Tariff and Trust Issue.


In respect to a revival of the tariff
American people know a good thing
when they have it in hand. They
will not soon forget the paralysis of
American Industries caused by the
tariff the Democrats formulated when
they last had the opportunity 1t
Quired some years, even after the
C1eveland-Wilson tariff was abolished
for the country's industries to rally
from its blighting effects. But gradu-
of a Republican tariff, normal condi-
tionS were restored, and as a conse-
quence we to-day see the era of great
est prosperity ever enjoyed by the
American people. 1t is equivalent to
an intimation that the people have
gone daft to assume that they
would be willing to exchange present
tariff conditions for the para1yzing
system that wrought disaster before
cerned, it would be a lucky thought
but for one fundamental drawback
That issue was promptly pre-empted
by the Republican party at a time
when the Democrats spurned it. The
antitrust measure, known as the
Sherman act, was passed by a Repub-
ncan congress, was totally ignored by
ton, and now it is being vigorously
enforced by the Roosevelt administra-

WHO Would Rerefft7 z

few days ago statement was
made to the senate committee by
gentleman who had investigated con
d1uions in Cuba that a large number
of sugar plantations in the island are
owned by Americans. 1t is highly
probable that officials of the Sugar
trust are among these owners, in fact
constitute a majority of them. The
president of the trust has admitted
that he invested in Cuban sugar lands
and il Is altogether likely that others
in the trust have done so. These men
would get a share of the SS, 900 900
which Mr.. Mccall says the 20 per cent
tariff reduction would give Cuba That
all of it would not go to the island is
absolutely certain. We think there is
no doubt that the sugar crop of Cuba
is very largely controlled by the trust
and that the corporation has put it
self in position to practically control
in the future the Cuban sugar indus
try In regard to the islands other
staple product, tobacco, there has just
been incorporated in New Jersey a
s35, 900 900 company to take over sew
eral important tobacco interests in
Cuba The new company is organ
lied in the interest of the Consolidated
Tobacco company, commonly known
as the trust, which now controls most
of the tobacco manufacturing business
of the United States and is preparing
to control a large part of the Cuban
tobacco industry.

a Champaign County Un.) Orchard

a Champaign County (fH-) OFSadFo-
Last week the writer had the pleas
ure of visiting the orchards of Sena-
tor H NJ Dunlap, at Savoy, Illinois
One of the orchards covers an area
of 100 acres and contains about 5000
trees, all winter varieties The trees
are already well into fruitage and
promise great things for their owner
The trees in this orchard are set about
80 feet apart each way, which is re-
garded. by Mr. Dunlap as the proper
distance apart to set ordinary trees
A second orchard consists largely OF
old trees and covers 60 acres, but the
senator counts this a fOrty-acre
orchard, that area would contain
all the trees if they were set at proper
distances. The third orchard covers
20 acres and contains only summer
and fall varieties. In addition there
is located on this place and under the
control of Senator Dunlap one of the
trial orchards belonging to the State
Horticultural society. This is for the
trial of trees and vines whose hardi-
ness and fruitfu1ness have yet to be
found out. There are thus 160 acres
in apples alone, besides cherry, plum,
pear and even peach trees IN abun-
dance. Small fruits of all kinds are
being grown and marketed. One may
obtain a liberal education in things
horticultural by going through these
orchards with the senator, who knows
and can tell about every experiment
that has been tried there
There said he to the writer. ''is
where my father had 400 trees. When
he was away one August my brother
and myself thought would do
something great So we put in the
p1ow and gave the orchard a good
going over We got the ground into
fine shape, and the trees soon showed
it by starting to grow vigorously-at
the wrong time of the year. The re-
suit was that the cold caught the wood
unripened and the whole 400 trees
were dead the next spring
There are few men that care to
publish a failure, but Senator Dunlap
says that he tells about his failures
well his successes that others
may take warning and avoid his mis-
takes. These orchards at Savoy will
repay a visit at any time. Their own

culture of Illinois by the object les

Coming to Their Senses.

The Republican majority in Con-

senses, and shows a disposition to
listen to those who advocate the let

past men posing protectiOnists have
been doing all in their power to con
tribute to the qualification of those
anxious to strike down the Dingley
act, but as the closing days of the SeS-

New Providence. Iowa, July 7th--
Little Helen Moon, the three-yeAr-

Moon of this place. had a narrow es-
cape from death.
Her mother noticed she seemed to
be very clumsy and complained when
she was rocked. Her limbs and face
were b1oated badly.
A doctor was summoned but she
got no better. He said she had Kid
ney Trouble in the worst form.
Two other doctors were called In
aid they agreed that there was very
little. If any, hope. She was bloated
all over, her eyes being completely
closed and her abdomen bloated un-
til it was purple.

improve at once. She had used nine
boxes before the Dropsy was ALL gone.
The treatment was continued and
now she is well as ever.

About once in often there bobs
up a rumor that Russell Sage has

Apple Twies and Apple Stems.

The attention of the writer was last
week called to the value of apples as
governed by their stems and the char
acter of the twigs which the ap
pies hung. In a block of the DucheS
after the great storm in central ILL
nois the ground was found covered
with the fruit. The owner of that
orchard said it was due to the lack of
pliability on the part of the twigS of
the Duchess. When these twigs are
switched by heavy wind they are so
rigid that they snap off the apples.
1t was otherwise with some Willow
TwigS near by. The long and 1ith e
twigs had SO much pliability that they
did not snap off the apples, but would
need most severe agitation by the
wind before they would part with
their fruit. After a great storm of
last year these same trees were
switched for hours before beginning
to drop their fruit, but in the end
dropped it heavily. A short storm
works little havoc with them, and few
storms are SO violent for hours to
cause fruit to fall finally.
The stems of the apples also count
for much in this regard. The Pewau-
kee has such a short stem that if the
apples are not picked as soon as ripe
they are found on the ground. Even
before ripe they fall Off in large guam
titles if they are exposed to high
the twigs that only a little shaking is
required to detach them.
These things count greatly in Sc
1ecting apples for a commercial orch
ard The Duchess is a great apple,
but this is one of its weak points.
1t is very hardy, the very standard of
hardness, but it needs to be protected
from heavy winds if possible. It is
an argument for the shelter belt, at
least in connection with certain orch
ard varieties If man have a shelter
belt he can more readily plant Ouch
ess than If he has to set out his orch
ard a location exposed to high
winds. The same rule should make
the Duchess of more value near the
Great Lakes than farther west, where
high winds are more common and
more constant

Commercial Fertilizers and Onions.

Commercial Fertilizers and Onions
In Bulletin No. 2O6 OF the Geneva
Experiment station another fertilizer
problem is discussed, one OF particu-
lar interest to onion growers, but also
one which again enforces the lesson
needed by many farmers, of economy
in the purchase and use of CONNER
cia1 fertilizers The experiments OF
four years, when different quantities
of high-grade commercial fertilizer
were used, show that 500 pounds per
acre was the most profitable amount
to apply With good prices assured
for onions. larger quantities of fer
tilizers might be used, but consider
ing all factors the onion grower runs
great risk of diminished profits when
he uses 1.500 and 1000 pounds of
commercial manure per acre. In
case of one set OF tests on rich soil
it was found that even the smallest
amount OF fertilizer was unproftable

Some professor recently mas declar-
ed that the man of the future would
have only four toes. The statement is
not particularly important, being, in

more reason to expect the man OF the

single one or none. Evolution Is so
generally accepted that its proponents
are too secure in their belief to con-
slider necessary any attempt TO for

these on the subject it Is not with
the purpose Of convincing, but to
