students returned to their homes on Friday as
school did not keep. Friday evening the stu

house, where they were treated to some new SUI

hour was profitably spent and enlivened by such

A Model Farmer.

Vermont Is noted for its scenery. Not only
does the native son Of Vermont love to return
from his wanderiugs and look with delight again
upon Its hills and mountains, but they who from
city or more southern cline visit us for health
or pleasure find continual glad surprise In the
variety of scenery presented When we follow
the roads that pass our hills it is sad to see
evidences Of ruined lives and disappointed hopes
In the abandoned farms, broken-backed barns,
and windowless houses which show so plainly
that men were not successful in their efforts to
make homes upon the highlands. In contrast to
this, our faith is strengthened in the excellence
and permanency Of our state when we see upon
our hills the fertile fields, model buildings, and
many evidences OF thrift and prosperity such ~
has lately been our good fortune to notice in the
good town Of Cabot We lately visited Mr.. A. NJ.
Foster, whose reputation as a skilful farmer, but
whose speciality Is sugar-making, is well known.
He occupies one Of the upland farms where the
sugar naples find congenial soil. He taps about
two thousand trees; his buckets tubs and reser-
vors are painted red and are neatly kept; the
roads through his woodland are smooth enough
for pleasure driving; his commodious sugar-house
has set in 1t, in good brick arches two large
eyaporators, into which the clean-strained sap IL
conducted by tin pipes from the elevated holders
outside. The brisk FIRE below soon sends off its
surplus moisture in clouds OF steam, and the de.
licious syrup, clear as crystal is drawn from the
evaporators into pals and stored In the syrup
room, an apartment neatly finished off in the
side OF the building. Some OF his customers like
the liquid maple honey; for others the syrup is
sugared off so that 1t is quite dry and there Is no
leakage or drainage in sending pals or tubs Of 1t
to distant customers.
But sugar-making only occupies about one
month in the year. During the eleven months
Mr.. Foster Is a farmer, and in this craft he evil
IDENTIFY deserves as great notoriety as in sugar
making. We have seen neat village farms where
the carpenters skill had made model homes iSf
