We live in a country Of which the
principal scourRe is STONE ch trouble.
1t is more widespread than any
other disease, and, very nearly. more
dangerous.
One thing that makes it so danger.
GUS is that it is so little understood.
II it were better understood, 1t
would be more feared, more easily
cured, less universal than it is now.
So. those who wish to be cured,
take Shaker Digestive Cordial, BE-
cause it goes to the root Of the

American Exports.

49,; American Exports. -?
Secretary Day has asked for an appro-
priation Of $2o. 900 to pay the expenses
Of a commercial commission to China,
the work of which would probably
cover other oriental fields Of trade Flo
emphasizes the fact that now tho United
States stands in tho very front rank of
industrial nations. but that up to very
recent period it has given but little con.
certed effort to the sale Of its manufac-
lures outside of its own borders. While
the balance Of trade has generally been
in our favor that has been in the main
the result Of agricultural exports or
determined by features Of the market
moro financial than purely commercial
in character.
The record OF 1892. which, was oul
banner yeur Of the past, gave the agsrc-
gate Of agricultural exports at $780,
82S, 212. The present fiscal year, 1t Is
almost certain, will SUM up 1886, 000,-
600, or more, an increase OF about IS
per cent over last. The exports of most
Of the food products display ratio Of
increase similar to that sf the cereals.
This class of exports (all included in
the category Of agriculture) can be left
to take care Of its own interests, for tho
rest of the world is compelled to look
to us for the supply Of inevitable def
cheney. But the law does not hold good
in those exports when at least three
other great manufacturing peoples arc
powerful competitors, and it ia here
that every provision must be exercised
to secure q share in the service Of for.
eign markets corresponding to our great
ness and warranted by our industrial
and inventive skill That we have not
already achieved this is because we
have professed too much absorption in
our home affairs to feel moro than q
platonic interest in that larger circuit
Of relations which encompasses the
world 1t is universally felt abroad that
with the present war our star, as so1ne-
times occurs as fact in astronomy, has
suddenly blazed into luminary Of ten
fold effulgence 1t has emerged on the
contemporary world with something
like shock, upsetting calculations and
dislocat:r\ the balance Of power in the
far east. It is not necessary that the
end in view should be territorial con-
quest. But we shall be more than fools
If it is not the open gate to such COM
mercial expansion, to such an output Of
manufactured products for distant con-
sumption. as even our optsmists have
never dreamed Of
Secretary Long is wise in his desire
for q thorough study Of all the oondi-
lions Of that enormous trade, opening
it's arms in reciprocation Of what our
arms have invited with voice Of thun-
der. Our merchants and manufacturers
must surely follow where our battle
Ships have led.

Weekly Crop Bulletin.

WEEK ENDING AUG. 8, 1893. =
The first half Of the week was
decidedly cool, but the latter part
was warmer. There have been rains
in some part OF the state every day
in the week except the 3rd; those In
the earlv part of the week were
light and scattered, while those on
the 4th. and 9Th were more general
and much heavier. In the MjnnesO-
ia river valley the rain measured
from two inches to over five inches.
In the Red river valley the rainfall
was from one-half to one inch, ex-
cept in Hubbard. Clay and Wllkin
counties it was much lighter.
In the southwestern counties the
storm OF the 4th. and 9Th. was &C.
companied by )ighteing which
caused considerable loss of life and
large losses to buildings and stock.
Spring wheat harvest has ad-
vanctd northward to Norman
county, and it will reach the north
ern boundry about the 18th. Wheat
and oat cutting ia well advanced in
the north of the center of the state,
and nearly finished In the south,
where it would all have been In
shock except for the rain. In the
region where the rain was heavy the
uncut grains are badly beaten down
and tangled 50 that cutting will be
slow and attended with lOas.
Grain shocks not in good condition
were soaked with water. aud some
fears were expressed that wheat
would ,sprout. but only one or two
cases of sprouting are reported.
Fortunately the rain was without
high winds in most places. Barley
harvest is on In the Red river valley.
Stacking and threshing have been
stopped by wet weather, and several
days Of drying weather will be re-
quired before they can be resumed.
The yield of winter wheat, barley
and oats are reported as very good.
Corn. late potatoes and pastures
are much benefited by the rains.
though it is said that some corn and
potatoes on light land were beyond
recovery before the rain came. Tim
othy for seed lis being cut for seed;
some Of it is Smelling of badly.

Hanna and his associates. It can
he we'll remembered that Senator
Hanna was opposed to the war, and
was frequently quoted as saying
there would be no war. 1t was the
