Farming in New EnGland-Some Sig
nificant Facts.

Farming in New England-SOme Sig
n1ficant Facts.
HousAroNIc, Mass., Feb. %.
To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
Yesterday slight accident kept me wait
ing at the junction of the Mount Tom and
Connecticut River railroad. AS it was just
noon and no hotel near, started for the
nearest farm house for lunch. In several
places could get none, but at last was sue
cessful. While at the table was interested
in the information of the farmer about the
present value of meadow lands in that
neighborhood. He said when he came back
from the war he worked out the next sum-
mer for twenty eight dollars per month and
bought his farm on which he is now living
at the rate of one hundred dollars per acre,
taking him at that rate almost four months
to earn acre of land. To-day he had just
bought several tracts of land joining his
farm, and exactly as good, for thirty-fve dol
lara per acre, and still the price of farm
labor is but little changed, for he now hired
two men at almost the price of twenty years
ago. This, he said, is why land has SO low
cred in price. No one can work land and
farms are all going to decay.
As pass through the country l often see
farmhouses deserted and laad growing up to
weeds and bushes because no one will stay
at home and look after it. The factory or
large cities take all the young men, and as
fast the older ones pass away the farm is
forsaken. We often see this fact stated in
the newspapers but it is hard to believe it
true, but such is the case. You can buy
hundreds of farms for less than the buildings
on them are worth, but unless you want
them as pleasure speculation they are werse
than useless money investment. Sheep
cannot be raised with profit on account of
the dogs, for the latter getting to be of
much more consideration than sheep, and SO
one is kept at the loss of the other.
I have stated some facts of to day, but
there is a change coming soon. Already I
see by the magazine articles and by newspa-
per comments that the tide of farming life is
to return eastward. The cattle plains of the
West are being overstocked and beef raising
as ten years ago by leaving cattle on the
plains all winter to shift for themselves is
getting less and less profitable every year.
Government lands are already nearly all
taken up and the Indians are being nearly all
killed off and no more territory is to be OBJ
tanned from them az it has already been
"gobblsd." Where then are we to get our
beefl There is no doubt but the next few
years will bring great changes.
This Massachusetts, farmer told me that
corn paid him better than tobacco of late
and his cattle better still. We will soon
turn our attention to producing beef and
| that is soon to be one of the promising indus
| tries cf New England. NJ. G. S.

On the new bonnets all the trimmings

Prohibition hasn't worked very we'll in this

where there is much need of it. The Royal
Niger company, which now practically con-
trolls the trade of the lower Niger and Of its
great branch, the Benue, affording naviga-
BILE route to Central Africa, has adopted the
policy of prohibiting the trade in Intoxicating
liquors in the great region it governs. This
policy has been adopted, we are told, "fer
financial reasons" And an order of King
Leopold of Belgium provides shat all dealers
in intoxicating liquors above the Inkissi
river, which empties into the lower Congo in
the cataract region, must take out licenses at
cost of $500 per annum, and submit to reg

THE soUTHERN PROTRCTIoNIsTs

THE SOUTHERN PROTECTIONISTS.
The advocates of protection in the South
are making their voices heard, and the free
traders, who were once supposed to be so
numerous in the South, are not conspicuous
ly making their appearance. The fact is, the
changed condition of things in that region
has made great change in the opinions of
the people there.
Attorney G. L. Edwards of the Ellis
county bar, Texas, shows very plainly how
the failure to develop the industrial resources
of the South left her dependent on the out
side world and helpless when the war came.
Never, he points out, had people more rea-
son to lament their neglect of manufactures.
A carriage becoming worn out could not be
replaced Iron and steel became priceless
commodities. Cast off wagon ties and old
scrap iron of every kind about the planta-
tions were raksd together and beaten into
clumsy ploughshares. All things made of
leather went beyond the reach of common
people. Sugar ceased to be household
article and coffee became memory. Leaves
of holly and forest shrubs were used for tea.
Merchandise ceased to be thought Of. Stores
were closed and rats rioted in their empty
solitude. Pina, needles and buttons became
jewels. The cotton producing country of the
world was without thread! In all the con-
federacy there was not place where knife,
fork or bit of crockery could be made.
Nails went out of use Tin ware disappeared
and glass ware followed it. Many who
clinksd cut glasses in toasting the young con-
federacy drank from earthern mugs before
its end. Common soda beeame precious
powder. A salt famine spread through the
length and breadth of the land. Dirt from
the floors of smoke houses, dirt that had
absorbed the salt drippings and brine OF
former years was assiduously boiled and the
nitrous product treasured with affectionate
concern.
This is a true and graphic picture of the
state of affairs then. There has been great
change in the South since then, and the
change is still going rapidly on. AS Mr.. Ed
wards says: The day of free trade in the
South is past. 1t went out with the old
system of labor. Old time preiudices must
soon follow Intolerance of free thought
and free speech in politics is yielding in 8
degree to the lessons of experience and com
mon sense. Factory, furnace and mill are
sounding the glad notes of new gospel in
the South. Prosperity is a splendid convert
ing power. Dollars are eloquent orators and
appeal to prejudice as nothing else can

It is stated that over five thousand pianos

There is some good sense in the Wisconsin
legislature. A committee of that body, after
inspecting the CHER prisons of the country,
has reported in favor of the contract system
and its report will be the basis of future leg
islation on the subject. The ground taken
by the committee is that the convict should
earn his living, and that labor under contract
is the only way of giving him steady employ
ment.
