sBrother Harvey, In Mondays de-
bato ron stated that owing to the re-
sumption Of specie payments from 1879
- 1870 the silver legislation OF 1873
did NOT affect the prices very much
until 1879. TO measure the effect Of
silver legislation then upon the farmer
! Will compare the Ave years from 1875
% 1879 with the last Ave years, from
1870 TO 1894.
II will use the home value Of the
crop Of the value Of the same to the
farmers, and begin by using material
Furnished BY the agricultural depart
ment and summarized In the statisti-
cal abstracts for al the years except
ing the last two years. ! win begin
With the largest and most important
crop Of the land, q crop which is worth
more to the producers than any other
two. / refer to corn. In the Eve years
1876 to 1873, there were raised in the
United States an average annual crop
% l,176,7l5,OW bushels, for the five
pears . total Of e2,533,220,162 in cur
rsncy. That is an average Of 36.S cents
abushel in currency or 36 cents in
gold
Mr.. Harvey-"Mr. Horr, won't you
treat us fairly and compare the crop
Of 1872 with the crop Of 1894 instead Of
mixing the figures up in that uay?'
Nh. HoRR TAXES HIS STRAIGHT.
Mr.. Horr--T will give you those that
have prepared. don't mix anything
Il II just rs straightforward as it can
be.n
Mr.. Harvsy-sYou con get It from
the book here on the table,
Mr.. Horr-.Wsll, wait. Don't you
want me to run this thing as I like, OF
40 you want me to run It entirely to
suit youi uAughtsr.) He sees Whist Is
coming, and he's In trouble, you know.
II 1850 OF. ls94 they : raising an
nually on an average Of 1y6o2,170ye57
bushels, with . total value Of $685.
964.Oe8 for the i've years which IL AL
rents per busheL Here 10 m advance
n gold Of IL cents per hushel between
ths two years. Nov, In tho same
period IN Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana
Mississippi and Texas the average
eold value Of corn fell from 63.5 cents
q 563 cents, or 50 cents q bushel. In
New York, New Jersey.and Pennsyl-
vania the price advanced from 16
cents . bushel. For several Western
states west Of the Mississippi river the
pricesadvsnced from 81 cents to l4.1
esnts, an advance Of IL cents on q bu-
ahel In those states. From these sum-
maries It can be seen that the average
value per bushel advanced since 1876.
although some farmers gained the
larger share Of the advance and some
n certain sections raw the value Of
their CoF d~epreCiate. Now In my
NEXT talk / will take mp oats.
