The Difference in vclOe OF Good
Grades and Scrub stock
Readers of market reports have prob
ably noticed that prices on cattle, hogs and
sheep have been lower than they were q
year ago, the extent Of reduction on these
various products being in the order named.
In regard TO the irst-named. however, the
National Gazette says: "The quality con-
tinues to fall much below the average Of
former years, al q corresponding period.
The truth is, that on the very best grade
of cattle prices show hardly any reduction,
and for the very best stock Sc to 81 per
100 pounds 10 readily obtained to-day. II
lie the old story, always room on top.
Mediocrity is the characteristic Of the
masses always, morally, commercially and
physically. The story has been 30 often
told that TO repeat it seems to court, in
deed. that WEAKNESS characteristic, on
excellent authority, of q 'twice-told
tsle.' And yet the subject Is import
ant enough to justify reiteration. The
difference between the cost Of the best and
the cost OF the middling and OF the inferior
is in inverse ratio to their price. The
two-year-old steer, weighing 1900 pounds.
and OF prime quality, readily fetching Sc to
81 per 100 pounds, say, in round figures,
500. cost no more to raise than the me-
dunn to good three-year-old. weighing l 400
to /, 800 pounds, fetching SIS per 100 pounds.
or $50 to S65. The difference In selling
price, however, makes just the difference
between a proftless and q profitable animal.
In the latter case. the profit. after deducting
the feed consumed. would not be worth
mentioning, and certainly would not pay
for the labor bestowed in caring for the AMI.
NAL. In the other case the animal pays q
handsome profit, not only on his own cost,
but on the share of the general investment
In the farm. buildings and plant with
which he, like every other item in the
farm production. is properly c~hargeable'
OF course. such 3 beast requires good care
and good feed, In the present case we are
estimating him to consume as much in two
wears as the other does in three, but the
essential starting point is in the breed"

Farmers and ThiiNbic.
Higscrs.

Farmers are becoming aware of
the vast fraud, of which they are
the victims, wrought by high tar
if. They have been told that pay
ing high taxes upon everything they
buy would bring them high prices
for their produce, as the tariff would
create for them a mighty home de-
mand, and the home market would
support prices to higher rate than
could be obtained in any foreign
market. The years have gone on,
yet still Liverpool and not the home
market regulates the prices tie
farmers have to accept. How this
works for the farmers may be judged
of by the price that has been pay
ing IN the market for the last crop
of wheat. In a Western exchange
paper Southern farmer expresses
himself as troubled respecting the
following point: "If England fixes
the price of my cotton on a free
trade basis, and the mill corpora
tons and Congress of this nation
fix the prices of goods which l buy
on high-tariff basis, how docs the
tariff benefit me?" If there were
no tariff he would buy at free-trade
rates and sell at free. trade rates.
AS it is he has to sell at free
trade rates, while he is made to buy
at high-taritf rates. That is how
the thinnhle-rig game is PLAYED on
the farmer, and what he is defrauded
of the monopclist pockets, laughing
heartily to think how he has bam-
boozled the sheep of farmer with
his snow you see it and now you
