Mr. Bryan informs the palpitating
public that the foreign famine is re-
SpOnSible for the increased price of
wheat in the face of the fall of silver,
but says nothing about advance in
cotton, tobacco, corn, meats, wool and
other farm products.
Ohio farmers who take the time
from their busy and profitable duties
to listen to Mr.. Bryan'S 81 800 speech
would like to have him explain how it
is that Ohio wool, which sold at II
cents year ago, now brings % cents,
while silver has fallen 20 per cent
meantime.
The Argentine Republic, which
sold us about eight million dollars
worth of wool and hides last year, is
considering proposition to shut out
the one million dollars worth of lum-
Der, kerosene, and farm implements
which we sell her annually, because
of our tariff on wool and hides.

Formosa, and some parts of China and
the Philippines. Secretary Wilson
the head of the Department OF Agri
culture. proposes to give the citizens
of the Gulf States an opportunity tC
experiment in this line. He is pre-
slips to that section, and is thus like
ly to add another important industry
to those of the agricultural element
"What does w. J. Bryan say now
He tries to explain that silver anC
wheat are on diverging lines becaus,
of famine abroad. Only few
States are interested in silver mine:
and the price of silver. Compare tn,
few mine-ownerS with the million o
farmers and wheat-growerS. and VIII,
