Population of the Principal Cities of Ohio, 1810-1900.
All of the above named cities have received marked accessions to their population during the last ten years, those having increased by the largest percentage being Toledo, 61.9 per cent; Akron, 54.8 per cent ; Cleveland, 46.1 per cent ; and Columbus, 42.4 per cent. Largest numerical gains during the decade are found in Cleveland, Toledo, and Columbus. With a single exception in one decade each of these cities has increased in population steadily, but the rate of growth has been irregular and has shown no uniform trend of change. For Cincinnati, Cleveland, and Springfield, however, that rate since 1870 has steadily declined, a change in harmony with the usual tendency of large urban centers.

THE OHIO CAPITOL BUILDINGS.
T HE Capitol Buildings of the State of Ohio stand in the principal square in the city of Columbus, in a park containing over ten acres of well cultivated lawns and native forestry, on land which was given to the state by the proprietors of the town site, in 1812. The name "Columbus" was selected for the town and bestowed upon it by the General Assembly at a later date.
The illustrations on the frontispiece give some idea of the style of building but fall far short, in dignity and point of finish, of doing justice to either the old Capitol Building or the new Department of Justice.
The original "State House," erected by the grantors of the public grounds on condition that Columbus-then unsettled-should be chosen for the Capital of Ohio,- was a series or row of brick buildings on High street, beginning at State street and running north along the present property to a point about halfway to the present west entrance to the "State House yard." These structures were burned Sunday morn- ing, February I, 1852. The old Capitol Building, as it is now called, was begun in April, 1839, and was partially completed and dedicated in January, 1857. The corner stone was laid July 4, 1839. The building was finished in 1861 and was a useful rendezvous for troops gathering for service in the Union Army during the Civil War. The Department of Justice Building was built under an act of the 73rd General Assembly, adjoining the old Capitol at the terrace on the east. It thus occupies the Third street front of the Capitol grounds and, being of similar archi- tecture to its predecessor, adds to, rather than detracts from the simple beauty of the structure.
As an illustration of the advance in structural science a comparison of the two methods of building is interesting. The original structure was begun in 1838, and finished in 1861. Deducting for time consumed in numberless interruptions, the time actually spent in the building of it, was fifteen years ; the cost $1,360,000; the labor was that of idle convicts from the Penitentiary ; the material, dressed limestone from state quarries west of the city. The new building was authorized in 1898; corner stone was laid February 16, 1899, and on the Ist of September, 1901, the several departments assigned to this building are taking possession of their beautiful quarters. The exterior of the new building is of dressed lime- stone ; the trusses are of steel. The actual time of building was three years, the cost $450,000, and the foot-space of public offices equal to about one-half that of the main building. The old building is 304 feet in its longest dimensions (north and south) and 184 feet wide (east and west), covering about two acres of ground. The height from the.

ground to outside pinnacle of the central dome is 128 feet; from floor of the rotunda to the eye of this dome is 120 feet; from floor of the rotunda to the upper skylight 136 feet. The diameter of the rotunda floor is 64 feet 5 inches and the floor contains 4,892 pieces of marble. The cupola surrounding the dome (which was never completed as originally designed) is 75 feet in diameter. There are 53 rooms in the Capitol Building. The new Department of Justice or Law Building is 220 feet north and south by 100 feet east and west and contains three full stories and a clear story on the east side. The rotunda is finished in marble and tastefully decorated, with an architectural effect said to be unequalled in the west. The building contains 55 rooms and was primarily intended, as the name implies, to house the Supreme Court, the Clerk of the Court, the Supreme Court Library, and the Attorney General's department. These departments occupy practically all of the second and third floors, the first story being devoted to the departments of Agriculture, Health, Insurance, and Public Works.
THE OHIO STATE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE.
T HE Ohio State Board of Agriculture was created by an act of the General Assembly, passed February 27, 1846. The first officers of the board were ex-Governor Allen Trimble, President; Samuel Medary, Secretary ; M. L. Sullivant, Treasurer. The first Ohio State Fair was held in Cincinnati, October 5-7, 1850, and a fair has been held each year since that time, except in 1888, when the Ohio Centennial took its place. From 1850 until 1874 the fair was held in the principal cities of the state, the city offering the greatest inducement, in the way of financial aid, securing it. In 1874 the board concluded to establish the fair permanently and centrally at the Capital of the State. The grounds of the Franklin County Agricultural Society (now Franklin Park), were rented until 1886, when the fair was held on grounds just north of the city, which the board had purchased three years previous and fitted up for this purpose. Exposition Park, which contains one hundred and fifteen acres, has been beautifully ornamented by lakes, trees, shrubs, etc., and fine buildings have been erected for the various classes of exhibits, at a cost of several hundred thousand dollars. The live stock buildings are the largest and best in the country. The horse building is three hundred and thirty-two feet square and will accommodate over five hundred horses; and in addition to this, there are barns provided for speed and fancy horses. The cattle, sheep, and swine buildings are a little smaller than the horse building, but are similar to it in all details and have ample accommodations for immense exhibits. These structures are brick and stone, with slate roofs. Broad, clean walks extend through all the build- ings, and visitors can, with comfort, view the animals in their stalls and pens.
In 1880 the system of crop reporting was inaugurated by the board, with a corps of about eight hundred volunteer reporters, reports being made quarterly; since that time the number of correspondents has about doubled, the scope of the work has been enlarged and for a number of years the publication has been issued monthly.
In 1881 a law was passed by the General Assembly charging the Secretary of the State Board of Agriculture with the duty of licensing the sale of commercial fertilizers in Ohio, and also sampling and analyz- ing the same for publication. This work has been successfully pursued by the secretary with very satisfactory results both to consumers of commercial fertilizers and to manufacturers of same. The work has grown gradually, from small beginnings, until now a very large business

is done and a considerable force is employed in the inspection, chemical analysis, etc., of fertilizers.
In the winter of 1880-81 the board entered upon the work of holding farmers' institutes, and twenty-seven successful meetings were held that winter. The number increased gradually until 1889-90, when sixty-two meetings were held. During the winter of 1890 the General Assembly, recognizing the value of farmers' institutes to the agriculturists of the state, passed a law making liberal provision for their support, thus en- abling the board to largely increase its work in this direction. In 1890-91 one hundred and twenty-four institutes were established by the board, and, during the institute season of 1900-01 about three hundred meetings were held.
The Ohio State Board of Agriculture consists of ten members, two being elected each year for a period of five years. The office of the board is in the State House and is in charge of a Secretary and Assistant Secre- tary, who employ a stenographer, statistician, librarian, and a number of clerks. The Secretary is the head of the Department of Agriculture, which is a department of the State Government. The department has an extensive agricultural library of about seven thousand volumes, and through regular exchanges, receipt of government documents, gifts, purchases, etc., it is rapidly growing. These books and documents are available for reference to all who wish to use them.
The following is a list of the Secretaries of the board, from its or- ganization to date :

MANZ
OHIO AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATION. Main Building and Laboratories.
T HE Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station was established by an act of the General Assembly, passed April 17, 1882 ; its object be- ing, as recited in this act, "for the benefit of the interests of practi- cal and scientific agriculture, and for the development of the vast agricultural resources of the State." The station never had any organic connection with the State University, but it was at first located at that in- stitution, a few acres of land being set apart for its use and the Professor of Horticulture in the University being made its first Director, this office being transferred to the Professor of Agriculture at a later date.
In 1887 the National Congress passed an act now known as "the Hatch act," appropriating $15,000 annually to each state and territory for the establishment of Agricultural Experiment Stations, these stations to be organized in connection with the colleges which had been or might be established under what is popularly known as the "agricultural college act of 1862," except that, in states which had previously established agricultural experiment stations separate from such colleges, permission was given to devote the appropriation to such separate stations.

THE OHIO HUNDRED YEAR BOOK.
Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station at Wooster.
This course was followed in Ohio, and the Experiment Station was re-organized, Charles E. Thorne being made Director, and the major part of the University farm being assigned to the use of the Station.
The rapid growth of the City of Columbus around the University soon showed that the time must come when its lands would become too valuable to be used for purposes of agriculture, and the permanent and largely increased income now assured the Station made it seem necessary that it should be so established that its work might be continued indefin- ately without interruption. The General Assembly therefore passed an act authorizing the several counties of the state to issue bonds for the pur- chase of lands and the erection of buildings for the use of the Station and to bid for its location. Several counties immediately took action under this law, and the offer of $85,000, made by Wayne County, was accepted by the Board of Control of the Station; the bonds were sold, several adjoining farms, lying near the city of Wooster, were purchased and the erection of buildings was at once commenced.
A dissatisfied citizen of Wayne County afterward brought suit to contest the constitutionality of the law under which the county had thus bonded itself. The common pleas and circuit courts both declared the law valid, but these decisions were reversed in the Supreme court, on the ground that the people of a part of the state were taxed for the sup- port of an institution intended for the benefit of the whole state (see Con- stitution of Ohio), and it was held that the incidental benefits derived from the proximity of the Station were no justification for the extra taxation for its support. This decision seriously interrupted the work of the Station, but after about two years the General Assembly assumed the payment of the bonds and has since made provision for the comple- tion of the buildings necessary for the Station work. These comprise the Administration Building and Chemical Laboratory, shown in the illustra- tion, which is built in fire proof construction of the yellowish sandstone found on the Station farm; a block of greenhouses, 80x115 feet, with stone offices in front ; a small biological laboratory ; four large barns and a number of smaller ones; a fully equipped creamery, and seven dwell- ings. The Station owns 470 acres of land, in which it has laid about 26 miles of tile drains. It has planted about 20 acres in orchards, in which more than 700 varities of fruit are now in bearing. It has about 70 pure bred cattle, of six different breeds, and similar flocks of pure bred sheep.
The work of the Station has been organized in four different depart- ments : (1) Agriculture, (2) Horticulture, (3) Entomology, and (4) Botany and Chemistry, each department being in charge of a specialist. The last General Assembly charged the Station in addition with an in- vestigation of tuberculosis and other diseases of cattle, and made its Board of Control the agency for the execution of a law providing for the

THE ATHENS STATE HOSPITAL.
T HE Athens State Hospital was under the process of construction from 1868 until January 9, 1864, when the firct patients were admitted. The first two admissions to the institution were. Thos. Armstrong and Daniel Fernaw. Mr. Armstrong died within a few: months and Mr. Fernaw has been until now an inmate of the institution .. .
Dr. Richard Gundry was made Superintendent of Construction in June, 1872, and remained Superintendent until the 15th of December, 1876, when he resigned to assume the superintendency of the newly con- structed asylum at Columbus. Upon the resignation of Dr. Gundry the superintendency of the institution devolved upon the senior assistant physician, Dr. Thos. Blackstone, now of Circleville, Ohio, who managed its affairs discreetly and faithfully. On the 16th of January, 1877, Dr. C. L. Wilson, of Indianapolis, Ind., was chosen to fill the vacancy. He being declared ineligible by the Supreme Court, Dr. H. C. Rutter was elected by the board of trustees to fill the vacancy. Dr. Rutter was then, a resident of Bellefontaine, Ohio. The next superintendent was Dr. P. H. Clarke, of Meigs County. Dr. Holden, of Zanesville, was then ap- pointed to succeed Dr. Clarke. On the 6th of May, 1880, Dr. H. C. Rutter was re-appointed and he resigned this position in February, 1881, and Dr. A. B. Richardson was elected to fill the vacancy. Dr. Richardson resigned the superintendency April 17, 1890, and Dr. W. P. Crumbacker was appointed to the place. Dr. Crumbacker resigned May 19, 1892, and Dr. C. O. Dunlap was appointed. He resigned June 1, 1896, and Dr. E. H. Rorick was appointed to fill his place. While it can be said that the Athens State Hospital never had an inefficient superintendent it will be noticed on the other hand, that two of the superintendents (Dr. Gundry and Dr. Richardson) attained a national reputation in their line of work.
This hospital is in close proximity to the beautiful and historical city of Athens, noted for its pure air and cultured people. While the Athens State Hospital is not the largest in the state it is certainly one of the best. It is here that years ago Dr. Richardson, then its superintendent, first took the straight-jacket off the inmates and inaugurated a new era in the treatment of insane patients.
