Crops and Prices.

When the free traders are not deny
ing the existence Of prosperity or
sneering at the man who appreciates
full dinner pail. they are trying to
explain the industrial history of the
last four years by "big crops" One
such free trader, in newspaper let
ter, even presents figures to show how
"big crops" during Harrison's admin.
lstration explain the prosperity of
those years, and how the small crops
during Cleveland's second term are
accountable for the lean years we saw
then. Neither the figures given for
the amount of wheat produced during
the years cited or the prices quoted
agree with the figures given by the
United States statistical abstract, but
we have 40 desire, nor is there any &C.
casion, to 60 into the matter now.
The one thing which catches the at
tention of one reading the commune
cation, and In which both the figures
quoted and those Of the statistical abb
stract agree, is that the lowest aver
age price paid for wheat per bushel
during any one Of the protection years
of Harrison's administration is higher
than the highest average price paid
for wheat per bushel during any one
of the free trade tariff reform years
under Cleveland.
The usual rule of trade is that the
greater the supply of commodity the
lower the price; therefore the larger
the crop Of wheat the lower the price,
But the rule is reversed in this case
We had larpe crops and high prices
during protection years; small crops
and lower prices during free trade
days. There is something wrong, as
usual, with the reasoning of our free
trade friends. The larger gross amount
paid for the larger crops of agricul.
tUral products in protection years is
undoubtedly the cause OF much OF the
prosperity Of the farmers. Needless
to say 1T applies to no other class of
our people, and all are prosperous.
But even In the case OF the farmers
the larger gross amount paid is due in
much greater Measure to the better
prices which resulted from the heavy
demands made by busy people for
the farmers products than TO the
mere fact that crops were big. Big
crops with no demand for them would
bring in no more money than would
small crops. The price would drop as
the supply grew greater. 1t is the In
creased demand for wheat and for 9th.

suited from the universal employment

Ship Subsidies a Business PrOpO

There is but one way to look at the
proposed ship subsidy. and that is in
the light of purely business PROPOSE

There is vast difference between
$4,000 and 2OO,OOO,OOO. If we put
up our money we shall expect it to re-

AS to the argument that only rich
ship owners will be benefited, that is
false on it's face. When we build ships
we give employment to American
workmen and American shipyards.
When we sail these American ships
we employ large number of Ameri-
can seamen. When we pay freight

money does not 60 abroad, but re-

Men do not like to go to doctors Nine
times out of ten they wait until they are
laid fat on their backs before they will
consult physician. There is some reason
in this, for when business man feels out
of sorts and goes to physician, he is often
given violent drugs that make him, for a
time, unfit for business and really sick.
There is way of avoiding both extremes
that of neglecting the health and that of
taking violent drugs that rack the entire
system-it is always to keep on hand a
bottle of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. If man will resort to this great

The West Is Ready.

A recent dispatch from Omaha,
Nebraska, says:
So scarce has manual labor become
through the West that employment
agents representing railroads operat-
ing west of the Missouri have been
sent to New York and other Eastern
cities to secure men to work on the
tracks and grades through Nebraska,
Wyoming and Utah. Wages of
railroad workers are now So so per day
and board throughout the West. This
is double what this form of work has
commanded in past years. Not
in the history of the West has railroad
labor been so difficult to secure as to-
day. On every hand railroad work
has been suspended because labor can
not be secured.

CARRIER PIGEONS IN WAR.
The Post Established at Ladysmith
south Africa. Has Been
Success.

The pigeon post established at Lady
smith and Durham for carrying war
messages has been such success that
special appropriations for increasing
the service will be recommended by the
war office. \ good deal of this success
of the pigeon service is due to the skill
and energy of Col HaSSard. of the royal
engineers, who has spent years in
pigeon culture for inst this sort of an
emergency and he has demonstrated
the fitness of birds for war purposes.
Col. HasSard. who was stationed at the
Cape before hostilities broke out, sys-
tematically trained the pigeons for
carrying messages across the rough,
mountainous laud and his various pi-
geon posts were of the greatest value in
keeping the office apprised of the exact
condition Of the army.
There are 1000 homing pigeons on
the books of the British navy and sew
eral times this number on the books of
the army. In the past ten years the
United States army and navy depart
ments have been interested in the car
rier pigeons and we have posts estab-
lished at different points throughout
the country. Their services have been
useful chiefly in the navy and expert
ments are being made constantly in
communicating by this means between
the shore and the ships. There is no
system of registering homing pigeons
in private lofts and in an emergency
the government in need of more pi-
geons would have to depend upon the
patriotism of the private owners for
increasing its supply. That there would
be plenty of volunteers no one doubts
for a moment.-Collier's Weekly.
