Meeting of tbe County Agricultural and Horticultural Society. An Able Addrtst by Dr. Ryland T. Brown Tin Boa. J. B. Conner Speaks on "Corn and Porte" The Ifariun County Agricaltaral and Horticultural Society met Saturday afternoon in the rooms of the state board of agriculture with the i-resident, Isaac II. Furnas, of Bridgeport, Ind., la the chair. . The chair announced that the object of the meeting was to listen to addresses by Dr. Ryland T. Brown and It B. Conner, on subjects pertaing to agriculture. THX RELATION OF AORICCI.TCBC TO TtlK OTHER I5DC81BIES. The following is a brief extract from the excellent address ol Dr. Brown: Agriooltare, In Its broadest sense, Is the production of vaJut-8 by growth from the earth. In this sense It includes horticulture, floriculture, arboriculture and Kiuolo?y, or frultculture, added to tle direct prod action of sm n, grass, textile and root crps. ana trie indirect production of animals for food, whether as flesh, or lndlivctly a dairy or poultry products, etc Tlil 1m tlie -wide-tand most varied field of bnmau li dustry, and of right, occu. pies th central position In the family of In dustrial puruiU. but whle this is true, aud even more thau thin, wnue we admit tliai not only the king's table, but ah tables are supplied fiom ttie field, at.d in civilized w-clety. agriculture r.ronucea the raw niaterlal of food and clothing nenrly In Its entirety, yet It is very far from being Independent. Indeed, the more linpottanl agriculture becomes, the more extended and complicated are Its relations, aud the more dependent does U become on the Industrie which pur chase and work np its raw materials. To Illustrate this principle let tis take the present wheat crop ot the Lnlted Mates, which Is said to b the largest crop of that cereal ever produced by any nation on the globe. The possibility of cultivating lb I crop depended primarily on the improved farm implements in use. Indeexl.lt Is but fair to acknowledge that the great Improvement In modern agriculture Is to be largely credited to the mechanical improvements aud inventions by which the farmer is ab'e to make his labor more productive, and to do his work be'ter. I apeak from personal knowledge when I say that with our present plows, pulverizers, barrows aud seed drills, n acie of wheat can be put in, and the work better done, with half the labor that was required to do toe same work fifty years ago. But the lab.ir-oavlng at tbe otner end of the crop is even greater than here. My memory carries me back to tbe time when wheat, and all small grain, was harvested with tbe Richie a single handful at a time a period when the reaping of an acre of wheat a dxy was an achievement to be talked of In all the neighborhood, and remembered In after years. It would have required half the men In the civilized world to Have such a wheat crop as this country produced last year. Arter It was safely In slack It would hnve required the same army of ableNslied men all this winter to thrash It with tbe flail. That I may not be misunderstood In what I have said, a-wu l as what I am about to say, yon will al ow me to dtnne explichiy what l mean by legitimate industrial pursuits. In that term 1 include all laOor, whether of baud or of brain, wM'h adds to the common good in any way. The man who adds 0uu to the tax-paving property of the state, or who trains the mind aud lictrt of youth lor hinder usetulni,(ir who alleviates the physical tutlerlng and assists in restoring to health either yourself or fami y, or who trains jour titan and conscience to a higher apprv-ciat on of moral duty and responsibility, or who agists oti In Obtaining your Just rights in court, or who lor a fir profit furnishes yon with the necessities and conveniences af lif iroiu other natloiiH and remote lai.dsiu exchnge for the surplus products of your ttrm or worksliop, or who through the pres supplies yur center table with reading matter which will make you wiser, bet er and happier; or. In short, wtioeverdoe that which ministers to the public good who augments the sum total of social, domestic and Individual happiness, in tngaged In a leiiio ate iudu try. and is an important choid in the harmony of society. But it is my unpleasant tax 'i now to turn to you the other side of this ptctnre; for, alas! it has another side. If society has its harmonies, it has also its discord. If it has lis nnliy, it has also its antag interns, and I confess, 1 turn to tbese with a sad heart. Tnere are those who seek to accumulate the money wbtcb has been earned by the honest labor and faithful toll of others, without contributing anything, on their part, tbat will add a dime to the wealth or the country, or conduce in any way to the well-being of hoc ety or add to the happiness ot a sinle individual, beyond the circumscribed circle of self. To this ciaas belong a large section of socle' y, ranging from the stockjobber and respectable grain gambler, through the ranks of liquor sellers, professional gamblers and smaller confidence men, down to the tramps who prefer to be or Meal rather than to oo auy useful la or. These tOand In direct antagonism to the legitimate Industries that r-tuni to society a proper equlvalei-t. They are parasites which fasten themselves on the body social and often acquire fortunes and attain to positions in the aristocracy of wealth for which they have never given au honest day exeri Ion for the benefit of society. When he sha.l be greatest, who serves society most lailbiuliy, these will Kink to their proper level. Till then, they must be endured. CKX ASD POBK. At the conclusion of Dr. Brown's address the Hon. J. B. Conner spoke as follows on the subject of "Corn and Pork." "When this subject was assigned me for discussion , the desire wan that U should bo considered from u economic and business standpoint, and thl shall be done in the bikieht aul most direct way. Hundreds of fanners have come almost to believe that it is no longer profltab'e to grow corn and hos, hitherto two of our erestes. staple. It la ezcee singly hard to become reconciled to redu eU pricwa nd wage. We art all apt to consider, without much tho ight of course, that the reduction is aloue In that ltrie of our cpeeUltleit, aud that the hardship falls especially upon us. But when we consider the facta ibiut ns we find really that reductions f- prices have gone on proportional lyT-In nil direction and In all commodities. We find that woolen and cotton domestics of every k.nd, as well as goods In the grocery line, ar as low and in iom Insta "ce- lowtr than they were twenty and thlrtv years ago i he reports of Ukj commissioner of stat ist ids oflS-Ushow tbat farm labor was just about what it Is now. It will not do to take a sirgleyearto determine prices of any commodity upon whicu to has ludszmenta to whet tier it is pro 11 table or not. I hve, therefore, elected two periods, of ten years each, in wlilcli to present tins matter. It may be observed, also, that the two periods selected r a Mr averajn of all the pre vious and subsequent years. The statistics here qn ded are made up from the actual mar ket OUOTatlOUS OI lire tinny aim ctiiim-rciavi press during the period of years named, and are, therefore, accurate. The prices given are the average prices In New York City for January of ecn year: PMICK or CORN FOB TEN TEARS. Year. 1K').

During this deoaHe It was highest In 171, when the price was tJS 75, and lowett lu Ibl'i, when It wua but f 13.2a per barrel. Thus we t-ee that both corn aud hogs have advance I beyon l previous prices. Now what are the facts respecting tbe production of pork from corn t It iswell-anown that, 80 years ago the breed of hogs then grown by larmers required two years' growth and feed before tbey matured and w- re marketable. Tnat was before tbe Improved breeds were much Introduced. Now wo grow hogs heavier and better fitted for market at 10 to la months old. it la estimated that It does not require much more than half the quantity of corn to prepare our present breed of hogs for market than that retired 30 ytars sgo. I need not cite more definite data for proof of thi statement, for the facts are with in the memory of all of us. The quotations of the prices of pork to which I have r- ferred, show that hogs in the last decade averaged 37c. per pocrwl in our own markets. It was rather above this, but I will take this as a fair basis. Repeated experiments and tests in all sections of the country, show that one b ishel of corn will make from 9 to 16 pounds of pork. The latest experiments with our Improved breeds, demonstrate that 12 pounds ot pork are produced by one bushel of dry fed corn, and four to five pounds more per bushel Is produced by boiling the corn, or feeding It In the shape or meal. Any one can readily see what price these figures would make corn per bushel. If fed cry, the price per bushel would be nearly 44 cents. Now let us see what It costs to produce corn. There have been many calculations and estimates on this subject. We give what Is believed to be a fair estimate for an acre : Plowing one acre costs...-, Harrowing one acre costs. Planting with m. chine Cultivating four times . Extra lubor, etc 17 a Tbe wages of a hired man and team are estimated at three dollars per day. Counting the crop to average 40 bushels per acre, this makes the corn cost a fraction over is cents ver bushel. The cost of busking and hauling Is about seven cents mote per bushel. Tnls would mske the corn cost about. cents per bushel. If the average per acre was 40 bushels. Now it is true that hogs are as low to oay as they were 40 years azo But other things, except labor, are equally as low as they were 40 years ago. These facts seem to be inconsistent with what we all denominate hard times, and with what we feel in mfelntr current bills of expense. Why is this sot The reason Is to be found la the fact that all of us Indulge in more luxuries than we did years ago. We have finer carrisges, better and more expensive roads: indulge In more ornaments, etc. Furthermore n.anyare paying debts contracted when the pi ices of all commodities were higher. Taxes and public expenses have not been minced as other things have, and this Is another factor which enters into the buideus of tbe present day. If all men were out of debt, and if taxation and public expenses were reduced in propor tion to the reduction or otn-r things, we should all realize readily enough tbat corn and P'ir weie equally as profitable a any other product. 1 nave not consiaerea tne matter or losses oy the disease known as cholera, wbieh has swept over the country in the past three or four years, nor yetoiuie nooas ana ere mat have periodically swept away the farm pro ductions. These losses have been heavy, but they are periodically Incident to all oth-r pursuits. We can only determine the profit there is in any pursuit by tbe average results In a series of year The rutins' prices of hogs at this time are, in deed, very low too low for profit. Buf we should remember tbat during three or four yt-ars of ihe past ten, tbe price was from lb to $7 per hundred pound. Tne years during the past decade, wnen hogs ruled to hign, compensated for present prices. This fact shows the Importance of considering the prices of products during a series oi years, in order to determine whether the production of them is prontabie or not. At the conclusion of Mr. Conner's address the society adjourned. Cremation n m Bleaaa of Disponing; of tne Dead. Tbe Bavarian authorities are at present somewhat agitated over the subject of cre mation as a means of disposing of tbe dead. In order to ob tain tbe popular opinion on the subject, a committee was appointed who in terviewed the I'rotes'ant, uathoiio ana Israelite congregations on permissive cremation. Tbe Catholics will have nothing to do do with cremation; tbe Israelites ret use to eiprrjs an opinion; the Protectants say it would only imply a change of direction in the liturgy, aud tbe board of heaih reeommended cremation in the following con-tinz-ncies: First After battles. SJCond Daring epidemics. Third For the conveyance of remains to distant pern: and i ounh Whera the soil is unsuitable xor banal purposes. "While, of course, many persons have religious scruples against (Cremation, there are not wsnuog considerations in its favor. The teople generally have become CO thoroughly used to the plan of interment that any suggestion as to a new memod oi disposing of one's dead relatives or frunds, is received with great opposition, as are all departnres from ancient and time honored customs. However much dislike at the charge is expressed, much good might come of it, ifmde. In the first place it may be argued that it would be greatly beneficial to the health of the people generally, and the people who live in the vicinity of cemeteries particularly, tbat tbe bodies of the dead be burned. The adbes, which would not be very large in bulk, con d be buried in a vace and a suitable moumeut erected over them. Should water by any nif aos find entrance to tbe vase and, percolating through tbe ashes, find its wsy into neighboring wells, it would have little if any effect upon tbe health of tt.ose who drank from the well. Far differ ent is the case at present People residing near cemeteries know that a peculiar taste is imparted to tbe well water in the neighbor hood, if tbey do not know its cause. Ihis Impure water, as it most certainly is, must La7e a bad e QVct on the human economy and sooner or later render ill the person who uses it. Another reason for cremation in preference to inhuniition is that derived from the recent disclosures of tbe operations of resur rectionists. There are probably few persona who would not prefer to know that the ashes of their tnevai r.-sted pe.iceiuny in tne earth than to be haunted with the thought tbat the body was in a dissecting room, and, after an examination, find tbat the grave of some loved one bad been desecrated and tbe body removed. Yet another reason is to be found. In cae of suspended animation people have fr quently been buried alive, and, after the grave has been filled np, have come ont of their tranre and died a most horrible death by suffocation. The terrible discoyeries made in many cemeteries when recently interred bodies have been exhumed lor any reason, show bow frequently persons are Ikariedalire. All this would be obviated in case of cremation. If the person supposed to t dead were really ia a trasoe, then

m t wtnnni f 1 oO

"

death by cremation would be instantaneous and painless. , Friends would thus b spared the terrible thoughts of tbe living burial which might be undergone by a friend or relatlvs wnom tbey en prosed dead. Many more arguments might be added to support those persons who favor cremation and some could be adduced to oppose them. In tbe near future tbe subject will receive more attention than it does at present, The growing and rapidly spreading population of the world will ere long render . some measures of this nature neccessary, and, when cremation comes to be fairly discussed, and its benefits to be fairly placed before tbe people, they may realize the good to be derived from its general introduction and become reconciled to it.

IIow Men Live at Great llefarnta. There has been an interesting correspondence in tbe London Times as to the degree of comfort with which men can live at great heights. Mr. Webber, writing from tbe Grindelwald in Switzerland to tbe Times, states that in Thibet he has lived for months together at a height of more than 15,000 feet above tbe level of the sea, and tbat the result was as follows: His pulse, at normal heights only 63 per minute, seldom fell below 100 per minute during the whole time be was at that level. Ills respirations were often twice as numerous in the minute as they are at ordinary levels. A rnn of 100 yards would quicken both pu'se and mpiration more than a run of -1,000 yards at the eea level, and the higher the level, the greater the difficulty of walkfng or running fast. He cro8e4 tbe shonlder of the Gnrla Mandha'.a ut a helzht of some 20,000 feet, and found the prettest difficulty in getting his brvatri quickly enough, bad frequent and violent beadche s, and found thst his native guiles and companions suffered much more than he did. Clearly, tbe physical constitution of man has not been naturally selected so as to admit of great variations in the altitude of his dwelling-place. fnce to Face WUh Disease. How ofton It happens tbat although we have witnessed the ravages of disease In the caeof othejg, we disregard his warning signals In our own. It is only when we find hiiu face to face with us tbat we really perceive how grim he Is. Then, perchance, when It Is too late, medicinal aid is sought. His avant cornier, his .forerunner, Is physical weakness.
