New England, the oldest part of the United States, is being rediscovered. 7“Back to the farm,” is the call now resounding through the bustling citles. And the people are going back to the flelds of their xnndhmers, to ploughs and harrows, which have been neglecteq while interest has centered in manufacturing and commerce. New England as iate as 1880 count- ed one of every three of its population in the rural districts. great change came, and thirty vears later, in 1510, one of every. six persons liv- ed in the cities: In the same thirty year period the number of acres of improved land in farms d from 13,000,000 to 7,- 125,000. The number of farms de- creased from 207,000 to 189,000 But now the pendulum is swinging back. With large established mar- kets easy of access, roads ad credits good, the glittering attractions of the Middle West practically closed to new comers, New England again is turning to agriculture with a new spirit im- proved facilities and a bette: success. Evidence of this increasing interest was shownsin the large meeting of ‘he Governors of the New - England states, agricultural leaders and prom- inent stockmen, at Springfield, Mass., on Fe uary 14, to arrange for the Eastern S Agricultural and In- lustrial E-fosition, to be held at Springfield. ot only is the East watching the revival of interest in agriculture, but the whole country as wpll = New ngland won for itself In rvecent vears a reputation not as an agri- ~ultural center but as a leader in ~ommerce. David F. Houston, secretary of ‘ulture, from his office in Washing- on, is watching this change. A austling businessman type of secre- ary of agriculture, Mr. Houston looks mon the new order of things as ine- sitable, the result of passing through different perlod of transition and a natural consequence from the great markets that are opened and the im- “roved methods of tilling the soil and -aising stock. ~The agrioultural problems in New Snaiaod e N @ complex. satd “Tr: Houston. “They are recelving the sarnest attention Of the e ‘Armers’_organisationy of 7en engaged in banking and eom- e icvitire: o e vty o T agriculture, of the “rant college, and of the Federal De- Sartment of Agriculture” “New England has many ~dvantages in industry, apd her ae- lvfliz! hl.’\;e been mnmu G‘.. his field for many gei 5. ufacturing and 25 |3 iroan. section, ana this developm irban 'us had a mrked reaction on rural " Decreass in Rural Population. “The first thing that strikes our l!. ‘onflun is the fact that the rural shown i Tmone m.,“fi&“m 3 "e:gs'gfi-! hope of | farm 1:.#3 Pcrhipsyonue'nupfimltolumtbax ynunn"getmd the ;‘cabinet’”, Victrolas, and a suit yoiir own taste, for so little money, & ‘This style Victrola is much in demand, as 1t provides th most popular featuresof construction for 2 small outlayof Mf" Come in today, have us play some records for you, -nd in- " quire about our convenient terms, ' Other stylesof the Victor and Vietsela $10 to $400. _ [ DSMAR Street s:rut, N-w London S ST L L IATINIGPS There were 1,168,000 reported in 1910 and 1,331,000 in 1916, and likewise the number of swine has in recent years showed a marked tendency to in- crease, the number reported in 1900 being 362,000 while the number in 116 was 456,000, Further Progress Obvious. “That further progress can be made wmu 2nd the experts are In sub- agreement as the direction the effort should take.

The raising of sheep from'the mutton viewpoint, broadly speaking, never has been at- tempted in New Eneland and it seems ble that it should be.
