THERE seems to be q probability
that the prices charged by the first
class hotels in the cities will soon be
reduced. A change of this kind has
long been desirable, and is especially
80 at present. New York is agitating
the matter, and it is believed the
landlords will unite in striking for
lower prices. A dininution of hotel
prices in that city would be sure to be
followed by a similar reduction
throughout the country consum-
nation devoutly to be wished. Shrink
age is the order of the day, and there
is no reason why hotel rates should
not partake of the universal decree.

AVANT COURIER.

AN INCH 4 TEAR.-A Minnesota
farmer gives, in the ct. Paul Pioneer,
his experience with plcs ',g field for
wheat one Inch deeper every year.
The first yesr he plcwed the land four
inches deep apk sasted seven bush
els Of wheat to the ccre. The next
season he plowsd cue inch deeper and
TOOK of twenty seven bushels per
acre. Continuing to plsv one inch
deeper the next y-ar, ne harvested
thirty one and . ,aaff bushels. He
says, in conclusion: "Iast fall did
not go down for the extra inch. I
feared If kept on until got down
Is or 20 inches, the straw would grow
Is or 40 feet high, and that won't stand
the storms Of Minnesota; but if we
want long straw and heavy wheat we
must pillow deep. One inch deeper
each year Is plenty, and if this rule is
followed strictly, our farms will be in
good condition for 100 years to come.
