THE SIZE OF FARMS.
Facts and Figures Which Can Not FAN to
Teach Good Lesson.

Facts and Figures Which Can Not FAN to
Teach Good Lesson.
The farms in the United States num-
bered one million and half in 1850,
and five millions in 1887. The average
size decreased in the same time from
two hundred and three hundred acres
to less than one hundred and thirty.
1t is better that the citizen should be
his own landlord, than that one man
should own thousands of acres, and be
the lord of multitudes of farm laborers.
The farms in the Uuited States may be
summarized as follows:
More than 200 acres. 26,8OO
More than 500 acres. 5000
From 80 to 500 acres. .....",729,OO0
From 8 to 10 acres. ................ l34,SS7
Under acres. .......... 4,352
OF these farms three-forths in number
are cultivated by the owners. the re-
mainder are rented on shares or fixed
sum. Now contrast the situation in
Great Britain and France, noting the
fact that in the United States more
than half the farmers own properties
varying from fifty to five hundred
acres.
In Great Britain there are $4,000, 900
acres owned by 1,174,0O0 per-
sons. OF these $4,000 possess
less than one acre in ex-
tent. In England one man IS
recorded as owning more than 100, coo
acres, in Ireland there are three of
these territorial lords, in Scotland
there are twenty-four. These twenty
four men own one-fourth OF the area OF
Scotland. One estate in the county of
Sutherland measures 1,176, 454. acres,
or more than 1900 square miles. The
returns as to land proprietors in
France vary, the division of land
under the French law OF descent oper-
ating to make constant changes. But
with an area of nearly 100000 600
acres of arabic land, and population
of less than 40, 600, 900, there is the very
large number of from $4,000 to g.
250,OOO land owners, as estimated by
different statisticlans. Taking the
number at 1900, 600; of these 100000
were exempt from tax because of indi-
genee; about 4,500, 900 averaged twelve
acres each, with an income of $50. so,
and SO, 600 had an income OF not more
than $94O. 90 year. A few proprietors
of large estates, Of course, enjoyed
large incomes. But France is coun-
try OF industry and thrift. How her
people save their earnings, and how
generously they pour them out. had an
illustration in the payment of the Ger
man indemnity after the war of 1870.
The point to which we call attention is
however, the comparisons in size OF
farms in the countries noted, and in
the number and prosperity of the land
holders. -American Agriculsarist-

The sheds were constructed as follows:

New and Important Medical Fact.

The Medical Rerier, commenting on
the scientific and profound researches by
Prof. Seegen, of Vienna, and his conclu.
sion that the sugar formed by the liver
is derived from albumen and fat, char
acterizes his conclusion as a new and i'm
portant fact-o not in accord with the
previously entertained chemical and
physiological ideas. Prof. Seegens con-
illusions, briefly summarized, show that
the blood passing from the liver contains
an infinitely greater quantity of sugar
than that entering the organ, that the
newly formed sugar in the liver is wholly
independent of saccharine food, as well
as of the carbo- hyd rates induced with
the food; that even the liver glycogen is
unconcerned in the production of sugar
in the liver, and that albumen and fat
are the materials out of which the liver
forms sugar. The demonstration of this
fact was accomplished by bringing to-
gether fatty bodies and blood with finely
divided liver substance This being so,
the liver is pronounced to be the great
laboratory in which food is changed for
the purpose of life, for the performance
of work and the production of heat.

The Worlds Largest Tunnel

An engineering work that has taken
over century to construct can hardly
fail to offer some points of interest in its
history and illustrate the march of events
during the years of its progress An
instance of this kind is to be found in a
tunnel not along ago completed, but
which was commenced over 100 years
ago. This tunnel. or adit, as it should
be more strictly termed is at Schemnitz,
in Hungary. Its construction was agreed
upon in 1878, the object being to carry
off the water from the Schemnitz mines
to the lowest part of the Gran Valley.
The work is now complete, and it forms
the largest tunnel in the world, being
1927 miles long, or about one mie
longer than St. Gothard, and two and a
half miles longer than Mont Gents.
The hight is 8 feet 10 inches and the
breadth 5 feet inches This tunnel,
which has taken so long In making, has
cost very nearly million sterling, but it
appears to have been well spent-at
least the present generation has no
reason to grumble, for the saving from
being able to do away with water rails.
ing appliances amounts to $500 q
year.
There is no further point, however,
worth notice, for if we have the advan.
tage of our great graudfathers in the
matter of mechanical appliances, they
were certainly better off in the price Of
labor. The original contract for the
tunnel made in 1852 was that it should
be completed in 80 years and should
cost $50 per yard run. For II years
the work was done at this price, but the
French Revolution enhanced the cost
of labor and materials to such an extent
that for 80 years little progress was
made.
For 10 years following much prog
ress was made, and then the work
dropped for 20 years more. until the
water threatened to drown the mines al
together. Finally the tunnel was com
pleted in 1888, the remaining part cost
ing S105 per yard. or more than three
times as much as the original contract
rate. Omaha Bee,

Riding in the Popc's Carriage.

Once when was in Rome found my
wap, or rather lost my way, into the
vatican stables. There were hundreds
of carriages about, it seemed to me-, be-
longing to priests and cardinals and high
dignitaries generally, and one great
scarlet and gilt equipage, witha canopied
golden roof, and bore upon it the arms
OF the church, and in this carriage no one
ever rides but the Pope of Zone. No
body was in sight few hostlers a block
away busily cleaning a trim little
cardinals coupe, and so, with my heart
in my mouth, ! opened the door and
popped in. flounced around on those
sacred seats Just as have seen children
hounce around on the seats of the idle
carriages in the stables back of town, and
by-and.by, when could, slipped away.
Nobody ever knew about it, but to my
dying day shall remember with delight
my "dry" ride in the Pope's carriage. =
