THE  RURAL  NEW-YORKER 
Nov.  26 
AGRICULTURAL  NEWS. 
In  Kansas  they  are  using  the  empty  jails  for  the 
storing  of  surplus  wheat. 
The  great  grain  blockade  is  over,  and  all  the  roads 
are  handling  all  the  freight  they  get. 
Cudahy  and  Wright  made  a  cool  million  out  of  that 
squeeze  In  ribs  at  Chicago  a  couple  of  months  ago. 
A  mystic  band  of  German  Communists,  who  hold 
all  property  In  common,  thrive  on  7,000  acres  of  land 
they  own  at  Zoar,  O. 
It  Is  reported  that  the  Texas  fall  clip  Is  30  pffr  cent 
less  than  last  year’s  and  that  sheep  husbandry  Is  on 
the  wane  In  the  Lone  Star  State. 
In  nearly  all  the  markets  all  grades  of  wool  are 
firm,  or  from  a  quarter  to  a  half  cent  higher  than  a 
week  ago,  with  an  upward  tendency. 
The  Iowa  Improved  Stock  Breeders’  Association 
will  hold  Its  19th  annual  convention  at  the  Russell 
Opera  House,  Humboldt,  December  7,  8  and  9. 
There  has  been  no  appreciable  Increase  In  the 
“  visible  ”  supply  of  Indian  corn  during  the  week  ; 
while  there  was  a  decrease  of  180,000  bushels  In  oats, 
James  Sykes,  an  old  farmer  of  Newport,  Ind.,  sub¬ 
ject  to  epileptic  fits,  was  torn  to  pieces  last  Saturday, 
by  his  hogs,  having  fallen  In  a  lit  while  feeding  the 
brutes. 
The  Mexican  corn  blockade  Is  over,  and  as  the 
time  for  Importing  corn  free  of  duty  has  just  been 
extended  by  President  Diaz  to  February  18,  the  rush 
has  relaxed. 
The  New  York  Horse  Show  offers  In  prizes  about 
135,000,  and  the  sale  of  boxes  alone  realized  over 
$50,000.  Then  much  money  comes  from  the  sale  of 
numerous  “  privileges.” 
The  engagement  Is  announced  at  Youngstown, 
Ohio,  of  Leslie  C.  Bruce,  editor  of  Turf,  Field  and 
Farm,  and  Miss  Julia  Andrews,  daughter  of  C.  H. 
Andrews,  and  sister  of  Mrs.  John  A.  Logan,  Jr. 
Arrangements  for  the  Agricultural  Congress  of 
Great  Britain  are  progressing  rapidly,  and  the  atlalr 
promises  to  be  of  gigantic  proportions.  Delegates 
have  been  appointed  from  every  part  of  the  Island. 
Electric  omnibuses  weighing  7,000  pounds  each  and 
with  pneumatic  rubber  tires,  are  novelties  In  Lon¬ 
don.  England.  On  smooth  pavements  they  are  re¬ 
ported  to  do  well.  Must  the  draft  horse  in  cities  go  ? 
Prices  of  hogs  are  still  exceptlonably  high  as  com¬ 
pared  with  those  of  most  other  farm  products.  Those 
having  hogs  In  marketable  shape,  should  sell  now,  to 
avoid  further  cost  In  feeding  and  a  possible  decline 
In  the  market. 
Vegetarian  dishes  have  lately  been  Introduced  Into 
the  dietary  of  the  English  army,  as  it  Is  found  by  ex¬ 
periment  that  the  carnivorous  Englishman  is  sur¬ 
passed  In  height,  weight  and  strength  by  the  abste¬ 
mious  Scotchman  and  the  potato-fed  Irishman. 
Prosperous  times  are  expected  next  year  among 
all  classes,  Including  of  course  the  largest  of  all,  our 
farmers  ;  because  at  least  $250,000,000  of  foreign 
money  will  be  left  here  by  visitors  to  the  World’s 
Fair,  and  all  are  likely  to  get  a  share  of  the  bonanza. 
As  the  Anti-option  bill  which  passed  the  House  by 
an  overwhelming  majority,  stands  at  the  head  of 
the  Senate  calendar.  It  Is  likely  to  come  to  a  vote 
•arly  In  December.  What  are  Its  promoters  doing  In 
Its  support?  Its  opponents  have  been  very  busy 
creating  public  sentiment  against  It. 
Suits  involving  more  than  $1 ,000,000  brought  against 
the  Philadelphia  and  Reading  Coal  and  Iron  Com¬ 
pany  by  farmers  along  Shamokln  and  Mahanoy 
Creeks,  have  been  amicably  adjusted.  Coal  dirt 
from  the  company’s  mines  washed  down  upon  the 
farm  lands,  hence  the  suits  for  damage. 
The  heavy  snow  storm  of  Wednesday  throughout 
Missouri  and  portions  of  Kansas,  southeastern  Ne¬ 
braska  and  southwestern  Iowa,  will  greatly  benefit 
winter  wheat.  Reports  received  at  various  points 
are  that  the  fall  of  snow  was  as  good  as  a  heavy 
rainfall  and  has  saved  the  winter  wheat. 
Canada  has  annually  sent  to  England  from  50  000 
to  60,000  “store”  cattle  to  be  fattened  there;  no  won¬ 
der  she  Is  disgruntled  at  the  embargo  on  all  these. 
Her  fat  cattle,  like  our  own,  will  be  killed  at  the  port 
of  debarkation  henceforth,  but  the  necessity  for  this 
will  cause  an  average  loss  of  about  $10  per  head. 
The  New  Orleans  strike  collapsed  as  soon  as  Gov¬ 
ernor  Foster  called  out  the  militia— 5,000  In  number— 
and  the  turbulent  strikers  realized  that  others  too 
could  do  mischief  and  blood-letting.  They  accepted 
the  best  terms  they  could  get,  and  lots  of  them  are 
Idle  and  bitterly  condemn  the  leaders,  who  will  be 
rigorously  prosecuted  by  the  authorities.  Half  the 
grain  and  cotton  trade  of  the  port  was  diverted  dur¬ 
ing  the  trouble,  and  the  losses  of  the  city  are  put  at 
from  $5,000,000  to  $0,000,000. 
Ireland  is  feeling  acutely  the  close  competition  of 
other  countries  In  supplying  the  English  markets 
with  meat.  The  average  price  of  Irish  steers  fell 
from  $75  In  1880,  to  $42  In  1891,  and  this  year  there  has 
been  a  further  decline  of  from  15  to  20  per  cent. 
Large  imports  of  live  stock  from  the  United  States, 
Canada,  and  some  of  the  Continental  countries,  as 
well  as  shipments  of  dressed  beef  from  this  country, 
Buenos  Ayres,  and  the  Australian  colonies,  cut  short 
the  English  market  for  Irish  stock.  Canadian  cattle 
owners  are  agitating  the  formation  of  a  syndicate  to 
export  dressed  meat  also. 
The  recent  elections  In  this  country  were  supposed 
to  have  given  a  knock-out  blow  to  the  “fair  trade” 
doctrine  among  English  farmers  and  Tory  econo¬ 
mists;  but  a  significant  feature  of  the  programme  of 
the  Congress  of  Conservatives,  known  as  the  National 
Union,  will  be  a  resolution  affirming  the  principle  of 
■“fair  trade.”  As  “fairtrade”  Is  equivalent  to  our 
reciprocity  doctrine,  we  can’t  speak  against  it,  but 
Its  adoption  across  the  Atlantic  would  be  disastrous 
to  the  exportation  of  our  agricultural  products 
unless  we  admitted  British  manufactures  free  of 
duty  or  under  a  much  reduced  tariff. 
The  International  Packing  and  Provision  Company 
and  the  Chicago  Packing  and  Provision  Company  are 
about  to  consolidate,  with  Henry  Bottsford,  of  the 
Chicago  company,  as  president.  The  united  com¬ 
panies  will  have  a  working  capital  of  over  $4,000,000 
besides  the  plants,  etc.,  belonging  to  the  present 
concerns.  It  Is  thought  they  will,  combined,  be  more 
powerful  than  even  the  Big  Four.  Will  farmers  be 
gainers?  Hardly,  as  the  rivals  are  pretty  sure  to 
come  to  an  agreement  so  as  to  avoid  competition. 
It’s  only  when  thieves  quarrel  that  honest  men  are 
likely  to  get  their  rights.  The  Hammond  Company, 
with  a  capitalization  of  $1,240,000,  is  likely  to  join  the 
new  concern. 
Now  that  the  Northwestern  elevators  no  longer 
give  information  as  to  the  wheat  stocks  on  hand,  why 
don’t  the  prices  of  wheat  go  up  Instead  of  going 
down  ?  Mr.  H.  Cairn-Jackson,  the  great  English 
,  statistical  authority,  thinks  the  decline  due  In  part  to 
the  uncertainty  as  to  the  available  supply.  “  Half- 
truth  and  not  truth,”  Is  to  be  feared  according  to 
him.  Beerboom,  of  London,  says  the  overwhelmingly 
large  receipts  of  wheat  at  that  point  have  contributed 
to  cause  a  further  reduction  of  from  \%  to  2  cents 
per  bushel.  With  26,500,000  more  bushels  of  wheat 
available  for  delivery  on  contracts  in  the  United 
States  and  Canada,  east  cf  the  Rocky  Mountains, 
than  were  held  at  the  end  of  the  first  week  In  Novem¬ 
ber,  1891,  and  farmers  continuing  to  sell  freely;  with 
Russia  to  be  probably  a  larger  exporter  than  In  1891- 
92,  the  logical  Inference  is  that  the  price  Is  not  likely 
to  advance  now  with  rapidity. 
CROP  AND  MARKET  NOTES. 
Cabbages  are  held  firmly. 
Delaware  and  Niagara  grapes  are  scarce. 
Cranberries  are  fine,  and  the  demand  is  good. 
Squashes  are  worth  from  $1  to  $1.59  per  barrel. 
Grape  fruit  Is  wanted  at  $2.50  to  $3.50  per  box.  The 
supply  Is  small. 
Cheese  prices  are  firmly  sustained,  and  the  market 
Is  In  good  condition. 
Notice  the  range  of  prices  In  green  peas  and  string 
beans  from  the  South. 
Game  of  all  kinds  Is  quiet,  and  prices  are  not  en¬ 
couraging  to  shippers. 
Cauliflowers  continue  low  in  price  and  the  supply 
seems'ample  for  all  demands. 
Receipts  of  potatoes  for  the  last  week  were  about 
half  those  for  the  same  time  last  year. 
In  New  York.  Elgin  creamery  is  scarce,  and  prices 
are  firmly  sustained  with  an  upward  tendency. 
Eggs  have  advanced,  and  the  demand  for  strictly 
first-class,  both  of  fresh  and  held  stock,  Is  good. 
Evaporated  fruits  extremely  quiet,  with  compara¬ 
tively  little  doing,  and  no  material  change  in  prices. 
From  the  attitude  of  buyers,  much  higher  butter 
prices*  seem  Improbable,  except  for  very  choice 
brands. 
Prime  apples  are  In  good  demand,  good  Greenings, 
especially  being  wanted.  There  Is  much  inferior 
stock  In  market. 
Large  quantities  of  foreign  potatoes  are  coming 
Into  market,  and  little  advance  need  be  looked  for  In 
prices  of  native  stock. 
Oranges  are  coming  on  In  large  quantities,  but  the 
bulk  of  the  receipts  are  green  and  poor.  There  Is  a  j 
good  demand  for  bright,  ripe  stock. 
Celery  ranges  In  price  from  10  cents  each  to  $1.60 
per  dozen  bunches.  There  must  be  an  enormous 
profit  on  the  one  hand,  or  a  loss  on  the  other. 
At  Elgin,  on  Monday,  all  sales  of  butter  made  on 
the  Board  of  Trade  were  at  31  cents,  several  lots 
being  withdrawn  because  more  was  not  bid.  The  de¬ 
mand  was  firm  for  all  offerings. 
Receipts  and  shipments  of  butter  at  Chicago  are 
both  much  above  those  for  the  corresponding  time 
last  year.  Receipts  of  cheese  are  below,  and  ship¬ 
ments  above,  for  the  same  time. 
Before  this  Issue  reaches  our  readers  the  Thanks¬ 
giving  poultry  market  will  be  past.  Prices  have 
advanced  on  all  desirable  stock  in  anticipation 
of  the  increased  demand.  Much  depends  upon  the 
weather  for  the  next  few  days,  if  It  continues  as 
unfavorable  as  at  present,  there  will  be  some  slaugh¬ 
tering  of  prices.  One  fact  Is  certain:  choice  stock, 
in  good  condition,  will  sell  quickly  at  high  prices.  It 
always  does.  It  Is  the  common  and  lnfeilor  stuff 
that  Is  sacrificed.  Cold  storage  saves  large  quanti¬ 
ties  whenever  there  Is  a  glut.  When  the  price  gets 
low  enough  to  warrant  It,  buyers  put  away  the  stock 
for  times  of  scarcity.  This  helps  relieve  the  market 
and  saves  shippers  much  loss,  many  times.  The 
greatest  demand  at  Thanksgiving  Is  always  for  fine 
turkeys.

Lay  of  tlie  Thankful  lien*. 
From  Farm-Poultby,  November,  1822. 
When  for  no  man  an  egg  we  lay. 
How  thankful  we  should  be, 
If  three  good  meals  we  get  each  day. 
How  thankful  we  should  be, 
That  on  the  day  when  all  give  thanks, 
We’re  left  to  “dust  ”  on  sunny  banks, 
While  the  turkey’s  neck  our  master  yanks, 
How  thankful  we  should  be. 
When  we  don't  lay  at  this  time  of  year. 
How  thankful  we  should  be, 
If  our  mistress  says  to  her  “It’s  clear,” 
How  thankful  we  should  be. 
“  That  she  believes  to  make  hens  pay 
In  their  morning  mash  most  every  day 
She  will  put  a  powder  to  make  them  lay,” 
How  thankful  we  should  be. 
That  she  knows  the  best,  and  reason  why, 
How  thankful  we  should  be. 
And  on  her  judgment  we  rely,— 
How  thankful  we  should  be, 
For,  “  nothing  on  earth  will  Make  Hens  Lay 
Like  Sheridan’s  Powder”— by  the  way,— 
If  with  us  hens  it’s  come  to  stay. 
How  thankful  we  should  be. 
So  here’s  long  life  to  Sheridan’s  Powder  ; 
How  thankful  we  should  he  ; 
If  we  could  cackle  it  even  louder 
How  thankful  we  should  be. 
That  with  a  large  one  dollar  can 
We  pleased  the  most  exacting  man. 
As  his  egg-basket  overran 
How  thankful  we  should  be.
