Something for Free-Traders to Read.

National Republican, May 10.
Mr.. NJ. S. Brewer, United States consul general
at Berlin, has furnished the state department
with a schedule of the wages earned by mechanics
in that city which should be carefully studied by
the traif reformers in Congress. Mr.. Brewer says
that nearly all the necessares Of life cost much
in Berlin as in New York. Meats Of all kinds,
-four, bread, butter, fish and fruit even more
expensive than in New York wooden and linen
goods, boots, shoes, and clothing generally are
cheaper. All mechanics work from eleven and a
half to thirteen hours day.
Stonecutters earn S42S per week glasscutters,
$3.50: brassfounders, $476; filecutters, 1892
toolsmiths, 1857 working thirteen hours day y
molders, $4.99; masons, STA; carpenters, $4.99
painters, $4.99, and so on to the end. These are
the highest-priced workmen. Apprentices get
from $l.66 to 50 week, and laboring women in
the mechanical trades get from $1.90 to $2.14.
Women in Germany perform labor which in the
United States is monopozed by the strongest
men.
The list of prices of the standard articles Of
food given by Mr.. Brewer show the. subsistence
costs about as much in Berlin as in Washington.
Wheat flour is $5to Sc per hundreds eggs, % cents
per dozen; butter, 30 to SO cents per pound beef
and mutton, for roass, II to 20 cents pork, 16 to
20 cents per pound, pound loaf of wheat bread,
10 to IL cents; black bread (rye,) about half the
price of wheat bread. This bread is preferred by
very many among the wealthy classes, and is un-
ivcrsaly used by the laboring classes. The Ger
man laboring people spend less for living than
the laboring people in the United States; but
necessity has taught them to be more economical.
After looking at Mr.. Brewers price list, one
will be surprised to learn that 100000 Germans
leave their native land and come to the United
States every year.

~The Annapolis Republican (DemOcratic)
says "the Court of Appeals has added another
wise decision to the jurisprudence of the State in
giving to Mr.. Philip A. Kroh the Office to which
the Governor had appointed him, and in uphold
ing the Governors hands as the real executive Of
the State. As the Court of Appeals said, in the
celebrated case of McBlair VS.. Bond, conf
dence must be lodged somewhere, so the trainers
of our organic law reposed confidence in their
Governor, an officer for whom the people vote d.
rectly, and to whom the Governor is Immediately
RESPONSIBLE"

9- The reply of the Towsontown Voice to the
Westminster Advocate appears to have stirred up
the bile Of the latter, and it replies follows
"The Advocate supposed that the Peoples Voice,
when removed from Reisterstown to Towsontown,
would at least be respectable journal, although
factional; but its remarks on the Advocates allu-
sion to its removal show that it will be run on q
basis unworthy of the attention of better class
journals" Now we expect to see the Voice peo-

Docs Shelter Pay2

With the beginning of cold weather,
the necessity of giving the stock ample
protection becomes apparent. Wise far.
mers not only agree to this, but expert.
ments have shown the wisdom of giving
the stock warm shelter during Winter.
To obtain tho comparative effect produced
by both shelter and exposure, the Ohio
Experiment Station separated 10 hogs
into two lots each, giving one lot the best
of shelter while the other lot was given
but ordinary shelter. This experiment
was continued from Dec. z, 1882, to
March %, 1883. The pigs were fed alike
corn In the ear twice daily, and plenty
Of pure water at all times. There was
but difference of two pounds in the
amount of. corn consumed by the two
lots. 3,240 pounds of corn were fed to
the pigs in the closed pens, which made
an increase of $50 pounds In weight.
3.242 pounds Of corn were fed 10 The pigs
In the open pen, which made an increase
of 220 ponnds. The sheltered animals
required 9t pounds of corn to make one
pound of increase, while those Ia the
open pen required IS pounds. From fig.
ures given by the Station, the pigs In the
open pen during the coldess periods re-
| quired 17.6 pounds of corn to d he one
pound Of increase, while those in the
closed pen required only rs pounds of
corn to make o pound of meat. These
flgurea ara facts, and speak for themselves.
We cannot afford to allow stock to stand
ehivering in cold barns all Winter.
Plaster up the rIptures In the wallis,
replace broken panes Of glass with whole
ones, cover the cracks in the sides OF the
barn. ahingle the roofs and prepare for
Winter. Il will pay every time. s!,
