TOBACCO EXPORTS.
Amount We Sell and Who TO.

Tobacco exports continue to
increase. They have been larg
er since the Wilson bill took
effect than in any correspond
ing period during the four
years of McKinleyism. A re-
port recently issued by the
Bureau OF Statistics at Wash
ington shows our exports of
leaf tobacco last year to have
amounted TO 26S, 791 ,312pounds.
Nearly 22,000,O00 pounds of
stem trimmings were exported,
making together 290,6S4.992
pounds of manufactured to-
hacco shipped to other lands
in 1894. This record has been
beaten in only three calendar
years in the history of the
country. One was 1887 and
the other two in the '10'S, the
highest point reached being
22,000,000 pounds in 1879.
Taking fiscal years, the show
ing is still uore favorable for
the last one. In the y months
ending June 30 we exported
800, 9S1 $50 pounds Of unmanu
/ featured tobacco. The entire
year, with the exception OF a
few weeks, was subsequent TO
the passage of the Wilson bill.
Protectionists may claim that
as the tariff on leaf tobacco has
not been reduced, the revival
in the tobacco trade is not due
TO that measure. The fact re
mains, however, that an enOr-
nous increase in export has
taken place since that bill be
came Il law. The export bust
ness generally has improved
and with it the sale of tobacco
To foreign buyers. Although
indirectly, the passage of that
measure has had an immense
influence on the tobacco indus
try. Our exports of leaf to-
bacco the last fiscal year
am mounted TO 293, 795, S55pounds,
n record beaten in only one
fiscal year in the history Of the
United States-in 1879, when
the tariff on leaf tobacco was
only 81 cents a pound,or about
Il fourth of what the Mckinley
bill made it. Last years leaf
tobacco exports were -, 900, 900
pounds larger than those of the
II months ending June 80, 1891,
and about $4,000, 900 larger
than the annual average in the
four years of Mckinleyism-a
gain over the latter of nearly
20 per cent.

Changed for the Worse.

Three young girls of about IS, whose
gowns show quiet good taste, and
whose faces tell of pleasant tempers and
nimble minds, are in parlor together,
alone. One is reading aloud. Her
vo'ce is sweet and unaffected. She
stops now and then, while the three
disc uss the book or their work with
much joking and laughter.
They are clever, but tender and wom-
anly. They are totally unconscious of
themselves; their tones are low and
sincere; there can be no doubt you are
in the company of gentlewomen.
Suddenly, presto! all is changed. A
caller is announced. One of the young
ladies herself, pinches in her lips, and
speaks in mincing monosv tables. An
other gurgles and giggles, bushes. and
losses her chin upward; she lisps her
answers with IN absurd sweetness of
voice and glance.
The third suddenly becomes a very
swash- buckler of young woman.
Hitherto she has spoken En- glish; now
she falls into an unknown dialect.
How is your mother, Jenny?" she
is asked by the visitor.
"Oh. top!'
Il heard your brother had gone to
New York;"
ooh, that was fake He was badly
punished at football. and is lying low
to fetch up"
You seem to know all that's going
on"
80 yes; I'm flyr'
One of her companions at this puts
on in air of offended propriety and
shakes her head with stern reproba-
ton. The other giggles and drops her
head on her breast atfectedly.
What can have changed these simple
pleasant girls into puppets? Can it be
the advent of II single youth, ringed
and chained and with faint down
upon his upper lip. to which is given
all the attention his little mind is capa-
BILE of giving?
Is it possible that any men prefer
these simpering. prim, dash-away
STYLES in women which are sometimes
so exaggerated in silly girls that their
manner might befit slaves drawn up in
the market and trying to attract a
BUYER?
So forced and unnatural is the con-
duct of some of our American girls,
when possible sutton is present, that
nothing of their true selves is seen
through it. They might as we'll be
wrapped in an unbecoming headdress
and covering that make the public
dress of the oriental woman Youth
Companion.

poste nature of the commerce that is
sheltered by this structure is very fairly
revealed the composite character of the
Denver community, and no one class
seems to give offence to the other. The
upper half of the windows of the nu-
merous gambling-shops are brilliant on
Sunday nights, and their faring bea-
cons are not mistaken by the folks who
want TO risk their mes and dollars on
the cast of die.
In the mountain towns, too, gam
bling flourishes as gayly on Sunday
night rs on the others. At Breckin-
ridge last Sunday evening the faro
table of the Denver hotel was crowded.
and there were lively poker games at
the other tables. The town constable,
who was looking on at one game Of
draw. told me there was law against
gambling, but nobody paid any atten-
ton to it, and the town, which has on
ly about seven hundred inhabitants,
supports three gambling-houses all the
year round, and finds four games rath-
er few when court is in session.
At the Denver hotel you walk into
the Office and register; then you pass
through a wide opening into II saloon,
on the ground floor, and after you have
had your drink you can walk right into
the gambling room, also on the ground
floor, and the doorless entrance to
which is about twelve feet wide. The
faro table sits just opposite this en-
trance. You can see it from the dining
room, which is off the office, and the
tracks of blues and whites are attract
lively enough displayed to WOO any sort
of a sport from the table of square
meal. If the weather is any way OPP
pressive the doors along the sidewalk
can be thrown open, and then prone
naders on the only thoroughfare in
town can linoer at the threshold and
learn the game.

kept in operation seven. days in the

Honesty in Selling.

Where customers are in doubt or are
not good judges of the quality of an ar
ticle their decisions are largely deter
mined by the price. We venture to say
that the ma ority of the customers of
dry goods dealer rely altogether on the
very reason the Importance of having
clerks who are honest in selling goods
can not be ovGrestmated Do not have
tricky clerks. They will bring their
own punishment sooner or later in 10 IS
of trade. If store gets the reputa-
ton of being place where the tricks
of trade are resorted to the evil name
will stick to it with more tenacitv than
a porous plaster to the back of fat
man. Deceive one customer and it
may be the means of doing away with a
dozen.
Once in a while customer will ask
to see an article, and on asking the
price may say that it is not good
enough, although it may be the best
quality in town. Ii the customer is not
Judge of quality, but depends on the
price, the clerk is tempted to bring
down another box of the same goods
and put on price to satisfy the buyer.
Now this is dishonest, and although it
may not injure or cause the ruin of
that store. it is the beginning of spe-
cies of trickery that sooner or later
w II spread in other directions. An
old merchant of large experience makes
the statement that in all his mcrcan-

When merchant begins dishonest
act, or allows his clerk to commence
one without rebuke. he is on the road
to ultimate failure. One swallow does
not make spring, nor one dishone st
act make dishonest man. but it is u
door through which other bad acts can
swoop him. - Northwestern Trade.

Raising Horses on the Farm.

Raising colts for market ought to be
one of the sources of farm profits-one
of the perquisites of farmers as eggs
and butter should be the perquisites of
the farmers wife. 1t is not expected
that the ordinary farmer is to be a
fancy breeder, nor, indeed, breeder
of what is called blooded stock. But
he should have an eye to the fitness of
things, and endeavor to breed good,
useful grades. He should have some
idea OF what sort of colt his mare is
calculated to breed, and seek sire ac-
cordingly. In this way. if he can not
breed the highest priced stock, he can
mt least secure n good, useful animal
that will pay for it's rearing and keep.
A few dollars for service of the right
kind is as likely to result in several
dollars value in the colt as good seed is
to bring forth paying crop in the field
over one from poor Seed or seed of a
poor kind. There is no prospect OF
profit in breeding from an inferior sire
because his services can be had for
small cost. As well expect good har,
vest of field corn from planting pop
corn seed, rs to expect valuable colt
from an inferior sire. 1t is perhaps not
worth while to waste expensive service
on a scrub mare, but if mare is worth
breeding from at all, it will pay to Sc
cure service that gives some prospect
of value in the offspring. Something
never comes of nothing. Neither viii

ton of the year, and is frequently in
jured by being grazed ut time when
cravings are most needed; while blue
grass does not come forward rapidly
enough for rotation crop. Nothing.
however, could be better adapted for a
rotation pasture crop than orchard
grass and red clover. Each is very
palatable and nutritious. yields largely,
and stands severe drouths exceedingly
we'll, while both come forward quickly
and make good hay, and rs they ripen
at the same time, are we'll adapted for
being mixed. If it is desirable to cut
the first crop for hay, orchard grass
will come forward and be ready for
grazing quite as soon after cutting as
clover; but clover, taking as it does its
chief substance from the atmosphere.
and for other reasons, is the best fer
tilizer.
If the foregoing statements are SUBJ
stantially correct, the average Western
farmer cultivates four acres for the
grain he may have from three at no
greater cost per acre, and also loses
the profit available from the fourth
acre while in pasture. In other words.
he makes less than seventy-tive cents
when with the same labor he might
make 81.
To prove in detail the advantages to
be ga ned through devotng more land
to grazing, many of which are obvi-
Gus, would require more time and
space than is ut my command, and for
practical purposes is quite unnecessary,
for let any farmer look over his own
county and he will find that as a rule
the most successful farmers, large or
small, are those who have the most
good pasture and meadow, and that
they are men who grow good stock as
well as good crops of grain. When an
exception occurs to the rule it can be
traced to some special reason outside
of the general rule.
In Central New York and in consid-
cradle districts of Ohio, also in many
smaller localities in the other States
named, this or a similar system of
rotation in connection with stock-grow-
ing has been adopted, and when once
tried is seldom abandoned by individ-
uals and never by communities.
1t makes but little difference what
kind of stock man grows, whether
horses, cattle, sheep. or swine. so long
as he selects the best breeds and feeds
well. Good stock always pays; but a
man must be pretty well off before he
can afford to grow scrubs of any kind
