A NEW INDUSTRY.
Plant at Seattle to Utilize Scrap Tin
From CannerieS.

Seattle, May 18.-Thousands of tons
of scrap tin which have heretofore
been wasted on the Coast from tho de-
bris left at the salmon can establish
mepts are to be utilized and manufac-
tured into merchantable materials, &C.
cording to plans of the Syracuse smelt-
ing works, of this city. 1t is stated
that the company has determined to
install improvements and machinery
to cost $4,000, principally to utilize
this scrap tin.
The leading articles to be made are
lead pipe, tin pipe, shot,. traps and
sinker. wire and triangle solder, sash
weights. The sash weights can be
made with the sediments left after the
scrap tin is used up. When finished
the factory will steadily employ be-
tween seventy five and hundred men.
In addition to the plans for utilizing
scrap tin, the factory will take up the
proposition of using scrap copper of
every description and turn out pure
copper ingots. All the refuse left af-
ter the ingots are cast will be made
into sash weights.

ELEVEN YACHTS START IN
RACE FOR KAISER'S CUP

New York, May 18.-The contesting
yachts in the ocean race for the cup
offered by the German emperor started
from Sandy Hook lighthouse at 1915
p. m. yesterday. The previous day the
boats were recalled to their berths on
account of the heavy fog that prevail
ed then. Nine of the boats crossed
the line within twenty minutes of
each other, two being delayed for an
hour.
The race is an open one for all kinds
of craft, and those entered represent
nearly all classes, from light yacht
to a schooner. The race will end at
the rocky lodges of the Lizard, off the
coast of England.
The last race sailed across the ocean
was in 1887, when the Coronet defeat
ed the Dauntless from Bay Ridge to
Queenstown. The stakes we're $40, 900.
The Coronet covered the distance in
IA days, 20 hours and 30 minutes Sew.
eral other tran satlantic races have been
sailed for large purses and one for a
cup.
The best time of yacht across the
Atlantic was not made in a race. The
schooner Endymion in 1900 crossed
from Sandy Hook to the Lizard in
10 days, 20 hours. She averaged 10
knots for the passage, and established
a record for the course sailed.
The boats entered in the present race
are the Ailsa, Endymion, Hildegarde,
Atlantic, Hamburg, Thistle, Fleur de
Lis, Sunbeam, Apache, Utowana and
Valhalla.

Fate of the Old Hen.

After the old hen has raised her
crop OF chicks. she is not fit subject
for the carcass market. Turn her out
on the range to get strong and in good
shape to be fattened for the summer
or early fall market. IL she IL not to
be carried through another winter. II
will cost little or nothing to feed her
through the coming months and with
few months or even two months on
the range she can be pumped up so
as to fatten at the smallest possible
expense. and the carcass will be rea-
sonably tender and fairly satisfactory
to the buyer. If she is not to be set
again don't be in hurry to take her
away from the chicks. Let her run
with them as long as they will stay
with her. for she can do no harm, and
may be able to help them more or less
even though they may be half grown.

Deck Hands Strike.

Seattle, May 17.-Because of their
employers refusing to grant their de-
mand for an increase in wages, the
crews of the Sound steamers Fair
haven, Utopia and Capital City walked
off the boats last night after they had
tied up at the docks. Before quitting
the men discharged the freight brought
over from the various Sound points at
which the steamers touch. Several
days ago notice was served on the
steamboat companies that unless the
scale of wages was increased from $40
to $45 month, the men would quit
work. The officers of the various COM
panies refused to grant the demand,
and the action Of last night was the re-
suit. 1t is expected that the crews of
the other sound craft will leave the
boats as soon as they reach port this
morning.

Gagged We're Knocked Overheard

Tacoma, May IA riot took place
between $50 striking longshoremen OF
Tacoma and eighteen strike breakers
brought over from Seattle by , the
steamship Centennial last night, in
which three men are supposed to have
been drowned and ten or twelve were
badly beaten.
The Centennial had taken on the
men at Seattle to have them in readi.
ness to load the vessel should there be
any labor troubles here. When the
vessel entered the harbor she pulled
alongside the Commercial dock coal
bunk ers to take on fuel.
AS the Centennial es sed up to the
wharf scores of men armed with re-
volvers, slungshots, billies and clubs,
leaped from the wharf to her dock and
Immediately rushed the Seattle men,
who were unarmed. Capt. Pearce and
officers of the vessel declare that thirty
shots were fired by the strikers and
they are surprised, they say, that a
dozen were not killed.
When the rioting broke out call
was made for the police, but it requir-
ed some time for the patrol wagon
with six officers, to reach the bunkers.
Meantim me the Seattle men had taken
refuge in various places about the YES
sci, some barricading themselves in
rooms where they could not be reach
ed. Others ran ashore and took to
their heels. At a. m. Capt. Pearce
had but seven out Of the eighteen neil
with which he left Seattle aboard the
vessel.
Officers of the Centennial are certain
that one man was drowned. The mate
and others saw him struck with a be.
laying pin and tumble over the side OF
the sessel into the bay. Others say
that two more of the Seattle contingent
went overheard in like manner. Ow.
ing to the absence of the eleven, it il
impossi BILE to make count or to ascer.
tain ma mes. When the patrol wagon
arrived only thirty of the strikers were
at the wharf and these. ran.

Pruning Roots of Trecs.

While there may be merit in the
method Of planting known as the
Stringfellow plan. which provides for
cutting away most Of the roots of the
young tree as well as the top, it is a
plan which does not work well with
all species of trees nor in all soils.
AS result the average orchardist will
stick to the best of the old methods

Growth of Agriculture,

According to the statistical abstract
of the United States, issued from the
Department of Commerce and Labor.
there We're. in 1900. 5.739,G57 farms in
TINS country, an increase Of 1,175,O16
IN ten years. There were aged in
agriculture. in 1900. 1O,43S,2l9 persons.
while in 1890 there were $500. 1926. an
increase of 1,S72,293. The increase in
the total population for the period
stated was 13,O71,4S4, so of this in
crease over II per cent must have en-
gagged in farming.
The value Of farms and farm prop
erty increased from $16,OS2, 267 $3.50 in
1890 to $2O,514. OO1 1888 in 1900. a diff
ference Of $4,431, 734,14 The value
or farm products increased 81 ,3O4, O7O,-
20, the value in 1900 being $3,764, Ill.,
'O6. This does not include value Of
products not fed to live stock.
The total Number of acres in farms
in 1900 was S3S,501,774, the average
number Of acres to farm being 1862.
while In 1890 it was 1865. The per
cent OF improved farm land was de-
creased per cent in the last ten
years.
The greatest increase in the number
OF farms has been in the States Of Col
orado, Arizona, Idaho, Montana and
New Mexico
In the production of corn and wheat
there has been corresponding in
crease. In 1890 there were 1,4S9, 3d.
GOO bushels produced and in 1900
2,lO5, 1O2,5lG bushels, while Of wheat
in 1890 the crop was 399, 262. 900 bush
els and it increased to 522, 229, 5O5
bushels in 1900.
Thus it will be seen that whatever
the gain in commerce and manufac-
lures the relative gain in farming has
held its own. Agriculture. too, has
been lifted to a higher plane than Tor
merly. 1t is no longer said that "any-
body can farm" Agriculture is rapidly
attaining the dignity of a profession,
