Raising Wheat ut q Loss.

Indiana Farmer: From facts and fig
ures compiled in recent English publ.
cation entitled the English Farmer and

decade ending 1880. having Increased

SO 100 OcO acres ia 1880. The area 10
Australis during the same time increased
2 900 700 acres. India increased her
wheat area about one fourth, while the
United Kingdom OF Great Britain shows
Il decrease Of more than rs per cent.
The land heretofore devoted to cereals
In that country has been put in perman-
|ent pasturage or clover. The same
showe that the cost Of rsising

OF only ~ cents per acre. The United

says:

,Of course, there IL : permanent scnool

places the necessity Of gravel roads above

should take such etand - the Journal
credits him with. He proposes the rob-
bing Of the school fund, the bulwsrk ol

be bettered! The proposition is ilI-ad-
lvised aud unwarranted. In the state Of
Indians every dollar that is received from
the liquor and dog taxes is needed q

should be taken away. The state wisely
set aside this fund in order that the cnil-
