Express companies nre noting that
banks are making much larger use .:
the United States mails In transport
ing currency than ever before. Hun
dreds Of thousands of dollars are daily
passing through the mails which, until
recently, were handled almost exclus-
lively by the express companies. One
of the reasons of the change, as ex-
plnined mt Denver banks. Is that the
cost is less and ns the money Is In
sured, there can be no loss, even IL the
package is destroyed en- route by fire.
The government does not agree to re-
turn to the sender money which is
stolen or lost in transit, but the insur-
ance company pledges itself to make
good any such loss. All the bank has
to pay Is the regular postage such MS is
charged for money order packages.
Some OF the express companies with
Offices In Denver claim they are glad
the change has come about as 1t re-
lieves the company Of heavy charge
for caring for highly valuable pack

than ordinary precautions as those are
considered ample. 1T is noticeable"
remarked postotfice official, that al
though more money is being carried

son Is that the robber knows the gov

Agricultural Imports.

Mr.. Frank ii. Hitchcock, chief Of the
section of foreig gn markets of the Agri.
cultural depart ment, has prepared a
bulletin showing the value and charac.
ter of our agricultural imports from
each foreign cou ntry for the five fiscal
years, 1S95-1oO0. 1t shows that our
agricultural i'm mports have an average
annual value of 1866, ,964 ,70s, of which
more than one-half came from tropical
countries. Brazil, the leading source
of our coffee supply, sent us Is per
cent of our total agricultural imports,
the United Kingdom coming next with
9.3 per cent, but the imports from it,
like those of Germany, which ranked
fourth, were in considerab BILE part re.
ceived by those nations from other ma.
tions.
Cuba was the third country, sugar
running her percentage up to rs per
cent of the total. Japan and China
were fifth and 81 lxth, respectively. The
Philippines sent us l.2 per cent of the
total. Brazil's exports to the United
States averaged S54, 1l6'307 year, cof-
fee imports alone amounting to S4s,-
100000. and being two thirds of our

Corn vs.. Pea. for rs.scn,ne r.ms.

The Ontario Experiment Station "a.
Gently conducted tests to ascertain ths
relative value of corn and peas for fat
tening lambs. The report of the tests
says: Two experiments have been
made with lambs for the purpose OF
comparing these two foods, and though
the results are somewhat contradic-
tory, they are given here for what they
are worth, and another report will be
made when further tests have been
completed
In the first experiment, eight lambs
we're divided into two groups. making
four lambs in each group One group
was fed equal parts by weight of corn
and oats, and the other group was fed
equal parts by weight of peas and oats.
the grain being ground In each case.
The average meal ration was slightly
over one and one half pounds Of meal
per lamb per day. In addition to the
meal ration, both groups were fed equal
quantities of red clover hay. In the
second experiment, change was made.
Twelve lambs were divided into three
groups of four lambs each. One group
was fed ground corn. another group.
ground peas; and the remaining group.
equal parts by weight of ground corn
and peas. At first, the lambs were fed
one pound of meal per lamb per day,
which quantity was eventually in
creased to a pound and half per lamb
per day. On the average the lambs re-
ceived 1.37 lbs of meal per lamb per
day. In addition to the meal, all
groups were fed equal quantities of red
clover hay. The first experiment con-
tinued for IA days, and the second ex-
pertinent, 104 days.
The following table shows the aver
age weekly gains per lamb. and the

Reconstruction VIII be on More Substan-

Congressman R. b. Hawley, who was

He said: "Work of vast Importance

lines than heretofore.
''Storms OF more frequency and of
greater intensity visit the coast of
England, the great lakes and the New
England coast. If they build as we
build, they would be down and out

structures to stay, and we must rebuild
our city in a manner that will resist
the gales, as they do.
This port is all right. The fullest

with slight repair, are intact, and be-
cause of these conditions, which exist
nowhere else, for the territory aud

l. In the first trial. corn and oats
gave larger gain than peas and oatA
2. In the second trial, peas alone
gave the largest gain, followed by the
mixture, corn and peas.
8. The second trial is more satisfac-
tory than the first, because 1t covered
a longer period of time, and because.
from the method of feeding, more di-
rect comparison of corn and peas was
obtained 1t is suggestive fact, also,
that the gain made by the group on
corn and peas is intermediate between
the gains made by the other two
groups, as it affords additional evil
dence regarding the superiority of peas
over corn.
4. During the second trial, ground
corn could be bought for SIT per ton.
while peas cost from 60c to 66c per
bushel. As a result, though the peas
gave the largest gain. the corn gave
the cheapest gain.
5. According TO the results OF the
second trial, IL pea meal is valued al
$40 per ton. ground corn would BE-
worth s17,35 per ton.

Tubercu'osl. in Dairy Cattle.

A report of the Illinois Board of Livs
Stock Commissioners says: The ex-
perience gained through the Tuber-
culin tests made in dairy herds by the
Board since the efficiency and accur-
acy Of tubereulin as diagnostic agent
has become establised, points very
clearly to the fact that throughout the
dairy districts Of the State tuberculosis
prevails among the dairy cattle to
considerable extent. While in many
herds only a few cases have been dis
closed, in large number of herds a
considerable PERCENTAGE has been
found affected, and there has been In
many OF these herds very conclusive
evidence of the development and
spread of the disease among cattle
through contagion. Whenever the dis
ease effects foothold in herd there
is constant danger of its spreading to
other members. thus causing, in the
course of time, great pecuniary loss.
and no cure ever having been dis
covered for the disease, the only means
of effectively eradieatipg it from the
herd is through the destruction of the
affected animals. Owing to the ina
bility of the best qualified inspectors
to discover the existence of the disease
In its earlier or incipient stages In any
animal by physical ante-mortem ex-
animation, 1t follows that the only
means of discovering all of the animals
in herd that are affected is relia-
Bile diagnostic agent, which Prof. Koch
has given the world in tuberculin. Ex-
perimentation during several years
with this agent has demonstrated that
1t is very nearly an infaliible test OF
the presence of tuberculosis in the in
ternal organs of an animal when there
are no clinical manifestations OF The
disease, and the Board has used tuber-
culin in conducting tests to discover II
herds are affected, with most satisfac-
tory results.
