Issued from the BUREAU OF PUBLICITY of the Department of State F-J-: CAPITAL CITY PRESS MONTPELIER VT ;>- ^ is / /7a- To you who feel, with the coming of warm June days, a recurrence of primitive longing to recline on the green bosom of Earth, shaded and sheltered by rustling, leafy boughs, soothed by the murmur of soft breezes and lulled by the rippling tinkle of silver streams this lE^mh Poofe of "Vermont is presented, to suggest how the Green Mountain State may meet your desires, in the hope that you may essay a visit, expand with the strength of the breezes that blow from the hills, repose in the quiet of the valleys and rejuvenate in the peace that abides in the shadow of the mountains. tKfje ^lapsrounb of tfie Continent. WHEN the moisture laden winds with healing in their wings, sweeping inland from their wide surge over the North Atlan- tic, encounter their first obstacle, the mountain range that divides Vermont, they distill to earth a portion of their aqueous burden, and this stimulates and sustains the verdure of the hills which from their first discovery have given Vermont its name, the Green Mountain State, Verd Mont. Few sections of the country are so well watered as Vermont. Lying between Lake Champlain and the Connecticut River, it is traversed by hun- dreds of streams, large and small, and dotted with innumerable lakes and ponds. Yet its altitude is such, its drainage to the valleys so perfect, that the air is dry rather than surcharged with moistm-e. Altitude, atmosphere, climatic conditions, the absence of congested centers of population, combine to make Vermont one of the most healthful sections of the country. No portion of the United States of equal area has so few cases of tuberculosis as Grand Isle county, that island section of Lake Champlain, swept by the mild breezes that continually blow across the lake. The early history of Montpelier, the capital, shows an average death rate, including accidents and infant mortality, of one in four hundred per year. Vermont puts forth no claim as a universal sanitarium, but it is so elevated, watered and aerated that its healthful conditions must command attention. Most visitors who have written anything about the State have used such adulatory terms as to make what they have WTitten seem like exaggeration. IVom Henry Ward Beecher to Ambassador James Bryce superlatives have been squandered in efforts to depict the natural beauties of the State, and Ver- monters, believing that they live in the finest country on earth, have accepted and echoed such statements. A simple description of the natural beauties of the State is sufficient intro- duction, but only an actual visit can afford a thorough appreciation of them. The great diversity of physical features, the combination of mountain, valley, forest, lake and stream, the close juxtaposition of varied attractions, the continually changing character of the scenery, opportunities for all the [5] amusements a sojourn in the country can be expected to furnish, make Ver- mont attractive and stir visitors to sound her praises. Tradition, history and romance encircle this first of the states to be added to the original thirteen, and about no section do they cluster more closely than Lake Champlain. Discovered by the great French explorer, missionary and warrior, it has been the scene of many historic incidents. Rock Dunder, where Indians of the Iroquois federation used to meet in council; Isle La Motte where the shrine of St. Anne was established; Four Brothers island where the sea gulls from New York harbor build their nests and rear their young; Valcour bay, where the first American fleet, commanded by Benedict Arnold, met the British; Valcour Island, where the first Socialist colony in the country was established; the site of Fort Cassin at the mouth of Otter Creek; the ruins of Fort Ticonderoga on the New York side; the Sand Bar bridge; the railway that makes its way north by spanning the intervals between the islands; the great Back Bay with its enticing opportunities for anglers; and the soft and pleasing scenery about Grand Isle combine to make up the attractions about the lake. Broad bosomed Champlain, beautiful, charming, interesting, has rivals for favor. Willoughby lake, shaded by rugged mountains and reminding one of the famed lochs of Scotland; Caspian lake with its summer colony; Bomo- seen, a place of resort from early times; Memphremagog stretching far into Canada in the northeastern corner, all are charming and interesting. Scat- tered over all portions of the State are other smaller lakes that add to the beauty of the scenery and the enjoyment of visitors. In the little town of Woodbury are thirty ponds ranging from three to three hundred acres in area. All these are fed by springs. No stream flows into the town, but the volume of water produced by these ponds is so great that a considerable water power is developed on the streams that flow from them. Such spring-fed ponds are frequent and the abundance of springs pro- vides a pure and plentiful supply of water. Several cities and villages draw their public supplies from a system of springs and there is hardly a farm house that has not running water supplied from a spring a few rods away, on some elevation where it is secure from contamination. Close to the tops of the highest mountains gush forth waters of coldness and purity, grateful to the traveler and relieving him of the burden of carrjdng some of the supplies usually necessary on a mountain trip. Near the top of Mount Mansfield is a spring whose waters, on analysis, prove to be almost a pure naturally distilled water. Medicinal springs are also numerous in many parts of the State and afford a cure for many diseases. Analysis shows some of them to closely resemble some of the famous German spas, while others differ little from such EngUsh [6] springs as those at Harrowgate or the Ballcastle and Castlemain springs in Ireland. From some of these springs Epsom salts were made in the early days, but the manufacture was abandoned because of the small profit to be de- rived. In one town are half a dozen springs, of different medicinal qualities, l3dng in a semicircle only a few rods across. Some of these springs were much visited by Southerners before the Civil War but since that time no effort has been made to establish a health resort at any of them. No mountain peaks rear their heads in rugged, barren grandeur as in the Rockies or in such imposing loftiness as the Presidential range, but all about are graceful, green clad elevations, accessible without the aid of a cog wheel railway, from which may be seen a wonderful panoramic combination of wilder- ness and civilization. Mansfield, the highest peak, 4369 feet above the sea, has a well equipped hotel at the summit and is easily climbed by carriage or on foot. Looking west the eye roams over an expanse of forest, over a broad and fertile valley divided by the sinuous Winooski, on to Burlington and its green slopes, to Lake Champlain dotted with many islands, and further in the blue distance the Adirondacks range before the vision. Travelers have said that the view from the summit of Mansfield presents a more varied and attractive combination of scenery than they have discovered in this country or abroad. So, too, they have said that sunset on Lake Cham- plain, viewed from Battery Park in BurUngton, surpasses anything in Switzer- land. Development of the outdoor spirit among Americans in recent years is bringing a better appreciation of the natural beauties of our own country. Mansfield is reached by a regular stage line in siunmer. Camel's Hump (Le Lion Couchant), a near neighbor and but little lower, must be climbed on foot, but an easy trail leads to the summit. No hotel has been erected there, but a club of public spirited gentlemen maintains a shelter on the summit, with a caretaker in charge, where the visitor may buy his meals or have the use of culinary utensils to provide his own. Ascutney overlooks the Connecticut valley, affording a wonderful view to the north and far into Massachusetts to the south. Directly across the river is the famous Cornish, N. H., summer colony of artists and writers. The old trail to the summit has been kept open by an association of enthusiasts, and a stone house has been erected, the use of which is free to all visitors, the only obligation being that they will provide as much wood and kindling as they use and will leave the house and its furnishings in proper condition. There is no lock on the door and no injury has ever been perpetrated by visitors. Killington and Pico in the west. Jay Peak in the north, AVantastiquet and Equinox in the south, and half a hundred others of varying elevations, all [71 have their charms and points of interest, varying the appearance of the land- scape and furnishing extensive views for those who care to climb to their summits. The Green Mountain Club, organized last year by some prominent people in the State, plans to make the various peaks more accessible and to furnish shelter and accommodations such as visitors may require. It proposes to cut a trail along the summits of the Green Mountain range which traverses the State from north to south. The State is entering on a policy of forest reserves which is being aided by private individuals, and some of these are on the mountain summits, set aside under conditions that will keep them forever free from the devastation of the lumberman's axe. The Hon. Joseph Battell of Middlebury, the largest individual land owner in the State, has given to the public the summit of Mount Ellen in Lincoln and several hundred acres at the top of Camel's Hump, while the Hon. M. J. Hapgood has made a similar gift of lands on Mount Bromley in Peru. These lands will be in charge of the State forester and this insures that so much at least of the mountains of Vermont will be kept green. A limestone formation runs through a large part of the State and water percolating under ground has formed many caverns of varying sizes. None of them equals Luray or the Mammoth cave and few have been thoroughly explored. Ethan Allen's cave by the side of Lake Dunmore, on the side of Mount Moosealamoo is of greatest historic interest. In the northeastern sec- tion, in Clarendon, Plymouth, Danby and other towns, are large caverns with chambers of varying sizes, stalactites hanging from the roof and stalagmites rising to meet them, while in one is the expected underground stream with the conventional eyeless fish. Some of these caverns were partly explored early in the last century, but the result of the exploration has been generally forgotten and in many cases the openings are now concealed by a growth of bushes, so that they remain today a terra incognita, awaiting the visits of the curious and venturesome. There are other natural curiosities, such as the frozen well in Brandon, producing ice the year around, balanced rocks of several tons weight in several places, a natural stone bridge across the Winooski and the Lamoille, the gorge at Middlesex through which were drained the waters of a glacial lake, and the gorge at Winooski, where some of the rocks exposed are said by geologists to be the oldest rocks on earth's surface, older than those of the Laurentian hills; and prominent traces of Indian occupancy in the paintings on the rocks at Bellows Falls, the rude sculptures at Brattleboro and the mounds in the Ox- Bow at Newbury. [8] Champlain and the larger lakes afford ample opportunities for boating and there are yacht clubs at Burlington and Newport with large membership and commodious club houses, supporting a considerable fleet, while motor boats ply the ponds and streams in all sections. Damming the Connecticut near Brattleboro has created a lake twenty miles long, extending up the stream almost to Bellows Falls. Already a good sized fleet of various kinds of craft has been created and a flourishing boat club established. Abimdant opportunities for pleasant and exciting canoe trips may be found and about the lakes are frequent sandy beaches where bathing may be enjoyed At all the important resorts golf links have been laid out and some of the best links in the country may be found in Vermont. Several of the leading hotels employ golf instructors during the summer and the grounds of private clubs are freely opened to summer guests. The fishing season for trout opens in the streams on April 15 and in the ponds on May 1. The bass season opens June 15, affording the fish time to finish their duties on the spawning beds and seek their summer feeding grounds. Vermont ponds and streams are natural trout water and some of the stories told of the catching of fish by early settlers are almost unbelievable. As in other States various causes have operated to deplete the supply of fish to some extent, but a plentiful restocking is gradually going on, so that there is probably as good fishing to be found in Vermont today as in any other State, though the man who knows will not expect to find this in public waters close by the larger villages. The United States government maintains two trout hatcheries in the State, each of which produces several million fry, and the State also has a hatchery and m addition to its product purchases every year a large number of fry for stocking public waters. Brook trout are caught almost everywhere, in some streams apparently too small to afford them room to turn around, and intelhgent and effective efforts are being made to keep up the supply. With the cutting off of the forests the water of manj^ streams has become too warm to afford a proper abode for this prince of fishes, and there the gorgeous hued rainbow and the gamy steelhead from the west have been introduced. The German brown trout, much resembling the original speckled trout, has also been planted in some waters with good results. Land locked salmon, the ouananiche of Cana- dian waters, has been placed in Caspian lake and some large specimens have been taken there. Hundreds of thousands of fry and fingeriings are placed in public waters every year and many more in private preserves. This, with an efficient warden service, under the expert supervision of Mr. John W. Titcomb, [9] for several years connected with the national bureau of fisheries, is resulting in a gradual restoration of good fishing. This is also promoted by the natural purity of the waters and their general freedom from contamination by the refuse from manufacturing establishments that pollutes the waters of many states and makes it impossible for game fish to Uve in them. No effort has been made to propagate the black bass artificially, as all fish culturists have found it very difficult, but some of the smaller ponds, where large trout with cannabalistic tendencies were eating up the smaller ones, have been stocked with this hardy fish and they have thrived remarkably well. For many years Dog pond in Woodbury held the record for the largest small mouth black bass caught in the country and the record may be good today. Probably no eastern water affords better bass fishing than the Great Back Bay of Lake Champlain. It is an ideal breeding and feeding ground and for years seining has been prohibited in the lake, so the bass, sturdy fish and well able to care for themselves, maintain their numbers and promise a con- tinuance of sport for many years to come. Arrangements are being made for the artificial propagation of sturgeon, of which there are now a considerable number in Lake Champlain. These fish, weighing sometimes 100 pounds or more, are not easily taken with ordi- nary tackle and can hardly be classed as game fish. Much so-called Russian caviare is made from American sturgeon roe. The United States government maintains at Swanton a hatchery for wall- eyed pike, or pike perch, and the fry of these is distributed by the miUion in public waters not inhabited by trout. They reach a weight of several pounds in a few years, and while not accounted a game fish are always welcome on the table. Campers and tourists seeking an addition to their menu will find in all parts of the State an abundance of yellow perch, always easily caught and one of the most toothsome of fresh water fishes when properly dressed. Perch weighing a pound and a haK are frequently taken in the larger lakes, but else- where they run little above half to three quarters of a pound. The forests furnish a variety of sport for the hunter. Deer are taken by the hundred every season. Having been protected for twenty years they have become comparatively tame, and every year are seen in the streets of villages and cities. Some are shot every year"within the city limits of Montpelier, the capital. Hunting of moose and caribou is prohibited. There is a herd of moose in Essex county steadily growing in size. As the moose is a migratory animal the hunting of it will probably be permitted in a few years. Only occasionally have any caribou been seen in the State for years. [10] Gray squirrels are numerous in years when nuts are plenty and hares and rabbits afford good sport. Partridge and woodcock are as plentiful as can be expected in a thickly settled country. Wild duck and geese are taken in large numbers during the season of flight and snipe and plover are plentiful. English pheasants and capercailzie, which have been placed in some coverts, are protected until 1913 when they are expected to furnish good shooting. The necessity for going over or around so many hills has given Vermont a large highway mileage in proportion to its area. Maintenance imposes a heavy burden on the small towns, where in some cases road mileage is out of all proportion to area or population, and some of the highways there are not ' kept up as they should be. The State, by extending financial aid and increas- ing the authority of its highway commissioner, is gradually taking over more of the burden of maintenance. Already the main highways are in excellent condition, and the Munsey automobile tourists last year declared that the roads of Vermont were as good as those of any states through which they passed. More than a million dollars will be spent on the highways of the State this year. This fund is distributed by the State highway commissioner and county supervisors in accordance with improved modern methods. These and other officials work so far as possible with automobilists and officials of the automobile club, and without burdening the State with debt the highways are being placed in excellent condition. Macadam is used in places where traffic is heavy enough to require it, and in the country districts a high quaUty of gravel road is constructed. Many of the cities use some tar compound to surface their roads and keep down the dust, while treatment with crude oil has been very effective on dirt roads. Automobilists receive reciprocal courtesies and privileges, they find here good roads, hotels equal to any in the country in quality if not in size that make their interests a special care, and State oflBcials who have no disposition to impose upon them any restrictions beyond those of the statute, which auto- mobifists admit are reasonable and satisfactory. The Munsey automobile tourists passed through the State last year and were greatly pleased with the treatment they received, and the Glidden Reciprocity tourists will travel almost the entire length of the State this season. To the tourist, whether by automobile, on foot, by carriage or train, to the camper, the fisherman or the hunter, the mountain climber, the scientist, the seeker for natural curiosities, the artist and the photographer Vermont offers wondrous scenery, clear air, pure water, healthful conditions, a delight- fully equable climate, good roads, and opportunities for varied amusements. At Brattleboro, Bellows Falls, White River Junction, Woodstock, Mont- pelier, Waterbury, Burlington, Swanton, St. Albans, Rutland, Lake Bomoseen, [11] Manchester, Bennington and other places are large and commodious hotels making special provision for summer guests. Smaller and less pretentious resorts are scattered about the State, there are numerous camps along the lake shores, which may be leased for the season or for a few weeks, and boarding houses that furnish ideal summer accommodations, while many private houses are opened for a few visitors. First class train accommodations enable one to reach all the more import- ant points in Vermont with ease and comfort, while branch lines and a dozen or more lines of electric road make a large part of the State readily accessible. The Boston and Maine railroad follows the course of the Connecticut river on the eastern side, with a branch division reaching across the State; the Central Vermont traverses the central portion and the New England States Limited over its line is one of the finest trains running out of Boston. The Rutland road connects with Boston trains at Bellows Falls and with the Delaware and Hudson and New York Central at Rutland, running south to Bennington and through Massachusetts and north through the islands of Lake Champlain to Montreal. These three great systems with their branch lines, and the other roads that enter the State for a few miles at points not otherwise covered make all the more desirable resorts of Vermont easy of access. Fully detailed information as to the best trains and most convenient means of reaching any desired point will be furnished to any one who will address, GUY W. BAILEY, Secretary of State, Essex Junction, Vt. [12] Publicitp JBepartment. Intending visitors who desire copies of the automobile laws or the fish and game laws, may secure them by applying to the address given above, in person or by letter or telephone. It is the purpose of this bureau to furnish all the information it can to those who desire it and all inquiries will be answered as fully as its information and resources will permit. The myriad attractions, the countless spots of scenic beauty and natural grandeur and historic interest scattered through 246 towns cannot be even briefly mentioned in such a publication as this, but short reference to the various counties will afford something of desirable information and a sugges- tion where more may be obtained. ^tiliigon Countp. Extending fifty miles or so along the shore of Lake Champlain, traversed by Otter Creek, the largest stream in the State, Addison county contains Ver- gennes, the oldest and for a long time the only city in the State, a charming old-fashioned town. The falls of the Otter is one of the finest water \aews of the State. At Vergennes is the State agricultural school, at Middlebury the college of that name, founded at the beginning of the last century and one of the early co-educational institutions of learning. Ferrisburgh was the home of Rowland Robinson, author of the famous "Uncle 'Lisha' " stories and the old farm house was one of the stations of the underground railroad by means of which escaping negro slaves were aided to reach Canada. At Wej^bridge is the government farm for breeding Morgan horses, a type that originated in Vermont and is specially desirable for road work and cavalry purposes. Chimney Point on the lake shore is a point of historic interest and Crown Point and the ruins of Fort Ticonderoga on the New York shore draw many visitors every season. Lake Dunmore, well-known to all readers of Thompson's Green Mountain Boys, is a beautiful expanse of water where lake trout of large size abound. On its shore is a modern, well conducted hotel with numerous cottages and smaller places of resort. [13] Penninston Countp. Whether the battle of Bennington, one of the most important engagements of the revolutionary period, was fought on Vermont or New York soil is still a matter of dispute among historians. Vermonters are so well assured of the correctness of their claim that they have erected at Bennington a monument in commemoration of the battle, a magnificent granite shaft. If future investiga- tion and new evidence shall establish the claim of New York to have been the scene of that fight, it cannot rob Vermont of the pride it has in the achievement of her sons who participated in the battle. At Peru is the only remaining toll road in the State, and the famous hotel with a fireplace on the veranda. Manchester with its broad and shaded streets, nestling under the shadow of Equinox Mountain, has been a well known summer resort for years and has produced a whole family of prominent hotel men. The Battenkill river is one of the best fishing grounds in the east and there is at Manchester a manufacturer of some of the finest fishing rods and flies produced in the country. Bennington is the home of Gen. J. G. McCullough, former governor of the State, one of the romantic figures in the early days of California, and among its summer visitors is Robert Lincoln. Well wooded, with many mountains and streams and numerous hotels and other places of entertainment, easy of access from the large cities, Benning- ton county's small towns and big villages demand favorable consideration. [14] Calebonia Countp. This section derives its name from the fact that the larger early settle- ments were made by Scotchmen. It borders for several miles on the Con- necticut River and there is soon to be constructed at the Fifteen Mile Falls a water power that will produce 50,000 or more of horse power. The company that controls it will expend about $8,000,000 on the work. This will create an artificial lake covering hundreds of acres. St. Johnsbury, the largest town, contains the great Fairbanks scale works whose products go all over the world, the Athenaeum in which is a great painting of the grand canon, the Fairbanks museum filled with valuable curiosities from all parts of the world and many historic relics. Speedwell Farms at Lyndonville is the home of Theodore N. Vail, presi- dent of the American Bell Telephone Company and the Western Union Tele- graph Company. He has established there an industrial and agricultural school that is crowded to its full capacity. Danville, once the seat of the State government, is a delightful old town, while Hardwick, which is developing as a granite manufacturing center, is a modern and hustling community. Through a portion of this county runs the old Hazen road, built in 1779 as a military route by General Hazen and now used as a State highway. The town of Wheelock is owned by Dartmouth college, the land having been granted for educational purposes, in 1785, and was named for the Rev. John Wheelock who was at that time president of the college. One of the government's trout hatcheries is located at St. Johnsbury. [15] Cljittenben Countp. Fort Ethan Allen, a United States military post for cavalry, is one of the most frequently visited points in this section. The name of Allen is closely 'connected with the county for that family of early Vermont patriots owned arge tracts about the lake and it was through the influence of Ira Allen and his gifts of land that the State University was located at Burhngton. Situated on an eminence above the city, it is one of the most attractive places for an educational institution in the entire east and the summer school of languages, science and music is always well attended. Burlington, the largest city of the State, is "beautiful for situation," bordering on the shore of the picturesque lake, close by that natural wonder, the Winooski Gorge, where the rocks rise a hundred feet above the narrow river; close by Mallets Bay, a picturesque spot where a boys' summer school is located, where there is excellent fishing and splendid facilities for bathing; a New England village in the soft greenness of its shaded streets; a modern city in the variety and extent of its commerce and manu- factures; through its railroad and steamboat connections affording opportuni- ties for reaching with ease any portion of the State and containing within its own borders many bits of beauty. Two rivers run through the county, the Winooski and the Lamoille, affording good fishing along their course and at their mouths. On the Lamoille at Milton the International Paper Company has a large mill. Lake Iroquois in Hinesburgh is a charming and popular resort. At Shelburne is the splendid country estate of Dr. W. Seward Webb of New York, and many handsome and substantial residences are scattered through the valleys. The section is largely composed of fertile valleys watered by many streams, and from the higher portions wondrous views are had of the great lake and the mountains away to the eastward. It is a fertile farming country, and the most valuable apple orchard in New England is in the town of Charlotte. Its wonderful views of mountain, lake and stream, of smoothly cultivated land and the wildness of nature, the ease with which noted points may be reached, the opportunities for fishing in the streams and for yachting, bathing and fishing in the lake make this one of the favored portions of Vermont. [16] €s(gex Countp. Situated in the northeast corner, the scene of great lumbering operations, many of its towns untraversed by a raih*oad, this county contains more of real wilderness than any other. Its eastern limit is bounded by the upper reaches of the Connecticut River, and down that stream the great lumber companies send every year millions of feet of lumber taken from its extensive forests. Three considerable rivers and numerous small streams flow through the county. Valuable mineral springs are found in the town of Brunswick. The lakes and streams abound with fish and the woods with deer, so that this is perhaps the most attractive section of the State for the sportsman. The only known herd of moose in Vermont Uves in Essex county. Island Pond, the principal village, is a division headquarters of the Grand Trunk railway and has developed some manufacturing industries aside from lumbering, which is the main business of the people. [17] Jf ranfeUn Countp. Advantages of natural location, business enterprise and industrial activity have combined to make Franklin one of most pleasing and prosperous of the counties of the State. Reaching to the Canadian line, indented by Missisquoi bay, Maquam bay and the Great Back Bay, traversed by the Missisquoi and Lamoille Rivers and many smaller streams, its agricultural interests developed to an enviable state of excellence and its manufacturing possibilities largely realized, this county ranks with the most favored portions of the state in pro- ductiveness, progressiveness and prosperity. Along the lake shore are numerous resorts where the summer visitor may find the best of entertainment, while the lake itself, the streams flowing into it, and the small ponds not far away will furnish fishing in plenty of the highest quality. Lake Carmi or Silver Lake in Franklin draws many visitors every year, St. Albans, the principal city, is one of the most pleasing to visitors in its natural attractiveness and well kept appearance, its charming views, hand- some residences and wide, shaded streets. Here is the headquarters of the Central Vermont railway and important manufacturing industries. Close by^ easily reached by trolley car, is St. Albans Bay, with its fleet of yachts and motor boats. This is the town that Henry Ward Beecher characterized as having "a greater variety of scenic beauty than any other that I can remember in America." Richford and Enosburg are important manufacturing towns and Missis- quoi Park and springs in Highgate are places of popular resort. [18] (jlranti Sflile Countp. This smallest of the counties is composed of five towns, four on three of the largest islands of Lake Champlain and the fifth on the northern mainland. The streams are small and the country generally level. Bridges connect the islands with each other and the main land and the firmly packed roads winding close by curving shores and smooth sandy beaches offer some of the most en- ticing drives to be found in the State. Within easy reach of the best of lake fishing and easily reached by the Rutland railroad, which has bridged the water across the county, Grand Isle presents many attractions. This is the finest apple growing section of Vermont. Soil, climate and water supply exist in just the proper proportion for the production of high class fruit. Modern and scientific methods are applied by the orchardists and more than one crop is sold on the trees for several thousand dollars. Though not so large as some of the apples grown in the west under irrigation, the Ver- mont product surpasses them in flavor, and buyers from New York visit Grand Isle every season to secure the pick of the crop. [19] HamoiUc Countp. This is one of the smaller and inland sections, with railroad connections to the east and west, smooth and sandy in some sections, rocky and mountain- ous in others, containing some of the best farms in the State, granite, asbestos and talc deposits and a natural paint mine. It is the seat of some important industries, the best known being that of handling of green calf skins, devel- oped at Hyde Park by Carrol S. Page, former governor and now United States Senator. This is the largest industry of the kind in the world and its business extends all over the world. The building of a municipal dam at Morrisville has created an artificial lake several miles in extent which is widely used for boating and provides ex- cellent fishing. Stowe is one of the most charming of Vermont villages, the terminus of the electric road connecting with the Central Vermont at Waterbury, and is the point of departure for climbing Mount Mansfield. Boating, bathing and fishing are afforded by the numerous lakes and streams and good hunting may be had in its season. [20] 0vanQt Countp. Lying along the Connecticut River, in the eastern part of the State, Orange county contains some spots of rare beauty and points of historic interest. Its intervales along the river are some of the best of farming land and present scenes of peaceful quietude and there is little of wild and rugged scenery within its borders. Some of the earliest settlements on the eastern side of the State were made in this county and many traces of Indian occupancy have been found in Newbury. On the side of Wright's Mountain in Bradford is a cave called the Devil's Den, in which are several apartments and which is believed to have been used in early times as a human habitation. In this town were made the first school globes ever manufactured. Fairlee was the home of Samuel Morey, who ran a steamboat on Fairlee pond, now Lake Morey, a year or two before Fulton's Clermont was built. Chagrined at the advantage gained by Fulton, dishonestly, as he believed, he sunk his boat in the lake and it has never been recovered. Strafford was the home of Justin S. Morrill, for many years United States Senator. It contains a large quantity of copper ore which has been worked with varying degrees of success since 1793. Valuable mineral springs in Williamstown have been celebrated for more than half a century. Lake Morey has afforded good fishing for many years and several cottages and hotels have been erected on its borders, while smaller lakes offer good opportunities and plenty of accommodations may be found. [21] 0tltan^ Countp. This is a county of lakes. Memphremagog, stretching far into Canada, dotted with many islands, whitened with many sails of pleasm-e boats and traversed daily by a handsome and commodious steamer, takes precedence. At Newport, on the lake shore, is the Memphremagog yacht club which is developing an interest in water sports. Willoughby lake in Westmore, guarded by Mount Pisgah and Mount Hor, has more of rugged grandeur. Seymour lake in Morgan and Pensioners pond in Charleston are large and beautiful bodies of water. Caspian lake in Greens- boro is one of the finest fishing grounds in the State and is surrounded by a large number of expensive summer cottages. Long pond in Glover draws many visitors every season. There are first class hotel accommodations at Newport and Barton and travelers will have little trouble in securing accommodations in the smaller towns. Newport is the home of G. H. Prouty, former governor, and the lumber company in which he is interested is one of the largest in New England. In Derby, just across the lake, lives Josiah Grout, also an ex-governor. Newport is the head of the customs district of Memphremagog and a handsome govern- ment building has been erected there. [22] i^utlanb Countp. The most populous county in the State also possesses some of the greatest attractions. Pico, Killington and Shrewsbury are mountain peaks that tower high above the surrounding country, and smaller elevations are often visited by lovers of beauty. Lake Bomoseen in Castleton covers 15,000 acres and is surrounded by palatial hotels and handsome cottages. Glen and Benson lakes in the same town are interesting resorts. Lake St. Catherine in Poultney and Wells covers more than 2,000 acres. Both this and Bomoseen are large enough to afford ample opportunity for boating as well as excellent fishing. The forests are abundantly stocked with game. It was in Rutland county that a small herd of deer was placed thirty years ago, which has increased to the large number that roam the forests of the State today. At Sudbury is Hyde Manor, one of the popular resorts of the State . Medicinal springs in Clarendon became famous for their cures early in the last century and still maintain their reputation. The first medical college in the State was established at Castleton and the old buildings now form a part of the Castleton normal school. At Rutland are manufactured the famous Howe scales. Governor John A. Mead is president of the Howe Scale Company. The Vermont Marble Company at Proctor, founded by Senator Redfield Proctor and now managed by his son, Ex-Governor Fletcher D. Proctor, is the largest concern of its kind in the country. In Rutland is also a large manufactory of maple sugar makers ' tools and apparatus, and in Poultney and Pawlet are extensive slate quarries producing some of the best slate manufactured. [23] Wai^inQton Countp. Here is Montpelier, the State capital, shaded, quiet, with handsome public buildings and the financial center of the State; Northfield, the site of Norwich University, a military school second only to West Point in the estimation of the war department; Barre, the center of the granite manufacturing indus- try of the country; Waterbury, the home of one of the best managed hos- pitals for the insane in the country. The Winooski river traverses the county from east to west and this with its numerous branches, with the addition of the Dog river just below Montpelier and two rivers that join it at Waterbury, is one of the principal streams of the State and furnishes an abundance of water power used in producing electric power, while on the Mad river are two power plants. In Woodbury, with its thirty ponds, is one of the finest places for a summer outing to be found in the State, and there are numerous other ponds and many streams that invite and reward the angler. Camel's Hump is reached by an easy climb from Waterbury or Duxbury and^the shelter at the summit is now open for visitors. The Mayor of Montpelier is secretary of the Automobile Club of Vermont and visiting motorists will receive every attention. First class highways extend through the county providing many pleasant drives, and excellent hotels furnish accommodations for the traveler. This section is reached by the Boston & Maine and Central Vermont railroads, and every desirable place in the county may be easily reached over good roads. [24] ^inbijam Countp. Lying next the Massachusetts border, easily reached from the great cities, with many natural and artificial attractions, this is one of the most desirable counties in the State for the summer visitor. Brattleboro, the principal town, lies close beside the magnificent lake created by the building of a power dam a few miles below, and boating on the lake has developed marvelously since the lake came into being. It is the home of the great Estey organ factory, of the Brattleboro Re- treat for the treatment of the insane and there will soon be completed there the Austine institution for the care of the deaf, dumb, bUnd and feeble-minded. It is a handsome New England village, larger than some Vermont cities, with public spirited citizens and the home of many men of prominence. The families of President Taft and of Eugene Field went from Windham county. Guilford, in the earlier part of the last century,was the largest town in the State and for a short time was an independent republic. Brattleboro is notable among collectors for the fact that some of the earliest postage stamps were issued there, and a Brattleboro stamp today is worth a large sum. From the summit of Wantastiquet mountain there is a wide view of Ver- mont scenery to the north and a broad expanse of mountain and valley in Massachusetts to the south. A well organized fish and game club keeps the streams and lakes well filled and the coverts well stocked, so the sportsman may find plenty to attract and amuse him,while those who seek merely the quiet recreations of country life will suffer from no lack of opportunities. [25] Wint^ov Countp. If this county is noted for containing the town with the smallest population of any in the State, it has other and different demands on attention. Royalton is of historic interest, as the town raided and burned by Indians from Canada in 1780, and a granite monument on the common commemorates that fact. In Sharon is a monument erected by the Mormons to the memory of Joseph Smith, their prophet, on the site of the prophet's birthplace. Windsor, the site of the State prison, maintains a large and important machine manufacturing industry, and is the home of Maxwell Evarts, son of the former United States Senator from New York, while j ust across the Connec- ticut river, in New Hampshire,, is a notable colony of writers, artists and sculp- tors. Woodstock has become noted as a summer and winter resort. It is a hand- some, well kept village, with beautiful surroundings. The park is the center of the village and duphcates in its shape and dimensions the famous Great Eastern. The White river, draining a large part of the county, joins the Connecticut at White River Junction, the most important railway point in the State. Just across the river from Norwich is Dartmouth college and at Ludlow is the Black River Academy. Extensive woolen manufactm-es are carried on along the Ottaquechee river and in one of the mills at Bridgewater is manufactured some of the most expensive cloth turned out in the country. The diversified character of the scenery, the many forms of natural beauty, the ease with which it can be reached and the opportunities and attractions it offers to the sportsman and the lover of nature make this one of the most in- teresting sections of the State.

Two Otis electric elevators and all modern equipment is provided as is the case throughout the hotel. The lobby is luxuriously furnished. The Hotel Ver- mont and its appointments, service and management will please you. The roof of Hotel Vermont is one of the highest elevations in the region round about, afTording a high-hill view of this wondrous lake and mountain country. Spa- cious roofed lounging rooms with outside spaces tiled and canopied, and parapet openings fitted with wrought iron grille work, afford a quiet, restful retreat. Burlington is world-famed for its sunsets and mountain scenery. But it has a new altitude in this roof garden. The magnificent distances up and down [38] Lake Champlain, the boldness of the Adirondacks in the West, and the outUnes of the Green Mountains with Mount Mansfiekl and Camel's Humps so near at hand — these are an indeUble charm. One has not seen the mountains and lake until he has seen them in summer and winter, and Hotel Vermont, as a year- round hostelry, is unsurpassed in all this northern country.
