HELPING THE WHIsKEY TRUST
The special Washington correspond
ence Of the Press says that the mon
grel tariff bill will make a gift of from
$60,000,000 to $7O,0O0,000 to the
whiskey trust. This is done, first, by
allowing the trust to take out under
present rates Of duty the 200, 000,0 900
gallons now in bond and sell it at the
advance of twenty cents per gallon
permitted by the increased duty; and
second, by extending the bonded pc
riod to eight years instead of three ;
thus giving the trust five years inter-
est on future deferred payments. The
first privilege is worth $4O,000,00O +;
the latter from $20,000,000 to $780,
100000. If there is anything the
great trusts want and don't see in
the mongrel bill, they have only to
ask for it. If any special privileges
for monopolies have been left out it
has been because of an oversight on
the part of Democratic managers

A BIC CELERY FARM.-There is a
great celery farm near the Delaware
river, about 80 miles from New York
city. Last year the owner had 1000
acres in celery, and employed 40 men
through the entire season, raising
100000 punches of celery, the most
of which was sold in New York. At
times when the market there is over
stocked, the surplus crop is used in
making certain celery compounds.
As he has several thousand acres, he
usually adds from 80 to 100 acres to
his celery field each year. No other
crop is grown with the celery, and all
the labor is devoted to that crop.
The land is a deep rich, swamp land,
shirh he bought and drained eight
or ten years ago, the soil is black as
ink, and thus far showing no need of
fertilizer, but apparently growing
richer or yielding heavier crops each
year. This land is laid in bays or
beds 80 feet wide by $50 feet long,
divided by deep bitches which carry
the drainage into the Delaware river.
1t is plowed as early as it is dry
enough-and kept free from weeds.

New Bicycle Rules for the Road.

We are informed that a general
meeting of all the French cycling
clubs is to be held shortly for the
purpose of drawing upa code of rules
for foot passengers, which is after
ward to be submitted for approval
TO the public authorities. We have
been permitted to examine the first
draft of this remarkable scheme,
which is worded as follows:
Whereas, The number of cyclists
is on the increase, and as a natural
consequence the number of pedes-
trians is constantly increasing;
Whereas, The cyclists will shortly
be in the majority; and
Whereas, The minority ought to
submit, it is hereby enacted that:
ARTICLE Every pedestrian is to
be supplied with a bell and signal
horn, which he shall sound on cross
ing a street whenever be spies a cycle
on the horizon.
Art. 2-At night the foot passen-
ger shall carry on his breast a Ian
tern containing lighted taper.
cart. 3-Any foot passenger who,
by his awkwardness and want of at
tention, shall occasion the fall of a
cyclist by simply allowing himself to
be run over, shall be liable to a fine
of 80 to 100 francs; after a repeti-
ton of the offence he shall be trans
ported to a mountain region.
cart. 4-Frauce shall be entirely
leveled in order to save cyclists the
annoyance Of bill climbing.

champs are to be abolished and the
site transformed into summer eye

STAY EAST, YOUNG MAN.-NO; the
Eastern farmer need not go to Cali
fOrnia to better his estate. Here, at
the worst, the farmer can get q living
out of his farm, he is always sure of
that, and something more, even in
bad times. But a man and his fam
lily can't live on fruit, and if the frost
cuts off his crop, or he cannot get
enough money out of it to pay pX-
penses and buy the necessities of life,
as more than one grower told me it
was hard work to do he would GER
tainly be in q bad fix. There are GER
tain circumstances that may justify
a farmer from the east in taking up
a California fruit ranch. He may
want to 90 to that coast on account
of his health or that of some member
of his family; but he should not buy
place there unless he has a moder-
ate income left after paying for the
ranch. Farm help is scarce and high
priced, and he should not only be able
to do part OF the work himself, but
should have boys who would turn in
and help. Under ordinary circum-
stances, however, the eastern farmer
is much better off where he now is
and he may consider himself lucky in
these times in living where he can
produce on his own land a great
share of necessities required by him

THE Book OF THE FAIR.-Surh u

SQUIRRELS AS FARMERS HELPs.-A
naturalist, after summer spent in
studying squirrels, said: 1T was
found that about 80 per cent. of the
contents of the stomach of the strip
ed squirrel consisted of injurious in
sects, and among the rest were cut
worms, web and wire worms and
grasshoppers; as high as fifty cut
worms and web worms we're found in
a single squirrel. From the stom-
achs examined, it was estimated that
on an average a squirrel would eat
$500 of these cut worms aud web
worms from the first of April to Au-
gust, aside from other noXiOus in
sects. The striped squirrel should be
especially protected on meadow and
pasture land, and if some way can
be found to prevent their taking corn
they will be found very useful in the
cornfield in destroying the cut worms.
| have very often noticed that the
squirrels do not dig deep enough
about the hills of corn to reach the
kernels, in which case it is probable
that cut worms or web worms were
the coveted morsels, and not the
corn.

SOME Big PASTURES. Texas has
some large cattle ranches, notable
among them being the Mattadore
with over 100000 acres, the Espi-
nella with 100000 acres, and that
of the Capitol Syndicate, which EN-.
braces 100000 acres. The largest
is that of the Y II. Cattle company.
1t begins with the Colorado line and
extends several counties back this
way. The Fort Worth & Denver
railroad runs through it. Some idea
of it's size may be gathered from the
fact that the regular night express
train enters on the south side of the
pasture at 11.05, and, after continu-
ously running, leaves it at 800 next
morning. A pasture which it takes
an express train three hours and a
quarter to cross would be considered
large in some countries.

who undertook to run the town last
week were given such a reception by
the citizens as to efectually discour-
age them.
The bottom of the strike has fallen
out. The effort to bring about a
general sympathetic strike was a
, complete failure. The orders OF
Grand Master Workman Sovereign
were obeyed by only a few of the
Knights, and the members of the
trades unions generally saw too
clearly that their places would be
eagerly taken by idle men and there
fore were not anxious to risk their
own welfare in support of a cause
fOredoomed to failure.
Abraham Lincoln's first speech on
the tariff question was short and to
the point. He said that he did not
pretend to be versed in politicalecon-

TO know that when an American
paid twenty dollars for steel to an
English manufacturer, America had
thu steel and England had the twenty
dollars. But when he paid twenty
dollars for steel to an American man
ufacturer, America had both the steel
and the twenty dollars" That was
the sum and substance of the tariff
question as he viewed it.
