The Home Industry Fad.
Farm and Ranch.

Local manufacturers are cla-
moring for patronage, by using for
all it is worth the captivating
oh rase "Patronize home industry"
which may be correctly translated
to mean, in each individual case.
patronize us! Why not leave the
producers to do just as these man.
ufacturers themselves do-buy
wherever they can do 80 to best
advantage? A labored and leng-
thy paper read before the The
Texas Cotton Growers Association
at the recent Texas Farmers Con-
gress by a Dallas real estate agent
was evidently designed to further
the same ends. He says we have
too many farmers and thinks il
would be a good thing to take
from the farming class in Texas
100000 men, women and children
and employ them in shops and
factories ito consume the surplus
food products of the fsrms," there
by assuming that people on farms
do not CONSUME any of the sur
plus products of the farm" Of
course this deduction is calculated
to surprise anybody, with the pos
sible exception of the author. But
hear him when he exclaims, what
is the real situation of the agricul-
turist? Where has the American
farmer a market for his surplus
products? Except for cotton he
has neither a foreign nor q home
market" Before making such
statement as this the author should
have informed himself somewhat.
But he was only addressing bo-
dy of farmers, who would not
know how far he was from the
facts of the case. The fact is, our
agricultural exports other than
cotton amount to nearly double the
value of our exports of cotton.
Here are the official figures for the
year ending June 30. 1902. Ex-
ports Of cotton, 1891 ,59S, 1866. To-
tai agricultural exports $857, 113.-
$50. So it seems we have, besides
something of home market,
very considerable foreign market
already, Notwithstanding the gen.
tleman's assertion to the contrary.
He also says:
"There are some plain truths
that should be kept before the
people. Among them, and per-
haps the most important, is the
fact that no people who devote
themselves exclusively to agricul-
ture have become wealthy or per-
manently prosperous"
It would seem to a disinterested
party that if people who devote
themselves exclusively to the pro-
duction of material wealth are not
prosperous it is the fault of those
who toll not nor spin, but vie with
Solomon in the matter of dress.
In the first place. the above
statement of an alleged fact as
su mes All impossibility, for no ma
ton of people can devote them
selves Exclusively" to any indus
try. But no intelligent person
will deny that this country has
been and now is devoted chiefly to
agricultural purguits. Considera-
bly, more than half our population
reside on farms, the fixed capital
of which exceeds $40, OOO,0 900, 900 or
four times the fixed capital inves-
ted in manufactures, and produces

BED HANGINGS
IN FAVOR AGAIN

Bed hangings are again in ia
shion. The daintiest and lightest
of colorings are used for them,
from white madras nets, tambour
nuslins, soft Indian silks, to bro
cades in all their exquisite pastel
shades. There are also the aesthe-
tic and quaint colorings, both of
design and dye, or the more con-
ventional patterns that will lever
retain a need of popularity. The
textures for the hangings are
beautiful. Tambour sets are de-
lightful with draperies of the same.
The French white work is exceed
ingly decorative, with a curtain of
a much thinner material. Jap
anese fabrics are always popular
and can be had in pure white with
knotted fringe, or in tan or tea
colored silk edged with lace Of
the same shade. Bedspreads and
pillow shams of lace over colored
Innings tone with the hangings.
Spreads of old hand-woven linen
with borders of antique lace are
being used again by those who are
fortunate to possess them. Many
shops are showing entire spreads
of renaissance and Marie An
toinette lace, which go so well
with the lowered chintzes. But
these are costly. There are count
less other pretty and inexpensive
designs to be seen.-London Ex-

Larry Dee sounded the gong and they
were at it. Agnew's glove drew blood

was all he ever got, He had wonderful
recuperative powers, but he was out

it little. in the first, but Weday had
him going, already.
In the second it was so one-sided
that Agnew went down to his knees
twice and almost took the count, and
then he rallied in a way that was won
derful.
He came up in the third fresh, APP
parently, but it did not last, and he
was decidedly groggy at the end of it,
hugging Weday to save himself. And
in the fourth it was all over. They
were fighting in Weday's corner when
Agnew went down from a terrific blow
in the jaw. He came up, and Weday
went at him again. like tiger, hitting
him right and left and sending him
clean through the ropes at the back
of the stage, his head striking the wall
with stunning force. Again he came
up before the count and tried to rally,
but a smash in the jaw once more
floored him and Referee Grace gave
Weday the decision. 1t was as fair
decision as was ever given in ring.
Agnew was game, but he was out of

In four rounds, before the largest
audience that has been in the Orpheum
for a long time, Jack Weday knocked
out Lon Agnew last night and made
good his title to the championship of
the islands. How long he will hold it
is another matter. The referee in last
nights fight. Jack Grace, said before
the battle that he would give the de-
cision to better man, and that he
would box the winner. And he said
that last in way that set those in
the house who knew the game to think
ing. For Grace has all the manner of
fighter-and he carries it modestly.

trade.
The men stripped well for the main
event, last night, and both looked in
good condition. weday a tribe the bet
ter. Also, he carried himself with more
of an air of self-confidence. There
were a good many preliminaries,
good lot of getting ready. Agnew OBJ
jected to Weday's bandages. and tried
to make a speech about it. but was
howled down. The audience-there
were many prominent men about town
in it. and good many members of the
Legislature, too-was not in the humor
for haggling over details. 1t had come
to see fighting. and the Introductory
bouts had been short.
So Agnew accepted>the bandages. 1t
didn't make a great difference, anyway,
as the end showed. The announcement
was made by the referee that it was I;
to be a match for fifteen rounds,
