An Experim ent In Sheep.

Wool growers all over the country
will be interested to greater or less
degree in the result of an experiment
entered upon by Mr.. Bennett of the
American Wool and Cotton Reporter.
Mr.. Bennett is opposed to the present
duties on woodland does not believe
it necessary to profitable sheep raising,
while Injurious to the manufacture of
woolen goods. He proposes TO demon
strate by practice that his theory about
the uselessness of the wool tariff is cor
rect.
Six adjoining farms in Maine that
have been abandoned as Improbable
have been purchased by Mr.. Bennett,
the whole making tract of 400 acres.
Some of the buildings will he put in re-
pair, one or two more barr and sheep
sheds added and wire fencing put
around the land. Then the business Of
raising mutton sheep will be entered
upon. The experiment with merinos
in that section have never been satis-
factory, so none of that breed will be
taken. The Hampshire breed being
more hardy and requiring less care, will
be adopted, another reason being; that
besides being good mutton sheep they
grow very good grade of wool. Part
of the land will be devoted to the pro-
duction of small grain, and by looking
after the grass land he hopes to support
considerable flock of sheep on the 400
acres. He is sanguine that the expert
ment will be a success and q large
enough profit will be realized on the in
vestment to make the abandoned hill
farms of New England again valuable.

Bulletin Al OF the Purdue University
Agricultural Experiment station con-
tains information of interest aud i'm
p0rtance concerning wheat as grown
In Indiana. The following are some
of the points of importance, as given
in the bulletin:
/, Velvet chaff, Michigan amber and
FultZ varieties of wheat have been
grown for niue years on the university
farm, and rank in value as named,
though Michigan amber surpasses Vel
vet chaff as rust-resisling variety.
2, Red Clawson and Jones' winter
fife are the two most promising recent
ly introduced varieties.
3, for eight years, six pecks of seed
sown per acre, have given the most sat
isfacIOry results.
4, In the region of Lafayette, "a higher
average yield has been secured from
wheat sown September 20, over other
dates of sowing.
5. Judicious rotations, including
grass, have given better return than
constant grain chopping.
6. Heavy applications of manure and
fertilizers to a worn soil growing corn
and wheat alternately, have given pay
ing returns.
Z, The average results Of all the ex-
periments at this Station with fertil-
zers and manures, upon wheat during
the past three years, in full or two
thirds doses, have not heen profitable.
8, The use of hot water or copper sui
phate failed to destroy the spores OF
loose smut.
8, Bunt or sinking smut in wheat
was successfully destroyed by using
hot water or copper sulphate.
| 10, Early and late harvesting oi
wheat had practically no effect on yield
or weight of grain.
IL, Yield of grain and straw were
considerable reduced by moving wheat
on certain plats in spring, to CHECK
rankness Of growth.
II. In comparing forms of nitrogen
for fertilizing the wheat plant, sui phate
of ammonia gave rather better yield
than nitrate of soda or dried blood.
13, AS the plants fertilized with
nitrate were slower to mature than the
others, these also suffered more from
rust than did the Others.
Persons interested in more complete
account of these wheat experiments,o ,ol
who wish the publication of the station
can secure free copies of the same by

Protecting Metal Workers.

Mr.. Henry q. Marquand imported
from England not long ago bronze
statue of Eros, eleven inches high, for
which he had paid 100. The collector
imposed duty of 45 per cent. on it,
CHASING it as manufacture Of metal
Mr.. Marquand appealed to the board of
appraisers, and they decided to admit
the statue free as an antiquity, as it was
made about $50 B. G. The collector ap-
pealed from this ruling to the United
States circuit court, and Judge Lacombe
has decided that the object is dutiable
at IS per cent. as q piece Of metal statu-
ary. So Mr.. Marquand must pay $185

Machines have been invented which
make excellent shawls almost auto
maiieally.
Such shawls are heavily taxed. while
the fine cashmere shAwls made by
hand are admitted under much lower
taxes.
The object is TO give our machine
owners the largest possible benefit Of
the new invention for which the civil
lization Of the entire world Is RESPONSE
BILE, and by which the entire race ought
to be benefited to the fullest extent.
But Mckinley says To an American
woman: II you can afford costly hand
made shawls produced by the "pauper
labor" of India, you need only pay
half the tax levied on machine made
shawls, q result of European mechanic
al progress. These shawls you must
not use at ALL"
This Is not metaphor or rexaggeration.
The Mckinley taxes on machine-made
shawls are prohibitive. From October
lst, 1880, to June 1st, 1891, the total
imports of machine-made shawls
valued at under 80 cents pound were
lseven) pounds, valued at 81 two
dollars,) while the imports of lightly
taxed fine shawls valued at over 40
cents pound were 235,957 pounds.
The intention of the Mckinley tax
was to completely abolish competition
IN everyday machine-made shawls, and
1t has done it. The tax prohibits Amer
leans from buying such shawls abroad,
or from buying them at all except at
prices fixed under the Mckinley bill.
The Democratic House passed bill
reducing the 155 per cent. Mckinley
tax on every day shawls to thirty-five
per cent. The Republicans of the sem
ate pigeon-holed the bill. They were
afraid even to discuss it.-Repu6lic.

A Wonderful Machine,

c. NJ. Spencer, whose inventions some
time ago much simplified the making of
screws, has, with A. H. Eddy, invented
and completed O machine which is be-
lieved to be as far ahead of his other in
ventions as they were ahead of the old
hand machines. The new machine is in
successful operation, and every test of it
has proved highly satisfactory. Human
ingenuity, it would seem, can develop
screw machinery no further.
The machine will take the wire from
coil, head the screw, cut the threads, cut
off the screw from the coil and make the
slot. No machine has been invented before
that would do all this. 1t does without
any additional handling of material what
before this present invention was always
done by two or three machines. Besides,
it separates the finished screws from the
shavings, depositing them clean and
bright in a receptacle placed to receive
them. All other machines have to be fed
with the Strengthened wire, the rods being
about ten feet long. The last two or three
inches of every rod are wasted. With this
machine the only waste is at the end of
each coil, two or three inches, and the coil
may be 400 or 500 feet long.
The advantage of feeding from coil is
not only in the saving of waste, but also in
the saving of labor Put on a coil of wire,
start the machine and it will attend to it.
self. The operator can attend to other
| duties if he likes and when he returns he
will find lot of completed screws, the lit
tie machine being still at work and attend.
ing strictly to business.
Simplicity is the ruling feature of this
machine. and the impression produced in
watching it work is the wonder that no
one invented it before. In other machines
the wire is revolved rapidly against the
tools and die. In this the wire is held in
the same position throughout the process
and is carried by an arm against the differ.
ent instruments, which operate upon ii
until the completed screw is turned out

Tax on finest shawls. ......79 per ca

The intention of this is to make pos
sible an advance in the prices of shawls
made in this country by machines run
by the cheapest of cheap labor.
The articles in which the cost of la
bor is least is taxed the highest, because
the manufacturer who dictates the tax
does not care to produce articles re-
quiring high-priced skilled labor.

The Taxes onShawIs.

One popularity Of Mckinley taxes is
that they are always hghtest on the
finest goods. This Is easily accounted
for. The aim of the American trusts
Is to employ as title skilled labor as
possible, and it takes skilled labor TO
make the finest goods. The American
trust wishes to control the market for
goods that are turned out by maehin-
cry with the least amount Of handlabor
possible. Consequently in chedule the
for the Mckinley bill the trusts ASSESS
ed the highest taxes against the impOr-
tation of Common and medium grades.
This Is true throughout the bill, and IL
Is true in the case of shawls, which we
have started out TO consider In this ar
tiele.
A shawl that costs under ten cents a
pound abroad is taxed SI.55 on every
81 of its value.
A shawl costing abroad over thirty
and not over forty cents pound is
taxed Sl.l4 on every dollar ofits value.
Fine shawls costing over forty cents
u pound are taxed only seventy-nine
cents on each 81 of their value.
The tax on the common shawls for
every day wear is almost double the
tax on the very fine shawl. This is the
ratio in "graphie statistics"
