ceived announcement from the agricuI-
tural extension service of the University
Of Vermont outlining a plan for state
wide soil improvement. the circular

are others who are on land which might
be made equally productive.
According to the plan. DIR. Ernest

In cooperation with the county ex-

fields will be established in those coun-
ties where interest and conditions war

PICKING WIFE FROM
116 APPLICANTS
Young POwnaI Farmer Paying Persona
Visit to Most Promising Matri-
TnOnial Prospects,

MONTPELIER, April 5.-On his
strange matrimonial quest l.. .. Hatcl
Of Pownal, a modern young Lochinyar
was IN Montpelier over the weekend.
Mr.. Hatch is the young gentleman who
resorted to newspaper advertising in his
efforts to fine a life mate. Since his story
was published the first of last month ht
has received 116 replies. He is now
visiting those whose letters appealed tC
him the most and il to pick the favored
one out OF that number. But Montpelie.
young ladies need not despair that they
are too late to be considered for that is
not the case. Mr.. Hatch has not as yet
made up his mind and will reply to any
lonely young lady who may write to him
and If her letter seems sincere he will
visit her and consider her for the queens
throne. All that he asks in a wife is
that she will make a decent housekeeper
and keep his home clean. One with a
little property, preferably a farm, would
be most acceptable. He was in Mont
peller to see a 16-year-old girl who an
swered his advertisement
He told the complete story to a re-
porter, who visited him at her home last
night. He answered all questions will
ingly and even volunteered information
lie stated that he was sery grateful to
the newspapers for what they had done
for him so far. He was born 30 years
ago accounts giving his age as "a are
wrong, he states) in the state of New
Hampshire, Just what town he does not
remember because he left it when a
youth. He has resided for the last II
years in pownal. where he and FRIEND
own $500 farm in partnership Tie
show their success he states that last
year both cleared over $4,000 clear profit
apiece. He says they have 20-odd cows
with a good market for milk in North
Adams. Mass have a dozen or Il sheep,
and large number of poultry.
So IL can be seen that he and his part
ner are getting along fast. but as soon as
| they lind another farm one is going to sell
to the other and buy that one so that they
| both may have farms that they own for
| themselves. He showed the reporter a
| picture of the farm last night
But in the midst of his agricultural
| success Hatch began to feel the twangs
OF lonely heart and thought that he
| would be doing well to obey the dictates
! of Cupid and take unto himself a wife
| The young ladies of mis- acquaintance
however, were limited and did not appea
| very much to him. He reasoned that h,
| might do better by advertising, SO OF
! March / he walked into the Office of tho
| North Adams Transcript and told hi,
| story. tie got a column and Il half anC
had his picture printed
Immediately the replies began to come
! iii. There were 116 of them in all ii,
| replied to every one. but after a Shor
| correspondence he decided that the mos
Of them would not do. So he visited /
counting the Montpelier girl and has tive
more to visit. lie also is considering
! visiting a few more whose addresses he

OF DEPARTMENTS
Gradual Changes to BE Made to Effect
Maximum of Efficiency Govern
ment Officials Say.

WASHINGTON. April 5.-Gradual re
JrganIZatIon OF government departments
along the lines OF etfecting maximum
of efficiency was said today in official
circles to be the program of the admin
istration, already begun. which is to re-
suit in changes wherever the infusion
of new blood Is Judged necessary.
Operation of the civil service rules
viii not be allowed to hinder efforts to
bring the administration of the govern
ment to the highest peak of service. ac-
eording to advisers close to President
Harding, who believe the President is
empowered to make whatever changes
in official personnel may be deemed eX-
pedient in the interest of the country
at large although. if necessary, enabling
legislation may be obtained from CON
gress.
The president was represented as
holding the view that under the constI
tuition the chief executive is charged
with the duty of exercising the best
judgment in the administration of the
Office intrusted to him.
Many changes have already taken
place. particularly iii the treasury de
partment, it was said. where complete
reorganiZat ion of the bureau of engrav
ing and printing and the customs sery-
ice has already been effected and where
other important shift are to be expected
soon. Similarly in the shipping board
and other agencies of the government,
where different ideas of office admins
ration is believed advisable. replacement
f executive heads is taking place.
In some quarters the view was adj
vanced that reorganization would pro-
coed regardless of party affiliations until
installation of new personnel would
wipe away all old methods now con
sidered faulty to make way for the
most modern procedure.
REORGANIZATION Is planned, it was said
Yesterday, i'm the internal revenue bu-
reau and will involve. it was declared.
about dozen important places. As
soon as the internal revenue bureau re-
organization is finished the next bureau
to be given attention is expected to be
that of prohibited enforcement Just
how many "key positions - are involved
m this bureau are not known. but it is
understood they are considerable.

Prehistoric mound builders or aborig-
