GERMAN Us. AMERICAN.
Studying Reasons Why American
Goods SuppIant the German.
COMPETITION is KEENER.

Berlin, Mar. 1O.-Export, a trade
paper devoted to extending German
foreign trade, devotes series of arti-
cles to studying the methods by which
American goods are supplanting Ger
man goods in foreign markets The
article consists of letters from Germans
living in Mexico. Venezuela, Brazil and
Australia. The writer's explain that
the German houses are being beaten
because they are not willing to guar
antee agents fixed salaries, as Ameri-
cans do, and also because they depend
upon sending out catalogues whereas
the American keeps stocks of goods in
established agencies, where buyers are
able to purchase after seeing the goods
and therefore prefer to deal with the
Americans. The German agents, it is
added, are largely taking service with
American houses, because of the better
terms offered them and owing to their
handling exclusive American wares.
Export urges the German manufac-
turers to abandon their ''penny wise,
pound foolish policy, and give their
agents decent, fixed salaries, so as to
enable them to withstand the f1atter-
ing offers of their American COMPETE
tors, adding: "This is all the more
important since American competition
grow keener during the next ten

dirt The fourth column shows the
spurious seeds. In the fifth is shown
the total waste. The amount of seed
that would grow is shown in the last
column. This was an exceedingly poor
sample. To get one bushel of good
germinable seed man would have to
purchase over 500 of seed. Is it any
wonder that some lots of crimson
clover seed sown fail to give good 50
suits?
In Fig. the columns correspond to
those IA Fig. l. Compare the total
waste Column s. with that of the
other sample. Then compare the col
umns showing the amount Of germin-
able seed. A bushel of germinable
seed of the second sample could be
obtained for 1854, after deducting all
impurities.
This shows the necessity for farm
er to in some measure educate him
self along this line. Many and many
harvest proves a failure because the
seed was poor. Every year immense
quantities of poor seed are disposed
of to conf1ding buyers. The use of
such seed means financial loss and
disappointment.-F Review.

MI. Hoar Clears The atmosphere.

Washington, Mar. Cat the time of
inducing newly elected senators, Mr..
Hoar, speaking for the committee on
privileges and elections referred to the
constitutional procedure of administer
ing oaths to the new senators and said
that if there were any other procedure
the result would be that third of the
senate might be kept out of their seats
for an indefinite time on the presenting
of objections without responsibility
and never established before the senate
by any judicial injury. The result of
that might be, he said, that change
in the political power of this govern
ment which the people desire to ac-
complish might be indefinitely post
poned. Mr.. Hoar stated that questions
of qualification should be postponed
and acted upon by the senate after
ward. This had particular reference
to the case of Senator Smoot of Utah.

New York, Mar. 1O.-The display of
American gowns gives the Partisan
creations back seat, according to the
ma jority of the thousands of women
who fairly scrambled over each other
for the convention of the Dressmakers'
Association of America. At the Fifth
avenue headquarters, where the Pari-
sian gowns are on exhibition, crowds
examined the foreign modiste's crea-
tions, but the greatest interest was in
the American gowns.
