Paying the Debt.
The public debt statement for July
bows a decrease for the month of nearly
five millions dollars; a total interest-bearing
debt of little ever one thousand million
dollars ; and, counting the legal tenders
" leas available cash items and cash in the
treasury, a national debt of l,27,42$,.
737.02. Remembering the enormous bur
dens of the war period, the tremendous in
flations of values, the awful weight of in
terest carried through years of iril and
pain, nothing could se forcibly and elo
quently tell the story of our physical
greatness, material resources and marel marel
lens recuperative powers as these simple,
silent figures of debt reduction.
It is well te step and consider if a sound
and healthful policy does net call for a stvs
In the bleed-letting treatment. This gen-
JflyaaJia,viaiiL'lis Share of the war debt
and has a' right te some relief from war
taxation. At the present rate of revenue
. .rcceipte the close of the century would liud
all the debt paid ; and were it net that the
higher ieteiest bearing bends did net ma
ture se seen they could all be wiped out
before that. If the requirements of the
sinking fund additions were complied with
and a small but sure percentage of the total
debt were paid off yearly, the country
would be satislied and our financial sta
bility undisturbed. A national debt of one
thousand million dollars, funded at three
per cent, could be very lightly borne b this
country. Its burden would net be felt.
The thirty millions of interest which it
would require te be paid would be a ilea
bite te our imperial revenues; the princi
pal would all be taken by the national
banks te secure their circulation, and it
would be an eagerly sought lean for the
absolutely safe investment of trust funds
In every respect our financial system
would be in mere healthful condition than
by the present rapid decrease of the debt,
without any decrease of revenues or relief
from taxation.
Democratic statesmen and leaders who
fail te note the significance of these things
fall short of the stature of statesmen, aud
mislead themselves as well as their party.
Make Them Answer!

It will be curious te watch the consta

Wlfcn the sign beards are up en all the

have done their whole duty in every dis

In this complication the governor has
te meet another dilemma. There must be
appointments made both te the supreme
bench and the state treasury, in all proba

Judge Mcrcur's place en the supreme

te confirm the choice of his jarlj's

are at present in accord for Williams and
Hart. This combination readily suggests a
union of the Philadelphia and Pittsburg
elements for Mitchell and (iriinesen ; and
if Magee succeeds In making this combina
tion solidly, he nill lJ a formidable oppon

raspberries and blackberries ery gexl ; ceru

rain fell during July; parties plowing this
morning turned up dry ground ; net enough
hail fell te de any harm.
Henry M. Knvle agreed with Mr. Hlller
except that the pear crop is better in the
ueightiorheod of Marietta, grapes premise
well; het weather Is favorable te them; the
corn sintered aeme ter want of rain ; the eats
crop was rather short ; the grass and clever
leek well.
Calvlu Cooper said both corn and potatoes
sintered for want of ratu, while all areuud
them were copious rains ; tobacco leeks ex
cellent aud growers are beglnniug te cut It
oil ; the Irult crops are pear, except grapes,
which are looking very well.
Daniel Smeych reported the crape crop In
this city almost a tela! failure ; be did net e
pect te have enough te pay for the picking.
Frank R. Dilleudertler corroborated him.
M. D. Kendlg reported the wheat crop very
light, tobacco excellent; fruit light; the

very few apples.
President Landis reported wheat light In

Jehnsen Miller reported wheat only half a

of Sunday Injured It somewhat; tobacco
leeks Urst rate; eats heavy bat hard t:i har

J. A. Herr said the wheat crop was rather

J. Hellman Hersbey said wheat was short;
corn, eats aud tobacco are very hue; tsitatees
excellent and abundant; he planted tbe
Ohie i:ly variety and hardly had a small
potato In his patch. Jn planting he left the
tlrBl cellar sprouts ou the seed aud did net
cut the seed, but planted the potato whole.
Seme ether varieties Irem which be took the
sprouts did uel de near se well. The apples,
pears and peaches don't amount te much In
bis neighborhood.
Casper Hlller said bis way of planting peta
tees was te put the seed Inte the ground tirst
and put the fertlllz r en top of It. In one
row last year he forget te put tbe fertilizer.
but afterwards scattered some of it en top of
me ground, ami in mat row he bad the best
(potatoes in the let ! He compounded hisewn
fertilizer which he believed te be better
adopted te bis soil than that sold by tnanufac

Calvlu Cooer said potateosmay be brought
te perfection fully two weeks earlier, If the
seed potatoes lie. in a light warm room te sprout
and then w hen planting time comes they will
be found te bave strong, green, vigorous
sprouts, riant the seed thus prepired very
carefully aud tbe young plants will very seen
make their appearance above ground.
II. M Kngle urned the planting of early

Knewing that you are Interested lu occi
dental agriculture, I sent you a sbert state
ment of conditieu of crops, made of bar

crop was dead ripe, and seemed te be half
harvested, aud new, one month later, there
are thousands et acres et wheat iu Call
fernla untouched by the sickle. Tbe Call Call
feruia farmer is possessed of an unlimited
amount or patience. If be cannot harvest
his wheat today, be will wait until
next week or next month or two months
hence. He has unlimited faith in the
weather, and it never deceives him. Most of
the grain here js gathered by headers, pro
pelled by tour horses, and is drawn en piles
te await the coming of the steam thresher,
but this process Is tee slew for the immense
ranches or tbe Sacramento and Nan Joaquin
valleys, where the wheat fleldsseetnllil-jilta-bie
in extent Ou these fields tbe traveling
harvester and thresher, driven by twenty
four mules or a twenty live horse traction
engine, cuts and threshes forty acres per day,
the grain being sewed up in sacks, ready for
shipment. A part of the Straw is used for
luel and the remalnder is thrown eir In
bunchOH, where It lies drying in the sun
until tbe same engine again passes ever the
Held with tilteen or twenty plows attached
breaking the ground for another crop. The
remainder et the straw Is new used te fire
the engine for Plowing. Thousands of sacks
of grain are plled up in fields at htoambeat
landings and at railroad stations, awaiting
transportation. The wheat crop of California
is light, ranging from 10 te lh bushels jwr
acre. Heme fields are net worth cutting, but
occasionally 1 nave seeu a held of very tlue
wheat 1 bave been told that the heavy
wheat was grown en fallowed ground. Alter
a crop of wheat has been barvested and tbe
ground softened by tbe winter rains it is
pinned and put In nice conditieu
and allowed te remain until tbe lollewlug

In some sections barley is extensively

parmlise. I have net yet seeu auy timothy
or clever In this stale, Alfalla is grown iu
some places where it can be Irrigated aud
can lie mewed six or seven limes during

Mr. Kby also called atteulien te tbe preht
that may be bad from the cultivation of the

planting of trees te shade the manure piles ,
aud also near houses aud bams as a protec

Henry M. Kngle aud Hph. H. Hoever
further discussed the matter, agreeing with
Mr. Kby lu most respects, though Mr. Kngle
doubted the propriety cf planting trees te
shade the manure pile. A better plan is te
plant gratsjvluea and trail them en an arbor
ever the manure pile. They will nourish
there, while trees will die.

whether this association take held of It or
net. 'lhe ergsnl7ers of tbe Lltitz society,
however, are witling that this society shall
either take bold of the matter In it own

II. M. Kngle and Calvin Cooper took
similar views ; they thought tbe society was
net in condition te bold an agricultural fair ;
but he would have the association give its
hearty support te tbe project of a fair at
Lltitz or elsewhere.
Henry M Kngle made a motion ; that this
society give its cordial support te the ruev e
ment of the people of Lltitz, Man helm and
vicinity, lu their ellerts te organize a fair.
The motion was unanimously agreed te.
Ul'-INJIss Kill MfcT MKKTISll.
Tbe chair announced the following busi
ness for next meeting:
"Could tbe average Lancaster county
farmer adepta mere wasteful mode of keep
ing his manure?' Referred te Calvin
Cooper.
"Alter the experience of the past season,
wbat is tbe best time and manner of seeding,
and best fert)ll?jrs for wheat ?" Relerred te
A. B. Werth.
" De net tbe farmers of this county usually
plant their corn tee thick and cultivate it tee
little ?" Referred te Jehn O, Rush.
" Will net the drifting te the production el
dairy products have a tendency te Impover
ish tbe soil 7" Referred te Casper Hlller.
11 Hew much can tbe Lincaster county far
merallenl te pay for cattle te reed the com leg
winter ? ' Referred te Jehnsen Miller.
laying Cattls and PhiMphatss.
President Limits, in a speech or some
length, made an argument te show that there
was no money te be made In stock raising as
at present conducted He said that farmers
pay tee much for their young cattle, and un
less measures are taken by which tbey may
be bought at lower prices stock raising will
have te be abandoned. He suggested that
farmers, Instead of rushing in and buying
young cattle from shippers at whatever prices
they cheese te ask, should form a union, and
make their purchases en tbe plains, or In far
western markets where young cattle can te
bought for about - cents per pound. Mr.
I-andis also blamed farmers for buying
commercial fertilizers from manufacturers
outside the oeuuty, when just as geed Knet
belter can be bought et local manufacturers,
and the money amounting te hundreds of
thousands et dollars per aunutn would tbus
be kept at home.
11. It. Fulton followed in much tbe same
strain and concluded with some remarks In
favor of county lairs being convenient places
at which farmers could interchange views en
this aud ether important matters.
After further remarks by Kph. N. Hoever
and James Cellins tbe meeting adjourned.
