GOING SOUTH.

From the Chicago News. The latest
colonization enterprise was originated In
Madison county. Indiana, and some fifty
fan lilies from there will go to Southern
Alabama this fall. The members of the
company are well-to-do and fairly pios-
porous. as farmers in that section inva.
riably are. There is little doubt but
that the extension of transportation facil-.
tiles in this country has considerably
modified Northern agricultural pursuits.
Now the people of Northern cities are
supplied with vegetables and fruits OF all
kinds from Southern points, and by the
time the Northern farmer has an oppor-
tunity to put his own products on the
market the demand for them has passed
and the earlier grown products from the
South meet the demands SO that the
Southern producer is always little ahead
OF the Northern at his own door. This
has practically destroyed all lighter
branches of agricultural industry at the
North and increased the heavier, more
burdensome and less remuneratiye sort.
