Depreciation of Farm Products.
Gen. A. J. Warner, in an able arti
cle on the “Depreciation in the
Value of Farm Products,” published
in the New York Sun, January 12,
I 1894, says:
“ Take first the leading staples,
wheat, cotton, corn, oats and hay.
j The average value of an acre’sprod-
j uct of these crops in 1873 was
$15.65; in 1893 for the same quan
tity of products, $8,15, a fall of
| nearly 48 per cent
“ If we take wheat alone the fall
j has been from $13.16 to $6 per acre,
or over 54 per cent; and if we take
cotton, the fall has been greater
still, or from $28.01 to $10.65, or a
decline in value of an acre’s prod
uct, the quantity being the same as
for 1873 of 62 per cent The aver
age acre’s value of the crops of
1873 was 85 per cent greater than
1893.
* * * “ If the farm products
of this year (1893) could be sold at
the price prevailing in 1873, they
would bring the farmers nearly
$1,500,000,000 more than the price
prevailing this year.
This would
make a big difference in the debt-
paying powers of the farmers.”
Again in “Facts About Silver,”
pages 34 and 35, he continues:
“In 1872 milch cows were worth
$33 each.
In 1893 not over $20
each. The number of cows in 1872
was one to a little less than four of
population. In 1893 the number
was one to a little more than four of
the population, so that relatively to
population tho number of cows had
decreased and their value at the same
time had fallen 40 per cent * * *
At the price of wheat in 1873the value
to the farmers of the crop of 1893
would have been $455,000,000, in
stead of $178,000,000, a difference
of $277,000,000. This would have
gone a long way toward paying off
mortgages. The corn crop of 1893,
at the price of 1873, would have
yielded $660,000,000 instead of
$412,000,000.
“Tho cotton crop of 1893, at the
price of cotton in 1873, would have
been worth to the south $496,000,-
000, instead of $184,000,000, its
actual value in 1893.”
George G. Merrick, of Colorado,
in an able article published in the
June, 1894, number of the “ Ameri
can Journal of Politic,” makes the
following comparison between the
prices in 1873 and 1894:
“Fifty bushels of American wheat
in 1873, paid as much interest in
gold as 117^ pays today.
Fifty
bushels paid as much interest in gold
in 1883 as 105 bushels do now. In
1873, 1000 pounds of cottton would
exchange for $180; in 1883, for $108;
in 1893, for $70.
But this is not
alone a wheat and cotton and sil
ver question; the inquiry if carried
to other matters— land values, the
price of lumber, wool, and other
products— gives like results, show
ing a continuous decline in all else
but gold.”
Five Hundred Thousand Men.
Editorial in “ Onr Dumb Animals.”
Our readers will remember that
in the leading editorial of our last
May number we advocated the em
ployment on great public improve
ments of the large numbers of
laboring men throughout our coun
try who were at the time idle; and
among the improvements we named
were, in connection with the ship
canal now being slowly constructed
from the Mississippi river to Chi
cago, another ship canal from Lake
Michigan to Detroit, and another
from Lake Erie to the Hudson
river.
We aro pleased to find, in our
daily paper of March 6th, that a
bill has been now introduced into
the New York legislature to charter
a company with a capital of $150,-
000,000, to construct a ship canal
capable of taking vessels five hun
dred feet long, sixty feet wide, and
twenty-six feet deep, from Lake
Erie to the Hudson river; and we
prophesy that bofore long another
charter will be asked to construct
the other ship canal wo suggested
from
Lake Michigan to De
troit or thereabouts; and that these
two improvements will give plenty
of work for possibly a hundred
thousand men.
Another ship canal, such as we
suggested across Florida from the
gulf to the St. John’s river, nnd
most useful work in raising and
| strengthening the levees of the
lower Mississippi and other south
ern rivers, would give employment
j to perhaps a hundred thousand
in o r e * and saying nothing of the
I 'training of vast quantities of wet
' lands, and the irrigating of thous-
I ands of square miles of dry lands,
and many much needed improve-
| ments on various sea coast harbors,
| breakwaters, etc., there is a gigan-
j tic work to be done on American
roads to make them half aa good as
1 European, sufficient to employ half
a million of idle men, if that num
ber can be obtained to work on
them.
There is useful and needed work
enough in the United States to
employ all the idle men of this
country who are willing to work,
and there is food enough to
feed them and clothing enough to
clothe them. All that is wanted is
patriotism
and common sense
enough to set them at work.
If this country was plunged into
a war today [which God grant we
neve again may be] there would not
be the slightest difficulty in arming
and maintaining in the field 500,000
men for the purpose of killing
other men belonging to our own or
some other Christian nation.

New York, May 6.— A special to
the YVoild from Monterey, Mexico,
says: Parnell, the man-eating lion,
was killed here in the bull ring
last night by a Mexican bull. The
contest between the bull and the
lion was witnessed by 2000 persons.
It was a thoroughly brutal affair.
Parnell fought a bull here two
weeks ago, getting rather tho worst
o f the battle. Last night, instead
o f meeting
the bull
in its
first mad dash, as it was expected
lie would, be turned aside and
avoided him again and again. The
bull continued on the offensive, but
tbe lion never returned the attack,
except when tbe closeness of the
combat was such that be could not
avoid it. Twice he made vicious
grabs at tbe bovine’s nose, so that
it was streaming with blood, though
the blood was due in part to the
bull dashing bis nose on tbs
ground in attempts to get his horns
low enough to toss bis adversary.
Tbe one. sided combat lasted one
hour.
The lion’s injuries must
baye been internal, as, notwith
standing the terrible tossing be
received, his tough hide did not
seem to have been punctured by
tbe bull’s horns.
Colonel Boon, the owner, has re
ceived a number of offers for Par
nell’s hide, but it is probable that
a local official of Monterey will
stuff and preserve it.
Parnell is tbe well known lion
which killed his keeper at the mid
winter fair in San Francisco, and
which recently caused the death of
his trainor, George llooke, in La
redo.

Valuable interests have been lost and

applicable to those who adopt tbe

a large amount of money on fraud

first work of the grand-jury of
this term will be to unravel the
trouble.
The trouble arises from the
forged county road time checks.
The public statement that $5000
