COMING TO LIS OWN.

Signs ere on the increase that Yer,
mont is at last coming to its own.
In it's news columns this week the
Monitor tells of gigantic new wa
ter power development headed by
Vermont men and in many ways to
benefit our state. This is a SID, OOO,-
600 project, the seventh largest IN
the United States and the largest in
New England. Not long ago we told
the story of another immense develop
ment of waterpower in this state that
was to represent millions of dollars
and our last legislature granted priv
ileges to still another power develop
ment scheme that involves several
million dollars. All of these projects
are more than mere idle fancy and
mean that greatly enlarged market
for the power will be necessary to
make these development plans sue.
cessful. This in turn means great
er industrial development in our little
commonwealth.
In our news columns also this week
is told the story Of a smaller power
development in or own county that
will be a material help to our local
growth. This is also being duplicat-
ed in other sections Of Vermont. An
other story of progress is told when
we read of the public meeting of citi
zens along the line of proposed new
railroad to be built in our state anC
to open what government authorities
tell US is the best asbestos deposit il
the United States. All this mean:
progress, advancement and develop
ment.
Besides these projects ready TO
public announcement are several othe
developments of our natural resource
that promise to add materially t
our wealth. At least one of tn
great RAILROADS of the continent h a!
awakened to the possibilities of Yer
mont as summer resort state and /
said to be making weIl-laid plans TO
the future Of this business. Alonj
with all this is Coming an agriculture
awakening which promises in a meas
ure at least to solve our rural prob

facturers at less expense, showing i'm !
mediate need of railroad to lessen
the expense OF Transportation He /
also showed that all these articles
made from asbestos could be manu-
featured here and all along the pro-
posed line if the products could be
transported at less expense. Mr..
Gallagher showed that the railroad
would be Of much value to the manu-
facturers and merchants along the

the proposed Rutland railroad. The

this railroad would be to Stowe and
the business men of his town.

Farming in New England.

President T. N. Vail of the Ameri
can Telephone Company, interviewed
on his 5000 acre farm at Lyndonville
says:
Farming in New England will be a
liveIier topic now that reciprocity has
been beaten. Since Western ranches
have been cut Up and need of fertiliz-
ers has arisen, New England can com
pete with the west. | did not at
tempt my agricultural school here un-
til 1910, when the farms here were
making money and it became easy to
interest people. Average boy will
find it easier to get a good living in
the country than in the city"
"The possibilities of New England ag-
riculture are too numerous to mention
believe we can even raise wheat in
competition with the West now. By
keeping cattle on small farms we may
not be able to lower the price of meat,
but can keep it from rising more.
Cost of living is largely due to the
way we live. We have to have the
best cuts and have the dealer deliver
the goods"
