THE WESTERN FARMER OF AMERICA.
BY AVOTSTI S MOXUREIMKN.
CHAPTER 111.
WHAT BECOMES OF THE $400,000,000
YEARLY TAKES OFT OF THE PoCKKTS
OF AMERICAN FARMERS.
Tho amount of customs revenue
which the United States Government
derived in 1S78 from duties on foreign
goods imported was $130,000,000. To
this amount the agriculturist, being
rather less than half ot the total pop
ulation of tho country, contributed,
nhoui $0o.ono,0(to. This was the
pr p . i 5400,00,000 over-
ci,rjrri rivn farmers on
then --. u i rt udUure, that went
to te ! iurpoHeof national
i. vv-ue; u.d mi far, $G0,000,100 of
the t tl .satisfactorily aceounteu
f r But what of the remaining
34o,ou0,t00 ? Tf ho are the lucky
uen w;i m this mijjhty sum, drai aed
- .r ni't r year out of tho former's
mms, KteH lo eurich ? Strange
h i incredihlr as it may appear, ea re
fill examination and analysis will
show that ail this money has been,
and is being, absolutely wasted,
squandered and spent as iw-le.-ly n
it would ne iu hiring an army of men
to dig holes and till them up again.
It hs neither enriched nor even ben
ettttedni.yb.a1y. While it ha to that
extent impoverished the farmers, i;
has .nl served lo Oil up the pip and
make kkkJ the losses occasioned by
the misappih'ittiou of capital and ta
bor iu the Eastern Mates to the
wrong kikds of production.
Let us trace u here these : 10,000,
0lK go. They form the extra sum
paid annually to the man ufac Hirers
of the Eastern States over and above
what the farmers wounld have had
to pay for the same articles were they
allowed to make the same pcuohamoo
from abroad. If tho Eastern manu
facturers were allowed to purchase
tbir goods as cheaply as the foreign
er, all that money would be saved to
farmers; but as they cannot, farmer
are made to pay the difference.
Nothing whatever is got by anybody
in return for those $340,000)000; and
that sum is merely thrown away and
sacrificed to make up for the want of
skill, or of capital, or of whatever
else it may be, by reason of which
the Eastern manufacturer makes no
mere profit Dy selling an article at
$140 than the Britisher does by sell
ing the same article at $100. If, in
deed the Eastern manufacturer could
produce the article for $1 o, and if
be did get $140 for it he would be
benefited and enriched, and'it might
be some consolation to the farmers
for their loss of $340,000,000 a year
thai went to form large aecainnla-
Wuns of wealth iu the pockets of their
fellow citizens in the Eastern States.
But this consolation does not exist,
'I weahall presetnly show that, in
spite of the enormous sum over
cuarged to the farmers, the profits of
the Eastern manufacturer are preca
rious, fluctuating, and by no means
above the average of other occupa
tions. His charge of $140 fur what
the Britisher can afford to sell for
$100, only leaves him a bare living
profit, because it costs him s 10 more
to produce the article than it floes the
Britisher. Why this should be the
case we cannot here stay to inquire,
but such is the fact. Indeed, how
else could British goods be largely
imported into the States in spite of
th 42i e ,r cnt import duties whic h
' i:h. ' s4o u-eb-ss,y -pent out
Of I4nt w I;; d. led up, form tlu
&$4'iOtio,ouo wi.ieit the farmers efi
Americ:5. afe culled upon to throw
away every year without any benefit
to themselves or to anybody else. It
is sheer waste ; just us it is sheer
waste to pay one man exorbitantly
for doing the same work (no more
and no iw-ttei,) which another man,
luore fcxpen, vvill do cheaply; just
as it would be sheer wa.ste to go on
thrashing with a lbil instead of using
a machine, merely because the man
with the flail was a neighbor, and
the machine-maker was a stranger.
vvj can fancy a shrewd Western
farmer saying, "A man down East
makes an arricle which he can't, af
t.n.i t sell me under $14), while a
man over the water offers me 'the
same article or $100. i want to deal
ith the latter, tut to prevent that,
m-y el&p $40 du;y on the 100, and
flv ilell uj that, as now, in either
c-e, j Miad have to pay $140 for the
nh-ie, I may as well buy of the man
i u Est, l,ecause he is a kind .of
bmther, whereas the man over the
water is only a cousin. All I seo iti
it i, that I am done out of $40."
That the Eastern manufacturers
only make the average profit, and
their men the average wages,of other
occupations, is the necessary result
of internal competition. No trade
can for any length of time maintain
higher rates of profit or of wages
than the average, because people soon
flock from other trades Into that, and
thus they all settle down to about the
same level. There doee, indeed, at
intervals, occur a Hudden spurt of de
mand, causing for a brief period high
prices, high profits, and high wages,
but these bright short Hashes of pros
perity ost the manufacturers and
their men very dear. -Fresh capital
and fresh labor are thereby freely en
ticed into tiie trade, and When the
spurt is over, there is not sufficient
vent for the increased supply. Tho
result is, ruin to many, loss to all.
Such a spurt occurred in 1872-3. in
1874 the reaction came, and there
followed five years of commercial
depression mid suffering. An im
mense body of American workmen
were thrown out of employ, and in
the coarse of those five years (mostly
in 1877 and 1878 (upwards of G00,
000 persons left the East to seek 3
living in the Wtsst. During those
five years a large numbtr of indus
trial establishments closed their doors
and in the irott trade alone 25 j blast
furnaces were blown out, md 60 to
m
-
1 70 rolling mills ceased work. In the
MS years 1873 to 1S7S the average
number of commercial failures in the
United States per year was 7.8.K.,
against an avemgo of 12,880 the pre
vious seven years. In short, those
five years were the worst that Amer
ican coin metre had over cxerieneed.
Yet during all that time the farmers
w ere yearly disbursing (840,000,000
to Mupnort the manufacturers. So far
however from enriching them, this
large sunt was engulfed iu their losses
and was squandered in vain. It J
abundantly clear that, as we have
already said, "tho profits of the
Ivtsteru manufacturer! arepn c jtriottft,
tliH iua'ing and by no moam above
the average of other occupations.
Just now (1880), tho iron manu
facturers are enjoying another teni
imrary spur!, owing (o the wealth
created by the farmers and the con
sequent necessity lor more railways;
and this leads to another que -'t ion el
vast importance to the farmers. At
What cost are these new railways to
la? constructed ? Is tho farmer's pro
duce to be conveyed to the sea-loard
oil cheap rails at a fair rate, or on
dear rails at an exorbitant rate ? Are
tho railway makers to pay BchusjI
vania prices for thevr rails ? If the
former, the cost of the required iron
and steel Will bo nearly twice as
much as if tho latter. Now, as the
rates of freight must be in proportion
OVOry one who may use the railways
about to be constructed will have to
pay high fares and freights forever,
beoaOJO tho legislature interdicts
cheap irou and artificially makes it
dear J Sorely this would be an enor
mous evil, and all the icss excusable,
as it could so easily lm avoided !
At first glance it appears almost
impossible that so vast a sum as
$340,000,000 should be lost in the
mere diverseyof value between what
two different sets of men in two dif
Cerent countries can produco by the
application of the same amount of
capital and labor. And yet, the ex
planation, when sough I for, is bum
f )uud. To take a man away from
what he can do well, and set him to
do what he can only do badly makes
an immense difference in the result
of his labor. A baker wouai earn
poor wages indeed as a t ;i!;,r ; and a
clever carpenter Would starve on his
performances aa a watchmak.-r. A
Western fanner produces excellent
and cheap crops but if ho were to set
up as a woolen manufacturer bo
would soon come to grief (unless in
deed his neighbors Mthacrfbad hand
somely to make g-xid his 1 -.ses and
bolster him up). . The difference le
tween what men produce who are ex
pert and what men produce who are
inexpert constitute a very large per
centage on their production, and a
large percentage on the total produe-
tion of the world means a sum to
which $340; Out), 000 is a triile. A
things ace, to take the world at large,
the human race do not produce per
haps the hundredth pari of what they
might produce if their labor were
properly and intelligently applied.
The greater creator of wealth at the
smallest cost is division of lubor, and
whatevi-r interferes with it is an ob
f motion to human productiveness.

Tlio modern knowledge of trichinosis
and the steps by which that knowltfile
has been gaiuvd, form one of tho most
curious chapters in the annals of science.
Many years age Sir James Paget, Umb
a student, observed that the uiuhiIch of
ft subject which ho wua dissecting, were
thickly Vaset by lino particles like
grains of white sand, ami he applied
himself to ascertain their nature. lie
found that each particle was a little
cell, or bag, covered by a calcareous en
velope, and containing a tiny worm,
curled up inte a spiral twut. The
worm received the name of tricJkina ji
mtis, and will described as a parasite
inhabiting human muscles; Lot not
even ft guess was made as to tho way
in which it gained access to them, or as
to tho symptoms which might indicate
its pfSSSaOe. In com so of time the
Baton histories, tho migration arid IBS
chaugvfl of form of other paiusites hav
ing in the mean while been closely utiid
ied, trichina' were again seen in human
muscles, and the discovery led to mi
nute inquiry into the particulars of the
illnesses from which th erou in whom
they were found had xul.eied. It was
ascertained that he had, either aft the
immediate pre ursor of death or at
some former period, been attacked by a
.malady which ha.l boso cl!cd "fever,"
but which present el unuaual symptoms;
and as the chief varieties of lover had
then recently for the first time been
distinguished from one another, these
unusual symptoms were perceived te
uoa ess significance. Itwashnge ted
that tiny might be connected with the
presence ot the parasites, and eXpcri
menu wetedeviaeti for the purjHse of
trstin; the accuracy of the supposition.
( 'arjiivuroiis animals were fed with
scraps of tho trichina loaded, and were
killed at various jn-riois afterwards for
the purpose of examination. The re
sults at first obtained were verified by
successive repetitions of the proc-ss,
and at length the whole facts of the
case were disclosed. iJriefiy stated,
'h conclusions arrived at were that the
trichina1 in tho eucapsuled condition, as
they were tir.u siren, were doraigut, and
itr the time harmless adults, and that
they might rem on in this state f.r an
indwtiwite eriod. As soon, howeer,

sacrifice, to compass the destruction of
a whole nation of cannibals. I'ho pig
is very frequently the subject of trichi
noiis, being liable to swallow the en
capsuled worms in inuny ways ; and it
bears the period of migration with com
paratively little injury, so that its fie!
often contains the eucapsuled worms in
creat numbers. There appears to be
(only one complete menus of protection
against the diffusion of trichinosis, and
that is furnished by the best incidents
ef proper cookery. The encasuled
parasites cannot survive a certain e.o-
vation of temperature ; and death ren
ders them harmless. . Fresh jiork or
fresh meat ef any kind, however load
ed with them, would be a perfectly saft
article ot food after thorough roasting
or boiling. in the caso of salt meat
however, the security thus obtained is
less complete, because the hardening o
the salted tissue places a ditlicwlty in
the way of the penetration of heat into
its interior.
TO MBSOeKS,
A writer in the Prairie Farmer lias
the following :
If I want the offspring to be females
I breed tho earliest lime possible
after the cows come in heat, and i
males at the latest possible time. With
fowls if I want females I keep a let of
male birds, nnd if otherwise I keep
not less than eight or ten hens to
one male bird. With healthy males
in just good condition, and not over
used, the above results I have inva
riably obtained in breeding horses,
cattle, swine, and poultry fer more
than a dozen years.

Now flint tho greatest part of the

In the eastern part of the county
and from the mills in Albany, llrnwns
vlllo and other mills on the low lands,
at very reasonable rates for plunk
fences. Six Hons of Ulllbat have
been used fur posts, with tho follow
ing results of their duration: fir posts,
. to H years, If made of old fir troes,
no sap; round, yew posts, green, 4 to
years; quarters, well seasoned, 8 to
H years; the hearts of largo ash, sea
soned, 0 to 8 years; tho hearts of old
oak, seasoned, 10 to 15 years ; large,
old cedar, seasoned, !lf to f0 yours.
In every case there should be no
sap left on any posts. Tho blossom
ends should bu sharpened, and the
posts driven down with a maul or
idedgo two feet Into the earth. This
leaves a -olid wall of earth round the
posts, Five quarters of an oak plank
should bo used, put on to tho posts
with ten pennies.
IV eled, Hr polos, for fence caps are

fences are exposed In stock, tho fences
should lie five feet high. In tho sav
ing of land, strength and safety, and
not costing any more than uew rail
f-Mices would, tho plank fences should
be used. It .uty surprise some er
sons to reatl the figures 88 to r,i) years

ality that old peSOfif yclept "tho

cedar posts, well seasoned when sunk
into the earth. Some persons might
appose, that, from the soft texture
of this cedar It would not hold the
ualls very well ; but from ths acid
iu the wood the nails rust and hold
fast. The W'sal of tho cedar driven
down blossom end foremost, has no
capilary a:. sorption of wster. The

off at the surface of tho ground. The
slopes of the Coast and teade Moun
tains nfford vast quantities of super

reasonable rates. Some men have
used round oak ole for fence osts ;

It bus been noticed by travellets that
American parks lack the venerable ap

tbe velvety softness of a lawn at Ox

such turf on her lawn at home. "No

At a Toronto agricultural meeting the
story was told of a farmer who raised a

tell whether it wau a squash or a pump
