AS there are no meters record

proximate way OF determining
the output OF the station are the
records bf the stroke counters

Upon close observation it will
be noticed that each number of
these counters represents two

$3500.00 or in other words the
cost OF pumping 1000 gallons was

WILSON DEFENDS FIGURE
Secretary of Agriculture Says
So, 10000 Means Only the
Visible Wealth.

Washington. Feb. 23.-While
the boys OF the East are leaving
the farms and seeking employ
ment elsewhere. there is room for
optimism in farm life in some
parts OF the country, said Secre-
tary of Agriculture Wilson today
in discussing the protest of the
National Grange of West Vir-
ginia against the figures in his
annual report relative TO the
value of the wealth of American
farms.
The secretary said the figures,
$3.50, 100000 mentioned in his
report. as the value of farm pro-
Ducts last year. merely represent
ed the visible wealth OF the
terms OF the country, including
stock, cattle. grain. etc, and had
nothing to do with the cost of
making the crops.
81 know" he said, chat some
farmers assert the corn and grain
should not be counted in, along
with the stock, as the grain is
fed to the stock. But doesn't that
make the stock more valuable?"
The grange complaineH that
the figures were misleading and
represented the farmer as rolling
in wealth, giving no data as TO
the comparatively small profit he
made after the hardest sort of
work.
Last year." said the secretary,
1880 boys on Southern farms
raised an acre of corn each, and
some of them did splendid work.

WOULD DO 1T CHEAP.
Senator Aldrich Says he can Run
the Government for $780,
100000 a Year Less.

Washington. Feb. 23.-Sena-
tor Aldrich said today that if per
mittcd to do so he would under
take to run the government OF the
United States Tor $500, 600. 900 a
year less than it now costs. He
was not presenting formal pro-
position, but was making a
speech to the senate on his bill
providing for the creation OF a
commission to reform the bust
ness methods OF the government.
He pleaded earnestly or the
authority, saying that present
methods were obsolete and in
yolved the annual loss OF at least
$780, 900, 900 a year. At his in
stance the bill was so amended
as to provide that the commits
sion should be composed entirely
OF members of congress-hve
senator's and five members OF the
house.
Mr.. Aldrich spoke in response
to Senator Dolliver, who opposed
the bill on the ground that it
would create suspicion in the
minds OF the public as to the
methods of conducting the gov
ernment's business.
Mr.. Dolliver said he feared the
commission would accomplish no
god1 but much evil. He regard
ed the bill as proposition to en-
ter upon a blanket disparage-
ment of the government" He de-
clared that the commission would
cost not less than 100000 and
said he thought there were too
many commissions in the field al
ready.
Mr.. Aldrich said he did not de-
sire to serve on the proposed
commission. He spoke at length
of the duplication of the work of
the various departments. He did
not doubt that 10 per cent OF the
present expelitures could be saw
ed by commission.
Mr.. Money regarded as most
serious Mr.. Aldrich's admission
that $100,000,000 a year was be-
ing wasted by maladministration
He agreed that there should be
a commission but he did not be-
lieve that it should be composed
Of members OF congress. for he
had little faith in mixed commits
sions. The senate did not con-
clude consideration of the bill,
