Ono of tho most untidy appearing places in tho world is a lot of aban doned farms near somo city. Tuis is nwticcablo near a great many of our western cities. Land becomes so high in price that '.lie owner will soli it to somo land speculator or corporation, who lays it out in lots, many of which will not bo sold for somo time. The result is that tho greater part of this land is overrun with largo weeds and has a vory untidy appoaranco. This impresses tho visitor as being a very peculiar state of affairs. Thero are acres of wild sunflowers and other species of weeds growing in splendid luxurianco ndjuccnt to many cities. It is also noticcablo that farmers near such cities are not, as a rule, as indus trious as those farther out in tho coun try. Tills has been accounted for by their spending too much time in tho city or depending on tlio value of this high priced laud to help them out. Tho high price should be an incentive to better farming, as they will be re quired to grow better crops In order to mako their land pay good interest 011 its value.-Iowa Homestead. i' z Micl-Wintor Holiday Ratos.
