Washington December 2S.-(SpeciaD.- A recent shipment of 1000 tons of po- tatoes from Scotland to New York 70 s,1pply the demand for consumption fin the latter city aroused Secretary James Wilson of the United States department Of agriculture to the making of few remarks about the growing of food pro- ducts at home.
 He nointed to the hundreds of acres oi waste lands in Virginia and Maryiano within easy reach of Washington that might be made to grow some of the food products that are so high and oftea scarce on the local markets.
 But potatoes, eggs. butter, milk meal and most all the other food products that are consumed by the ton in Wash hington are shipped in from some other section of the country. The same story may be told of every other city in the country. There is no home supply any where.
 This is peculiar condition or commerce. It Is the law of supply and demand.
 Though Birmingham uses tons and tons of Irish and sweet potatoes every year the potato growers of Bessemer cannot get a decent market at home for their products. While they are unable to get living price at home the home mer- chants are paying higher prices for Che same potatoes shipped in from foreign market.
 The finest strawberries in the world are grown in Cullman. The citizens of Gull man who does not raise his own berries %9arely ever enjoyes the luxury of berries on his own table. They are not for sale at home. They must be shipped away and are shipped away.
 The farmeriss wife gathers up all the eggs that are laid on the farm yard and sends them to the market to exchange for salt bacon, flour, and other food stuffs that are not near so pure. and wholesome as the products that she is bartering. Her family may be treated to the rarity of poaehed eggs on Sunday The same is true of her butter and any other saable products of the barn yard
 Fewer oranges are consumed in the countries dotted with golden orange groves than in the countries where oranges will not thrive.
 r It is the human desire for the things that you haven't got that makes com merce and trade.
 We are never satisfied with what we may have in abundance at home. Our de- sires are for the things that are not our

own. Jefferson county must ship it's po- | tatoes to the east and the east must ship it's potatoes to Birmingham. 1 It is the same rule that impelled tn. early cotton planter to ship his cotton tc England and to New England for manu-
 facture by people who never saw thS
 blush of cotton bloom. On the same
 principle the southern farmer with fer | tile acres that can grow more corn tc
 the acre than any land in the world de- voted them to the production of cotton
 at an uncertain expense and depended
 upon the west for his supply of corn. | But this sustains commerce and trade l Perhaps it is all right. But we must be
 content to pay the price if we do not like the remedy.

 | The friends of John Sharp Williams, senator from Mississippi, are boosting him as the probable chairman of the finance committee of the Senate when that body | is predominated by the democrats which | is expected in the very near future. Senator Simmons of North Carolina claims seniority on the committee and has eyes on the chairfnanship, but It is claimed that he has so often been out of l line with the party on tariff questions he cannot claim a certainty on his promoti tion l to the place of high honor which really carries with it the leadership of the ma | jority on the floor of the Senate. Senator Williams, though serving his | first term in the Senate, was honored with a place on the finance committee | This is considered as quite a compliment | to his ability coming as it did from an opposition party when he was a member of the minority.
 | Senator Williams would make an ad. | inirable leader in the Senate and his | friends would like to see him elevated to | the position. He made an enviable rec | ord as floor leader of his party while ht | was a member of the House, and it is | considered certain that he would injeei | new life into the proceedings of the Sen ate.
