The London Newspapers Appreciate tho
Effects Of tho Mckinley BIll-It Has Hurt
British Exports.
/ LONDON, Aug. 1o.-The 81. James Gazette
takes q. very gloomy view Of the con-
dition OF British trade, and to-day there
appears in its columns an article com
menting in u pessimatic manner upon
the outlook for the manufacturing and
other industrial Of Great Britain. 1t
says; "Judglng from the returns
issued by the Board Of Trade it looks as
though we have already reached the
end Of good times. Tho great decline
in tho exports from Great Britain is
undoubtedly dps.to the operation Of the
Mckinley law in the United States.
We have been told that the act would
eventually prove real misfortune to
tho United States, but its immediate
object was to hit foreign manufacturers,
especially those Of Great Britain, and it
is plainly evident that this object has
been attained"

elf at first you do not succeed,
try, try again" This is maxim we
were taught in our infancy and we
believe in carrying it out yet. Dur
ing the past few weeks we have been
pounding it into the farmers of this
county the advisability of plowing
fire-breaks around their premises to
protect their property against
prairie fires. but a large majority of
them do not think it at all necessary
to do so. and the next thing we shall
hear will be heavy losses by prairie
fires. Farmers, take time by the
forelock and plow fire breaks.
Only last Sunday one of our farmers
nearly lost his all from prairie fire,
and it was only by hard work that
the crop and possibly buildings were
saved. The grass is somewhat green
yet, but It was demonstrated that it
would burn and burn rapidly. Once
more: "a word to the wise is sufi-
cient."

unfaworably with the time when the
exports were abnormally large"
The St. James Gazette is even
more outspoken. 1t says: "Judg-
ing from the returns issued by the
Board of Trade it looks as though,
we have aIesdy reached the end Of
good times. The great decline in
the expests from Great Britain is ua-
doubtedly due to the operation of
the Mckinley Law in the United
States We have been told that
that act would eventually prove a
real misfortune to the United States
but Its immediate object was to hit
foreign manufactures, especially
those of Great Britain, and it is
plainly evident that this object has
been obtained" All of which shows
that the law is working exactly as its
authors intended. Republican pro-
tectionists believe that American
markets belong to Americans. Dem
ocratic free-traders believe, practi-
cally if not Theoretically, that this
country should be the dumping
ground of the products of foreign
pauper labor. If the exports of
England to this country are falling
off, their place is being supplied by
American goods. And if man is
a genuine American this is just what
will please him. We are getting far
more truth just now from English
free-traders than from their Ameri-
can allies.

A correspondents in the Fargo. Re-
publican says the following about
smudging grain:
1t is a lamentable fact that the
smudging of grain has been Cin my
opinion) generally misunderstood.
In conversation with many farmers,
l find that they have delayed their
smudges until midnight, and in many
cases until or 3 o'clock in the
morning. The object of the smudge
is not to effect the tempature by heat
as much as it is to create a cloud of
smoke. 1t is smoke that is need
ed, and hence the more smoke, the
better. 1t is very evident that frost
is nothing but frozen dew, and it is
also evident that on a still night dew
begins to fall just about sunset, and
consequently the smudge ought to
begin before the dew falls and be
kept up all night, or until the condi-
ton changes that is favorable
to frost, which would be windy, or
cloudy. Then when the temperature
is reached to convert dew into frost,
you will readily see that there would
be no dew to freeze, and hence no
frost. There is no frost without dew
and there would be no dew it you
begin in time to create the artificial
cloud; but if you wait till after mid,
night to light your smudge, the dew
is already on the grain, and then it
will freeze in snite of the smudpe.
