reform movement which has swept over Bos-

him temporary notoriety. The first
to DO SO this session was Represent

A house to house canvass in eleven
districts OF New York city, conducted
by reporters of Ihe Nor'aiag i'd
certjSer, has shown that nearly twenty
six per cent of the names on the
Republican enrolment are fraudulent;
and that journal admits that if this
percentage should be sustained in the
remaining 1892 voting precincts of
the city the honest Republican enroll
ment would scarcely reach $1,000.
The moral is that New York Republi-
cans should quit clamorlng about
Tammany rascalities long enough to
take an introspective look, and then
apply the lesson ;nculcated by the
parable Of the beam and the mote.

The Farmers Dilemma.

The thing which man now specially
yearns for is the ability to spread the
blessings of life more evenly along
from year to year. Its either feast
or famine, deluge or drought. One
season, the farmers potatoes are so
small the hens won't scratch 'em up /;
next season they're as big az what the
hogs dream OF when they're most too
fat to snore. This year the corn crop
in Iowa is so tremendous that the
farmers will not haul it to market for
the paltry price it will bring. Only a
year ago they were selling corn at the
highest price in the history of Ameri-
can farming and feeding wheat TO the
hogs.

Grangers in Convention.


At last weeks session of the
Pennsylvania State Grange at William
sport the reports of the several officers
were read. The treasurer's report
showed that $4,000 had been receiv-
ed and $4,000 expended. The bal
ance of $I2, 900 has been invested in
bonds. One Of the most important
matters discussed was the delivery OF
mail in the rural districts, which is
strongly favored by the prominent
grangerS.
James C. McSparren, of Drumore
township, replied to the address of
welcome.
The Orderof Patrons Of Husbandry
was founded In Washington, d. c.,

the cause Of agriculture. For nearly
two years they wrought with energy,
until they completed well devised
scheme of organization based upon
ritual and four degrees for men and
four for women. The constitution
was adopted in 1867, aunder the name
of the National Grange of the Patrons
of Hushandry, with Master Saunders,
Lecturer Thompson, Treasurer See

elective officers. Duting the succeed

THE FUTURE OF FARMING

he report closes with a discussion
of The Future of Farms and Farm
Ing In the United States" in which
the secretary compares the indebted.
ness of the various classes of owners.
" These figures" he says, " show an
enormous and consistent Indebtedness
OF the banks and bankers alongside of
which the money in farm mortgages
and the debts owed by farmers are
relatively insignificant. The debts of
railroads, bankers, manufacturers and
merchants entitle them, and not the
farmers, to be called the debtor class
in America
in conclusion he says "The value
OF farm lands, being governed by the
relation OF the supply of those lands
to the demand for them, will therefore
steadily increase. The area or supply
remains stationary, or from careless
tlllage decreases. But the added
millions OF our population augment
and intensity the demand. Therefore,
the price OF farms must in the next
twenty years, and possibly in ten
years, advance more markedly than
those OF urban real estate. The own
ers of fertile fields, however, must
understand now that agriculture is
swiftly becoming a scientific profession.
The more the farmer cultivates his
mind the better and more prohtably
be can cultivate his fields. The de-
partment of agriculture has expended
during each of the last two years
greater per cent. of its appropriations
in the application Of science to farm.
ing, to correct tillage and fertilization
than ever before"

TIE FARMERS OF AMERICA
The Debts Of Farmers Insignificant When
Compared With Those OF Banks
aud CaGkers.

Secretary Of Agriculture Morton's
annual report contains the following:
Speaking of the export trade in
dany products OF the United States,
the report points out the fact that in
cheese the United States, while
large shipper to British markets, holds
the conspicuously unhattering rl'ce
in the extreme rear as to quAlit
price, and as the only one of the
petitors for this trade whose business
shows serious falling off.
This he attributes to The deteriora-
tion in the quality of American cheese
by aduteration with oleo and other
ingredients. In butter the United
States is out Of the race, supplying
less than per cent. Of the British
demand for foreign buffers. notwith-
standing the fact that Great Britain
imported in eight months $40, 1000, 900
worth of butter.
SAVED Bv WEATHER WARNINGS.
The work of the weather bureau
for the year cost $o7S,46o. 1t is
claimed that the warnings of cold
waves secured from freezing more
than $a,a75,ooo worth of perishable
agricultural products which otherwise
would have been lost
Speaking of the work of the divi-
sion of chemistry, Secretary Morton
makes the following vigorous protest :
"The people are frequently misled
by perverted references to the analy-
ses of this division by advertisers of
food products, etc, whose products
have been analyzed in the course of
investigations of food ldulteratons or
| other official work. In the hundreds
of advertisements that have been
noticed, in which the work If the di-
vision have been referred to, there is
scarcely a single case in which the
facts are accurately set forth as oiiici-
ally published. There is, therefore,
just reason for complaint. 1t seems
to the secretary of agriculture that
there should be some method adopted
by means of which the advertising
Misrepresentation of official analyses,
intended originally to protect the
people, could be prevented"
[ AMERICAN FRUIT ABROAD.
Among the more important var;e.
ties of fruit that have been introduced
by the division Of pomology are sixty
FIVE new specimens of figs, received
from the Royal Horticultural society,
of England. Other important impor-
tltlons 60 isisted of twenty. nine varie-
ties of the choicest apples of Austria
Hungary, which have been grated
upon seeding stocks for the purpose
of propagation. 1t is proposed to dis
tribute these trees TO the experiment
stations as soon as they are in proper
condition. Efforts have also been
made to introduce improved and
hardy varieties Of persimmous from
Northern China and the citron Of
commerce from Italy. During the
fiscal year there were shipped SiS,7Ir
barrels of apples abroad, valued at
S1,o545IS, and 7,I31S4a pounds of
dried apples, of the value of S46I,2t4.
The variety which has sold for the
highest price in British markets is the
Albemarle pippin, which is success
fully grown to its greatest perfection
in the state of Virginia. California
fruits made marked gains in European
markets during the year.
