There Is gross Inconsistency here:
The robin. which Is well protected by
law In nearly all the northern states
where he breeds. becomes common
game bird when he migrates to the
southern states In the fall. and these
birds are slaughtered by the thousand
by professional dago and negro pot
hunters all winter long and may be
found on sale by the dozen in the mar
: kets Of southern cities.
If we were going into the dairy busi-
ness to make it the leading industry of
the farm we would by all means keep
cows Of q strictly dairy type, but if the.
dairy was to be only a side line, with
the horse, hog, sheep and fat steer i'm
portant farm products, we would then
make up the dairy herd with reference
to the value Of their calves as beef an
imals, in the first place expecting the
dairy type of cows to make at least 300
pounds Of butter per year and content
III the last named averaged 200 pounds.

It is the age of economies. Here is
the discovery made that the worthless
and unreliable old pine stump Of the
north lumber regions can be so treated
chemically as to make each cord Of
such stumps produce value of $3.50
in wood extracts-oil, alcohol, rosin,
tar, etc. The old stump by this proc
ess becomes more valuable than the
tree which grew upon it In the old
days.

It must have been an. awful squeeze
in the far back world building era
which formed the Allegheny noun
tains, for all the rock strata were push
ed up at an inclination of forty-flve de-
:grees. In crossing these mountains it
is rare to find any deposit Of rock with
"a horizontal stratifcat1on. 49,.

FINLAND.

Bjornstjerne, Bjornson's poem
about the use Governor BobrikoR is
making of his dictatorial powers in
Finland has been translated into Fin
nish and Russian and is read very ex-
tensively. Governor Bobrikoff has
found it necessary to mention the
poem in his organ, and his comments
are misleading but are given in tenn
Perate language: liz e.. sss,
Governor Bergh of Kuopiolan visit
ed tavernkeeper to induce him to
compel his son to perform military
service. When the tavernkeeper de-
clined to do so the governor threat
ened to annul his right to keep 9
tavern. do you mean to say that
you have deprived me of the right to
keep a tavern?" Eyes" "Well," said
the tavernkeeper calmly, "there is the
door. Get ready to leave the prem
ises. This is no tavern" And: the
governor withdrew, realizing that for
the time being he had been outwit-

The pine ridge country in Nebraska
grows forests with q rainfall of only
16 inches a year. Millions Of acres in
western Kansas upon which tree has
never grown get from 16 to 20 inches
of rainfall year, which would indi-
cate that forests may yet be grown in
that treeless region when the. right
kind of trees are planted and the right
treatment is given them

A storm cave 1s like an insurance
policy-good thing to have even though
you may never watnit to use it: One
can be made to be- entered from the
cellar for small sum, and it will seem
worth about $4,000 If some day you
see the funnel and hear the unearthly
roar Of the demon Of the air. '-..rl-ae. .@sse

saxt.r a Co.'S Cotton Letter.

New York, August 14.--Prices opened
shade better, but there was not much
business. The Liverpool reports were
good and the weather news of no special
Importance although 1t was feared that
some sections were getting more rain
than is needed and there was general de-
sire on the part of shorts to see clearer
and hotter weather. New cotton Is sun
moving, but at a very low pace and under
ordinary conditions, the movement woulo
attract not the slightest attention rms
season, however. the mere mention OF nan
a dozen bales gives tlmid bulls a little
shock Reports of small plants are gem
eral. It Is contended that there is no pos
sibility of a good crop, no matter how late
frost may be deferred. Big shipments
from, Jdverpool to New York were report
ed today. Galveston receipts were none
against 760 bales last year The New
Orleans bull leader was bidding mere LOT
q. oooo August $780, not securing any cot
ton. Gables left off unchanged to Tour
points higher with the tone steady

LOCAL MARKETS.

Yesterday was extremely quiet in all
the markets. There was nothing doing
in cotton and securities held steady
Staple groceries are steady with one
exception. Dry sailed rib bellies have
gone up Isc and are now quoted at 5bc.
There IS little news along Norris ave-
nue. Shipments continue rather light and
prices hold steady There Is not very
much fruit arriving aid that already in
the market Is not in the best condition.
Georgia peaches are selling at SIPS to
So. % per six-basket crate. The California
variety is bringing S.25 per N-pound
box. Bartlett pears are in demand at
80 70 per 40-pound box. Cantaloupes are
selling well at 75c to 81 per crate. and
the town is showed under by the melons.
Watermelons are not quite SO plentiful!
at present
Tomatoes are the only live issue in
produce There is a brisk demand for the
Alabama variety at Goo for four-basket
crates. Cucumbers are selling at 75c to
81 per crate. Green peas are 70c per
bushel.
Poultry is fairly active. All prices are
holding steady, however. and the market
is kept well supplied.
Best Elgin butter is quoted at 20c;
best country, 15d1Sc; cooking, Sd10c; Jer-
sey. 1s620c.
The feature of the produce market is
the rise in eggs. Wholesalers are now
asking is and zoe per dozen, which Is a
higher price than eggs have commanded
for quite awhile.

cothran & Co.'s Cotton Letter.

BY Gilbert &Clay.
New York. August 4.-Whether due TO
the cotton corner or to the wonder1oi
crop accounts on the one hand and the
dearth of cotton supplies on the other,
sneculation In the market here dwindled
to the smallest proportions OF the seas
on. The market this week has been dull,
llfeless and unnteresting, but there was
that element of apathy and deadliness
about 1t that furnished ample evidence
of the general indisposition on the part
of those most interested to undertake
obligations of any character. Not only
commission houses but professional trad
ers have withdrawn from the trade for
the time being On the one hand crop
accounts and the general condition OIL the
plant are such as to prevent aggressive
support or any attempt to buy cotton for
higher prices On the other hand the
knowledge that few men control the
present supply of cotton and owing to
the lateness of the crop 1t will be some
weeks before enough new cotton can be
obtained to supply American or Euro
pean spnners prevents any attempt to
sell short for a decline In prices. The
net result of this condition is dizziness.
The best traders on the floor are in the
utmost confusion as to the probable
course of the market, Until something
turns up to clarity the situation the ma
jority will probably continue In the pres
ent cautious attitude and only buy on
decline and sell for quick profits. One of
the chief events was the report of gin
ming of new cotton In southern Texas.
On Wednesday ten bales were accounted
for and one Thursday Is or 20 more. This
is the firing of the first gun and before
the end of next week cotton ginning will
be generally under way in the southern
counties of Texas. 1t will spread rapidly
until new cotton will begin to come In
to the various markets of the south In
hundreds and thousands of bales. Re
alizing this 1t is extremely doubtful
whether there will be any important and
radical change in the procrastinating at
titude of the American spinners
