VERMONT'S INDUSTRIAL PROG
RESS.

Hon. Victor l. Speare of the State
board of agriculture has compiled infor-
nation gath, red by HIM relative to the
increase of the industries of Vermont
during 1892. His findings are, in sub
stance. as follows:
Veimont's record as here presented
is complied entirely flom reports from
the town clerks OF the several towns. OF
the total number, 234 towns are here re-
ported. OF the towns failing to report,
all except one were small towns from
which there was likely to be little or
nothing to report. Aud though II COM
plete report would, doubtless, have in-
creased some of the figures found, they
may be considered, | think, fairly com
plete and accurate.
Thanks are due the town clerks who
have so cheerfully assisted, and | wish
to say that nearly all the reports receiy-
ed gave good evidence of care in their
preparation.
The total number of farms sold in
1892 is 1914. OF this number, 1872
were previously unoccupied. As com
pared with 1891, there has been an in
crease of $50 farm sales. The following
table shows the number of sales In
each county, ard for the purpose OF
comparison, the sales in 1891 are also
given:

Persons

AS a whole, it appears that for 1892
more farms were sold, more enterprises
undertaken, and more capital invested
in them than during the year previous.
This certainly indicates healthy con-
dition of both our agricultural and man
ufacturng interests and goes TO show
that those who have foreseen an improved
condition of our industrial affairs have
been correct in their judgment. Capital
is seeking investment in local enter
prises. Agriculture is moving forward
slowly but surely, ard improved, certain
and economical methods are taking the
place of guesswOrk and wasteful and
wOrnOut practices.
SO Tar as my acquaintance goes, there
is hopeful feeling prevailing in the
State, and there seems to be good rea-
son to believe that the upward course
is but fairly begun and that there lies
before us an era of prosperity, the ex-
tent of which is to be measured largely
by the effort of each individual citizen.

1t will be noted that sales have in
creased in nine counties, diminished III
four and remained the same IN one.
The sales of unOccupied farms have
been as follows in the several counties

ma, % Essex, 4 LamOille; 8; Orange,
30; Orleans, Il; Rutland, 8; Washing
ton, IS; Windham, IL Windsor, %. The

Orange, 81; Orleans, y; Rutland, Is;
Washington, 20; Windham, "a: Windsor,
SO. Chittenden, Grand Isle and Frank
lin counties report no unoccupied farms.
Many of the farms reported as without
/ tenants are so from the fact that a ten
ant has recently moved away and no
one has been found to fill the place.
Quite IA number of farms are tenantless
because of the settlement of an estate.
OF 200 farms of which descriptions have
been recently received, 10 have been
unoccupied Il year or less. This goes to
show that there are likely to be cerl i /
times when farms will be temporarily
without tenants and yet these farms may
not properly belong to what is generally
known as the class of unOccupied farms.
Our inquiries in connection with this
class of property have not been extend
ed TO tracts of land where farm build
ings have once been. but which passed
out of the list of farming lands years
ago and are now returning to their
original and proper use, the growing of
forest trees. 1t is believed that the
figures here given of the number of UNI
occupied farms at the present time,
which are suitable for farming purposes
very nearly represent what there are in
the State, and would not seem to be suf
ticient to occasion any considerable anX
iety or to give rise to the fear that the
farming land of the State is to be aband
ned.

having been made, OF which the cos

Industries reported are giving employ
ment to 100 persons. As compared
with the report Tor 1891, 1t appears tina
$72, 800 more capital has been invested
also that the additional help employed Il
100 persons, against 2l97 persons fol

MIssR's TREASURE STOLEN.
Indiana Farmer Buries $4,000 i'm his
Cellar and Loses 1T.

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 24.-David Stout,
an old man living west of this city, has
been boarding his cash for number of
years and usually kept 1t buried in the
cellar. AS near as he could tell the
sum aggregated $4,000, and was all in
gold. He made visit 20 a friend in
southern Indiana and while away his
nephew was in charge of the place.
Several days ago he went to his bank
to make deposit and was surprised to
find that his money was gone. He dug
up the earth all over the cellar floor but
failed to find it. He then notified the
police, and for a week or more they
have been looking for tine robbers, but
so far have no clue whatever to them
or the money. Stout has always been
looked upon by his neighbors as eccen-
trio. He inherited the farm upon which
he lives and, although working it for
all that was in it, he appeared never to
have money When he wanted to build
a small addition to his house he bor-
rowed the money from his brother.
He had to sell his hogs in order to
riase the money to pay mis- last taxes.
When asked about the robbery today
Stout was not inclined to talk. "Whose
business is it anyway" he asked. 1--WE

PASSENGER SERVICE EXTENDED.
Various Changes in Montana Railroad
Operations.

BozENAN, Mont, Dec. 24.-Important
changes have taFen place in railway
circles the past month, the mostimport-
ant being the extension of passenger
service from Butte TO Garrison, via the
Montana Union railway. Trains Nos.
8 and on the Butte and Bozeman branch
now run solid to Garrison with one Mon
tana Union crew under Conductor GUY.
and one Northern Pacific crew with Ed
Winston. The postofice department
has also extended it's service over the
line and appointed an additional clerk,
d. 0. Halloran. He and Clerk M. M.
Potter, of the Butte and Bozeman. con-
stitute the clerical force of the divis-
ion. The express service remains un-
changed, Messengers Enos and Elvidge
running to Butte, while Ed Chenowith
manages the remainder of the line.
There is rumor in railroad circles
that the Montana Central will soon as
sumo control of the Butte Bozeman short
line from Logan as tar west as Garrison.
Inls rumor no doubt is father to the ad-
ditional report to the effect that Logan
will soon be made divisional terminal
for the Butte-Bozeman branch. Should
this prove true engine and train crews
on local trains between this city and
Butte will be obliged to make their
headquarters at Logan instead of Boze-
man, as the local trains will then not
come as far as this city.

TITLE IN CONTROVERSY.
Site of n Former County Seat Claimed
Under a Placer Patent.


BUTTE, Dec. 26.-A suit that involves
the entire townsite and all the buildings
and improvements of the old town of
Silver Bow, valued at several hundred
thousand dollars, is pending before
Judge Speer. William Matthes is the
plaintiff in the case. He claims to own
fourth interest in the townsite and
wants the court to order a partition.
According TO his story he Joined with
Christian Nissler, William Stolte and a
man named Totten in locating 80 acres
of placer ground on the present site of
Silver Bow, and in August, 1893, they
obtained patent and each was to have
an equal interest in the ground and
were to be tenants in common. Some
time later Torten sold his fourth in
terest to Nissler, and the latter, it is
alleged, appropriated large part of
the whole placer without any right
whatever, and against the interest of
Matthes, erected buildings on the
ground. Matthes says the partition
was properly made and that he has
been practically crowded out.
The town was years ago the county
seat of Deer Lodge county and at one
time busy trading point, but of late
years has been almost deserted with
the exception of Nissler's big brewery,
Matthes' butcher shop and Stolte's
hotel Nissler now occupies about
the only valuable ground In the town,
Stolte the next best, while Matthes has
little water-washed corner on the
creek at one end of the town.
On the other hand Nissler claims
that in 1871 he squatted on the present
townsite, which was then part of the
public domain, and built a house.
Stolte soon followed and erected a hotel,
and later Matthes came with his
butchershop and then Totten drifted
in too. They each appropriated the
ground at present occupied by their re-
spective selves and lived there for
some years when they concluded, as
matter of self protection, to secure a
patent, in which the four were to join
with the expressed understanding that
each should retain mis- original portion
and not make claim to the ground
occupied by the others or any of them.
With this understanding Nissler bought
the Totten fourth interest and then
built his brewery, ice houses and resi-
dence and other Improvements at an
expense of 100000, upon which he has
ever since been paying taxes. Stolte
also improved his holding at cost of
$4,000 or more, while Matthes ex-
pended little or nothing.
