Wilson's Wishes Later.

President Wilson plans to point out
specifically his wishes for the extra
session in his first message now in
preparation. This, it is known from
talks the president has had with mem
bars of congress-, will outline the ad-
ministratiOn's idea of how the tariff
should be revised and just what s4hed-
ules should be taken up. The belief is
general that the entire message will
be given over to a discussion of the
tariff with the exception of the last
paragraph or two. which will draw at
tention to the need of currency legis-
lation at the earliest possible moment,
and will indicate the purpose, of the
president to sand later a special mes
sage on that or other subjects which
he believes should be taken up by the
new congress-,
The tariff plan will be submitted
first to a caucus and then directly to
the house by the ways II means COM
mittee.
The majority of the ways and means
committee today began taking up the
administrative features of the new
tariff.
Plans will be in such condition that
whatever form of revision the caucus
determln S upon a be reported inn
mediately out of the committee, and
the whole tariff discussion formally
opened up in the house without delay.
Their will be no attempt to name the
bulk of the house committees at the
extra session, that being reserved I'M
til the close of the extra session so
as to obViate any unnecessary legisla-
ton until the regular session convenes
IN December. The ways and means

taxed as high as they a stand from
a recommending viewpoint.
Schedule CT: agricultural products)
Numerous changes, particularly a
sharp cut on lemons, a compromise
on the fight for free lemons involving
the citrus fruit interests on the Pa
cific coast; meats and cattle, whether
dutiable or free, still undetermined.
Schedule /: Free raw cotton; sub
stantial reductions on cheaper grades
OF cotton goods, practically as pro-
posed in the last congress-.
Schedule j: Retention of most of
the flax, hemp and jute rates, except
cuts on cheaper grades of linen and
other manufactures.
Schedule X: Sharp reductions on
larga varieties of cheaper wooden
products along the lines of the pre-
vious democratic bills, with a fight
still on for free raw. wool.
Schedule l.: Approximately the
present high rates on silks and silk
goods as luXuries.
Schedule M: Free wood pulp and
print paper, probably with the elimi-
nation of the present restrictions as
to reciprocity.
Schedule N: Reductions in nu-
merous "sundries," including harness
and saddlery.
Free list: Substantially the free list
proposed at the last congress. with ad-
ditions, but with the question of free
meats and cattle unsettled.

shade off to a like amount up, and
provisions unchanged to an advance of
5 cents.
ESTIMATES were current that interior
elevators and mill stocks of wheat are
29,oOO,oeO bushels more than last year,
farm reserves $4,000, 600 bushels more.
and enough increase in the visible to
make the total 70, 000, 900 bushels in ey-
cess of the aggregate supply IL months
back. This was declared to mean thai
the United States could export So
100000 bushels if there were foreign
buyers for that amount, prior to the
coming in of the new crop.
AIthough wheat prices gave way I'M
der bearish arguments, it was not I'M
til after several hours bullish control.
tlattering reports on the growing crop
southwest helped to turn sentiment in
favor of a decline, and SO, also, did the
siackness of call for mill wheat at Min
neapolfs and Kansas City.
S5aboard clearances of wheat were

667 600 n year ago.
IN spite or the weakness Of wheat,
corn held steady because of covering
by shorts on account of a forecast for
unsettled weather.
oats hardened because % belief
that n reaction was due after a con-
tlnuous break for almost a week.
Heavy run of hogs at nearly all
packing crnters gave firmness to the
provisions list. The market also was
helped by the small stocks on hand in
packing houses as shown by the semi

THE RATS BIG BOARD BILL.

B. F. w. Thorpe, of the staff of
Farm and Fireside, the national farm
paper published at Springfield, Ohio,
contributes to the current issue of that
periodical a most interesting article
on grain-saving cribs, bins and gran
aries. He shows how rat-proof store
houses of ample capacity can be pro-
vided at low cost. On the subject of
the number of rats in our country
and the amount of damage they do,
Mr.. Thorpe presents the following
facts as a sort of introduction to the
specific suggestions he gives as to
how to build rat-proof receptacles for
grain:
Uncle Sam has never attempted
reliable rat census, but, taking the
country over, we no doubt have a rat
population of twice or thrice the hun
dred-million mark.
Some of our expert figuring sharps
have arrived at the conclusion by diff
ferent processes of reasoning that
round hundred million dollars worth
of grain is destroyed annually by rats
This tidy sum is approximately suffi
cient to feed and clothe a hen for each
man, woman and child of our repub-
lie and outlying territory. To put it
differently, each family of five could
keep a little flock of five hens in place
of its allotment of a dozen rats. The
five hens, with the good care usually
accorded the small flock, could be
counted on to furnish fifty dozen
strictly fresh eggs for the home larder
annually
Let me put this big financial prop
ositton still differently. Two or three
hundred million chicken-k killing, dis
ease-carrying rats cost us an annual
grain-tax of five dollars family. II
exterminated and their living turned
over to a half or third as many pro-
ductive hens, each family, instead of a
five-dollar tax, would have an eigh-
teen-dollar income. This would be
equal to a credit balance of $36O.OOO,-
900 for the nation. 1t looks if our
grain, doesn't it?
"Our rat population will thrive and
multiply just so long as we continue
to harbor and feed them in ram
shackle cribs and granaries and fur
nish them haunts under wood-floored
buildings, junk piles and other Sc
cluded hiding-places in which to null
tiply.
Concrete floors and foundation
walls and supports of the same ma
terial or of solid masonry, together
with metal or wire-screen lined bins
and cribs, will solve the rat problem.
Keep the rat in the open, bar his grain
supply, and he viii be down and out"
