[r. Armour's Great scneme.

Speaking of the Incorporation of the
Tolleston Stock Yards Company in New
Jersey the Chicago Journal says: The
kew to the riddle will be found when the
object of Mr.. Armours visit to Germany
becomes known That gentleman, who
ostensibly left on his vacation, has, it is
claimed, been in constant communlca>
ton with the German officials relative to
the raising of the embargo on the Amer
lean hog, although the information cans
not be considered official unless coming
directly from Mr. Armour, still, it comes
through man who is close to him. In
his negotiations with the German Off
Gals Mr. Armour has agreed, it is claimed,
to do the following: Provided the em-
barge is raised, he will, first of all, estab-
fish plant at Tolleson, Ind, which for
point of cleanliness cannot be eXcelled
anywhere. Secondly, he will pay the
salary of an Inspector to.be stationed at
the yards and to be appointed by the
German government. Thirdly, in order
that there can be chance of no contami-
nation he will ship the hog products to
Germany in special line of steel vessels.
In order to do this it will be necessary to
widen the Welland canal or some other
such communication with the seaboard
Mr. Armour asserts that the money fol

A Revolution Predicted.

It seems that the prediction of rev.
olution in this country, if the present fl
nancial programme of the Farmers ALI
ance is not successful, is not confined
alone to MFR. Brad. Beverly, of Virginia,
whose speech at Staunton we noticed
last week. A dispatch from st. Louis,
dated the 28th, has the following
account Of meeting in Texas where
similar sentiments were expressed It
reads:
The Farmers Alliance and knights Of Labor
Of the third and fourth Congressional districts
of Texas are holding an encampment at Sui
phur Springs and will continue for week.
Among the prominent persons present are SEN

far have all been IN favor of the Peoples party
movement and some of them of quite an intern

Encumberances on Farms.

A despatch from Washington, dated
the 2ath gives the following interesting
statement about farm encunberances in
the several states.
1.-THE count of the home and farm transcript
results are very nearly correct, though the fig
ures are subject to Slight modification. There
were returned by the enumerators for the Unit
ed States 2 a1 $50 farms and homes occupied by
owners and encountered by mortgages. This
number includes some farms and homes about
which the eflumerat0rS made no report and
which belong partly to the class OF hired aud
partly TO the class of owned and encountered.
Until this unknown quantity is eliminated, it
NAV be regarded as approximately true that
two and quarter million families of the twelve
and d half million families OF the United States
occupy and own encountered farms and homes,
and that ten and quarter million families oc-
cupy far,ns and homes that are either hired or
owned free. The proportion OF the hired and
owned free will be known when the population
division completes the count OF these points,
The preliminary results indicate that the aver
AGE debt for O farm in Iowa is 81 ,2S3 home STD;
average for farm and home S1140. II these
averages hold good for the union, the encum-
beranca on the farms and homes of the United
States occupied by owners is about 81, 56 600 COO.
The success of this investigation has been far
beyond the anticipation of the most experlenc
ed statstcians, and the result Will be of I'M
mense interest and value to the nation IncOm-
| plete returns from several western states indl-
| cate that farms and homes are mOrtgaged for
! about one third the value put upon them by the
| owners.

An engineer of the Southern Pacific
railway. who has examined the change
in the channel of the Colorado river
which is the cause of the remarkable
flood in southern California, says that,
while the tracks of the Southern Pacific
company are in no danger, it will be i'm
possible to stop the flow of water. In
his opinion the flood is permanent.
Should this prove to be the case the nat
ural attractions of one of the greatest
States OF the Union will be vastly in
creased. Great inland lakes will be
formed. and the moisture which they
will supply ought to make the desert
bloom like the rose. Whether there
will be change of temperature suffi.
Gent to injure the tropical products OF
the region, as some fear, the event only
can prove.

Whilst there is general depression in
business circles and general disposition
to hedge for fear of worse condition
of affairs, there has never been a year
which promised greater activity in bust
ness Good crop years are always count
ed as harbingers of good times ahead;
and taking this as ominous, there should
be feeling of confidence instead of de-
pendency as to the future. The crops
in general this year, those gathered and
in prospect, were never better, and adds
ed to this encouraging fact, comes the
news from Europe that the wheat crop
of that country is short and that all the
surplus of this country, and more, will
be required to supply the deficiency.
Certainly starvation does not stare Amer

The small York,hire..

English breeds OF swine, like their sheep,
have only recently become generally
known and understood in this country,
but the demand for improved breeds of all
animals has recently led to the importa-
ton of large numbers of the finest animals
of Great Britain. Great improvements in
ne-breeding were made about 100 years
ago in England and about twenty years ago
in this country. The introduction of new
blood here has greatly elevated the value
of the native animals, and there are new
systematic efforts made to keep frst-class
breeds separate. and to improve upon them.
The small Yorkshires are bred here as
carefully as any other breed, and from
the success obtained they have evidently
established themselves permanently on
American soil. The breed is pre-eminently
one that must have attention, or it will
lose its distinctive merits and degenerate
rapidly. 1t has pug nose which poorly
prepares it for roofing and finding a liy-
ing. If hog is desired that will pick up
its living in the woods and fields the year
round, the old razor-back hogs of the
South are far preferable to the improved
small Yorkshire swine. But for an ami
NAL that will produce excellent pork, such
rs the present pork-loving public demands,
the small Yorkshire cannot be outstripped.
If carefully attended to it will produce
pork that is nicely marked with streaks
of lean and fst-just the kind that
sells well in the market. The small
Yorkshire is not the swine for the
specialist-the man who raises pigs
by the quantity, but rather for the
farmer who raises few for home use and
the home market. It's pork is excellent,
and fancy prices can generally be obtained
for it. The lard that is made from this
breed is also excellent. and far superior to
most grades in the market. The small
Yorkshire does well on good clover in the
early months, and middlings, oatmeal and
scraps from the garden and house later in
the year When fattened with corn for 9
few weeks it is ready for the knife and
family use. The importance of having
pure breeds when only few swine are
kept is understood by all, and the small
Yorkshire is almost the ideal pig for the
farmer who wishes to have good pork
raised on his own farm, not 30 much for
market as for home use.

plank fence, house, barn or shed will
generally avert the evil. MANY of the trees
planted In exposed situations are killed or
injured by the winter winds and frost, or
at least by the late frosts of spring, when
the blossoms have already begun to burst.
This method of setting the peach trees in
sheltered and protected places 10 similar to
that adopted by English gardeners; that
is, by setting the trees close to and train
ing and fastening the branches TO the
south or southeast side of q brick
or stone wall. Where there is moth
ing else hut cold weather to pre-
vent . good peach crop some such
method of protection as this should be,
adopted, and four out of every five years Q
good crop will be gathered. Where the
yellows are prevalent the peach-growers
must not only look to the protection of
the trees from cold, but see to it that pre-
ventive measures are adopted to keep the
yellows away. The yellows are due partly
to atmospheric conditions, but more
largely to soil constituents and hygenic
treatment of the trees. There is hygiene
for fruit trees as well as for people, and
this must be studied closely to obtain the
best results. Good healthy trees on soil
with the proper constituents will gener-
ally get along without being attacked by
the yellows. Sometimes, however, the
yellows become so prevalent that artificial
methods to stop them are necessary, but so
far as possible the cause of the trouble
should be reached. This is in the soil, Gull
tivation and healthy growth of the trees.
