AGRICULTURAL LA DOR.
The Wages It Co"nmahd! ia the Different
 Parts or the Union.

Parts of the mon.
 A recent investigation of wages of farm labor by the Department of Ag- riculture presents some very intcrost- ing facts. The last previous investl- gation was made three years ago. Since that time, it appears, the changes have been very slight, though local differ ences occur. According to the report the average rate per month, where the laborer boards himself, is d few cents lower in the Middle and Western States and in California, and very little higher in the South and New En- gland The highest wages in tho Northern and West, ,rn States were paid in 1866. the rate being $2s.9l per month. Three years later the monthly rate of wages in the North and West was $27Ol. By the year 1875 it had been reduced to S23, 60, and i'll 1879 1t was $20 2S per month. In 1882 1t had increased to $23. 63, but three years later it had fallen to $2S.2 and for the present year the rate of wages per month is T22.2 P.
 In the Eastern States in 1866 higher wages were paid than in any other section of the country except Califor- nia. In that year farm laborers in New England were paid $33. 33 per month, and in California $35. 70. In 1869. in the Eastern or New England States, the wages had fallen to $32 oS, and six years later reduction to S2S. 96 was noted. In 1879 the lowest point was reached: farm laborers were re- ceiving only S20.2l per month. In 1882 it increased to S26.61, but had fallen three wears later to S25.30, and this year is $23.06.
 Higher wages have always been paid in California than in any other section of the country. notwithstanding the competitor of ''cheap Chinese labor. " In 1866 farm laborers in California re- ceived $35 75 per month. The highest point was reached in 1869, when SIG. W was paid. In 1875 the rate was 450; four years later it was S4l; in 1882 1t was $3s %; in 1885 it had increased only fifty cents, and this year it is only $3S.0S.
 In the Middle States the rate in 1866 was S3O 07, or but little more than the rate paid in the Western States. In 1869 it was S2s O2. in 1875 it was $26. 02, and in 1879 it WAS only Sl9.69, Until 1882 an increase was noted. the rate of wages that year being $22.24. X further increase occurred in 1885, farm laborers then receiving S23.19. This i year the rate is only S23 II, or eight cents lower than it was three years ago.
 In the Southern States the rate of wages paid for farm labor is lower than in any other section of country. This has always been the ease. Be- fore the abolition of slavery there was virtually no wages paid for farm labor. i It was only after the war that farm [ labor commanded a price. In 1866 the rate of wages was sl6 per month 1 It increased to SI1.2l in 1869, but had ! fallen to $1622 in 1873, and reached the lowest point. Sl3.3l, in 1879. An l increase to Sl5.3u was noted in 1882, and during the three years that fol- ! lowed. further decline to Sl4.21 Oc- cured The present rate of wages in | the South is Sl4.54 per month.
