At. idea of the change that is', coining over the farming class in the United States is shown by the resllts ot an investigation made by the State Librarian ot Indiana into farm: mortgage indebtedness in that State. He reports that this form of encumbrance increase $6o,37g, 000 between the years 2873 and 1879 inclusive, From 2.852 to 1$88 the increase was $46,476,000, a total of Sxo6,8se+000. Interest on those loans is at the rate of seven per tent., and the farmer s of the State a_repaying annually $ ,4eo,00a in interest. Nearly all these mort- gages are held be foreign companies thirteen of which in three years forclosed mortgages aggt-egating The murder trust for providing one miliiou dollars.

The beekeeping business is an erten- sive one in this Province, some 25,000 persons hemi; engaged in it. Of late years foul brood has appeared among the bees, and legislation is now sought for the propar inspection and regulation of the business iii this particular, which the Minister ot Agriculture: is promoting. Matters in South .A,frica are becoming interesting. It appears from the des - p; tehes that the opponents of the Buten Republican Government have become suiliciently strong, to hada down its flag and assert British sentiment by actions which place its powersatdeliance. This is a sign of growth of the English popu- lation in ra country where a short time ago a law was passed practically dis- franchising Englishmen. Emigration has been pouring intik south Africa from Great Britain, and British capital and enterprise have been developing lands which the Boers have long regarded sail waivereserves. Thus it would appear that the question who is going to own Africa from the lakes to the Gape is up for solution, and the British colonists have made uptheir minds= the answer, _ Ontario farmer, with eighty acres ;illi.

Once .upon a time the woods and fields of Cana- da were vocal and resplendent with sling birds and birds of rare and beautiful plumage. But they have disappeared, Were they the worst enemies, instead of being among the best friends, of .man, they could not have been slaughter- ea , more mercilessly by man and sparrow. The insect armies that occa£ionally ruin millions ot money worth are among the most strikiug effects of bird murder, while the constant depredations of all sorts of insect pests are the direct results of the disappearance of the birds. And if those ladies who tum their bonnets with stuffed birds ;would only realize the amount of suffering. and actutsl loss the Cashion entails,' they would not inflict the pain and sorrow that every m:tn of sense feels. than the farmer in New York, cul- tivating the sante area and tile game amps, by $ x,x06 ; more than the farmer iu Ohio by $2,183 ; in itlichigan:by .32,200; in Illinois by $2,7gS1 in Indiana by $2,86x; in Kansas by 53,2x3 ; in.

In wheat the average production was from two to six bushels more than that of the nine states. In barley the dif.' fererace in favor of Ontario was from four to five bushels, in oats from four to nine bushels, in corn from i8 to 26 bushels, In rye from two to six bushels, in :Buckwheat from xs to 15 bushels, in potatoes from 27 to 47 bushels aud,in hay from one- fifth to one-third at a ton per acre. .MANITOWA appears destined b set an example to the other pro- Ninces in some very important mat - tiers. The majority of the settlers an the prairie province are men who retain, •a too lively recollection of the evils existing in the older pro- vinces to patien:fily permit their ex- tension to, and .establishment in,, A1anitoba. Desirous of having a homogeneous people, a harmonious body politic, and knowing that state -aided sectarian education and ecclesiastical exemptions are potent influences in dividing the popula- tion into hostile camps and keeping them divided, they have wisely de- termined to remove the last vestiges of the connection between Church ,end State. By this radioxel opera- tion every one is placed precisely on the same footing, each family and each church being left abso lutes free to take . char .e• of the Y g moral and religious training of the young, • 'In . a r ew country this is the only logical position for the civil government to take.

The Connell of the Equal Rights Asso- ciation of Ontario has issued an address to the people of the province. whinh says that true friends of confederation are they who could obviate bitter contention, which mea- sures tike the Jesuits' estates set will in- evitably breed, not they who would allow the fame principles unhindered to work permanent discord and confusion. On separate schools in Ontario, the address says that .public money should not be given for sectarian purposes. All provinces ohould have liberty to establish or retain or abol- ish separate schools as they should see cause. At a convention of retaii'merolhaats of Manitoba at Winnipeg Thursday, strong resolutions were passed against insurance companies now doing busineas in the pro vhnne, it being contended that they were making fortuues unjuetly out of merchants by charging exorbitant rates.

An experiment made the past. sum- mer with cows, proved' that with a handful of salt, or about two ounces of it, given every day, the yield of butter was increased one-fifth; and when the salt was withheld . the yield fell off in the same proportion: The reason, beyond question, is thatas salt is re- quired for full digestion of the food,.. more of the food was changed into milk.
