Mr.. Green 10 an vtau. ts usetshen, tbc
railroad men and N hotel men are aof the
whole thing, the cottage colony here buys

Of the father growth and that same hotel
grew and grew before the day OF modern
railroads, still there IL no reason why that

The effect OF this "Summer Boafder"
business Ia very noticeable 10 Manchester
ia the Increase Of real estate values and 10
the very percep,ible ircresse 10 the grad
list. The percentage OF Increase betsetn
the apprsisals Of 1900 ard 1904 shows
gain OF SO per cent. IL lbe town and gain
OF over 81 per cent. IN the Incorporated
Village OF MAI chester; this having direct
effect on the taxes, the town tax for 1904
being only IS cents and the village tax 20
cents.
The direct bent fit to the residents, al d
more particularly TO the farmer, Ia very APP
parent. The amount OF farm produce aid
products which are consumed BY the sum-
mer bosrder directly !. more than one
would suppose until careful investigation
had been made.
In the average season, the Equinox
House, holding $50 people, consumes Tor
their guests and employees, 1000 lbs. Veal
5000 lbs. Lamb and Mutton; l2O0lbs. Tur-
KEY. 1000 lbs Broilipg Chickens; 5000 lbs.
Fowl; 5000 Doz n Eags; 5000 lbs. butter
80 900 quarts milk, aud 400 lbs. Decking
and Gosling, practically all q this purchas-
I'd 10 the State.
Fully ss much more is consumed by tie
"Summer Bosrder" In the small hotels and
cottages and by the summer residents.
This consumption has direct effect ON the
prices Of farm products aud gives the far
ner home market for considerable pro-
portion Of his best paying crops.
There are In Manchester four livery |
stables, running rs horses; one.half that
number would be ample were II not for the
,ummer guests. There are during the
summer season outside OF the livery bus'-
less, from 50 to rs boarding horses, owned
" the summer guests and residents Ed
