Gooseberries and a Cat. b.

Not long ago the officials Of the De-
partment Of Agriculture were much
amused by letter sent the department
by an occasional correspondent in Vlr.
ginia. Among other things the writer
hastened to advise Secretary Wilson
to this effect:

NEW YORK OF THE FUTURE.
The Vast Probabilities of the Coming
Population OF the Metropolis.

The Vast Probabilities of the Coming
Population Of the Metropolis.
Greater New York will have a popu.
lation of 6191, $50 in 1920, according
to a sober prediction made by an
engineer Of national reputation. Ac"
cording to the figures on which he
bases his estimate this means an in
crease in the population Of the metro
polls Of 2,357.251 inhabitants. If one
can imagine a monster city, rs large
as London with all its environs, a city
capable of containing the combined
populations of Paris, Berlin, st, Peters,
burg, Dublin, Butte, Montana, and
Paterson, n. j., or, TO take another
view a city with a population within
100000 as large as that Of the State
Of Pennsylvania, or one as large as
the combined populations of Alabama,
Indiana, Wyoming. North Dakota and
Hawaii, one may obtain an idea Of the
immensity expressed in these seven
figures. If we add to this the posi-
bilities Of a series Of wonderful trans
portation systems, uniting almost
within the hour New York and Phia-
delphia, with its increased population
Of 100000, into practically one
mighty municipality, with a chain of
big New Jersey cities like Jersey City
with 100000, Newark with 100000,
Elizabeth with 10000, and a score Of
smaller places, we may have a vision
Of the future more marvellous than the
dreams Of the mcst daring romancer.
