Recently also a more careful prep
aration for business career has been
developed. II includes high school
and college and one or more years in
graduate school of administration
and finance, followed by several years
apprenticeship in an office or counting
house.
yet none of these calings is any
more profession then farming is be-
ginning to be. There are already
graduate schools of agriculture and
forestry in some of our largest uni
versities to train college graduates
to be expert farmers.
The salvation of the future farmer

lowed by professional training in the
applied science of agriculture. While
no educational system can make up
the difference in native ability between
one man and another, while some men
without special training will always
surpass in achievement some who have
it. vet the sound mental training Civ
en- in our higher educational institu-
tons always makes men more effec-
tive and powerful than they could be
without It.
at is truer today than it has ever
been before that the men who have
ambition and industry. knowledge and
the power to use it in the business of
life. will rule. and men without this
equipment must serve as these train
ed rulers shall direct"
When the farmer learns the lesson
that science can teach him, he will
revolutionize the business of agricul-
ture. Farming is far from being a
failure today, but we are just begin
ming to learn in this country what
what may be done in the cultivation
of the soil. Land has been so plenti-
full that we have not felt the need of
the intensive farming that is essen
tial to success in Europe. We have
considered that the tilling of the soil
did not require any course of study or
training, a capacity for plenty of
hard work being the most essential
quality needed. Now we are learn
ing that scientific education applied
to farming means better crops and
less hard labor One of the greatest
of the century is the de-
velopment of the science of agricul-
ture.

About Topics of Interest to

VERMONT AND SUMMER HOTELS.

VERMONT AND SUMMER HOTELS.
burlington Free Press)
An interesting sdelight on the
question of summer hotels in YER
mont is shed by the Barre Times in
the following pointed paragraph;
THE new 100000 summer hotel
at Dixville Notch N. H., came very
near being in Vermont, anyway"
Did you stop to wonder or try to
explain how it happened, that this
big summer hotel was located on
the east side of the Connecticut river
instead of on the west side? Why
should the west side of the Connec-
ticut be dotted with big summer ho-
tells, while the Green Mountain State
is almost barren of these summer
plants? Is it our lack of scenery, or
our climate, or is it some policy of
ours that is inimical to summer hotel
projects in Vermont?
These are not idle questions. They
involve consideration which should
be taken into account and carefully
analysed, if we are to successfully
solve the problem in connection with
the development of Vermont as a
summer resort; and until we have
reached a solution thereof, we must
seek in vain to rival the Granite
State.

Mr.. Martin said that practically all

APPLE GROWING.

AS an illustration of the extent OF
the interest aroused in more extern
sive and profitable apple growing in
New England, the following editorial
utterance of the Boston Transcript
may be of interest:
The idea is gradually spreading ia
the agricultural circles of this sec.
ton that if we are successfully to
compete in production with the farm
ers of the West we must be as thor
ough and advanced in our methods.
This would be followed by improved
results in many branches of the in
dustry, but naturally it should be
tried first along the lines of least
resistance, and one of these seems
to be apple growing. The revival ol
interest in this is indicated by many
encouraging signs; still, many who
experience that interest do not know
how to make a practical beginning.
Curiously enough the initiative in
this movement is not to be found in
the great body of active husbandmen,
but in those who approach it from
the academic and scientific side.
While considerable Legitimate
criticism has been passed upon the
politics of Pennsylvania, in her farm
ing methods she keeps well up to-
ward the head of the procession, and
she is now conducting an enterprise
the interests of apple growers that
furnishes a suggestion worthy of ad +.
option in other States. The State

ANCIENT HINDU TEMPLE.

Remains Found in Java of Great Work
of the Eighth Century,
The Boroboedoer, unearthed by Sir
Stamford RafIles when the English
ruled in Java, was built by the Hin
dus in the eighth century, and is by
far the finest example of their work
In the island. Standing on a hill in
the middle of the valley this imposing
edifce, covering nearly ten acres rises
to height of upward of hundred
feet above the summit of the hill.
1t consists of a series of stone ter
race built on top of each other in
diminishing magnitude, SO as to leave
circumscribing galleries, and crowned
by vast cupola entrance to the gal
leries is gained by four stairways,
north, south, east and west, which run
from the ground straight up to the big
top terrace, in the middle of which
stands the browning cupola, surround
ed by numerous smaller lattice work
cupalos, and from which one may step
aside into any of the intermediate gal
leries.
The whole is built of stone, showing
an immense amount of carving, and,
though there is no genuine inside to
thetemple, many of til egalleries are
covered in, innumerable images of
Buddha occupy inches or prominent
positions on the walls, and the sides
of the galleries were paved with bas-
reliefs. indicating the glorifcation of
this god and other incidents in his
history. When one considers that
there are several miles of basreliefs
alone the work expended on the pyra-
mids of Egypt pales into insignificance
before this stupendous undertaking.

long way towards stimulating interest

quent substantial growth of Fallon.

but under certain conditions, power
men may be able to pay one dollar per
horse power per month. If this price
is realized, the power now going to
waste, should in time bring nearly
$40, 900 yearly. If the increased power
possible during the irrigation season
can be utilized, this sum might easily
reach $50, 900 annually or more than it
