The Philadelphia Record says 1.-THE
tendency of the times toward the concen-
tration Of capital Is strikingly shown by
the statistics of the iron trade. The pro-
duction OF pig iron in this country has in
creased somewhat since 1880, but the
number Of blast furnaces has largely de-
creased. On Jan. l. 1880, there were 6Tl
blast furnaces in the United States; Jan.
!. 1885, this number had been reduced to
bs1. The number OF furnaces in opera
ton was reduced from 1855 on Jan. /, 1880,
10 276 on Jan. 1, 1886, a decline of 112."

There is no doubt as TO the fact that
Geronimo and his band are deserving OF
the extreme penalties OF the law. There
is an idea prevalent that they are to be
tried by a military commission, and it is
doubted if such a commission would be
constitutional and legal body. There
does not seem 10 be any reason for bellev-
ing that the government will authorize
any form OF trial that is not strictly legal
as well as constitutional. Premature
discussions OF the question are idle and
entirely uncalled for.

A member of the American Associa-
ton for the Advancement OF Science pro-
posed, at tho recent meeting in Buffalo,
the substitution OF "cementation" of the
dead as something better than cremation
or the present mode OF burial. This plan
would protect and preserve the body,
says an exchange, but the fate OF the
Egyptian mummies suggests that the
solicited remains might, in some far dis
taut era, be ground and used as fertil-
izers or exhibited as curiosities by the
thrifty or scientific people Of that time.

backed down from its position on the subject
of compensating Anne lean steamships for
carrying foreign mails Its position was
thatit would not divide the special appro-
priation authorized for that purpose among
the cOmpanie-, but would pay the sea and
inland postage for the service. After refus-
ing for more than q year to accept the latter
and perform the service. the companies nm
ally came to terms and accepted an offer that
had all the while been open to them. III
there was any backing down that operation
was certainly not performed by the Post Of

Good drumming, as well as advertising,

British Consul at Madrid states in his Of
fetal report that the value of German
goods imported into Spain in 1884 was
93, 547, 00O,or twenty-six times the amount
of the German imports of twenty years
ago. He says that while Spanish mer-
chants often complain about the "shoddy"
character of German goods, nevertheless
German commercial travellers constantly
outsell their English and French rivals.
Mr.. Gosling thinks that Englishmen
might we'll take lessons of German
agents and travellers. The latter always
speak Spanish, and are hence at great
advantage over those who must offer their
goods through an interpreter or can
merely show their price lists. At Mala-
ga, he adds. there exists an entire colony
of young Germans, who study the Span
ish language and Spanish taste.

The Dairy.

1t is better to milk twice daily as long
as the milk is saved for use.
Three creameries in Madison county,
Iowa, pay the farmers from s125.000 to
$4,000
The quantity of milk necessary to make
a pound of butter varies greatly, ranging
from nine to fifteen quarts.
The cheese factory at North Turner,
Me-, turned out over 50 tons of cheese last
season from 610, 934 pounds of milk.
The creamery of the factory does the
work of hundred pairs of hands, and
turns out ton of butter or cheese at the
cost of the labor OF one-tenth as many /;
that is, the manufacture of dairy goods,
under this system, is reduced 90 per cent.
John Anderson of Meredith Hollow has
sold from ten COWS, all natives, Zone of
which is a two-year-old heifer,) $500 lbs.
of fine butter supplying one family be-
sides his own with milk; amount paid for
extra feed, S55.23.
While barn Easements make warm and
comfortable quarters for stock, there is
reason for giving mich cows some exer-
else in the open yard every dav, and on
sunny winter days considerable length
of time. 1t will increase tie flow and
value OF the dairy product. and will also
help the cow to prepare for bringing forth
a healthy calf in the spring. Too little
light. air and exercise are bad for the cow
at this time.
Sometime difficulty arises by churning
in cold room, when the agitation of the
cream and the constant current OF cold
air though it chills 1t so much as to over
come all the advantages of careful setting
and cause difficulty in getting the butter
Over-churning will surely iniure the quail
ty of the butter. 1t is better to warm
the cream to 65 degrees when IL is put
into the churn, and to secure prompt
churning. than to risk danger by cooling
the cream and long work in gathering.
Mr.. Tivy in St. Louis paper reports
about l00, 900 lbs. of butterine made in
East St, Louis in three months. Kansas
City in the same time made $500 lbs.
Oleo oil is made in St. Louis and exported
to Holland and other countries. The
weekly output of oleo oil in East St,
LOUIS during the past winter was $50
tierces; in Kansas City, 200 tierces; in
Chicago. 200 tierces. From the Rotter-
dam papers it would appear that the aver
age receipts of oleo oil in that city are
oils and chiefly made in Chicago. For
the manufacture of all these artificial
buffers, if they NAV be so called, patents
have been issued to many parties United

Our Beef Supply.

Some cOntemporaneous journals are and
have been gravely discussing the ques
ton of our future beef supply. 1t is pre-
dicted that in a comparatively few years
the people of the United States will not
eat beet from Christmas to Christmas. 1t
is also held that pork and mutton will
constitute the limited supply of animal
food they will use. At the late National
Convention OF Stockmen. Mr.. Colman,
commissioner of agriculture, expressed
the belief that it would not be many years
before the beef supply of the United States
would merely suffice to meet the demands
at home. leaving none for export.
Through figures taken from the census
reports it was held that the population was
constantly gaining on the number of beef
producing animals; also that the great
grazing sections of the West were gener-
ally stocked to their full capacity from the
Rio Grande to the Canadian border.
There was an error in statement in
this and an error in judgement. The
wild lands of the United States are not
fully stocked as to their grazing capacity.
BY the time they are so stocked the sowing
of superior grasses and the shetering of
animals will allow double the feeding ca
pacity of the present wasteful system.
Alfalfa will do for the plains, meas
urabv, what clover has for the country
east of the Mississippi. Forage crops and
grain will assist in swelling the animal
products. and the surplus animals not
capable of being fattened on their native
| feeding grounds will be sent eastward to
be fattened on the corn and other forage
products of States east of the dry region.
! Again, the area of successful cultivation
is constantly being extended west, and ir-
rigation is Yet in its infancy on the plains
and the valley region beyond. As density
of population increases, other food than
meat will be more and more used; and
not to human detriment 1t will result in
greater diversity OF food. greater va
riety in the preparation of grains, and es-
pecialv a fuller supply of the fruits of the
orchard and kitchen garden
One principal reason why our beef sup
ply has not kept pace with the growth of
population is the vast immigration that
has poured into this country year by year
The opening OF the new country year by
year. The opening of the new country to
settlers precludes the feeding of stock for
few years. but as the country grows
older. pastures. meadows and live stock
are introduced The United States may
contain 200 100000 of inhabitants before
any thought of beet famine need be
