ArraiEnment OF AoKInieyisEn ny One
Who KnOws.
When anyone who is not engaged in
manufacturing criticises our high tariff
policy the McKinleyites brush aside his
objections with contempt What does
he know about manufacturing?' they
ask He is not in practical business;
he talks like a college professor. His
opinion does not count
But when a manufacturer himself ar
raigns our absurd tariff laws his opinion
counts. Such a manufacturer is Arthur
J. Lyman, of the Lowell Manufacturing
Co of Boston, Mass, who is one of the
foremost carpet manufacturers in the
country and is the very highest author
ity on all questions pertaining to car
pets and the carpet trade.
Mr.. Lyman has recently stated the
case of the carpet manufacturers
against the tariff as follows: Sub
stantially all of the wool used in max
ing carpets comes from abroad and
chiefly from Russia, Asia Minor, Persia
India and South America These woods
are chiefly long, coarse woods, and be-
| ing raised under favorable natural con-
ditions, and by people whose modes OF
| life are very inexpensive, they are OF
very low cost The necessity for rev
enue from any and every source during
the civil war after q time caused a con-
/ siderable duty to be placed on carpet
woods, avowedly for revenue. When
the war was over and the debt had been
! greatly reduced, and many taxes were
/ taken OF, this heavy tax on car
pet woods was unfortunately left II
| had not caused the raising of carpet
woods IN this country, because other
woods and other products could be
raised to much greater advantage, and
because the conditions existing here
/ were not favorable.
The tax on this admirable material
considerably increased the cost OF the

an Iowa republican paper started the
report that Norton Brothers, of Chicago,
were furnishing two-POund tin cans at

year. State Senator J. M GObble, who
is a merchant in Muscatine, saw this
statement and has let in some uitiless
light upon it. He bought from the
same firm One-pound baking powder
cans in May, 1890, at SIS per thousand,
and has to pay now $50. Last August
he bought No. 90 coffee cans at one
dollar each, and on February "a, 1891,
he had to pay SL15. Calling the atten-
ton of the firm to the difference, he
got this answer:

HOW TO FEED FOR RICH MILK.

There can be no question among prac.
tical dairymen, however much scientific
men may doubt it, that rich food will
produce rich milk-that is, food rioh in
fat will add to the fat in the milk. The
common practice among tho best dairy
men is to feed the COWS fully with such
food as is given under ordinary circum-
stances, and then either change part
of it or add to it some other kind which
contains large quantity of fat. Thus,
a cow fed On clover hay, with as much
cornmeal as she will cat, may have two
quarts of the meal changed for two
quarts of fcottonsced meal, which contains
nearly three times as much fat as the
cornmeal. This change of food will al
most always result in the production Of
moro butter without increasing the
milk-that is, the milk is richer in fat.
A cow that is fed on hay and bran will
increase in butter if the bran is displaced
by cornmeal.-Mew York Times.

LEARNING TO WALK.

During the winter after the rush of
the work is over is a good time to break
the colts. Get them accustomed to
light work in the winter so that if need
be they can be used to some extent dur
ing the more pressing work in the spring.
One item is of great Importance in break
ing the colts, and that is to train them
to walk well. A larger part of the farm
work is done in walk and it will make
considerable difference in the amount of
work done whether the team are good
walkers or not. One item in doing this
is to only work them with horses that are
good walkers. One of the best plans of
managing colt is to commence walking
it with good gated but steady
going horse that will take whatever load
they arc hitohed to without difficulty. II,
however, he is slow, the colt will soon
learn tho same gait, and little care in
this respect at the start will make a con-
siderable difference in short time. Be
sure at first that the horse used in break
ing the colt is naturally good walker
and then sec that the colt is we'll broken
beside him and an important point will
have been gained. Chicago Times.

PRUNING TREES IN WINTER,

Notwithstanding many sag that winter
pruning Of trees is injurious, l contend
that it is not. If done when the wood
is not frozen, and the wounds (any over
one fourth of an inch in diameter) be
cerhentcd over or even coatod with
,boiled linsecd oil, there is no danger Of
black spots or tho fat headed borer TAX

the Wounds can be done month after

ing this fall. There is another advan.
hge in pruning now, where the rabbits
are plenty, as the green brush will give
them something to bark, instead of their
attacking young trees, much to their IN
jury oft times. If young trees are prop
ely trained from their infancy there
need be no other tool needed than a
good pocket knife. The pruning of
trees iu June, as some recommend, / de-
mur most emphatically, as from all nv
experience, where it becomes necessary
from the effects of storms, the result was
Injurious. 1t stands to reason that when

cannot be otherwise than injurious.

should be cut squarely off. In some cases
the head is scalded and dressed and sent
to market, but in most cases is over
looked and left at home. The legs should
be cut OIL at the knee joint. The cntrails
should be removed, excepting the kid
neys. The liver, lights and heart should
be taken out. Cut the carcass open from
the neck through the entire LENGTH, from
head to crotch. If this is done they are
uot SO apt to sour and spoil during hot
weather. Do not wash the carcass out
with water, but with dry cloth. Do not
ship until the animal heat is entirely out

Tho Future Of the Toad.

1t is difficult to see at first what is the
relation that exists between toads and
railroads. Many persons, however, in
sist that such a relation does exist and
that it is very intimate one indeed, as
they accuse the railroads of destroying
the toads. A man who is not very fond
OF toads might think that there are
already too many of them, although arri-
culturists do not look at it in the same
light. The toad is great eater of
harmful insects, and it seems that in
many localities the toads are disappear
ing.
When the young toad is able to Jump,
its principal amusement is to wander
around in cool places. Now, it often
happens that after shower it goes to the
nearest railroad climbs up the bank and
manages to reach the top rail, from
which it generally falls off on the op-
and tries to jump over the opposite rail,
but, being too small it cannot jump high
enough, and, in spite of its efforts, is
imprisoned indefinitely between the two
rails. 1t hops along the road, but finally,
deprived of food and exhausted by its
"houSecSoiui euOItS, IL NlcS. kD engineer,
walking along a track not long ago,
counted 300 emaciated bodies of toads in
space of ten meters. A story is related
OF an immense number of toads that fairly
blocked railroad for several kilometers.
the number being so great that the train
could make no progress.
These observations, though interesting.
need to be generalizcd before one can
admit that railroads are really cause of
the determination of the race of toads.
In any case, we may be sure that, in
spite of the usefulness of toads, they will
exert no influence over the further de-
velopment of railroads. - Nep York.

HOW TO COOK RICE.

Rice is becoming much more popu-
lar article of food than heretofore. 1t is
frequently substituted for potatoes at
the chief meal of the day, being much
more nutritious and much more readily
digested. At its present cost it is rela-
lively cheaper than potatoes, oatmeal or
grain-grits of any kind. In preparing
it only just enough cold water should be
poured on to prevent the rice from burn
ing at the bottom of the pot, which
should have close-fitting cover, and
with moderate fire the rice is steamed
rather than boiled until nearly done;
then the cover is taken off, the surplus
steam aud moisture allowed to escape,
and the rice turns out a mass of snow
white kernels, each separate from tho
other, and as much superior to the usual
soggy mass as fine mealy potato is
superior to the water-soaked article
