THE VERMONT BUILDING.
A Caledonian County Visitor at the
Worlds Fair speaks Her Mind.

Although no art critic, my hear
has burned within me to speak
word in regard to our much criticised
State building at the Worlds Fair.
Since the opening of the Exposition
criticisms have been so lavishly madt
concerning the impotence and foo.'
ishness of those who planned tiit
building and wasted the money aP-
propriafed by our legislature, that
people, before seeing for themselves
became unduly prejudiced, and very
unfair remarks pass for truth.
1t is said that it reflects no honor
upon the State; that no building at all
would he less humiliating to YER
monters visiting the Fair; and that
many have ''passed by on the other
side, looking with longing eyes be-
yond the '-totem poles" TO the more
pretentious gables that greet the sky.
Having heard much censure, was
prepared TO see the disgrace of the
State" and | will admit that the
view obtained from the intranural
railway of ''where "a building ought
to be, was not pippossessing. Full
of disgust, started to lind the mis-
cradle little thing" which somebody
told me was tout Of sight. somewhere
among the state buildings. found
it and surprise and delight came with
the finding, for ii certainly is ching
of beauty" in design and execution.
One, ut least, who went ''to scoii re-
manned 10 pray"
It is true that it might have been
larger; that il might have been higher;
that ii might have had towers eaci.-
ing to the skies: that ii might have
been marble from foundation to top
most stone; and that il might have
been COMPLETE exposition in itself.
1t is none of these. and. after wander
ing among the magnificent State dis
plays, one comes to this '.villa" for
rest and delight just as our worn
brothers and sisters from the city
come TO our green hills for Natures
healing.
The more one studies the building,
the more il grows in beauty. A gem
tleman just returned from Pompeii
declared tito be the most charming
thing of the Fair, because the repro
duction Of Pompeiian villa has been
SO faithfully carried out.
If one will study the building, he
will find enough to repay for any eff
fort of this nature. If he is the least
he may, while listening
to the water of the fountain in the
court, hear the step OF some blind
Nydia or seem to catch her song,

may pass from the throng of people
and the living present to the past,
when Pompeii was full Of stir and liy-
ing men.
Nermonters may congratulate Them
selves that beautiful conception has
been so faithfully executed, and that
1 model was taken from people of
art, wealth and refinement.
The first idea in regard TO State
has been carried out by
Vermont, and her building is de-
ightful resting-place for visitors. Ev-
ny Nermonter should feel thankful

: not burdened with debt. No dis

and beauty characterize the

Not so in Hawaii What
would the Star propose a small
farmer to DO with a piece of
land be it ever so fertile, say on

products would he be supposed

TOPICS OF THE DAY.

The Star has several times
encouraged the establishment Of
small farms in Hawaii, and advo-
Gated the partition of the large
lands now belonging TO the
Crown and 10 the Government
into homesteads. Theoretically,
the Star is undoubtedly right,
but practically we believe it to
be way off the mark. The COM
parsons which it draws between
France. England and America ON
one side, and Hawaii on the
other cannot bear criticism.
Hawaii Is not adapted for the
small farmer. simply because
there is no market for any pro-
duets. except sugar which it is an
impossibility to raise proftably
on a small scale. In Illinois and
other states where the small
farmer thriyes and hourishes.
there is a ready market for the
products which he can raise,
and which he does not use for
home consumption The means
of transportation are Very facile.
The grain which he raises, the
butter which he produces, the few
heads of cattle or the pigs and
poultry which he desires to sell,
can be transported by rail to the
great manufacturing cities with
their numerous inhabitants and
easily disposed of Should the
joined numbers of small farmers
produce more than can be con-
sumed by the inhabitants of the
local markets, the products will
be carried rs easily to more dis
tant markets in adjoining states
or il it should be necessary ex-
ported from the country to
foreign markets.

The Star editor may suggest
that If number of such farms
was started a prosperous colony
would be founded, and the "con-
genial surroundings would no
longer be missing. Yes. but if
a number of such farms on a
similar scale were opened up the
local markets would be overstock-
ed and the farmer would soon
have to undertake the unprofta-
BILE task of eating his own potatoes.
This country can never become a
manufacturing country nor can
we ever hope to successfully ex-
port products which can be raised
tenfold cheaper and equally good
in California. the only outlet for
our products that we
have. As it is now, the mar
ket for butter is overstocked. and
the price is so low that it has
ceased to be paying industry.
And the same would soon be the
case with all other products
which can be raised and give
returns within a reasonable time.
