 Had the prohibition not existed we would have exported to Germany in ten years about as much pork as dr. Blaine claims we shall hereafter export to her each year.
 It will be noticed that Mir. Blaine TOT got to say anything about the German tariff on our pork. The reason why ne did not is because Germany still imposes n high duty which will keep out our pork about as well as the prohibition or it has done. In effect there is no differ. ence whether the prohibition IS effected directly or indirectly by high duties.
 But what becomes of Mir Bla ne's as- serton that the removal by Germany or it's prohibition law, was a triumph or reciprocity, when President Harrison declares through his private secretary, "The removal of the pork restriction has nothing to do with any question of reciprocity, but is based upon the ac- ceptance by the German government or the inspection of meats by this govern ment under the law of the last Congress

rar,g Prices for Farmers to Consider.

A bushel of wheat in 1855 would buy twenty-one and one half yards of heavy brown scetng and shirting. To-day it will buy tweve and one half yards of the same uality of cloth Has the farmer profited by protection?
 
 In 1855 bushel of wheat would buy eighteen and three < uarters yards of good calico. To-day it will buy fifteen and one half yards of calico of the same grade. How much has the farmer prof ited by "protection?"
 Thirty-one years ago the farmer ex- changed his wool for cloth, and had a home factory. To-day he exchanges more wool for the same quantity of cioth-but how about the cloth?
 
 Thirty-fve years ago bushel of wheat would pay taxes on s200 In 1891 1t lakes three bushels and a half of wheat to pay taxes on S290. Then one bushel pa d taxes on ten acres of craze land; now one bushel pays on but ttle over two acres What does the farmer think of this method of "progressing?" Rockville (Ind Tribune.
