hastening to welcome the foreign yacht. The
larger vessels went away outside of Sandy

courage to venture far Into the choppy sea.
The schooner and larger sloollS remained In
the open until they saw that they would have
to give over the opportunity or seeing the
English boat. Moreover , several tugs were
sent out by the newspapers and 10st of theo

Among time social anti immdmistriat movomrcmsts
of the isresent timsie iii F3umrope which are
worthy of seriotus attention in this country ,
says time New York Tribtmlma , one of the most
sigumIiicant is timat of time agricultural symldi-
cates in France. 'i'heso bodies correspomid iii

grammges in this country , amid perimaps re-
colved their suggestions anti inItiative there-
from , They immud their origin about cloven
years ago , being called forth by tito needs
of the farmers , It lund been observed that
whillo all otimer btmaimsesses anti trades had
timeir tmnions or otimer organizations for mtmtual
aid , time tillers of the soil imad none. There
seemed no valid reaaoms , inherent its the uma-
tmmro of the case , wlmy timoy should not have
timenu anti profit by thiemms. Accordingly time
experitsient was niatie , at first eu a sissail
scale. In ISS4 only five local syndicates were
formed , with a few score memnbers each.
Time next year saw thirty-nine. the tmext
mminety-timree. Titenceforward their growths
was steady amid raplil , both iim imumbars and in
size. At present there are about 1,500 of
them , anti seine imave fromn 12,000 to 15,000
niembers each. The entIre inenihorsimip cx-
ceetle 1,000,000. or nearly 3 per cent of the
entire popuhatiomu of the republic. Timero is
probably no industry or business in Frammco
IlmOtO generally or more timoremigimly organ-
izeti.
It is not , however , agricultural labor-
meaning time hired workmnea on the farms-
that is thus organized , nor can there syndi-
rates be regarded as mere labor onions.

In this way the farmers of France are mmiaking
much progress ium practical scIentific tarintmmg ,
anti are learning niuch about the nature anti
requirenients of different soils , the culture
of crops , the use of fertilizers , implements ,
etc. Anothmer lmnportant fumiction of tite
syndicates is 11mmelmeaper purcimase of smmpplies
of oil kiimds by getting them collectively , at
wholesale rates. Instead of eaclm of 1,000
farmers ordering lila supplies of seeds aumd
fertilizers separ4tely , ai the 1,000 send In
