Saratoga, April IA regrettable fact in connec-

that the farmer has not shared in the material
benefits flowing from it to the extent that they
have been enjoyed by the other elements Of the
Dol ulation The great tide of National prosperity,
which is rolling on with ever increasing volume,
failed, at least for time, to include him in its
magnificent sweep For years he seemed to stand
on the bank. apparently helpless, while his neigh
bors, tho mechanic, the merchant and the manu-
facturer, were carried away the food that leads
TO more desirable conditions Of life. II was par
ticularly hard for him to endure this feeling. as
he did, that it was not due to any fault on his
part. He laborcd unremittngly he the
embodiment Of industry. putting forth every effort
TO maintain the position in the race which be-
lOnged to him. but try as he would the result
was unfavorable. The net returns from his farm
came more burdensome and worst of all, his
property decreased steadily in value. Its de-
probation, and the deporable features attending
1t, attracted widespread attention, and finally lod

Of this article which seeks merely to call attention

remedial agencies which is quietly at work, and
which seems destined to play important part
