A WoMAN's SUGGESTION.
How to Insure an Increased Demand
for the Product Of American Skill,

TOW TO insure an Increased Oemsno
for the Product Of American Skill.
In a contribution to the American
Economist Grace Miller White brings
forward the suggestion that II the
women of the United States were to
act in concert in buying and using
only fabrics, materials and articles
that are of American make they could
revolutionize trade and labor condl-
tons in this country. This writer,
who has gone much deeper into econ
omics than is the habit of her sex to
go, demonstrates that by uniting In
a common determination to patronize
none but home industries the women
of America would bring about an
enormous increase in production, and
with 1t better qualities, more accept
able styles and cheaper prices. AS the
matter now stands Paris Is the
worlds great market for novelties
of all kinds in women's wear. A man.
ufacturer In England, France or Ger
many, being assured of world mar
ket IN Paris, increases his unit OF pro-
duction to meet that certain demand.
Among the mercantile buyers who as.
semble at Paris at different seasons OF
the year the buyers from the United
States are by far the most liberal pur-
chasers for they buy for q country
whose purchasing power and consum-
ing capacity is twice or three times
W great per capita as that of any
other country. Hence, under the con-
ditions supposed-that is, where
American women and men should
have united in using none but Ameri-
can made goods-an enormous trade
would be transferred from Europe to
the United States. Consequently our
domestic producers. being now as
sured of the domestic market with its
vast purchasing power and consuming
capacity as whole, coupled with a
vastly greater per capita purchasing
power and consuming capacity, would
find our S0,000.000 OF population a
consuming market equaling 100000
0G0 consumers in any other part Of
the world.
The dream of such state of things
Is not altogether fantastic or impOs-
sible Of realization. Much has oc-
Cured In the past five years Of pro-
lection to help make the dream come
true. Much more could be done to-
ward realization II the women of this
country, and the men, too, were to
decide that the things made by our
own people were good enough for our
own people to wear and use. They are
good enough, and some day we shall
End out and act accordingly. In the
meantime any progress along the line
OF finding out is to be encouraged and
commended. To the largest possible
extent the people of the United
States should answer in the affirma-
tive the question. Shall the Republic
do Its own work.

The Worlds Wheat Crop.

According to Beerbohm's estimates
the worlds wheat crop this year IL
1851, zoo, 900 bushels Of go pounds,
against 2,801 100000 such bushels in
1901. a difference of $4,000 900 bushels
in favor of this year. This is the larg-
est crop since that Of 1898, which
Beerbohm puts down at 1852, 400 900
bushels of 60 pounds. The crop Of
the Southern hemisphere included in
these figures is in each case that Of
the harvest following the European
harvest Of the year for which the es-
innate is given. Thus the estimate
for 1902 includes the estimated crops
to be harvested In the Southern hemi-
sphere a few months hence. The crop
of Argentina to be harvested In No.
vember, December and January next
is put down at 100000 bushels, q
considerable increase on the last crop
Of that country. Uruguay and Chill.
too, are credited with increased crops,
but the crop OF Australasia is esti-
mated at only 100000 bushels.
which is less than the production of
any recent year, although short crops
in that part of the world have. with
only two exceptions, been the rule for
almost decade past.

STRIKE IN JAPANESE SCHOOL

Students Demand the Dismissal Of

We had to report recently a strike
on the part of The students Of the
Miye Middle School. writes the
japanese Mail. On that occasion the
fault seemed to be largely on the
side Of the faculty of the school and
the governor of the prefecture. News
now comes of strike at the Middle
School Of Oita, in which the stu
dents appear to be chiefly to blame.
The account given in Tokyo journals
10 that the elder students, angered
by some severe structures passed BY
Mr.. Tiki, one of the teachers, against
an increasing habit of imbibing sake,
demanded his removal. Apparently
the principal yielded 30 far as to sus.
pend Mr.. Uki, but, at the same time.
he rusticated some Of the students.
This led to q renewal and stronger
demonstration on the latter's part.
They drew up a document arraign.
Ing the principal and the teachers on
various counts and demanding the
dismissal of the whole faculty. Thir.
teen of them were now expelled, with
the result that meetings began to be
held outside the school for the pur.
pose of planning a general strike.
The trouble Is not over. OF course

Turkey and Chicken Crop


"From all reports there will be .
shortage in the turkey crop this
year." says w. ~. ogden In the Sioux
City, Iowa, Tribune, but 1t is In
possible to approximate what the
shortage will be as the turkey season
will not be on until October. This
has been a bad season for growing
turkeys owing to the heavy rains.
Young turkeys will not thrive In wet
weather Last year there was q short
age in the amount Of turkeys raised
because Of the scarcity Of the food.
Then the crop was only about 70 per
cent and from all reports 1t will be
still less this year. don't believe
there will be much Of a falling on
in the number of chickens raised this
year. So far the market looks good
with prices several cents higher than
last year. At this time last year
spring chickens sold at nine cents
per pound. This year there Is an In
crease of two cents in the price. Inc
market price for hens also Is about
two cents higher than last year. This
increase, however, Is not due to
shortage in the crop, but Is brought
about owing to the high price OF
meat. Because of this raisers are
eating chickens instead Of sending
them to the market.

Money In Good Fruit.

This is the exact truth OF the situa.

pears. peaches or any other kind
Largo peaches, for instance, always
bring fancy price. That great peach
grower, r. Morrill, of Michigan, long
ago realized this truth. and SO every
year thinned the peaches In his orch.
ard till he had growing only those that
would make large fine peaches. The
result has been that he has sold year
by year peaches In immense quantities
that brought fancy prices. But as yet
few growers are practicing this sen.
sible act. having either not the
knowledge OF its value or the grit to
do 1t. II takes some grit to pick of
thousands OF peaches at time when
thes fruit Is small and when II does
not seem to be overlooking the trees.

there are rows of the stirring three

Old Story; Modern Application.

There is an old story of pumpkin
who saw a fowler take aim at a bird
in the topmost branch of tree, and
who, when the gun had been dis
charged and the bird came down with
a thud to the earth observed: THAT
was a waste of powder; the fall alone
was enough to kill the bird"
The Democratic party has always
been addicted to equally shallow criti-
cism. In the 70s the Democrats of
Wisconsin were greenbackers. They
bitterly denounced the resumption
net; and when resumption was fol
lowed by return OF prosperity they
refused to admit that the resumption
act had anything to do with the i'm.
provement of business. In 1896 they
furiously attacked the gold standard,
having previously taken advantage of
a brief lease of power to run afoul OF
the protective tariff. When Republi.
can legislators enacted the Dingley
law and placed the currency upon a
sound basis. and prosperity returned
after dreary years Of panic and de-
preston. the Democrats said the pros
perity would have come anyhow, from
the revival OF confidence. their eyes
were tightly closed to the fact that
sound currency and the Dingley tariff
were the conditions precedent to the
revival Of confidence, without which
confidence would not have revived any
more than the bird that provoked the
pumpkins foolish remark would have
fallen II II had not been shot.

Boyd, the elder, was first examined and
