SECOND CRY IN WORLD.
New York Expects the State Census
to Give It That Position
When Taken.

New York.-There is little doubt that
the state census will show that New
York city has population of AGO.
600, A forevast based upon the re-
suit ,of the last census indicates
that Manhattan Brooklyn together
will be found to- have about
1870, ,0OO,. the Bronx about 325,OOO
Queens about 100000, and Richmond
about 10000. The sum of these appor-
tionments is 4,071 900. The shrinkage
will hardly be so much that the total
will fall materially below 1000, 900.
New York may not pass London and
become the largest city in the world, as
some enthusiasts prophesy, but it is
easy the second largest city on the
globe, having taken that position from
Paris during the last few years. By the
census of 1901 Paris had population of
2,174,000. 1t probably, has not far, if at
all, passed 100000. :
Berlin is growing with greater rela-
tive rapidity than Paris, having a pop
ulation of nearly 100000, but it would
be miracle if the German capital out
stripped New York during the. next
quarter or half century During recent
years this city has been gaining at the
rate of about three per cent per annum
The housing of the yearly addition. of
100000 to the population of the metrop-
oils has been a very difficult problem,
but has been pretty well solved by the
multiplication of apartment-houses.
With the completion of tunnels and sub
ways, new bridges, and new trolley
lines, a general movement to the sub
urbs is expected, and probably will take
place, but nearly all of these desirable
suburban places are within the limits
of greater New York.

WOMAN SAVES EIGHT LIVES


3 Ansonia, Conn.-Mrs Frederick G..

Jumped from a high embankment into

eighty year-old Antonio, Yankoski from

| He is the eighth person this brave
woman has dragged from the canal
during her residence in this city. The
boy had been playing along the steep
embankment, which slopes to the
canal, lost his balance and rolled into
the water: Hearing the cries of the
other children, Mrs. Ware ran from the
house. d. II. VI
AS she reached the bank the little

Washington. Restoring q WORKOUT
.'oil to q fertile condition without the
nd of animal manures or commercial
/ .:ertilizer is the task the United States
department. of agriculture has set for
tself on its Arlington farm, just across
:he Potomac from Washington. r.. :.
This farm. originally part of the
Gen. Robert E. Lee estate, consists
-.of 300 acres of rolling upland and 200
acres Of Potomac river bottom. The
latter is covered by water at high tide
Stones were hauled off, gullies part
ly filled by blowing in soil, and tiles
laid where needed The real work of
restoring the soil then began.
The system adopted is sometimes
spoken of as green manuring." That
Is, crops are grown especially to be
ploWed under. Nearly all soils have
enough plant food in them to enable
plants to make good growth, provided
this food is in available FORM. With
wornout soils the soluble plant food
has been used up. To restore such
soils to productive conditions, either
plant food must be supplied in manures
or fertilizers, or the insoluble plant
food rendered soluble.
1t is now known that when we have
decaying vegetable matter in soil,
humic acid is formed, which acts as
solvent on plant food insoluble in
water. G. -..,
Hence, while plowing under crop
grown on the land may add nothing
new to the soil, it does put it into
condition more suitable to growing
plants.
The principal crops used on. the
Arlington farm as manure crops are
rye and cow peas. Rye is sown in the
early fall and allowed to grow till
about May 1. 1t is then plowed under
and COW peas sown. AS the latter plant
Is legume, it gathers nitrogen from
the soil and air, hence to this extent
adds to the soil. .,s,,. =.
After treatment in this way till the
soil is thoroughly filled with humus,
that is, decaying organic matter, it is
ready to grow good crops, and the
Arlington farm is now reaching that
condition. Some very good crops of
hay have been produced, and fruit
trees planted out on the farm are
making fine growth.
This farm is to be used entirely for
experimental work, especially in horti-
culture and plant breeding. All va
rieties of fruits and garden plants that
will grow in that section, as we'll as
all new plants, are to be thoroughly
tested here.

THE PASSING OF THE HOME.
One of the Saddest Phenomena of Modern City Life,

One of the saddest Phenomena of Modern City Life.
 A home is tract of ground, big or little partly occupied by some kind of , dwelling house and otherwise filled
 with flowers. trees, vegetable gardens, the bric-a-brac of a backyard, or any thing else, so only that some space of
 mother earth may remain whereon the children of the family may disport themselves, where the illusions of childhood may transform woOdpiles into great ships, clotheslines into tele- graphs, beanpoles into armies. old sticks into horses. and washt,lbs into chariOts. and in which. as the twilight comes on and the shadows deepen, living forms. to the childish imagina- tion. seem to hover and fit in the gloom from one dark corner to anoth- or. Above all. for all purposes of en- joyment or occupation. it is ones very own. the one spot where none else
 may come uninvited, but which to him stands ever open, the scene of his happiest hours. his refuge in time of trouble. Within the memory of men still young no family in America. out side of few congested districts in large cities, was without home of that kind. The dwelling house upon it might be cabin. q cottage or q mansion. '|ut, such as it was. it was the owned or rented possession of one family, held sacred to the use of its members from the center of the earth to the clouds above. It was the home.
 The passing of the home is the sad dest phenomenon of modern city life. The tenement house which We seek to disguise under the name of flat" is most wretched substitute for the humblest of homes. That our people endure them is an indication of de- generacy. as it will un1uestionably be the cause of a more rapid descent. It is morally certain that the vigor of the race can be maintained only by personal contact with the mother cart from which we sprang, which nOurishes and sustains us while we live. and which receives us to her
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1905-01-04

bosom when we die. Why this is. i perhaps no one knows. but 1t is with
 in the knowledge of all that the vigor
 of the city is constantly recruited from country life. To deprive chill dren of daily contact with the soil is a sin.
 The evil of the tenement house was
 not realized until it passed from the slums, because few of us know how the other half lives. It is perhaps not so desperate a misfortune to those who live by manual labor, for they get their contact with earth in other ways. and their children. less vexed by the conventions of society, find access to
 the soil by some means, and pass.
 while still young. to the occupations of their parents. The most terrible ef- feet of the tenement house is in the families of the 'salariei'' class las dis tinguished from the wage earners." and who fit from flat to flat. seldom remaining long enough anywhere for home associations to be formed. There 1 can perhaps be no home associations
 worthy of the name which are not con | nected with a piece of open ground in
 the sole possession of the family, It ! would seem that in our largest cities l this privilege can no longer be enjoyed except by the rich. A recent editorial on the subject in the New York Times states that during the year 1903 only | fifty-six single houses were erected in
 that city. estimated to cost less than S3 OM.000." This indicates that the average cost of real home in that city is more than $5O,OOO, and. of course. out of reach of any but the
 very well to do. Land has become too
 valuable" to be devoted to such pur- poses. To secure an income from the land its rental must be divided among such a number of families as can carry the load by united effort. and they are packed in. over and under each other and by side by side. until the requisite force is assembled. In
 this city until recently the three fiat"
 abominatiOn has been the usual limit
 for "genteel" people. Now regular ten
 ement houses are being erected in the
 pleasanter parts of the city, in which
 childless couples huddle in four hoom | apartments" It is not good,-Sau Francisco Chronicle.
