Because then the blood stream ia
sluggish and chilled by the cold wealth

made to flow quickly and heaIthfully

possible to have good vigor the rest Of

what is now known as Warmers Log

made and religiously given to every
member Ofthe family regularly through
March, April, May and June. 1t is a
matter of record that this prudential,
preventive and restorative custom
saved many fit of sickness, prolonged
life and happiness to a vigorous old age,
and did away with heavy medical ex-

THE WOOL TARIFF.
of the Flockmasters of
the Southwest Over Ordinary
Farmers.
from the Chicago Tribune I

|
Some years ago, on the basis of the
careful inquiry in all the Northern
States, it was stated by the Commission
er of Agriculture that the average cost
of keeping sheep in the States east of
the Missouri river was $2.65 per head
per annum. Taking these figures a
careful calculator presented the Wool
Manufacturers Association the follow
ing statement of the comparative cost
of keeping sheep in the States and on
the plains:
Three thousand sheep in States
at $2.G5 per head.................... $3.50
Three thousand sheep on plains
one herder at $50 per month,
including board -. :. ............... 5000
One hundred and fifty tons of
hay to used in case of uncom-
comfy severe storms. ........... 600
$1,000
Difference in favor of the plains $6,75o
1t was just this enormous difference
between the cost of keeping sheep on
the plains and in the States that caused
the decay of sheep husbandry in the
States east of the Missouri and the
transfer of the business to the South
west. Farmers living on high-priced
land and in severe climate could not
compete with the ranchmen of tho
Southwest in wool-growing, and while
reducing their fiocks had to look to the
mutton value of the animals, or if they
relied at all on wool for profit to breed
only sheep producing the finest fleeces,
while the Southwestern fiockmasters
assumed monopoly in the production
of common coarse wool. No tariff
could protect wool-growers east of the
Missouri from the destructive compe-
ton waged from the Southwest. With
the odds SO greatly in favor of the
millionaire flockmasters of the South
west the farmers in the States from
Iowa to New York had to abandon
wool-groWing with a view to profit to
the wool clip and confine themselves
to growing small number of sheep for
mutton. .n.. m#a
These great fiockmasters in the south
west who have enjoyed such enormous
advantages in competition with ordi-
nary farmers, and have made wool
growing Improbable for the latter, have
perfected a new wool tariff schedule
which they intend urging on Congress.
In brief, they propose to increase the
duties on fine Ohio and Michigan waol
ten per cent. and OH coarse ranch wool
100 per cent: Moreover, they propose
to advance and rearrange the tariff on
manufactured woolens so as to greatly
increase the cost of blankets, w0men's
and children's common dress goods and
the like--articles of necessity in the
family of eI cry farmer. With tre-
mendous advantage over ordinary
farmers In wool growing, these million
aire fiockmasters of the plains demand
ten times the amount Of tariff protec-
tion they concede to the wool growers
In the States, and at the same time pro-
pose that the price of woolen goods In
the latter shall be advanced. And In
preparing this programme of greed,
and urging it on Congress, Delano &
Co., claim to represent the farmers east
ofthe Missouri, and to be advocates Of
their interests.

A Valuable Work.
Piscataquis Observer. |

t1The office Of labor commissioner is one
that the people of Maine would be slow tc
abolish. One of the best things done by the
commissioner and his deputy is to break up
in measure at least, the practice which has
prevailed in many places, of keeping young
children in factories and other industrial es
tablishme hts when they ought to be in school
1t is provided by law that all children be
tween the ages of twelve and sixteen, EN-.
ployed in such establishments, must be pro.
vided with a certificate of their age and OF
their attendance at school, at least sixteen
weeks during the previous year. 1t is I'M
doubleday true that some parents run the
risk of 500 fine imposed in such cases and
deliberately issue false certificates, and that
certain per cent. of children employed are
less than twelve years of age. Owing to the
extreme difficulty of detection the only way
to entirely overcome the evil is the better
education of public opinion.

BATES COLLEGE.

Co-education is in all respects a success at
Bates. The college prides itself upon the
fact that not only have its doors been open
to young women from the first. but it was
the first New England college to admit young
women on an equality with young men.
! That this privilege is appreciated may be
| judged from the fact that thirty-two are now
taking the full course. And it is TO be said
| in their behalf, and in contradiction to what
is commonly supposed to be true, that their
rank averages as high or higher than the
young men. The vsledictory in IS was by
| young woman. Bates has also to her cred
it the fact that she sends out teachers who
have reputation not equalled by those of
any other Maine college. This is undoubtedly
due to the splendid drill obtained under Prof
Stanton, who occupies the chair of ancient
languages, and who probably has not his su-
perior in New England. Prof. Stanton has
refused the offer of large salary from Har-
ward, and good offers from other colleges.
The Rev. Martyr Summerbell was iu-
| stalled as pastor of the college church Thurs
day evening, in the presence of large audi
dience. The exercises were all of an inter-
esting character, and an eloquent sermon
was preached by the Rev. c. E. Cate of
Haverhill Mass.
