The Tariff Bill.

first said that the republican senator's
would not attempt to delay the passage
OF the bill but after expressing their dis
approval in brief debate would permit
it TO 90 to q vote. 1t does not appear
az vet that there will be any organized
opposition for the purpose OF delay
merely, but that there will be such Or
Ranjzstion is becoming evident il it.
should become possible that by it the
defeat Of the bill could be accomplished.
Members Of the majority Of the house
ways and means committee assert that
the importations Of former years, while
beng the only basis upon which esti-
mates can be made, will not by any
means be o fair criterion for the actual
revenues under the Wilson bill. The
decrease of import revenues based on
the importstions Of 1893 was fixed at
about $75OOO,OOO, while the estimates
show that it will not in reality DO more
than S40,0OO,0O0. The values Of impor-
tations 10 1892 we're e8l3OOO,OO0, and in
1893, S844,000000 It is believed that
the decrease in 1894 will be very large
FOR the reason that until the new tariff
goes into effect every importer and buyer
will trv to dispose of present stocks and
buy as little abroad az possible, in order
10 take advantage of the reduced duty.
Tlis same reason is given by the ma
jority members OF the committee for the
belief that the revenues under the new
bill will be much larger than the figures
shown. The revenue from import duty
in 1893 was slO9,0OO,OO0, and it 10 be-
lieved that for 1894 the figure will be far
below that; in fact the present deficit
shows large falling off, due largely, 1t
is claimed, to the desire to take RdVant-
age OF the new bill.
Chairman Wilson of the ways and
means committee, who is looking up data
Dor his tariff speech, when questioned
regarding the treasury's condition and
the remedy, replied to-day: ave have
nothing before u.s.
"Do You regard the condition Of tie
treasury as seriousS"
sob, yes, there can DO no doubt as to
that, but the United States iS able to
take care OF its obligations. 1t Is not the
gold balance, which is below 100000, 900,
that need disturb US, but the ahortneoa Of
available cash TO meet obligations.
"The remedy is easy" said Mr.. Whit
ing, another member Of the committee
whose opinion was asked. "The govern
ment could issue s5000OOOO, or such
other amount as was necessary Of legal
tender treasury notes, redeemable in
gold. It would be the most popular
thing the governments could do. OF
course, not being interest bearing, it
would be called initiation. II we issued
the same amount Of interest bearing
notes or bonds 1t would suit large class
and be heralded as a Legitimate trsnsRo
tion. The banks want bonds"
"Bnt il the bonds were issued in small
denominations" said Mr.. Wilson, $50

had small amounts to invest there 10 no

Results of Subsoil Flowing.

The following letter, giving the
results of experiments with subsoil
blowing, was recently received by the
Secretary of Agriculture from Mr..
Peter Youngers, Jr., of Youngers &
Co., Geneva, Nebr., and is deemed of
sufficient interest TO warrant its COM
to the Agricultural press.
Mr.. Youngers writes as follows:
Having practised subsoil blowing
extensively on our nursery grounds
near Geneva in growing fruit and
trees with gratifying re-
suits, we concluded to experiment
with grain and vegetables.
The ground was prepared by subsoil
blowing in the fail of 1892 and the
crop of 1898 consisted of corn and
potatoes. Corn that year being only
a very moderate crop in this vicinity
(maxium forty bushels per acre, and
the average not exceeding twenty
bushels), we harvested a crop of
seventy-five bushels per acre from a
strip of ground that had been sub
soiled. The potato crop was practical
ly failure in this vicinity: the result
of our experiment was q good crop
about I25 bushels per acre.
This season Qs94) the crop consisted
of rye, oats, corn, and potatoes. Rye
harvested indicates yield of thirty
five bushels per acre, while rye in an
adjoining field-the same seed, plant
ing and harvest, but not subsoil-will
yield ten bushels per acre.
Oats ON land subsoil plowed in fall
of 1898 will yield forty to forty-five
bushels per acre; oats on land subsoil
plowed in fall of 1894 will yield thirty
TO thirty-five bushels per acre; oats on
land adjoining, under ordinary culti-
walton, will yield ten TO fifteen bushels
per acre (the average crop under the
adverse conditions that prevailed, in
each instance the seed, soil, and
planting being the same.
The superiority Of sub-soil cultiva-
tion is especially conspicuous in the
length Of straw and stand on the
ground.
The results of experiments with
this years corn and potatoes cannot
at this time be determined. With a
continuation of the present favorable
conditions we viii have the largest
Weld of corn we have ever had. Even
under these favorable conditions the
corn on subsoil plowed ground seems
to possess a special element of strength
that will, in all probability, exert it:
influence in demonstrating the value
of subsoil cultivation.

The First Railroads.


The first railroad in the United
States was probe ed by Gridley Bryant
civil engineer, in 1926. 1t was built
to convey granite from the quarries
at Quincy, Mass, to Tidewater. Its
length was four miles, and its cost
5 $1,000. The ties were of stone, placed
eight feet apart on the road-bed. On
rails of wood, six inches thick, wrought
iron plates three inches wide and a
quarter of an inch thick, were spiked.
The second railroad was built in 1927,
for hauling coal from the mines at
Mauch Chunk, Pa. The Baltimore
& Ohio was begun in 1928, and in 1880,
Peter Cooper, of New York, built the
first locomotive ever constructed in
the United States. In 1926 charter
was granted for the Mohawk & Hudson
railroad, ounite Albany and Science
tady, and in 1880 work was begun on
this road, which was the seed from
which has grown the magnificent New
York Central Road. Horses were the
original motive power used, but re-
ports being received from Europe of
successful trials of the locomotive
there, it was resolved to employ steam.
In August, 1881, the West Point
foundry of New York, completed and
delivered to the Mohawk & Hudson
company the Dewitt Clinton" the
first locomotive used in the state.
The chief engineer, in his preliminary
report to the projectors, did not ex-
pect that revenue would be derived
from any source except carrying
passengers, yet, being man of fore
sight, he thought it possible that
some freight might be offered, and so
suggested that the foundation ought
to be made very solid. There are now
215, 900 miles of railroad in our country,
having more than 1,500,0 cars and
locomotives, carrying annually nearly
SOC, 900, 900 passengers and 750,000,000
tons of freight. In the front rank of
companies in the West is the great
Burlington Route. A journey over
its lines always pleases, and whenever
possible you should secure tickets
reading via ''The Burlington" Apply
to your home ticket agent, or write
to w. j. G. Kenyon, Gen. Pass. Agent,
