sQ pinch. The shrinicage applies not
•al(Cae to farm land, but to that in
*mils as well. The writer was in one
of the prettiest cities in Ontario last
week, a city surreunded by the finest
• agricultural territory in the Province,
and with natural advantages and
• cilities that should make it one of t
most prosperous—the city of St.Cath-
arines. 'iNhat is the condition of real
estate in that city. One can purchase
intridsome residence property for al -

any figure they like to offer.
• Qtrite recently a property that cost
0,500 was sold for $2,500; last week a
• property that cost over $5000, was sold
for $2,500, and we were credibly in-
t:Witted of a prope4 on which there
is a $50,000 mortgage, that will not
realize $20,000. Xhiny similar instan-
-,elp like this coulChe given, Nearly
tnfery town in Ontario at any rate tells a
'like story. Now it is not pleasant to
point out 'facts like these, but they
exist, and the honest man should try
• and find out why they exist. A tre-
mendous shrinkage in land values
does not indicate prosperity.
Freedom of trade would improve
matters very muck, as the land, being
the basis of all wealth, would have a
better outlet for its product. The loss,
caused by land shrinkage, has been a
very serious matter. It is true it could
be worse, but Might it not also be
better? If men who fluently speak
and write about "the prosperity of the
country," were holders of real estate,
they would be apt to think more than
twice before gushing over at the as-
sunaed prosperity of a country that
should not be retrograding in any
respect.

The Floods at St. LOU/8.
Many of our readers will have notic-
ed that at St Louis and other points
west, trernendous floods have prevailed,
and the following letter, from Mr C.
L. Hartt, (son of C. A. Hartt, Clinton)
LL- will Jae interesting—
"It will probably interest yourself and
many readers to hear direct exactly as
to the situation here. The Mississippi
river has reached a stage higher than
in the previous 20 years, having passed
the 80,5 ft. mark last night. Heavy
rains for the past six weeks through
sections of country traversed by the
Miesissippi and Missouri river, and
their tributaries, have precipitated an
unprecedented fall of water, which has
led to the present flood. Sunday and
this afternoon I visited the scene of
destruction and will endeavor to give
you an idea of tbe situation as it actu-
ally exists, though feeling assured of
the total inadequancy of words to
fully describe it. As we approach the
Merchants Bridge to cross over the
river, it is difficult, even to one fully
familiar with the surroundings, to de-
termine the river proper from the ra-
vages of the flood. As far as the eye,
can see, there is one broad expanse of
water, which, as lashed by the furious
winds, has the appearance of a minia-
ture lake. Houses, barns, stock, trees,
furniture and every description of
inerchandize at the mercy cf the wa-
ters. At times the train wends its
way through, at least, a foot of water,
with the track completely inundated.
Ever and anon freight trains, caboos-
es, &c. appear on side tracks, unable
to be removed, tenanted with whole
families whose homes have been wash-
ed away—their only place of safety --
yet hourly expecting:that an addition-
al rise will destroy even that place of
refuge. The city is doing all in its
power to alleviate the thousands who
are thus situated, but this, at the best,
is necessarily a slow method. The
railroads are the greatest losers finan-
cially. There is only one road, lying
furthest to the south of the river,
to the east and north whose traffic is
at present unimpeded, yet another rise
will also inundate their tracks. St
Louis, proper, is in no danger, lying
about 80 it, above the river. The dan-
ger so far as at present ascertainable
amounts up into the millions. The
surrounding towns of Mitchell, Venice,
Brooklyn, Baden, Madison, and the
largest portion of East St. Louis lies
under the waters, comprising an area
of over 100 miles."
•Lord. Salisbury's Latest Nlove
Lord Salisbury has intimated that
protective duties may yet be put on
English imports of manufactured ar-
ticles from the 'States—but not upon
- raw materials. It waS not necessary
for him to bump his bead against the
British free trade wall in order to en-
sure the success of the Liberals at the
coming general election, but probably
Mr Gladstone and his friends are not
sorry that the English leaderhas given
-utterance to sentiments_ whieb_a

sure to estrange the great industrial
and commerctal classes of the United
Kingdom from the party now in pow-
er. Even the Times, the Standard,
the Chronicle and other organs of
Conservative opinion in London find
themselves compelled to repudiate and
condenan the Premier's utterances on
the trade question as foolish and cal-
culated ,to assist his political oppon-
1,:;;ents, and the Liberal Unionists will
:Pilave to publicly avave their slisappro-
, val of their leader's theories and alleg-
attionosith respect to thepolicy of free
.• trade. In fact Lord Salisbury's reek-

the peculiar geography of the country

"I AM SO TIRED"
Is a common exclamation at this season.
There is a certain bracing effect in the cold
alt which is lost when the weather grows
wanner; and when Nature is renewing her
' youth, her admirers feel dull. sluggish and
tired. This condition is owing mainly to
the impure condition of the blood, and its
failure to supply healthy tissue to the vari-
ous organs of the body. It is remarkable
how susceptible the system is to the help
tO be derived from a good medicine at thie
geom. Possessing just them purifying,
qualities which the body

that tired feeling, restores tbe appetite,

It is very important in this age of vast

The effect on Canadian affairs of Mr.

NOTHING BUT BLACK BREAD.
James Edgar, of Minneapolis, who was
intrusted with the distribution of food sent
over bv this country to the famine-strioken
Russian peasants in the Volga district two
months ago, has returned to New York,
after having satisfactorily discharged the
important duty he had voluntarilyassurned.
"I visitsd all the principal cities in the
stricken distriot," said Mr Edgar, "and
established agencies eaoh place for the
distribution of the food. After appoint-
ing the agents I travelled through the
smaller Villages and saw for myself the
suffering of those starving peasants. It is
impossible for one who has not seen them
as they are to form an idea of their help.
less, horrible condition. They were actu-
ally starving when the gift of the Ameri-
can people reached them. The only thing
they could get to eat was black bread and
there was not even enough of that to go
around" Mr Edgar showed the reporter a
piece of this substance which he had
brought over with him. It looked like
petrified black turf. The crust was almost
as hard as granite, and could not be broken
with the fingers. One of the ingredients of
tile compound, as Mr Edgar explained it,
was ground sawdust. Broken barley, oats,
rye and resinous bark, that had first been re-
duced to a pulp, were the other ingredients.
"This is the substance," said Mr Edgar,
that these unfortunate people have lived on
exclusively for months.
HOW TO KILL CANADIAN
THISTLES.
AN ESSAY BY A. COLE, HULLF,TT.
At the present time there is no ques-
tion in our whole system of farm ope-
rations of greater importance to farm-
ers, than that of killing Canadian
thistles. As a result of the past and
present system of farming, we find, in
a great 'many instances, there is a
heavier crop of thistles than grain, and
why? Because a great many farmers
put in their crop in the spring, and
never give a thought of destroying (in
any way) the thistles that are in the
grain. Hence we come to the conclu-
sion that more attention must be paid
to the destroying of Canadian thistles,
if farmers wish to obtain better crops.
I will now commence by giving my
plans for destroying the top first. One
way, which is very effectual, is in egad -
ding. Take a spud and go through the
grain when it is just a few inches high,
•as the thistles can be plainly seen, and
can be cut without destroying the
the grain, this keeps them clown and
gives the grain a good start. Of course
there are many farmers who can not get
over all the grain with the spud, and
when this cannot be done, I would ad-
vise cthat sythe be taken,. and go
through the grain when it is in the
flag, and top them, as there isnot much
danger -of damaging -the grain wherein
this advanced state,and a great amount
of seed can be destroyed in this way,as
the thistles grow faster than the grain,
but are not far enough advanceil for
the seed to have come to maturity.
Then another very good way which
is very effectual is in mowing for hay,
as the seed has not come to maturity,
before the hay is ready to cut, if a field
be mown for a few years there will not
be so many thistles, for by cropping
so many years in succession, the thist-
les get thicker in the land, and the
land becomes impoverished, and is not
fit to grow anything but thistles,which
will grow in almost any kind of soil,
and I would advise that all thistles be
cut in pastureland beforegoing to seed;
there are too many thistles let go to
seed in this way. So much for killing the
top, now a few words about killing the
root. One way which is very effectual
is in making a summer fallow, and
again by sowing roots, as a great
nt can be destroyed by both these
, and I would advise that summer
s be not ploughed before the
f June, as by so doing the thistles
ecked in the dry season of the
and that all root ground be clean -
ice in the summer. Then sow
heat on the summer fallow, and
wheat on the root ground the
pring, and seed both down when
nd is free from weeds of all kinds.
er very good plan is to take a
r three furro‘Vgang plow, as soon
arvest as possible, and plow two
ee 'inches dee, then harrow well,
s givos a good seed bed to all
that are laying on top of the
d. Then let the land remain as
ntil a good growth be obtained,
ate in the fall as possible, then
a single plough, and plough
seven inches deep, and narrow
h to cut all roots, and I would
that all ploughing be done in
I (except sod) as spring plough-
ves the land loose, and gives the
s a better chance to grow. I
if the plans herein described,
arried out by all farmers (as
hould be) farmers would soon be
om the very unpleasant task of
g among Canadian thistles, and
suit, as herein before descri bed,
obtain better crops.
