PRACTICE rs. THEORY,

The VINDICAToR showed last week
that the price of wool for the fourteen
Low Tariff years preceding 1860 was
higher than 1t has been since, under a
High Tariff. and that it was to the inter-
est of the farmers who raise wool that it
should BIZ free. The theorists of High
Tariff claim the opposite. This week we
met on the cars, County Surveyor J. Fl.
Callison, of this county, who is farmer
as we'll. ''There ISL said he, "a question
I'd like to have you ask the Valley Virqin-
ian: Why is it that before the war sold
my fine wool in New York, Lowell,
Undertook and other manufacturing
places, North, at from 55 to So cents, and
since the war under High tariff 1 have
to sell it at % to % cents?" This is
question many farmers beside Mr.. CALI
son are asking. Perhaps our neighbor
can answer it.

by Mi. Hewett in the artificial
manufacture Of q%ninine will re-
suit in the reduction OF the price
OF that article to a few cents

this discovery is rendered great

erto dependence has been on
the cultivation of the cinchoaa
tree for quinine, the bark yield
