The stock of New Pork VIII BE Quito
Limited Next Fail.
The advice is often given to breed
for early pigs that can be pushed rapid
ly during the summer months, and be
sold before cold winter weather comes.
The two considerations that enter into
the rearing of profitable pigs are the
cost Of production, and the price real
lied when sold. If a breeder attempts
to raise winter pigs, he must go to the
expense of providing warm houses for
the herd and take almost constant care
of the pigs to prevent loss in cold,
cloudy weather. When warmer weather
comes they must be fed on grain which
has been carried through the winter
and is at its highest value, making the
cost of raising and fa~ttening the very
highest possible. The price in No
vember is generally lower than at any
other time, so that the farmer loses
on the price of grain fed and on the
price Of pork sold.
On the other hand, if pigs are far
rowed in the spring they live with the
dams until new oats are at hand, and
on these, with a slop made of shorts
and bran, they do finely until new corn
is ready for cutting, During the fall
the pumpkins from the cornfield will
make both fat and growth, and fit the
system for heavy feeding of corn dur
ing November, December and January.
BY February the pigs are in fine con-
dition and bring a big price. February
and August are the two months out of
the twelve when the highest price is
reached, so we see if pigs can be raised
safely, easily, cheaply and sold at tho
highest market price, the greatest
amount of profit is secured. A warm
shed can be built cheaply in which to
finish these May pigs, and cold weather
creates a good appetite.
The west is almost depleted of hogs,
and the supply for the next eight
months is but little more than sufficient
to meet the demands of the markets.
The stock of new pork will therefore
be quite limited next fall. 1t will paw
anyone to take good care of his spring
pigs this year. The best policy for a
farmer to pursue is to raise a certain
number OF pigs every year., regardless
OF the ruling prices at the time. Then
he Will have some to sell when a sea-
son OF high prices comes, while he who
reduces his stock during dull times
Will find himself without hogs when
there is a good market, American

The announcement of the acceptance
by the secretary of the interior, IIoke
Smith, of the resignation of Pension
Commissioned Green Is. Raum is glad
ne ws.
Secretary Smith has not waited for
the president to select a successor. lie
has summary relieved the nation of
the disgrace of having Raum occupy an
official place, For this he is entitled to
public thanks.
The people do not need to be told
how unfit Raum is. More than once
has been given in detail his dishon.
orable record. President Harrison
knew it all, knew it long before his
w term expired; but he kept Raum
in place in spite of his proved un~ftness
and shame.
Why he did this may never be known.
Perhaps he thought Raum was a pet of
the union soldiers and could not safely
be disturbed by a president seeking re.
election, This was rank folly, as the
votes demonstrated. But il Harrison
had any other reason for clinging to
this d~isreputable representative of
honest soldiers it can only be coniec.
tured what it was. Certainly he was a
drag on the administration and a scan
dial to the republican party.
But he is out of Office. He was put
out. The acceptance of his resignation
before a successor is appointed was a
mark of want of confidence. 1t is an
act that will crafty all good men in
every party. 1t ends Raum's public

BILE circumstances is he likely to come

A ROBEER TAX.


me Mchliiey Bill.
The Mckinley bin retained a tax on
refined sugars of half a cent "A pound.
For the year ending last December
there were imported only $4,000, 600
pounds Of refined sugar, and there
were exported over $4,000, 600 pounds.
There were imported $3.50, 900, 600
pounds OF raw sugar free Of tax. The
comparatively small amount Of refined
imported shows how fully the sugar
trust controls our market. The fact that
we export refined sugars shows that no
protection, not even that OF half a cent
a pound, IS needed. As a revenue tax
it amounts to nothing. As a means of
plundering the consumers of sugar in
this country its power will be seen by
a few facts.
The stock OF the sugar trust, still n
trust Notwithstanding its reorganiza-
ton under the flexible laws of New
Jersey, is $75 5000, 600, very largely
water. 1t declared Il quarterly dividend
recently of 3 per cent. and an extra
dividend OF ten per cent A dividend
was paid in January Of 81, $50, 900, and
the official statement is made that it
now has a surplus OF s. 1000, 600. The
profits of a little less than q year are
thus seen to be about SIG, 900, 600.
These figures are given by the Com.
mercial Bulletin, of New York.
The import price OF raw sugar Is
about 3,37 cents a pound; that Of re.
lined 4. SO, Il difference of l.l9 cents o
pound Deducting 5 cents n pound,
the tax, and there remains 80 cent q
pound, to cover the cost of refining.
which is more than ample. Allowing
for loss in refining, and the tax of half
a cent u pound on the quantity i'm.
ported nearly equals and accounts for
the abnormal profits OF the trust. In
other words, the country is taxed some
Sl5, 600, 900 for the benefit of the sugar
trust.-St, Paul Globe.

IfYOu Want The Best

ALTHOUGH you may have had good luck
n with but few failures in making cake and
biscuit in the old-fashioned way with soda and
sour milk, or soda and cream OF tartar, you
will have better luck and following directions
no failures with the Royal Baking Powder.
The truth of this must be evident when you
remember that in the leading hotels and res
taurants. and in the homes of our city cousins,
where the latest and best methods are lnvarl-
ably employed, and where the most beautiful
and dainty food is always set out for the guests,
the Royal Baking Powder is exclusively used
for all quickly risen food.
Royal Baking Powder never disappoints;
never makes sour, soggy or husky food; never
spoi.s good materials; never leaves Jumps of
alkali in the biscuit or cake; while all these
things do happen with the best of cooks who
cling to the old-fashioned methods, or who use
other Baking Powders.
If you want the best food, Royal Baking
Powder is indispensable.

1t is a fact which no one disputes,
that nothing worth having is got in
this world without hard work and wait
ing. Yet when we set ourselves seri-
ously the task OF gaining a great good,
we become astonished and complain
loudly at the discovery that we have to
work hard and wait long to get it.
This is about as reasonable as if a man
should acknowledge that two and two
made four, and should grumble because
in his private cash account he could not
make two dollars and two dollars add
up to five dollars. Nothing we find out
in life is more utterly c~onfounding than
this; that truth is not only true in the
abstract, but that it is true for us, 1t
is not only a c%opy-book axiom, but Il
vital fact in life, that if we do good,
good is bound to come of it; and if we
