THE value of the farm If the United
States is estimated at nine thousand, six
hundred and fifteen million dollars, nearly
as much as both the railways and manufac-
tures together. This estimate does not in
clude farm buildings or stock. Ii these
were added, the total would be much more
than that of both railways and manufac
lures Moreover, the value of the farm
products fer 1880, nearly two thousand mil
lions, justifies much higher valuation Of
the farm property. Including the stock,
Buildings, implements, and all that may
fairly be included under the head Of farm
property, the value probably exceeds twice
that of both railways and manufactures.

%BANeoR Wing: We protest against the
shabby treatment the Portland Argus and
other Democratic papers visit upon Laid
and Murch by continually denouncing those
who are responsible for the River and Har-
Dor bill. The two Representatives from
Eastern Maine have a fellow feeling for
their Southern Democratic brothers. who
give easy lessons in electing without ballots
and suppressing majorities, and those broth
ers were almost unanimous for the River
and Harbor bill, even demanding bigge
one. 1t would be less cowardly in Demo
cratic newspapers to cease indiscriminate
filings, and call names. Ladd and Murct
are short and easy names 10 embody in theil
flaming denunciations.

THE untimely death of Professor Balfour
has raised in England discussion of the
value of mountaineering as an exercise.
For the nervously strong and the muscular
it is declared by the Lancet to be an excel
lent form of exercise, but unfortunately it
is not such persons that engage in it, but
rather the very class that is least well fitted
for it's pursuit. Great peril of injury and
accident, it says, is incurred through it by
those who lead habitually intellectual and
sedentary lives. Such persons may be
steady of nerve and clear headed, but the
exercise still will not do for them. sit is
too laborious, too exacting to the sense or
gans, and too severely exhausting to all the
powers of life and energy to be undertaken
without more than a mere feeling of cour-
age and power, which may be misleading"

.,tipg Coal with Compressed Lime.

August 20, ii series Of interesting ex-
lents took place in the workings of the
'pClife sflkstone Galleries, near Shef-
he object being to test the new method

instead of blasting powder. The ex-
hsuts, which were witnessed by the
3 sls Of this and other collieries, took
! in the Parkgate Seam. A hole about
inches in diameter and four feet deep
drilled through the solid coal and
bed out, a perforated iron tube was then
ted and the line cartridge three inches
put in. When the line had been
ned home and the hole made up, force
h was used to inject water into the bot

OF the whole of the fall, not more

robe Of dark rubber, buttoned close to the

no light task 10 bring the great, powerful
man under its influence, and it was sew

operation. A section of the tongue and
that portion of the floor of the mouth
tainted by the cancer were removed. The
operation consumed twenty-slX minutes,
