BETTER STAY on THE FARM.

The disposition to leave the farm for
the city is not peculiar to any part of
this country, and is marked III most
civilized lands. The great cities are
everywhere gathering in those who have
life before them, and the rural districts
suffer. In considerable sections they
hardly grow at all, and often in the
older regions actually fecede in num-
bers. In the United States this drift to
the centers is Indicated by the census.
hundred years ago the cities had but
3.35 per cent of the population. In 1880
this had grown to 22.57, and last year
the census made it 1912. In couple OF
decades more, probably full half of
the population will be residents
of cities. 1t is question not
now to be determined where a
limit to this movement may
be reached. 1t is not healthy condi-
tion as permanency, although the cities
have shown great power Of assimi-
lation. There is in the chief centers of
population an army of the unemployed
superfluous. The country would be in
more wholesome state if the rural
districts had these surplus thousands of
the cities. There is no anger of there
being too many people, but they are
becoming i'll distributed to promote
the welfare of large classes. Those
who philosophize on the subject as
sumo quite generally that leading
factor in the migration of young men
and women from the farms to the cities
is the severity of rural labor. That,
however, is very insufficient as cause,
nor is it due to lack of opportunities to
acquire land, and, in the case of the
young men, operate farms for them
selves. The life upon the farm is not
more arduous than the immigrants Or
dinarily find in the cities. They usually
find existence quite as laborious in the
competitions of the town. In fact, hard
ship and uncertainty are oftener the
fortune of the immigrant from rural life
after the city is sought. The old fancy
was to come to town, find chance to
clerk in store. and wear Sunday
clothes every day. The tendency. how
ever, is to consolidate and re-
duce the number of small estab-
lishments, and largely employ girls at
small pay. The growing difficulties of
finding openings in the cities may grad
ually turn the current or diminish it.
The chief incentive to come to the town
with young people is the social in
stinct. Farm life is isolated and harsh
to the youthful nature when it means
little else but work and sleep. Its bar
rehness and monotony are irksome and
unsatisfying to the ardent young peo-
pie. Those are wise who aim to relieve
this situation in the great measure of
which it is susceptible, and retain the
boys and girls III the country. 1t is best
for them, and for both city and country.

VIEWS OF STATE EDITORS.

Henry Watterson has been summing
up the situation with regard to a union
of the Twin Cities, and reaches these
conclusions: Whatever the name may
be, st. Paul and Minneapolis. if united,
will make great city, probably destined
in time to rank next in population to
New York and Chicago. They already
have more than 100000 inhabitants, and
in fifteen years may have three-quarters
of million" ."-Carlton Vidette.
SO
Why wouldn't it be a good idea to
agitate the advisability of organizing
worlds fair clubs in all the larger cities
and towns in Minnesota? These clubs
could be made of great deal of benefit
in the way of collecting information and
conducting arrangements for the accom-
modation of the people in their respect

The appropriation made for the Min

but if it is wisely and economically used
it may yet be made to do very well. Let
the amount appropriated be used for

CURES IN COLORADO.

While the controversy is on locally
and otherwise as to the remedial agent
that is claimed to reverse the taste for
alcoholics, it may be noted that sani-
tarium at Denver claims to have made
a success of DR.. KoCH's consumption
cure, although the German scientist
seems to have abandoned ii as failure.
The local papers give conspicuous at
testation to this claim, and cite many
alleged instances of it's success in the
past six months. Denver is in an alti-
tude regarded as particularly favorable
to lung diseases, and it may be that
peculiar conditions have contributed to
the results. 1t would be an anomaly if
the failure of the discoverer had led to
the extraction of the merit Of the thing

THE sTATEs no STOP TBE

THE STATES TO STOP THEM.
The census bureau has given a good
deal of time and artistic labor to the
preparation of its maps marking the
westward movement of population. By
particular coloring the representation
shows approximately the percentage of
increase or decrease in the population
of every county in the United States.
A glance indicates the general fact that
the West has been pulling the popular
life in its direction. Perhaps, however,
the most striking fact shows is the fire.
Quency with which the light shade ap-
pears. showing falling away in num-
bers. even pretty well out West. The
Mississippi river has been regard
ed we'll toward the West, but
these light shades are frequent even
west of it. A line running down
from the northern boundary, through
the central part of this state and
Iowa. to the gulf, would be west
of about all the counties that have
lost population. There are few coun-
ties in the southeastern part of Mime
sofa that have the faded shades, and
they are more numerous in Eastern
Iowa, and show up in the big river part
of Missouri. Texas has losses, too, on
the gulf side. East of the Mississippi
there is hardly state that has not sew
cral counties that have lost popula-
ton. IlliSois, Michigan, Wisconsin
and Indiana are not exceptions.
In fact, about the only eXcep-
tions to this loss are the districts
that have been developing manu-
featuring and mining industries. There
are 455 counties that have diminished
numbers, few due to division of terri
tory, but over 500 have actually less
population than decade ago. This is,
however, but temporary transitional
state. The fresh, cheap lands and other
inducements have drawn away not only
the surplus, but touched the principal
of the old districts. But the continent
has been crossed, and the good lands
west of this state and the Dakotas
mostly absorbed. These states will be
the halting ground of the migration of
the future far more than of that of re-
cent years. They will grow in wealth
and numbers as they have not been
doing for years.
