At this time lust year there were in the country about 60,000 bales of old hops; to-day the most reliable information says that there is not a quarter of that amount in all hands, while many trustworthy persons maintain that there are not over 5,000 bales in the hands of dealers all over the United States —less than half the average monthly consump tion—while brewers, on the whole, have but a small surplus to fall bS per cent, within the last four years, the total hav ing grown from $770,602.50 for the fiscal year ending June 30th, 1870, to $4,0fi1,1»42.. r >7 for the year which closed with last monlli.

The re api>ortionment was made to apply first to the Forlv-third Congress, which began March 4, 1*73." The same act provided that members of the Forty-fifth and of succeeding Congresses should be voted for on the Tuesday following the first Monday of November in e very alternate year, commencing with 18~t>. It is probable that the new apportionment of Representatives t>> l>e made under the census of I*6o will first apply to the Forty-eighth Congress, which will commence its term March 4, 1883. The number of members is not likely to be extended much, if, any, beyond 300. The Eastern and Southern States, it is thought, will lose relatively, while the West will gain. Enough data, however, are not yet at hand to supply a basis for close calculation in this respect. The basis ot repre sentation is changed as the growth of popula tion from time to time requires. In 17*9 it was 30,000. Under the last allotment it was 131,- 425. The basis will probably be raised to some thing like 175,000 under the present eeusus. —While the sanding of sugar and the watering of rum, which used to be ascribed perhaps uncharitably, to pious New England deacons who kept grocery stores, have at length liecome obsolete, and while no complaints are now heard of white oak hams and nutmegs made out of hemlock bark, the bad industry of food adulteration is by no means extinct. In stead of the bald and simple swindlers formerly in vogue, later years have brought with them nes" and adroit and not easily detected pro cesses of fraud in the manipulation of what we eat and drink. The appliances of science are invoked to supply continually new methods of imposture. A system of development of these sinisters practices is seemingly in operation that daily evolves some fresh assault uiwn our stomaches and our pockets. What with oleo margarine, glucose, bogus coffee, condiments and spices, adulterated teas, flour, Ac., the situation is a melancholy one, and the pros pect is far from encouraging.. It may be true that he who is robbed and knows it not is not roblied at all; but it requires a good deal of philanthropy to admit that • • • • "the pleasure is as great In being cheated as to cheat." Our Next Fair. We publish this week for the third and last time the Premium List of our coming county Fair, to be held here next month. That it is to be a great success, is assured from the great interest already manifested in it all over the county. On one day last week, some thirty stalls "were rented for cattle exhibits and the association will have to increase the already large number of stalls on the grounds. The great advantages of Agricultural Fairs are well set forth in the following, from the remarks of W. S. Roland, of York county, read at a meet ing of the Hoard of Agriculture for I*Bo : "Whatever may be said or written for or airainst agricultural fairs, it is a well-demon strated truth that they still out-rival and out number all other kinds of gatherings of people. They have become permanent institutions amongst us anil to be kept up in a useful and healthy condition, they must be made attrac tive and instructive through elevating, ex pansive, and progressive influences. Agricul ture is the chief support of the nation, ami as long as the earth brings forth abundant har vests, and skill and ingenuity is encouraged in the invention and manufacture of machinery applicable to agricultural purposes, will the interest in agricultural fairs lie kept up. These fairs, when properly conducted, are a training school, where tne ambitious of all classes may learn something that will benefit them in their journey through life. These exhibitions bring together, within a narrow scope, much of the skill and industry of the county, and an oppurtunity is afforded the people to get cheap information in the most ap proved methods of production, in the various departments of agriculture ; besides, they tend to stimulate the appetite for agri cultural books and newspapers, and create a desire to employ talent, tune, money, and business energy in the application of mechanics to agriculture. This is evidence in the fact that men of wealth and culture take an inter est in fairs, and follow them up with a view to scientific results, as well as for profit. Fairs have been acknowledged as a medium for introducing agricultural machinery, through which incaus there has been an in creased production, and at a less cost to the pronncer. A late writer on this subject says: Indeed, the poorer the land, and the poorer the farmer, the greater the necessity for econ omizing labor the application of machinery to crop cultivation.' And in addition to these well marked evidences of the progress and ex panding capabilities of agriculture, there is the best of proof now spread over the State that fairs have been the means of improving the breeds of horses, cattle, sheep, swine, and poultry, and in the culture of fruits, flowers, aud vegetables, as well as in the household and other departments, where the objects are to foster, encourugo, aud improve agriculture, horticulture, mechanics, domestic, household, and fine arts, etc. It should be the study of the officers of agri cultural societies to do more than simply try to get tip large gatherings of the people for amusement only. 11 in hoped that there is yet coming a brighter day than any in the past, when more attention and greater facilities will be given the people in their desire for advance ment in agricultural knowledge. I believe that the State Hoard of Agriculture could ef fect good result? by sending out committees to visit county fair*, and have them make full reports of all they see, good and bad. And further, could there not be a concert of action brought about between gome citizens in every country and the Permanent Exhibition Com pany, at Philadelphia, through which means a working organization could be founded, labor ing for State development, in collecting and depositing in the exhibition building samples of the agricultural, horticultural, mineral and industrial resource of the State, accompanied with maps showing locality whenee obtained, and facilities for reaching these places? I think that committees or individuals could be found in every county willing to assume the task of collecting such facts—useful and inter esting—and communicating their labors to their fellow citizens, through the State Hoard of Agriculture or the Permanent Exhibition Company. In Kip'li an undertaking, 1 would suggest as valuable hold the public schools. Diva H. LEE, KoraflCopaHiie Pliyisloian. Office and residence near the Wick House North Main street.

The next method ot treatment for the cure of cancer be learned Irom a noted doctor who lived In Winchester, Indiana. He wis afterward associated with n cancer doctor Irom Scot land, and still later with one from South America. All these doctors used plasters of one kind or another, and their treat incut was more or less severe. But Dr. Bradcn has another and still better method of treatment. Last autumn, when George FVrrard, better known as tlie 'Old Mountaineer Doctor,' visited Youugstown, O, Dr. B. went there also, and not only succeeded in purchasing from the old doctor the secret of his successful treatment, but accompanied him !o Akron, assisting in the meantime to put the old doctor's treatment in to practice.
