ADVANTAGES Of Wide Tires.

Experiments made at the Missouri
agricultural station show that in near
" all road conditions broad tired vag-
ons pull easier than those with narrow
tires. On macadam road load OF
2,518 pounds can be hauled on broad
tires with the same draft as load oi
1900 pounds on narrow ones. On
gravel road, except when wet and lobby
on top, the draft of the broad tired
wagon is much less than that OF the
narrow tired wagon. A load Of 2,4S2
pounds can be hauled on broad tires
with the draft required for 1900
pounds on narrow tires.
The trials on dirt roads give varying
results. When j: is dry, hard and
free from dust, z, $50 pounds can be
hauled on broad tires with the draft
required for 1000 pounds on narrow
tires. Where the surface is covered
with two or three inches of dry, loos;
dust, the results are favorable to the
broad tire.
In general the better the road tie
greater the advantage of the broad
tire. On turf it is much easier OF
draft.

growth OF this nation. A population
of 76, ,299, ,22Oln 1900 means an increase
of more than 5000, 600, or nearly 2
per cent, during the past ten years
There is no change In the eorder o

retains first place, with a gain of .27O,-
156, or 100000 more than in the pre-
ceding ten years. Pennsylvania is sec

against Fl per cent. for New York, &C
per cent. for Pennsylvania and 26 pc,
cent. for Illinois. New Jersey 3 increase
Is 438, ,736, or 80 per cent. Among the
surprises is the gain OF 36 per cent
for Texas, making the population oi
the Lone Star State more than 3,OOO,-
600. Georgia shows an increase oi
about the same percentage as that OF
Pennsylvania. AS compared with the
returns OF 1890 the Northwestern States
have shown small gains.
An important result of the new CEN
sus will be change In the Congress
ional apportlonment. though just what
the ratio Will be can be known only
after Congress shall have acted on the
matter. After the census of 1880 the
total number of Representatives was
increased by thirty-three, and after tie
Eleventh census thirty-one seats were
added to the House, the ratio being
one Representative to each 173, ,9O1 of
population. It is predicted that the
now ratio Will be 195, 600, which would
increase the membership of the House
by twenty-five, and would make a total
mem bership of 3e2. New York would
gain three Representatives, Pennsyl-
lvania two, Illinois three, Texas three,
New Jersey three, and other States
scattered all over the country one
each, while Maine, Virginia, Kansas
and Nebraska would each losa one
Representative. The largest sectional
gain would be nine Representatives
from the Southern States.

CHILDREN and PETS.
They Ought 70 Have Them.
The BOY AND HIS DOG.

The other day I heard small bo,
begging his fathers permission to brin,
home a puppy that friend had offeret
him. The father stamped his foot an6
said "No, sir no dogs, cats, nor goat
for me, 1t you please"
The boy said "Papa, please let mt
have it; I will keep it out of doors, an6
it is so pretty and smart !"
The parent replied Cali that dog
eats would be wasted and we need the
scraps for our pigs"
The child cotinued to beg "Papa ]
will not eat as much as I have been
doing, SO as to give the puppy part OF
my iood,"
The father said "No" like a clap OF
thunder. The tightening had already
flashed in his face.
The. child contributed shower oI
tears, and soon the storm was over, but
it left it's mark. The boy stood it as
we'll as he could till the next day, when
he slipped up behind his papa, who
sitting before the fire reading, and
stealing around to the lett planted
a big kiss on the bearded cheek and
said "Papa, when you were boy did
you have any dogs?"
The father, without taking his eyes
from the paper. remarked grumIy :
"More dogs than sense"
In little while the child sobbbed
himself to sleep in the attic, called
"the boys ROOM"
I said to myself, and I am yet of
the opinion, that that was heartless
old heathen that boy called "papa."
Sometimes it is true, there are good
reasons why parents could not consent
for their children to keep dog for a
pet, but such canes are rare. This par
ent's objections were overcome by the
real arguments of his child.
Boys will have something or some
oody to associate with. Many of them
haye we seen with the mean substitute
of vulgar boy for the companionshlp
of an innocent dog. A boy companion
may prove faith]ess; dog is forever
guardian and friend. Some boys sulk
even under good treatment; dogs
tail always smiles in respose to gen.
tie greeting,
In the best-regulated families misun-
derstandings sometimes occur. The
boy feels like no one In the world loves
him. Coming home from school, he
wishes it we're tomorrow; but
somehow his dog finds out that he Is
and runs frisking and barking
to meet him. He pats his dog on the
head and says, "You love me, don't
you, Jip?" and Jip's tail says, eyes.
with all my heart" The lad forgets his
trouble and begins anew the struggle
to live pleasantly with the masters of
other dogs.
Unless there is some real reason why
the children should not have pets, do
not deny them the very natural pleas
ure of their innocent hearts. No
doubt it Is wise to encourage children,
it necessary, in their love for animals,
for the boy who learns to be kiud to
his dog Is likely to be kind to other
people.

PREDICTS EVIL.
BAD TIMES FOR TEN YEARS.
Ugly Prophecy By "coin" Harvey.

Little Rock Special, 18th, in Atlantis
News
The election which has relegated
some of those who participated in the
campaign to oblivion has at leas
brought one sometime familiar figure
in national politics out Of the obscur
ity that had enveloped him during Its
progress. No one was less thought O.
during the campaign than w. H. Har
vey, the Chicago economist, who was
as the author of ''Coin's FinancIa
School" and kindred publications
probably next to Bryan the most talk
ed of man in 1896. His silence In 19O(
has caused many to ask where he has
been alternating, aud why he did not
come forward and champion the cause
OF the defender of 16 to l.
"Coin" has for the time retired from
politics, and is now a citizen of Ben
ton county, Arkansas, being domiclled
ct pretty country place, Silver
Springs, six miles east OF ROBBERS, where
he is enjoying farm life in all its full
ness. He is not a millionaire, but he
is in comfortable circumstances as a
result of the royalties on his books.
He found the magnet irresistible,
however, and spent the last few days
of the campaign at national headquar-
ters watching the outcome of the great
political tourney. Returning home he
gave out a statement that does not
argue we'll for the unity of the de-
feated party. He makes most Iugu-
brious predictions of the future OF the
party and the country in general. He
says the reason that he has come to
Arkansas to make his homa is that the
State has no large city and no ex-
tremely rich people, whose presence is
a menace to all liberty and rights ct
property and conscience. He declares
that civilization itself is threatened and
that nothing short Of a phenomenal
movement can save it from utter de-
struction.
"In the next decade there will be
riots, martial law, and much distress
and misery in the congested centres OF
the North, with the people hopelessiy
subjected to an influence that is slowly
bringing about their crucifxion," de-
clares this prophet OF evil. "In the
campaign just closed we went up
against the most powerful organization
in the world" he continues. ITO
have met it successfully required
knowledge Of its strength and gener-
alship that understood organization
and education of the people. 1t would
have also required two years. time to
put our forces into shape to meet the
issue. With due respect to the lead
ers placed in charge of the work, they
did not recognize the task before them.
did very little In the campaign, as
the national committee would make
no appointments for me. It wanted to
bring the gold Democrats back into
the party, and considered anything
1 would do as tending to frighten them
away. I rendered my services in the
committee free of charge, but it
thought best not to have me take
part"
