BARRE's PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN.

1t is an ambitious campaign of pub
LEFTY on which the Barre Quarters
Manufacturers association has started
with view to bringing the merits OF
Barre granite more thoroughly to the at
tention of the public ambitious in the
initial cost to the promoters and am
bilious in the breadth of the field to be
covered. But it is felt that the results
win be well worth the cost and that the
influence of the campaign will be felt
over long period of years. Already
Barre granite has very strong standing
in the artistic memorial field, and the
products of the Barre quarries are to be
found from one corner of the continent
to the other, each memorial built of
matchless stone and executed with the
highest skill in the granite cutters and
carvers' occupation. Yet Barre is not
satisfied; Barre is not content to let the
business come alone by means of the
slower processes of publicity, such as
that obtained by the individual visit to
a cemetery for inspection Of stock and
designs. Barre wants faster results.
Therefore, the present campaign inaug
urated by the men aud firms that are in
terested in the great industry. The
name and fame of our granite win be
bound to receive great impetus there
from.

A FEW OF THE AMERICAN SCENIC
ATTRACTIONS.

For years the people of the United
States have been crossing the oceans in
an effort to find scenery, natural beauties
and the entertainment that comes there
from. They have, individually, spent
months each year in search after some
thing novel; and they have, collectively,
spent millions of dollars every year in
that same investigation. All the time
there were grand natural beauties at
their very door, so to speak, and there
was no need of crossing the oceans. We
refer more particularly to the national
parks of the United States, although the

schools, as a whole, have been steadi-
- improving in recent years. but
there are some sections where more
rapid advance is desired. One Ct the
serious problems is the small rural
ne2hborhoCd where there are one or
more pupils, but no; enough to form
a school. The parents object to the
children being carried far away to
school and the towns DO not feel that
they can support schools where there
are only two or three pupils. What
ever ones conviction on the subject
the outcome is reasonably certain to
be n compromise The old fashioned
district school when in the hands OF
competent teacher was the best
school ever invented fer a bright boy
or gill Even the best OF our graded
schools are not to be considered in
the same class with the frstclass dis
trict school for The brighter pupils.
For the dun or mediocre pupils,
however. the graded school is super
Tor. II is mighty difficult matter to
plan or carry out any school system
that is suited to the needs Of all
pvpils.

The potato crop in New England is
not proving to be the failure that was
reported earlier. Whether the pres.
ent high price will continue depends
though on the crop in other places.
Had Vermont farmers known last
spring that potatoes would be dollar

off their mortgages by raising po-
tatoes. For a term OF years now
potatoes have been very high once
every three CT four SEASONS. 1t might
pay to raise a crop every year SO as ia
