MUST PRODUCE MORE.

Still higher will go the prices OF
foodstuns before they go lower, is the
belief OF w. c. Brown. president Of the
New York Central Railway. The rea-
son is that the country is not produc-
ing as much food as is required or is
capable Of producing.
Such is the truth. There is call
for action. such as putting foodstuffs
on the free list. and prohibiting COM
binations from dealing in foodstuffs.
Such devices may help some, but at
the best they are palliatives and expe-
dents. All the politics in the world
will not cause two blades Of grass 10
grow where only one grows, nor two
bushels of potatoes to be gathered
where only one is produced.
Only tillage, intelligent labor on the
farm. proper treatment of land. can do
that But that viii not be done in suf-
fcient measure until our young men
and women get tired Of herding in
towns and enduring the hardship Of
high prices and not so high wages. AS
Mr.. Brown points out, the East ought
TO be producing fifty per cent of the
food it is consuming and not five per
cent
our position is not analogous TO
.Germany's. German land is producing
all the food Of which IT is capable, but
that is not enough to supply sixty five
million mouths. Whereas America is
not producing nearly as much food as
she can. and consequently we are suf-
fering Germany stimulates her agri-
culture TO the utmost, but ours in great
measure languishes. The causes of
German and American distress differ,
and consequently the remedies to be
applied do not agree.
The remedy for us lies not in poll
tics. The remedy is an economic one.
And in order TO apply the remedy,
change Of mind viii be required. The
lure Of the bright lights Of the cities
will have to become less attractive
than the quiet joys Of the farm house.

According to an article i'm the Revue
the number of Protestants i'm France is
decreasing. They now number 7O0,
900. The Lutherans, who numbered
more than a quarter of n million in
1870. can now boast of a member
ship Of only 10000 i'm France. The
Calvinists are the most numerous sect
left. numbering over half a million.
But they are losing ground. At the
same time the political influence of
the French Protestants is out of ali
proportion to their numbers. This the
writer attributes to their sturdy char
acters, to their superior system of
education, and, above all, to their great
wealth. Their wealth has, however.
tended to sap their exclusiveness. They
now pay less attention to their religion,
and the result is says the writer in the
Revue, that Professionalism in France
will, in the near future, be a thing of
the past. This is a rather bold conclu-
sion, and IL would be interesting TO
know If this alleged decrease in the
Hugenots is correct.--Westmins Ca
