GOOD TIMES.

A Protect!onUt Ortan Forced to Adalt j They Arc Here. One by one the republican newspapers are admitting that we can have good times under Wilson bill duties. The following is from the Commercial Advertiser, of New York, a republican paper: “Like the little spots of green that appear upon the landscape in early April to hint faintly at the return of spring and the revival of all its forces^, there were to be seen throughout the industrial world here and there as early as February evidences of the re- 1 turn of prosperity. At one point in the west a slight but perceptible advance had been made in wages. The iron and steel business were among the first to recover. Next the country heard of the growth of wages in the j manufacturing' districts in New England, where the increase was from 25 to even 40 per cent. Meantime better prices for agricultural products were obtained. Cotton and wheat began to rise, and with them came a renewal of the activity in speculations. “All these changes have been steady. There has been no sndden leap to be followed by a corresponding fall. Here and there, as in oil and beef, the advance in price has l>een artificial and dishonest,but apart from these spurious indications of firmness and prosperity I the commercial and industrial world | has felt the touch of the vernal influence. Confidence has been restored, which is the great essentiahof business success, and with its return values have grown like the grass after the first ] warm rain. Hoarded cash has come j into the market, and is invested upon j the county’s prospects, and timid opera tors have become emboldened. “For these encouraging phenomena ! there is abundant substantial reason, j In the first place this country is under j any circumstances so rich in its potentialities that it cannot be made to feel poor for ariv great length of time. Under the stress of its own unparalleled buoyancy it must eventually arise j from any condition of depression into which sympathy with its neighbors may plunge it. It was under this condition of sympathy with Europe that we began to feel dismal. Panic overtook us because our customs were'temporarily hard up. Then came the silver and tariff debates to unsettle our values and confuse our commerce and terrify the nervous. Whoever could do so withdrew his money from active uses,and either contracted his business or went out of it altogether. Confidence once shaken, the country settled down to an abnormal belief in its own woe and acted accordingly. It wSs manifest that such a condition could not continue. Nations, like individuals, grow weary of playing at sickness when there is nothing the matter with them that a little courage and exercise will not cure. We have at least realized the truth that we are in excellent health, and our spirits have returned. “A second cause of the general cheer fulness is the outlook for crops and manufactures. The long, cold,1 dreary spring has proved beneficial instead of disastrous. It has not given a perfidious promise to vegetation to open out and advance, and then killed it with frost. Agricultural products have been kept safely back until the danger is past. The consequence is that the harvest prospects are better than ever. With such a future assured consumption of manufactured products is renewed with confidence by the agriculturist; orders increase; wheels are kept moving overtime to fill them, wages go up. Foreign trade increases and the long spell of stagnation all the world over is broken, let ns hope, for another quarter of a century at least.” " IRON ORE EXPORTED. Some Facts for Protectionists to Carefully Consider. The first shipments of American iron ore to Europe were made a few days ago—1,500 tons from the mines at Port Henry, in this state, to the furnaces of the Rhenish and Westphalian iron districts* in Germany. We do not desire to obscure the fact that these export shipments were made under exceptional Conditions, which we shall describe, but they may serve to direct attention to the iron ore industry as ,i ' related to the tariff. “The ehormous development of the basic process in Europe and notably in Germany,” says the Iron Age, “has created a demand for ores high in phosphorous” In the basic Bessemer process phosphorous is needed to furnish the heat required. And so the German ironmakers have been importing a considerable quantity of ore from . Sweden. The ore taken out at the Port Henry mines is of the desired . quality, containing about 1.75 per cent, of phosphorous, with about 61 per cent, of iron. It is quite probable not only that further shipments to Germany will be made, but also that other ores suited for use in the basic openhearth process will ^e exported from the same mines to England. Germany’s imports of iron ore are small in comparison with her domestic output. The imported ore is of exceptional quality and is required for use in association with domestic ores to f produce certain results. The quantity of iron ore imported into this country is also very small when compared with the domestic product, and the imports are made under exceptional conditions. Here are the figures showing the domestic output of iron ore in this country and the imports:

Domestic Output Imports. Tons. s Tout. 1881. 11,591,178 955,517 1892.16,298,883 1,003,787 1893..11,587,829 883,036 1894.11.879,879 218,550 Since 1890 the price of good ore from the mines of the Lake Superior districts has fallen more than 50 per cent., owing chiefly to the discovery and utilization of tne enormous surface deposits in the Mesaba range. There is a demand in this country for a small quantity of foreign ore, not because the manufacturers of iron in the great producing districts of the central west and the south could, either with or without a tariff, procure this saw material from abroad at a ooat

lower than the cost of American ore, but because foreign ore can be need advantageously at a few furnaces on or near the Atlantic coast, and certain' kinds of foreign ore can be mixed ad* vantageously with domestic ores produced at some mines this side of the Alleghenies It was explained last year that the great plants of the Pennsylvania Steel Co., one of which is on the coast near Baltimore, conld not make iron profitably because—the price of the American ore used in the central west being very low—the company could not afford to use the ore from its mines in Cuba after paying the tariff duty on them. Of course, it could not afford to bring ore from the lake region over the Allegheny mountains The recent advance in prices and increase of demand have enabled the company to become active again, and it is now using ore from its mines in Cuba, which are its most accessible sources of supply.

The tariff duty on iron ore is not required for the protection of the ironore mining* industry, nor does it serve the interests of the American iron industry as a whole. Because the chief domestic sources of supply are in the heart of the country—near Lake Superior and in northern Alabama—the duty tends to discourage or prevent the production of iron on the north Atlantic seaboard, where imported ores can be obtained at a reasonable cost and the transportation charges prohibit the use of the ores of the west or south. Even if ore had been on the free list during the last three Or four years, the quantity of pig iron produced on or near thfc north Atlantic coast would have beeb small in comparison with the output of the southern and western furnaces, but the industry on the coast ought not to be handicapped by tariff laws which can be effective not in protecting and benefiting the industry as a whole, but only in serving the interests of one section at the expense of those of another. If foreign ores of a certain kind; are needed in order that some eastern ores with which they should be mixed may give good results, or if furnaces on the coast can use Cuban ores advantageously, the owners of such ore and furnace properties should have the needed foreign raw material free Of duty. The German furnace men who import phosphoric ores from Sweden or Lake Champlain ought not to be required to pay duties on them. Nothing is gained, but something is lost, by such interferences with the natural course and development of an industry.—N. Y. Times. "POLITICAL FLAPDOODLE." Anclept Chestnuts in a Party Platform— Running In Old Ruts. The Pittsburgh Post notes that the republican platform of Ohio abounds in ancient chestnuts in the oldfashiqned rut of the political whangdoodler. In the face of most encouraging business and industrial conditions, increasing wages and a return of general prosperity, it denounces the policy of the Wilson tariff as having “deranged business, crippled our industries, distressed our homes and dealt labor a severe blow.” In reply it is sufficient to say that from the day the McKinley bill became a law until it was wiped from the statute books there was a steady succession of cuts in wages in all parts of the country, industries were prostrated, labor riots were prolific; there were destruction of property, bloodshed and a condition approaching civil war in many parts of the land. There were no advances in wages under the MeKinlej' tariff. Not a solitary one can be cited. There were sweeping reductions everywhere. „ In contrast, as soon as the Wilson tariff became operative business began to revive, languishing or prostrated industries were quickened by new life, and there was a general advance of wages in all parts of the country, especially in the protected industries— the iron and steel and textile manufactures. Reliable statistics show that the wages of over 200,000 workmen in the northern states have been increased since the middle of April. The Ohio republicans were unable to cite a single iberease under the McKinley law. It has bnly reductions of wages to its credit. Such bald-faced lying in the face of every day facts, even by the most rabid partisans, is of rare occurrence. The news of the day in republican papers is the most eflective answer to the Ohio platform. It explodes its fabrications and slanders. The Pittsburgh Gazette, in an article on improving business and manufacturing conditions, says. “Obstacles to prosperity have already been removed; others will disappear in the near future.” And all under the Wilson tariff law.—Gallipolis (Q.) Bulletin.

Goes Baetc to Free Trade. A few years ago a great fuss was made by protectionists over the fact that New South Wales, which under a free trade policy had been the most prosperous Australian colony, had adopted a higher tariff. But the tri* umph of the trade restrictionists, aid* ed though they were by the laboi party, which cared nothing for the tariff, but was willing to vote for pro* tection in return for labor legislation, was short lived. At the recent elections the free traders won by a large majority, and Premier Dibbs was replaced by Premier Reid. The tariff question is now before the assembly, and on June 5 came to a test vote on a motion tp repeal the protective tariff and impose additional taxes oh wines, spirits, beer, tobacco and opium. ExPremier Dibbs moved an amendment that no alterations be made in the tariff before the year 190a The amendment was rejected by a vote of 52 to 33, and Premier Reid’s bill for a revenue tariff was carried by a vote of 53 to 36, or one more than two to one. This significant victory for free trade shows what the people of New South Wales think of protection after having tried it The Reid bill will undonbt* edly become law, and Victoria is ex* pected to soon adopt a similar revene tariff.!'

FARM AND GARDEN. CABBAGE-ROOT MAGGOT. The Beat Method of Fighting Ttdi Iioablnome Otnlrn Pest. Although called the cabbage-root maggot, this insect will also feed on the roots of cauliflower, borecole, Brussels sprouts, radish, collard, broccoli, rutabaga turnip, winter cress and hedge mustard. Many remedies have been recommended for this pest. The only preventive that has proved effectual on a large scale is the tarred paper disc. These discs, which should measure three inches in diameter, are made of tlyu roofing felt, being cut by a special tool, the dotted lines in the diagram showing the position of the edge of the tool. The discs should be placed about the plants at the time of transplanting. By bending the card slightly the slit will open sufficiently to admit the stem of the plant to the center, after which the card should be spread out, and the points formed by th# star-shaped cut should be pressed snugly about the stem. It is essential that the ground be smooth when the cabbage plants are transplanted, and the dises must be pressed elose to the ground, leaving no chance for the flies to crawl under them. As a preventive measure would only cause the flies to abauden the cabbage ' 1

IIOW TO CCT. or cauliflower crops for some othei plant, the Geneva (station recommends that a direct remedy be used in conjunction with it. Carbolic acid in the j form of an emulsion is the most feasi- j ble. ’ The proportions are, one pound i hard soap or one quart soft soap ^dissolved in one gallon boiling water, j one pint crude carbolic acid; the whole should be well churned to form an emulsion, when thirty parts water ' should be added to one of the mixture. It should be applied in a solid stream. When the maggots have worked their way into the roots of the plant a short distance the only remedy is carbon bisulphide. This must be applied carefully below the roots, and not on then), as the liquid will kill all the roots with which it comes in contact. The requisite proportion is one teaspoonful to each plant./—N. Y. World NEW BORDEAUX MIXTURE. Better Than the One Now so Largely Used in This Country. At a meeting of the National Agricultural society of France an improved Bordeaux mixture was suggested with the object of removing certain objections to the one now so largely used in this country. It has the advantage over the old mixture in being less injurious to foliage, less liable to be washed away by rains, and less liable to choke the nozzle of the spraying machine. The new formula is as follows: Quicklyne, 4 pounds 6 ounces; molasses, 4 pounds 6 ounees; sulphate 1 of copper, 4 pounds 6 ounces; water, 22 J gallons. The essential difference be- | tween the new andold formulas is the presence of the molasses, which has a greater influence than w’ould at first be expected. The method of mixing is tc | add the molasses to thirteen gallons oi. | water, then slack the lime and add four and one-half gallons of water to ! form a milk of lime. Pour this slowly into the sweetened water, stirring briskly in order toi mix intimately. Next, in a third (wooden) vessel dissolve the bluestone and pour this into the previous mixture, stirring well. In this blending of materials chemical changes are taking place. When the milk of lime and sweetened solution are intimately mixed together, then saccharate of lime is formed. Next, when to this is added the solution of sulphate of copper, a double decomposition takes plaee; suphate of lime is formed on the one hand and soluble i saccharate of copper on the other. | This saccharate of copper is only , formed in presence of an excess of lime, 1 and its formation is indicated by the j mixture assuming a beautiful greenish 1 tinge. Thus the mixture is rendered I alkaline, and the acid is neutralized l by the lime.

Level Culture for Potatoes. Almost everybody now agrees that level culture produces the largest and best crops of potatoes. But it is impossible to have level culture unless the seed potatoes are planted deep enough for the tubers to form under the soil The constant tendency of the tubers is to rise as they grow. This, if the seed has been planted only one or two inches deep, makes it necessary to draw dirt around the hill, making a mound which sheds the water oh either side. This also cuts the potato roots in the middle of the row. It requires dry and rich ground to make successful deep planting and level culture possible. But soil without stagnant water, near the surface is always necessary for the potato crop. If the subsoil is filled with water through winter and spring it is impossible to grow good potato crops on such land the following season by any method. v Causes of Impure Milk. The principal causes of impure milk are: Impure air in the milking place, bad food, foul water and filth; and as they are all causes readily controlled, they are inexcusable. The farmer who exposes his cows to such conditions has j?o right to complain of low prices and lack of customers. On the contrary, he should be fined for imperiling the public health by attempting to place on the market a tainted article which is liable to spread disease. If farmers would only unite and bind themselves to observe scrupulous Cleanliness in all the branches of milk production they might readily double its consumption. The “cowy” odor and the black sediment are the greatest hindrances to the rapid development of the industry. —-Farmer’s Voice.

CHOICE FARM BUTTER. UnleM Everythin* b Kept Clean It Cannot Be Secured. Good butter must not only look well and be firm, but it must taste well. To secure this good taste is one of the most difficult tasks of butter making. Milk in all its forms is one of the most susceptible substances to taints and odors. It is sweet and wholesome as it comes from the healthy cow, and to make good butter it must be kept so. The cow stables should be clean and well aired, so as to be free from odors of mold and decaying manure. The cow's coat and udder shoold be cleaned before milking, and the milker’s hands and clothing should be in a civilized condition. The tin milk bucket »hould have been scoured, scalded, and, if possible, sunned, before its daily use. The teats should be milked with dry hands, and all possible dust should he kept out of the milk. Some dairymen cover the pail with a tin-banded wire gauze sieve which catches the foam and dust particles as the milk stream is conducted through it. Hurry the milk from the stable to the house or cellar and immediately set it for creaming in the cleanest of pans, which should be treated as carefully as the milk buckets. Cool the milk as soon as possible by seriating, setting in a stream of cold water, t>r even by cool air in a well ventilated place. As soon as the animal heat is removed the vessels may be covered with dean tin covers; wood absorbs taints so readily that it should be used as, little as possible in butter-making. The wooden churns, bowls and ladles which must be used must be most thoroughly soaked with boiling water, and then disinfected with plenty of sunshine and pure air. A little washing or baking soda in the boiling water will Help to keep things sweet in cloudy weather. The can that is to hold the cream will ne ed the most attention, as it is desirable to keep the batch sweet as long its possible in order to have large u tiiform churnings. If the butter cannot be used or sold within two weeks after it is made, it should be well packed, keeping the color in each tub as uniform as possible.—Ohio Farmer.

EXCELLENT TETHER. It Keeps Aclmtli from Getting Kn tangled Atrthe Rope. The illustration shows a conv enient method for tethering a cow, calf of horie sin the held, without the risk of their becoming wound up to the stake or bar. A short piece of gaspipe is slipped down over an iron bar and the rope tied about it. No matter if the rope becomes wound about the bit of gaspipe, it will unwind as soon as the rope is pulled by the animal. If a piece of gaspipe is not obtainable, a substitute can easily be found by taking a round block of wood and boring a hole through it large enough to ad- ' n

mit of its revolving freely on the bar. With such a contrivance and a swivel in the rope, there ought to be very little trouble in tethering out stock, which, it must be confessed, is a matter that ordinarily calls for constant watchfulness to keep the animals from getting wound up or entangled in the rope.—N. Y. Tribune. HINTj5> FOR DAIRYMEN. Good bedding is an important factor in keeping the cows and their quarters clean. In order to make sure of a good supply, it is well to look after and stow away what is needed in good season. To make the most out of dairying, not only must the quality of the product be good but it must be put upon the market in the most attractive form, and it must be done carefully and regularly if the trade built up is to be held. Mast beginners fail to understand the importance of clean feed for the cows. The cows yield milk of a flavor and richness according to their feed, • and when the best milk is expected the feed must be supplied from which it can be made. One advantage of dairying in connection with other farm work is that it aids in securing regularity. To make the best success, the feeding, milking and other work should be done regularly; and this tends greatly to the promotion of a regular system in all that needs to be done. Whether it is best to feed the cow while she is on good pasturage must depend on what feed is worth and what butter or milk is worth. Where bran or oil meal, or corn meal can be secured at low'priee, while the milk and butter can be marketed at a good price, it is often advisable to do so. One of the most important items in making winter dairying profitable is in making the cows comfortable. The stables should be reasonably warm and dry, and these should be provided in good season. The average farmer cannot afford to maintain animal heat by feeding grain, and with the dairy cows this is especially true. While the particular form of the package in which the butter is sent to market must conform largely to the demands of-the market, there is one fact that in ail cases must be the rule, and that is the packages must be neat and attractive; and arranged or made so, the butter will be in good condition when placed in market.—N. Y. Independent.

A SMATTERING OF SCIENCE. Dr. Bliss, tlio agent of the Palestine exploration fund, has discovered a ruined town east of the Dead sea. Dr. Leslie Phillips, a scientist, warns women against wearing their hair short. He says men become bald because they cut their hair. By the discovery cf helium on our globe only two permanent lines arc left in the chromosphere spectrum of th£ sun which do not correspond to lines obtained in terrestrial spectra. Experiments to find whether argon carrbe obtained from vegetable or animal tissue have resulted negatively, the quantity of the new gas obtained in this way not being appreciable. It is believed that the elephant, the rhinoceros, the bear, the hyena, and, other wild animals, were at one time( common in England. The bones of those animals have been found in Kent's cavern, about a mile from Torquay. Accordino to Prof. Barnard, there !s no ground for the supposition that the rings of Saturn are closing in upon the planet, as his observations show that j no changes have tal en place since the first .systematic measures were made.
