Census on Farms and Homes

WASHINGTON, July 29.-The count of
farm and homo transcripts made in &C.
cordance with the mortgage collection
clause of the census act has been COM
pleted by the census office. The figures
are subject to slight notifications.
There were returned by the eenumerators
2, 49l, 930 farms and homes occupied by
owners which are incumbered by mort
cages This number includes some
farms and homes about which the
enumerators made no report and which
belong partly to q class of hired and
partly to class of owned free as we'll as
partly to class of owned and in
numbered. Until this unknown quan-
tity, due to failure Of the enumerators,
is eliminated it may be regarded as ap-
proximately true that 2. $50, 900 families
of the IL. 100000 families of the United
States occupy and own unincumbered
hom and farm and that 1O,25O, 900
families occupy farms and homes that
are either hired or owned free.
The proportion of hired and owned free
homes and farms will be known when
the population division completes the
count of the returns pertaining to them.
Preliminary results indicate that the
average debt for the farm in Iowa is
1928, home $719; average for farm and
home $1.140. Ii these averages hold
good for the union, the incumbrance on
the farms and homes of theUnited States
is about So. 565, 10000 The success of
the investigation, Superintendent Por.
ter says, has been far beyond the antici-
pations of the most experienced statis-
ticians, and the result will be of i'm.
mense interest and value to the nation.
The volume relating to recorded in
debt. dness will probably go to press
this year. Incomplete returns from sew
eral western states indicate that farms
and homes are mortgaged for about one
third the value put upon them by the
owners.

BuTrzv1LLE, N. D., July a9.-About
O'Clock this morning fire was dis
covered in Johnson's blacksmith shop,
which was in close proximity to the
mammoth store and dwelling house of
William NJ. Jones. Heroic efforts on
the part Of the citizens of Buttzville to
save the store proved futile, and it, with
a large stock of goods, was entirely de-
stroyed. A portion of the household
goods were saved in damaged condi.
ton, bnt the contents of the store were
entirely destroyed, owing to a change of
wind. There was an insurance of 81. 600
on the contents of the store only. Mr..
Jones began rebuilding at noon. He has
the sympathy of the entire community.
Johnson will rebuild and improve on
the shop.

A Form of Petty swIndline.

MIR. a. Frank Richardson, thoroughly
practical and experienced newspaper man,
and probably the most successful advertis-
ing solicitor i'll the United States, in his adj
dress before the editorial convention last
week, called attention to the preva-
lence OF system of petty swindling, which
strikes directly and with tremendous effect
at the business interests of every newspaper
publisher in this country. He referred to
the universal practice OF local dealers, and
especially. of druggists in selling cheap
counterieits of standard and widely adj
vertised preparations. This dishonest prac-
tice obtains especially with respect to the
these preparations possess great merit, by
reason OF which and the vast sums OF
money expended by their manufacturers
in proclaiming their virtues, have become
immensely popular We may incidentally
mention, as an example, Hoods Sarsa-
parilla, whose proprietor expends upwards
Of million dollars every year in ad-
this country. Every local druggist and many
general dealers keep Hoods SarSaparila in
stock. AT the same time the dealer has an
other similar preparation, compounded by
himself or by some so-calicd 'non-secret
patent medicine" concern bearing similar
name, upon which he makes arger profit
and sells at lower price, and which he
equal if not superior, to the standard
article.
ltis most dishonest practice. 1t is not
only a positive fraud upon his customers,
and direct robbery of the manufacturers
whose enormous expenditure Of money in
advertising the genuine article mas caused
the demand which makes the sale of his
worthless imitation possible. But it works
all incalculable injury to every publisher
