VERM0NTS FERTILITY.
COMPARED WITH OTTER PROJECT
I'VE STATES EASr AND WEST.
How tho state Stands with Reference 10
the Production OF stock of Various
Rinus--Vermont as a wool Produo.
Ing state,

Written for the Free Press by NJ o. Howcl
More than 20 years ago the writer made
what was designed to be pretty thorough
examination OF the statistics of agricul.
tural production in Vermont in compari-
son with other eastern States and with
the most fertile States Of the west. The
result of the comparison was surprisingly
favorable to Vermont. The article con-
tanning these statistics and comparisons
was published at the time in the New
York Tribune, and copied into nearly alt
the papers Of this State. Another SINH
lar article, based mainly on the census of
1870 may be found in the report Of the
Vermont board of agriculture for 1876,
pages 533-5lS. The facts aud figures there
given make wonderfully favorable show
ing for this State in everything except the
ratio of increase in population in which
Vermont was then near the foot. For the
last census decade. or for the period be
tween 1870 and 1880, Vermont was in this
respect at the very foot of all the States,
making an increase in population OF only
one half of one per cent. No one not IA
mlliar with the facts would believe that
the state which IS proved beyond ques-
ton by statistics of production, for the
last 30 years to be one OF the best aGTiCul-
tural States in the Union, and which is on
all accounts 50 Desirable part Of the
country for rural homes, IL the State
which ranks Lowest OF I'll in the ratio of
increase in population.
Had Vermont made gain equal 20 the
average gain in the United States, the in
crease OF its population ia the 10 years
from 1870 to 1850 would have been nearly
100000. or A states and Territories, Only
three gained less than Is . per cent. New
Hampshire gained per cent, Maine 80
per cent, ana \ crmont u ) per cent Had
the rank Of the States and Territories in
increase OF population, 900 would have
been added to our numbers during tha
last census decade.
The greatest present want Of this State
is people 10 occupy it and develop It's re
sources. There is no good reason that
