TROY, N. Y.
Weather and Crop Report.

For the week ending July 18th. The
abundant sunshine during several days
has been very acceptable and well i'm
proved by farmers in all the southern and
central districts in securing the hay crop
which is now getting slightly over-ripe.
In some of the Connecticut valleys the
hay has been almost entirely put in, in
excellent condition, but generally only a
beginning has been made, and in the
northern countries in New England only
a few have begun. The crop is reported
good in Northern Vermont, North-cen-
tral Maine, most of Massachusetts,. and
generally in Connecticut. But in North
eastern Massachusetts, Southern and
Central Vermont, and New Hampshire,
and Southern Maine it proves to be light
and generally below the average. A re-
port from York County, Me-, states that
the crop in that county will not be over
three fourths of the average. Some grass
is rusting slightly.
The ~epnrts on the condition of pota-
toes are not enough to warrant state
ment on the amount of injury from the
heavy rains in the north. Many report
them small there, but in the south they
are looking very well: early potatoes are
nearly ripe in many fields. Corn is small
ing fairly well.
Wild fruit is in excellent condition.
and promises well. Blueberries are get
ting ripe, and the bushes hang full.
Apples are dropping badly, and in many
sections are reported very much below
what the blossom promised. Chestnut
trees are in bloom. The sunshine has
done good work for the cranberries,
which are growing well now. The vine
worm is doing less damage than formerly,
but the tire-worm is still at work on
many bogs.
VermOnt.-Troy haying has commenc-
ed, and iti expected a large crop will be
secured. East Randolph: corn rather
backward; rather cool and wet during
the first part of the week. East Rox-
bury: the sunshine has been beneficial
to strawberries especially. Ludlow:
crops looking fairly well, but need more
hot, dry weather: grass very light.
Hartland: oats headed and look promis-
ing; it looks favorable for good crop
of apples; the frequent rains start the
grass quickly, and good second crop
may be eXected.

Cream at twenty-four hours old and
slightly acid ought to come readily at a
temperature of 57o to $50, and in 40
minutes at the longest. Irregular temp
erature of the milk and cream, to great
extremes, has its influence, and bad
water is a reason that is not often con-
sidered. The milk of COWS long in milk
mixed with others has been known to
prevent the butter from coming, and add
ing several patches of cream together at
the time of churning, and not properly
mixing them several hours before churn-
ing, is prolific cause of long and diff
cult churning. Where the amount of
cream is small, and the difficulty seems
to proceed from this cause, the cream
can be mixed with three times its bulk
of water at 75o and allowed to rise, and
then when SKINNED it can be diluted
with water and readily churned. Very
sweet cream should not be churned al
over $50, while cream moderately ripe
should be churned at least g. or 80 warm.
er, and very acid cream may need to &c
still higher. In all cases it is not an un.
wise plan where the cream is refractory
to add water, warmer or colder, as the
case may be, according to the temper.

| Tariff or not, as all impartial judges,
| even Free Traders will admit.
Protection is no friend of trusts; in
fact, tits essentially opposed to them.
| 1t prevents the formation of information
al combinations, for which there could
be no destructive remedy, and guarantees
men who wish to compete with trust a
fair field and chance for competition
By Protection also, trusts are placed
within the reach of our own laws; placed
where they can be attacked and destroyed
by the strong arm of the Government.
Free Trade, on the other hand, either
leads to the establishment of information
al combinations, or, by destroying an in
dustry in this country and causing us to
become dependent for the product of
that industry on a few foreigners, puts
us at the mercy of foreign trust fro I'M
| which there can be no escape, and which,
of course, no legislation of ours can
reach.
This is entirely in harmony with the
ordinary Free Trade programme-to
subject us in everything to the domi-
nation of the foreigner.
The only effective remedy for combi-
nations is a radical antitrust law, such
as that already passed by Protectionist
Congress.
The question of trusts can be formu-
lated in few words; Free Trade and
foreign trusts, absolutely our masters.
Protection, every difficulty in the way of
forming trusts, new competition to
nullify their influence, and prohibitory
legislation to destroy them when formed.

GOOD REASON WHY.

II there had been Free Trade in this
country there would have been no strike
at the Homestead works-because
there would have been no Homestead
works.-Uticd Herald.
And if there had been no Association
of iron workers the more than 1000
wOrkmen would have been at work to-
day, while the $50 who felt agrieved
were settling their differences with the
firm. This course would have been
Americanism. The strike is foreign
idea and if voted through the Democracy
will shut down all such works as Home
stead, or else reduce wages to the Euro
pean rate.

OYRua WEST FIELD.

After prolonged struggle with dis
ease, the layer of the Atlantic cable is
dead. His career began with common
school education, and two dollars per
week and board. From these humble
beginnings he rose to fame, wealth and
immortality. The history of his labors
in spanning the ocean by telegraph will
be ready recalled. During the dethrone-
ment of reason and in the delirium of
his last sickness, he lived over the trials
and victory of the days of 1886. He
is at rest.

The Presidential candidates are pre-
sumably all in the field, unless DR.. Mary
Walker should get herself nominated.
AS the case now stands, the Republicans
first in the field, have Harrison and Reid,
the Democrats have Cleveland and
Stevenson, the Prohibitionists have Bid
we'll and Cranfill. (The best that is
known about these is that the blather-
skite Sam Small was opposed to them. }
The Farmers Alliance party have Weaver
and Field. If you, Mr. Voter, believe in
the English idea of Free Trade, you
should be for Cleveland; if you believe
in protecting American labor, you should
be for Harrison; if you can make your
self believe that you can lift yourself
over fence by tugging at your boot
straps, you can take your choice between
the Alliance or Prohibition parties.
This seems a plain statement of the case.
1t is little early yet to get excited over
the canvass, and yet not too early to think
about it. You will be better citizen if
you vote intelligently, and not because
you or your father has belonged to a
party. Parties may come and go, but
the rights of the people rise superior to
partisan consideration. A tremendous
majority of our people desire the public
good. The question is, how to attain it.

A MINIATURE BALLAMY COLONY.

1t is rumored that we have in this city
a Bellamy colony on a small scale.
About half dozen families in a neigh
borhood have entered into an agreement
to live as one family. One of the women
is hired to do the cooking for SO a week,
while the others pay their proportionate
parts. Every available room in the
houses is rented and each individual is
busy with his or her peculiar work, but
all congregate at meal time in one place.

a good deal of interest.-BeUdst Jour

Here is what the Amalgamated Assoc
iation of Iron and Steel Workers said in
their memorial to Congress protesting
against the passage of the Mills Bill:
"Some will argue that our employers
will reduce our wages anyway, even
though the Tariff remains as it is. We
ask you to leave that to us, and we will
endeavor to take care of ourselves. As
is customary in all branches of business,
we have our little family quarrels, but
we dislike outsiders to interfere in the
settlement thereof. We ask respectful
hearing, to the end that we may be
allowed through the medium of Pro-
lection against foreign competition to
maintain decent living wages" Why do
not our Democratic contemporaries
quote these sentiments in their editorials
on iron workers wages? For the rates
paid in Pennsylvania, see another
