Present Position of Agriculturists in England. Continued Rise of Rent. Increased Rate of Wages not equally certain. Competition in the Hire of Land. Whence it arises. Foreign Produce. That of Lands of superior Fertility chiefly affects us. Increasing Value of Live Stock. Home Competition the trueS ource of diminished Profits. Extent to which theB usiness ofF arming is giving place to other Occupations. Area of ordinary Farming thus curtailed. Necessity for Farmers to thin the ranks of Home Competition. Daily Consumption ofF oreign Grain. Offers aG ood Prospect to theE migrant. The Prairies of Illinois a suitable Field for him. Their A dvantages. Price. A gue. Stock Farming and Indian Corn. Cost of Voyage and Journey. The present a very favourable Time. THE present position of the agricultural body in the United Kingdom is interesting and peculiar. The landowner and the agricultural laborer are both profiting by the same cause, a limited supply of the commodity in which they deal. So long as this country continues to prosper, the value of land must increase, for there can be no increase of the land itself. But the demand for labour varies, and the supply is subject to causes which render it uncertain. While, so long as the present system of taxation continues, there must be a continued rise in the value of land, there appears to me no equal certainty of a progressive advance in the rate of wages.
