ONE ITEM OF NATIONAL
WEALTH.
What goes to make up the lead
ing productions of a country, in
providing for the wants and neces
sities of the human family, can
safely be enumerated as being the
natural wealth of the country.
One of the original sources of
wealth was the possession of do
mestic animals, and in the old
patriarchal days a man's conse
quence was gauged by the number
of animals he pos&jssed. Thus the
bible, describing one of the great
men of Judea, says that he was a
jich man and a man of note among
his people, posse-sing great herd?,
of cattle and large numbers of
beasts ot burden. Although modern
usage now gauges individual
wealth not in kind, but. its repre
sentative, money, nevertheless the
number and value of the domestic
animals a nation possesses is a
prime source of wealth and inde
pendence. From this source must
be derived a people's principal
food supply, as well as most essen
tial aids to trade and transporta
tion. In this respect this great
country, so singularly favored in
all matters, is most particularly
blessed. The knowledge and aj
preciation of this natural source o
wealth is therefore highly essen
tial. The last report of the
national agricultural bureau, just
published, gives interesting and
exhaustive details concerning the
number of our domestic and farm
animals. Of horses the bureau
reports a larger increase, during
the past year than in any other
class of animals, due to greater
interest shown all over the countrv
in horse breeding. Great improve
ments have also been made in the
different breeds, the tendency
being toward larger and heayier
horses for draft purposes to meet
the needs of our ever growing
commerce. The commissioner
says that horse3 are found to be
hardier than any other class of ai -imals,
their great intelligence
guarding them against many of the
clangers and diseases that the
others are subject to. This increase
in horses, estimated to be as much
as 5 per cent., is most important,
they being the most useful servants
of man, able assistants in com
merce, as well as a source of
strength in war. The extension of
cattle-growing has been normal
and has feept pace with the growth
of population. Our supply of
swine has varied but little, while
that of sheep has declined in obe
dience to that well-known economic
aw which forbids production in
excess of needs. This mainte
nance unimpaired of our animal
food supply is of vital importance,
as, together with the abundance of
cereals we command, assures us a
plethora of bread and meat at
home and makes as about the onlv
one of the great nations entirely
independent in this respect.
The constant improvement and
profitable increase of domestic
animals should be made the care
ful study of our husbandmen.
Too much care cannot be devoted
to that subject.

TEMPER SNCE NOTES.
Contributed by the Vv . O. T. C
There are 1051 unions in the
state of Pennsylvania, whose
membership numbers 21,000.
Since the closing of the whole
sale liquor houses in Sioux City,
Iowa, the criminal dockets have
been utterly devoid of interest,
the number of arrests having fallen
off one hundred and thirteen in
one month, and the "revenues" to
magistrates and court officials de
creased over one-half in thirty
davs.
Prof. Winship, of the New Eng
land Journal, says of the Blair
"ducatiortfll bill now before con
gress: "The sentiments of the
superintendents of schools wa
almost solidly in its favor; the
opinion of the educators of the
country is almost a unit in its
favor." We are glad to note Ore
gon's representative is in the fore
in this important matter.
The speech ui Waller T. Mills,
the Phil Sheridan of the prohibi
tion army, on last Tuesday was a
masterpiece, full of loiric, comnion-
ee, and sparkling with rare wit.
A3 a platform speaker, Mr. Mills
has few equals, and as a political
thinker and reasoner. he has both
breadth and depth. lie presented
the claims of the prohibition party
in such a masterly, honest and
forcible way as to gain the admira
tion of even those who are opposed
to the movement. He seems to
have made a thorough study of the
science of politics, and as all in
telligent men and women like t
hoar a fair and honest, presentatior
of any great issue, his large audi
ence was highly entertained aw:
wry appreciative, and wul.;
gladly welcome him again to our
city.
On last Monday evening a few of
our citizens were highly enter
tained at the W. C. T. U. hall b
Dr. A. J. JudkU'S, corresponds g
secretary of the national prohibi
tion, committee of Chicago. The
Dr. is an eminent divine and a
most entertaining platform speak r.
He gave some interesting facts
concerning the organization of the
prohibition paify, ami presented
this movement in a new light to
some of his hearers. It is to be
regretted that our people did not
understand the mental caliber or
high standing of this scholarly
mai, for had they known, his
audience would have been larger.
And just here permit and an
humble observer to say, that citi
izens of as prosperous and intel
lectual a town as Albany aspires to
be, can scarcely afford to ignore
such men as Dr. Judkins, although
he does not argue from a third
party standpoint. Such neg'tct
iavor3 too much of narrow-coi -
- Ttracte(1 one-ideaed smallness to
belong to anv wide
