Mr.

Bryan has a peace plan to which, he snys, twenty leadiug nations have given their countenance, but when it gets dowu to binding form it will be quite another matter. The president is handling the situation in the bureau of state with his usual taot. He knowa he cannot put the hobbles on Mr. Bryan's tongue, so he lets him loose to talk himself out while he fiiida a competent man to porform the important duties.

Graduates. Those 46 boys who graduated from the Vermont State School of Agriculture at Randolph are to take up agriculture in this state. This is the first class of farmer graduates from Vermont's first agricultural school. We believe these boys will make successful farmers in every sense of the word and their example will be followed by an ever-increasing number of farmers who know something of the theory of 6oils, crops, fertilizing and stock breeding. We believe this school is the greatest thing the state hBB ever undertaken for its agricultural interests.

Admission to the school has been made easy for those who really desire to learn farming. Boys above 16 years of age, who have completed the work of the common school, may" enter this institution at an extremely low yearly expense, and have opportunity to earn much of this amount. High school graduates complete the course in one year, but those having only common school education need two years in which to do the work.
