FARM ANIMALS.
Quantity and Quality of California Stock Com
pared With Last Year.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-Secretary Rusk
has sent out his annual report on the num-
ber and values of farm animals In the
United States. OF California he says the
aggregate number of horses is slightly
above that Of January l, 1891. while their
quality has been greatly improved during
the past ten years by the introduction of
better breeds. Prices at present are de-
pressed owing to the surply being greater
than the demand. A great deal Of work
heretofore performed by horses is now
done by railroads and machinery, which Is
no doubt another cause of this depression
Mules are about the same as to number as
last year, and the demand is somewhat
better than for horses, as is also the price.
While milch cows remain about the same as
last year, oxen and other cattle have mate
rally decreased and prices are lower. The
number Of sheep is also less, but prices
have been higher. Hogs have not dimin-
ished and the supply is about equal to the
demand.

This was probably the news concerning the
cholera, and it Is fair example of the state
In which the foreign newspapers come into
Russia. No reports concerning the cholera
which are not approved by the Government
are allowed to be read here. Every paper is
carefully examined and anything which the
censors do not like is stamped out This Is
so with all newspapers, and such magazines
and books as are admitted often have pages
torn from them, and there is no such thing
as free press in Russia. The papers here
receive instructions from the Government
as to just what they shall publish.
Warnings That Mean Business.
IF they do not follow out these instruc-
tions they receive first a warning. II they
offend again this warning is repeated, and
at the third offense the paper is suspended.
Three such warnings always result in the
abolition of the newspaper. The warnings
may be years apart and they may be caused
by the mistakes of cheap reporters or care
less proof readers, but the paper loses its
standing and at the third warning its ex-
istence. Its editor is also liable to i'm
prisonment, and the result is that there is
no such thing as free thought in Russia.
The most ridiculous things are prohibited
from publication, and nothing concerning
the Gar is ever published. During large
part of the time have been in Russia the
Gar has been visiting in Denmark. He
met the German Emperor there and
the European papers have been full of
gossip concerning him. Every line of this
has been blacked out, whether it came from
the London Times or in the way of witty
remarks from the Fliege1ds Bldtter, and a
large part of the famine news has been
handled in this same way. 1 have before
me list of subjects which were banded
over to the press during single year some
time ago, but they will hold equally well

Loaf OF bread eaten along the Volga is as

systems are already run down by the famine

They know nothing of the use of medicines

impossible TO keep the cholera from spread

The man who first gets the disease probably
belongs to large family. This family in

side by side on one bed, which is usually
the top of the stove, or lie sprawled out
close together upon tie floor. They wear
the same clothes day and night, and if there
are cholera germs in auy one of the gar
ments of family these are bound to be
communicated to the others If the cholera
is slow in manifesting itself, the patient
may move around about the other people of
the village. The work of the village is
done in gangs. and one man must come in
contact with all the others. The result is
that the disease must spread, and the only

Died with Her Work Beside Her.
The natural condition of these people is
bad beyond description, and l was shown
to-day a reminescence of the cholera in the
shape OF a Photograph of the interior of a

was the halI-tu shed cloth that the woman
had been weaving when she was taken sick,

One OF the most offensive smells along
the Volga is that of putrid fish. Nearly
every other wharf has great crates of this
packed away, and you see peasants walking
about the streets peddling dried fish, which
they have upon strings and which they
carry about swung over their shoulders
han which is at the mouth of the Volga
and in which is one of the greatest fish
markets OF the world. 1t is here that the
greater part of the caviare OF the world is

sturgeon, and millions of dollars worth of
1t are shipped from this point every year.
Millions more are made in the dried fish
which are sent over Russia, and the people
at AsJrakhan live on little else than fish.
The poorer of them eat the refuse, and this
has aggravated the cholera there and the
cases are rapidly increasing. The fish
which are shipped from Astrakhan are often
not more than half cured and thev ire in a
bad condition when they are sold to the
peasants. They are eaten half cooked and
as little care is taken to keep them clean

diet as can be found

dangers, it is necessary to know the char
acter of the country and the life of the
people.
The Volga is as wide as the Mississippi
It Is :, 800 miles long and it has as great a
trade as any river in the world. 1t flows
through q fat country and the lower half
passes through an almost treeless region.
Upon these great plains the hot sun of the
tropics is beating down now with relentless
vigor. There is absolutely no protection
from it, and the women go about with moth
ing but handkerchiefs on their heads, and
children boil their brains under the suns
burning rays, with no' protection what
soeveL The men wear heavy caps, and the
houses are so built that they are like bake
oreas at this time of the year.
No Sanitary Provisions at All.
At Kazsn and Samara I saw hundreds
upon hundreds of half-naked men lying on
the roadside and sleeping with this tropical
sun beating down upon them and with the
smells Of decaving vegetable matter all
about them. Saratoff has a system of water
works, but most of these Volga cities have
no sanitary arrangements whatsoever, and
water closet is one of a thousand. The
peasants, among whom the cholera is the
worst, have absolutely no knowledge of the
rules o health, and their diet and habits
would naturally breed the cholera and can
not but increase it. Their favorite soup is
made Of green cabbages, and old men and
babies eat this by the gallon. They eat
carrots, and one of the chief articles which
you find peddled everywhere and which is
consumed ii large quantities is the green
cucumber, which is eaten raw, Just as it
comes from the vine, or, more often, after
1t has become wilted and stale from lying
about under the hot sun.
In the provinces just above Saratoff a
great deal of famine bread is still used /
saw some of this stuff while was on the
Vulga and II would be the ruin of any man
whose bowels were at all delicate. Its sur
face is Of a dirty gray, and when you break
il open you find that its inside is of deep
brown. il is salty and sandy, and tastes
more like clay than bread. 1t looks as
though it were made of bran and husks, and
il is as gritty as the apples of Sodom.
There are thousands OF people who are eat
ing this bread to-day, and while was on
