More Chickens Needed.

An egg famine Is said to be prevail
ing, the great scarcity of the indispen.
sable product of the chickens making
the price unusually high. The owner
OF flock of hens that uninterruptedly
continue their productive duties, has
something that is truly very profitable
at this time. 1t is to be believed, how.
ever, that the present scarcity and high
price OF eggs are not so much on ac-
count of a remissness on the part of the
fowls as because sufficient attention is
not given to chicken culture to our
farmers. Poultry is a branch of pro-
ductiOn to which but slight attention
is accorded and as consequence it con-
tributes comparatively little to the pro-
fits of the farm. The Indifferent atten-
tion that is given to the rearing of
chickens must necessarily be attended
with irregular and unsatisfactory re-
suits. Ifthe farmer has luck with them
a reasonable supply of poultry and eggs
may be expected. But it is very sell
dom that his luck Is the result of care
and attention devoted to the manage
merit of his poultry. It is too much a
matter of chance. The intelligence and
enterprise he devotes to other products
is entirely wanting in his chicken cul-
ture, and thus what might be source
of profit to be depended upon with
more certainty, if intelligent care is
given it, than upon crops subject to the
changes of the weather and the seasons
is but of small account in swelling the
income of the farmer. Such being the
case it is no wonder that we have peri
odically an egg famine when, as we
heard lady remark the other day, eggs
can be scarcely had for love of money.
1t is easy to see what profit there would
be in such an emergency to the farmer
whose premises were we'll supplied with
fowls doing their whole duty, as they
usually do when carefully and intelli-
gently attended to. Although we do
not speak from experience. 1t seems to
us that much larger number of chick
ems than are now to he found on farms
as q general thing, would be one of the
most reliable sources of income even
with eggs at the ordinary price.

England at the Tail End.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-The dismissal of
Lord Sackville by President Cleveland puts
the members of the British legation at the
foot of the list of the diplomatic corps in
Washington. Lord Sackville stood fifth on
the list, but his dismissal sends his successor,
whoever he may be, and all his official
household to the bottom. Precedence in the
diplomatic corps is determined on all official
occasions in Washington by length of ser
vice. In the courts of Europe it is regulated
by the official rank of the diplomatic repre-
sentative, ambassadors always going first,
then ENJOYS, and last ministers resident
Under the system which prevails in this
capital it has happened for some years past
that the representative OF the republic Of
Hayti is the dean OF the diplomatic corps.
Thus Hayti, the most feeble government in
the whole civilized world. and the poorest
will. through its representative, stand first
ON the list of official honors here while Great
Britain, the most powerful and richest
comes in at the tail end. This condition
might be awkward in the courts of Europe,
but it does not amount to very much here.

There can be no question that the pro-
tective, features of the tariff are to-day
sustained by the great agricultural COM
munities of the country, and it affords
a subject of curious inquiry why this
should be so. There must be some deep
seated reason or prejudice that in the
light of the present knowledge on the
subject can influence intelligent men
year after year to retain heavy taxa
tion on themselves in order to confer
supposed benefits on other classes of in
dustry. Chicago Herald.

The Republican Vice President.elect,
L. p. Morton. gave $3.50, 900 as his con-
tribution to the campaign fund of the
Republican National Committee. War
ner Miller, the Republican candidate
for Governor of New York, contributed
800, 900 to the same big campaign fund.
Thus these two Republican miliionaires
gave $350,000. Alger, of Michigan, is
said to have given 100000. AS each of
the great Republican millionaires is pre-
sumed to have contributed in the same
proportion, it can be seen where the
millions which corrupted the doubtful
states came from. AS these millionaires
received most of their immense wealth
through monopolies sustained by the
Republican war tariff they can afford
to give large percentages of 1t to corrupt
the people in the ''donbtful States"
