Farm Earnings Billion More.
Upwa* 1 of #1,000,000,000 more than
Ih*i year will be the American fann
ers' en nings in ItfOT. Farm produc
tions this year will be about ten per
cent, less in quantity than iu
which was the bumper season, hnt the
crops of ISKIi will fully equal the aver
age yields for five years prior to last
season. The preliminary review of the
crops of the year, to l>e published this
wee l * by the American Agriculturist,
also emphasizes that, because of de
creased quantity aud increased price,
the leading staples this year will net
over ssoo,ooo,in>o more to the farmers
than last year, while their total gains
may he almost twice as great. As the
vast industrial prosperity of the last
fifteen years has been based upon the
agricultural review which characteriz
ed 18;)3-!»?, the American' Agriculturist
predicts an even better era of good
times now than in the recent past be
cause of the marvelous gains in agri
culture. It says: The farmer was nev
er in so healthy a position as he is to
day—financially, socially, politically,
mentally, spiritually. The increase in
the value of his real estate has been
prodigious. He owes less money than
ever before. He has greater assets than
ever. Again the farmers wants are
greater. He is in the market for more
and better stock, farm implements,
household goods and other merchand
ise. He recoguizes the extra profit that
accures from the use of better equip
ment and better methods iu his busi
ness and in his home. The wheat crop
this year will approxiamte t!25,000,000
bushels, 1.10,000,000 less than last year.
Com promises to be within five per
cent, as much as last year but two or
three exceptions the biggest yield in
history.
Philosophy of Hatred.
Said oue man to another as a third
man passed tlieui and walked on down
the street:'' There goes a man I hate.''
Aud an expression of hatred in his
mind passed over his face, showing
that he was all stirred up inside.
"That's too bad," said his compan
ion.
The man who hated a man turued iu
surprise to his friend aud exclaimed :
" Why is it too bad?"
"I meau it's too bad for you I don't
know the man you hate. But no mat
ter who the provaoation is, I know
that- the mau who hates another man
suffers more from that hatred than the
man he hates. That's why I said it is
too bad. I learned this through an ex
perience of my own. "
And then he told a story of a man
who hated him. It appears that many
years ago a man had perjured himself
on the witness stand in court in test
ifying against him. And ever since
the time the perjurer had hated the
man he had attempted to a injure by
perjured testimony.
"I didn't hate the man at all," he
said. "But I kept hearing from time
to time of remarks he made about me,
and of how he hated me. Except when
something occurred my atten
tion to it I wasn't conscious of the
fact that I was being hated. But the
mau who did the hating was conscious
of it. He was carrying it around with
him all the time, aud [every time he
saw or even heard of me his hatred
began to boil—and all to his discom
fort : not at all to mine. Then I dis
covered the philosophy that now makes
me very comfortable. I simply haven't
time or inclination to hate anybody. I
didn't want to punish myself. Iu oth
er words, I'm too selfish to hate any- '
body or anything."
Of course it sounds sweet wnen you ;
listen to the praise of your friends,
but it may do you more good to find •
out what your enemies say about you.
Possibly some of it is the truth.

' An Attack on Beans.
One of these wise doctors, oue who
belongs to the profession that we are
apt to despise in health and admire in
sickness, comes to the trout, with the
distressing statement that there is
poison in beans, that in an oil which
is a component part of the succulent
vegetable there lurks a poison which
irritates some stomachs and is very
had for many. This is astonishing
news. It is scarcely credible audit
looks to us more like a covert attack
on Boston and its culture than an ef
fort to regulate the diet of the peo
j pie.
Beans have been eaten as a staple of
diet for unknown ages. Herodotus,
who introduced us to asparagus, also
tells of the beau and its wide use as
food. Il grows wherever anything will
take root and is not only nutritions
but in every way a most J;onvenient
form of food. To hold after all these
centuries that beans contain poison is
I either saying a good deal for the hu
man race which lias survived so much
! of it, or else a very little against a
poison that must be well nigh innocu
ous. In a former age beaus were the
staple diet of the New England under
graduates. They were supposed to de
velop the intellect and make for gener
jal culture. To this day Boston eats
baked beans on Sunday much more
regularly than it goes to church, or
' certainly much more unanimously. If
there be poison in beans it may ac-
I count for some of the mystical philo
sophy of the modern Athens, but we
are disinclined to this belief.
Our voice is still for beans. They
can be eaten in many ways aud wel
comed at the breakfast table,at lunch,
i at dinner and eke at the midnight re
past. An attack upon beans is an at
tack upon our social system which we
cannot tolerate. David Harum was
wont to say that a moderate amount
of fleas was good for a dog because it
! kept him from brooding over the fact
that he was a dog. In the same way a
moderate amount of poison in beans—
; if any exists—may be good for man,
' since he is kept from brooding and by
the same token is inspired to loftire
] ambitions. Away with this gastron
| omic malefactor from the earth. We
must eat beans and we must die, but
! we see no connection between the two
facts. Pretty soon this fellow will be
telling us that the gods wear wooden
shoes. Is there no institution, ancient
or modern, physical, intellectual or
spiritual, that is safe from the attacks
of iconoclasts? Let the voice of Boston
now be heard throughout the land.
| Joseph Woat, of near Pottsville, on
Monday morning ran upstairs to his
! room to get a handkerchief before go
ing to work. He carried an ax in his
: hand and when he got to his room was
surprised to find two men rifling his
trunk. They fled and he pursued them
aud gave one a blow with the ax,
splitting open his skull so that he can
not recover. The other escaped.

plentifully provided with money.
About tpn o'clock Tuesday morn
ing a man answering the above i|p
sorlptlot entered the(Hohp Warehouse
and approaching one of the rale*l«diea
asked to beahownsouie haudkerchief*
"A five-cent hainlkprchipf", hp ex
plained,"l always throw thi'iu away."
It was observed that the man held
hi* hand over hi* lower lip as he en
tered the store. He had met with a
■light injury, he explained, and said
that he needed a handkerchief. Re
moving his hand he displayed a swoll
en lower lip, which looked a* if il
might have been bleeding
"I am not in the habit of talking
about such things." he said,"but that
you may understand how I sustained
this injury it seems necessary for me
to explain. lam a member of the State
Constabulary and have just made an
important arrest on—l Itelieve yon
call if ' Welsh hill ' "
He then proceeded to tell all about
it. A man named Blake living in Col
umbia couuty had received a charact
eristic Black Haud letter. The State
constabulaiy got busy and finally locat
ed the sender along with two other
notorious members of the Black Hand
gang on Welsh lull, this oity. Tues
day morning himself and two other
members of the constabulary, mount
ed on horses, rode down to Danville
to make the arrests.
Bv this time the narrative had reach
ed a point of much interest and the
"State constable" had the sympathetic
ear. not only of the saleslady he was
addressing, but of half a dozen others
in the store. Continuing, he said:
"Locating the man who had written
the Black Hand letter I went to the
house. The mau was not there. I ask
ed the woman for something to eat
and much to my surprise she cooked
me a nice piece of sirloin steak and
two fried eggs. 1 was much touched
by her kindness. I had no appetite. I
could not get away from the thought
that I was there to take her husband. "
Whether he attempted to partake of
the meal or not was not made clear
for something ,else happened. The
husband and Black Hand dtspect ap
peared. This was just- as was expect
ed. The officer was ready with his
revolver, but the man of the house see
ing that he was trapped drew a long
knife and made a lunge toward tile
officer.
A sigh of relief went up from the
listeners when it was learned that the
knife had missed its aim and that in
the hand-to-hand conflict that ensued
the officer had sustained no injury
more serious than a bruised lip.
"But we got our men, all three,"
the officer went on.
One ol' the clerks timidly inquireil
where the prisoners were at that mo
ment.
"Oh there're all right" the man re
plied; "we've got them. As soon as
our horses are done eatiug we will
leave town bv the same road over
which we came."
By this time the handkerchief was
selected and paid for. Before leaving
the member of the State constabulary
remarked :
"I am sorry for your police. You
see we can not co-operate with the
local officers in these matters, for wo
have authority to shoot men down in
their tracks, while your policemen
have not.''
The man's dramatic recital created
a thirst for more details and everyone
who heard of the affair began to make
inquiries. The town police, however,
were utterly oblivious of the fact that
anything of the kind had taken place.
On Welsh Hill where such stirring
scenes should have occurred every
thing was serene and no one could be
found who had heard of arrests or who
seen any members of the State con
stabulary, mounted or otherwise.
Entertained at Dinner.
A dinner was given Monday at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Jonas Sassaman

OAIRYMSN
RAISE PRICES
The rtalMnteu of Danville and vie*
Ihltv have dec Ined to advance the
price nf milk ami cream, the "hanfe
togo Into effect on September Ifttli
InTthe follow ing communication one
of the ilalrvmen ha* **t forth the re*
*nn* for the increase I n price
Editor American:
At the requeM nf the dairymen ol
Montour comity, who .ell milk in
Danville, Month Danville, and Hlver
*ide,l a*k *paee in vour excellent pap
er. In *nl>mit to the public a matter
which i* of interest to Hie entire com
munity.
About 10 Month* ago the dairymen
found it nece»*ary, owing to the ad
vance in grain and *carclty of hav, to
advance the price of milk one rent per
quart Several nf the milkmen who
purchased their milk at the 8 cent jier
quart rate were able tn cniitiuue at the
•! emit figure. When spring came the
dairymen thought it fair to their cn«-
timer* to drop again to the old price,
•I cent* per quart, not thinking that
the strangest season known in our
generation wan to alter the entire pro
gram .
During the summer months the cows
are either turned into the fields to nip
the fresh pasture, which yields an
abundance of rich milk, or else fed
daily with some of the several legumes
which nrc usually raised forthepurpose
by the fartueis and dairymen. Owing
to the peculiar season the grass did
not materialize,neither did the clover,
pens, sorghum, etc., amount to any
thing ; consequentlT owners of cow*
have been compelled to substitute the
different mill feeds which have been
steadily advancing in price, not n cent
or two at a time but by leaps of 5
cents per hundred every fews lays and
no one can predict when it will end.
Corn is a failure t iroughout the en
tire country, so wie the hay crop and
the "second crop", which |is usually
harvested about this season, is like
wise a failure. Corn is now bringiug
80 cents per bushel and is forcing oats
to double its value. At this writing
the dairwnan who does not have his
bran and middlings set aside a day or
two in advauce is very likely to hear
the miller say "we have not a pound
of feed in the mill.''
This is the situation at present und
in view of the growiug scarcity of
milk, the dairymen met at Mausdale,
some days since and wero unanimous
in declaring that 1 cent must be added
to the summer price, even though it
be early in the season. It was then de
cided that for the present the price of
new milk be fixed at 7 cents per quart,
piuts being sold at 1 cents. Skim milk
4 cents per quart and cream 18 cents
per quart or 10 cents per pint. These
prices will go into effect on September
loth., and will be strictly adhered to
by all the dairymen. If feed still con
tinues to advauce another meeting
will be called at the beginning of win
ter.
This communication will prepare
the good housewives of Danville for
the change in price and that these
ladies will uot place the blame for the
advance upon the milkman, who. in
fact, is not making the extra cent,hut
is just holding his own through a
peculiarly disappointing season.
