The Farms of Washington

Spokane Review: While the cities of
this state have been protesting against
the inaccuracy of the census, the farmers
have been making their returns to the
enumerators and we are informed that
the increase in farms has been So great
that the supply of blanks has been ex-
hausted The state would not suffer To
an alarming degree if the surprise in this
direction should prove even still greater
when the returns are counted. 1t would
have healthier look il We could show
fewer people in the towns and cities and
more in the mines and upon the farms
The tendency of the times is too much in
the direction of crowded cities and de-
serted farms
