The proposal of Kaiser William t.
make the peanut liberal portion of
the German soldiers rations has an
unusual interest for American farmers,
maintains the American Farmer.
First, it is something that there is a
fair margin of profit on, which there
is not on wheat and corn sold abroad.
Second, we would not have, for the
present at least, the destructive com.
petition of Russia and Argentina.
But We fear that just as soon as the
Kaiser's saldaten begin to eat peanuts
in considerable quantities, he will or
der the German colonies in Africa to
go into peanut raising. Anyway, it
will be some years at least before they
can produce as good and cheap pea
nuts as we can raise in the South.

The western part of Kansas, it is
said, has been losing its population
rapidly within the past few years.
Twenty-Five counties, which in 1883
contained a population of 1926
souls, now have but 54,663, This ex-
odus has been due to the long and de-
structive droughts, to which the re-
gion is subject; and the farmers who
remain are still setting up windmills
and endeavoring by their help to If.
rigate their fields. The loss of popu.
lation has not been SO marked, how
ever, in the farming districts as in the
towns. All along tle railroads are

ing population, and promised a great

Spreckels' representatives here have
signed . contract with John Rosenfeld'a
Sons, shipping merchants, by which the
Rosenfelds will carry raw sugar from
this port around Cape Horn to New
York at the rate Of $3.50. -Four hundred
tons OF sugar have already been placed
on the ship r. D. Rice, which is ready
to sail, and all Rosenfelds' ships here
after will carry 500 to 1000 tons. It is
estimated that 30, 600 tons of raw sugar
will be shipped in this manner and re-
fined in New York. This means q loss
Of about $1,000, 600 to this city. as the
cost of refining is not less than $50 ton,
represented in coal, ships, wagons and

the Spreckels have carried the refined
sugar from here to Mississippi river
points at IS cents q hundred, but the
Spreckels company now claims it is
cheaper to ship raw sugar around the
Horn, refine it in New York and reship

in state of mutiny. Two Of them have
been discharged fro n the home for dis
orderly conduct. Commandant Dimfel
has been arrested for assaulting q vet

to keep the veterans from squandering
their money in saloons. The saloon
keepers who reap rich harvest from
the soldiers every month are backing
the mutineers in their fight and 1853 Of

WASHINGTON, Jan. l8.-The ways and

feat during the day, when, by vote Of
liz to 102, the committee Of tho whole
rejected Mr.. Wilson's amendment fixing
tho date on which free wool should 60
into effect on Aug. 1, 1894, and adopted
the substitute of Mr.. johnson, the Ohio
free trader and single taxer, making it
go into effect Immediately on the pas
sage Of the bill. Many of the Repub-
licans voted with the radical Democrats
for the substitute.
It was Mr.. Wilson's intention, had his
amendment prevailed, to have offered
an amendment making the wooden sched-
ule go into effect Dec. 1, 1894, but
When the Committee Overruled Him,
he decided to let the latter schedule
stand and go into effect with the rest of
the bill in June, 1894. Just before the
vote was saken Mr.. Wilson stated that
the jobbers were now hesitating to place
their orders for fall goods here or
abroad, and if the committee amend
ment carried the home manufacturers
would make next falls goods.
Only one other amendment was acted
onto allow the free entry in bond of
machinery as. we'll as the materials used
in the construction of ships built for
foreign account. The rest Of the day
was spent discussing the amendment of
Mr.. Burrows to substitute the print
