Prior to 1810, although certain persons banded themselves together for the purchase of dwellings, plac ing their money in the hands of trustees, there is no record of any incorporated building association. But the primitive co operation build ing schemes proved so successful, and wore so markedly beneficial to those who !kki joined them, that in 1840 the Weccaeoe, the first in coritomted molding association, was chartered. This association, un der good and honest management., throve "well, and in tho next year twenty associations W're charter ed. The subjoined tables show the number of associations chartered In this city from 1851 to 1875, inclu sive : jvj 2i IvJO 8 18C? ©"> 1*53 14 - l>7l ;Ki 14*4 i> tVvl tl 1*5.2 uj Jvvi 4 184 7 357.-5 i 2 1S.: to ! 15%> !' 1874 4 i 1*37 13 186-i. 21 IS.?

It is worth noting that in the years succeeding the war the organit.it ion increased largely in numbers, a fact wliicli is generally attributed to the desire of Ihe workingmen to provide against the pressure of the hard times which, they foresaw, were rapidly approach ing. They knew that a reaction would inevitably follow the excite ment incident to the war, and wise ly prepared agains*" future contin gencies. Thus from 18GG until 1874 —the panic, which seems to have been forecasted bv these shrewd men, was in 1873-the number of associations chartered yearly rap idly ingreased. In addition to the incorporated building associations there are from 75 to 100 societies in existence wluc'i hold no charters. However, it is not the object of this article to treat any save iwcorpo'ratfd societies, aud this fact is mentioned merely as having a possible statistical bearing upon the subject. And now as to the success of the chartered associations. A g*n tlemau who b*3 studied the sulj ct carefully for many years said recent ly, referring to the figures above given : "The charter in itself indi cates the existence of an organiz t tion reuly for business, and, as sub s rsj)t ois for capital are in the shaie of monthly subAcriptious, the difiiculties which usually attend the : organization of a business corpora tion do not exist bix oer cent, of ; those chat tered will, I am satisfied, more than cover all abortive asso ciations, and this will leave at least t'iso incorporated building associa tions in actual ot>eratioii in this city fnra January 1, 1849, to January 1, 1870- Inasmuch as ten years is assumed by nil good building association men to be a fair average time for wind ing up an association, it may be :e- Kinned that Jti the Ist of January, IS7G, 459 were in operation, while 2<X> had been finally wound up. As ail evidence of the loans on bond and mortgage made by build ing associat ions of this city from 1849 to 187(i the following will piove •suggestive : 1*49 3 ' '271 I*/).

It would be hard to : gather definitely from the records tin- actual amount of eaeh of these 35,129 mortgages, but good author ities agree that they average say $2, 099 eafii. Taking this as tiie correct figure it will be seen that in the last twenty-six years Philadelphia build ing Juvs.iciaUons have loaned out $72,258,000. Deducting premiums, etc., the net amount paid by asso ciations to borrowers on mortgage was $50,580,000. On the Ist of .Tunnary. 1870, 17,- 282 of these mortgages remained unsatisfied, while 18.817 hud Iweu paid up. In 1875 the payments to Philadelphia association were $7.- 072.000. although some association men estimate them at $lO 000.000. Another fact worthy of mention is that the mortgages accepted by building associations for a number of yeuts past have formed a large proportion of all the mortgages is sued in Philadelphia. lit 1803 they I formed G per cent, of the whole j nunfiier ; ii: 1870, 25 per cent., and j in 1871. 31 per cent. The following table shows the ' comparison of mortgages accepted I in this city by building associations and by other organizitions from 1873 to 1875. Budding association i mortgages are recorded in the ibst i column, all other mortgages in the ; second and the proportion of buil i iug assoc'ation mortgages ia the third. isna.. gri 4iu .osa h").-, nv. .2V> ' | l.V.'i.. 4'*) 4.'S! .0s IjC.V ..'1.77 I vl .2. 7 ■ tlii.. * 154 >1 .CK ' 1T:,'...:.: .7 11 S "11 is;:.. •>. 1*74..:n'7 iu:>vi .sji j ivis. .!"<>" 014} .17.

In 1875 tlie sales were 1.284, and of these only 230, or 17.111 per j cent., were ujkmi asse:ati in m >rt | gages. As the association ni riga ; ges were over 3d per cent, in 1874. j and over 27 per cent, of all recorded • in 1875, the statistics are far from 1 being opposed to t ie future career of the building associations. It is baully possible with the data j obtainable now to give more than !an approximate estimate of the I stockholders in building association* j in this city, but their success h : s been so marked and their manage ' meiit, its a rule, so upright and man ! ly, as to attract the patron ge, or J rather co-opwnt •. or workiugineir ! anxious to secure homes of their I jwn. Dis estimated by gentlemen who know tiiat the subscribers to building associations in this city number at least G7.M30, but others fix the mnniier at 0 J,O9J. If the reader will take the trouble to look into the last census he will Ii id that Philadelphia contains 217.G55 per sons with occupations. According to this the building associations claim one- fifth of the working |eopl* of the city, and doubtless their claim is web founded. To the honor of tlie building asso ciations of Puiladelphia it may be s.tid that within the past fifteen years there h.ts not been a single as sociation in bankruptcy or in se questration or under execution. Thecharm of chebuildiiig association to the working man is its cheapness. Say that his necessities requite a house world say $12.55 per month. This lion e purchased out light would cost liitn about $1,503. Should he join an association, piying in his monthly dues, lie will, in the course of a few years, become the undispu ted owner of his property, having paid not much more from it than the rent, had lie chosen to remain a tenant, would have amounted to. A\ IOWA SNOW STORM. The H r ay it Siiotced in thai State Tieentu Years A jo—The Heav iest Fall of Snoic Ever Kaoica. The Sioux City Journal says: The biggest and most severe snow storm ever know u In this part of the coun try within the. recollection of our < 1- dest inhabitants, came on in 1850, twenty years ago yes'eidty after noon. It extended over th-* greatei part of low,i, a portion of Nebraska and Dakota. It prevailed for two lays and two nights, during which time it was alun st impossible for a person to see halt way across a street, and a portion of the time the snow is represented as having come down in such solid sheets as to af fectually conceal from view one's hand held at arms' length before his own eyes. The first day af<or the storm ceased the wind shifted to the north and blew a perfect gale, drift ing the snow badly and forming a crust upon it of sufficient thiokn • s to bear the weight of a man easily enough. This region of country was quite new twenty years ago, and wild game of all kinds was very plentv. Direitly after the snow storm aln>ve alluded to, the settlers started on the hunt after deer. Tiie snow was i deep and the crust scarcely heavy ! enough to bear the weight of the : deer, and when pursued and they sought escape in flight, they would : break through the %w crust and make very little progress The only weipnna the settlors ttsod when hunting the deer at tl at particular time were ail ax ami butcher knife -the former used ia knocking the game down when oveitaken, and tiie latter in severing the jugular, tu this manner the settlers supplied themselves with a sullicient amount .f venison to last their families for several months. Many amusing anecdotes are re lated hy one of our old settlers as having occurred during that fearful hlizztid. We will uumtion a single one. (en. Il*arh, then receiver of tin' United States land otliee here, started from his otliee, a log cabin, where now stands 11. 1). Booge i o.'n wholesale building, t< his resi dence on Upper Douglas* street. Ttio general lost his hat inmfdiately upon venturing out of uoors, but he laughed at the fury of the storm and kept on. There were at. that lime few buildings standing either on Fourth or Douglass streets, and thore were not many visible land matks for the general to follow to servo as a guide home. It is no wonder then that, after having trav eled in the teeth of the storm for a considerable I iuie, lie found himself run t bank down near where the Chicago house now stands. The general, as a matter of c nirso, was very cold, hiving s ilb ml consider ably from Wing out only a short tinv. As stated, he was bareheaded, and, having n- gloves upon 1m hands, he coul I u..t give his head that attention he might have done had his hands been well gloved. Toe result was that by the time the gen eral reached home he was about ex hausted. his ears and lingers were somewhat frosted, and his head, perpendicularly, was |< ugtheiiedsev eral inches liy the snow driving through his liair to the scalp and there fm zing, forming an aim's! solid mass of ice. Icicles depended from his ears, nose and hair, and lie was a sight to Itclmld bef >re being thawed out again In tlii>s* d ivs the few settlers in •Sioux ily had ccumul itis 1 c msi I to able stock a.moil t leui, tut til.* cattle were illy pr ivid. d with s'n l ter. They stood hum;ed up in groups, and when they liecaiuethirs ty they strayeo iusiinctivelv toward the river. The snow had drifted badly along the bai k. and many head of rattle plunged into these drifts in their eft uUsto reann the wt ter and vwre 1 i-t, their Itodies not being discovered until the break u > of the following spring. Many mules were also lost in the sum" ui.uiner. "Onlj Twenty-!De t tails—A'iio Takes the Next. There's a wandering genius around •he Central Market who Iras for salt an* article dcscrfikHl by hiin to the public in a loim lone, as follows : "Gentlemen, a British nobleman invented this article and lie spent eighteen years thinking and experi menting over it. Von will observe that it is a glass cutler, a can opener, a knife-sharpener, puttv-kuife, a nail-cleaner and a bread knife com bined.

The man explained its merits anil uses, com mented on its different uses, and <idded : "V"U want one, of course ?" "I guess inn,"' said the farmer. 44 Why ?" "Ob, it doesn't seem to be of much use."
