The same period wit nessed an increase in national population from 23(191,876 to 70,30.3,387, and in that of cities with 8,(XXI inhabitants and over, from 2,897,586 to 25,031,505. Notwithstanding this unprecedented growth in city or urban population, the increase in the number of farms was relatively greater than the increase in population. In 1850 there was one farm for every 16 persons in the United States, in ilHJO there was one for every 13.3 persons. In proportion to the population, therefore, there were six farms in 1900 where there were only 5 in 1850, representing an addition of one farm for every 12.4 persons added to the national popula-1 tion. Considering only those living outside of cities of 8,OOOor more inhabitants, there was in 1850 one farm for every 14 persons; in 1!XX) the proportion was one farm for every 8.9 persons. Compared with the non-urban population there were nearly twice as many farms established during the last 50 years as there was during the period between the settlement of Jamestown and 1850. This large actual and relative increase in the number of farms since 1850 is a fact of social importance, and is reflected in all the statistics of agriculture. C. M. FEICHT& CO., Druggists.

Weeks, the sanitary engineer, is conducting a vigorous campaign for t he extermination of the mosquitoes in the southern portions of Brooklyn, the cooperation of the public in the good work is indispensible to its success. In localities where the malaria-bearing mosquitoes of the famous anopheles varietv have their breeding grounds, the most determined efforts have been made with very encouraging results. But the undertaking is one which requires persistent and radical measures. The regulations of the board of health require that no rainwater barrel or cistern shall be maintained without being tightly screened by netting or so absolutelv covered that 110 mosquito can enter it, no waste or other water shall be thrown out or allowed to stand 011 or near the premises, and every cesspool tank must be kept in such condition that oil may be freely distributed and flow over the surface of the water.—N.

Lady Assistants. In the short time the Health Institute has been in operation we have given over seven hundred treatments. Our success in them justifies us in saying that we can cure even long standing cases, if we get a fair chance at them. We do not feel able to heal an ailment of years of standing in a few treatments. But in practically every case where we have had a fair chance we have done great good and often have worked results that seemed almost miraculous. We have the names of grateful patients in proof of these statements for all proper inquiries. Write for terms of treatment; or better, come and try the new, safe and efficient Methods of Scientific Sanitarium Cure and be convinced by a satisfving personal experience. Rev. R. M. Coultku, A.
