THE SMALL FARM.

We recommend the following, which
We find in the Irrigation Age, to the
attention of farmers:
The little farm has proved and will
prove the cernerstOne-and also the
basement, side walls and mansard roof
of irrigation. There will be men
who can successfully conduct a bonanza
farm under irrigation just as there are
Marshall Fields in trade, Jay Goulds
in railroad assimilation and PulitZers
in the newspaper business; but their
numbers will be about in like proper
tion to the mass of irrigation farmers
as are the phenomerally successful to
the rank and file in other industries
The mass of those who succeed to their
own satisfaction and to the good of the
community in irrigation farming, will
be those who do thorough work upon a
small tract. 1t is a sort of situation
where a little farm we'll titled" must
be the rule if success is to follow effort.
"Oue of the strongest proofs of the
wonderful administrative ability of
brigham Young is the fact that he
limited the farm unit, under irrigation
to twenty acres. He placed the limit
high enough, and the result of fifty
years. practical working have abund-
antly proven the wisdom of his regula-
tions in this regard. 1t would be well
if people would accustom themselves
to contemplating irrigation farming on
such basis-the bas is of the quantity
of land a man can handle for himself
Little beginnings, small areas in
tensely cultivated, small investments
of cash until experience justiies
branching out by safe degrees, these
are some of the small things which
ought to be considered at their true
value in the work of making homes by
the help of irrigation. They will aid
very greatly in achieving success

IT HAS been evident for some time
that Apaism was part of republican
ism, and now comes w. J. 81. Tray
nor, national president of the Ameri-
can Protective Association, with a let
ter to the order saying that the great
republican victory throughout. the
country is really theirs, and congratu-
lating them. He claims eight A. Z. a.
Congressman out of twelve from Mich
igan, besides half of the legislature
and nearly all of the state officers. In
other states he claims the election of
a. p. A. members. The republican
party, born in haste. nourished upon
bigotry and kept alive by prejudice, is
the proper companion of this unpa
triotie zation.-Lswrence Ga
zette.

Eastern manufacturers of spool cotton
have concluded that they will be forced
out of business IL the Wilson bill be-
comes a law. Recent statistics show
that with duty of seven cents per
dozen. English manufacturers of this
commodity have increased their exports
to the United States more than 100000
dozen since the Mckinley bill went into
operation. from which 1t is apparent
that they have found some method
whereby they can still sell at a profit
In competition with the manufacturers
in this country. But 1t is proposed to
reduce the duty on spool cotton to ~
cents a dozen. or one-flfth of a, cent
per spool. AS the English manufacture
ers are able to sell their goods in the
markets of this country at the present
higher rate of duty the proposed reduc-
tion WILL of course, enable them tc
secure our entire trade at a good profit
to themselves. but 1t will effectually kin
the American industry unless the labor
employed in our cotton mills will agree
to a reduction of Sc per oeat in wages,
which is the difference between the
preaest and the proposed tariffs.

A
Revolution

has been brought about by the
introduction of CoTToLENE. the
new vegetable shortening. The
discovery Of this product, and the
demonstration Of its remarkable
qualities, has attracted the widest
interest. Hitherto the common
shortening has been lard, OF
indifferent butter Every one las
probably suffered occasional dis
comfort from lard-cooked food;
while it is well known that thous-
ands are obliged to abstaincntire-
ly from everything Of that kind
To such people, CoTToLENE is Of
peculiar VA z, widening as it
does. the Ange Of what may be
eaten and enjoyed. CoTToLENE
is a cooking marvel, 1t confines
with the food-imparts to it a
tempting color, delicate flavor,
and an appetizing crispness.
No trace of greasiness remains
to offend the taste, or disturb the
digestion,
CoTToLENE is worthy of the
careful notice Of all those who
value good food, Of itself or for
its hygienic properties.
