DEPRESSION IN AGRICULTURE.
In its recent report on the causes
of agricultural depression in Great
Britain, the roj'al commission of four
teen of the most eminent men of that
country, said : "We cannot doubt
. that to some extent, and possibly to
a considerable .extent, the prices of
agricultural produce have been affect
ed by increased production, but it
must also be remembered that d urg
ing the same period the population
of the world has immensely increased,
and an enoimous increase of produc
tion has necessarily been required for
them; and although some witnesses
have urged that the fall in prices is
largely due to over-production, we
have had no evidence, and we great
ly question if such evidence could
be adduced to show that compared
with the increase of population, the
food products of the world are ma
terially greater than they were before
the fall in prices commenced."
This conclusion stands to reason,
says the Spokesman-Review. Tak
ing one year with another, the world
consumes all the food by it pro
duced. There is a better method of
distribution, under which the coun
try having a deficiency draws upon
the country with the surplus, whereas
under cruder means of transportion,
the people of one country went
pinched for food, while food prod
ucts perished in other countries.
Of wheat the commission says
''Speaking broadly, the figures clear
ly suggest that the decline in wheat
during the last twenty 3-ears is not
due to any great growth of produc
tion, in excess of the growth of the
consuming population. The facts
are rather the other w:iy ; the growth
of the acreage under wheat has lagged
behind the growth of population."
Tncse conclusions are supported
by the government figures of produc
tion and population in the United
States. Accoiding to the official
'Statistical Abstract, the United
States in 1880 produced 8 47-50
bushels of wheat per capita. In
1890 the production had fallen to
7 52-62 bushels per capita. Yet the
United States is held up as the chief
wheat-increasing producer of the
world.
One phase of the phenomenal ex
pansion of Japan since the war with
China has been the enormous in
crease in the expenditure of the
government and the great addition to
the national debt. Foreign observ
ers of the financial situation have not
been without apprehension lest the
Japanese should suddenly find them
selves in a period of over-investment,
with a consequent season of depres
sion, if not of actual repudiation.
But the change of the country to the
gold standard, and official reports of
the financial situation that have just
been published, seem to show that
no serious cause for alarm exists as
yet. While the chief drain upon the
national excheqnor is now the army
and navy, which are organized on
the model of those of the nations of
Europe, Japan is spending vast sums
for the improvement of her harbors
and rivers, the extension of her rail
ways and telegraphs and the erection
of new schools and libraries. Besides
it is estimated Formosa will help her
some 120,000,000 during the next
eight years. This will make the
total expenditures of the govern
ment about $250,000,000, a sum
twice as large as the year immedi
ately preceding the war. As the
suivbIus revenue, the Chinese indem-
Vf of $1 50,000,000 and the present
taxes will not quite balance this sum,
it is probable that the tax on "sake,"
the national drink, will be double and
the land tax slightly increased, both
of which levies can be imposed, it is
said, without any real iujustice to
those whom they will affect.
Old People.
Old people who require medicine to
regulate the bowels and kidneys will
find the true remedy in Electric Bitters.
This medicine does not stimulate and
contains no whisky npr other intoxicant,
but acts as a tonic and alternative. It

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all itajjstagee, and
that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a consti
tutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Care is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the foun
dation of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the con
stitution and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprietors have bo much
faith in 'its curative powers, that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any case
that it fa:ls to cure. Send for list of
testimonials. Address :

Something to Depend On.
Mr, James Jones, of the drug firm of
Jones & Son, Cowden, 111., in speaking
of Dr. King's New Discovery, says that
last winter his wife was attacked with
LaGrippe and her case grew so serious
that physicians at Cowden and Pana
could do nothing for her. It seemed to
develop into Hasty Consumption. Hav
ing Dr. King's New Discovery in store,
and selling lots of it, he took a bottle
home, and to the surprise of all she be
gan to get better from the first dose, and
half dozen dollar bottles cured her sound
and well. Dr. King's New Discovery
for Consumption, Coughs and Colds is
guaranteed to do this good work. Try
it. Free trial bottles at Biakeley &
Houghton's Drug Store. (5)
