The city of Rosario is the Chicago Of

ships thousands of tons of wheat, corn
and linseed every week. Rosario is sit,

Buenos Ayres into the mouth of the Pa

SHOW A HEALTHY GROWTH,
Eastern Towns Have No Reason to i
Ashamed of Their Progress.

Eastern Towns Have No Reason to Be
Ashamed of Their Progress.
The rapid growth of the cities of New
England and middle Atlantic States is
perhaps the most striking revelation yet
made by the twelfth decennial
census. OF the 159 cities of the coun-
try having population of more than
25,000, about eighty had made greater
numerical gain in the ten years just
closed than in the ten years preceding.
Since it gees without saying, also, that
about the same number grew faster
than the ayerage-32.5 per cent-it is
interesting to ascertain from study of
the bulletin where these cities are, con-
sidered by sections. Such a study af-
fords an admirable test of urban
growth and reveals in a striking man
ner the remarkable progress of the
northwestern part of the country.
| OF the eleven cities in the South At
lantic group of States only three grew
faster than the average for the coun-
try. These were Atlanta, Norfolk and
Jacksonville. In the south central re-
gion only seven out of eighteen grew
faster than the average. In the west
ern group six out of the twelve grew
faster than the average. In the north
central group, comprising the States
north of the Ohio, the old free States,
with the addition of Missouri, twenty
two cities out of forty-eight made more
than average progress. With the coun-
try thus divided into five great sections.
none of the four SO far mentioned shows
Il group of cities in which more than
half were growing faster than the av-
erage. The remaining section is the
north Atlantic; in 1t forty-two out of
seventy cities have grown faster than
32.5 per cent. In Connecticut all five

ing above the average and this can be
said of no other State in the Union, ex-
cept Rhode Island, in which all three
did the same thing. In New Jersey
seven out of ten cities We're above the
average; in Pennsylvania there were
eleven out of eighteen; in Maine one out
of one, Portland, and in Massachusetts,
eleven out of twenty.
1t should be borne in mind that the
actual growth Of the cities in the north
central region was faster, due to the
presence of few cities on the great
lakes, but the number of cities to show
this tendency was, as already indicated
less than in the north Atlantic States.
The stagnant cities are found in three
regions, in Eastern Nebraska, Northern
Michigan and at the headquarters OF
the Hudson. Omaha, Lincoln and
Sioux City belong to the first group
Saginaw and Bay City to the second
and Troy and Albany to the third. As
general rule the cities have grown
faster in the regions of coal beds or OF
well-utilized water power. - Boston

and he has to rely upon the railroads for
getting it to the markets. The wheat is
carried to the cars from such farms al
are far from the railroad in bullock carts,
the wheels of which are about eight feet
high. A load weighing several tons is
balanced between couple of these
wheels, and from dozen to sixteen bull
locks are harnessed in front Of it. In
some few Of the large farms modern ma
chinery is used, and the threslling is COM
monty done with European or American
threshers.
The Argentine is subject to droughts,
and the crop rises and falls according to
the weather. The worst thing, however,
| that the farmers have to contend with
is the locusts. The pests that infest
the Argentine are fully as bad MS the To-
Gust plague with which the Lord afflicted
Pharaoh. The only difference was that
Pharaoh had his locusts for few days,
but the Argentine seems to be having
| theirs as regular thing. The locusts
are produced by the millions every year,
and swarm thinks nothing of flight of
50O miles from its breeding ground
through the heart of the wheat country.
The locusts appear in great swarms,
which often darken the sun If they fly be-
| tween you and it. They light on every
| thing green and begin eating. The
branches of the trees bend down with
their weight. and you can hear the snap
ping of their jaws as they crunch the
leaves. They will clean the crops from
the fields, eating the grain down to the
ground Sometimes they will take the
green wheat from one side of the road
and pass by that on the other, and they
sometimes fly on and on for days over
rich fields to feed on those beyond. The
next swarm may cat that which is left.
This pest of the locust has been so
great that the Argentine government has
been spending large sums of money to
| get rid of them. The methods for ex-
| terminating them are many and costly.
Thousands of dollars are spent every
year to kill them. They are caught in
traps Of corrugated iron. They are scoop
ed up with scrapers md killed; poisons
are used, and the grass, plants.an weeds
| are sprinkled with arsenic, kerosene and
creosote. They are caught in bags, driv-
4 en- into bitches and ire killed in all sorts
of ways. In 1896 it is estimated that
| $50, 600, 600 worth of wheat was destroy
| ed by locusts in two states of the Argen-
tine. This impoverished the farmers OF
those states, aud the national government
spent $10,000,O00 that year in giving
them seed wheat. If the locusts are ia
come every year it will be long time
before the Argentine can have serious
permanent effect upon the wheat market
of the world.

The recent storm on the Atlantic

nous old schooner Polly, which was

men, for 1t was built in Amesbury,

ten years it has almost trebled its popu-
lation. 1t has now about 10000 people.
1t does big wholesale and retail bust
ness. but the most of its money comes
from wheat.
!. The wheat is baggcd on the farm. The
cars carry it to the edge of the bluff, and
Italian laborers take the bags and pitch
them into chutes leading to the vessels.
The bags-fy down one after the other at
the rate of several to the minute. at
harvest time the wheat becomes congest-
ed at Rosario The railroads have more
than they can do to carry the crop, and
almost all other traffic has to be suspend
ed. The result is that the wheat is niled
up in bags at the stations and left there
until it can be shipped. There are no
barns in the Argentine. The weather is
such that the stock feeds out of doors
the year around. There is no chance for
the farmer to store his wheat in barns
