AID TO AGRICULTURE.
The United States Very Modest in the

Assistance Rendered.
Washington, June 15.-(Special)--
Every time a Congress has an agri-
cultural appropriation pending, mem
bers from the metropolitan districts,
gentlemen whose urban experience ad-
monishes them they alone possess real
cosmopolitan wisdom. protest against
the extravaganza of throwing away
money for farming experiments.
Indeed they rather look upon an ag-
ricultural appropriation as throwing
money at birds. 1t was the same way
with them when the boil weevil ap-
preparation was asked for. Yet 1t seems
that the United States. in view of the
fact that we have the greatest agri-
cultural country on the globe, spends
very modest sums for the beneit of
farming.
pertinent communication on the
subject of government aid to agricul-
ture has just come to the Department
of Justice from United States Consul
Richard Guenther, at Frankfort, Ger
many, which is used as a bulletin as
below:
German papers state that the gov
eminent aid to agriculture per an
mum amounts for Russia to $4,000, 900 /;
for France, Austria. and Hungary,
about $S,50O,0OO each; for the United
States. about $4,000, 600; and for ia
pan, over $2.50O.000.
If the amount for Austria be given
at 30. the figures for France would be
20. Russia 8. and the United States less
than g..
In proportion to population Hun
gary contributes most-about IS cents
per capita-followed by Austria and
France with a much smaller amount
from the United States.
Russia has 102 agricultural expert
mental stations, the United States so,
and Belgium Is "a very high figure
proportionately) Germany and France
are said to have a larger number of
such stations in proportion to popuIa-
ton than the United States. where, as
these papers say, complaint is made
of late that agriculture receives a dis
proportionate share of governmental
aid. r. H. Watkins
