The new agriculture is to be based
largely upon common sense, the out
come of some bitter experiences of
late years. Among the things that
we have learned are, not to keep
more live stock than we can keep
well. The effort to maintain one
head more than this may destroy
the profit of all and not to store
perishable produce for rise when
we are offered a fair price for it.
Rats and mice can soon counterbal.
ance the gain, even if it comes, and
then. again, the rise may not come.
Another item is that stock is mature
whenever it will sell at the top of
the market. After that point is
reached you may easily make gain
in weight at loss of profit. Quick
sales is as good an axiom for the
farmer as for the merchant.

Did you ever stop to question the
difference in the profit of the man
who raises 100 bushels of wheat on
ten acres of land and his neighbor
who grows the same amount upon
three acres? The income is the
same, but how about the cost per
bushel? and, by the way, how many
farmers can tell what it costs them
to grow bushel of wheat; but to
go back to the two neighbors. Not
only is there difference in their
money profit, but a wide differ
ence as well in the content at salts
faction that they find in the bust
ness. One of them says, farming
does not pay" Which one is it?

The small farmer eYerYMh,

The small farmer everywhere is
generally doing better than the
large farmer. That this is true
may easily be proven by inquiring
into the relative prosperity of the
40-acre farmer and the 100-acre
farmer in your own neighborhood.
Which is burdened With the least
debt, in proportion to the total val>
ue of his land? Which is procur-
ing the best profit upon his capital
and the largest money yield per
acre? and which gets the most sat-

to land, and have acquired more

In no branch Of our agriculture
is there wider divergence between
that which might be accomplished
and that which actually is accom-
plished. For instance the average
milk production of our COWS is about
5000 pounds, and of butter 125
pounds; yet it has been shown that
it is possible to procure nearly 3d.
900 pounds of milk from one COW in
a year, and from another more than
100 pounds of butter. There is
too wide difference here, and our
new agriculture will work toward
closing the gap by bringing up the
average-not By lowering the ex-
ceptional-prouuction.

The exports OF specie from the port of
New York, Tor the week ending MAY 8,
amounted to 81 ,492 900, Of which 81 ,239,- :
900 was in gold and 1904, 900 in silver.
The imports Of specie during the week
amounted to $1,000 The World says
The shipments Of gold last week have
rarely been exceeded within like period
and they gave to the bears long-coyeted
opportunity to turn things their way. As
matter of fact, ii was not so much the
amount exported that sent chill through
Wall street as the mystery surrounding
the movement and the indefniteness as
to the causes which have led up to At.
Since the close Of March the exports OF
gold and silver approximate 5000, 900,
and many bankers are OF opinion that
the shipments are forced; in other words
that the foreigners suffer loss in order
TO get gold, and that the whole thing re-
solves itself into an exchange operation.
The apprehension felt as 10 the present
loss OF gold, however, is, TO some extent,
sentimental, as the Director OF the Mint
shows we have produced $572, ,92O, 600 Of
gold in the last sixteen years, and in that
time our net imports were $93, ,466 900.
although from May, 1888, to July, 1889,
the export reached over s81 400, 600. He
places our stock Of gold on the first OF
this month at 100000. 1t is argued
from all these facts that the excitement
and depression consequent upon the gold
exports is hardly warranted and specu-
Iators are responsible for the trouble.

The Phenix Republican feels bad; in
fact it feels very bad. The cause OF its
so eness OF heart is found in a little act
of the Sixteenth legislative assembly.
called by the aforesaid Phenix RepubIi-
car the County Expense BILL" Now,
why this little act should disagree with
the usually good digestive organs Of the
Republican editor is beyond our ken.
The working oil the new law in this
corinty is just what the trainers of the
act intended it should be, the cutting
down OF the county expense at least
twenty-five per cent. The Republican
knows, il il knows anything, that in re-
ality the warrants issued over the four
per cent limit are, or eopld be declared,
void, as Boards OF Supervisors have no
right, under the Harrison Act, to contract
any debt over that limit. Now, it is a
well-known fact that no county in Ari-
zorla enjoys a smaller debt than five or
six per cent of the taxable property in
side its boundaries and therefore some
provision had to be made to meet the
current expense. In Mohave county
the new law works well and in our esti-
nation fills the bill to the e.tire st,isfac-
ton OF our people.

The difference between a girls throw
ing and boys, is substantially this
The boy crooks his elbow and reaches
back with the upper part Of his arm about
at right angles with his body and the
forearm at As degrees. The direct act of
throwing is accomplished by bringing the
arm back with sort OF snap, working
every joint from shoulder to wrist. The
girl throws with her whole arm rigid, the
boy with his whole arm relaxed. Why
this marked and unmistakable difference
exists may be explained by the fact that
the clayicle or collar-bone in the female
anatomy is some inches longer and set
some degrees lower down than in the
masculine frame. The long, crooked,
awkward bone interferes with the full
and free use of the arm. This is the
reason why girl cannot throw a stone

CHARLESTON, w. VA, December a.
News was received in this city to-day
of a terrible fight to the finish which
occurred last Saturday between a man
and bear at the lumber camp OF Stet-
son & Co., OH Durbin creek, Lincoln
county.
Arnold Moore was cook at the shanty
where the workmen boarded and for
some time had noticed pilfering in the
pantry, but supposed the dogs were do
ing the mischief. Saturday evening he
returned to the camp after an absence
of some hours and was met at the
threshold by huge black bear.
There was no time to parley or dis
pute for possession nor even for
choice Of weapons. The fight began
at once, and in earnest. Moore had
nothing for defence but long keen
bladed clasp knife, which he opened
and began what proved to be desper-
ate fight.
II lasted over half an hour. First
the man aud then the bear
was on top. After fearful
struggle in which Moore was
literally torn from head to foot he
pierced the heart of the ugly brute with
his knife and the monster fell dead at
his feet
Moore was bloody and mangled. One
finger was gone and one ear missing,
and wounds and scratches were on all
parts of his body. The bear weighed 400
pounds when dressed, and had over fifty
knife thrusts in his body.

A BAD SPLIT.

The Coke Workers of Scottdale are to
Form New and Independent Organi-
zatiOn.
PITTsBURG, PA, December 3.-The
announcement from Scottdale OF the
formation OF a new coke workers or
ganizatiOn created more than ordinary
interest in Pittsburg labor circles. The
latest move Of the strikers is considered
significant, inasmuch as 1t will conflict
with the United Mine Workers, which
for years has had the controlling power
of that district.
As outlined in a telegram from Scott
dale, the new organization is to be
known as the Federated Brotherhood
OF Coke Workers OF America, and will
have at its head Robert d. Kerfoot, ex-
Master Workman Of the Connellsville
region.
1t is generally believed that the
diSgruntled members Of the United
Mine Workers are seeking revenge.
The disastrous result OF the recent
strike caused thousands OF coke workers
to lapse in their dues to the United
Mine Workers, and there has since
been q general feeling Of discomfort.
Among labor leaders the opinion pre-
walls that the new organization will di-
vide the 10000 cokers, and lively times
will follow.
