alleys. They are a disgrace to any
community. But one person cannot
keep them clean. 1t takes every per-
son in the block. on every street in the
city.
To tell the truth it would be a hard
proposition to get down some of the
alleys for the tin cans. paper. garb-
age, ashes, etc.
If they were paved they, of course,
would look better and in many towns
which cannot boost the streets, Ham
mond has. the alleys are almost like
streets with their paved cleanliness.
1t has been said by some one that a
woman's front door is indicative of the
kind of woman that lives within. This
is not true. Many a woman has an
attractive front door and beautiful re-
ception hall. whose kitchen and back
door are-well, terrible.
So Hammond has beautiful streets
and we wish she could be judged by
them. but Let our health officers take a
trip over the city. via the alleys Let
them look into the barns, the back
yards, the garbage dumps in resident
sections of the city and then make
their report.
So to avoid this. let US have a city
house cleaning day. Let the children

the paper and trash be burned so far

ADVANCE IN VERMONT FARMS.

The period IN which a Vermont farm
could be had for n song is RAPIDLY dis
appearing. This is the result of a
combination of influences. In the first
place farmers who thought they could
find better opening in other parts OF
the country are coming back to Yer
mont in considerable numbers. realiz-
ing that lands in other parts of the
United States, which are not the fire.
Quent scene Of droughts or foods or
hurricanes. are already well taken up.
and that there are better opportunities
right at home, regularity o. seasons
and certainty Of crops considered, than
can be found elsewhere.
In the second place, and perhaps
fully as gratifying as any, ouc own
farmers are catching the spirit of
progress, and are adopting more mod
often tell the whole difference between
profit and loss, One good farmer sets
an example for whole neighborhood
Many farmers 40 not 90 better because
they 40 not know how, and when they
see progressive tiller OF the soil
make two blades of grass or two dairy
cows thrive where one starved before,
IT Is easy to profit from the object
Lesson afforded.
IN the third place visitors from the
larger cities as we'll as from smaller
cities in other States are more and
more realizing tAo beauties Of Yer
mont and are establishing summer
places within our borders.
All these ana other movements are
resulting in the taking up of avail
able lands and IT Is now evident that
land In the Green Mountain State Is a
good investment. Under those circum-
stances 1t IS not strange tina. the price
or farm lands in Vermont are rapidly
advancing.
