In France or in England, for ex-
ample the specie reserves of the
whole country are concentrated very
largely in the vaults Of a central bank.
The Bank of France and the Bank
of England occupy an Independent po-
sition and are dominated by outside
interests that can involve them in
the fortunes of special enterprises.
Sobered and steadied at all times by
an appreciation of the enormous moral
responsibility that rests upon them
the managers of these institutions
adhere to their ultra-conservative
policy even when the spirit of specu-
lation is rampant in other financial
circles. Against its enormous de-
posits the Bank of England main
tains cash reserve of over fifty per
cent, while the position Of the Bank
of France is even stronger; when
therefore, other banks experience
demand for ready money, relief can
be quickly afforded by these central
institutions. And it is only through
such conservatism as these banks dis
play in periods of prosperity that they
can contribute to the stability in times
of stress and storm. When it is re
membered that the reserves of the
New York banks seldom exceed very
greatly the twenty-five per cent. limit
which has been established by law
and by custom, the contrast between
American and French or English con-
ditions becomes at once apparent. For
an independent bank, which is free
to seek its own safety at the approach
of danger, a reserve of twenty-five
per cent should ordinarily prove to
be ample; but for institutions that
aspire to the rank of central banks
such a safeguard must be wholly in

mathematical corollary of the fact
mat the farm acreage increased fast
er than the number of farms. It has
already been pointed out. however,
that the additions to the farm acreage
included large tracts of unimproyed
land in the Western States. used as
grazing farms. While this has ma
terlally affected the average size of
farms for the country as a whole. in
the older portions of the country there
are no indications of any general
movement toward a consolidation of
farms, or of any tendency on the part
OF farmers toward the cultivation of
larger farms In the Northern States
east of the Mississippi River there
was no very marked change in the
size OF farms. Massachusetts. Rhode
Island, Pennsylvania, New Jersey.
Ohio. Indiana and Illinois showed a
slight diminution in the average farm
area, while the other States in this
region showed slight increase. In
the Southern States east of the Miss
issippi, on the other hand the in
crease in the number of farms far
exceeded the increase in farm area.
and consequently the average size of
farms was materially diminished.
Only one-half of the total farm
acreage in 1900 was reported as i'm
proved, but this represents a gain
over 1890 of 57,176,436 acres. Most
of this increase in Che crop producing

the States of the Middle West. the
greatest extension being shown in

lahoma. On the other hand. in many
States the area of improved farm land
was smaller in 1900 than in 1890. A
decrease is shown in all the North
Atlantic States, especially in New
England. This is due principally to
a change in the kind of farming car
ried on in those States; the raising
of corn and wheat for the market,
having become comparatively unprofit-
able under the influence of Western
competition, has been largely super
seeded by dairy farming and market
gardening. In these pursuits which
are, of course, stimulated by the
proximity of a large urban popula-
ton, the Eastern farmer apparently
finds it to his advantage to cultivate
less land than he once did, but to
cultivate it more intensively. Accord
ingly, the less fertile lands, and the
meadow lands that cannot be mown
with machines, have in many cases
been converted into permanent past
ures. The increased average fertility
of the land retained under cultivation
the use of the silo, and the growing
tendency to cultivate corn and forage
crops, instead of hay, for winter feed,
are all factors which contribute to
the same enabling the farmer to
raise on a smaller area the winter
feed for thu animals that can be kept
during the summer. on the enlarged
area of pasture land.-From the Hon.
