VERMONT.

That sturdy little state Is maintaining her
high position among her sister states in ev-
cry good thing that tends to the elevation of
our race, and in agriculture it seems to be
taking leading position, as appears from the
following extract of an address by Hon.
John Gregory at Newfane, VT:
vermont now takes the lead in agricultu-
raj products, in many of the most important
articles of consumption and export. If we
take into consideration her size and popula-
ton, she enumerates the most and best
sheep-producers, the most pounds of wool,
tons of hay, pounds of maple sugar, bushels
of potatoes, the greatest value of the products
of the dairy, and of the orchard. In ratio of
population, Vermont beats all her sister New
England States in raising wheat and oats,
the greatest number of horses, neat cattle
and swine, and is next to the head in produce
ing corn, rye, buckwheat and poultry. "-IosOa

LUCK AND LABOR.

Last week two boys left their country
homes to seek their fortunes in the city,
II shall see what luck will do for me-"
said one.
II shall see what labor will do for me-"
cried the other.
Which is the better to depend upon, luck
or laborp Let us see.
Luck is always waiting for something to
turn up.
Labor will turn up something.
Luck lies abed wishing.
Labor jumps at six o'clock, and with busy
pen or ringing hammer lays the foundation
of II competence.
Luck whines.
Labor whistles.
Luck relies on chance.
Labor relies on character.
Luck slides down to Incidence.
Labor strides upward to independence.
Which is likely to do most for you, boysp
