Wheat az q National Export.
National stockman.


While the agricultural population de-
rives more or less of good from ali kinds
of farm products exported, the general
enjoyment of prosperity from this source
is not so great at any other time as when
we have plenty of wheat to send abroad
ut good prices. When wheat is wanted
by our foreign customers at remunera-
tive figures farmers OF every section are
going TO get share of the resultant
profit. That being the case, nearly every
agricultural nelghborhood should in the
ensuing year enjoy the BENEFITS of q good
foreign trade. Wheat has started abroad
in this cereal year IN unprecedented guam.
titles, and shipments are so heavy that
notwithstanding the immense yield and
the heavy thresher returns the visible sup
ply, contrary to what Is usual at this sea-
son. is hardly holding its own. Ordi-
narlly when new wheat comes on sale the
visible supply begins to steadily increase.
However, in this great wheat year the
slightly falling off. This indicates not
only that farmers are not disposed to rush
their grain on sale precipitately, but that
the grain forwarded is promptly disposed
of. The wheat markets huctuate more or
less, as is naturally to be expected under
existing conditions. Yet the general aver
age price just now is better than usual at
this season, with every indication that any
change from the present basis should be
in the direction of advance rather than de-
cline. Millions of American producers
are directly interested in this prospect.

Poet Riley Not . Dranatist.
Eugene Field.

The report that James Whitcomb Riley
has written libretto for which Sir Arthur
Sullivan Is TO compose the music is hardly
credible. Although natural actor of sur
prising ability, Mr.. Riley cares very little
for the dramatic, either in nature or in art.
He is essentially a Wrist and his powers
lie within certain distinct and narrow
limitations. The writer remembers
that on one occasion ne lnveigled
Riley into a Chicago theatre where
the McCaun Opera Company (then at
the height of its reputation and e1cellence)
was performing popular work. Riley
stood il about ten minutes and then made
his escape, pleading that he didn't care
much for dramatic shows--that he'd a
great deal rather visit q dime museum.
So dime museum was sought, and there
tor an hour or more the hoosier
poet amused himself watching the
crowd and throwing rings at
sticks. kind of gambling game
in vogue at rural fairs and county cattle
shows. II is not improbable that Sir
Arthur Sullivan would like TO secure the
Cooperative services OF an American COL
laborateur, for he is thrifty soul, and he
is by no means blind TO the fact that he
has a large constituency in this country
But there is no one here or elsewhere
capable OF taking up the pen where Will
lam 5. Gilbert laid il down, and he who
makes bold to do it Will surely suffer for
his temerity.

Buckwheat I'm Orchards.


Notwithstanding the fact that the sum-
mer has been cool and moist. many report
that blight has been severe on the apple.
We have received favorable reports of
buckwheat as a preventative. A farmer
having young orchard near his house
that had been given good culture. and
was in a tourishing condition up
to this spring, planted the end next
TO the house in garden truck
for family use. The end farthest away he
sowed in buckwheat. The same varieties
extended in both plats. The hardy sorts
blighted some IN the garden portion, and
the bad blighters were considerably dam
aged, while in the buckwheat portion
there was no blight on the hardy sorts,
and the varieties subject to blight were
affected scarcely at all. This shows
that the best of culture will not
always prevent blight, and that during
the time of its ravages. there should be
some soil covering to keep the ground
cool. Buchwhea stands first as crop for
this purpose, and clover second. This
has been determined by experiment by
Captain Speer, the former director of the
agricultural experiment station at Ames.
Any one can test the matter by the use Of
the thermometer in the different growing
fields

THE BLUE CANYON COAL VEIN.

sEDRo, Nov. e.--[speciai.l There Is being
some lively prospecting and development work
done upon the eastern extension OF the fsmors
Blue Canyon coal vein, near Lake Whatcom, by
the Occident Development Company, of Seattle.
The groupings OF the Blue Canyon vein begin at
the east shore of Lake Whatcom and course in

feet high, then descend the other side to the
edge Of the Nooksack valley, near the Seattle,

commissions had tilted up, unbroken, q solid
mass OF the strata OF the earth's crust, and
formed the mountain in which this great coal
vein lies saudwicbed, while subsequently the
elements have eroded and worn the surface of
the mountain smooth, covering 1t with surface
drift, and growing Ii with numerous small
canyons, down which dash small streams OF the
purest water. The Blue Canyon company owns
one mile along the groupings, beginning at the
lake, while the 0ccident Development Company
has leases on the greater part OF the balance,
and are taking the first step toward developing
them to their full capacity. They have now
thirty men at work, and one diamond drill, and
another diamond drill ordered which will be

OF getting heavy machinery through dense
woods on high mountains. by ordering high
speed engines and having the boilers made Of
coils OF pipe, which can DO disconnected and all

Is required, they simply add another boiler and

cabins along the line OF groupings, working
double shifts night and day, rain or shine.

viously filed timber claims on this valuable

In part as follows:
Your COMMITTEES have carefully examined the
proposed revision, chapter by chapter and sec
prudence and skill with which che general as
sembiy committee labored upon IL. We are OF
bility Of revising our Confession OF Faith with
out impairing in the least our system OF doc

that such revision would not hinder. bus ao-
vance and proser the formation of new snort

IL IL important 70 have a revision which shall
really revise. The great objects OF this wide
snd deep movement in the church should be as
these objects are two-foid:
First-A frank, explicit and undertaking
declaration OF the living faith in the church,
and of Gods loving and true offer Of salvation
to all men through Christ By His word and
spirit.
second-Clesring our Confession Of Faith from
the possibility of fatsiistic misinterpretation.
Hence, among other recommendations when
the changes made, that ali reference 20
sovereign preterition, eternal Generalization 70
everlasting death or any doctrine OF nom
election should be omitted.
The substitute for section7 10 to declare in
substance:
The doctrine Of Gods sovereign election IL TO
be received and interpreted in harmony with
the truth that He is not willing that any should
perish, but that all should come to repentance;
that He has given His SON q propitiation for
the sins OF the whole world, and that whosoeyer
cometh unto Him shall not be cast out, but who
soever will not come shall perish.

barbed wire and staples and wire nails.
These you must buy. Then, if there is
sawmill within reach. go there when they
are edging up lumber and they will give
you the Stats to save trouble of burning
them. Saw them up four or four and one
half feet long, and make panels fifteen or
eighteen feet long by mailing these Stats
to your wire with your staples,
say four inches apart. Put on three
of the stats as braces. using wire
nail. and clinching them. Let the
ends of your wires extend two feet beyond
last slat nailed on, and when you put the
panels up to posts, wrap these ends around
posts. This is easier to do than TO nail
them, and easier to take down. Cut
cypress or poplar posts. Sharpen ends
and plant rather firmly, to lit length of
panel. This fence can be moved from one
plot to one adjoining in about half an
hour, and will hold any kind of stock.
Braces put on as shown enable you to
hold the panel up. One man can carry it,
though two can handle it more easily.
