There are no large |

and din of huge machinery does not |
Cypress the ear. 1t is an agricultural
state, and yet not one where great
farms ignor ant of scythe and hoe,
know only the cultivator, the self
binding reaper and the steam thresh-
err, and tell only of tenant popula-
ton. All through her midst are
scattered little villages surrounded
by comparatively small farms, each
occupied by it's owner. The habits of
the people are simple, the cost of
living small. The fashionable sum-
mer resort has not yet found it's way
into her territory. Yet there is no
lacking of refined and cultured men
and women. The beauties of nature
have called forth sweet response in
hearts and lives. Flowers are grow

tropical blossoms, but only the COM
mon flowers, yet they are tenderly
cared for, and their beauty and
fragrance speak more eloquently
than words of the characters of those
who live among them. The tramp
and the burglar do not visit there.
The women of fashion and the man of
sport find nothing congenial. But to
one of pure and healthy thought, of
gentle and and refined taste, there is
constant appeal. Her sons are
strong and honest, her daughters
modest and pure. The home is
sacred. Brother and sister, husband
and wife, father aud daughter dwell
in peace, loving God and each other

BRADSTREET'S VERMONT TRADE
REPORT.

The pleasant weather of the past
week has had gratifying effect upon
both the business and agricultural sit
uation. In place of the discouraging
reports as to the corn crop which have
been received for the past month
there is now prospect of fair crop
if there is late season. The past
week has been marked by an intense
anxiety in political campaign but it
does not appear to have materially
affected business in general. The
manufacturers are reasonably busy
for the season of the year which is
usually somewhat quiet. Wholesale
business is good and collections are
satisfactory. Retail trade has been
stimulated by the improved weather
and prospects for good fall trade are
encouraging. Business in Burlington
is good. The jobbers are finding
| good demand for staples and no COM
plant heard as to payments; retail
trade good. There appears to be a
constant Improvement in the business
situation at Winooski largely due to
the efforts that are being made to i'm
prove the conditions of the large mill
property and to the increased en-
ployment which the business affords.
Rutland reports manufacturing inter

Crops good as rule but late and

crop is good, potato crop fair, al
though injured somewhat b. toe

ceived for all crops. Montpelier re-
ports business good for the season o

and labor we'll employed. A new gal

Last Friday evening the ladies aid
society OF the Methodist Episcopal church
added another snccessfnl social to their
splendid record. The scene Of the
merriment was the home Of S. n. Fitch
and not in the memory Of the Oldest in
habitant was a better time recalled. AL
though the night was exceptionally cold
the house was crowded with people in
pursuit Of the good time" which the aid
socials always evidence. Strange Do
ings" had been promised and after n
brilliant musical program by Ruby Odds,
Rilla Mae Willis and Myrtis Chandler
Macdonald, the innovation proved TO be
mesmerism. Shouts of laughter greeted
each victim Of the mysterious spell.
Supper interrupted the mesmerist but
after the delicious refreshments a few
more knowing ones visited mesmerland.
Then the secret Of it all was told by the
~innovator and every one went home
fully convinced that laughter doeth good
like a medicine.

Railroad locomotives may be profit
ably built In Nebraska, as is proved be-
yond dispute by the recent action Of the
Burlington in placing an additional or.
der for engine construction at the Have
lock shops. The order is for six Of the
class TX" type, and it follows the con-
struction at the same shops Of a large
number OF engines. For this last order,
as for others placed at the Havelock
shops, there was sharp competition.
Each engine means an outlay o fbetween
$1,000 to $4,000. a large part Of this sum
being paid out for labor. Some OF the
fastest engines in the service ofthe Bur.

compare fayorably with new machines
received during last y'ear from eastern

equal to the best.

BUY CREAM FLOUR al Garlock,s

We hear that the loss in cattle on the
ranges in the northern part OF South
Dakota has been quite heavy during the
recent cold wave. Nebraska has also
suffered extremely in some parts. The
Black Hills seem to enjoy an immunity
from the sweeping losses, for though the
extreme cold has caused the stock to
shrink to some extent, there has been nc
loss thus far reported. The ample sup
ply OF nutricions erase, together with the
excellent facilities for shelter in the
Hills, will account for our fortunate es
cape.
