cotton, corn and oat crops. They
bring him three billion seven hun
dred and fifty million each year.
There is a tariff on wheat, corn and
oats, but none on cotton. Does any
one pretend that the prices paid the
American farmer for his wheat, corn
and oats are increased by reason Of
the tariff or that the price that he
receives for his cotton Is decreased
because it is on the free list? OF
course not.
Now let's take the other side: 1t
is safe proposition that the farmers
of this country have contributed not
less than five hundred million dollars
q year for the last twenty years to
the support OF the unprotected i'll
dustries. What have they received
in return for this enormous sum?
Nothing.
II am glad this bill cuts of the
duty on the things the farmer must
buy. am glad it makes his agri-
cultural implements free. / All glad
it makes the cheap blanket free. 1
am glad it has cut down the tariff on
cotton goods to Il little over Is per
cent. l am glad it has taken 60 per
cent off the tariff on WOODEN goods. /
rejoice also for him in the reduction
in linen and flax. The farmer has
borne the burden of protection for 50
years. 1t is time he was given relief"

WEST D COTTON.

Messrs. Wolstenholmo and Holland, Of
Liverpool, write rs follows, under date
September %, with reference to the sales Of
West Indian Sea Island cotton:-
Since our last report the largest buyers Of
West Indian cotton were approached, with
q view to moving off the stock. aud, although
they have no immediate want OF cotton for
several months, they have relieved the situa-
ton by purchasing about 1900 bales, and
these will probably have to be stocked for
several months before being used.
The sales include about 500 bales st. Vim
cent chiefly from 1871. to POD, with a few
lower lots at 164d to $50, and better parcels
at Old; about 400 bales Antigua, chiefly 163d.
to lid, and the remainder composed of St.
Martin, Nevis, Montserrat, Anguilla, st.
kits, st. Croix, Barbados and st. Eustatins,
from 164d. to 173d, together with very supe-
rior stains at Id. and off coloured cotton
13G. to 15d. Whether these sales will lessen
the demand for early new crop cotton when
it comes forward, depends largely on the
quality. If the crop is better than last season,
spinners might continue to add to stock;
otherwise they naturally are not in immedi-
ate ant.--4grlcNitur0l NerS, Oct, Ill.,

FLYING UPSIDE DOWN.
Pegoud's Demonstration At BrookanJ

The French airman Adolphe Pegoud duly
repeated ut Brooklands on Thursday last
week the astonishing feats in the shape Of
flying upside down which he has been per
forming in France during the last few weeks.
With sublime confidence and Il cousummate
mastery over his machine, he described not
only an S in the ar, but a spiral col plane,
hanging head dowuwards, and a complete
and almost vertical circle. SO great an ar
fist is the airman that these extraordinary
performances, which he himself describes as
''uuite easy" gave the impressiou-a false
one, Of course-of being altogether free
from danger. Pegoud's machine is an ordi-
Bleriot sin9le-seater monoplane At 4 O'Clock
precisely Pegoud started amid cheers. He
was wearing n white sweater, and his de-
meanor was, as usual, entirely reserved and
calm. He began by climbing in a great cir
Gle from north to west, and then, turning
east, made q succession of sharp rolls to an
angle of about 80 degrees either way, as one
who endeavouIs to capsize Il canoe. The
wind aloft was evidently strong, for the ma
chine made but slow progress against it, and
drifted considerably when fly ing across it.
After climbing further, until he was at n
hoight of about 3,0O0ft, Pegond suddenly
descended in q steep spiral, continuing the
dive until his machine was travelling on its
back. For % seconds he proceeded in this
fashion, dropping slightly all the while, and
then quickly completed the S by another
dive which brought him right side up again,
At 1926 he landed, as calm as ever, and was
driven past the spectators amid q scene of
great enthusiasm.
At 4.45 Pe9oud was off again, this time to
sloop the loop" He now climbed to about
4,5O0ft, and at SIS. amid a great silence,
Owed until he was again inverted, and i'll
this attitude performed a spiral rol plano.
concluding with an S as before. On this
occasion he must have been hanging head
downwards for nearly three-quarters Of q
minute. Resuning his flight, he climbed
noain for a few moments. Then the machine
djved, carried on, stood up on its tail, carried
on upside down. and Owed again, complet-
ing the full circle. A quick descent brought
Pegouds performance to a close.
A Double "Loop."
At q second demonstration last Friday
Pegoud's feats were even more remarkable
than those of the previous day. Most dar-
ing and astonishing of all was the double
loon" in which he made his Bleriot mono
plane describe two complete vertical circles
in the air.
Starting from the enclosure Pegoud rose
in a wide circle to an altitude of about 5000
