partnent Of the national life. ] believe

fects.

PoaOFFIcE BUILDINGS Fer Towns
! favor such legislation as would au-
tomaticaIly provide postofiice buildings
for all towns, based ON their gross receipts
from $1,000 to $50, 900. it shond not be
necessary for q special bill to be in
troduced for each town when postohice
building il needed. A general bill, such
as favor, would automatically authorize
building to cost the amount justified by
the gross receipts of the Office at that
aaint. The demand for labor and ma
terial thus created would givs rise to q
very desirable industrial activity. In
case OF necessity the government could
float bonds for this purpose at 2per cent.
AT present, in many instances, it is pay
ing 10 per cent rental for bindings used

FoR BETTER AGRICULTURAL CONDITIONS.
In this connection would cali atten
ton to the fact that 10 years following
the census of 1900 the population Of the
United States increased p per cent, but /
the number of farms did net keep pace
with this increase in population. Meas
ured by the number of farms agriculture
exhibits diminished rate OF increase,
and in large areas Of the country are
stationary. Yet, notwith-
standing this fact there has been an IN
crease Of II7.4 per cent in the value oiall
land in iarns The average value OF
farm land per acre increased, during the
ten years period indicated, los. Z per
cent. In this connection it is interesting
70 note that there has been mnch more
rapid increase in urban than in rural
