A system has been put on foot which
promises to be of benefit to farmers who
wish to save money or to borrow mon
ey. A plan has been adopted similar to
that of the ordinary building and loan
association. An organization is formed
with shares at 500 each. Farmers and
others in a given neighborhood, men
and women, become members. The
share is payable in weekly or monthly
installments, as arranged. If money paid
in is sufficient, it may be invested in
ironclad securities, such as are employ
ed by saving banks If member wishes
to borrow money, he can do so by pay
ing interest and giving a real estate
mortgage. If at any time a member
must Withdraw his money, he can do so
by giving 30 to 60 days notice. He re-
oeives back all he has paid in, with &C.
crued profits, if there are any. This sys-
tenn promises we'll.

The London newspapers cannot point
an awful moral from the fate of Amer
ican railroads any more. The trouble
with railroads in the United States,
they were fond of saying, was reckless
running into debt and building beyond
present needs. Now that their own pet
Canadian Pacific road, heavily subsi-
died by government and meant to
draw Asiatic trade from the United
States, has allowed it's dividend day to
pass without showing up any dividends,
perhaps London editors will give US a
rest on the subject Of American rail
road mismanagement.

February BIRTHDAYS.

It has been duly impressed upon the
aninds of aspiring young people that
George Peabody, whose hundredth birth
day was lately celebrated because he
was philanthropist, began life as
grocer's clerk. 1t is hard to realize that
the man who became rich enough to
give away millions was in youth oblig-
ed to stir out Of bed at 4 O'Clock in the
morning and bang down the shutters
md wake all the neighbors; that he
and 80 wait up after 10 at night, and
with an aching back and sleepy eyes
carry down cellar the sidewalk display
Of prunes, potatoes and coffee Yet
such is the fact. George Peabody saved
his money and invested it so shrewdly
that after time he was able to make
other people get up at o'clock in the
morning for him, while he staid CON-
Portable in bed But it must be told
that Peabody never loved his native
country very much and that he remained
altogether in England during his later
years. lie gave money for benevolent
purposes as freely in England as in
America, which, to be sure, he had
perfect right to do.
But there is another American born
in the same month of February whose
birthday ought to be celebrated more
generally. He was not rich. All the
ed in his hole life would not amount
to million or the half of it. He ought to
be held up to bright American boys as
a model much moro frequently than has
been the fashion of late years. He be-
longed wholly to America. He is ours,
and ours only, and his name is George
Washington.

American Olive Culture.

Au Amer1Cau olive grower, VINO IN
vestigated the methods OF making oil
from this fruit in Europe, concludes
that the California methods of pressing
out and clarifying olive oil are superior
to those Of France, Spain and Italy, and
that they are the best in the world. He
says, '"To one accustomed to the sorupu~
lous cleanliness of oil mills in Califor-
nia, the filth Of European oil mill is
Emply shocking"
It required long time to learn the
right way Of oultivating olives and
pressing out oil in this country, but
American cultivators may congratulate
themselves that they have at length
found the best varieties to grow in
America and the best methods of put
ting up table olives and making the OIL
In general the large olives are for table
use and the small ones are best for OIL
If the American people knew the heal
ing and nourishing effects of pure olive
oil taken as food they would use hun
dred times as much of it as they now do
and American olive orchards would pay
to their proprietors handsome profits.
There are medicinal qualities in pure
olive oil that belong to no other article
Of food known. The American people as
race need moro fats and oils in their
food. The fats and oils they need cannot
be found in hog fat or beef suet, but in
pure, fresh butter and pure, fresh olive
oil.
The reason that we do not get the
beneficial effects we should from ordi-
nary table oil is that ordinary table oil
is made from cotton seed. The best and
highest priced olive oil, so called, that
comes from Europe to this country con-
tains only 25 per cent of pure olive prod
uct Tons of cottonseed oil are shipped
every year across to the merchants of
the European olive districts. They work
over the oil, mix it with as little Give
oil as possible and then reship it to this
country as pure olive oil.
COttOnseed OIL as salad dressing is
not unwholesome. 1t simply lacks the
nutritive and medicinal qualities of
olive oil. But it's use as an adulterant
has so brought down the price of the
pure article that the olive culturists are
in despair: In Europe beautiful old
olive orchards are being cut down, and
their place occupied by grainfields In
America the olive oil producers say they
have no objection to the sale Of cotton
seed oil, but they want it labeled by
law, like oleomargarine, for what it is
They are right, and their reasonable de-
mands ought to to granted. There are
enough people in America who are
willing to pay for the pure olive OIL

McSwegan's Funeral.

did not spend SO much on candles in

The mourners had refreshments at
the funeral to the amount of SIS. It
would have made McSwegan's eyes
bulge out with horror to have spent that
much for his friends refreshment dur

stances this old curmudgeon had far
more friends after he was dead than he
had had in his whole career while he
was alive. He did without the decen-
cies of life for 50 years in order that he
might leave $47, 1000 behind him and

A report from the department of agri-
culture shows that as a corn exporting
country Roumania is crowding ahead Of
the United States. For the year ending
July 81, 1894, Roumania supplied to
Great Britain 28,52O,OOO bushels,
while the United States supplied only
%, 755,00 Germany, on the other hand,
takes more corn from the United States
than from Roumania. Altogether last
year the United States supplied 46, 000,-
900 bushels Of corn to all the European
countries, while Roumania supplied 49,, .
000,0 900. Including Alaska, which does
not count for corn raising, the area of
the United States is over $780, 900
square miles, while that of Roumania
is only 46, square miles. But 1894
Was the worst corn year the United
States has had in a long time. 1t is not
likely, however, that this country will
in future export such large quantities of
either wheat or corn as she has done
heretofore. We shall use more and
more of these staples at home.

The Pacific EoilrGnd Debt.

By the acts of 1869 and 1864 con-
gress loaned to the companies UNDER
taking the construction of the railroad
from the Missouri river to the Pacific
coast $64, 100000. Besides that it grant
ed to them outright $4,000, 900 acres
Of land. Interest was to be paid on the
loan at 6 per cent. In return the gov
erument took a first lien on the proper
ty of the Pacific road. After the work
had been begun, however, it was found
that there was not money enough to
complete it. Then by another act of
congress the company was permitted to
raise money on their own corporation
bonds, The government agreed to take
back seat and give those who held the
con,pany's private bonds first lien on
the road, itself taking second lien.
That was more than 80 years ago.
Not ore-quarter of the interest has ever
been paid by the Pacific railroad COM
panies to the United States government
The loan, which at first was $64, OOO,-
900, is now swelled by interest to $685.
900, 1000. The companies overreached
the government, causing their contract
with the United States to be drawn in
such way that the government lien
only covers the main lines and not the
branches Of the roads. The govern
ment's second mortgage on the roads,
therefore, already amounts to twice as
much as the roads are worth, and there
is not the slightest prospect that it will
be paid. One proposition made is that
the government take possession of the
roads and operate them Or lease them.

WHY DON'T 1T woBBLE2
The Earth's Balance Must Have Changed
Since Columbus.

The Earth's Balance Must Have Changed
Since Columbus.
A New England scientist says there's
going to be dickens to pay if the rest
of the United States continues to cart
away granite and marble from the land
Of the Pilgrims and Puritans. 1T is
not unlikely" says he, chat the equil-
ibrium of the earth is already consid-
erably disturbed, and that we shall
shortly feel pronounced wobble. OF
course, if there is to be a wobble any
where we would prefer it in New Eng
land, but perhaps the outlook is not so
desperate as at first glimpse. The sum-
mer rush Of people to the White noun
tains, Bar Harbor, Newport, and
thousand other New England summer
resorts must In a very great degree
restore the weight which existed before
there were quarries in New England.
And there is another thing. 1t is COM
puted that there were in the Western
hemisphere, when Columbus set foot on
it, not more than 100000 human be-
ings. There are now, at very low
estimate, 1O1,OOO,OOO. These 100000
900 of additional persons have in
creased the weight of the western hem
isphere some 100000 of tons, in the
roundest of round numbers. Surely
there is an opportunity for a wobble
in this state of affairs, and we ought
to be conscious Of it by this time. If
there has been no wobble an explana-
ton should be demanded Some men
of science should rise to tell us why
we don't wobble. Nothing is more
dreadful, says the Buffalo Courier,
than the uncertainty when and where
the commotion will begin. Probably
only those who are holding to the car
straps at the time will keep their
feet
