Milwaukee, Wis, Aug. Q, 1892.
While considerable rust exists in
wheat, rye and barley, and oats have
suffered considerable from lodging
and a little from rust. the weather
conditions have been generally favora.
BILE during the past week, with the
temperature slightly above normal.
In the northern half OF the state
beneficial showers have been frequent
while in the southern part but little
rain has fallen and it would now be a
benefit.
Warmth and absence of rain in the
southern counties have caused some
fields of oats to ripen prematurely,
before the heads were well filled, but
on the whole the oat crop promises to
be large. Cutting has begun.
Winter wheat. rye and barley are
mostly in the shock. Spring wheat
will bn ready to cut the latter part of
the lex.
Corn and potatoes are coming along
fairly well, but of course are behind
the season. Corn is in the tassel.
Both begin to feel the need of rain in
the southern part of the state
Tobacco is growing fast and the crop
genarally is in excellent condition.
Millet and buckwheat doing well.
Bees are prosperous but behind their
usual season in swarming. Unless fall
feed is extra good the honey crop will
be light.
Chinch bugs In Wood, Juneau and
Jackson counties are reported at work
in spring wheat.

Tariff Is a tax in the sense that the
fence that the farmer builds around his
garden or his cornfield is a tax paid by
the farmer. 1t is tax that consists of
the construction and maintenance of
the fence. And, yet, the fence must
be constructed and maintained, or the
trespassing animals of the neighbor-
hood would destroy the entire pro-
ceeds of the labor, and the fruits of
the land of the farmer. The tariff is
also tax, in that the cost of its con-
struction and maintenance may be
said to be paid by the people; but the
loss due to submission to the com.
mercial trespass that is thus re-
PEELED would be greater than the loss
due to the maintenance of the tariff.

dered him of his money and valuables.
They had evidently intended to kill
him. but failed to inf1ict a mortal
wound. These tragedies are connected,
in the public mind, with the destitution
prevailing among the working classes,
