Depopulation of Kansas.

The report Of the Board of Agriculture
of Kansas says that in the year 1888 the
population of the State was l,5l8,552, and
in 1890 it was but 1.427 ,o96, showing loss
Of 81. 458 OF per cent.
No effort il attempted to discredit these
figures; they aretreated as correct, but the
averment is made that notwithstanding
this decrease in population the productive
wealth Of the State has increased.
The board says that ga larger acreage
has been placed under cultivation and
larger values have been realized during
the two years IN which this exodus took
place than during the preceding biennial
period, and much larger still than during
the boom period Of 1885 and 1885,"
