FARMS WILL BE WORTH moaE.

T. s. Gold has written for the Water bury Republican an article on Connecticut farms from which the following passages are taken :-
 ssThe smallnumber of children in Amer. ican families adds to the difficnlty~of SUD- porting schools in rural districts, and with the school l-honse gone there follows a rapid depreciation of farm property from this cause. The attractions of city and village life, with the so.caiied superior education. al -advantagesaof vtheg high schools, are bearing hard upon our rural population. say tso-called superior educational ad- vantages, because I believe there is no place so favorable for bringing mp children as on we'll ordered farm. They learn there that self-dependence, habits of in- dustry and foresight, readiness for all emergencies, that can be acquired so we'll nowhere else, so that whether to remain on the farm or to engage in business, they have here laid the surest foundation for success. These changes have been going on for more than fifty years, but lately the railroads, encouraging village. and city growth and managed for their benefit, have been an important factor in them. They have favored the cities, competing points, and the rural towns, some ofswhlch nIO AcAVuy III OoDG 10 Q6lp Du1iO tN0Re roads, are the sufferers. The eagernees of agents for western loans, with the promise of high rates of interest, has drawn away our capital, and on falling market New England farms are summed as an in- vestment. But the tables must turn. Uncle Sam will have no more lands to give away. The railroads will find settlers for all their domain that is habitable, this to be ascertained by trial, and New England farms will again be in demand. Even now inquiries as to farms are received from those who have sought their fortunes at the west and would again seek the more certain if less abundant retufns of New England agriculture. As to the means of repopulating deserted farms, would say: It is hard to turn the tide now setting away from them. Farmers need ssocials3nd educational advantages We hope much from one source now at work in& this direction. The grange, de. signed to promote the social, moral, edu cational and material interests of all en- gagged in agriculture. has come to help to a better knowledge of all moral and national questions, and, above all, to teach the farmers to use their power as citizens, not only for their own benefit, but of the whole country, for none see clearer than the farmer that all industries must stand or fall together"

A SCARCITY OF PENNIES.

There seems to be necessity of having larger supply of minor coins in circula- tion. In the south and west there is said to be scarcity of pennies. The demand is increasing all over the country, and the mint at Philadelphia is running its ma chinery from 12 o'clock Monday morning to midnight on Saturday, and yet is un- able to supply the demand for pennies. The mint is nearly two months behind in it's orders. You have to deposit your money at the mint at least two months for pennies before you get them and as the demand is daily increasing, and the supply cannot increase, it is reasonable to expect that within six months pennies will be scarce everywhere. An appropriation la made each year for the delivery, free, by Adams Express, of the pennies, in multi ples of $20 to all parts of the United States. The pennies are rapidly being taken from all over the United States and sent to the southwest portion of the country where the demand is increasing; the result of that is, that all the large cities cannot get all the pennies they wish to use. It is evidei that large portion of the loss occasioned by 'spenny famine" would fall on the workingman and his family. In the south and southwest, where pennies have her. tofore been refused notice and scornfully regarded as only fit coin for ''yankees," the demand is now absorbing more than the surplusage of the coin

LOCAL ToPIcs-PEss,D AND sCIssoRED.

Rockville Journal: The vote of Mon- day proves the wisdom of the plan, sd strongly advocated by the Journal prev ious to election-of 8 non-partisan ticket.
 We can repeat what we argued from the first, that party politics are out of place in town or city government. The best man for the business connected with tho office, is correct in principle and correct in practice. This principle is always carried out by certain percentage of voters, tho thinking, more intelligent portion. Itwas seen in our last town election when many republicans ignored party lines and. voted for MT. West for first seleetman, only be. cause he was recognized as a man of en- ergy and business and fit man for the place. We hope 1t will be possible herel after to place before the voters non. partisan nominations for city offices. Even if one party or the other does feel over confident that they can gobble up the whole city ticket, it is ardently desired that the man. agers wont be blinded by party greed, but advocate and work for the best interests of this ely, for good government and liberal though conservative expenditures.
 In his ''introductory statement" at the recent dedication of the new Universalist church at Monson, Rev. G. V. Maxham said that when he became pastor of the church at Stafford 25 years ago there was not another church of the same faith be- tween Brattlebore and Norwich, and gave an account of the planting and growth of the denomination in this section. The first 2Universalist service in Monson was held in May, 1882, in Central Hall, Rev. E. A.
 Perry of Palmer preaching. The parish was organized November A, 1882, with 19 charter members. The first pastor was Rev. Albert Hammatt, who commenced his labors May 1, 1888, and resigned in June, 1885, 1885. Rev. Donald Fraser was called December 1, 1883, resigned April 5, 1887; Rev. Ira Priest called Sep. tember l, 1857, resigned May 15, 1889
 Rev. MT. Fisher, the present pastor, com menced his labors September l. The num- Der of church members is 51. The whole number of members of the parish is 131, but deaths, withdrawals and removals leaves the present number 1O6. The num- Der of active families is 75. In giving the history of the erection of the church he said that the society wished the names of those belonging outside of the society who had contributed to be made public, and announced them as RIM.

 The Hartford correspondent of the New York Times ill recent article on political appointments in this state, pays the fol- lowing high and we'll deserved compliment to U. s. Marshal N. D. Bates and his dep. uties:
