CITY VERSUS COUNTRY.

The state of Vermont, in short, IS COW
cred with abandoned spots where once
an adequate and independent subsistence
was dug from the soil and where now
the victim Of the competitive crush in
urban industry, whose woes are exciting
such general attehtion, could do the
same. Much of this land, to be sure, is
practically worthless for the growth of
crops, but little of il can ne said to be of
no use for grazing, for dairy purposes,
and the produGtlt of the blooded stock
that once, particularly of horses, made
the state famous. For all these products
there is an abundant and profitable mar
ket right at the door. And the land is
as cheap, and cheaper in cases, than
lands in the far West. Why should it
lie idle with growing "army of unem-
ployed" crowding down wages and re-
ducing labor practically to a state of
slavery in the great centers of popula-
ton? Is it possible that the gewgaws
and fopperies of dependent and. pre-
carious urban and factory existence have
become so much more attractive to the
average American citizen than the sturdy
individual independence obtainable to
greater degree upon these farms than
anywhere else Our labor unions would
better address themselves to farm colon
ization schemes,-Springfeld Republi-
can.
