Democrats. Congressman Howard,
an influential Populist from Alabama,
is quoted as saying that it will be i'm

history that Democratic free trade or
low tariff has brought just such de-
preston in a greater or less degree as

Mckinley law, and is now coming

his Ohio speeches, Mr.. Bryan dwelt
exultantly upon the statement that

fact, however, that at the time OF his
speech wheat had again advanced to
the dollar mark, but Mr.. Bryan failed
to notice this unimportant fact.

Mr. Bryan claims that the taking
out of gold from the Kiondike is a
powerful factor in bringing the pres
ent return of prosperity to the coun-
try. A little while ago Mr.. Bryan
could not see any prosperity. Now
he sees some signs Of it. but attributes
it to the foreign scarcity" and to the
gold brought in from the Klondike.
Up to the present time many more
dollars have been expended in fitting
out parties to go to the Klondike than
have yet been taken from those mines.
In the recent report Of the Secretary
of Agriculture to the President, he
has recommended that every foreign
embassy be provided with an agricul.
tiirist having definite knowledge of
the workings of the Agricultural De-
partment, SO that when specific infor-
nation is desired in the interests of
the farmers in relation TO the agricul-
tural products or fruit productions Of
foreign countries it can be readily OBJ
tanned. Under the present system Of
foreign representation 1t is very diff
cult to obtain the class Of information
desired by the Department in carry
ing on its Investigations. Foreign
countries are represented in the Unit
ed States by able and practical agri-
culturists, who watch and report upon
every experiment aud move made
by our agriculturists and horticulture
isrs.

Property owners on the Hill
have been worried over the sand
DRIFT and wondering what could be
done to stop the sand and reclaim
the area covered. The solution
seems to have been easy as the ex-
periments made last year show.
The owners of Nez Perez add.
ton have a fine stand of rye grow
ing upon the area recently covered
by the sahd drift. Enough Of a
test was made by the crop of list
year to prove that this is the solu-
ton OF the sand problem as far as
retaining the land is concerned
The sand contains abundance Of
soil to support vegetation. Each
year as the roots aud stalks &C.
cumulate and decompose will in
crease in fertility and firmness till
it equals the compact strata of the
surface soil OF the adjacent mesa.
At the expense of few dollars
for fencing and grain to sow the
tract the whole Of the sand area
can be made field of grain by
spring with roots so firmly i'm
bedded in the soil as to hold the
shifting sand and stop the drift
from further injuring adjacent pro.
perties. Private individuals, the
city. and several lodge corpora
tons are interested in the land in
question. A combined effort will
make light expense to all con
cerned and stop further damage.
