One Hundred and One Million.

The population of the United States is now
somewhat in excess of one hundred and million,
two hundred and eight thousand. This announce
ment by the Census Bureau is based, of course, on
the past rate of increase with due allowance for
cidental changes, such a diminished immigration
since the European war. The figures conserva-
tive. Only one country of Europe has a greater
number of inhabitants; the population of the Rus
sian Empire is estimated at one hundred and sew
enty-one million. With that exception, the United
States is incomparably in the lead, as far as the
occidental world is concerned.
The most remarkable aspect of thisS record,
think the Springfield Republican, is that it is 'only
a halfway house on the road"
THE resources of the United States are so
great its soil So rich, it's real wealth incom-
petely developed that territory can be re-
garded as not more than half occupied. But
to the thinking mind, population of hun
dred million in itself does not mean the assur-'
ance of impregnability at all. 1t suggests
rather the task of rendering secure such a her
itage as possess. 1t suggests strongly the
duty of making these millions safe as we'll as
happy"
In 1900 the population of the United States
numbered only five million, three hundred and
eight thousand; in 1850 twenty-three million, one
hundred and ninety-one thousand; in 1880, fifty
million, hundred and ffty-fve thousand; in
1900 seventy-ive million, nine hundred and nine
ty-four thousand; in 1915, it was estimated at one
hundred million, two hundred and sixty-four thou
sand. In this year of vast numbers and vast re-
sources and crowding dangers, it is we'll to turn in
thought TO the spirit of the FIVE million Americans
who bore the burdens and kept the faith of the
Republics dawn.

The Way to Prosperity.

The interests of the South in the year 1916
commercial and agricultural alike, depend pri-
mariy on the the farmers pursue in the
season now at hand. A restricted acreage of cot
ton with an abundant production of foodstutfs
prosperity. An excessive crop of cotton with
a shortage of foodstuffs means calamity.
Even if there war in Europe and world
conditions normal, the South should be none
the less conservative in planting cotton and none
the less energetic in raising grain and meat The
first principles of efficient agriculture demand that
a farm, far possible, be self-sustaining and
that the resources of the soil be conserved by a
wise diversihcaton of crops. If ever the South is
to achieve the great destiny which nature has al
lotted it, this policy must be followed.
But today there peculiar circumstances
that make diversfcation imperative The worlds
consumption of cotton is curtaed and will continue
so until the war, whose end no man can foresee is
over. A considerable part of the enormous surplus
brought over from the seventeen million-bale crop
of 1914 is still on hand. The short crop of 1915,
it is true did much to relieve the situation and to
effect an improvement in prices. But another big
crop this year would overbaance all the gains that
have been made, would depresr the market to star
walton figures again. and would invite if not &C
tualy precipitate conditions even distressing
than those which befe us two years ago.
The one way to avert this misfortune is to plant
forage and vegetables. If that is done the South
will be prosperous and secure whatever may betide
in distant lands. ..
