FROM 1870 TO 1850 the total number
OF farms in the country increased from
2,O59,9S5 to i,00S, ,907 and in PENNSYLVANIA
from l74,0il to 1852. Throughout
the Southern states there was a very
large percentage Of increase. In our
own state the greatest increase was of
farms OF over 100 acres, showing that
The increase was due to new land being
brought under cultivation rather than
to a subdivision of that formerly made
arabic at the same time the average
size OF farms has decreased in the state
from lO3 to 03 acres and in the country
at large from 1873 to l3i acres this is a
very satisfactory exhibit, as improved
and closer tillage undoubtedly brings
better results now from the farm OF
reduced size. The slight apparent re
duction in the aggregate value of
Pennsylvania farms from 1870 to 1850 i.
OF course due to the depreciation in thu
market value of real estate, owing to {
return TO the gold 5 andard, rather thar
to any decrease in its productiveness.

THE CITY OF SEATTLE:

The great rush for lots in this add
ton Is unprecedented. Over Fifty of
them sold IN the last four weeks. They
are one mile east from the postoffice. on
the shortest and most direct route TO
Lake Washington. Mill street extends
through the addition. The lots are
small farms by themselves, being 6oxl2s
feet in size. They are situated on a
high plateau. overlooking the bay, and
IN the near future will undoubtedly be
right In the heart of the Queen City
OF the Pacific coast. These lots are
not offered for sale to spectators for
cash. The plan is to give every man.
no matter what his financial circum-
stances, a chance to secure a lot or
a block of land, that as ''time rolls
round" he will have reason to rejoice
instead of weep over his purchase. IL
he Is Spectator and pays cash down
for his purchase, we bind him to clear
and fence his lot or lots within year.
II be is poor man, DESTROYS of secur-
ing home and saving rent, we give
him a years chance for his life, and if
he behaves himself well, makes good
and especially if he clears
and improves his lot nicely. we give
him a better chance. We prefer selling
lots to this class Of people on easy
terms, than to receive all cash in
hand. Our object is to increase and
multiply" homes and improvements.
that our census returns may show a
population of 10000 in 1884, 10000 in
1883, 10000 in 1892, and 100000 in 1886,
with corresponding wealth. There are
abundant resources in the lakes and
rivers, the hills and mountains, the
plains and valleys behipd US. and the
broad Pacific before US, to warrant this
happy state of affairs, and they will be
utilized to this end by our
citizens, and don't you for
get it, If You do, you may lose the
chance to secure one of the finest,
largest and cheapest lots in the city.
Price 500 each for inside lots: $50
for corners. with SIS off for one corner
and two inside lots adjoining. Apply to

is when he comes to Seattle. within fif-
teen minutes to as many days, accord
ing to his intuition, he wakes up to the
truth of the situation, is seized with
that impulse which animates the masses,
and the next arrival cannet tell him
from one of the "Old settlers" so enthu-
siastic is he over our vast resources. our
central position and the certain great
ness of our city. His first move is to
purchase real estate; and history re-
cords the fact that the sooner he wakes
up and makes his purchase, the happier
he Is; as every day adds to his wealth. |
