ported from every section. Clover makes
the farm rich.
Fay's prolific currant has sustained its
good character as a big yielder of the
largest sized red currants
A short clip Of wool is one of the effects
of drought reported from Texas.
The marked advance in the price of
wool is the natural result Of the general
shortage in the wool clip.
Wyandottes and the better strains of
Plymouth Rocks, appear to be running q
neck to neck race for popularity as general
purpose fowls.
Ventilation is better than refrigeration,

Everybody who has o stock of hops on
hand is happy on account of the marked
advance in prices.
Good sized horses are in demand.
Apples are plentiful and there is a fair
export trade.
1t pays to burn the garden over after
the grass md weeds are fully dried. Fire
in the fall saves much wedding in the
spring.
Lovett, the nursery MN, uses first a
cushioned head for pressing apples into

may be employed instead, under the per-
manent head. The cushioned head or the
newspapers are removed after the apples
are pressed, and the permanent head is

SECRETARY MANNING's REPORT.
The silver Question Its Principal Topic.
Free Wool Advocated.

WASHINGTON, Dec 6-The annual report
Of Daniel Manning, secretary Of the treas
ury, has BEEN given TO the public 1t is
lengthy document, the main points OF which,
however, may be presented briefly as fol-
lows:
To stop the purchase Of silver is our only
choice, our duty and our interest
1t will stop a wasteful and injurious ex-
pense, and the taxation which defrays IT,
1t will commence aud promote reform in
the sum and the methods OF Federal taxa
ton
It will recover to the United States an
equality of position mon coinagel with for
eign powers, whice will give us due influence
in negotiation.
1t Will induce negotiation, and negotiation
TO the end OF relief, not for the purpose Of
delay.
Stopping the purchase and coinage OF sill
yer is the first step, and the best which the
the United States can take doing their great
part TO repair the monetary dislocation Of
the world Its origin was foreign its remedy
is international. The time is ripe for this
powerful commonwealth to enter decisively
upon that international transaction. The
ripe moment must not be let slip
1t remains t. consider the reduction Of
taxation to the needs of the government
| economically administered. 1t is my belief
that whenever we begin taking off the
shackles of war tariff taxes on raw materials
/ such increased prosperity will follow 10 the
employers who dread il, and such larger and
steadier employment 30 the wage-earners who
need it, by increasing the sale abroad Of our
own manufactures, and by whipping out
foreign competitors in our own markets, that
we shall see our income from imported manu-
facturers dwindle so fast that not only to
| compel the retention Of the most fit items OF
| revenue-whisl1y, tobacco and beer-but,
perhaps, to drive us back to getting ten mill
| lions Of revenue from two cents pound tax

naturally exposed to all those attentions
that a creature so lovely and unprotect-

will.
In the young man whom she had Just
left, those attentions gradually took a
degree of tender interest, which, but for
her state of anxious preoccupation, she
must have OF served long before, as 9TH

But she had literally given the devo-
ton, so apparent TO others, no thought.
Knowing herself to be bound by the
most solemn ties to the man who seemed
to have forgotten her, she never reflected
that others knew nothing of this. or that
she light become the object of affection

man had Just declared.
Now it only served to add another
pang to the bitterness of her grief :;
heart-wounded, neglected as she had
