legal ballots. They proceeded &c
write-in the slate of names upor
which they had decided, cross the
names and pass in their legal ballots
One late voter not included in Mr.
Powell's list happened in and cast 9
legal vote, scratching the names OF
nominees printed upon the ballot.
The result is that except in one d
two instances where candidates were
satisfactory, list of county officers
were nominated whose names did not
appear on the printed ballot at all
and who were not candidates for the
Offices in question. The vote being
70 to 1, the only legal votes cast IN
the whole of Essex county.
It is said the one vote was cast by
H. B. Amey, while Mr.. PowelPs
friends cast the 70 votes. This makes
the story and the joke all the more
appreciated when it is known that Mr.
Powell and Mr.. Amey are the two
leading attorneys in Essex county.
What may happen at the November
election is of course another story, as
some of the regular candidates may
file for. the regular ticket and some
officers of long standing would not
perhaps be turned down if stickers
had to be used. But the fact remains
that Mr.. Powell carried Essex eoun-
ty for hand-picked list of men, 70
to 1 in the recent primary election
and a joke which will not die in the
lifetime of it's originator was carried
through.

Rutland has one /of the very few
public camp sites for automobile par
ties in this state and it is just given
out that 1913 parties have already
made use of the site during the sum-
mer, the cars coming from 10 states.
This kind of municipal effort in be-
half of the public is decidedly worth
while. No such place is afforded
touring parties in this entire county
but there ought to be several such
places of welcome. Ideal spots
could be found along the shores of
our beautiful lakes and streams and
the expense of putting them in shape
for the comfort and convenience of
tourists would be small compared
with the return received in good will
and perhaps even by direct purchase
OF supplies of various descriptions.

News reports show that the federal
highway project just south of Bar
ton is to be built, bids having been
obtained and the job awarded to a
Vermont contractor who expects to do
some preliminary work this fall and
complete the three miles and more
another season. The completion of
this road and the improvement Of
a few short pieces of highway in
other places between Barton and
West Burke will change the trend of
through traffic to a considerable ex-
tent. Much of the traffic from st.
Johnsbury to Newport goes via Will
loughby lake and Charleston or via.
Sheffield heights and Glover. When
this new piece of road is completed
the best route will be via. West Burke
and Barton.

New Champion Jersey Cow for YER
mont.

The American Jersey Cattle club
has announced that the Jersey cow,
Pride'ss Oxford Mary, 389612, has
completed a years record in the reg
lister >of merit, producing in 365 days
1898 pounds of milk and $4,000
pounds of butter fat She started her
test at four years, five months of
age and Qualities for a silver medal
and medal of merit. By this record
Pride's Oxford Mary becomes the
class and state champion of Yer
| mont. 1t also places her as the
fourth highest fat producer and the
| third highest milk producer of the
Jersey breed in the Junior four-year-
old class.
This cow was bred and is owned by
C. j. Markham and son at Elm Valley
Farm, Pomfret, VT. She was fed,
MIXED and carefully tended through
out her year of great achievement by
the junior member of the firm, r. HI.
Markham. The record can be truly
said to have been made under aver
age farm conditions and should be a
source of encouragement to all small
breeders.
Pride's Oxford Mary was sired by
Financial Oxford's Noble 121064, a
PIOOuC1 VI VueCH00 dis IdTI1S.
This bull was wonderfully prepotent
as sire of high-producing cows be-
cause in addition to Pride's Oxford
Mary his other daughters have made
large records which space will not
permit of listing here. This herd is
a striking illustration of the ability
of good bull to boost an average
herd into public recognition by the
uniform excellence of his daughters.
The Markham herd was founded in
1904 by the purchase of a two-year-
old heifer for $27. Two other fe-
males were later purchased and from
that foundation the present herd has
been developed. The herd has always
been free from tuberculosis and has
been included in COW test association
work ever since that work was start
ed In the community. In the calen-
dar year of 1921 the herds average
in the White River Cow Testing asso-
citation was 9,977 pounds of milk and
1894 pounds of butter fat. During
the past two years several of the
cows have completed very creditable
records in the Register, of Merit, cul-
mlnating in the present state cham
pion.
Admirers of Jersey cattle, or any,
one interested in livestock breeding
Will lind it worth while to visit the
Markham herd in the old established
Jersey community of Pomfret.

The Monitor has interviewed Rep
resentative Nominee F. D. Thompson
of Barton with reference to the news
paper talk about his being a candi-
date for the speakership. He says
fatty he is not a candidate, will not
be candidate and has never author
lied the use of his name in connec-
ton with that position. This ought
to settle the matter so far as Thomp-
son is concerned and leaves north
eastern Vermont solid for Aaron II.
Grout of Newport for the position of
speaker. This is characteristic of
northeastern Vermont in politics as
well as in other matters. Orleans,
Caledonia and Essex counties usual
ly stand together as a unit which
makes it a power to conjure with in
state matters Cooperation always
counts.

VERMONT'S MAPLE CROP
State Produces 500 of Entire Maple
Crop Valued at $2,7S3,503.

The current issue of weather,
Crops and Market" publication is
sued weekly by the United States
Department of Agriculture contains
a statement concerning the produc-
ton of maple syrup and sugar for the
year 1922. Syrup is expressed in
terms of sugar. gallon of syrup be-
ing considered equivalent to eight
pounds of sugar. The total produc-
ton for the United States in round
numbers was 34,806,00O pounds. Of
this amount Vermont produced H.
674,OOO pounds or 1850, slightly
more than one-third of the entire pro-
entire production of the United
States.
Vermont produced approximately
3,152,000 pounds of sugar and 1,O65,-
900 gallons of syrup. The 13 states
of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont,
Massachusetts,, Connecticut, N
York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, West
Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan,
and Wisconsin, according to the CEN
sus of 1920, produced 98.7 per cent.
! of the maple sugar and syrup of the
country, and their totals are given as
those for the nation as a whole. In
| 1922 the United States produced
1921 900 pounds of sugar and 1885,
900 gallons of syrup. The Vermont
production, therefore, represented
1912 per cent. of the maple sugar and
28.9 per cent. of the syrup produced.
! There were 5,559,O00 trees tapped in
/ Vermont in 1922 or $50 per cent. of
all the trees tapped in the United
States. Vermont tapped 449,000 more
trees in 1922 than in 1921, and in
creased it's production of maple sug
ar and syrup 215,O00 pounds and $780,
900 gallons respectively. The aver
age Vermont yield per tree was 2.10
! pounds compared with Las pounds
| last year. The average price paid
April Is, 1922, was 23.1 cents per
pound for sugar and $1.93 per gallon
| for syrup. At these prices Vermont
produced $728,112 worth of sugar
and syrup valued at $2,055, 450, or a
total of S2,783, SOB for maple sugar
and syrup produced.
Vermont and New York produced
the bulk of the maple products. New
York exceeded Vermont in gallons of
syrup produced by 10000 but in total
maple products Vermont led New
York in the equivalent of 100000
pounds. The average prices of sug-
ar and syrup as Of April 18th are
given for the past seven years.
