FROM THE MERCHANT
The Operation of the New Tariff Law
Some Interesting Figures.


Recently opinions were gathered from
New York merchants, both great and
small, Republican and Democratic alike,
in regard to the effect of the new tariff
law on prices. These opinions showed
that the prices of about 80 per cent. of
the articles in commOnest use had either
declined or remained stationary in price
in the first year of the Mckinley bill, ,
while actual statistics proved that in
stead of putting Chinese wall around
the country and strangling commerce.
the new tariff law had actually increased
free imports in seven months ending
August | $50 ,0l6,1 and increased ex-
ports $50, ,397, ,lSS
The operotion of the Mckinley bill
can be illustrated by the following facts
1t has
Increased the duties on about...........15 articles
Reduced the duties about ......199 articles
And left it unchanged articles
Increased our foreign commeece Tin
Increased our free imports ll2oi3,Gsl
Made the per ceutage of tree imports

Increased free imports over the last
tariff, per cent. % is

Reduced the total revenue c.tartf
taxes in II month. 41,396.425
increased the cost OF no necessity OF life and re-
duced the cost of many: stimulated business
and thereby tended to make people buster and
earnings surer. II not larger.
The figures here given for foreign
commerce and free imports are for
eleven months ending September /, the
latest at hand, and the percentages of
free imports, which are now larger than
ever before in the history of our gov
ernment, are for six months, beginning
April !, when sugar became free.
Such is the early fruit of genuine
''tarif reform" by the Republican party.

bill has affected prices. Blessings on

An Easy Way Of Poisoning Rodents With
out Danger to Positry.
As rats destroy large numbers Of
young chicks. and are difficult to catch
IN traps, or to poison them without at
the same time injuring or poisoning
the chicks, the illustration shows a
cheap and easy mode of poisoning rats
without danger to the cats, fowls or
chicks. Make box two feet long, one
foot wide and one foot high Tor use a
soap box If necessary, and have top
to 1t that can be raised up At each
end, about four inches from the floor,
cut hole ~ inches in diameter.
Never raise the top unless to put in
the feed or to take out dead rat
Place some corn meal in a pan and
leave it in the box. In the illustration
the holes are shown at A A, the top at
B, and the pan of feed at G.
AS the rat will feel safe and secure
from the cat, and will prefer the two
holes, so as to have better opportu-
mites for escape, it will soon find out
the box, and will also soon learn to eat
the meal. Once the rat tastes the
meal Tor other food and finds it to be
wholesome, or free from poison, it will
come every night for the meal and
bring other rats. Do not poison them
at first, but wait until they have toasted

I sRorCcr THE etos.


When only the scrub hog was bred
upon our farms we did not give the
care that the improved pig must have,
becausel he did not seem to require it.
Nor did he, because he had a thick
hide and over this heavy coat of hair.
But, in carrying on our Improvements,
re have thinned the hide and in some
cases almost entirely bred the hair off,
breeding in fat instead. When we add
to these changes the artificial habits
under which we keep our breeding
stock-artiticial as compared to the
habits of the swine Of forty years ago
it will be wise to consider the young
pigs-the product of this artificial
state-7as requiring special care and
protection from the time they are far
rowed till they are pretty well grown.
1t is an error to suppose that sum
mer rain is not harmful to pigs. Many
farmers acting under this error permit
their weanlings to nest in the fence
corners upon the bare earth-very wet
earth after a rainstorm. No matter
what season of the year this is in, even
midsummer, pigs will pile upon each
other under such circumstances, get
overheated, take cold, cough, and
wheeze as though it were December OF
March. This irritation of the air pas
sages being commenced during the
summer and fall, paves the way for a
continued irritation of the air passages
during the winter. barring out all hopes
of thrift. The summer and fall seasons
are especially well calculated for build
ing the system up to meet the trials Of
the cold season close at hand; but neg
lect of the kind pointed out bars all
chance for hardness and healthy
growth. The weanling that contract.

for the feed and nursing he will re
quire during the winter.
In addition to trouble in the breath

as the more recent descendant of tn

do we meet with lung trouble an
rheumatic pains as stated, but infam

exposure in summer. Especially
this true when pigs are permitted t
sleep upon a manure pile. Ammoni

irritating to the eyes. Its power ma
be better understood when we conside
its effects upon the glass windows O

accumulated. The writer remember

Chinese Hands and Finger Nails.

Chinese, when meeting, bow, their
arms to their sides; then folding each
his own hands, raise them in front OF
the face and shake them gently at one

foreign residents in the far east; for
Chinese hands are all fiabby and fish
like, and most of them dirty. Besides,
