Growth of the Churches.

The Independent has gathered some valu-
able and interesting statistics showing the
streueth of the various Christian churches
in the United States aud their growth our
ing the pas; year. In some cases the figures
are estlmases, but our contemporary believes
that CD the whole the results "Very closely
approximate the truth"
From these IL appears hat there arc 10
| the Uated States 151 ,26l churches of all de-
| nominatione, 103 800 ministers and nearly
| %. .OOO, 900 members. During the year there
has been an increase OF s, 800 churches, near
| lv 4. 900 ministers end nearly ,090, 600 MEM
| bers.
The most numerous denomination Is the
Roman Catholics, with Its $500 churches.
s 800 priests, etc.. and S,277, 900 population,
of whom 4,676, 900 are estimated to be COM
municaDtF.
Then come the Msthodlsts with, In round
numb bers. 1880, 600 communicates; Baptisss,
1922, 900; Psesoy erlans, ,229,00o; Luther
ans, 1,0S6,000; Congregationalists, 49l, 600,
and Episcopaliaus, 100000.
The increase in the Catholic population
during the year was 421 700. The estimated
gain in Catholic communicate YVES over
23S, 900.
I06 CROWN vi IIOloeLaut AteupciohiP noo
66S,000 The Metbodists gained more than
256 600, the Bsptisls more than 213 900, the
Lutherans $4,000, the Presbyterians nearly
49 600, the Coneregationalists more than It,
600 and the Epiacopalisns eoout $500.
The accession of new members waa even
larger than these figures, since In every de-
nomination there were deaths of members
whose places were filled by new acquis:-
tious The number OF deaths in the Methc-
diet Episcopal body, for example, was re-
ported at 2S.30O
This is highly satisfactory end epoourae-
ing SLOWING to eli who have the welfare of
the church at heart. A gain Of nearly 1,1OO,-
900 Ia embersbip 10 ore year, with cor
responding increase in the number of
churches apd ministers, Indicates that chris
tianity is marching with nu uncertain
stcide. As our contemporary vel! eays. ut
is in Itself q most overwhelming refutetion
of the assertions we besr now and then from
various quarters that christianity is losing
ils hold upon our people and That cur
churches are declining."-M. Y. Herald.

IRISH POTATO RAISING.

In arranging for the crops for the
ensuing year we desire to impress
upon our readers the importance of
giving attention to this crop for the
coming spring. From the returns of
the present crop it is found to be
throughout the country the smallest
aver grown, and the result will be
that by February or March the mar.
ket will be bare of stock and there
will be a large demand for the early
potatoes which can be so well raised
here. Prepare, therefore, to mees this
emergency, and secure a good share of
the money which can be made from a
crop which a be gotten off in time
to leave the land available for another
crop. In order to do this it will be
necessary to cur seed at once, or
the price will be almost prohibitory.
Having got the seed, set about at once
preparing the land. The best way to
proceed will be to give the field a
heavy dressing of barn yard manure,
with 800 to 400 pounds of phosphate
fertilizer per acre. Let this be well
worked into the land. AS soon as
the ground is dry enough and danger
of freezing over, set out the row and
plant. A week or ten days after
planting SOW about 200 pounds of
nitrate of soda per acre, and cultivate
frequently. The result will be q rapid
growth of the potatoes and an early
marketable crop.-SOWthern Planter
