Australian Live Stock Promises
to BecOm4 a Formidable
competitor
For the Place Occupied by the
United States in the Worlds
Markets.
Claimed the Cheapness of Forage
Will Compensate for Differ
ence in Freight.

WASHINGTON, Oct. "A most for
midable competitor of the United States
for the control of the European cattle
markets has arisen in Australia, and, in
a specia, report to the state department,
United States Consul Bell at Sydney
gives much valuable information of the
present con litions and future prospects
of the inuustry of cattle raising in that
country. He shows that New South
Wales and Queensland where the in
dustry fourishes, have about 10 times as
much land fer cattle feeding as the
whole state of Iowa. While much Of
this land is SO scantily supplied with
natural water as to greatly limit live
stock operations, the government has
come to the rescue, and by successful
experiments in artesian well boring has
vastly extended the possibilities of the
industry. One well alone supplies
5000, 900 gallons of water daily. The
land is very cheap. At present prices
cattle can be raised in Queensland at a
profit on their hides alone. In that col
ony there are 100000 head of cattle
and 2 800, 900 in New South Wales The
people have nearly
Twenty Head OF Cattle Per Capita.
For several years there has been a
considerable export business in frozen
and preserved meats, but cattle raisers
are reaching out for the livestock trade
and number Of shipments have been
made to Europe. Fattened cattle at
export points are worth $2l per head,
freight is $40 and time of voyage to
Europe from 40 to so days. Average
weight is 1000 pounds per head and the
cattle gain in weight ON the voyage.
The consul says that while the cattle
raisers Of the United States have the
advantage of from 5000 to 10000 miles
in distance, still, with cheaper pro-
duction or first cost and lowering of
freights, If the Australian trade becomes
well established, the saving in distance
by the American shipper will hardly
Offset the Australian advantage and the
latter could place well fattened, 1900
pound cattle averaging better in quality
than the best in the United States in
the London market more cheaply than
they could be brought from any other
part Of the globe. OF course, he says
there there is as yet an ''if'' in all these
calculations.

REMOVED \ BOUNDARY POST.
Charge Against q Liquor Dealer on t
Canadian Line.

Charge Against q Liquor Dealer on the
Canadian Line.
WASHINGTON, Oct. An extraor-
dinary case of removing neighbor's s
landmarks" has been brought to the at
tention of Attorney General Harmon.
The landmark in question is, in fact,
the boundary line between the United
States and Canada at Malone, N. Y.
The facts, as reported to the attorney
general by F. G. Paddock, district at
torney for Franklin County, N. Y, are
as follows:
He states that a man owning a saloon
near the boundary line in Malone has
taken up and removed 10 feet into the
United States an iron post which was
heretofore designated the boundary line
between Canada and the United States
The object sought to be obtained is to
bring building owned by the offender
partly within the boundary of Canada
and partly in the United States. This
was done, Mr.. Paddock says, to enable
the trespasser to escape the penalties OF
the custom laws and other restrictions
on the sale of liquors in his saloon by
making it doubtful whether an offense
was committed within the United States
or Canada.
Attorney General Harmon has called
the attention Of the state department to
the matter, and has also directed Mr.
Couther, United States district attorney
for the Northern District of New York
to investigate the affair.

CALLED THE FIGHT OFF.

NeW York Chamber of Commerce Aban-
don Their Fight Az inst silver.
NEW YORK, Oct. THE campaign of
edueation begun by the chamber of COM
merce Of New York four months ago in
opposition to the free silver idea has
been squelched. Whether the influence
which caused the chamber to abandon
the agitation was welded by William
G. Whitney, or whether the members
concluded the game was not worth
the candle are questions for debate.
The result is the same in either case.
The fight will gradually taper off
from this time: The expected struggle
between the radical and conservative
members of the chamber did not take
place. An agreement was reached,
apparently before the meeting.
Ex-Congressman Joseph G. Hendrix
said at the National Union bank that
there had been no split in the committee
on sound finance of the chamber of
commerce
"But," said Mr., Hendrix, "my
opinion is that the silver propaganda
is done for i'll this country. am ready
to keep up the agitation so long
as there is anyone to agitate with.
There is no harm in preach
ing sound money doctrines whenever
and wherever one can obtain an au-
dience in this country. 1t is always a
good cause. The people in the West
and South are getting money for their
products and l notice that they are all
anxious to get good money. I person
ally believe there is no prospect of a
change in our standard of value, but if
anybody thinks there is, 1t is worth
while to fight Oh and am ready to give
what help can"

PARIS, Oct. THE funeral cortege
of the late Professor Pas eur to Notre

the military governor of Paris, headed
the escort of troops. An almost innu-

ministers, senators, deputies and nu-
merous. delegations from different scien-
titic and other bodies from all parts Of
France and from many foreign coun-
tries. An immense concoursc Of people
lined the streets through which the fu-
neral procession passed, although the
sky was heavily overcast and a down
pour Of rain was threatened. The pro-
cession arrived at Notre Dame cathedral
at noon, and shortly afterwards the fu-
neral services we're commenced.
Services Were Imposing.
The services were very imposing and
were attended by President Faure, the
members of the diplomatic corps, Prince
Nicholas Of Greece, the Grand Duke
Constantine of Russia, all in full dress
uniforms. After absolution had been
pronounced by Cardinal Richard, the
archbishop Of Paris, the coffin was
carried to catafalQue in the
center Of the square in front of the Ca
thedral. There M. Poinca,rc, the min
lister of education, made speech eulo-
giving the hfework of the deceased, and
afterwards the troops and different

falque. At the conclusion of the cere.

OT SCIENTIFIC VALUE.
sompletion of an Accurate Survey of the

Conn pletion OF an Accurate Survey Of the
seth Parallel.
WASHINGTON, Oct. THE scientific
measurement by the United States
coast and geodetic survey Of the distance
from the Golden Gate of San Francisco
to the mouth of the Chesapeake along
the 39th parallel has been completed.
The news that the last line of the last
triangle had been taken in this great
work, has been received by General
Duffield, the superintendent of
the survey, in dispatch from Mr..
William Einbeck, who has been in
charge of the undertaking since it's in
ception in 1878. Every scientist in the
world has been waiting anxiously for
this news. It's importance may be
judged from the fact that upon this east
and west line depends the determine
ton of the precise shape of the earth
and the accurate laying of lines of lon
gitude instead of the approximate ones
that are now in use. This line will be
the basis for a revision of all astronomi-
cal work in which accuracy is desired.

Sioux C1rY, Ia., Oct THE efforts
Of the South Dakota railroad commits
sioners to place their Office on q paying
basis are creating considerable astonish-
ment among elevator men all over the
state. Under the state law every grain
elevator is required to pay license fee
Of 81 for doing business, and failing tc
do this penalty Of 500 per day is at
tached for every days violation of the
law. There are over 600 elevators in
the state, of which only about one-haf
have applied for or taken out licenses.
In many cases the violations have con-
tinued for long time, so that the pen.
atty must have mounted up to an enor-
nous figure. The commissioners pro-
pose to start out after the next 10 days
to collect evidence against the violators,
which will be turned over to the attor-
new general for prosecution.

LONDON, Oct. IN. Geach Burch,
the Venezuelan consul here, in an in
terview, said there had been absolutely
no new developments in the boundary
question in dispute between Great Brit
ain and Venezuela since Dr. Puldo, the
Venezuelan minister for foreign affairs,
received Great Britain's decision in the
matter some time ago. He thought,
however, that DR.. Pulido's arrival in
New York was possibly connected with
q mission, entrusted to him by the Ven
ezuelan government, to make further
representations to the United States
government.

will be murdered. Another theory is

so much higher and rougher that the
wayfayer, or he who's a-horsebaclz
or in vehicle, will be glad to take the
side he now despises. The teamster
with thousand of brick will help to
make one or t'other of these sides
smooth before fall. If not, the COM
minuting and pulverizing qualities of
Jack Frost, or a good covering of snow,
may fix things before next spring.
Now such horrid slipshod business is
not at all characteristic of this farmer
on the farm. Ifyou go and look, you will
find that he has all the latest improved
farm machinery, good horses, blooded
cattle and sheep, and is in general a
rather go-ahead sort of man-al-
ways excepting that awful road in
front of his place. When he 'sgets
around to it" am sure he will see that
this cry for good roads is not all in the
interest of those bicycle people. Any
how, what is the matter with the agri-
culturist getting wheel for himself?

A Word About straintnr MILK.

Straining should begin before com
mencing to milk, by brushing off al
the dirt, hair, straw, etc, from the
udder, teats and body of the cow. Let
it be the duty of some one person tc
go over all the cows with a soft brush
or damp cloth before the cows are
milked. An ordinary wire sieve
strainer does very well, but we add to
this by doubling cheesecloth or thin
cotton so as to have it four thicknesses.
Lay the cloth across the bottom of the
strainer and then fasten it on by means
of tin ring which slips over the cloth
and bottom part of the strainer. For
quickness we use a strainer that pail
Of milk may be put into at once This
sets in wooden frame over the can.
Some use wooden cloth to strain
with. Cloth of some kind is necessary
to catch hairs and fine dirt. This cloth
must be kept clean. Scald it thorough
ly each time after using. Ontario Ex-
perimental Farm.

LOOKS BEFORE MERIT.

Importance of Care in Sorting and MAJ
keting Garden Crops.
It costs no more to raise good fruits
and vegetables than it does poor. The
expenses of gathering, packing and
shipping and marketing are precisely
the same on the different grades. But
the returns are wonderfully different,
and, we take it, the farmer is in the
business for these very returns Why
not then get the most out of them?
The only thing which makes the differ
ence between the good and the poor is
care, but this selfsame care must be
crupuIously exercised from beginning
to end. From the proper preparation
of the ground for the plants right
through to the shipping of the crop,
every detail must be attended to; the
neglect of single one may render all
the others futile. 1t will not pay to
expend all the energy on raising good
crops only to gather and ship them in
slipshod fashion. Of the two evils
it is better to err in the other direc-
tons, for careful sorting and neat
packing will do much towards selling
an Indifferent article, all things being
judged first by their appearance and
then by their taste. Looks come before
merit in all cases.
When these are combined, as they
always should be, then the big profits
come in, for fancy articles bring fancy
prices. Too many farmers fail to real
ize this. They save their labor by fail
ing to assert their crops according to
size and quality, or economic in the
wrong direction, as when they use an
old soiled package, thereby disgusting
a would-be purchaser and rendering
him suspicious of the fruit which
clean new package would have set off
and rendered tempting and attractive.
ALI such saving, whether of labor or
money, is false economy, and results
in loss to the seller.-N. Y. World.

The Marketing of Emit.

The producer is a great loser by mar
keting his fruit in a haphazard way.
The fruit houses in the cities send out
into the country drummers and solicit.
ors and they succeed in getting the
fruit consigned to certain houses that
may be utterly unknown to the grow.
er, and his fruit may or may not be
sacrificed. In every section where fruit
growing is a prominent industry, there
should be an organization with an
agent to attend to the marketing. II
