Adopted by tho New York Charities
Conference.

Adopted by tho New York Charities
Conference.
New York. March 19.-Thc New York
Charities conference has decided to
adopt the scheme OF potato farms for
the poor which was lnaugurated By
Mayor Pingree OF Detroit last summer.
A committee has been appointed to ear

them up into patches Of onc-ihlrd of
an acre for each family. Potatoes for
planting and other vegetable seeds will
be furnished. Each man must then
attend to his little farm nnd all the
products nrc his own.
Mr.. william Stcinway has offered
the use of tract OF land containing
200 acres In Long Island City, and
May Hcwett gives large tract In In.
wood, Columbia college donates seven
acres OF Its new site on Morning slde
heights. All these offers were recclv.
cd before any other public appeal was
made, and Il In expected that thous-
ands Of acres will be rendered when
asked for.
New York has large area OF unoc-
cupled land. According TO census
taken by Postmaster Dayton through
the letter carriers there are 17,329 VA.
cant lots. containing over 1000 acres.
below West One Hundred and Forty

the annexed district are many thous.
ands OF acres that the committee ex-
pect to be offered for the summers use.
