HAvRE DE GRACE, March 14.-Mrs. Fl. T.
Woodrow, who has been soiourning for the
past two months with her husband at Southern
Pines N C., reached home on Friday. Mr..
Woodrow returned few days later, Mrs.
Woodrow having started in advance in order
to attend the meeting of the w. c. L. L. III
Washington ID. c., last week. Mr. Woodrow
is much improved in health, and hopes now
to be able to resume his business, which is that
of contractor and builder.
Mr.. Thomas Hail. of this place, has dispos-
ed of his interest in the Mint Hotel to Mr. Ira
Wells, of North East, Md, who will take
charge the first of May. Mr.. Hall expects to
go to California
Mrs. Hollis Courtney spent portion of the
past week with friends in Washington and
Baltimore.
A great number of dogs have succumbed to
poison the past week, some worthless and
some good dogs. While it is not right to dis
criminate in the kind of dogs to be killed, it
is right to discriminate in the manner i'll
which they should be killed. The city Off
cials have said they should be shot and not
poisoned, and they should not be censured
for the wholesale poisoning which has been
going on for the past week.
Business is gradually picking up in Hayre
de Grace. The can houses are now making
good time, and, while the scale of wages
has been somewhat reduced and the number
of hands accordingly, the men seem willing to
stand the reduction, inasmuch as the can
market is somewhat paralyzed and there is
little or no sale for them at any price
The condition of the river is but little
changed here from what it was last week.
The ice has all passed off from below into the
bay while the gorge above remains intact on
the Cecil side. The channel on the Western
or Hartford side is gradually wearing larger
and no further danger is anticipated from
the gorge above.
Ducks seem more plentiful and the gunners
are making a desperate effort to kill enough
to make for the time the river was closed up.
The markets are very low in New York, Bslti-
more and Philadelphia, and there is very little
sale for them, except at low figure. There
remain but two more weeks now for shooting
them after which our people will begin fishing.
Already several mud shad have been caught
along the canal in scoop netsa rare thing so ear
" in the.season. 1t is thought they were driven
from up the river by the recent flood.
The steam launch NADIA arrived from Nor
folk, Va, on Monday She left there on sun

MIR EDIToR.-The comparison made in your
paper few weeks ago, between the condition
of the farmer and that of worker in a city,
would have better applied if the farmer were
in the circumstances of even two years ago,
but the statistics of agriculture do not show
that he is now in an enviable situation.
Thirty five millions of our people live by
working land-seven millions Of workmen
represent them. The entire labor and capital
controlled by those seven millions have pro-
duced in 1894, crops aud other results valued
at two and one-half billions of dollars, nearly.
The exact figures are 81 AGO, 107, 454. Divided
among the seven millions it gives about $3.50
each.
With this sum the worker has first to house,
feed and clothe five people. Then he has his
share of sixteen billions worth of plant, he
has to keep it up, fences, buildings, feed his
stock, seed, manure, tools and taxes to pay,
and interest on his mortgages. When he gets
through all this he will be able to give the
reasons why he does not buy the manufacture
ed goods of the town artisan, and perhaps why
he is a little behind in the payment of his taxes
and interest AS for interest on the sixteen
billions of plant it would be cruel to speak OF
it, The four hundred and sixty millions Of
bushels of wheat raised had value of two
hundred and twenty millions of dollars, a
gross return of Sc. so per acre for 1894.
About 1S years ago the crop of 525, 0OO, O0O
bushels was worth to us nearly $500, ZOO, 600
That year enabled our farmers to pay debts
and buy the results of other labor. 1t will be
some time before that situation comes round
again. N.

In regard to the wheel question of sc. ).
NJ. would advise him to follow the plan of
a certain backwoodsman for solution of the
problem. This man on meeting wagon for
the first time, was astonished at the difference
in the size of the wheels, and followed it for
nearly mile to see how soon the hind wheel
would run over the front ones. If "E. 5. NJ u
would follow a wagon for that distance, he
would find out how far the top of each wheel
was ahead of the bottom. Seriously speaking,
however, the answer expected is probably
this: The top of the wheel moves through
space faster than the bottom, like rolling q
rock on the ground. The top will move faster
than the under part until it is turned hall
over, and then what was formerly the bottom,
is now on top and again in motion, while the
under side is retarded. The wheel would be
a lever of the third class, the point OF con
tact with the ground being the fulcrum and
powerapplied at the hub But as the fulcrum i:
continually changing, and the speed of eacL
part of the wheel is retarded or accelerated
Uniformity of motion is produced. BRUCE.
