THE PANAMA CANAL.

PARIS, Jan. 29-It is expected that
report will soon be made to the chambers
on the subject of government assistance in
the completion of the Panama canal. To
understand the present situation 1t is re-
uuiSite to state that the ninety-three years
concession of the canal granted by the
Colombian government in May, 1873,
stipulated for the opening of the canal
within twelve years. In 1881 VI. de Les
seps formed his Panama Canal company,
which stopped payment and suspended
operations in December, 1855 Tie amount
of capital raised by that now bankrupt
company amounted, according to the
Iiquidator. to /. 329, So, 01S francs. Almost
the whole of this enormous capital was
furnished by small capitalists, who placed
blind confidence in VI. de Lesseps and who
paw in the enterprise another colossal sue
cess similar to that Of Suez.
Soon after the discontinue of NJ. de Les
seps' company, the Judicial liquidator,
with the support os the government, sent
n technical commission TO the Isthmus of
Panama to determine whether it would
be possible to complete the work. This
commission, at the head Of which WAS the
celebrated engineer, NJ Guillemin. de-
Clared in its report that there We're no in
surmountable obstacles to the completion
of the canal with locks. The capital re-
uured for that work was estimated at
600, 600 francs. In the meantime VI.
Napoleon Bonaparte Wyse was sent by
the judicial liquidator to negotiate with
the Columbian government for the pro-

STARNING CATTLE

BOISE CITY, Ida, Jan. 29 Narrowing
reports concerning the starving of cattle
among the foothills of southern Idaho
continue to come in. Hundreds Of dead
cattle have been found lying in heaps in
the hollows where they have sought
refuge. 1t is believed that few cattle can
survive, unless warm weather soon comes
and melts the SHOWS and allows the cattle
to find food. On the Russell ranch 300
horses have found no food for two weeks.
Many of them are now diving.

How Protection Economics,

Some three weeks ago Alfred Dodge,
the noted manufacturer and philan-
thropist, made a speech in New York
in which he gave the following explana-
ton of how he can prosper under pro-
lection, Notwithstanding he has in
creased wages 20 per cent. and reduced
working time half an hour a day, and
Notwithstanding his foreign competitors
have reduced wages and cut their prices
5 per cent:
He had been mading felt for glass pol
iSherS and selling it for S1.30 per pound,
but the Mckinley bill so increased the con-
sumption of polished glass in this country,
that he felt justified in expanding some
$4,000 in improved machinery for manu-
featuring sheet felt, and he is now selling
the same quality at 60 cents per pound,
and making more money than when he
sold it for S1.30
But these plain business facts are be-
yond the comprehension of the free
trade theorist, who affects to be amused,
because protectionists claim in one
breath that protection benefits the pro-
Queer, and in the next that Il benefits
the consumer. Glow can it help the
producer" they triumphantly inquire,
"unless it raises prices, and how can it
benefit the consumer if it does, and how
can it both raise wages and reduce
prices, and if partial reduction of
prices is good thing, why not have free
trade and bring them down to the mar
kets of the world ?"
A man who gets tangled in such logic
as this can easily get clear by studying
such facts as Mr.. Dodge presented, and
by remembering also that any general
cut in prices at the cost of labor is not an
economic advantage or national bless

For "A Rusty PIOw,

Purchase small quantity Of sui
phuric acid, which may be had from
any drug store for small sum. Pour
five ounces of it into pint of water,
slowly and carefully so as not to come
in contact with the hands or the
clothing, as it will eat into the flesh
worse than fire. Apply this to the
pillow or any other iron or steel imple-
ment to be cleaned, with a paint
brush. AS soon as one application Of
the acid is dry apply another, usually
three or four coats will be enough.
Then wash off with clear water. If
any spots remain, paint over these
spots again and rub with brick dust.
After the iron work is cleaned paint
it over with little coal oil or lin
seed oil; this will keep it free from
rust. Set the implement in a dry
place and on a wooden floor. All i'm

General Farm Notes.

FEED we'll but waste no fodder.
Poultry will not thrive on damp
ground.
PLANT potatoes deep and give them
level culture.
IT pays farmers to cooperate in
buying and selling.
BE careful Of the young colts. A
little care in selecting proper food
for them will pay good dividends.
Ensilage or roots do colts great good.
THE man who never works his land
when wet, nor stops cultivation on
account of the drought does much to
insure himself against a failure of
crops.
HARROW a portion of your wheat
field in the spring, and compare re-
suits with the balance of the field.
Use light harrow, with teeth slant
ing backward.

farm wagon, every time you go down
road with ton of produce, your
wagon wheels sink into the soft mud,
form ruts and tend to keep the road
in a rough condition. Your II inch
"roller" will not proftably exert it's
rolling qualities until the mud be-
comes nearly dry. A wider wheel
tire would serve your purpose much
better, and if the farmers use wheel
tires three or four inches wide, as are
used abroad, dirt roads would be
rolled into passable condition in half
the time that is now required to &C
cOmplish this result. Next to water,
nothing is SO destructive of a good
road surface as a heavy vehicle run
ming on narrow wheels. 1t has been
proven over and over again that
wheels with a inch tires cause only
One-half the wear on the road thatr3-
suits from the use of wheels with p

well fed and carefully attended to-
No hen lays continually, and the only
way by which a continual supply of
eggs may be insured is to have birds
varying ages. Still another rule that
should be observed is that heavy
fowls, like Plymouth Rocks or any Of
the Asatics, lay in winter better
than the light breeds, hence the
earliest broods for laying through the
winters coolest weather should be Of
these breeds or at least be sired by a
male of one of these varieties. Late
Matched chicks that are not wanted
for layers before next spring will do
well if partly or wholly Leghorns, as
these birds are noted for being the
layers of the most eggs of any breed
during the mild season of the year.

WHEAT is one of the best feeds you
can give your fowls to produce eggs;
it is also good to feed young chicks
after they are q week or two old, for
their evening feed.
FARMERS bulletins are published

Washington, and may be had by any
farmer who asks for them if he gives

PLANTING seed without testing it
is to directly invite failure OF crop

TO stock if they are made very deep
IN growing corn for silage the best
results are obtained by planting the
kernels foot apart in rows at least
three feet apart. And it should not
be cut until the ear is just in the
glazing stage.
If a timothy meadow can be made
to produce two tons of hay per year,
it will be one OF the most profitable
departments Of the farm. It will do
this if well started on good land
and heavily dressed with manure
each year.
The expense of the maintenance
of horses and mules i'll this country
during the periods Of enforced idle
ness on account of impossible roads
is estimated at $50, 100000 a year,
and with hard smooth country roads,
not half the present power would be
required to draw loads.
If good crops the past season en-
abled you to keep out of debt, let us
caution you to use every endeavor to
stay out. The farmer who is free
from debt will buy where he can get
the best value for the least money,
and may sell his crops when and
where he can get the most for them.

PLOw WITH SECTIONAL BEAM.

sections who have a wooden-beam
pillow have made a joint IN the beam,
as shown. The joint should be made
within one foot Of where the iron
standard is secured to the beam. The
tongue Of the joint is eight inches
long; a three-quarter-inch hole is
made near the shoulder, in which is
placed closelY-fttfng bolt. A series
OF holes is also made in the tongue
near Che end in which a bolt or iron
pin is inserted, which holds the beam
at different angles. With the horse
walking IN the furrow. the end of
beam is directly behind it, and not
scraping off the bark or mutilating
the trees and vines. PlOws thus
arranged by farmers themselves have
been in use for many years, and are
placed in straight line, the pillow is
again ready for common work. -
