The Most Fertile Counties.
Borne statistics lately-published in re-
gard tothe leading agricultural counties
of this Union will be a surprise tothose
who talk of tho wornout fauna of the
east. In the scale of money yielding fer-
tility the wheat and corn growing re-
gions oi the west are far down when
shown up against live counties in three of
the original 13 colonies of America.
The comparison is made by the
amount of money realized in the coun-
ties for agricultural productions last
year. The banner county is Lancaster.
Pa.,which yielded in round numbers
$8,000,b00 worth of agricultural prod-
ucts. The second richest county is St.
Lawrence, N. Y., with $6,000,000,
though St. Lawrence county is three
times as large as Lancaster. The third
richest county is Chester, Pa., while
.the fourth 'most productive is found no-
where else than in Massachusetts. ‘It is
Worcester. Pennslyvnnia again steps
,lfp with the fifth county. Bucks. The
most productive county in the whole
western, middle and southern portions
of the Union is Colusa, Cal, whose ag-
ricultural yicld last year amounted to
$5,300,000.
The most significant fact in connec-
tion with the figures is that counties
which raise diversified crops and live
stock are richer than those confining
themselves to single crops.
It is only a question of time when
freight wagons in cities will be pro-
pelled by gas, electricity or petroleum.
In New York already one leading de-
partment store is adopting delivery
wagons moved by petroleum. The prin-
ciple of small. quickly succeeding explo~
sions of the oil is the one adopted for
driving the machine. One cent an hour
to each wagon is said to be the expense
of the vehicle. When it is considered
that such delivery wagons for one
department store will take out. of
the crowded streets of New York not
less than 50 horses. with their sta—
bles, their noise, danger and unclean-
ness. it can becompntod what gain there
will be to the health and comfort of a
city when these animals are removed
from its streets altogether. A stable in
a city is so objectionable that it brings
down the rental of buildings in its via
ciuity. If mtroleum explosions canbe
adapted to propel yachts and light haul-
ing wagons, they can certainly be ar-
ranged to move heavy trucks. Then one
of the worst nuisances of acrowded city
will be done away. Horses will be rele-.
gated to pleasure carriages and to travel
under the saddle, where they belong.
The Institute of France is raising sub~
soriptious for a monument to the great
chemist Lavoisier, executed by the nav-
olutiouary tribunal 101 years ago, May
6. Lavoisier begged a few more days of
life that he might finish certain experi-
ments in which he was engaged. but
even that been was refused him by the
fast and furious rcvolutlonlets. Now the
French nation. republican, like the men
who killed him. set up his status in a
place of honor. It is the way of repub-
lics. ~
The Japanese are a nation to be an
friendly terms with. It is written in
the book of destiny that they are to be
one of the ruling powers of the globe.
The individual who tries to stop Japa~
nose migration to America will make as
great a mistake as if he ventured to
offend Grout Britain or Germany by
starting a made against Irishman,
Englishman or (lemons coming.

istence can exchange their bills for those
of the state bank. They can also at all
times obtain a supply” of money from
the state bank for the transaction of
their business. The central bank will
rediscount the bills of the other banks.
Thus the banking business will be div
vided into two distinct branches. The
government bank will issue all the
money and supply currency to the local
discount; A slight char illhe made
for the rediscounting, su clout to pay
expenses. The local banks will confine
themselves to the other banking trans-
actions, such as loaning money, receiv-
ing deposits, etc. If this system were
adopted in the United States, the na-
tional banks would surrender their pow-
erof issuing money and the government
would take charge of that, supplying
currency as the banks required it. It is
believed in Switzerland that under this
system the amount of currency circula-
tion will regulate itself.
