Northern Farmers.

Almost every variety Of grains and
grasses grown in the North that can be
successfully grown in the South, but the
crops that give best results for the money
invested and labor expended are fruits
and vegetables. Cotton is no longer king
in the South. This wonderful change

Any Other May Do as Well If the Citizens
Will Work Together.
The following from the West Ran
dolph (Vt.) Herald shows what can be
done for advancement and upbuildinn
of town by the united and persistent
action of its progressive citizens:
"Three years ago tho town of Bethel
yawned, stretched and woke up. Bust
ness men had become tired of seeing
the same names entered in the ledger
year after year, with only such changes
as death and time brought about. They
longed for new fields to conquer So
they put their heads and their hands
and their spare shillings together and
built s25, 900 shoe factory. That was
three years ago. Today Bethel has q
shoe factoryaof which any town might
we'll be proud. One hundred and fifty
hands are employed at good wages. The
pay roll amounts to ST, 200 week. Nor
is this all. The large tannery plant of
G. e. Z. G. Place has just been in
creased by the addition of finishing
building 1870 by 40, which will double
the force at tho shop, making 1875 hands
III all. This addition was made by the
aid of So, 600 su described in Bethel. The
business of Bethel has moro than dou-
bled i'll two years. The great trouble
now is to find suitable sites for tho
business blocks and dwellings pro-
jected"

The close of the school term being
at hand, the examination that is usual
ly held each half year of the Latin
classes Of st. Joseph's Cathedral school
was held yesterday afternoon. 1t was
conducted by Rev. Father Harris, and
comprised a review of the work done
since the opening in September. The
pupils went over their course in Latin
grammar. analysis, syntatic rules and
translation in the authors in which the
class work is engaged, and showed
ready and apt knowledge in those
various branches. Father Harris
seemed well pleased with the progress
made and praised the Sister in charge
of the classes for the proficiency dis
played by the students. These classes
seemed to be one Of the most pleasing
as well as most encouraging features
in the Cathedral schools and give every
promise of future good from an educa-
tional point of view. The following
pupils were the most distinguished:
First grade-John Jepson, Willie
Michigan, Jerrie O'Leary and Willie
McJiltOn.
Second grade-Frank Wassman,
