The picture on this page gives view of
the small farm of A. A. Halliday, near
Bellows Falls, Vt. There are but six
acres on the place, yet this is space enough
to yield fair income. Three years ago,
there was not buildings on the place
except the old ice house under the trees
this will soon be taken down. All the
other building are new. You will notice
that henhouse, barn and sheds are con-
nected so that all are really under one roof.
That is the way they do it in New England
to avoid going outdoors in bad weather.
Three years ago, there was not fruit tree
on the place. Now there are 200 plums,
70 pears, rs peaches, $50 cherries, $50
currant bushes, and ounces, apricots,
grapes, apples and small fruits. The main
crops sold are tomatoes and fruits. When
the trees grow too large to grow crops
between them, the design is to stock the

THE MEN WHO BUY NOT.

Why Newsdea1ers Sometimes Slip Rabies
Bands Around Their Magazines.
The man who gets up early in tho
morning SO he can have look at his
neighbours paper before the rightful
owner has a chance to take it in from
his doorstep does not stand very high in
the estimation of the newsdealer. This
is because he spoils trade.
There is another man, however, who
is even more cordially detested by the
vender of periodicals. He is the fellow
who never buys anything, but has the
habit of dipping into the weekly papers
and magazines. The keeper of a news
stand makes tempting display of his
stock, for he knows that strong pic
ture or even pretty cover often brings
him stray customer, but he expects
the mere locker on to be content with
this much, and he is likely to frown
upon the man who resorts to all kinds
Of schemes in order to get peep at the
inside pages
The stands in the ferry houses and
railway stations suffer the most from
these penurious cranks, for there is
nothing else to attract their attention
while they are waiting for a boat or a
train. They run through the leaves Of
the latest books and magazines and
have been known to draw the tacks out
Of papers nailed up against the stand so
that they could see what was on the
other side Of the sheet, But it is not
what they see and read for nothing that
worries tho newsdealer. He would be
willing to put up with that II they did
not injure his stock. Indeed, he would
much rather have . man take up q mag
anime bodily and carefully examine e7-
ny page than to have him grab # BY
ono corner and bend up all The leaves
In . surzsptitious attempt TO go the |
pictures. He would also rather have
Iou aak him to hand you . periodical
han to have you shove his stock all out
d line while trying 20 80 the half AZ
he page that is hidden BY pile Of 9TH
n papers.
SO great 10 this nuisance that the
had to adopt schemes for
heir own protection. The most success
hi, 80 far as preventing the leaves from
icing turned, consists Of placing a rub
,er band around the top and bottom Of
! magazine and using it ON the top II |

THE DAILY NEWSPAPER.
IT, Developnont and tt Worth Exoelleat-
IL Set Forth. .i l. y

It, Developupsnt and Its Worth Exosllsat-
~ Set Forth.
The evolution Of the daily press into
more than q newspaper is forced by
public expectation and custom. It il to
. majority of people, at least ON this
continent, the sole library. It must salts
~ wider demand than that Of the man
who merely wants to know if stocks
have risen since yesterday or whether
Senegambia and Bolivia have gone to
war overnight.
Matthew Arnold said, with a sus-
picion of tears in his voice, that il he
lived something like so years longer
than he expected to, he would probably
be the only man in Great Britain who
would be found reading books. He took
an extreme and rather pessimistio view.
As matter Of fact the press has been
largely instrumental in encouraging the
reading Of good books, and while it en-
crosses the attention of many millions
Of readers to itself the fact Of the in
creasing literary output Of the country
and the world refutes the notion that
the public is losing it's appetite for mat
tiers Of enduring moment. Thoreau, the
apostle of high thought and individual
ism, took no care of the changes that are
recorded and forgotten every day because
he lived apart from men and studied ma
ture. He it was who cried: "Do not read
the times. Read the eternities. But he
lived in day when the press was small,
of little influence and servile. In his
own state it supported the demands of
the Shareholders, to his infinite disgust,
and it was first and last mere record
Of the days doings.
But the press Of this day is more than
a record. It is mirror Of the worlds
thoughts and intentions, a critic, a
judge, guide, friend. By many the
news pages are glanced at, and attention
is bestowed Oh the contents that exhibit
deliberation, research and scholarship.
There is as good writing and as pur-
poseful and helpful writing in the daily
papers today as there was in the maya
zines Of the first half Of our century be-
fore. Moreover, it is writing to some
purpose. It is not for mere display of
style. but to accomplish the betterment
Of governments, OF society, Of institu-
tions and arts, to stimulate effort in
right causes. to encourage industry,
thrift, honor and content The condition
Of the world in our century without the
daily press is unthiukable. Brooklyn

VLADlvOSTOK.

An Interesting Pen Picture OF the Russtan
City In Siberia.
Vladivostok has the aspect Of an in
ferior Hongkong, Of about quarter the
size. Hills crowned with forts rise round
it up to height Of 800 feet 1t lies on
the south side Of a peninsula 30 miles
long, called Maravief Amursky, in 43
degrees minutes 81 seconds north lati-
tude, and 131 degrees 81 minutes 81 sec-
onds east longitude. The town is be-
tween four and five miles long, but is
struggling and uncounected, and OF no
breadth. Some streets are very steep, and
all are horribly dusty In dry weather,
being never watered, and being oontin.
ually crossed in all directions by dros-
kies driven at smart pace Instead Of
pavements the streets have "sidewalks"
Of planks, as commonly seen in new
American cities. You take six stout
planks, some IS feet long, and lay them
side by side, and you continue the proc
ess for the requisite number of versts
or miles (three versts are two miles),
and the "sidewalk" is complete. save
for a few props and nails where tho
ground is too soft, or the foundation
degenerated into holes.
The droskies are driven by redheaded,
mub nosed Russian izvozchiks in low,
glazed stovepipe hats, with very curly
brims, red sleeves, plated black skirts
and high boots. In them one often sees,
lolling as passengers, a couple Of frowsy
Chinese or still frowsier Korean. The
fare is only 80 kopecks, or shilling and
10 pence, an hour, or over half an hour,
and from point to point there are ten
penny and fivepenny fares, according to
distance. The regulations forbid charg-
ing more, but, with fine irony, allow
the driver Ito take less, if he likes. -
He may not leave his cab to take care Of
itself, may not Using, make noise or
cause disturbance" he must temper
his pace to "town trot, and keep to
the righthand side of the road
The troika has dashing look; the
horse in the middle trots under the arch
ed duga, whose object and effect, when
put on, are to keep the shafts at
the same distance apart. The small
horses right and left are canJering, and
their bodies incline a little outward
from the car. In Vladivostok are few
complete triple teams; generally there
are only the "middle horse" trotting,
and one other cantering on its near side.
The water barrel on wheels drawn by
horse or bull and often driven by SOL
der is frequent sight, carrying water
up to the forts and to the upper town.
A funnier horse vehicle Is the sit
astride, oushioned beam ON which izvoz-
nhik and cloaked and spurred officer sit,
with dangling legs. one behind the
other, tho officer behind. -Foetnight1y
