ture is to be found. He might have
added, and he should have added,
that more Government paper, unless
deprecated, could not benefit the in
debted farmers, because the same

ducing wheat, must be given to OBJ.
tain the new dollar of paper, so long
as it is undepreciated, as to obtain a
new dollar of gold. On the other
hand, if the new paper is depreciat-
ed below gold, the farmer may in
deed obtain two paper dollars for a
bushel of his wheat, or the laborer
for a day of his toll, instead of one
gold dollar; but neither the farmer
o the laborer would be any better
Oft for this, because the farmer would
in time be obliged to pay a double
price in paper for everything needed
to produce the wheat, and the labor
er a double price in paper for every
thing needed to sustain himself and
Keep his family in comfort. General
Butler touched a very large question
when he called attention to the perils
of great holdings of land in n single
hand.
Mexico weekly ledger., 1879-06-26
Large and Small Farming.

Western farmers, and for the mat
ter of that farmers in all parts of our
country, will do well to study the in
teresting statistics of French farming
which General Butler had before the
Dairy Fair assembled in this city. A
great part Of the troubles which now
Cypress the agricultural industries Of
too many of III States grow out of
Indebtedness incurred during the in
fiation period under Grants admin
lstration, from 1869 to 1873. This
Indebtedness was incurred in order
to increase the size of farms. 1t was
not incurred to buy land of a differ
ert quality from that already under
cultivation, but to buy more Of the
same quality. If the farmers had
been able to pay for their new pur-
chases out Of accumulated earnings
the purchases might have been more
easily justified, but payment vas as
a rule chiefly made, not in cash, but
IN the forms of bond and mortgage,
and this, too, at prices enormously
Inflated by Republican financiering.
Mpch Of this Indebtedness is now
maturing the farmers have not the
wherewithal to pay the debt, and if
the land purchased is sold under
foreclosure it will not bring anything
near the purchase price. Where the
principal of the debt is not vet due
the farmer is weighted down by the
necessity of paying the high rates of
interest which in imitation time he in
cautiously promised to paw, Two
things, therefore, have brought the
farmer into his present difficulties.
One is his own greed for more land
and for a big farm, when his little
farm was big enough, as General
Butler has SO clearly explained; and
the other was the misleading iniu-
ehce OF government paper money not
based either on coin in the Treasury
vaults or on any other sort of capt.
tai. Under the operation of both of
these causes many large farmers of
the west have found themselves load
ed with huge farms which are too
large to be efficiently and economil-
caily managed by the owners were
lIee from debt. 1t is perhaps natur-
al Ina armer in this unfortunate
condition should think that a hair of .
the paper dog which bit them will +
effect a cure, and should therefore |
pray for o Government paper to ;
issued under one pretense or an !
other. But General Butler truly
tells them what the farmers O fFrance
nave discovered-that it is in small O
arms and not in large farms that the I

Comparative Depth Of Lakes.

From an interesting comparative
statement of the depth of lakes, recently
published in q foreign journal, it ap-
pears that, among European lakes. the
Achensee, in the Tyrol, heads the list.
At some points the depth Of this lake
reaches some $500 feet. The greatest
depth of the Lake of Constance is about
975 feet, that of the Chiemsee about 458
feet, and that of the Walchen and Ko-
nigssee GIL feet. The measurements
made about 1870, at the Dead Sea,
showed that at its deepest part its depth
is 1856 feet; but, if the fact be consid-
cred that the level of this lake Is already
1884 feet below the level of the Medi-
terranean, then it will appear that the
depression in the soil amounts in this
case to some $3.50 feet. The Lake of
Tiberias is extremely shallow in COM
parison. On its eastern part, the ave-
rage depth is only % feet; while ON the
western side it lies between 10 and %
feet. In Lake Baikal, depths have been
found which are certainly astonishing;
thus, in the upper part of the lake the
depth is 1880 feet, about the height OF
Mount Etna, but downward the bottom
constantly descends, and near the OPP
posite bank the depth amounts to H.
2S0, being far greater than the Mediter-
rauean, which nowhere exceeds 1900.
