Ed. GREAT WEST:

If you have any data at hand by
which you can furnish me informa-
ton on the following questions I
would be very much obliged for
same. Statements were made to an
assembly Of farmers that I think
were misleading, and if SO I wish to
present the exact condition to the
farmers OF this community in connec-
tion with Alliance work.
Questions:
How many bushels of wheat is the
u. S. growing per capita?
How many bushels are used for
food per capita?
How many bushels are used for
seed?
What is the ratio of the beef cattle
used for food to the population OF the
U. S.
What is the ratio of whole num-
Der Of cattle produced to the popula-
ton?
If you can give me any statistics
and authority on the above l would
be under obligations to you. Respy
Yours, FRED ELwELL.
Zumbrota, Mimi, Feby 1890.
ANSWERS.
A little less than ten bushels per
head was raised in 1889. About 5
bushels per head is used for food.
The seed question is uncertain.
But about 40 million acres to be
seeded.
The cattle questions we will have
to leave until we have a little time to
look up in the reports. But it has
been nearly ten years since census
was taken.

The following are the resolutions
passed by the Blue Earth Co., ALI
ance at their recent meeting. The
proceedings we're so long that we
have not been able to find room for
them all:
RESOLVED, That we take pleasure
in recognizing the fact that the Ali
ance is prospecting with renewed life
and vigor never before manifested in
all it's history, and we earnestly re-
commend the farmers of this county
to ally themselves with view to
their own best interests.
RESOLVED, That we condemn all
gambling in grain or other articles
OF human food by others in the fu-
ture and ask Congress to enact such
laws as will make such transactions q
criminal offense.
RESOLVED, That we demand of our
senators and representatives in con-
gress that ample provision be made
in the coming census for the enumer-
alton of the mortgaged Indebtedness
of the farms Of this county.
RESOLVED, That we are not salts
fed with the actions of the board of
control of the States Prison in not
introducing the manufacture of bind
ing Irvine. We believe that the pro-
ject was and still is practical, and
that the farmers of this state have
not been fairly treated in the sum-
mary disposition which has been
made of that matter.
RESOLVED, That the exchange sys-
TEN adopted by the millers whereby
they practically take one-fourth in
stead of one-eighth as allowed by law,
is an unjust tax upon the farmers,
and we urge such radical legislation
as will prevent the wrong and also
recommend the erection of farmers
mills for the purpose of manufacture
ing their own flour.
RESOLVED, That we respectfully in
sist that our member in congress
shall support such legislation as will
positively suppress the beef combina-
ton which has practically destroyed
cattle culture in the whole country
and robbed both the farmer and the
consumer to create millionaires at
their expense.
RESOLVED, That the farmers pay
more than their equal share
of the taxes of the country
and we ask such re-adjust-

We have received the annual mes
sage from Gov. Larrabee, Iowa. 1t is
a large pamphlet, and a treasure
house OF information regarding the
advanced position of that state.
On trust and combinations he
says:
although the toll of the husband
man, our fertile soil, and a propiti-
Gus season have combined to give US
bountiful crops, it is a question
whether our farmers fully share in
the general prosperity. Through
trusts and combinations the prices
of many of the necessaries of life are
greatly increased to the undoubted
disadvantage of the farmer, who
does not receive just equivalent in
the exchange of commodities. 1t is
clear that this evil is aggravated by
the incongruities of the present tariff,
and tariff revision should be no
longer delayed. The accumulation
of funds in the national treasury is
the fruitful source of many evils
And in commentator of the work.
ing of their prohibition law he OBJ
serves:
eff the number of prisoners con-
tinues to decrease in the same ratio
in which it has decreased during the
last four years, we shall soon have
our prisons for rent or SALE"
And to this he adds:
'Iowa capital, which for several
years sought speculative investments
beyond our borders, realizing the
magnitude and stability of our re-
sources, is fast returning to aid in
the building up of our industries and
the enhancement of our commerce.
