The importance Of early cutting OF grain
before it is fully ripe was we'll shown
few years ago by an experiment made 10
Illinois. OF the field Of fifty acres Of wheat
q part cut ten or fifteen days before full
maturity gave plump grain that weighed
GA 10 pounds to the bushel, while that
" hich stood until fully ripe weighed only
fifty,eigbt pounds to the bushel, shrink
sge in weight OF 7 2 per cent, to which
might be added . further shrinkase from
gram that ratified out in handling. This
is as applicable 10 other grain, including
field corn, or to any crop grown Tor seed,
as to wbest. Millers know that wheat cut
before 1t is quite ripe makes better -four
then when il stands longer, and other ex'
periments have indicated that it was bet
ter for seed purposes, terminating more
readily, and coming forward more rapidly.
As q general rule, tho best time for cut
ting all grain is when the seed is duly
formed aud has eIszsd over, but is yet so
tender as to be CT ushed between finger and
thumb.

SPECULATION IN GRAIN.

Unfortunate "Deacon'' White is being savagely scared for his attempt to corner corn, and he is told on all sides that he doesn't deserve any sympathy and wont get any. And in connection with the tirades against him all speculation in breadstuffs is Gercely denounced. This nonsense has to go the rounds periodically, but it is nonsense just the same. We have not seen the truth about speculation in grain better stated than it is by the Provi- dence Journal, which points out that what speculation does is to equalize prices the world over and minimize fluctuations, re- suits which are obvious advantages. It furnishes ready market to the farmer, enabling him to sell his products with greater ease and profit; it gives shippers and consignees an oppor- tunity to insure themselves against changes in price during long shipments by buying or selling futures against stocks in transit, and of course such safeguards and econo- mics inure in the end to the advantage of the consumer. The notion that speculators are continually making the producers ac- cept less and consumers pay more than demand and supply warrant is almost wholly wrong. To do that the spectators would have to be in possession of special information, whereas the chief tendency of the present system of trading is toward the collection and dissemination of more complete intelligence regarding the factors that make prices.
 Attempts to corner food products gene rally result in the 'busting" of those who make the attempts. These attempts are only incidents of speculation which is on the whole a benefit to all concerned

casionally as funny as they are in this country. Here are two or three answers which an English bishop vouches for. A child was asked to give some account of Oliver Cromwell, and volunteered the in- formation that the Protector "was very unhappy, and dreaded assassination. On his deathbed he cried, eff had served my God as served my King, should not be thus forsaken in my old agel" Another, evidently with temperance proclivities, de- fined syntax as ''a dooty upon spirits" One smart youth. who was asked by an ex- aminer, "Could your father walk around the worldg' was equal to the occasion. "No, sir," said he. "Why nots "Be- cause he's dead"
 The decision of Judge OBrien of the supreme court of New York in the Schuyler monument case is interesting as showing that it is possible for the personal friends of deceased person to interfere to prevent the erection of 8 monument to such deceased person by outside parties. In this case an injunction was sought against the Women's Memorial Fund asso- citation of New York to restrain it's mem- bers from collecting funds to erect pub lie monument to Mrs Mary Hamilton Schuyler as typical philanthropist. Her family and intimate friends disliked the idea, and, as entreaties did not avail to stop the undertaking, they sought relief in the courts, where decision has just been rendered forbidding the collection of funds for the project.

THE APPRENTICE SYSTEM.

THE APPRENTICE SYSTEM.
 The apprentice system as conducted by the trades unions has not been satisfactory, except, perhaps, to the unions, and the trade schools have of course not pleased the unions. It has been claimed that these schools are turning out large num- Der of imperfect mechanics, and workers in various other trades, which threatens to lower the standard of manual labor. We do not know what foundation there is to this claim, but there is probably some. The trouble over the trade schools in Bos- ton has been settled, for awhile at least, by a very interesting compromise. The Brick layers union in Boston has wisely con- cluded to yield something of it's former position by agreeing with the Mason Build ers' association, that trade schools shall be established, under labor auspices, and opened for evening instruction. The agree ment goes on to say that "all regular in dentured apprentices are to be given in struction therein. None but regular ap- prentices shall be allowed to enter these SCHOOLS. All pupils snail De gwen 1nstruc tion in the theory and science of the trade they wish to learn.''
 This is reported as the first instance in history of the labor movement in the New England states where trade union and an organization of employers have come to an agreement on this question. The hostility of the trades associations to the old plan whereby apprentices were allowed to learn the various trades, has contributed in no small degree to the establishment of the usual trades schools. The unions will not gain anything by fighting them now.
