The estimates by states and territories of
area product and value Of the principal cereals
Of the United States for 1891, made by the
statistician of the Department Of Agriculture,
show that the crops Of corn, wheat and oats,
including all but or 8 per cent of the cereal
aggregate, are reported. The total for corn
has only been exceeded once. The wheat
product is the largest ever grown in any couu-
try, and yield per acre in the United States is
the largest ever reported by the Department of
Agriculture. The total for oats was slightly
exceeded in 1889. The aggregates are as fol-
lows: Corn-Area. &c, 2O4, SIS acres; product,
2,06O, 154, 900 bushels; value, 1886, 439, 228
Wheat-Area, 9,9l6, 1877 acres; product, Gill;
100000 bushels; value, S5l3,472, I'll. Oats
Area, 1851. 1861 acres; product, 73s, 1894, 900
bushels value, $685., 3d. 67. The aggregate Of
all cereals is the largest yet produced and will
supply tfty-fOur to fifty-fve bushels per unit
of population. The wheat supply is the largest
ever reported in proportion to population,
averaging "a bushels to each person. against
80 for the largest previous crop in 1884. The
average value to the farmer is 40.6 cents for
corn. 80. 50 cents for wheat and 81. As cents tor
oats. The value of wheat is greater than in
any year since 1883, that Of the short crop OF
1888 alone excepted. The products are of
course in measured bushels.

Reports have been made to the Treasury
Department Of attempted evasions Of the re-
quirements of the statute as to the stamping of
imported merchandise with the name Of the
country of origin, especially in the importation
of cutlery. Samples Of goods so imported
were submitted One was penknife on which
tho word Germany" is stamped in dimin-
utive and illegible letters and another was a
razor on tho extreme edge Of the tang OF which
tie word Germany" is stamped in such a
manner that the portion containing the word
may be filed of, leaving the razor without
mark to indicate ito origin. In another case
the goods are stamped with The frm name of
American manufacturers. In q letter to the
collector Of customs at New York on this SUBJ
ject Acting Secretary Spalding says: "As the
manner in which these goods are stamped
plainly indicates an intention to evade the re-
quirements Of law you will take tho necessary
steps for preventing the importation of such
goods and OF any others stamped in a similar
defective manner" Other collectors were
similarly instructed.

To Protect Horses From Cruelty.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Since the descendants Of Balaam's ass and
their relations did not inherit the power OF
their great ancestor, and cannot demand for
themselves Of unjust drivers sWhat have
done unto thee that thou hast smitten me
these three times?" let all who wish to succor
the oppressed ask it for them. Hundreds of
animals in this city are daily urged beyond

There are enough half-starved animals In

Now, will you suggest:
l. To ask the merchants to zee their stable
keepers for themselves and assure themselves
of the condition in which the horses come in.
2. Ask ladies to report to those they deal
with any oppression practiced on their ami
mails; also to have their order lists ready, TO
prevent over-driving from loss Of time, and 10
have parcels promptly taken in.
8. Urge the owners Of dray horses TO zee for

The architect. Mr.. Edbrooke, has practically

ttecting. the basement Of tho build
in the event Of floods that is worthy Of note.
especially as some question has been thrown
upon the possibility of keeping the lower part
Of the building dry.
TO REEF THE BASEMENT DIT.
He proposes TO elevate his first story windows
to such height that their lower stills will be
far above the limits Of the highest water known
on the avenue. There is n record Of twelve
inches OF water at the corner Of 18th and d
streets, and the architect intends to secure i'm
munity from at least two feet of food.
The basement for this purpose is &c be con-
structed in the form of a water-tight pan. and
yet there will not be the least interference with
the light There will be On area three feet in
width extending under the sidewalk at
each light opening in the basement. one
under each window In the first story. Let
into the pavement and the light open
ings are prismatic glasses that admit the
light and exclude the water. Thus at each
opening there will be light from the side az
well as from above. There is no possibility of
the entrance Of water except by casual leakage
or by seepage. This. which, tt il estimated. will
not amount to more than few gallons in the
very dampest times, will be easily removed by
means OF q steam pump to be provided for this
purpose.
This basement will be about twelve feet in
depth and will afford ample room for machinery
