A RURAL OPINION.

The poets that are singin' of the harvest ''rich
an sweet"
Never worked at fOddeE-puIlin, shuckin' corn
OF thTeshin' wheat
The distance sOrteF dazzlos, but ieIlsr's fancy
fails
When he's put to pickin' cotton, hauIin' hay OF
spIttin' rails.
In the cities they are singin' of "the music in
ths dells"-
The everlastin' Fingin' of the pesky cattle
bells;
But they'd sOrter change the meter-with their
hands as soft as silk,
If you made EN- drive the cattle home an give
en- COWS to milk
They make you tired talkin' bout "ths noble
sons OF toll
The 'hOFny-handed heroes" that are tillin' OF
the soil;
But it sets me down to thinkin'; If that labor,
lOvin' crowd
Had hands one-haH as horny, would they blow
their horns so loudi
It's distance makes EN- do it, they write by
city rule;
They praise a Texas pony, make an angel Of a
mule
But 1 tell you, teller citizens, twOuld make EN-
change their style,
If ever we could run EN- down an pillow en- all
awhile

A H0ETE YARYgY RgaIIZED.

Mexico is q brave country. While her
debt is held abroad and is payable in
gold, she submits to the system Of rob-
berry which depgssses the value of her
money and products, and yields in
creased profits to the ROthschilds.
But there is another side 60 this pic
ture, says the Wichita Beacon, and
curiously enough it is q side which the
republicans of this country ought to
appreciate. For years We have heard
about the desirability Of trading ex
clusively at home. We have taxed
everything entering our ports and made
it dearer in order to force our people Il
manufacture and purchase at home.
Mexico is now placed where she mus
become self supporting. Her money
has been repudiated throughout thu
world, China alone excepted, anC
everything imported is very dear. In
stead Of fighting the foreigners by de
feulting on her interest, Mexico tell
her people to buy nothing abroad bu
to live within themselves. This is th
ideal condition sought by the prOtec
tive tariff advocates Of the Unitet
States.
This country has so much TO sell tina
we cannot prOftably live within our
selves, but Mexico must do so, as siIve
is her great product and it has beel
cFuoified.

CATTLE IN KANSAS.

Large Profits in Fattening Stock for the
Eastern Markets.
A new era has begun out here in the
western counties of the state, says q
Kansas correspondent Of the Chicago
Record. There is no more of the old
time trust in the captions favor Of the
rainfall, The people are starting into
the cattle business on a scale that may
mean a revival of the vests once prom
ising conditions.
The vest is in the cattle business in
earnest. Thousands and tens Of thou
sands Of Mexican and Texan longhorns
have been driven up the sites of the
farms deserted by settlers, and since
the first of the year fully 100000 head
OF feeders have come into western Kan
sas and half as many more are there
for breeding purposes. These stock
cattle have cost about so head.
Western Kansas, however, is not so
much cattle-grOwing country as It is a
eattle-moVing country. It is the ideal
place to fit the stock for the market.
and the stock that come up from the
hot southwest for this purpose are put
on the yards in better shape than are
those that the ranchers &c for beef
themselves. It is solving the question
for the landowners, and as the cattle
90 out in small punches there is no
chance for any very large losses except
where it can we'll be afforded.
In the old cattle-traii days it used TO
be said that the Indian must get out Of
the soil before the cattle could dc well.
That time has come. The settlers have
got the soil in good condition so far as
the Witness is concerned. They have
tried to ploW it and have raised q few
crops. But neither the trees that the
government urged them 70 plant nor
the damming Of the draws has made the
yields that they expected and there is
q general desire to let the states vest
end be used for the things that it is
capable Of. The state legislature at the
recent session disposed Of the state
irrigation plants, and thus admitted
that the experiment was a failure. The
expensive Kindmills arc being sold for
a song aud the department Of forestry
viii close the incident with a report Of
the proceeds TO the governor. The
desertion Of that part Of the stass to
the eattlsmen is the best thing that
could happen toit. for they will succeed

HOW We EAT SUGAR.
Statistics Of Sugar COn.umptioa in the
United Ststes.

Statistics OF Sugar Con .Unption in the
United States.
The Scientific American in the course
Of an interesting and instructive ar
tiele on the sugar industry in the
United States, sets ont some funda-
mental facts Of peculiar interest.
It appears that during the year 1895
the consumption of sugar in the
United States was 2O93,s9l tons, equal
to a per capita consumption of 63
pounds.
The domestic production 1886
tons; the Importation l,739313 tons.
For one ton Of sugar raised in the
United States five we're imported.
During the past Is years only one.
tenth Of the consumption has been
produced IN this country.
During this time the people Of the
United States have paid out for i'm
ported sugar sl,5OO,OOO,OOO, an averag,
yearly tribute Of nearly slOO,OOO,OOO.
About oHe-fourth of this impOEta-
ton was German beet sugar. Ali im
ported raw sugar is purchased by th;
Sugar Refining company, and Othel
firms of less note, who refine it and
put it on the market as standard gran
ulated sugar.
The beet sugar industry is supposed
to owe its origin to the necessity Of thO
people during the blockade of Francs
on account of the NapoleOnie wars
Germany, however, has become a large
producer Of this prOpuct than any 9th
er country.
The area adapted to the growth o
sugar cane in this country is very lin
tied, and the output of that produc
can never meet the home demand
Experience has shown, however, tina
large areas are adapted to the success
full growing of the sugar beet, with
high percentage of saccharine matter
, and the United States should raise it
own sugar.

pledges Of kings and rulers win never
do way With wars.
