TIE BUSINESS SITUATION.

The reports from the larger dis
.tributing points indicate, during
the past week, an Improvement in
trade, particularly in dry goods. In
Boston it is reported that the accu-
mutations Of dry goods lave de-
creased to a considerable extent.
The strike at Fall River has had an
effect, with good causes, to strength
en- the prices of cotton goods. The
iron trade continues to improve slow
ly, the price of pig having advanced
SO cents during the week; wheat
and corn have gained little, which
is due to falling off in the visible
supply rather than to any increased
demand; the boot and shoe trade as
yet shows no Improvement hog
products have advanced, which is
attributed to the falling away of the
number Of hogs received at the
packing centres. In the West the
prospect Of the lumber trade is re-
ported as encouraging. In wool, the
trade has been moderately active,
but manufacturers are buying only
to meet immediate wants.
The freshets on the Ohio and its
tributaries have greatly interrupted
trade in all that region, and have
caused considerable loss. Yet the
fact that Bradstreet's reports but
,257 failures during the last week
108 less than the preceding week
may be regarded as an indication
that the business of the country has
passed through the season of the
largest casualties of this character,
and that for the next few months
the number will be smaller. The
number the past week was only one
in excess of the corresponding peri
cd of last year. OF the failures of
last week SO per cent. were those of
small traders with 4 capital less
than $4,000. During the week the
bull interest has controlled the stock
market, Vanderbilt having, it is said
gone to the support of Gould. Some
stocks are said to be ''pegged," that
is, the prices are maintained rather
by the influence of strong hackers
than by their own intrinsic worth.
The money market is easy, call rates
being lower than the rate in interest
of the Bank of England, which was
advanced during the week to ID
per cent. Should this continue, it is
feared that it will cause flow of
gold from this country to Europe,
where most of the banking inStitu-
tions have advanced the rate of in
tercst in order to retain their gold.
On the whole, the outlook is re-
garded as moderately hopeful, but
not such as would lead the business
community to expect a season OF
unusual activity.-BoSton Journal

Mr.. Evarts thinks that the surest
way for the Republicans to secure a
Presidential candidate "who can
carry New York." is to seek that
candidate outside the State of New
York. This means of course that
President Arthur should not be the
candidate. MIR. Evarts is not very
wide of the mark on this point.

correction. 1t is prescribed that the
number of study-hours should be re-
stricted to twenty-six week for the
lowest classes of the gymnasia, and to
twenty-eight and thirty-two of the
higher; that the hours of home study
should be eight, twelve and eighteen
a week, progressing from the lowest
class to the highest: and that six
hours a week should be devoted to
general physical exercise, including
swimming, open air sports, skating
and excursions. While the exist
ing conditions will be somewhat
ameliorated by these DEGREES, they do
not seem to have brought about final
solution of the difficulty. Last year a
petition upon the subject, signed by
eminent teachers, physicians, and
other citizens, was addressed to the
Prussian chamber Of deputies. After
setting forth the deplorable effects Of
the excessive strain upon the nervous
system of scholars, it appealed to the
patriotism of the deputies to put ar

HOME, FARM AND RANCH
Avoid Farm Mortgages.

Money at per cent. will double in
ten years if the interest is kept invest
ed. If a farmer carries mortgage OF
say $1,000 for thirty years, it will cost
him about $35, 900 for the use of the
$1,000. This enormous figure obtained
by computing interest at ger cent
on the amounts paid, is no more than
fair estimate of the cost of such
mortgage, for the farmer can al.
ways invest his money in some
thing that will. doubtless yield him
per cent.
Therefore: Do not mortgage the
farm unless it seems absolutely nee
essary. But, as a general rule is less
valuable than particular one, it may
be well to specify by adding: Do MOI
mortgage to build fine house. BY
so doing you will have to pay money
for an Investment that does not bring
money, Do not mortgage your farm
to buy more land. Where there is alb
solute certainty that more can be
made out of the land than the cost OF
the mortgage, this rule might no1
apply. But absolute certainty is rare
mistaken calculation common. Dc
uot mortgage your farm unless yor
are sure of the continued fertility Of
the soil. Keep very clear of mort
gages.-Grange Bulletin.

Milk for Fattenfng Fowls,

What a different taste, fine, nicely
and quickly fatted fowl has, when
served on the table, compared with
one which has been forced to scratch
for all its living, and then be consign-
ed to the spit in anything but a fit
condition for food. Farmers realize
the Importance of fattening quickly
when feeding beeves tor the butcher,
yet many do not seem to realize the
fact that what holds with that kind
of meat is equally true when applied
to fowls. Tenderness and juiciness
are the results of fatten1ng quickly,
while mere ordinary flavor and want
of Tenderness result from letting
fowls run until wanted for use on
the table.
10 enable one to fatten fowls or
chicks quickly, it is absolutely neces-
sary to give such food as will accom-
plish the purpose best, and to this end
we unhesitatingly recommend plenty
milk, in any state, from fresh to thick.
This should be fed in connection with
grain diet, for one counteracts any
possible deleterious influence of the
other. If kept in a dark place and
fed unsparingly on milk, with grain
food, in the proper proportions, you
will have something very choice to
set upon your table. for your friends,
as well as for your family. When
milk is fed no water is required for
fattening fowls.-Poultry Yard.

COTTON HARVESTER.

1t is stated by the Charleston News
and Courier that the company own
ing the Mason Cotton Harvester will
not place any machines on sale this
year. A half dozen machines of diff
ferent sizes and patterns have been
constructed, and tests and improve
ments seem to be the present object
of the company. 1t appears that the
tests show the machines are yet far
from perfect, and the wisdom of the
company,1n not attempting to put any
of them on the market this year, Is
consequently, fully indicated. 1t is
claimed that many imperfections in
construction have been corrected, and
that the picking apparatus is now
working so satisfactory that fifty per
cent. of the open cotton is gathered
without injuring the plant or green
bolls in passing it over the row, and
by passing twice over the row seven
eighths of the open cotton is harvested.
1t is proposed, too, to construct double
4AoOA1hCo OO tndO III OuCS uI1fluS
along the row the work of gathering
may be finished One objection to
this machine is that it does not mani
pulate the cotton properly after being
taken from the stalks, dropping
much of it to the ground instead
of depositing it in the receiver. In
accordance with a suggestion of Col
Morehead, president of the National
Cotton Planters association, test
will be made at some point in South
Carolina, at an early day, before a
committee of the association and
other prominent gentlemen. It is
thought the machine will not be on
at New Orleans, but if the
tests, soon to be made prove satistac-
tory a construction company will beor-
ganized and machines will be built to
assist in taking off The crop of 1885.
All who have inspected the machine
think it will finally do the work, pro-
coSed to be done by it. In the mean
time the Austin company, also en-
gagged in perfecting acotton harvester,

nope of success, apparently, as the

COTTON BANKING.

THE STATESMAN has heretofore
made reference to the proposition of
Col. Cockrell, the great cotton planter
of Arkansas, to establish a cotton
land credit, or, stating it more def
nitely, cotton banking system with
cotton lands as the basis of credit. He
proposes TO secure from congress privi-
leges permitting of the use of cotton
lands in so called cotton bank, and
the further privilege of using silv er
certificates of deposit, payable on de-
mand, in the silver coin of the United
States, and to establish central bank
at New Orleans, with one branch
bank in each one of the
several cotton states, cotton
planters and cotton merchants to COM
pose all the boards of directors, the
central board at New Orleans to ap-
point the boards in the several states
There is little too much centralism
in this part of the scheme, but its gen
eral features are good, and we see no
reason why it should not be encour-
aged, for it would certainly give vitali-
ty to very necessary basis of credit
in quarter where 1t is greatly need
ed. 1t is proposed to vitalize the pro-
posed cotton bank by taking in cotton
men as stockholders, with their lands

ovERTAXING YOUNG MINDS.

of anxious solicitude on the part of
THE STATESMAN, and it is one, too,
which is attracting the attention of
the supervisors of education in all the
more learned and advanced commune

burg, Baden, Hesse and Alsace-Lor-

regard TO over-pressure of the young
mind, thorough investigation having
shown that physical exercise is not a
sufficient antidote to brain pressure;
that where the evil exists it must be
remedied by removal of the cause. In

evil, and report prescription flor its
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1884-10-16

The STATESMAN has repeatedly
called attention to the vicious habit
OF straining the minds of children.
Now comes DIR. Evans, the celebrated
American dentist of Paris, saying that
crammed children are always destined
to early toothlessness, and that the
best thing to do with bantling is to
treat it like young calf, and turn it
out to grass. The crown prince of
Austria has hardly tooth which was
not stuffed with gold before he was
half way through his teens. All the
phosphorus and lime they needed to
grow properly was spent in learning
how to "parrot" the science of his pre-
fessors. The Inflated Prince Louis
Napoleon's back teeth were aurifer-

tutors, Monier and Felon, to sweat"

Swept Into The Stream.
One Thousand Acres of Land and
"R1ght Smart of Bears"

On the deck of big Mississippi steamboat
| stood an aged Southern planter. Indicating
| bya sweep of his arm the waters the boat was
passing over, he said to a passenger from c
! North: "When / was twelve Years old
