across the entire states of Indiana AM
Ohio the farm buildings are not to be com
pared to those in Vermont, for size com
fort or appearance, and hardly one goOt
barn in either state is to be seen from tn
railroad. Cattle stood around hay stack
shivering in the snowstOrm that was thel
prevailing and the only shelter for man
of them was straw laid on posts and rails
A passenger with whom DR.. Campbell
talked said that large numbers of cattI
died from exposure each winter. Farr
implements such as wagon reapers, thresh
ing machines, traction and power engine
were all standing out to the weather to
eaten up by the tooth of decay. The Ian
is perfectly level and very fertile and wit
the same amount of energy and care ex
pended here in Vermont it might be mad
very remunerative. The doctor says tina
he did not taste of a particle of butter fror
the time he left Vermont until he returne
that had the good flavor that characterize
Vermont butter. Altogether the docto
believes that Vermont is quite a country t
live in if we do have the Green Mountain
and north pole winters to contend with.
