THE TARIFF AND THE FARMER.

1t is often said by Democrats, and
by some Republicans as well, that the
tariff possesses no interest to the
farmer; that he can see no advantage
IN protection. 1t is very easy to
prove otherwise and to make it clear
| that Majo- Mckinley correctly argues
that tariff law, which closes our
shops and factories and makes labor
idle, reduces home consumption of
farm products, and naturally reduces
prices.
Take, for example, our consump-
ton of wheat. For the last three
years, in bushels per capita, it has
been as follows: 1890, 6,O9; 1894, 3,41;
1895, 4,54. Divide the total for the
three years, 1886, by two, and we find
that our average per capita consump-
ton of wheat in 1894 and 1895 was a
little less than four bushels. This is
% per cent below the home consump-
ton in 1890, when the Mckinley poll
cy Of protection was in force, and as
result, times were good.
Inc greatly ESOucSO COuSump blOu
of wheat in this country in 1894 and
1895 was due to but one cause, the
lack Of employment Of our working
men, closing of mills of many indus
tries, owing to the operations of the
Wilson bill. In opening to our farm
ers the "markets of the world"
which were to be such an Eldorado to
them, the Democrats SO restricted our
home markets that the price of wheat
has gone down to keep pace with de-
creased consumption. In 1890 wheat
was worth 98 cents, in 1898 only 70
cents and in 1894 only 81 cents, the
decline in price being in about the
same ratio with the fall in home con-
sumption per capita. These facts are
sufficient argument in themselves.
Protection will protect the farmers
as we'll as the other classes of the
country. Exchange.

Row colts ave seen la the west a

Few colts are seen in the west at
the present time, and it would seem
that is good year to begin to raise
horses. Yearlings and sucking colts
are really scarce, and the breeder
who will have good horses to market
three years hence will doubtless re-
ceive remunerative prices. Horses
must be good to'sell at paying prices
however, and there is not a cent of
profit in raising other kinds. The ra-
dical difference in prices for horses
of the same age and weight is based
on soundness, quality and action.
