On Deck, as Usual.

The National Wool-Growers' Association,
an outfit of antique origin and whose
motto reads, Especial protection to a few,
to the bow-bows with everybody else," or
words to that effect, is on deck at Washing
ton. This outfit is always ON deck in the
vicinity of the national capital when con-
gress is in session. 1t has grown gray and
wrinkled pacing the said deck and bowling
for more protection on wool. With this
gang of special privilege seekers the sheep
industry has always been suffering for more
protection on wool. The sheep industry
was deep in the mire of protection under
the tariff act of 1893, according to this tear
full gang and, under the Mckinley tariff,
when the duty was II to IL cents per pound
on first and second class wools, this woody
aggregation found the sheep business para
lyzed for want of sufficient protection.
Even now, when mutton is the first consider
alton and wool secondary issue in the
sheep industry but with the tendency of
fluctuations in the values of wool upward,
this moss grown, mildewed outfit is In
washington, arrayed in sack cloth and
ashes, going up and down the streets dis
mally moaning "restore the tariff on wool
and save few of us from utter destruction''
A beautiful phase of the pres ent lachrymose
Pecksniffisn effort of the Wool Growers
association is the fact that it is totter-
ing hand INLAND with the wooden manu-
facturers, who alone are the benefciaries of
high wool tariff, This dual aggregation
might as we'll make its prayer to congress
read: "Protect and enrich the wooden
manufacturers and make wearers of woolen
clothes pay the bill" for, boiled down, that
is what it amounts to. Rob the laborer,
the poor man, to enrich the wooden manu.
facturers, has been the sum and substance of
the wool tariff ever since it was first promul-
gated. Chicago Stockman.

wooLY Hoss PROBLEM.
Has been Pretty Thoroughly
Discussed Everywhere.

The Van Vert Bulletin of Tuesday says:
The Bulletin recently published the follow
ing problem: IA man sells horse for $50.
He then buys him back for $40 and sells
him again for 800. What did he gain in the
transaction?" This question was thorough
ly discussed in many localities. Alta west
side grocery counter was covered with
crackers by persons who used them to
demonstrate their theory of the transaction.
In Jamestown, in York township, the dis
putants met at a school house and used
sheets of brown paper to represent ten
dollar bills, in their demonstrations. After
wrangling several hours without, an agree
ment they appointed committee of three
teachers to solve the problem and report at
an adjourned meeting. Many have OBJ
tained the answer $40, while others make it
$50. Thirty dollars is correct. The men
tion of the original price is misleading.
Not knowing tt cost it must be assumed
that $50 was the value of the animal. The
owner having sold him and pocketed the
money, now begins an independent trans
action, buying horse for $40 and selling
him for $1O0. The profit is evidently $50.
The solution given by those who make the
answer $40. when properly igrred gives the
same result. Thus: Selling the horse for
$50 and re-purchasing for $70the speculator
makes $40. He then sells ngain for 800,
making net total of $11O received for the
horse. But by the terms of the problem the
horse is orth $50. He has then parted
with property worth $50 for $11O, and his
profit in the transaction is the difference OIL
$50.

FOSTERS WEATHER BULLE-
TIN.
Fluctuating Temperature In
The Month of January.
Especial to The Bee.)

ST JOSEPH, Mo-, Dec. 21.-MY last
bulletin gave forecasts of the storm
waves to cross the continent from
21st to 25th and 27th to 31st.
The next disturbance will reach the
Pacific coast about January 1, cross
the west of Rockies country by close
of I'd, the great central valleys Sd to
5th, eastern states 9th.
This disturbance will culminate the
first period of moderate temperatures
in January, and following it will be
about two weeks of low but fluctuat-
ing temperatures. Then again will
come two weeks of moderate temper
atures eliminating in the highest
temperatures about 27th to 2S west
of the Mississippi and Goth and 30th
futher east.
The warm wave will cross the west
of Rockies country about January l.,
greatcentral valleys Sd, eastern states
9Th. Cool wave will cross the west OF
Rockies country about January 4,
great central valleys 9th, eastern
states Sth.
This disturbance will not cause gen.
eral precipitation, but will inaugurate
a long period of heavy SHOWS and
rains which will average heaviest for
January east of the Rockies and
south of Denver, st. Louis, Cincin-
natl and Washington, extending to
the northern states the last of the
month and in February.
By the close of February the whole
United States will be in good condi-
tion as to rainfall, but March will in
augurate a dry period for large por-
tions of the country. April and May
will cause serious drouths in places to
such an extent, at least, as to make it
advisable not to put in certain crops,
for the drouth illsurely make them
Improbable.
Others localities will have too much
rain. The crop season of 1896 had q
general deficiency of rain, but it will
not be that way in 1896. Large sec
tions will have too much, other large
sections a deficiency, so that for the
whole country about an average rain
fall may be expected.

Gated lady, whose gardener, coachman

en- as politicians would destroy the peace
of the domestic circle, it is universally
conceded that family life is infinitely
richer and more attractive to men when
politics are not tabooed On account Of
the ignorance or Indifference of the fe-
male members of the household.
In questions of intellect women have
proved themselves able to cope with
men. Let justice then be done to both.
Our ruler is a queen, yet still poll

let justice triumph over prejudice and
hypocrisy.

WARNING TO FARMERS.
Ravages of a Corn Worm.
A Comparatively New Pest in
Ohio.

A number of farmers residing in
the south part of the county report
that during the past season their
corn crops and those of some of their
neighbors' were injured by what is
known as the Western corn root
worm. The pest is described as fol-
lows: A small white worm scarcely
half an inch in length and of the
thickness of a pin attacks the roots
of corn and in dry season sometimes
completely ruins the crop. These
worms later in the season develop
into small green bugs resembling in
form the striped bugs so injurious
to cucumbers, squashes and pump
kins, these in turn cut off the silk
thus preventing the fertilization of
the grain.
The pest is said to subsist on the
corn plant alone so that rotation of
crops will prevent its ravages, or ex-
terminate them where they have
done any damage.
The farmers above referred to,
finding corn to be the most profitable
crop for them to raise, have planted
the same fields every year for several
years with the above results.
The Ohio Agricultural Experiment
Stations report for 1892 warned the
farmers of Ohio of the coming of
these insects into the state from In
diana, and the report of 1894 presents
a diagram showing them to have
spread over the entire western part
of Ohio. We would advise the
farmers of Henry county not to plant
corn on the same fields more than
twice in succession. We also believe
that the insects have been doing
damage and establishing themselves
unobserved in many parts of the
county.

The Valentine Theatre-ToledO's
Palatial Play House, the Finest
in America, to be Opened
Christmas Night.

Christmas night, Wednesday, Dee. 25th,
will mark an event iu the history of Toledo
that will be matter for copgratuIatiou spon
the part ofits citizens as well as the pespIe
Of the surrounding country. References h
had to the opening of the new valentfae
theatre, built at enormous expense and
under the personal supervision of its owner,
Mr.. George 81. Keteham. one of Toledo's
wealthiest and most progressive capitalists,
and whose enterprise has been a prominent
factor in the phenomenal growth of Toledo
and the development CT its commercial in
terests. Mr. Ketcham announced, more
than year ago. that he would build
theatre that, when finished, would be the
finest and best equipped in the United
States. Considering the advancement. in
the last decade, in theatre Building and the
many play houses famous for their mag
nifcence it will be understood that Mr..
Ketcham's undertaking was of considerable
magnitude. Before beginning the con-
struction of the new theatre he visited every
important city in America and the old
world for the purpose of stadying the best
features Of the best theatres and the result
OF his research and more than years work
OF a small army of workmen is the marvel
ously beautiful palace that will be dedi-
Gated to the amusement of the citizens of
Toledo and the surrounding country on
Christmas night by that grand old actor
and pride of the theatrical profession, Mr..
Joseph Jefferson. Amy description of the
Valentine would SO meagrely convey any
idea of its magnifcance that it would be
wasted effort and it will not be attempted in
view of the fact that the low holiday ex.
cursion rates on all the railroads will offer
favorable opportunities to our readers to
visit Toledo and see the finest and most
thoroughly fre-proof theatre in America,
and which will present during the seatson a
continuous succession Of the high class
successes in the standard drama, opera,
burlesque, spectacular and comedy with
sprinkling here and there of foreign artists
and celebrities. On the opening night Mr..
Jefferson will present his, new historical
characterization of Rip VanWinkie, and on
Thursday night will be seen as Caleb Plum
mer in "rhe Cricket on the HEARTH and
Golightly in "Lend Me Five Shillings."
Following Mr.. Jefferson on Friday and
Saturday, Dec. 9th and 2sth. the eminent
comedian Mr.. VIM. Il, Crane will appear,
presenting on Friday night and Saturday
matinee ''His Wife's Father" and on
Saturday night his great success "The

three Truths for the Farmer.
PhilAdelphia Record. ]

u -hA@o0tPuAa RcCoto-l
If the American farmer will consider
this matter calmly and without prejudice.
he will become conscious of three truths.
First, that tariff is levied for protection
because the production of srch things can be
and has been limited by the trusts and
combinations which have monopolized
their manufacture. Second, that it can
add nothing to the price Of what he sells,
because 1t is not within power of any pos
sible combination of farmers to limit a9ri-
cultural production, and ths price of the
surplus must necessarily regulate the price
of all. Third, that the only possible outlet
for this surplus is to be found in foreign
markets; and protective tariff hinders its
sale in those markets, because in order to
be protective it must forbid rhe acceptance
of the only things that foreigners have TO
give in exchange.
