Although Lord Aberdeen in tile= potting of the greater ,hart of the Iiaddn tstatt' in ,icntland, ha is re- taining the bossy itself: and seine thirteen thousand acres round about it. There has btueri a growing dis- position on the part of ancestral families to cut down their responsi- bilities as lanced proprietors, and this has fitted in conveniently with the desire of the magnates of nom=• mere° to tale ul, large domains, ill EOM() eases, for example, that of Lord Crewe, there have been ownership of two or three seats with many thou- sands of acres in different counties. In that ease Lord Crewe has pre- ferred to limit his charge. One of the difficulties of sale. lies in the en- tail that is usually associated with titles. Lord Aberdeen has to go through certain formalities, and Itis oldest son and his other son have both to execute deeds of renunciation in order to enable the conveyance to be made. Just now under recent Acts of Parliament the best fields for cultivation aro being selected unhesi- tatingly by county authorities to pro- vide holdings for ex -soldiers. It is believed that a big change will conte over rural England through this de- velopment, although on this subject, as on every other, opinions tare dif- ferent. Nobody grudges the tighter the best possible plot of land pro- vided only there is reasonable chance that he will be able to slake good upon it. Experienced agriculturalists, however, incline to the view that with the taxation burdens and other difficulties which attach to profitable cultivation in the old country, a good many Hien who are not practiced, but simpljf think they would like to live on the land, will find the business top. hard for them. Much depends upon co-operation and on the incentive that in the course of years they may become owners. In Denmark the problem of small holdings has been solved on a free basis because the people stick to the land when once they have got it. There is no dan-" ger, although the land could be sold, that the entail occupations will be - Cottle merged through the rich buy- ing of the poor. The scheme of the Government, provides for numerous alternatives --all designed to encour- age the re ival of peasant and yeo- man farming in England and Scot- land. Ireland, under her scheme of land laws, has had the opportunity long ago and has taken it up to a large extent.

The fire started about 2 30 P. M. and was a mass of flames be- fore it was noticed. The cause of the fire is a mystery. The children were all at school and the hired man was at work in the field. The only solution is, that It must have caught from a hot boxing on the wind mill. All Mr. Ashtpn's farm implements except those in use in the field, were in the barn and were burned along with six fine calves also grain, hay, etc, The insurance, we understand, is 826 00.
