A Notable Iteport J of Philadelphia, improved and intro-
The report of the Republican minority ' duce.l the same plow, called the concave
of the committee on Ways and Means ite,r hiirpeuin. This was the liegin
o i the Wilson bill is so able end r 1 ning of plow improvement that has since
candid a statement of the grounds of revolutionized the agriculture of the
opposite that it t-kouid be read am! ? world.
Rtudied. Tho general introduction bv
ex Sjmaker R?ed is rt masterly proJac
tt.ro. Ho not only eriicFos tho woni;
liess and the inconsistency of tho Wil
is n bill, but defends tho doctrine of
protection with arguments which can -
not be gainsnid by opo!ieiits who li -
t-ai-.id the right to "buy in the cl.capot
Markets" ns an inalienable privilege.
Mr. R"ed bases i.Is chmpionghip up:m
the higher claims of chilization, com
pared with which the iue.st;on of prises
sinks into ;n,iigxjiticaiice. The protec
tive tan!T stando letween tho higher
civilization of the American wage earner
aucHhri iower -ide of the foreign la
borer. Take nway protection, nnd
foreign capital can secure the same
machinery and it then becomes a con -
test between labor. To place tho well
paid, well fed, better clothed and more
intelligent wage earner of America in
competition with the poorly fed and
clothed and Jess intelligent workiegman
abroad is to compel the former to work
for the same wages as the latter, ?nd to
subject a higher and costlier civilization
to overwhelming defeat by the latter.
To preserve the mass of productive labor !
in a country from 6uch degradation is
the highestduty of statesmanship. When
it is considered that under existing cod
- ditions, free competition will.not- elevate
labor in Europe, to prevent it is the
highest duty that a sense of obligation
to mankind can suggest. It is upon
this high vantage groundj that, with
rare cogency, 2Jr. Reed champions
.protection.
Mr. Reed Bpeaka for tho mass of Re
- publicans when he expresses the desire
to defeat the Wilson bill, even if the
Republican organization should net.
receive the advantage it would if it be
came a law. The conditions are too
Berious,the distress tco keen and general,
and danger too great to consider party
advantage a moment when the defeat of
the Wilson bill will turn back the tide
. of danger and digress. The Republicans
u not opposing the Wilson bill as a mat
tor of mere political expediency but be-!
canas the great bulk of its members are
profouodJy convinced that it involves
great disaster to the best interests
..of tho American people.
Farmers Institutes.
After spending forty days and travel

miles in the work throughout our stale,
I have concluded that Borne iteniB there

TheSestutel,1! gire them for your
perusal. This work is carried on under
the auspices of the State Board of Agri
, culture at the expenr e of the tax-payers
it the state. Its object is to promote
the great.and important industry of ag
riculture by inducing the farmers, stock
rcen and fruit growers to take a higher
: etand in their respective branches the
farmer to improve, the quality and in
crease, the quantity of his vcapt, by n
more thorough system of tillage, rotation
of crops, selecting puro seed of improved
Tarieties. Concerning tho fertility of
the soil -improving the samt by sowing
nnd applying all tho manure, by growing
clover nnd turning it under. Tie stock
man to improve his herd .by a more care
ful selection of sound, thoroughbred an
inials, arid breed such stock as tho
market demands. The fruit grower to
improve fho-qunlity and iucrenso the
yield of his orchard, vineyard and berry
plantation by a more careful 'election of
varieties suited to our soil and climate, ' laid to rest in the city cemetery. Hie
and by more thorough cultivation, and ' sympathy of all go out to tho bereaved
by systematic spraying for the destxuc-! family in this their time of trouble and

The average yield or wheat in our
state is but a liltln over ten bushels to
the acre, it may be doubled. We have
tens of thousands of mongrel .bred
homes in our state for sale that won't

.market in the east is being supplied
with coach and family driving horses at
fancy prices. Some oppose pnying for
diseased animals killed, but we had. bel
ter do so than to bavo them traded all ,
over the country, spreading contagious
ilit-casea among hefclthy herds.
Some claim we aro growing too much
.fruit, but jtibt no., we are having n fruit

that they have their full share in the

Mrs. Hershberger united with tho
Christian church at a very early age and

throughout her life. Although she was
greatly attached to family und friends,
she was weary of sorrow and suffering,
and was ready to.go to the bosom of her
Father in heaven. When the hour of
her departure drew nigh, she rallied and
was able to enjoy the company of her
family, all of whom were presfett- Al
' though hor-body was racked with pain.
her last hours were peaceful and happy,
nnd she sank into a peaceful rest.
On tho last day of the old year her
body was conveyed to the Christian
church where she had so often worship
ed and a brief service was conducted by
Elder Alderman, ufter which tho re
mains were laid away to rest in tho cem
etery at this place.
