Newspaper Page TextAbout Wool. The San Franciaco Examl.isr has been interviewing dealers in woo! and woolens to ascertain what effect the new tariff law will haro on their business. Harry E. Wise of Christy, Wise & Co. says: "The effects of the bill have been eicel lent and they will be better. H has al ready been demonstrated that the cry that free wool would ruin things is merely a crude political lid. In the past sixty days wool in the grease on free stock has ad -vanced fronill to 3 cent a pound, depend ing particularly on the staple. This ad vance applies to the territory wools of Ore gon, Idaho, Nevada, Montana and Utah The increased demand at better prices is directly attributable to two reasons: First; he great manufacturers feel sure that woo ae long ago reached bo'.tom and that it is bound to advance; second, the settlement of the tariff puts business on a definite basis- Foreign wools cannot ruin us, for the re.ison that even tho advanced price on territory wools is lower than foreign good8 can ever compete with. Then another point to be remembered is that there is now an increased demand for foreign wools, a demand so brisk that it has already sent up the price abroad. Eastern manufact urers engaged upon the more popular fabric into which foreign wools are woolen are be hini in their orders and many are running over time to compete the order. So, yon see, the foreign wools have not hurt us and they will not. In fact, in spite of an in creased price of foreign wools, the ad vances on territory wools exceed them I think that the hindwritins on the wall is plain. As ihe bill develops in its opera tion its full advantages will be enjoyed more and more on this ccaat and through out ihe country: "By next year there may be a slight drop in the price, incident to the return of Um market to its normal condition, but the olumo ot business is certain to be g' ater from this time on than it has ever been, and hough the earnings may be a smaller percentage of the whole, yet the gross wi'l be greater than in the past. Our Bos on house advised us that there is the strongest kind of a feeling in the mar ket, and that the firms that have lately made enormous purchases are the most suc cessful in the United States. Gna house lately bought 1.500,000 pounds of Mon tana wool and 500,000 pounds of Eastern Oregon o-t a largely increased scoured btsis, following heavy Ans'raUan par chases "The price of clothing, however, will not go higher, because great competition will put it down. In fact, there is only a few pounds of wool even in a fine, heavy suit of clothes. On a $50 suit the wool . costs about 14. The protective tariff, how ever, redounded to the benefit of manufac turers, and enabled them to keep up prices. I believe that untaxed wool will establish the industries dependent upon it on a stable and nourishing basis ins ire to consumers bettcrjand cheaper clothing, and create an increasing demand for American wool. The good effects of the bill are far-reaching already, aad we have only begun to rea is, them." J. O. Hoffman o( the firm of Hoffman, Alexander Y Co., manufacturers and im porters of clothing and proprietors of the Oregon Woolen Mills in Salem, bo has been making a thorough study of the tariff on wool zrft the effect of it removal says of the Wilton bill: "Congress has at last done the country some good by admitting wool free good that will be felt not only by the manufac turer but by the consumer, inasmuch as wool is now about as cheap as cotton, and instead of potting shoddy material in clothirc the best Imported wool will be mixed with American wool, and the re sult wiil be a much better class of goods for the same price now paid for an inferior article. This will naturally create com pnition and will have the effect of estab lishing new houses all O'er the United States." How Much Truth. A correspondent of the Democrat waLtso know how much truth there i In the tate ment made by McKin'ey in a speech in the late canvas in Maine concerning the new tar'fT iaw, '.ha', "There is some protection in it tut mostly for the south." There is no truth in the statemant whatever, and It wou'd be very discreditable to McKinley's iatcliigsjaca 'o say that be did not know his statement was false when he made it. There are ten articles pioduced in tbe north on the dutiable Hast where there Is one produced In the south placed on that lit, McKinley makes cu.nplaint that in the new law even inrrac i placed on the dutiable list, but ne seems to forget that he, himself, la his notorious bill, put a duty on that article mote than twice a high a the duty in the new bill.

Donn Piatt used to say that on the farms of Ohio it costs a dollar to raise a bushel of wheat, but that the republican tariff system of discrimination against farm products would bring the telling price down to fifty certs a bushel. The prediction has been justified. Furtbcr than that the farmers have discovered that it costs more to raite wheat than It will bring in the market and that it can be sold only at a loss. They have gone to feeding it to stock, while saving their corn and oats to sell The extent to which wheat is being fed in Ohio ii surprising when the facts are known. A Van Wert dealer says that many farmers of that section are feeding heat and selling oats. A Jamestown dealer reports that farmers in that sec tion ' secure the best results in feeding to hogs by crushing the berry of the wheat and casting it over a good grade of clover hay previously cut and dampened for the Dumose." A Columbus shipping firm makes this statement: The wheat we are shipping to New England is nearly all used for feeding purposes, and we have forwarded over 250 carloads so far this month, in our twenty year's experience in the grain business in Ohio this is the first time we have ever shipped wheat to New England for feeding. Farmers who have given the matter careful study claim that bushel of wheat will go as far as and a half bushels of corn. Reports to the same effect come from all sections of the country. Wheat has been degraded until, for the time being at least, it is not marketable. No part of the responsibility for this can be traced to the new tariff or to the long period of dcubt as to what the new tariff would be. Wheat is not effected by tariff except indirectly. I's price is regu'ated at Liverpool and for thirty years the farmers of America have been selling wheat at free trade pri.es -ml buying all they consumed at the enor mously enhanced prices of a republican robber tariff. They have suffered the full results of the two iniquities. Foreign countries, whose products have been unfairly and iiupo i U.aHy discrimi nated against by cur government, have e taliated bv descriminating against our wheat, a large part of which must find sale abroad if sold at all. England turned the plains of Idaho into wheat fields, Rus sia plowed np and sowed the valleys of the Baltic, and as a result the farmers of America, must feed their wheat to the I hogs, sell it at a loss, or let it rot in the granaries. But a better condition is com ing. The new tariff is fair to all inter ests. Wheat For Stock. Tbs Bureau of Animal Industry, a b-anch of the United States Department of Agri culture, has been investigating the valoe of heat as a food for animals. Wheat formerly sold at too sad three time as mu:h per bushel as corn, tut the latter Is now on tap and has been fcr ?omc lime, snd it aouldb:a goxJ deal more H grain wercldbythepoundhere.r.i. some coui.tries,there being four mocepounia of wheat than corn to the bushel . Tha result of these Investigations ahows that it is mote profi-able ui feed wheat, and particularly the porer qjlr.its, to stock than U i :o sell it- "We may -afely con clude, says Dr Salmon.chief o the bur. a-:. 'that the screenings and ImpeHeit mheat hou! J be fe-i and only the best wteat pat upon the msikel." The chemical analyses made by the bu rsas shows that wbest contains practically Ihe same amount of protein per 100 pounds as oat, and that both wheat rand oats have 30 per cen: more than corn. Wheat has, however, only about half as much fatty matter as corn and oats. In carbohydrate' wheat ranks above oats, but below corn. The fat in Ihe animal 1 produced from protein as well as from the fatty substance Protein also help to build up tbe 'albumin oid tissues, of which the muscles are the piomincn. part. The carbohydra:e sustain the heat of the, body, and if they are net present in aufficicnt qaantido.thi deficietcy must be supplied from the fa'. Wheat ia particularly adapted for growing animal on account of its abundance or pro - tein, which supplies the material fo- bsjildin-j up the muscles, tendca and other album noid itracter. It is also gooi fattening food. Ia fact, the cscmical investigations show that it I b:tter for both fattening and growing animals than corn, bat Dr Salmon Is not willing to concede so much. "Corn, be says, "comet nearer being an ideai grain far fattening animal in thts coua'.ry than 1 indicated by tbe chemists' Uoe.,, He tninksthat such animals d: not need as much protein as is contained in the German standard, the one 00 which this report ia based. Equal Darts of wheat and corn are recommended for fattening animal. This j mixture would be better than either gr -ini alone. ''For growing animals corn is plain ly not so suitable a wheat or oats.'' Wben wheat and corn are the same price per bushel it i preferable to feed wheat and sell corn, says tbe report, because wheat is 7 per cent heavier 1 er bushel than corn: b cause.weigh'for welght,ii is an equally good grain for fattening animal and a better one for growing animals; and, thirdly, "bcaue there is much less value in fertilizing ele ments removed from the farm in corn than In wheat." When tbe change from com or oats lo wheat is made It shouH !: a gradua. one. The wheat ihoulJ he mixed with some grain o which the animals is acauV.omeJ. These prccauticn are erpee'ally neces sity wben wheat is fed 'o horses, as Ihey are paitlcularly liab'e to colic and other in ternal disturbances. The best f.rm in which !o feed wheat is a co.rte meal. If to fine it becomes pae'y and C'lheras to the teeth and gums and is no: teadity masticated, ' In the tor n of a coarse meal it is relished by ail animals andjls in a condition too be attacked ' y '.be digestive processes whether thoroughly masticated or not. "These recommendations apply lo all anim.s except sheep. Bleltr reults have been obtained from whole than from ground wheat when ted o sheep . AtUvCstiful Indiana farmer and stock ralaersajs: "1 have not sold a bushel of wheat for four years-. I feed it all on ti c farm. I rotsle my stock, fattening cattle in the S7iing, when the pasture is abun dant; hogs in the summer and fall, when they lake on the most lard, snd la e lambs during the winter, when they can always be bought cheap, and they nibble strsw in stead of yn-wlnp on' !. '00 s in my pa ture land. I a wavs fatten my s ock on wheat, and from expeii.-r.ee considsr it from 10 lo 40 per cent cheaper than corn. Wheat h worth 80 cents per bushel on ths farm for feeding.'

Senator Manderson and Prof Hill of the Chicago University appear in print not by agreement to urge that the tariff be taken out of politics. They must mean that potectlon should be taken out of politics. Taxation cannot be taken out. since it is the main question of governments. Protection can bo taken out only by separating it from revenue. Protection should be expelled from poli tics. It should never have entered pollilcs But how did It get In and who put it in? It was not put In by free traders and it did not blow in bv chance. It was lobbied In by persons who soujht special f jvors, and was made a party policy by politician who saw the valuj of gcttng the support of men with money to spend. There are two ways of taking protection out of politics One is to make public tax ation for public revenue only. That would expel l.entliely and end the uncertainty . Ihe other way is to separate taxation from protection and let the lat'er be judged once for all by the people. In tvher words.give bounties by direct appropila'ion and collect revenue to meet the epensi. If protection Is necessary to preserve wages and pros perity, let the people sav so and pay out of the public treasury what they think Is necessary; let thorn know what they pay to each iarius'ry. It is dishonest to mix taxation and pro tection. It i Immoral to to: protection re main in politics. Take it out. The uncertainty of tariff tinkering is bad lor business and a lobbied tariff is against public morals. Take it out. Curious Facts.

Ivory i not obtained from the elephant alooe, as tbe majority of people imagine. The great canine tee1 b of tbe hippopotamus furnish an ivory which i harder and whiter han the elepliiint. and leas prone t-turu e low; among tbe Northern na tion ti.e tu-ks of ihe walrus have 'ong bren used us a source of ivory; and tbe 'pnally trt i-t.- i iusk of tbe narwhal, the ear bor-ea of whales and the teeth of the sperm whale aUo furnish good ivory. Tbe tutks of tbe elephant, which are a pair of upper ii.t i ' teeth, are prized nioro highly than those of other animals on account of lbeir size and shape. The African specie of elephants re said lo possess Ibe large and finest tusks, some weighing 160 pounds. However, authorities on the sub ject state that fr.im ten'y to fifty pounds is a good weight Both ibe male and female African elephant are furniahed with largi tusks, while in the Indian spscie, although all thoae of the male attain the grea'est size, they are by no means a large as the African species, European horsemen have to be very care ful in their rambks over Chinese p'air.s This is especially the case in scampering over the Pakhoi p'uin cn a li'tle native pony which ia about an suiefoo cd as a donkey. Tbe cause Is easily accounted for. Tbe natives dig boles fcr lizards, which are dried and exported as a tonic, or in the form of "lizard wine." A sharp look on, therefore, has to be made for these holes even on the path, or elae tho eques trian will come 10 grief, as many do in consequence of the ruts In Rotten Row.
