Vermont Farms Rising in Value.

It is a remarkable thing that more
people will buy land when prices are
rising than when values are low and at
a standstill. The present trend in
connection with farm values in Yer
mont is a splendid illustration of this
tendency. A man who sells many Yer
mont farms told the writer yesterday
that there was growing demand for
farms in this region in spite of the
fact that values are approaching to
marked degree as result OF high
prices for foodstuffs which are pro-
duced on our farms. Some people who
went west expecting to make fortune
in western farm lands are returning to
Vermont, realizing that at present
prices there is better opportunity to
establish farm home here than In the
west.
A movement which is tending
strongly to strengthen the prices of
President William G. Brown Of the
New York Central lines.
The back to the farm movement has
been formally and permanently or
ganized by the creation of the Agri-
| cultural Implement Improvement
association of New York and the cleo
ton as it's president of the head of the
| New York Central lines and originator
| of the project to transplant thousands
to city workers with their families on
farms in the state.
The purpose of the movement is to
assist in attracting attention to the
opportunities offered in agriculture
the condition now being very different
from what it has been at any time in
| the past. There are many farmers
who are successful from business
standpoint, yet there are hundreds OF
cheap farms which may be purchased
for even less than the buildings or
them are worth, while the land is
capable of producing good crops:
This is as true of Vermont as it is OF
New York, which was particularly
involved in the statement; and it is
safe to say that all New England
states will be the center of similar
movement from natural causes in the
not far distant future. Back to Yer
mont farms, is coming to be the cry O.
the investor as we'll as farmer, ant
we shall be greatly surprised if thu
next five years do not witness radlca
change in farming conditions IN Yer
mont as we'll as in farm values.
Vermont soil is worth more THAI
a mere living for farmer. 1t is beinl
made to pay a handsome profit in man,
cases, and the slogan should be wha

The News promptly complied with
the requirements of the Barton Mont
tor in answering its questions, with
the understanding that the neighbor
would at once answer the News en-
quiries relating to what it may or may
not know on certain features of DR..
Mead's campaign. The Monitor had
ample time to make answer in it's
issue last week, but failed to do so.
Why does the Barton neighbor hesitate
and delay its reply?-Northfield News.
After six months, and the repetition
of our questions, the News calls itself
prompt in answering. We answered
in less than one twelfth of that time,
which must be termed instantaneous.
The News must be in an awful state

This weary, sorrowing, SHINING word,

And pulsing as with PHYS balmy

T. N. Vail,

7. N. Vail, of Lyndonville has per-
formed a service to the state that
cannot be overestimated in providing
an agricultural and industrial course
at Lyndon Institute, to be opened next
September. One of the crying needs
of Vermont is scientific agricultural
training for her young men. We have
educated for the learned professions.
and have turned out an overproduction
of doctors and lawyers, but we have
proceeded on the theory that farmer
needed no education; that man who
could do nothing else could run farm.
Recently we have begun to realize
that in hardly any occupation is there
an opportunity for the use of expert
scientific knowledge equal to that
demanded in agriculture.
The science of the soil is a very
complicated subject, and the man who
knows most about soils and fertilizers
and rotation of crops and seed selection,
and variety of kindred matters, is the
man most likely to succeed, always
provided he has the indispensable
quality of common sense, without
which success is not probable anywhere.
The details given in yesterday s
Journal ought to appeal very strongly
| W IIldlIy UOySs IL Op6IlS all
opportunity for developing one of the
greatest of our resources, making 1t
more profitable and better worth the
attention of lad with brains and
ambition. A way is provided for
boys without money to pay their own
way, a far better plan than giving
them instruction outright.
Agriculture has been allowed to fall
behind in the general march of prog
ress and this is particularly true with
some of our Vermont farms. We have
many cultivated and managed by pro-
: gressive and prosperous men. On the
other hand we have a great number
that are run, either at loss, or in {
manner that does not return the
] profits that modern methods woulC
make certain. In many instances the
output of our farms might be doubled
by more intensive and scientific
e cultivation.
\ There ought to be large entering
class at Lyndon next fall and thi'
should be the beginning of movement
e that will put Vermont in the forefron

~ ing the passing OF the old
time country doctor before the
advance OF modern science, says the
New York Sun, and one of them told
some stories OF a practitioner OF this
type who was the terror OF his boy
hood days.
He was a curious old autocrat,
with curative methods all his own,
said the gentleman. 81 remember
once a boy chum OF mine became
afflicted with a large swelling or
abscess in his throat, which was
growing rapidly and threatening to
make breathing impossible,
"Dr. Y was called in. After eX-
amining the patient, he turned to the
mother with the command to bring
him a red-hot poker. AS he was
never questioned or disobeyed, the
woman hastened to heat one in the
kitchen fire.
when she brought it to the sick
room the doctor grabbed it and ad-
vanced to the bedside with the
cleaning point leveled at the boys
head.
"'Open your mouth, sir he COM
manded.
The boy did open his mouth to
emit terrified shriek-which broke
the abscess and saved his life.
Il have said that DR. Y was
never disobeyed, but | recollect now
one occasion on which family at
tempted to set his orders at defiance.
You see, he was really more intelIi-
gent than the run of way-out country
doctors OF those days. He went to
Holland for a year OF study when he
was young, and brought back some
advanced ideas, one of which was the
efficacy Of fresh air for patients.
you know how tight country peo-
pie close the windows OF a sick-room.
On the occasion in question the pa
tient was down with fever. Enter

windows, ordering that they be left

He turned his horse, drove back

proper development of the breast
arises from a state of inferior ma
urity Some women never reach the
perfected state, and this is due, in
many instances, from the present
mode oi living. Scdentary habits, re
naming confined indoors for long
periods, inaction, improper foods and
the hundred and one other minor
faults that can be placed at the door
Of the average woman, who thinks
only OF her health when it becomes
an alarming subject for consideration
You can see for yourself that the
first position on the bar, as pictured,
has many fine features for the de
yelopmcnt of many portions OF the
body and more particularly the chest
and breast. This exercise consists OF
grasping the pole firmly with the
hands and gradually raising the body
from the floor, until it hangs sus-
spcnded. For five minutes, if you can
bear it that long, allow your entire
weight to depend upon your arms,
then drop gently, rest and repeat.
The shoulders are set well back and
the body practically rigid, There is
nothing to prevent the lungs from
being expanded, and this very eX-
