coming Of future generations. We are
glad that the University of Vermont is
to he one Of the chief instrumentalitics
| in the improvement of agricultural re- !
sources and farm conditions throughout |
| the state that will guarantee a life to |
rural Vermont equal in opportunity. COM
| fort, happiness ana service TO the best |
that is now the exclusive property of our
cities.
The college of agriculture is, however, !
mot our only outlet for extra educational |
service to the state. The peculiar
physical contour of Vermont is a con |
stant challenge to it's people to make
! it great manufacturing state. The |
university, through its college of on
Eincerlng, may prepare the bright, sturdy
young manhood Of Vermont to harness
our hills and birdie our streams that they !
may be saved from continued existence
of that which now amounts to little moro
than wicked waste. The transportation
problem differs in different States but
IuJr departments of civl and electrical
engineering are fitted a. no other agencies
can he. to cooperate with our very
! efficient highway commissioner. Nh.
lGatcs. and with those Interested in
prospective railway and trolley lines to
assist I'm the solution Of the problem
