Land Laws of Japan.

The leading vernacular journals of
Japan agree in regarding the recently
issued regulations for the sale of land in
Hokkaido as most important. a prOmin-
ent purpose of these regulations is to pre-
vent the purchase of large tracts by
SPECTATORS who have no intention of en-
gaging in agricultural pursuits, but
merely contemplate holding land with
the hope of rise in its value. To obvi-
ate such speculation, the area purchas-
able by one person is now limited to
100000 stubo, or about eighty acres,
and it is also provided that official
inspections shall be made annually with
the view of determining whether the
land is being applied to the purpose an
nounced originally by it's holder.
All land not thus utilized will be re-
sumed possession of by government In
addition the land will not become the &C
tual property of its cultivator until after
the expiration of ten years. During that
time he will have the use of 1t rent free,
and should his decade of experience
prove attractive, the option of purchasing
the fee simple for $1.2O per acre will then
be given him. Thus the arrangement
amounts to this-that anyone intending,
bone fide, to engage in agricultural pur-
suits can procure the free use of eighty
acres of land, with the certainty of
being able to purchase it in perpetuity, at
the end of ten years, for $1.20 per acre.
During those ten years he will be exempt
from land or local taxes, but nothing Is
said about export taxes, which are the
great incubus upon all industry in Hokka-
ido.-,Japan Mail.

The Summit of Mount Tacoma.

The view was ineXpressibly grand and
comprehensive, although the whole land
scape, below an altitude of 5000 feet,
was swallowed up in a sea of vapor,
leaving the higher mountains standing
out like islands, as We had seen them the
night before. An occasional gust of wind
would tear open the veil for a few mo-
ments, exposing to mOmentary view the
precipitous canyons and Crags for thou
sands of feet down the mountain s sides.
We seemed to be floating in dark blue
ocean, having no connection with the
earth below, and the mountain appeared
to rest gently upon its encompassing
clouds.
The narrow ridge upon which we stood
was the dividing line between two era
tiers, nearly circular, opening out to the
east and the west, their rims inclining
from each other at an angle of about
fifteen degrees. The western crater, the
larger Of the two, was some four hum
dred yards in diameter, and filled with
snow up to within sixty feet of its rocky
edges. Occasional small jets of steam, is
suing from the base of it's ragged walls,
gave evidence of former volcanic activ
ity. We could look down into the other
and slightly smaller crater, also, whose
rocky walls, like those of its neighbor,
stood out bare and distinct above the
snow throughout their entire periphery.
Jets of steam were rising from this one
also at various places.-GeOrge Bayley in
Overland Monthly.

There are now. 20,647 900 acres Of
land in the United states owned by
twenty-nine foreign landlords and
syndicates. The amount of land thus
owned is as large as Ireland. Indeed,
one Irish landlord Is said to draw
$500. 900 annual income in rack rents
from his estates in Illinois. One Eng
Iish gentleman in London owns 700,-
600 acres of American land. The
census of 1880 showed that there were
1924, sol tenant farmers in the United
States. That number must have in
creased considerably in six years, and
at the present time our American
"peasantry" probably outnumbers
that of Great Britain and Ireland COM
b1ned. At any rate there are in Ire
land today only 547, 222 tenant hold
ings; in England and Wales together
but 414, SO4, and in all Scotland so, 101.
The state of Illinois alone has 10000
more land tenants than Scotland.
France has 100000 small rural pro-
prietors aid 1000, 900 large proprietors.
Altogether, both great and small, the
number oflanded proprietors in the
United States is not quite 1900, 900,
and yet we have greater population
than France by l2,oO0,O 900, and many
times as much land as that country.
But the worst of the American situa-
ton is that fully one-half of our small
farms are mortgaged. Labor Journal.

The Race of ,rartvrs Not Extinct.

Accounts of the massacre of Catholic
missionaries and converts in southern
China show that the race of martyrs is
by no means extinct. Father Terrace,
who had lived for nine years in Yunnan,
when mob surrounded his house at
night, gathered his followers in the
chapel gave the last dissolution, went to
the door, and presenting himself to the
rabble, said: ''Here am to answer for
all" lie was at once cut down by
sabres. Father Bechet, q young priest in
Tongking, saw q number Of his converts
beheaded, and then, refusing to be bound
or blindfolded, offered his neck to the eX-
ecutioner without a tremor. Father Chate
let, ordered to descend to the place of exc
cution as hundreds Of his converts had
done, said: II shall not go so far. 1fyou
want my head come and get it." The
swords made short work of him where he
stood.-New York Sun.

In speaking of farmers institutes,
the Glencoe Register says: 1.-THE.
coming legislature must not fail TO
pass II law providing for Farmers
Institutes, to he held throughout the
State hereafter, SO that the farmers
may have one law directly in their
interest. An exchange truly says OF
the institutes.

knowledge can be drawn.
Q, They stimulate n pride ami re-
speot for the business Of farming.
5, They bring farmers together IN
closer social relations.
4, They make public the latest dis
coveries in agriculture.
3, They give the farmers OF the
state an opportunity to meet men
who have made their business SCI
ence as we'll as an art.
6, They are banks for the deposit
OF knowledge that may become the
common property for all.

of good crops and good prices.

housekeeper is full of the renglon OF
soap and water. She "goes for" roach
or a bug with q fury of zeal; speck in
the paint is like n blot on her soul; a fly
is pursued from corner to corner until
killed. Sweeping day comes around
with regularity thet savors of the laws
of the inevitable; and one feels that If
cleanliness is next to godliness, the good
housewife has worked out her salvation.
One feels that she will never adopt the
motto, 'Let sleeping dust lie."
Yet an i'll kept southern house will
often be more of home than the north
ern house with it's shining paint and
spotless walls; infinitely shabbier, as a
rule, because the things have worn out,
instead of rusting out
Among the farming classes in the rural
districts of the north, there is Il strongly
marked tendency to occupy the rear por-
ton of the house, so that from the front
it presents an uninhabited appearance;
and they make the kitchen family gather
ing point. This is never done in the
south, even by those that do not keep
servants: but perhaps for this the climate
is to be thanked. One cannot but pity
people that have best ROOM, " with the
atmosphere of IL vault, too sacred to be
opened except on feast days.-Marion A
| Baker In The Cosmopolitan.
Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1886-12-15

Temperance, economy and fore
thought will go very far toward solv-
ing the labor question. 1t is no hard
ship to any man that another posses
ses more wealth, provided he is not
permitted to use that wealth to OPP
press or wrong his fellows. Some
men have the ability to handle great
enterprises and amass great fortunes.
Ii such ability and such fortunes are
used wisely to give employment to
others, and not for the purposes of eX-
tortion, the world IS made happier
and the sum of human comfort is in
creased. 1t is certainly mistaken
idea that wealth necessarily brings
pleasure. The wealthiest men often
refer to the days when they were
wage-workers, free from the cares
and burdens of property, as the hap
piest days of their liyes.-Red Wing
Republican.

No reason can usually be given for
a neglect to mulch where mulching
would often be useful. The means of
doing it are at hand, and it only re-
quires a little physical exercise.
People fail in fruit and tree growing
frequently simply because they don't
bestow upon the work ordinary care.
There may be nc attempt to keep the
frost from injuring plants. Straw
berries, grape vines, evergreens, and
plants generally may be seen strug-
Cling with the severe winters in our
Northern climate without the least
protection. Then they die or are re-
tarded in development, and the re-
mark is made: Well, I never could
succeed in plant or tree growing. The
fact is there has been no effort made
to succeed, or at least the effort has
been an imperfect one. Mulching
prevents the alternate freezing and
thawing of the ground, and heaving
of the plants. 1t Is of much more use
than many people seem to think, if
indeed they think anything at all
about it.-Western Rural.

HOMES NORTH AND SOUTH.
The Northorner's Business Suit and the
Southerner's Clean Linen.

The Eorthcrner's Business Suit and the
Southerner's Clean Linen.
The past twenty-five years have
wrought another marked change. OF
old, it was the southerner that travelled
like prince, with quite inappropriate
magnificence of attire. But now to the
north belong the splendor and arrogance.
The northern man in his neat travelling
suit, and the northern woman in her
jaunty tailor gown, need not feel abashed
at being confronted by host of friends
at their journeys end. They are not
shabby and crumpled and travel-stained,
after the manner of the southerner, who
is apt to wear a cast-off suit for such pur-
poses, clearly reasoning that it is the di-
vine right to be dowdy when travelling.
But, in the same journey, the northerner
will feel perfectly rehabilitated when he
has donned fresh collars and cuffs; while
the southerner's sense of comfort will de-
mand O complete change of linen.
The average northerner, while neater
in his dress than the average southerner,
is not so clearly in his person. One does
not see in southern cities the crowds of
well dressed men in trim business suits
that are such feature of the north; but
the irreproachable linen Of the southerner
will testify to the truth of the above
statement.
Northern houses are undoubtedly bet
ter kept than those Of the south. The

One of the Best Things Out.

With the advent of the New Year
there always comes to the desk of the
editor something new, useful or UNI
ique in the shape of some invention
or discovery, or something which
will amuse and divert while it con
yeys instruction. Ofsuch n charac-
ter is the sterling novelty which lies
before US in the shape of Counter
Wrapper-Psd, az X So inches) for
the counter use of druggists and
dealers in medicine. CHANGING 1t the
sheets which to IL large number are
adhesively joined at one end, We find
they comprise numerous sketches
from the rich and racy pens of "B!ll
Nye.' and other talented anu we'll
known "fupny men" finely illustra-
ted in the broadest style OF the connie
art. At once the design il manifest
and most pleasing. One can Imagine
with what facility and pleasure
dealer can handle such iii ornament
to his counter, while at the same time
1t must give delight to his customers
free of all expense to himself. AS &
| wrapper to a parcel each bears IL
graceful lettering his name and place
of business. 1t is hardly necessary
! to add that It'll gotten out by The
Charles A. Vogeler Company, Balti-
more, Md, and is being distributed
freely to their patrons in trade. 1t il
another proof of the we'll earned repu'
tation of the remedies manufactured
| by that house and another of its in
genious methods of spreading tho
story of the wonderful cures wrought
by st. Jacobs Oil. In verse and al
liberated lines another story is told o
an equally famous and efticaciou'
remedy-Bed Star Cough Cure
which has been shown by the an
| alyses of the most distinguished
chemists to be free from opiates an'
| poisons; the cost of which is only
twenty-five cents. The pad viii
doubtless be very much III demand
and as it deserves should justly be-
come most popular as one of the bes
| things out.

When the Democrats helped to
elect d. NJ. Sabin United States
senator, they accomplished more to-
ward the Reorganization and weaken
ing of the Republican party than they
could possibly have done in any other
way. They are getting ready to make
another move of the same kind this
winter. Republicans, who care any
thing for their party, should be ex-
tremely careful about pandering to
the Democrats in the election of a
United States senator this year.
