The Chicago Tribune's statisticof crime in the United States for 1894 are not encouraging. Mindere numbered 9,800 -about 50 per cent. more than in 1893, and treble what they were ten years ago. Suicides numbered 4,912- a marked increase. Of lynchings only 190 are reported, against 200 in 1893, but there is reason for thinking that there are many lynchings the details of -which are not now made public. The following are the number of muiders, executions and lynchings reported in the -United States in the past six _ years, ;47. , • • ... 7. :-... . ' 4. ., urders, Executacns.

The benefit of industries to the ag- ricuiteral community under a trade policy of protection has been pointed out time and time again, That the local market is the farmer's best mar- ket for popular prices is admitted, and the employees of industries go to make up the demand in the local market. In a recent speech at Niagara Falls, Dr. Montague'illustrated a benefit:of man- ufactories to agricultural lands clearly. He aid:s*gar.a 1 fray then, to the farmers ot tins country, that we may have a mixed population. Mr. Laurier has told you that the prices of land have been. re- duced, but tell me, tell the Liberal leader this :-That wherever there is a manufacturing town the price of land is higher in that -vicinity than in any other vicinity. The 'astatistician of the United States of divided the States the union into four classes. In the first of these classes 18 per cent. of the people are engaged in agriculture; in the second 42 per cent were engaged in agriculture; in the third, 58 per. ent. and in the fourth, the people were almost wholly agricultural, viz., 77 per cent. Now what were the prices of land in these States? In the place where only 18 per cent. of the peopls were engaged in agriculture, where there was a mixed industry, and where the farmers had a market among the artisans who were engaged in these industries, the land was worth on an average $38.65 per acre. Let me give the farmers a prac- tical illustration. You would be de- lighted if 1 would come in here with 200 men to work in a,factory inThagara Falls and help to consume your agric- ultural products, would you not ? Liberals and Cotsetvatiyes would be delighted, bemuse a market for your produce means a better price for yonr land. You would not be much pleased if I were to bring in 200 more farmers to crowd you and giye you more com- petition. What you want are more mouths to feed and more Viands to supply. And yet what do the Liberal Party say when we talk about these industries 7 They say : "If these men cannot maintain themselves 'without protection, let them Lake up farming, as we are farniing." If they did take it up they 'would increase your com- petition, and when they are withdrawn from the industries of Canada, they destroy to a great extent your own home market.

The, 1iee4 wintered wetland came out in spring with few losses, but . the cold and Wet weather following drove them back • to their hives and compelled them to litre on their winter stores with the result that they weto exhausted before the weather became favorable for the gathering of a fresh supply and in consequence many died of starvation: The survivors gather- ed but little clot er lioney and other blooms being cut short by the drougbt, the result was lietle more than half a crop.

The wheat ;Situation, Writing in tb-e Country Gentleman Mr. Henry Stewart, a well-knewn authority on agriculture. says that according to the present conditions of btheeenviTheeaacthed,andibuatwhie he frettoltsbas low prices may still prevail thele is no probability ef any further deeline. He is convinced of this by a study a the present eitue,tion in the •South Ameri- can wheat fields, which breve been the. cause of the enormous decline in peices during the past two years. In study- ing the conditions now prevailing in' . Argentina, it is found that the mon- etery situation there is the leading influence in the conditions. A gold dc.allar is worth about three dollars in the ordinary currency el that country. The wheat grower iis paid in this depre- ciated paper, and at a dollar aibushel he gets in gold only 35 to 40 cente: This sum enables- the exporter and his Anancial backers to sell the grain in England even as low as two shillinge sterling -fifty cents of our currency - with still a little profit. But unless the financial situation in sArgentina goes Still further to the bad -which is not at all likely, but the reverse, as that country is getting out of the difficulties -the price will not go any lower, and everything points to an improvement. This financial condition, which has demoralized business for some time past in South America, will not there- fore be any important element in fine problem. The writer gives figures by which may be seen how small the present margin is in Argentina, even under a gold value of the currency, for the exporter. and how by every im- provement in the currency the peicee of the- grain Must advance, or this small margin must be wiped out. The lands in Argentine, it appears, are allotted in plots of about 500 acres, which are called cuadrae. For the cul- tivation of such a farm the following expenses must be 'met : "Necessary capital for the stock, $5,000 ; for labor and expenses, $4,716, except coal for harvesting, which is *3,700; total ex- penses, $8,416." The latter sum in- cludes interest and depreciation of capital. The product is estimated on an average of 20 fanegas, equal to 4 bushels each, per hundred medlars, which is all that can be put in wheat, the rest being required for pasture tor the stock, is thus 8,000 bushels; the cur- rency market value at the present time delivered at the railroad is $9,4(10. The balance for profit is thus the dompar- ativ.ely small sum in our currency of OK 'This must meet the risks of, the season, and it certainly leaves a small amount to secure the .advances of the bankers who supply the fund§ mostly to the speculators vr ho run the business. Rat -it is sometimes the case that the yield is larger than the estimate, and then, taking a ,ipossible :yield of one. half greater than the average, the balance :for profit niay be . the „more satisfactory sum $3,974, , in cerrency, equal,to $1,325 in gold; $2 60 an acted Theta are the conditions which the Canadian and United States farm- ers have to meet. The wages paid are quite as high as those current in the United States, viz., $25 a month, with living for the. year, or for the extra time of plowing and seeding and the harvesting. and the small sum of $500 for the subsistence of the proprietor. It is not a ondlized life either and were it not for the interest paid on the cap- ital,' which is 10 per cent., and the allowance for the depreciation of stock of all kinds, a matter which commends itself to the notice of the American farmers as a good busindas ar.ange- ment. but which is rarely figured up by us, there n ould be very little in the life of an Argentina farmer to make it desirable. According to the figures of the Minister of Agriculture of Russia it may be seen that American farmers have more to fear from that competit- ion than that of South America. In that country it costs not more than $6 an acre to grow wheat, while the aver- age product of 19 bushels an acre is worth todathe grower, after deducting all expenses, not less than $11. The regular farm bands get only from 15 to 20 cents a day, for l4 hours' work. A horse costs only 10 cents a day to keep. Rent and. taxes are 77 cents an acre. Thus it seems that the Russian peaeant is 'a, more serious competitor with us than the South Ameririan. However, it may be seen that the bottom has been reached, and it is some comfort to know the worst of any eyil. BORN. BOUTHOOTT.-In Exeter, on the 201h inst., th e wife of W.
