A Vermonter's Success,

The selection of Col. George b. NJ.
Harvey, editor Of the North Ameri-
can Review, for the responsible posi-
ton of executive head of the publish
ing house of Harper & Brot hers, is
another tribute to this son of the
Green Mountain State who has distin-
guiShed himself both in business and
letters. He was born in Peacham,
and after working on the st. Johns
bury CaledOnian and the Springfield
Republican, he went to New York.
where after various newspaper expert
ences, including the ownership of
daily paper in Newark, N. j., he
eventually became manager of the
World. After retiring from this
position he became private secretary
for Hon. William G. Whitney, former
ly secretary of the navy, and later be-
came that millionaire's agent in
number of important railway deals.
Last May he purchased the North
American Review, which has since
doubled its circulation. In view of
the fact that Col. Harvey is only
about thirty-tve years of age, it is
evident that his success has been al
most phenomenal, even for a Ver-
monter.-Free Press.

FACTS ABOUT ROADS
Authentic Figures Showing What IT
Costs to Haul Produce in the
United States.

1.-The condition OF roads IN he Uni cd
States, taken as whole, can most
clearly be shown in figures. If we can
make inquiries of n hundred farmers,
in as many localities, as to how long it
crops to town, how far he hauls it and
what his time and that of his team are
worth, we can readily ascertain what
it costs on an average to market load
of crops" says Otto Dorner, chairman
of the highway improvement commit
tee of the League of American Wheel
men.
'lf the number of these inquiries be
sufficiently increased and extended
over the entire country the result will
pretty nearly show what it costs on
an average in the whole United States
to haul a load of crops TO market. If
with each inquiry we also ascertain
the weight of the load we can figure
out how much it costs per 100 pounds,
or per ton, to market all these crops,
and if the inquiry also include the num-
Der of miles comprising each haul we
can easily figure the cost of hauling
these crops per ton per mile. This
gives a unit which can be compared
with the same unit, similarly obtained,
by similar inquiries made in other
countries.
"An inquiry of this kind was made
in November, 1895, by the United States
department of agriculture. through its
office of road inquiry. Ten thousand
circulars We're sent out to farmers in
all parts of the United States asking
for information in these various partic-
ulars. Replies were received from over
1,200 counties, distributed throughout
the United States, and the results were
carefully compiled. The weight of loads
hauled varied between an average of
2,409 pounds in the prairie states and
an average of 1897 pounds In the cot
ton states, the average weight of farm
pounds, or practically ton. The av
erage length of haul was found to be
10 Ito miles, varying between 1910
miles in the eastern states and % $40
miles in the Pacific coast and mountain
states. The average cost of market
ing ton of crops in the United States
was found to be $3.02. 1t was as high
as $5.12 in the Pacific coast and noun
tain states, due to long hauls, and as
low as $1.S7 in the northern and east
ern states, which are more densely set
tied, and where railroads are numer-
Gus and hauls are shorter. The average
cost of hauling ton a distance of one
mile was 25 cents, it being % cents
in the prairie and Pacific coast and
mountain states, and rising as high as
80 cents in the eastern states.
"The net grand result of all these
inquiries and computations showed
very clearly, and as nearly as human
intelligence can, that it cost the farm
ers of the United States ON the average
in time, labor and energy, figuring the
value of teams, wagons and men at
what they can reasonably be hired for,
rs cents every time a ton of their crops
was hauled a mile nearer to market;
or, briefly, that it costs 25 cents per
ton per mile to move crops in the Unit
ed States"

Summer Homes.

An exchange says: 1.-The recent
sale of several Windham county farms
for summer homes to people from out
side the state encourages the hope
that in the near future the abandoned
farms, of which this county perhaps
has as few as amy in the state, will
have been reclaimed and transformed
into inviting and profitable estates.
City people are beginning to under
stand that there is value in these hill
farms, with clear and invigorating air,
pure water and healthful surround
ingS, allording at nominal cost most
reStful resorts, and there is an in
crcaSing demand for farm property
not too far removed from the railroad
lines. Most of these farms with a
little expense are made to return Il
good rate Of interest on the invest
ment. a fairly good farm can be had
for about what it would cost to sum-
mer ones family at the seashore or at
the more fashionable mountain re-
sorts, while there is the satisfaction
and enjoyment in the freedom and in
of possession and owner
ship"
Every part of the state has many
farms that would make most desirable
homes and could be sold read
lily for that purpose if they were only
advertised. 1t would pay
the towns to take this matter up and
thus secure a desirable class of citi-
zcns, men who have money to spend,
and who are willing to spend it.

What can some of the members of
the Vermont Press Association say in
justification of their act in holding
the annual meeting before the time
named in the call, electing its officers
and dispensing with the attrac-
tive program prepared, from the dis
cussion of which much benefit might
have been derived ? This too without
notifying the members Of the asSOcia-
ton not present, but allowing a con-
siderable number to spend their time
and money in going to Burlington to
attend the meeting. The fact that
those members had been surfeited at
political banquet the night before
and wished to seek the secluson of
their own domiciles is a pretty thin
excuse.
