vass roof, and their oral sides Irom being
being banged up against one another have
actually become square. Still the expedi
tion has hopes of success.
FABMEE'S AKD THEIB PROFITS.
With rides and dreams and hats like
these, it has been hard to soberly study the
agricultural question or the bearings of a
proposed road improvement by the Legisla
ture on farming in Pennsylvania. But it is
now properly time to sum up the results of
my inquires into these matters in the South
western corner of the State.
I cannot say that I hare yet found that
"deplorable agricultural depression" with
which political economists and political
demagogues have been cramming the news
papers lately. I may find them in some of
the counties which The Dispatch party
will in the future ris:t, but certainly in
"Washington, Fayette and Green the per
centage of successful farmers seems to be
large.
Josesh Harrison is a rich farmer, who
lives on the National turnpike, in Bast
Bethlehem township, Washington county.
His residence is a handsome three-story
brick, with an ornamental observatory on
the roof. The house resembles an East End
mansion in the city.
AGBICULTUBE FATS HIM.
He farms 154 acres; was once a wool
grower but had to abandon sheep on account
ot foot rot and dogs. Yet here is what be
said to me: "Yes, I can make farming pay
in these days, even, and land in this section
is just as valuable as it ever was. I know
of farms selling here recently at 590 per
Rcre, and they never brought more than $100.
lload taxes are higher than they used to be.
and mine are heavier than others, because of
a higher value on my land. My taxes, to
keep up township roads, amount to $35 per
year, beside my gate tax on this national
road.
"Thirty years ago the road tax was only
512. The school tax SO years ago was a
mere traction. My State and county taxes
now amount to $50. Then ihey were only
$25 and $30. But, in spite of taxes, I think
farming pays, because I can get more for
my products now than I could 30 years ago.
What now brings 75 and 80 cents, then it
only brought 50. Corn is now 50 and oats
85. They used to sell at 12 and 15."
Mr. Harrison's house is handsomely fur
nished, and the farm is equipped with all
the latest patents in agricultural imple
ments. A KICH FARMER'S FLAIST.
I look back in mv note book to an inter
view I had with John McDowall about a
month ago. He is another Washington
county farmer, and bis farm, too, is on the
old national turnpike. While be proved
very easily that he had ascertained by fol
lowing up Sheriff's sales in Washington
county for the past few years that values on
Jarm lands had depreciated verv noticeably.
He at the same time took pafns to satisty
me that there were no mortgages on his own
Jnrm. He is accredited in AVashington
with being wealthy, yet he admits that
farming generally does not pay even in
Washington county. He charged it to the
very low prices at which Western produce
is biougbt East.
There can be no doubt that oil develop
ments in Washington county have injured
wool growing. Wherever 'derricks go up,
sheep fences go down.
FEWER SHEEP RAISED NOW.
Several years ago Washington was the
banner county in the United States. Since
1884 there has been a decrease of nearly
1,000,000 head of sheep in Pennsylvania,
and a great bulk of that loss has been in
Washington county The county is large
iu area, 568.9G0 acres I believe. Allegheny
county has only 480,480 acres. Yet, even if
the shep raising were to be given up and
lnnd should depreciate, as it may, in value,
Washington would be one or the most val
uable agricultural territories in the State.
But I have yet to meet the first farmer who
does not admit that better roads would make
land there more valuable.
Ewinp Searight, who runs the old tavern,
on the Kational turnpike, in Fayette county,
also operates a small farm. He declares
it 13 as easy for a farmer to get alone these
days as it used to be. and he cites the
present prices of produce and commodities
as against the prices of the early period.
AS OPTIMISTIC VIEW.
He says land is more valuable than 50
years ago, and of course it is to be expected
that that would make taxes to be paid.' Mr.
Searight says there is no particular increase
of raortirasres on farmers in Fayette county.
Joshua Wonart is another Fayette county
farmer to whom I talked. He tills 60 acres
on the mud road between Uniontown and
2few Salem. "Land is not worth by one
third as much as it used to be iu this local
ity," he said. "Our taxes are too heavy; We
have to spend too much money on patent im
plements; the mills and factories pay more
wages to laborers than we can offer, and
therefore we cannot get men; and the roads
are too bad to get products to market cheap
ly, or materials to the farm."
FAYETTE FARMERb' IDEAS.
And Mr. Wonart's farm confirmed all he
said. His house is a miniature frame, his
barn a mere shanty. Two other small farm
ers along the mud roads of Fayette county
indorsed Wonart's views. Even large,
well-kept farms in the same region are
maintained at a loss, if what I was told is
correct.
The late Captain Adam Jacobs, of steam
boat fame, owned three beautiful farms at
East Riverside, on the Monongahela, river
72 miles above Pittsburg. He left a for
tune to his heirs and they now hare the
firms, too. Morton Itiley Jacobs has the
largest, 300 acres, in Fayette county. We
ferried the river there last week, and an
attache of the place told me the taxes on the
300 acres were $300, and that there was ab
solutely no money in farming, and they
were on the river shore with admirable
shipping facilities for produce.
A BUSINESS THAT PATS BETTER.
Captain Adam Jacobs. Jr., has the other
Fayette county farm. He finds steamboat
ing more profitable, and is popular as the
master of the steamer James G. Blaine.
George Jacobs, who has the third farm on
the Greene county side of the river, says:
"You can buy oats and corn at Chicago
and bring them here cheaper than we can
raise them. It takes an enormous amount
of fertilizer to crow oats to compete with
those from the West, at 22 cents per bushel,-
ana 'U cents at harvest time. With wheat
at 70 and 77 cents, there is no money in it
here. I can buy the Western hay cheaper
on the cars than I can harvest it. We
farmers can just make a living a comfort
able one and that is all."
GREENE COUNTY'S PROSPERITY.
On the other hand, our overland ride
across Greene county found a class of very
thrifty small farmers. But one railroad en
ters Greene county, and that is a short, nar
row gauge. Western products do not bother
the Greene county farmer in the interior, if
they do along the river.
County Kecorder Sutton, at Waynesburg.
assured me that ihere were fewer mortgages
filed in the last three or four years in the
county than during the preceding four
years. He believed that if farming was con
ducted on a conservative, steady plan it
would pay. It is the rapid, extravagant and
speculative features of agriculture that he
believes lead to piling up mortgages.
This expedition is intended to prove no
particular point. It simply inspects the
country roads and makes a realistic report.
It simply poses as a phonographer-grapha-phone
lor the farmers on economic ques
tions, and repeats their voice.
PECULIAR AND PARADOXICAL.
I had thought from the first few interviews
I had above that the farmers along the
national road were more successful than
those on the mud roads because thev had
easier and cheaper accessibility to markets.
But I found the farms on the magnificently
slackwatercd Monongahela, with better
transportation facilities than macademized
roads, failures. Then I found the farmers
remote from railroads all thrifty.
In this contradictory labyrinth of agricnl
tare Tiews I leave the results to the reader
to work out. L. E. Sxopiel.

Constitutional Catarrh.
No single disease has entailed more suffering
or hastened the breaking up ot the constitu
tion than Catarrh. The sense of smell, of
taste, of sight, of hearing, the human voice,
the mind one or more.and sometimes all, yield
to its destructive influence. The poison It dis
tributes throughout the system attacks every
vital force and breaks up the most robust of
constitutions. Ignored, becanse but little un
derstood by most physicians, impotently as
sailed by quacks and charlatans, those suffer
ing from It have little hope to bo relieved of it
this side of the grave. It is time, then, that the
popular treatment of this terrible disease by
remedies within the reach of all passed into
hands at once competent and trustworthy. The
new and hitherto untried method adopted by
Dr. Sanford in the preparation of IhsKadical
Cure has won the hearty approval of thou
sands. Itis instantaneous in affording relief
in all head colds, sneezing, snuffling and ob

most oppressive symntoms, clearing the bead,
sweetening the breath, restoring the senses of
smell, taste and hearing, and neutralizing the
constitutional tendency of the disease toward
the lung, liver and kidneys.
