The Story of Our States By JONATHAN BRACE XIV.-VERMONT : ASzSHHEa8M TIFF t1on as''Tai of NslIElsAE-1NsN mont comes Nl S&SSf4AAS]AN from the WASV4glYN French "verts WSGS1gGW monts," or M AN green noun tains, and it was likewise the French who were probably the first white men to see those lofty landmarks which so appropri- ately give this state its name. This was in July, 1909, when Champlain made his memorable voyage up the lake now called : after him.
 The first permanent settle ment was made in 1724 at Brat tleboro, where the Massachusetts colony established a fort as a buffer against invasion from the north. The territory used was part of what was known as the Equivalent Lands" which were sold at public auction in Hart ford for about farthing an acre, the proceeds being donated to Yale college. Shortly after this, settlers pushed eastward from New York across Lake Champlain and westward from New Hampshire. This led to dis- putes between these two colo nies as to their boundaries. Un- der the leadership of Ethan Al. len New York's claims were re-
 sisted by local military force, which proudly called themselves :! "the Green Mountain Boys" It
 |; vas these same men who played such 8 brilliant part during the Revolution.
 h 1777 formal Constitution for the state was adopted and Vermonters are proud of the fact : that theirs was the first of the : states to prohibit slavery by constitutional provision. For a number of years Vermont re- mained as separate republic,
 : but in 1791 1t was admitted to
 the Union as the first addition to
 !: the original thirteen states.
 In size Vermont has 9,564
 square miles, and It's congress

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET
Edgerton, Wis, Dec. 9. l921.

EugeFCOn, WIS.,, Dec. y, lSZI.
Reports from the northern sections
of the state inform us that Smith &
Son of Evansville. representing the
We'll interests, have made trip to
Vernon county and bought few crops
of tobacco. Some were picked up also
in the Soldiers Grove section. Not a
large acreage was taken. The inform
ation received at this office has it that
the price climbed to 25c. The farmers
up there, however, did not show much
eagerness in selling, as they are hoping
for competitive buying later on, ex-
pecting the larger operations to come
In, stimulating the demand.
Nobody is advised as to the probable
lty of the move, nor as to the time
when it may start. That a buying
movement is coming some time, is
pretty well understood, but that it will
take on any proportions until after the
crop is stripped and ready in the bun
die is not considered likely by leading
representatives of the larger tobacco
interests here.
That means thas large movement
to take the 1921 ieaf is not expected
until after the holidays. At the pres
ent time theroads throughout the to-
odSSO JSIritry up QOrIn are IN Sucn
condition that any buyer is reluctant to
start out, and even in the southern sec
ton they are anything but inviting.
The general mildness of the weather
has been very favorable for the work
of stripping. 1t has been possible to
do most of the work in the sheds, saw
ing time and speeding the work. That
the growers who are taking pains to
clean out their crops in the process of
bundling viii find that it has paid them
well to put on this extra work, there is
every reason to believe.
The quantity Of BIS held in the state
is large, and any further piling up Of
this type is not stimulating to the Wis
consin leaf movement as q whole. Quail
ity, not quantiy,is the general cry.
The northern growers who have been
given first consideration in what little
buying has been done this year should
set an example Of the very best kind
of handling, even though it may cost
a little extra to have it done The
growers IN the best sections OF the
southern fields are making an earnest
effort at correct handling, we are In
formed, which is good news to every
body concerned.
