pENMARk's DESERTED FARMS.
BEING Reclaimed in Manner inter-
esting in New England.

The Howard association has pub
lished an interesting letflet entitled
Back to the Land-Denmark' Ex-
ample. In that country there is an
exodus of the population of the towns
back to the land. Partly by state
aid, and partly by private enterprise,
1000 squire miles of waste land have
been reclaimed. and five-eights of the
national territory is possessed by
small freeholders and peasants Above
hundred peoples high schools have
been established, where peasantry and
working classes of ages from 10 to
25 get board and education for 10
shillings per week. e
The Danish farmers have formed
cooperative societies for the col
lection, sale and export of their pro-
duce. Danish university and col
lege students have instituted through
out the rural districts free lectures,
evening lessons and committees for
promoting popular amusements In
almost every village where the high
school has obtained influence, neither
drinking, gambling nor gross breaches
of morals are met with; yet the vii
layers are fond of games, dancing,
sports and other recreations.
And what is the result? Denmark
has become the second country in the
world in regard to average wealth per
head, although there are very few
rich men, She annually supplies the
British market with more than 1,O00,-
900 hundredweight Of butter and the
same amount of bacon, about 200 ,O0O,-
900 eggs and scores of thousands of
pigs, cattle and horses.
Surely we might take example by
this. This produce might equally well
be brought into existence in England.
But it never will be so long as our
wretched system of education pre-
walls in villages, so long as villagers
are divorced from all property in land,
and so long as village life remains the
dull, dreary thing it is. Let anyone
only consider what might have been
done for the rural population with the
| 9100,000,000 that has been spent in
relieving the oppressed millionaires
in the Transvaal.-London Truth.
