A  cable  dispatch  from  London,  stating  that  the 
government  of  Victoria,  Australia,  had  Increased  the 
Import  duty  on  Oregon  pine  $6.25  per  1.000  feet  and 
the  duty  on  canned  fruit  to  six  cents  a  pound,  or 
about  15  cents  per  tin,  has  caused  much  excitement 
in  San  Francisco,  as  it  is  regarded  as  the  first  gun 
in  the  foreign  fight  against  the  McKinley  Bill.  The 
McKinley  Bill  entirely  barred  out  Australian  wool 
from  this  country,  and  Victoria's  action  has  been 
taken  in  revenge.  If  the  other  Australian  colonies 
follow  suit,  it  will  be  a  heavy  blow  to  San  Francisco 
merchants,  as  that  Is  the  port  of  entry  for  all  these 
goods.  The  blow  is  particularly  severe  to  fruit 
growers  and  canners,  as  they  have  been  several  years 
in  building  up  a  market  for  California  canned  goods 
in  Australia. 
Some  time  ago  the  Single-Tax  men  elected  a  ma¬

att8v)lle,  Md.,  and  straightway  they  began  experi¬ 
menting  with  their  theory  by  taxing  unimproved  at 
the  same  figure  as  improved  land  and  exempting 
improvements  from  taxation.  As  this  required  an 
Increase  in  the  rate,  the  Board,  by  virtue  of  the 
power  given  by  the  legislature,  increased  the  rates 
from  15  to  25  cents,  whereupon  the  owners  of  the 
unlmr  roved  land  instituted  proceedings  for  a  man¬ 
damus  to  restrain  them  from  doing  so.  Judge  Brooke 
last  Thursday  decided  in  favor  of  the  Single-Taxers 
on  the  ground  that  “as  the  act  gave  the  Board  the 
power  to  control  the  assessment  and  made  them  a  final 
Board  of  Appeal,  the  Court  cannot  direct  which  way 
they  shall  legislate."  The  case  will  goto  the  Court 
of  Appeals,  and  meanwhile  those  who  do  not  like  the 
Henry  George  system  will  try  to  oust  the  Commis¬ 
sioners  at  the  next  election. 
Condensed  Correspondence 
Iowa,  Knowlton,  July  28.— Apples  will  be  very 
scarce.  Strawberries  and  raspberries  were  partial 
failures.  There  is  a  moderate  crop  of  blackberries. 
Oats  are  inferior  both  as  regards  quantity  and  qual¬ 
ity.  Winter  wheat  Is  excellent  in  every  way.  So  is 
rye.  Much  of  both  millet  and  buckwheat  is  sown  and 
the  meadows  are  fair.  Hands  are  scarce,  there  being 
hardly  enough  to  save  the  crops  and  mend  the  cul¬ 
verts,  to  say  nothing  of  keeping  the  roads  in  good  re¬ 
pair.  Wages  are  high.  In  the  West  we  have  much 
to  learn  in  the  way  of  plant  ornamentation.  I  am 
trying  to  set  a  good  example  by  experimenting  as  far 
as  I  am  able  with  shrubs,  trees  and  herbaceous  per¬ 
ennials.  It  costs  a  good  deal,  but  I  might  as  well  be 
the  loser  as  anybody  else.  e.  b.  h. 
New  York,  Elba,  Genesee  County,  July  30.— 
Wheat  is  all  secured  In  fine  shape,  but  will  not  be  as 
heavy  as  was  expected,  on  account  of  being  Injured 
by  rust  and  insects.  Oats  are  looking  extra  good, 
but  the  weather  is  very  dry  now.  We  must  have  rain 
soon  to  make  them  fill  well.  Beans  are  growing  fast, 
with  a  show  for  a  good  crop.  Potatoes  are  looking 
good.  Raspberries  are  drying  up  on  the  bushes;  the 
smaller  they  get  the  larger  the  price.  Apples  have 
Improved  of  late  in  this  and  Orleans  County,  and  a 
fair  crop  may  be  looked  for.  Pears  are  few  and  far 
between,  but  we  shall  have  enough  for  home  use  and 
a  few  to  spare.  Butter  has  improved  a  little  in  price 
and  the  same  with  eggs.  Fine  wool  sheep  are  getting 
scarce;  there  is  no  demand  for  the  dirt  and  grease 
from  them;  grades  are  taking  their  places.  Horses 
are  very  low  and  of  slow  sale.  The  poultry  business 
is  having  quite  a  heavy  boom.  C.  F. 
New  York,  Seneca  County,  July  30.— Wheat 
is  harvested  and  the  weather  was  most  propitious 
for  getting  the  crop  housed.  The  yield  is  not  so 
large  as  was  expected  from  the  amount  of  straw 
produced.  The  moist,  hot  weather  of  early  June 
was  favorable  to  the  production  of  rust  and  the 
berry  is  shrunken  considerably.  Oats  were  never 
more  promising.  They  are  nearly  ready  tor  cutting. 
Barley  is  not  so  good,  though  the  crop  will  be  fair. 
Hay  was  heavy,  though  this  was  not  expected  early 
in  the  season.  Rain  fell  nearly  every  day  in  May 
and  grass  was  much  improved  by  it.  Cherries  were 
a  failure  but  strawberries,  raspberries,  currants  and 
gooseberries  were  fully  up  to  the  average.  Peaches 
promise  a  fair  crop.  The  first  were  picked  here  July 
20.  Plums  and  apricots  are  a  failure.  Apples  promise 
a  very  good  yield  of  handsome  fruit.  There  will  be 
more  red  than  green  fruit.  Pears  will  not  yield 
heavily,  though  young  trees  have  a  fair  burden. 
Grapes  promise  well.  The  black  rot  is  seen  in  some 
places,  but  it  is  believed  that  the  use  of  fungicides 
will  hold  the  disease  in  check  as  it  did  last  year. 
Early  potatoes  look  well  and  are  being  marketed  at 
60  cents.  Butter  is  down  to  15  cents  in  our  village 
markets,  and  eggs  bring  15  cents  per  dozen  so  “a  hen 
is  as  good  as  a  cow.”  Strawberries  brought  from  7  to 
12  cents;  raspberries  from  8  to  12  cents,  and  black¬ 
caps  from  6  to  10  cents.  Huckleberries  are  just  making 
their  appearance.  Green  corn  is  also  a  new-comer  in 
the  market  and  brings  about  $1  25  per  100  ears.  Early 
apples  are  also  in  the  market  at  about  50  cents  per 
bushel.  g.  a.  l.

THE  “BEST”  LIGHT. 
The  Pittsburg-  is  the  best  lamp  we  know 
anything  about.  We  did  not  know  that 
any  kerosene  light  could  be  so  beauti¬ 
fully  soft  and  strong — a  powerful  light 
without  glare 
and  flicker,  easy 
and  delightful  for 
tired  eyes.  Now 
we  are  convinced 
and  heartily  in¬ 
dorse  all  the 
claims  so  far  test¬ 
ed.  The  lamp 
itself  is  a  thing  of 
beauty.  Here  is  a 
picture  of  perhaps 
the  handsomest  of 
the  series.  We 
would  be  glad  to 
send  one  to  every 
home  in  the  great 
Rural  family,  and  we  have  arranged  to 
furnish  our  subscribers  with  any  of  these 
lamps  at  special  rates.  The  brass  lamp 
above  figured,  price,  $4  by  express,  at 
purchaser’s  expense.  Complete,  with  a 
year’s  subscription,  for  $4.25;  with  a  sub¬ 
scription  from  date  of  receipt  to  Decem¬ 
ber  31,  for  $3.50.
