Pure Water Essenti2i.-As the coun-
try becomes older. the supply OF sur
face water becomes more contaminated
and unhealthy and greater care should
be taken to supply pure water for the
stock with deep wells and wind mills.
Pure, clean water is necessity for
the condition OF all kinds Of stock.

Eggs Per Year.

We hear a great many stories about
the hens that laid 200 eggs each per
year. We would like to see a large
flock Of say hundred hens that would
lay even 1875 eggs per year each. We
know people that have kept stesdy
account for years Of their fowls, and
were never able to get much above
the 1OO-egg mark. In fact, If one could
be assured that his hens would lay 100
eggs each in a year he would have
safe business in which to invest. We
are speaking of the common run or
farm hocks. The focks in mind were
composed of Plymouth Rocks and
Brown Leghorns, most Of them OF
doubtful age.

Hogs in Spite OF Cholera.-It is gen.
orally conceded that the farmer can
grow hogs at profit in the long run
and yet sustain the usual losses by
cholera. AS we view the matter the
question Is never pertinent one
whether we can afford to quit growing
hogs on the farm. The sole problem
confronting him. and it is most vital
one. is how to grow hogs with the
least chance OF loss by disease. We
believe the matter rests largely with
proper methods of feeding, together
with a proper regard for cleanliness and
an intelligent and persistent effort in
the direction OF fighting shy of cholera.
In the future cholera is to be regarded
as a constant factor in the matter Of
pork production. 1t is the business OF
the pork maker to recognize this fact
and meet it as best he can. The hog

everything TO chance will be lucky in

prepared to say this morning whether
the Wheeling & Lake Erie railroad
would haul West Virginia coal. He
had received advices from Dillonyale
that his miners are still out, with no
immediate prospects of their return.
The event of the morning was the
frantic effort of the little dealers to
secure coal from the big dealers to
supply the retail consumer. In every
instance the dealers refused to deliver
the coal, and the effect of the great
strike is beginning to eNfelt in the
homes. The price of steam coal of run

Vanced, and is now 81 above what 1t
was Thursday. The demand is be-
coming greater every hour, and the
supply is constantly becoming less.
The feeling of alarm is beginning to
spread among men who yesterday
viewed the situation with disdain.
j. b. Scribe, of the Ohio & Pennsyl-
vania Coal company, was inclined to
regard the strike as Of short duration,
and it was commonly believed that 1t
would be a failure. But big mine
operators and manufacturers are be-
ginning to consider it's strength, and
today there is CONSERVATION amons
coal dealers, marine men, manufac-
turers and working men generally. The
railroads are continuing to coniscate
coal, though one manufacturer made
so healthy howl that the Lake Shore
actually consented to disgorge one car
this morning. At the breweries and
packing houses the situation is regard
ed with general alarm, as coal must
be obtained to prevent incaIculable
damage to beer and meats.

Even the influential papers which have

A sensation has been produced by
an editorial article in the Cologne
Gazette, saying that unless a total re-
tracing Of steps takes place at Berlin
the next elections will bring a vol
canic eruption of popular indignation,
and a terrible defeat for the Ost-Fib-
sches-Junkerthum Ghe aristocracy or
nobility of the territory east of the
river Elbe)." The Munich Allgemeine
Zeitung has published a scathing ar
Regiment of Emperor William and his
policy, condemning his habit of med
ding with everything and saying that
he thereby misses a correct survey Of
the general situation. ~
Physically the emperor is unusually
we'll. When he started from Lubbock
on his Northland trip, it was generally
remarked how healthy and sunburned
he looked. The empress, with her seven
children at Tegernze, has stormed and
captured the hearts of the simple Ba-
varians. She and her children are the
objects of ceaseless, spontaneous ova-
tiCns. The two elder princes are being
inducted into the mystery of chamois
stalking and grouse hunting by veteran
mOuntaineer hunters.
Terrible thunderstorms, hail storms
and cloudburStS have devastated large
districts of Wurtemburg, Baden and
Alsace. In the district of Cehringen,
Wurtemburg, alone. the damage is
computed at 100000 marks with no
insurance. At Buchsweller, Alsace,
the hail destroyed everything growing,
killing many cattle and injuring scores
of people. During the hurricane which
prevailed the largest trees were up
rooted and hurled long distances.
The Cologne Gazette advises German
exporters to adopt extra precautions in
crediting American purchasers in view
of the commercial depression in the
United States. The new oleomargarine
law will have a tendency to restrict
American imports of oleomargarine
materials as, under the law, the sale
of oleomargarine will be much more
difficult and less advantageous. The
law is closely modelled after the
American measure. The total quar-
antine against Russia hogs takes eff
feet on Sept. 1, along the German Rus
sian frontier.
The newspapers are full of dismal
forebodings in regard to the new
United States tariff. The Liberal news
papers, however for instance, the Ma
tional Zeitung, Tageblatt, Boersen
Courier, and others warn the govern
ment against entering forthwith into
a tariff war with the United States,
though they have no doubt the Ding
ley bill will become law substantially
as passed by the senate and that Ger
man industry, notably woolens, will be
gravely injured.

coionials to sit in parliament. Joe
thought some sort of a colonial council
with a high sounding title, and occa-
sional distribution of stars and or
ders would satisfy the colonials and
prevent any tendency to cut loose from
the mother country, which was the
only reason why this scheme was at
tempted at all. England is satisfied
with her relations with the coIonies
but she is not satisfied that such re-
lations can stand the strain when the
colonies become of age and restive in
their strength. Laurier put our views
straight to Chamberlain when he said
in the conference:
Canada is satisfied now with her
relations with the motherland; but we
are rapidly approaching the parting Of
the ways. When Canada has 10000, 900
of people she will have attained her
strength, and unless she has then a

BERLIN. July 10.-The main busi-
ness Of serious import to be transacted
during Emperor Williams visit to the
czar, the correspondent of the Asso-
c1ated Press here learns, will be the
formation of a distinct understanding
between Russia and Germany in regard
to a frankly anti-British policy in the
Orient, especially in connection with
Japan and China; and, in the event of
possible complications arising from the
critical situation in India, Emperor
William will pledge himself to syste-
matically support Russian interests in
that part of the world, a policy which
in the main is approved by Prince Ho-
henlohe, the imperial chancellor, and
which, it is hoped, will further isolate
Great Britain. Russia, on her part, is
to promise the weight of her influence
in favor of Germany in the event of
annexation plans in Samoa and else
where maturing.
The emperor hopes that, notwith-
standing the natural jealousy of France
growing out of this programme, that
an entent with the French republic in
most cases will be also possible. 1t
was owing to this outspoken anti-Brit-
ish programme, the outlines of which
were sketched at the meeting between
Emperor William and the czar at Bres-
lau in 1896, that his majesty deemed it
best to show a great deal of reserve
in regard to Queen Victoria's jubilee,
and the retiring attitude of the Ger
man embassy in London during the fes
tival was due to the same cause. 1t
was on this subject, too, that Emperor
William and Baron Marschall Won
Bieberstein, the minister for foreign af-
fairs, differed for some time, and this
is said to have hastened the baron's
desire to retire. On the occasion Of the
recent visit of Prince Hohenlohe and
Baron Won Bulow to Prince Bismarck
this matter was discussed at some
length, and it is said that the ex-chan-
cellor heartily indorsed the programme.
Further developments of the cabinet
crisis will be postponed until his
maJesty's return from st. Petersburg.
1t is probable Prince Hohenlohe will
remain in office until the fall, at least.
According to the latest information
obtainable, Baron Won Thielmann, the
German ambassador to the United
States, will be appointed as the sue
cessor of Count Posadowsky-Wehn

only in the event Of an interview
between Won Hhielmann and the en-
peror, when the latter returns from his
trip north, proving satisfactory. In

PITTSBURG, Pa, July 1O.-The week
closes with the forces engaged in the

miners officials held a secret meeting,
at which 1t is believed a vigorous cam

tomorrow, was decided upon. The op-

are saying less. However, their con-
fidence in defeating the miners has not

where they had been for
the past two days endeavoring
to arrange for a settlement of the coal
miners strike by arbitration. The COM

Monday. when an organized effort to
end the dispute will be made. The
commission has telegraphed several
large operators in Indiana and Illinois
to be present at the meeting After a
thorough canvass of the Indiana field
the commissioners expressed the belief
that a settlement hinges on the initia-
tive of the operators in the Pittsburg
district where the matter is estab-
lished If the advance is made to the
miners in that district, they say, there
is but little doubt that the differential
