How The t rinA ects the Farmers


In the month Of December, 1861, the
'armers Of this country exported barley
to The value of $3.50 a.2s. as against the
value o $2s,2lS ia December, 1890;
they cxpertel corn to the value Of ss.-
39 $50 50 % = assss sls.z a e a9gl
ISS; they exported oats 20 TIE value of
.SbTS,5I9. as against the value OF
S16.9so; they exported oatmeal to the
value Of $50. 266. as against the value
of 81 $50; they exported rye to the val.
nc of 5000. s24, us against the value Of
So $50; they exported wheat to tie
valso Of Sl6.6sG, 3Ol, as against the
value of S4.l55. 2as; they exported
wheat -four to the value of 81 ,62a 1871,
as against the value of S4.S53,IE =.
Their total sales Of brealstuifs in De-
cember. 1891, amounted to $50, al 1893
as against Sl0.l26.736; and taking the
whole calendar year Of 1891. their sales
Of breadstuhs amounted to S22I.3l9.-
500. as against SlS6,s45, 500 in 1890.
This enormous addition to the earnings
Of the farmers. amounting to SIS, O0O,-
600, was accomplished under the opera
ton Of tariff which they we're told by
Democratic free traders would bring
about their utter ruin. 1t has been ac-
complisbed under the policies of party
which the Farmers Allirncc has painted
to them as wholly inimical to their in-
forests. 1t may be assumed that with
these SIS. COO in their pockets the
farmers will now listen to free traders
with degree of amusement
only equalled by their con-
tempt.

American Tin Plate.


There has been a gathering of the
canned goods packers of the country in
Chicago, at which delegates we're pres
cnt from all parts of the United States.
All we're Interested in the development
Of the lin plate industry. One of the
most remarkable statements was made
by Mr.. +. Stanford, manager of the
American Tin Plate Company. at FL
wood, Indiana. Mr. Stanford said:
I may state that until recently was
one of the tin plate monopoly of South
Wales. where | spent about twenty years
in that pariicu ar trade. l came to
this country four months ago with view
Of ranking with the pioneers of the
American tin plate industry. The more
| see aud the more | learn Of the coun-
try the more / ike it, and also the more
| am convinced that America is going to
manufacture her own tin plates, and at q
very near future. and at lower cost
than they have ever been made.
1t is not probable that Mr.. Stanford's
statement will be contradieted, even by
those Democrats who. last year. persistent
ly declared that tin plate could not and
would not be manufactured here. The
fact is that hencefortb the manufacture
of tin plate will be recognized as an i'm
portant industry in this country, thanks
to the wisdom of the Republican party

Oyster Legislation.

Everybody feels that the great prob
lem Of the common wealth il the oyster
question and its practical solution per-
ylexes- the minds of the wisest men in
Maryland.
Public sentiment on the question is
fhirly divided iuto two somewhat con-
ficting viewa. One set Of men main
iain that the proper solution of the prob
lem lies in the direction Of stringent Gull
laws. sIiortenei nrriod for taking oys-
s,fers. and al ,sihnd require
iuents rspirdis4. me use of the steam
dredge. They look with disfavor upon
fhe acquisition of oyster farms on tie
part of private individuals either by pur-
chase or by lease.
Another view does not object to the
cull law or to any reasonable restric-
ttons regarding the catching season or
'he methods Of taking oysters But it
is also maintained tina. the natural beds
are being slowly but surely depleted by
the methods now pursued and that the
time has come when recourse mist be
had 10 some sort of artificial oyster cul-
iure. A great many suggestions have
been offered along this line, but that
which has found most adherents is to
leave the natural beds as they archie
heritage of the Maryland oysterman-
and to extend the oyster industry by the
leasing of the vacant lands to p ivate
parties who will plant them, and add
continually to the supply of the bivaye
to satisfy constantly increasing de-
nand.
This view of the case is all the more
convincing because of the recently en-
acted law in Virginia. 1t provides for
an accarste survey Of the oyster bids. =
The natural beds are to be marked off
aud preserved as public property. open
to all licensed oystermen as heretofore.
Aside f'om them, oyster farms of loss
than $50 acres in extent are subject to
lease for planting purposes at 81 an
acre. the leasehoId running twenty years.
after which the land revcrts to the State.
This is compromise la '. an its pro-
visions wera worked gu, after long dis
sussion in tie Virginia Legislature,
re alhviews we're brought forward
warmly championed by their respec-
= adh,reuts..
