II Will be a Feature of the Exhibit at
Burlington Next Summer.
A. J. Croft of Fairfield V. l. Spear
of Randolph, G. H. Soule of Fairfield,
p. b. b. Northrup of Sheldon and 7.
G. Bronson of Hardwick, representing
the Vermont Maple Sugar Makers as
sociation, Mr. Spear also representing
the Vermont Sugar market, were in
Burlington Thursday to consult with
f. NJ. Sheldon in regard TO their plac-
ing exhibits in the Greater Vermont
exhibit to be held from June 10 to
September 10 at the armory at Bur
lngton. The Vermont Maple Sugar
Makers association will have large
display Of the maple product in all it's
forms and will also have it on sale.
The Vermont Maple Sugar market
will also have sugar on sale and pro
poses to serve hot pan cakes with ma
pie syrup In this way tourists who
visit Vermont and who have never
enjoyed an opportunity to eat the real
maple product with hot cakes will find
another reason worth living for. and
will probably become customers Of
the Vermont product.
This greater Vermont exhibit Will,
no doubt, be the largest best and most
varied exhibit of Vermont soil prod
ucets and manufacturers products
ever shown in the state Not only
will every large industrial concern in
the state be represented as well as
all the Vermont soil products, but the
different magnificent views of noun
tain, glen, dale, valley stream and
lake will be shown with pictures. The
l.umiere company who invented the
process OF colored photography and
who are conceded to be the best pho
tographers in the world, will have
1900 views of different parts of the
state, taken in color, and which will
be shown on a large screen daily with
the aid of the powerful lantern. For
instance the apple industry of Grand
Isle will be presented on the floor,
all of the choicest specimens Of the
fruit being shown There will also be
stereopticon views of the orchard
trees in bloom, and when they are la
den with the lucious fruit. And so
it will be with the other Vermont pro-
ducts and industries. Visitors will
not only have an opportunity to see
and handle the real products, COM
mercial, from the soil and from the
quarry, but they can also see by aid
of the stereopticon the home fields,
the manufacturing plants, etc
Some people from other towns say
that Burlington will reap the largest
benefit from this exhibit, but they are
wrong in that belief. Every city and
nearly every town in the state will be
represented and as Burlington is the
principal gateway of the state many
more people will have an opportunity
to see the exhibit here than would be
possible in any other place.
Some tourists, for instance, stop
ping in Burlington, go to the exhibit
and see a magnificent colored view
of Bristol Notch, equal to many Swiss
views. why, we have not seen that, "
says one They learn it is only 30
miles away and the following day
they make a trip there and when they
return to their various homes they
advertise it far and wide. This is the
greatest move that can be made for
the securing of Vermont summer
boarders, and of course, the small
towns will reap the greatest benefit.
Dr. II. ID. Holton, president of the
State Board of Health intends to have
the state tuberculosis exhibit at the
exhibition and he wants Brattleboro
his home town to be well represented
also.
