From the Cincinnati Tlmes-Star.
1t Is unnecessary 10 offer arguments
to show that grave danger Turks In the
growing disregard fov law. TIE multi
plication OF mobs, organized either to
wreak summary vengeance on crimi
nails or to remedy grievances, Is q grave
menace to social order la the past few
years the y nited States has had a severe
experience Of mob violence assuming the
character OF an insurrection IL is obvi
GUS that this tendency towards lawless-
ness will sooner or later bring upon great
communities, II not upon the whole
country, a disaster more frightful than
any thRt has Eeen heretofore evolved
from the social conditions in America.
SO long as there Ia lawlessness In public
Offices, especially in Legislative to1ies, it
will be folly to expect the Efforts Of
courts and press and law and order
agencies to check the tendency among
the people 10 disregard the law End. upon
provocAtion, to appeal to fOrcs for right
log wrongs. The 30 called ruling ele-
nent, the class Of so called representa-
tive men who constitute the governing
power, who control the state Lsglsla
lures, seem to be- little more In need OF
education and discipline than the 'plain
people" Of the country.

The Nature of sandy Soil.

Sand has great power for the trans
portation of water. 1t will convey wa
ter quicker than any other soil, but itI
will not hold as much. A clay soil will
hold more, but water will pass through
more slowly. Sandy soils take in all
the rains that fall, and if there is a sub
terranean supply within ten or fifteen
feet of the surface, it seems to have o
power to pump the water up to the
roots of the plants. If, however, there
is no such supply, the higher tempera-
ture of summer will usually increase
the temperature Of the top sandy soil
and gradually dry it out faster than
fine, clayey soil. Clay will hold more
moisture, and hold it longer than any
other form of soil, but it must be pro-
tected by surface cultivation.-Rural

But when the lazy horse at lags be-

II, however, the free horse lags at

American Corn for Mexico.

Owing to the removal by the Mexican
government of import duties on corn
for the two states Of Vera Cruz and
Tamemlipas, and owing to the scarcity
of grain there, large shipments are be-
ing made from this country, chiefly via
Mobile, Ala, which has facilities for
shipping to Mexican ports. One steam
ship company has already carried 7O0,-
900 bushels, and for August and Sep
tember the total reached 100000 bush
els. What these figures mean is shown
by comparison with the total shipments
to Mexico for the year ending June 80,
1896, the aggregate being 1,677653
bushels. In the year previous the total
was only 1851 bushels. The corn
sells for $3.50 a bUshel in Mexican
money.

will draw exactly half of the load, no
matter which one is ahead. Fig.
shows this. If the line of the cleVis
holes, a, and C, is not at right angles
with the central line OF draft, m n,
both horses will be nearer that line,
but both will be equally distant from
it, drawing in lines p and q, parallel
with m n. Hence each will draw half
of the load.
2.-But if, as in Fig. 2, the three
clevises are rigid (as sometimes on
moving machines) and the central
point of draft (or fulcrum), b, is be-
hind, and the fulcrums, a and C, are in
front of the evener, then when both
horses are even, as in the upper posi-
