FACTS FOR FARMERS.
Enormous Sums Paid Out for
Things That Should be
Raised at Home.

The South spends annually for
meat produced in other sections
over $50, 900, 600; for grain, horses
and mules raised beyond her bor-
ders, as much. Here is the enor-
nous sum of sIoo, 900, 600 paid out
by our people every year for things
that can be raised at home at less
than it costs in any of the states
from which these products are fur
nished. There is not farming
neighborhood in the South where
all these supplies cannot be raised
in greatest abundance and at larg-
er profit than was made ON ten
cent cotton. And it only requires
the determination on the part of
our farmers to do it, and thus save
keep at home-this enormous
sum of SIoo, 600, 900 every year,
which in a few years time would
make us the richest and most in
dependent agricultural people
on the globe.
The South in 1860, with popu-
lation 10, 900, 900 raised 35S, ,ooo,
900 bushels of corn, $4,000, 900
bushels of wheat, $1,000, 900
pounds of tobacco, 1S7, 200, 900
pounds of rice, GOO, 900, 900 pounds
of sugar. Last year with popu-
lation of about 20, 900, 900 or doub-
lie that of 1860, it raised 4S3, ooo,
900 bushels of corn; whereas, bas-
ed on increased population, the
South ought now to be producing

PRICES OF COTTON.
The Market Traced for Sixty
Seven Years.

The following figures show the
lowest price touched by cotton in
the New York market from 1926 to
1892, 1t will be seen that the
prices huctuate largely, going
down very low at different times.
The reader should bear in mind
that in 1S43 and along there when
cotton was worth five cents in the
New York market it was worth on
ly three cents on the farm, there
being a difference of two cents a
pound on account of transporta-
ton. In recent years, however,
improved railroad and steamship
facilities have reduced the differ
ence per pound to one cent. In
the light of this fact it will be seen
that the present season is by no
means the worst one in the histo-
ry of the country.

over 7I6, 900, 900 bushels of corn a
year.
Comparing the South's crops Of
1894 with what they should have
been, based on the yield of 1860,
taking into account the difference
in population, there was shortage
OF $4,000, 900 bushels of corn,
40, 900, 600 bushels of wheat, $40, :
600, 900 pounds of rice, 100000, :
900 pounds of tobacco, and GOO, :
600, coo pounds of sugar. About
the same rate of shortage existed
in other crops. Thus, basing an
estimate on what the farmers of
the South did in 1894, as compar-
ed with 1860, here is a falling off
from what they ought to have pro-
duced OF over $3.50, 900, 900, even
at the present depressed prices.

OF Messrs. Clark & McAdory in
I845, Uncle Dickey walked up to
me, and calling my given name,
said, 81 would not do that, your
awkwardness shows that you are a

an occurrence that caused a young
man the loss of his greatest desire.
There lived near me in my native
State, two men of great wealth,
each of them had one child, one
had daughter and the other a
son. After the heir and heiress
had completed their education and
returned home, the young man
soon obtained the young lady's
consent to marry him, provided he
would secure the consent of her ia
ther and mother. The young man
soon approached the father of the
girl, and asked him for his consent
TO his marrying his daughter. The
young man had stick in his hand
he commenced cutting or whiting
the'stlck, cutting off shavings. The
father of the girl carried the young
man through course of questions
about his course of studies, what
object he had in pursuing the
course of studies, how he was 60
ing to apply them, and what his
plans and purposes were in his fu-
ture business life. During this
time the young man had cut mis-
stick into chips and shavings. The
father Of the girl then said when
you first announced to me your de.
sire to marry my daughter, you
had in hand a nice piece of timber
that you did not make, and which
was capable OF being converted
into several kinds of articles, but
you have cut it into useless frag-
ments and destroyed both it's beau
ty and value. My daughter is to
me and her mother a precious Jew
ell. You commenced whiting that
stick with the beginning of your
talk, and protracted the ques-
tions asked to see what you would
make of lit, and YOU have cut it
into SO many fragments that you
can never gather them up and put
them in place as they were. You
have not only wasted this space of
time, but have destroyed part of
what you possessed when you first
approached me; therefore, | de-
cline to consign to your care the
person and happiness of my daugh-

MAXWELL'S GREAT RECORD
Fourth Assistant Postmaster
General as a Filler of Offices.

Washington, April 22.-Those
who Imagine that a large percent.
age of the appoirtive offices are
still held by Republicans who
should be removed to make room
for those in accord with the admin.
lstratlon do not take statistics into
consideration. There are about
$4,000 fourth class post offices with
salaries ranging from 2 cents tc
81 900 per year. The number of
appointments made up to April
since Cleveland's second Inaugural
ton is "a, 4,005. This gives Max
well record greater bv 10000
than that made during the same
period Of Cleveland's first term by
Fourth Assistant Postmaster Gen.
eral Stevenson, and is a greater re-
cord by 5000 than that made by
Mr.. Clarkson.
When it is considered that about
two. titths Of the fomth-class offices
are practically Interchangeable on
political grounds, the revenues Of
such offices in many cases not ex-
ceeding SO per year, it will be
seen that the present adminlstra.
tion is phenomenal one. The
number of Offices available for dis.
tribution, taking two-tifths of The
fourth class Offices as not worth ap-
plying for, would be $4,000. As
"a, 600 changes have been made in
two years, there remains but abou,
5,6OOl more removals to make
during the remaining half of Mr.
Cleveland's incumbency.
OF the Presidential Offices there
are but $500, and about 1926 ap
pointments have been made by
this administration. This vii
leave Mr.. Wilson about 475 con
tests to settle. There may be ;
few designations or deaths, bu
these have been rare in the past.
Few people understand the diff
culties in the way of making {
clean sweep all at once. If there
was never but one candidate for ;
place this would be simple mat
ter, but when it is considered tha
in the filling of every office there
are a number of factions that mus
be conciliated, records examined
and conflicting claims looked into
it becomes an exceedingly difficul
matter to make these changes rap
idly.

posed to the 16 to l silver
coinage question had a meeting to-

proclamation to the Democrats
of Texas to stand by the national

question Was considered and deem
ed advisable, but final action was
deferred until tomorrow night. The
proclamation as draughted sets
forth that
"Whereas, There is now in the

belief that all those who are of

The most interesting piece of foreign news this week is the pas sage by an overwhelming majority in the German ReichstaS of a reso- lution looking to an International .bimetallic conference. The Reich stag, or Imperial Diet, is the most numerous legislative body. It stands for the German nation and is com posed of 397 members. The Bundles rath, or Federal Council, with fifty eight delegates, represents the indi- vidual State of the Empire. It is, as general rule, the confirming branch. The work of both in legis- lative matters may, however, be annulled by the Emperor. There is certainly much significance in the action of the diet, produced, as it must be, by the interests of com merce, and not by silver miners; and in view of such proceedings abroad there is the more reason for a tenn perate andsconservative course by the people of the United States.

MANY others besides the people of Illinois will endorse the action of a legislative committee of that State recommending steps to abolish dis tilling slops as food for COWS. Inves- tigation shows that in all cities where there are distilleries and breweries, so-called 'dairies" arc es tablished which are nothing but nasty, ill-ventillated, foul-smelling stables, the cows never being per mitted to browse on grass or to eat anything but the refuse of stills and watts. In the nature of things, the cattle cannot remain healthy, and their milk must be diseased. Every philanthropic and sanitary reason suggests war on these stump-tail es- tablishments.
