Arc You In It?
The Daily Times carries considerably
more advertising than any other
daily in Washington county. It gets
higher rates for it, too, because The
Times has the largest circulation. Is
your advertisement in The Times?

The Last Day of
JULY
The golden Jubilee of the Catholic dio-
, cese of Burlington appears to have been
very brilliant affair, true to its name.
A Iiutlnnd man has perfected a fuel
which, on the first tost, showed a decider
superiority over anthracite coal in the
amount consumed, the same proportion o
each being used. The new fuel burned
eight hours and fortv minutes, while the
anthracite burned four hours and fifty
minutes. The Ilutland man is to be con
gratuteted in getting around the coal
trust.
The "suicide of the wealthiest fanner
in Caluis" leads the Manchester, X. II.
Union to do, a little moralizing on how tho
poor condition of crops atiects the "poorest
farmer" in Calais," and it comes to the
conclusion that the poor farmer, accus
touted to adversity, takes the situation
philosophically simply because be has to,
The Union runs on as follows and its de
ductions are quite Interesting, "It is like
ly that the crop situation is about the same
iifall sections of Calais, and reading of
i the troubles of the town's wealthiest farm
er, inspires wonder as to the outlook of its
poorest farmer. It is likely, however, that
he will keep plugging along as usual, even
if he does lose his crops, and will not wor
ry nearly as much as his more successful
townsman did. Looking upon losses phil
osophically appears to be easier for the
poor than for the rich; peihaps because
they do not lose so much ; yet the propor
tiou of their losses is as great. Then
again there is something in getting used
to things and conditions even to ad
versity."
The Times notes with pleasure that
decision has been reached to send a rifle
team of Vermont militiamen to Seagirt,
X. Y., to participate in the Xatloral Kifle
competition. Whether or not the Ver
mont team wins will be a small matter.
compared with the benefits of the compe
tition, although, of course, it would be
gratifying if the Vermont boys were able
to bring back a trophy for excellence in
marksmanship, lint putting that out of
the reckoning, the advantages with rifle
men from other National Guards would be
beyond question. More recently the Ver
mont militia has been giving considerable
attention to rifle competition, and the re
sults are noteworthy, la Company E of
this city the standard of excellence in that
line is hih, in fact, as high as that of any
company In the regiment. To be able to
shoot straight is one of the prime requis
ites of a soldier. Without that ability
troops might as well enter engagements
unequipped with rifles for the pieces
would be useless. As The St. Albans
Messenger says: "Today the militiaman
makes a serious business of soldiering and
the country may perhaps reap the beuefit
of It all In an hour least expected. At all
events under modern conditions of warfare,
a soldier is not worth the room he occu.

weather vane that is nearly one hundred
years old. 1 his weather vane was put on
the Grange county grammar -school nearlv

was dedicated in JS00 and is in cood con

this same relio is to he placed on the new
school building at Randolph Center. The
ornamental staff of the weather vane was
hand-forged and at that time must have
been an excellent piece of work.
