ACCORDING to a bulletin issued by the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor, the total value of
agricultural products exported from the United
States for the eight months of the fiscal year
1906, ended with February, was 500, 200, OOO
as against $57O,OOO,OOO in the same period of
1900 $664, 100000 in 1902 and $56S, GOO, 900
in 1905. The growth in the exports of agri-
cultural products, says the bulletin, occurs in
all of the three great groups which form the
bulk of agricultural exports, viz, breadstuffs,
cotton and provisions, the latter term including
meat and dairy products. The gain in bread
stufs was 7O,OOO,OOO, in provisions $50, OOO,-
900 and in cotton $3OOOOOOO. The percent.
age which manufactures form of exports in the
\eight months ended with February, 1906, is
1928, while they formed but 27.2% of the to-
tai exports in the corresponding months of 1908
and 22.5%S in the corresponding months of 1898.

JUST what municipal ownership means to the
taxpayer is to be seen by comparison of the
financial standing of the telegraph lines of Eng
land under private and public ownership The
New York Times has been making an inquiry
into this phase and it says editorially:
"Our correspondence from London gives some inter
esng facts the cost Of the Government operation oil
teegraphs in the United Kingdom which the advocates
OF public ownership and operation Of public utilities
would do we'll to study Taken in 1901, when
they paying to the profit OF 81, 10000
year, the tegaphs cost the Government that is to say,
the taxpayers last year Of expenditure
over receipts besides 81 in interest the pur-
chase money, net loss of 5,96s5O0. The service is
much complained Of but il it excellent it is plain
that those enjoying it doing at the expense Of those
who do not it,"
Government operation of the telegraph lines
in Great Britain, says The Times.Star, has been
one of the favorite arguments of the dem.So-
cialists, but it is evident that they have never
inquired into the detail of cost-but as the ma
jority of them pay no taxes it is not apparent
that this feature should perplex them.

sHEEP-The official count gave yester.
days receipts of sheep as A,Il. The total
number OF cars was IL, which was only Ave
less than the largest run In the history OF
the market. AS noted yesterday. the mar
ket opened a little slow on account of the
very large receipts and the reported lower
market at Chicago, but later on. under the
influence OF the very good local demand, It
good feeders In many cases sold even
stronger. While the trade was active, the
receipts were SO large that, although every
one kept busy from early In the morning,
at night. When they did close, though.
there was very little left unsold aside from
throwouts and miscellaneous trash. Sellers
without exception were very much pleased
with the market and buyers also seemed
well satisfied, so the trade as whole was
entirely satisfactory to alt concerned.
When the market opened this morning
there were about 10 fresh cars in sight
and, while there were plenty of desirable
sheep and lambs among the arrivals there
tunatelyr buyers were In large attendance.
so that the market opened early at steady
prices. In spite Of the large receipts OF the
last few weeks II Is very evident that the
Is still a large demand for feeding stock

.CATrLE-Yesterday's receipts of cattle
proved much larger than anticipated, the
trains coming In until late In the afternoon.
The oficial count shows the total arrivals
to have been 400 cars. or l0.A7 head. AZ
several trains did not arrive until after
the market had closed, quite q good many
cattle were carried over until today.
This morning there was another large
run, over 800 cars being reported In the
morning. In spite Of the large receipts the
best grades of beef cattle were generally
steady. Good cornfed steers sold as high
as $6.8, with the best rangers at S5.8.
There were, however. good many com
mon 10 medium kinds OF cattle, and they
were all slow and generally lower. Warmed
up cornfeds were especially slow sale, as
they come into direct competition with
the range beef. which buyers seem TO
prefer.
There were all Of 100 cars of cows and
heifers on sale this morning. With no
more than the usual buying demand. pack
ers were not slow to see that the advan-
tage was all on their side and the heaviest
buyers started out right from the first
with a determination to take on at least
1Oc. The general market could safely be
quoted that much lower than yesterday.
Good feeders, having weight and quality
did not seem to be especially plentiful and
as that kind Is very much sought after
II was no trouble to secure steady prices
on the other hand. buyers were inclined
to go slow when II came to the common
and medium grades, and they generally
tried to buy them lower than yesterday.
