THE VERMONT STATE BUILDING. This building was designed to a great extent to aid exhibitors in showing off the naturalresources of the State, which are chiefly agricultural. The building cost $15,000, and wasbuilt on a guarantee fund, the subscribers guaranteeing $100 each. The space allotted tothe building necessitated a small structure.
