At the meeting of the Vermont state
board OF control at Montpelier yester-

priation Of $500 TO compile data to

merce. II is understood that the prin-
cipsl reason for declining TO grant the

iority Of the board did not see the
need of compiling data as an emer-
gency one.

that he had nothing TO say on the mat
ter except that he did not see that
Vermont could do much in view IT the

intend to fix it. He asked to borrow
their harrow and when they said that
