Secretary MacVeagh's Speech
Wood Pulp and Paper

WASHINGTON. June S.-Representa-
tives of newspaper publishers, headed
by John Morris, chairman of the com
mittee on paper, of the American news
paper publishers association, will be
given hearing at $3.50 o'clock tomor-
row by the senate finance committee.
The committee has thus far taken no
action on the question of wood pulp
and print paper, and the differences of
opinion have been so great that the
outcome of a vote could not be foretold
The action of the house is regarded
as the equivalent of making wood pulp
and paper free.
Paper manufacturers have insisted
that they would be driven out of bust
ness by the house provision and have
demanded continuance of the protec-
ton given by existing law. Some SEN
ators were inclined to fix a rate of 81
ton on print paper, which is a 50 de-
crease from the present rate When
communicated to members of the News
paper publishers association, this rate
was declared unsatisfactory.

OUR WEALTH IN Farm ANIMALS.

For those who. either In exultation
or sorrow. have insisted that the auto.
mobile was destined to put the horse
out of business. there Is some informa.
ton Of real interest In bulletin just
issued by the Bureau OF Statistics Of
the Department ~ Agriculture The
figures presented In that document
show not only that the horse has not
been abolished. Tut that be- is an item
.of steadily increasing importance in
the economy Of animal industry.
II appears. for instance. that the
horse population of the United States
on jan. 7. 1909. numbered 2ocloOCO.
valued at Sl,97iO52. 900. These figures
represent an increase Of $4,000 in the
number and $lOG.522. 900 In the value
uf American horses since Jan. I. 1905.
IL will be- observed that. instead of be-
ing oXtcrminated by self-propolled We
hiclcs. 'he horse Is still In active bust
ness and on an increasing scale. A
curious fact, derived from other
sources. is that in New York. Chicago
and other cities where automobiles
are used most extensively. the horse
population is constantly growing.
The bulletin above mentioned con
tains much information as to our ma
tional wealth i'm farm animals I'm gen
eral. For example. there were i'm the
United States on Jan. l. 1909. 1858. 600
mules valued at $437. 600. an in
crease OF $4,000 in number and $2O,-
l43, 900 In aggregate value during the
year. There were 2l.72O.OOO milch
COWS, valued at 500, 945,OOO. an in
crease OF 526,OOO in number and S52.-
$50, 900 I'm total value The swine
numbered 54.147,OOO. these figures
a decrease Of 1881, 900 in
number The sheep numbered 56.OS4.-
900. valued at 1872, 632. 900. an increase
OF 1.453.OOO in number. but the total
value of the herds decreased S19.-
IO4 900.
The value Of the country's farm ami
mails Of all classes on Jan. OF this
year amounted TO a total Of S4.525. $780,
600. an increase Of S194.O2S.O 900 since
Jan. I, 1905. In other words, these
assets Of the American
people are worth enough money TO pay
the Understanding debt Of the United
States Government more than four
times over Il Is facts like these that
provoke the American farmer to laugh /
contemptuOusly at the cheap dema-
gogues who whine about his "pOv-
erty."
