GERMAN FARMERS' PĻIGHT,

RUINOUS LYFECTH OF XET MILITARY LAW,'

The following is from the Berlin corres pondent of the Daily News and Leader-

Dr. Haim, one of the Bavarian Contra Party leaders, publishes the results of à careful inquiry into the effect of military servico on small peasant Farmors owrink their own ground and, tilling it with the aid of members of the family. He begins with a lostor from farmer who has soat eight sons to the army, and has been obliged to mortgage his property and vir tually ruin himself, not only owing to the absence of his scus' help, but also owing to the necessity of sending them money and produce whilst with the culoare. The result of inquiries among 1,800 pensanti families of this kind (families 1,100 of whom had four suns in 'the army, 500 firs sons, 140 six," and 8eight and nine) show, that sach son, during his two years' in- fantay service, received in money, clothes, and produce assista.co to the valuȧ of 216. Apart from this expense, the farmör was almost always obliged to obtain hired labour daring the absence of his son, which trebled the expanse of the son's Arvico.

From those replies," says Dr. Heim, **it is absolutely clear that families with several, healthy sons come dearer ruin with Bach un called to the colours. Amonget families with four or more military sune there are many which, despite the greatest prudence and economy, have been com pletely rumisd

Que family that had sont nine sons to military service lived from the produce of property of less than fire acre.
