part OF the field, the center Of the field
being still der AIDED. while the soil con-
tinues to be piled in ridges. Even
when thc back burrows are laid out of
unequal width. the unequal distribu-
ton of the soil is only a little more
spread and less apparent.
To avoid all these imperfections. l
pillow my fields toward the center. l
begin by providing n few dozen light
stakes, and a Irvine a hundred feet in
length. Now. with IN assistant, meas
ure the length of the string from the
fence and set a few stakes, as shown
by the outer dotted line q in Fig. 3.
Beginning at these stakes measure in
ward again md set stakes as before.
and repeat the process until you have
reduced the field to a small center or
core bounded in the figure by the inner
dotted line b. Now begin to pillow at
the middle Of this center piece. turning
the burrows toward the center, and be.
ing careful To finish even to the stakes.
Then back-forrow from each corner Of
this central piece TO the corresponding
corner of the field, going out and back
twice on each corner.
The field will then appear as shown
in Fig. 4, and you can begin blowing
all the way around the central piece,
turning the burrows toward the center
until the field is completed. The diff.
ferent sets of stakes will serve as guides
by which the different sides OF the
piece will be kept even. and the whole
will finish even TO the fence. A labor
saving ~cxpedient is to simply back-fur-
row the corners Of the field, as shown
In Fig. 4. II il is sod you are blowing,
when you reach the back-furrowed
corner Of the field. without stopping
the team you simply roll the plow over
on the mouldboard, and while the team
makes an easy q you guide the
plow to its place and let IL take its fur
row on the other side without pause or
hindrance. In fact the corner Is turned
in this way much easier and quicker
than in the ordinary n Of going
around the land.-Charles T. Benton

THE TARIFF HEARINGS.


VI fhDhokOttbttC shAuuI IN
Favor Of Protection.
The hearings before the ways and
means committee have a familiar sound.
The manufacturer who is benefited by
the tariff makes his speech; the manu-
facturcr who isn't benefited by the
tariff asks for n reduction Of the tax on
the materials he uses, or stays away
lest he should only make things worse.
aud neither the nor the pro-
ductive system Of the country AS a
whole is likely to be called to memory.
except as m individual member of the
committee may chance TO ask a uues
ton.
The speech of the manufacturer who
wants all the tariff he has, and more,
II possible. always informs the com
mittce that the business he is carrying
on Is a new one. 1t may have beer car
ried on for fifty or a hundred years. but
some feature Of it Is still new; it is in
its infancy: when it is older it will get
along without protection; indeed, it
will make n price that foreigners cam
not compete with, but just now 1t is
rather more dependent on protection
than it was ten, thirty or sixty years
ago. The manufacturer who APP
pears before him 1.-THE committeeman
will tell him all about the difference
between daily or weekly wages here
and in Europe but he Will not tell him
what the labor cost really is in his
product. The department Of labor has
had the utmost difficulty in getting
manufacturers to tell anything about
the cost of production. and in some no
table cases the superintendent Of the
census failed entirely 10 get informa-
tom that would have shown approxi-
mately the cost Of production.
The information that has been oh
tanned from public and private ngcn-
cics shows some -cxaggcrations In pop
ular statements Of the differences be-
tween European and American wages;
they prove conclusively that the daily
or weekly wage affords no idea Of the
cost OF labor. and they 60 q long way
towards justifying the generalization
that where the wages are the highest
the cost Of production is the lowest
The truth Is that II has been abund-
antly proved that the higher wages
in this country are Offset In whole or
in part by the greater efficiency OF
labor and the frecr use OF labor-saving
devices. while the higher cost Of raw
materials cannot be offset in any such
way. aud so far MS the cost II materials
can he reduced the manufactures and
his operatives will participate in the
benefit. These conclusions arc not
reached alone by statistical investiga-
tons. brs by the testimony of such
manufacturers as have taken the
trouble 20 analyzc their own expenses,
and have been willing to give the pub
lie some information about the costs

PASTED SEVENTY-SlX DAYS.
A Stubborn Sailor Starved Himself For
 FRncied Slight.

PHILApELPHIA, Aug. 2s.-Antonio Ba Chetich died in a scaman's boarding house after having lasted for 16 days. During that time nothing but water passed his lips, Just before he died he called for food, but it was too late. He had only taken 8 few mouthfuls when the end came. The doctors attending him gave a certificate that death was caused by general debility due to voluntary starvation"
 Bachetich was a sailor and when in this city made his home with Lucas BacniCh.
 On Sunday, June II, when he went to the breakfast table there was neither knife, fork nor spoon at his plate He felt him self insulted at this seeming neglect and left the table, refusing to eat and despite the efforts of those interested in him re fused to partake of any kind of food until he finally surprised those at his bedside by asking for food, and a meal was quickly brought to him. He took little beef tea, but before he finished it fell back in the arms of an old shipmate dead.
 He was a stalwart man, weighing ovel 19O pounds when he began his fast. Only his frame remained when he died

Something For Honest, Sober
 Minded Men to Think Of.
The Reputation of Waterbury is at
 Stake.

While disturbances have been going on between Capital and Labor all over this country for many years, the relations existing between employer and employees in this world renonwed industrial center have been sin gularly free from friction. Manufac- turers and their workmen alike held aloft the White Banner of peace, and all of us rejoiced in the growth of our city and the good feeling that prevailed. We have had no MT Tricks here. The men at the helm in the various branches of industry were willing to listen to just complaints and remedy the evil as far as they were able. The same common sense and bust- ness foresight that our manufacturers have always shown will take us through this financial crisis, which every one be- lieves to be only temporary.
 First and most important, the credit of our manufacturers Is beyond question. No store-keeper will refuse their checks or promise to pay. It will serve as 8 medium of exchange until the cash comes. The work men will be willing to work with this understanding. Next we read from the most reliable sources, R. J. Dunn IS Co.,, Bradstreet's and others, that the demand will soon overtake the supply. There is absolutely no stock ahead. The manufacturers who take advantage of the present will be the first to reap the benefit of the future Is the tariff question in the way Is there an honest man who seriously thinks that any administra- tion-Repubi an or Democrat-would revise the tariff without giving due notice to its own citizens to save themselves from all harm-time to load and unload their stock We do not think so. Whatever party we belong to we are all Americans, and are not going to work our own ruin. When it comes to the point there is plenty of patriotism left yet: and in this case there is money in patriotism and how we Han ees love the money. Furniture manufacturers are getting stock ahead as fast ss they can, as they know they will be overwhelmed with orders very soon. Are we the only ones that must go ahead We are compelled to occupy our new quarters (American Pin company, East Main street, in January next, and the people will not be disappointed. Bring along your checks, l. o. Us and promise to pay, and we will fill your houses with furniture, stoves, crockery, carpets, etc. We wish the manufacturers owed us 8 round million.

CLOSED HIS LAST DEAL.
"Old Hutch" the Famous Specu-
 lator, Utterly Ruined.
FORCED AT LAST TO SELL HIS SEAT
His Recent Deal In Wheat Left Him Com plctely Bnnkrupt-In His Day He Has Been Worth S1o, ooo COO-An Eccentric Character.

CmCAGO, Aug 2S-Benjamin Peters Hutchinson, the greatest operator ever known on the Chicago board of trade, has probably ended his career as speculator forever. Over two years ago he failed and since then has not figured 'on Change" to any great extent. He has now sold his cer tifcate of membership on the board, and this may be called the last act of his specu- lative career. Only twice since he returned
 from New York has he appeared on the
 floor of the Exchange. When the Cudahy-
 Fairbank-Wrigh deal collapsed, the old
 man was an interested speculatOr.
 A few days ago he made a deal in wheat.
 He got on the wrong side of the market,
 and there were calls for margins. To meet
 them he was obliged to sell his certificate
 of membership for about 500. It was bought by Armour X Co for one of the employees of the firm. With the money thus obtained the once great plunger made his margins good. But it took the last of his collateral to do it.
 Once Worth Ten Millions. Five years ago Mir Hutchinson was re- ported to be worth anywhere from S5 0O0, ,oO0
 to SlO, ,OOO, ,WN-all made in speculation. He has always been peculiar in his habits ! and spent most of his time when not on the floor of the Exchange in n small room on
 the upper floor of the board of trade build | ing. Here he sA'pt and cooked his meals. After he returned from New York he re
 stunned this life instead of going to the beautiful residence of his son, Charles L. Hutchinson, down on Prairie avenue | where he might have been comfortable Why he chooses to live apart from his fam | fly is a secret known only to those most in terested. Both Mir. Hutchinson and his son refuse to discuss the question.
 Young Mir, Hutchinson is too busy witf his duties as president of the Corn EX | change bunk. as receiver for Cudahy ant | in many other ways to have much time fol | the discussion of such questions anyway | even if he were so inclined. He is of diff | ferent stamp from his father. He does uo | speculate, He saves. The consequence i! | that while his father had to sell his boarC
 of trade membership to help him out in ! | picayune deal young Hutchinson Is in
 vesting in good paying properties It wa
 said at the time of the old speculator's fail
 ure, April 2S, 1891. that his son received th
