duties by certain foreign counties. If these
countries would take American wheat ana
the poor quality of the European wheat,
then the farmers interest III the SUBJECT
might not be quite great, but the facts
are not such. The millers OF this country
through the Winter Wheat Milers' League,
an organization formed for the exclusive
purpose of extending the markets for Amer
lean -four have asked congress to enact
retaliatory laws whereby the Injuries, pur-
chased only by our rich, coming from the
countries maintaining high tariff duties
against American flour, might be charged q
double duty until they were willing by re-
ciprocal treaties to allow our -four to enter
their markets on a more equitable basis.
Notwithstanding the fact that every barrel
of flour exported represents four and hall
bushels of wheat, congress at lis last seS.
sion refused this request and passed Dill
in which many OF these Injuries We're placed
on even a lower rate of duty. The millerS
further asked that the reciprocity feature
of the then existing tariff law be allowed
to remain i'm force. This was also disregard
ed and n result Spain has abrogated her
reciprocity treaty with the United States
as TO Cuba and Brazil has given notice That
her treaty will be abrogated January ISL,
next. To Cuba, the mills Of this country
shipped last year nearly 100000 bushels oil
flour, where scarcely any had been shipped
before the treaty was effected. The amount
shipped to Cuba last year exceeded the
amount shipped the previous year by S0,OVO
barrels. TO Brazil was exported $4,000 bar
reis, an increase over the year before OF
100000 barrels. Spain has already advanced
from 81 per barrel TO $i75. or "a cents higher
than from any other country. Brazil Will
restore her old duty which equal 10 q
prohibition. The mills have thus lost mar
ket which would have taken this year over
100000 barrels of flour. Figuring this at
four and > half bushels to the barrel we
find n loss to the American farmer of a
market for fully gOO0O00 bushels OF wheat
Further than this, the -four shipped TO those
markets was all made from winter wheat
no spring wheat flour going there.
II is n well known tact that neither Of these
countries have -four mills. SO that market
is absolutely lost TO the winter wheat far
mer Tor that mucn wheat. IN face Of these
facts. is il any wonder that wheat remains
al the present low price, Congrce men
should be committed 10 extend tn markets
for American nour. That the surplus
wheat we have can be worked or best
through the min is sclf-evident from facts
given above. Therefore, il seems as If the
farmers should be with the miiler5 ON auch
a proposition.

Into this waste Of crime and misery the
women OF the Mis- sionary Society went. They

turned Il into a mission. A year later Il was
demolished and upon its site was erected the

The work OF the society was from the first a
battle with the worst element OF the city's
