Tiik Democratic theory that trusts
are in some wav attributable to the
protective tariff has received a severe
blow from an official report just re
ceived by the State Department from
Frank W. Mali in in Austria, who
says that there is a marked tendency
in that country toward formation of
trusts ; that bat makers, paper fac
tories, sugar manufacturers, shoe
manufacturers, niakersof knit gloves,
etc., are combining to reduce ex
penses, and that the great corpora
tion formed at Buda Pesth is acquir
ing possession of the gas plants
through Hungary. These combina
tions are new, having been formed
in the past year, but there are also
numerous older combinations, which
have all the characteristics of Amer
ican trusts. He adds that "It is
worthy t note that Austria-Hungary
has no protective tarifl, except
on a very few articles, such as cigars
and tobacco, for instance, the tariff
in which is a Government monop
oly." The Tabor Commission, created
by the last Congress, which has de
voted a good share of its work to an I
investigation of trusts, has pist pre
sented its report on that interesting
subject. It finds that great combi
nations of capital for manufacturing
purposes undoubtedly reduce the cost
of production, and that competition
between great organizations has a
tendency to prevent excessive profit,
thus giving to ennsumers the benefit j
of thu reduced cost o production, i
While the combinations insonieeasct '

THE VELVET BEAU.
Aa a RenoTatlnaj Crop It Haa Some
Advaalnarra Over the Conpea,
WMcb II Resembles.
A bulletin of the Alabama experi
ment station says: The velvet bean
(Mucin. a ulilis) is a plant which, in
general appearance of leaves and
stems, is nearly similar to the run
ning varieties of cowpeas. The vines
attain great lengths, a growth of
30 feet being usually made and much
greater lengths being sometimes at
tained. The beuns are larger than cow-
THE VELVET BEAN.
peas nnd usually three or four are found
in each pod. The pods nre short and
atout, nea,rly black in color and covered
with a coat of velvety hairs. The velvet
bean belongs to the same family as the
cowpen. It is a legume or leguminoua
plant, and, 'ike the cowpca, the velvet
bean is a renovating plant, having the
power to enrich the land on which it
grows.
In any comparison of velvet beans
with cowpeas as a renovating crop,
there is one point in which velvet
beans are conspicuously superior.
When frost comes the vines and leaveB
settle down together in such a way
that the force of falling rain It broken
and the network of vines is so complete
that the leaves, the most valuable por
tion, cannot be blown or washed away.
With cowpeas the case is somewhat dif
ferent, the bare Btemt standing erect
and affording no means of retaining the
leaves in place. On the other hand, bet
ter implements are required to turn un
der vlnet of the velvet beans than to
plow under cowpea vines. It Is not ad
visable to attempt to grow thit bean in
the north.
WANT AMERICAN FLOUR.
la the Coarse of a Pew Years Siberia
Will Be a Splendid Market for
Oar Product.
William Mitchell Bunker, an Ameri
can traveling in Siberia, writes: "We
never taw large loavea of bread until
we reached Blagovettchensk. The
bakert made them round and square.
Eighteen inchet square or two feet
across are the popular tizet with the
peatanta. Siberian flour is inferior,
very inferior, and to ttrike an average
it it mixed with American flour. After
seeing these loaves and seeing Siberi
ans eat them, the Siberian demand for
American flour is no mystery. The
soldiers are nearly all big fellows, and
1 was so favorably impressed with
their rugged appearance thnt 1 asked
a Russian officer to name their rations.
The soldier gets daily three-quarters
of a pound of meat, three pounds of
bread, porridge and cabbage sou), and
ten or tap. When maneuvering his
portion of meat is Increased to one
pound. So the army also assists in de
creasing the visible supply of Hour and
increasing the demand for the Ameri
can product.
"The Siberinn consumption of flour
astonishes even nfter one has seen the
sacks stacked at Vladivostock. Every
boat and junk leaving that port, and
every craft leaving Nieolaievosk, the
great distributing point at the mouth
of the Amur river, carries to the in
terior flour brought from the Pacific
coast, and every steamer stopping at
village or woodpile leaves sacks of
flour. At Khabarovik we were pur
sled at the floury appearance of steam
ers, barget and boatt and the whitened
clothet of roustabouts and teamsters.
Our journey on the Amur river solved
the problem. The steamers dropped
flour every few hours, and peasants
who came to the riverside brought for
tale loavet of bread, as well ot milk
and eggs. And the demand for flour
mutt keep pace with the growth of the
Siberian population."
Oareleesneae Is Exneaslre.
We are constantly hearing of batchet
of butter brought into the market In
such a condition thnt it haa to tell far
off the regular price to be disposed of
at all. Butter poorly packed, poorly
talted and poorly worked, It no uncom
mon tight. In many cates the butter
would have been good if properly treat
ed. Over it all seems to be written the
word "careletsnest." To thit word
might be added the word "ignorance,"
and the whole truth would be out.
More study and more applications of
the lessons learned are necessary if
butter it to bring the price it thould in

Soda aa a Pertlllaer.
Where the potash supply is limited,
the soda is useful to certain plants
either as a direct plant food or Indirect
ly by virtue of its liberating potash
from the soil, aa demonstrated at the
Rhode Island station. The results st
band have not yet shown definitely
whether or not it is profitable to in
tentionally limit the potash supply
enough to make the soda act, nor can
conclusions be drawn as to the direct
msnurial action of the soda until tht
analysis of the material Is completed.
