A Serious Matter.

The late "Sunset" Cox, who so long
represented one of the New York City
district in congress, was IN inveterate
jester. A matter-of-fact friend once
wrote Cox a long letter, the burden of
which was that lie should quit Joking.
"Eiith your weagon to a star, and be
serious" wrote the would-be mentor.
Cox replied: II might hitch my wagon
to the dog star, and that would be
Sirius, wouldn't it?" That must have
been an August jest, for these are the
days when the dog-star RACES, and it
was a good enough joke for warm
weather. But it IS really serious mat
ter, if you are obliged to travel in hot
weather, to select a line on which you
can journey in comfort. Such one is
"The Burlington" which follows the
east bank of the Mississippi for three
hundred miles, under the shadow of
lofty tree-crowned bluffs on one side
and the sparkling waters of the river,
famed by cool brcezes, on the other.

How Dogs Are stolen in Paris.


Dog stealers in Paris have two prin-
cipal means Of getting hold of the ami
NAL they want. First Of all they find
out the dogs habits, the liberty he is al:
lowed, the hours that he takes an airing
either alone or with servant, and make
their arrangements accordingly. They
sometimes prowl around house for ..
week before obtaining all the informas
ton they need When they learn where
they can meet the animal, they attract
him by some sort of bait. or make him
follow bitch, which they lead with a
string.
In a narrow street it is easy to approach;
the dog and pat him. II he is not very
savage, the offer Of something to eat rem
ders him confiding; the thief, who has 1
s'pnoose ready, passes it around tha
''-ss's neck, and the game is bagged. On
the boulevards and in the public parks.
where dogs usually follow their masters
or mistresses without being held by q
cord, the thieves always use second
animal, and as soon as the dog comes
near enough to the decoy brute the lasso
is thrown and the gallant captured

How's This Olson?

When Sanborn played the return
game of ball at Cooperstown two weeks
ago, Dave Mills went to bat and pitcher
Moe pitched an in-shoot ball that struck
Mills on the hand. Umpire Olson of
Dazey, refused to give the batter his
base or call it dead ball but called it a
strike. Below we print letter that
may convince him different:
CooPERsTowN, July I'd, 1891.
A. G. SPAULD1NG, Chicago.
Dear Sir-Please answer the
following questions: "If a batter liz
making the first or second strike,
strikes ut an in-shoot ball and the ball
hits the batter's band while striking is
the batter entitled to base for being hit
and what is the ball?"
Respt.
w. D. MARSH.
Answer: Yes. The batter is enti-
tied to his base for being hit and the
ball is dead. u

FRosT-sMUDGEs.

All over the state, the papers are
advocating preparation for smudges
to be used in case of threatened
frost. The ridicule to which the
idea was subjected when it was first
broached has all been dropped, and
the scientific principle involved
that thin stratum of smoke floating
over the field is all sufficient to save
the crop from the light early frost
is now almost universally admitted.
There are individuals who always
see lions in their path, however, and
scarcity of burnable matter has been
talked Of. But any one can take his
mower into the centre of his quarter
section and cut down little wheat
if he cannot do better. The loss in
volved would be only a bushel or
two of grain. It looks as though
the settler who is too stubborn or
too lazy to try the suggested remedy
ought not to have much sympathy
if frost should nip his crop. A few
hours labor to get the smudges
ready and few hours less sleep on
the dangerous nights, are not a very
high price to pay for safety from
frostbite. John Maher, OF Devils
Lake write that in 1888 he tried the
effect Of smoke and saved his crop
three-quarters of a mile distant from
the smudge just as effectually as that
close beside the fire.-Park River

The Hon, Lyman r. Casey, our
United States Senator,and resident
Of jamestown, writes to the Ameri
can Economist, of New York, why
heis pro:ectionist in4he following
strain:
Because protection steadily en-
larges the home market for farm
products.
England buys the worlds surplus
wheat. She demands ga big leaf for
twopence." Accordingly, she gluts
her markets from every source and
usually is able to dictate improbable
prices for American grain.
When our exportable surplus is
large, prices are rarely good; when
small, always; SO that, strangely, a
deficient yield is sometimes good
luck for the farmer.
Well paid wage earners are gene
rous consumers.
Protection alone insures American
labor against European pauper wa
ges.
When, under protection American
industries shall employ bread-eaters
sufficient to nearly consume Ameri-
can cereals, then the farmer who will
no longer sell his grain at cost O
production or less. He will escape
the competition of the ryot and the
serf. His industry will be profita-
ble-his calling honored and truly
independent.

advanced price. One argues that the
first price has been the best of the sea-
son s years III 10 and therefore it is es-
tablished that the best time to sell is
just as early as possible, others hold
that wheat 1850 controlled by specula-
tors that oven now tho p;ice is held
considerably below its actual value and
that the producers by holding their
products in their own hands may wrest
from the spectators the power to con.
troll the price, and although Ihsve not
seen one of the alliance circulars be-
lieve this is the view of the matter ta-
ken by that organization in advising
farmers to hold on. There is undoub-
tedly degrees good judgment and
practical common serse in each of these
views, but neither of them can hold
good under all circumstances and we
must remember that the conditions of
this year are very different from those
of any of the past ten yeays, and that
after all the one great law which over
|
rules all others in the making of prices
is that of supply and demand. 1t seems
to ME the important question is where
is<tha supplies to meet the demands of
present year? India and Russia, two of
the greatest wheat producing countries
of the world are without enough to sup
fply home demand and are already fcel
ling the pinch of famine. Leaving
Russia to take care of herself (Which it
is doubtful whether she can do) the
rest of Europe after she has gathered in
all Tie surplus of the world will be
many million bushels short of the
amount needed to supply hor with
bread. The crops of America while
they must fall far below many of the
estimates which have been Made, are
abundant, and she will bo for this year
at least the grainary OF the world. We
shall have many millions to sell, but
when it is all sold, Europe will still
stretch out her hands for more. Our
conclusion is that with the worlds sup
ply SO much sho1t of actual need the
price must inevitably advance.
