The New State Asylum.

The trustees Of the Vermont State
asylum for the insane held a meeting
at Waterbury Tuesday to decide upon
plan for the buildings to be erected
on the land recently purchased by
them for that purpose. There were
present, Gov. Dillingham;, Lieut.-Gov.
Woodbury., DR.. w. II. Giddings of
Bakersfield, DIR. D. d. Grout of Stowe
and Hon. S. D. Hobson of East Brigh-
ton, composing the board of trustees ;
DR.. Joseph Draper, superintendent of
the Brattleboro insane asylum; and
Mr.. G. D. Rand, of the Boston firm
of Rand & Taylor, the architects who
drew the plans; and Mr. Christopher
Clark, of Northampton, Mass, the
inventor Of a seemingly practical fire
escape, was also present and showed a
model of his invention. The trustees
met in Gov. Dillingham's office where
the plans designed by Mr.. Rand were
shown, discussed, and finally adopted.
Mr.. Rand has had considerable expe-
rience in work of this character, among
his successful efforts being several of
the buildings connected with the Brat
tlebOro asylum. He was highly rec
commended by DR.. Draper and other
eminent gentlemen who have come in
direct contact with his work, and the
trustees evidently made no mistake in
securing his services. The plan sub
mitted by him shows set of buildings
of great architectural beauty. They
will have a frontage of 900 feet, AMI
will be built of brick with stone trim
mings. There will be a central group
of administration buildings, the front
containing the superintendent office,
library, stewards and board rooms,
dining room for officers of the institu-
ton, reception and consultation rooms,
while to the rear is the chapel, and
still further back is the kitchen. This
building will be three stories high.
From the center there will extend on
either side One-story corridor, with
general hospital for curative cases,
one ward being for men and the other
for women. The hospital will be $50
feet long, &c feet wide, and three
stories high with accommodations for
70 patients. Each floor has it's own
dining room and everything complete,
and on each floor there is a dormitory
for six beds, besides thirteen single
rooms. Beyond the hospital ward on
each wing there will be three two
story circular wards for the chronic
insane. These will be connected with
each other and with the main building
and with an associated dining room by
one-story corridors. Each ward con-
sists of a day-room on the first floor
and dormitory for % beds on the
second floor with the usual accommO-
dations of attendants rooms and bath
rooms. There will also be a ward at
each wing for the criminal insane with
accommodations in each for about 80
patients. In the rear of all will be
the boiler and heating apparatus.

wheat for export, and some Of the

not only for money but for food
for themselves and their stock; but it
is not improbable that the situation
has beer exaggerated in order to make

EAT LESS Pork AND MORE FRUIT.
Far too large proportion OF
farmers diet in summer is salt pork.
Those who work hard out of doors can
stand such dieting without injury, but
it is hard on women and children kept
indoors. In the country there should,
of course, be plenty OF fruit and veg
etables st any time during summer
and fall. With these to aid digestion
salt pork becomes less injurious. But
with the best of vegetables and fruits
there should be fresh meat and salt.
to secure this keep poultry. If poul-
try meat is not hearty enough for men
who work in the harvest field, give
them eggs and oat meal or graham
gems, all richer in strengthening
nutriment than fat pork, which is
mostly carbonaceous matter.-Ameri-
