Increasing import duties to prohibit i'm
portation is one way the Republicans propose
reducing the surplus, thereby enhancing the
price of the necessities of life to the people.
Another plan, to go along with the other, is
TO make whisky and tobacco free, by the re.
peal of the Internal revenue tax. Free wills

Free raw materials make low cost of pro-

markets; increase of markets makes increased
demand for goods; increased demand for
goods makes increased demand for employ
ment, and increased demand for employment
makes increase of wages.-HOn. r. Q. Mills.

Fertilizer Announcement for
the Fall of 1888.
1t has been our custom for years to call all

1t has been our custom for years to call all
farmers attention to our various brands of
Fertilizers for fall crops. But the first thing
we want to do is to congratulate our farmers,
and with them all citizens, on the excellent
crop of wheat and rye just harvested in our
county. 1t is also a source of great pleasure
for us 10 know that the various brands of
Fertilizer sold by us last fall in competition
with so many others has in every case equaled
our competitors, and in very many cases far
excelled them, both in the yield of wheat and
rye and in its maturing.
One OF our customers, to whom we sold four
tons last fall, can't praise it enough. He has
just left his order for nine tons for this fall.
Another party, who used but half ton of our
Fertilizer last fall, and several tons of other
goods, intends to increase his acreage in wheat
this fall, and will use all of our goods.
Another farmer, whom we induced to try
some of our Cheap Fertilizer-our $40 goods
used it by the side of fertilizer he bought.
of an agent, and for which he paid forty per-
cent more for than he paid us. Ours gave.
him equally as good results.
The reports we have from the clover where
our Fertilizes- was used is satisfactory.
We have many other reasons and facts why
we think it would pay the farmers to get their
Fertilizer from US this fall, and will present.

everybody to look out for them and read them.

a Rurs an Oh Well.

In the Baku oil district in Russia
the Togieff well is spouting petroleum.
to the height of 224 feet, and the dis
charge every twenty four hours is es-
|timated at IL, 900 tons. The scene at
the well is said to be awful. The dis
charge IS accompanied by an awful
roar; great stones are hurled a terrific
distance, while the wind carries the
fine sand which spou,s up with the oil
often miles away. II is to be regretted
that most of the oil spouted from this
well will be lost.
Such a waste seems barbarous; yet,
owing to the want of pipe line to
run It to the Black Sea, nearly all of
the Q. $50, 900 gallons discharged every
| "a hours will be lost in the sands
which lie around the orifice, deterio-
rate in the lakes, or mingle with the
waters of the Caspian Sea. An effort
of course, will be made to put a cap
over the well and keep the oil below
the surface until wanted, but an enor-
nous waste will have resulted. With
the present prices which prevail for
crude oil in Eaku, it is questionable
WnetnbT tntTb WOulu uC hiuCu ptOub
In saving this oil after storage was
paid upon 1t, for 1t is said that 900 gal
Ions OF crude oil sold there will realize
no greater price than the London i'm
porter pays for one gallon of refined
American oil.
A pipe line is what the Russian oil
districts need, and with its completion
and consequent development of the
enormous resources of the Baku dis
trict, it will be very difficult matter
for the American oil producers to sue,
cesstully compete with the Russian oil
in the European markets. A pipe line
is now projected from Baku to Ba-
toum, on the Black Sea 1t will, 1t is
said, receive the cordial support of the
Government and four great European
firms, including the Rothschilds of
Paris, who have recently made large
investments In oil property at Bakur
and Batoum and are said to have bid
for the contract to bald the line. 1t
will cost SIG 900, 900 and will be $50
miles long. The pipe is to be large
