NEW YORK LDITOR SAYS VERMONT
SHOULD BE DEVELOPED AS
SUMMER RESORT
Edward cave, editor Of The Field
and Stream, who was in stowe ycstcr-
day as tho guest OF II. G.. Thomas,
state fish and game commissioner will
leave there to-day for tour of Wind
sor and Rutland counties. He came
from New York to Bennington county
where he remained two days. visiting
game wardons. Mr.. cave says that
those persons who declare vermont
for Nernontcrs'' to be their motto do
not look beyond their noses. The re-
sources of the state agriCulturally are
not equal to those of tho Middle West,
but a large revenue should be received
from summer visitors and nonresident
sportsmen. An immense revenue can
be derived by the people of Vermont
from these sources from we'll TODD
people in the large cities OF the East.
The natural resources OF forests, game
and fish should be conserved and Ncr-
mont may be placed in tho front rank
with tho most famous summer places
Of America 1t must not be overlooked
that it pays to advertise. Strangers
with the money to spend will not find
their way here unlimited. The rail-
roads must not be expected to do all
the advertising. Those VINO expect to
benefit by summer visitors must be
willing 10 give up something In order
to get tho people here. One Of tho
first things to do is % support the
fish and game commissioner in his
good work. Mr.. Cave thinks tile open
season for quail. grouse and woodcock

way to eliminate him from the new com

bill. which is now before tho senate
committee, a provision requiring that
one of tho nine commissioners under the
new law shall be appointed from each
judicial circuit. ProutY and Knapp both
live la tho same judicial circuit, and

that its purpose is understood. II would
