The South's Farm Income.

Interesting disclosures are made in
recent census reports as to the in
crease in farms in this country, for the
past decade.
There was a sharp relative decline
in the increase from that. of the two
ten-year periods previous to the last
census, the increase for the United
States being only one and five tenths
per cent.
This is accounted for by the great
drift of the population to the cities and
by the cutting down of immigration as
a result of the war
In the South, however, the increase
was much greater than in any part of
the country. taken as a whole. Every
southern state, except Alabama and
Mississippi, reported an increase in the
number of farms opened during the
past ten years. Florida now has $4,000
farms, an increase of eight per cent
for the past ten years. Georgia has
310.737 farms, an increase of six and
eight tenths per cent. Kentucky has
270,676, an increase of four and four
tenths per cent. louisiana tops the
list with an increase of twelve and
four tenths per cent, having 1886
farms. North Carolina has 269,740
farms; an increase of six and three
tenths per cent South Carolina, 1922
664, an increase of nine and two tenths
per cent. Tennessee has 252,691 an in
crease of two and seventh tenths per
cent. Texas has 435,666, an increase
of four and three tenths per cent. Vir-
ginia has 1901, an increase of one
and one tenth per cent.
All this indicates that the South is
coming into its own again as a farm
ing center. and it also indicates that
in the South there is not that great
drift to the aities that is threatening
the stability and the prosperity of the

/. But this revelation of the real big

Revelations
of Wife
BY ADELE GARRISON.

How Mrs. Underwood Solved the
Riddle.
When Lillian Underwood told me
that years before she had given up
her baby daughter in payment for her
husbands withdrawal of Dicky's name
as CO. respondent in his suit against
her for divorce, my first impulse was
one of horror stricken sympathy for
her.
Then came the reaction. A flaming
jealousy enveloped me from head to
foot.
How she must have loved Dicky
to do this for him. The thought beat
upon my brain like sledge hammer.
Don't think that, my dear, for 1t
isn't true" 1 had not spoken, but

vine the thoughts of other people she
