Corn and Hogs Now Bring the
Money.

From the Rockbridge News Sept. 19th.]
In diversified farming there is always some
thing that is abundant in this section and
commands good price which goes far to
make up for the loss by short crops and low
prices in other products. Last year with us
it was the apple crop. This year it is going
to be corn and hogs. The corn crop is fair
ly good one and corn is worth % cents at
Lexington. Hogs are worth here from 5 to
5114 cents gross; from 81 to 65s cents net A
we'll informed stockman, who has long been
engaged in the business, states that he does
not believe that there ever were as many hogs
in the county before. Two years ago there
were few hogs. The price advanced and
hence the increase. This month there have
been shipped or bought to be shipped nearly
S., 600 worth Of hogs by John P Welsh alone.
East & Driver at Raphine, have probably
shipped more For some years past no hogs
have been shipped in this month. The local
markets generally consume all the surplus
hogs Of the farmers. During the winter they
will do SO this year. The interest Of farmers
in hog feeding is shown by the fact that some
of them are arranging to feed pigs for ship
ment to the June market. This is very un-
usual. Some of our farmers have followed
heeXample set in the West and fed wheat
largely to hogs.

THE DIFFERENCE OVER THE
COUNTER.

Tho practical evidence of the low prices
under the new Democratic tariff is the
price at which goods, Oh which the tariff
is reduced, are sold over the counter.
Some discussion having arisen over the ex-
tent of the reduction on some articles in The
hardware trade, the VINDICAToR inter
viewed a member Of the Worthingtol,
Hardware Company in this city, one of the
largest firms in the Valley. Our Inquiries
were addressed to the prices at which goods
were sold over the counter under the Me
kinley tariff and the prices they are sold at
over the counter now under the new tariff.
We give below few of the articles in the
hardware line and the difference in the
prices:
The double barreled gun, hleech Loading,
sold last fall for $50, is sold this fall for SIG
The single barrel, muzzle loading slo:
gun, sold last fall at 81, is sold now at S.,
In anyils, the ''Peter Wright ''-consid
cred the best imported anvil-soId last fall
at IA cents apound, it is now sold at II cents,
making a difference in hundred pound
anvil-the usual weight-of s..
Table knives sold last fall at Sl25 Il set
are now sold at 81. Up in the fine knives
a s.. 50 set is now sold at S175-the fineI
the knives, the heavier is the tariff cut.
The $1.5O razor of last fall is sold this
fall at 81.
Inpocket cutlery. the pocket knife sold
at IS cents last fall is now sold at so cents
a $l.25 knife is now 81. and q 81 50 Ros-
els pocket knife is now sod at Sl75.
These are the reductions at which new
tariff cutlery, guns and anv!s-and othe.
things affected by the tariff, making lis
too long to give-are sold over the counte
in Staunton. If any OF our county friends.
Democrats, Republicans, Fopulists o.
Prohibitionists. have any doubt about the
the fact that a low tariff reduces the price
to TIE home consumer, they can call at the
Worthington Hardware Company store
here and try it.
The greatest delusion ever taught by
politicians is the Republican argument
that the foreign manufacturer pays the
tariff tax.
