OF the farmers prospects In Hunt coun-
ty the Greenville Banner SAYS: The
farmers are hard at work finishing up the
cultivation of their cotton crops. On ac-
count of the recent wet weather many
fields were foul. but nearly all are IN good
fix now, and the prospect for far cot
ton crop is good. More than an average
corn crop is made. The hay, mlllet ana.
fruit crops are fine. Cattle are rolling

Building and Loan Associations.
st. Louis Embellishments.

The vast majority of city jewellers
rent their houses and never have per-
manent home. This constitutes a sort
of respectable vagabondage including
our reputable people of the middle
classes. The need of this sort of life is
of late coming under discussion. That
it involves vast waste and loss, and is
seriously detrimental to family ehaTae-
ter is beyond question. Building and
loan associations have grown into prom
inenoe as a remedy, and the subject
should be CONSIDERABLY studied by all
men Of moderate means. Mrs. SanbuFy
of the social science association esti-
mates the number of such associations
at present at nearly FIVE thousand, with
an investment of $500, 600 900, while the
savings during the forty years past have
been over five hundred million dollars.
There are 600 associations in Ohio, $50
in Illinois, fifty-twO in Michigan, and
other states in proportion.

Building Associations.
ST. Louis Republic.

Wage workers and people of small
means IN all large cities recognize the
need of some secure place to protect their
small savings, and from which they can
draw them when desired Safety is the
first requisite to make such a depository
satisfactory, and then as high rate of
interest as is consistent with perfect safe
ty is always acceptable. Sometimes the
question is asked with seeming surprise
why are there not more savings banks In
the West, but those who PROFOUND such
a query have evidently not studied the
recent growth and wonderful devel>
opment Of the building association
idea. In SO per cent. of
the cases where money is deposited in
saving banks it is with the intention that
when it comes out it viii pay for either a
house or lot, or both. The patrons of
such institutions rarely own their own
homes, and the reason that saving banks
are not IN demand is that the would-be
patrons of such have found in the build
ing association a surer way to secure
home.
This institution is meeting large de-
mand and is here to stay. Few who havel
not studied its workings have a proper
conception of what it has done fpr
Philadelphia and what it is nSw
doing for ST. Louis. 1t has filed lie
former city with thousands of cheerful,
happy homes that without its helpful iu9s
tiuence would never have been built. In
st. Louis since 1886 it has acquifRa AZ
membership of 20 900, and now contnesss
nearly fifty million dollars worth 5of
property, divided I'D among thousands of
honest heads OF families of small means
who would otherwise have been renters
all their lives.
The security of money placed with
building associations is strengthened by
the state laws of Missouri, which require
q first deed of trust on all property
upon which loans are made, and
which further provide that should the
non borrowing member desire to with
draw from the association he can do so
and take his money with him after Civ
ing proper notice, and some associations
even pay HIM interest on his money
after the first year even il he does with
draw it. This idea, which the people
are getting to understand, Offering as it
does to make an American citizen and,
free-holder Of every adult IN this coun-s'
try. is one which justly deserves lis
present and prospective popularity It
is inseparably connected with. that
sacred institution of home upon whIah
our government is founded and wheres
in the stability of the social order fnuz
its secure basis. =
These associations in Missouri are a
power for good when properly conducted,
but, like other meritorieus organizations,
tiaey must be closely watched an6 carea
fully managed to prevent them from BEL
coming opportunities for dishonesty and
a loss to their patrons. Great care should
be exercised in loaning money on real
estate, and the titles to all property
should be clear, beyond doubt. If there
are not a sufficient number of associa-

family, a greenbacker and several times
candidate for congress, has just
preached unique sermon on the Johns
town calamity. He said that God had
nothing to do with it, that these mining
places are "God -forsaken spots,'' and
that he should have considered it favor
to be drowned, if ne had lived there.
He thene explained the origin of the lake
reservoir and its conversion into private
fish pond, and proceeded thus: "What
did GOD have to do with tho politics of
Pennsylvania or with the contracts of
these pleasure hunters? The man made
lake burst the man made dam, and the
water, pent up by man IS works, crashed
against and ruined the man made 4nills

do with the lUrid industries of this town
by night Or its wet damnation by day?"

the papers do it, but they are mistaken.
The politician talks to the newspaper

other pontician, not to be outdone, puts
fiea in his newspapers ear, and thus
the agitation grows. There are great

The directory man is abroad in Texas,
and what the Indianapolis News says of
his ilk elsewhere will make timely read
ing in the Lone Star state: 1.-THE last
number of New York eity's directory
for 1S89-estimates a population there
of l,753 ,610, the directory containing
351 ,122 names, and the estimate being
made by multiplying that number by
this year contains 1876, 1913 names, and
the estimate of the total number of in
habitants is made by multiplying by four
and half. That would give Brooklyn q
population of SIS ,526. The New York
Sun sensibly says that neither of these
estimates is on a sound basis, and it
doubts if, with yet a twelve months
growth, the United States census will
show SO great a population in either of
the cities, and it adds:
Experience shows that from year to year, as
the system of the directory makers improves and
their canvass becomes more thorough, the ratio
of inhabitants to directory names steadily de-
creases.'
est is doubtful if there has ever been
a case in which such: estimates have not
been much too high. A year from now
