The Caunse of Mexioan Poverty— Blovenly aud Stapld Methods in Agricnlture—Irrigation vs, Plows — Opening For American Inven- tions and Skill Correspondence New York Evening Post. Crry oF Mexico, April 22.—The pov- erty of Mexico may be traced directly to the elovenly system of farming which Is there #o universal. The agricultural re- sources of the land are enormous, as may bo snfficently proved from the fact th not over one-fifth of the best land on the great plateau Is under the plow; yet that one-fitth sapports millions of people, with antyle of farming that ln California was utterly worthless and would produce star- vation o the best sectiens of New York Vest tracts of the il on a belt of more certaln and abundant rains than any part of the east enjoys In summer lie yet unbroken and used only for stock range. In the dryer sectlona of the north parts millions of asres that would ralse crops in three years out of five, and with good cultiva- . | ton would raize something in the other : | two, millions more that could belrrigated if the water were properly dist Abated, as in Californis, instead of beiog wasted, now lie the same way. Of cultlyation tha Mexlican as a rule knows absolutely nothing, His sole con- ception of the utllity of plowing I to scratch up enough loose dirt to cover the seed, Occarionally a cornfield is xeen in which the plow may have been put once after the seed has been sown, but in the great majority of fields the ground Is never touched after planting. The sole trust after planting s reposed in water. / \ 1) ViR = fuetspated 2 0t BROAD GLAIR . wugine *#RY BEST OPERATING, AUICKEST SELLING AND 18T PURRBCT COORING ST0VE Trer offernd to the oublin TN If the ralnfall is sufficlent, well enough.

The plow makes a round-bottomed gatter in the ground two or three inches deep, sometimes deepor if the ground is in good condition. This gutter is about as strait as a rut In a New Jersey clay road and varles about the same in depth. The ridge of hard earth that remains be- tween these gutters varies in width from an {nch to four or five inches at the top. Upon this the seed is quite apt to be dropped occastonally, but it is difficul? to see how it can do much worse there than in the farrow with its hard bot- tom and sides. It Is no wonder the native feels compelled to drench the ground with water from the ditches, If fora week or so the urual afternoon showera hold off, Nothing but plenty of water could ralse a crop on land g0 tilled, and the wonder is that even that can do it. The amount of produce that is raised even by th!s mlserable ays- tem Is amazing. Itis doubtfal if any part of the United States can show a heavier yleld of corn and wheat to the acre for a serles of years than Mexico in those portions where there is sufficient rain, Certalnly no part can equal it 1f the two crops be coneidered. ~ For two crops a year are In Mexico a practical fact, and not, as In California, a theoreti- cal possibility hardly over realized. On much of the {rrigable lands wheat {s sown in the field from which the corn has been harvested,and as 8oon as this Is harvested corn is planted again, The corn is ralsed in summer and the wheat in the winter, when it is too cold for corn. Wheat must be irrigated, asit Is & shal- low-rooted plant, and there is little or no rain during the time of its growth Corn on most of the southern half of the plateau does not need {rrigation, the reports of correspondents, who scem unable to draw this dlstinction, to the contrary notwithstanding, as far vorth of the valley of Mexlco as Aguas Calientes, some %00 miles, the rainfall for fifteen years averages 19.70 inches, nine-tenths of it falling from May to Oc- tober {nclusive. The maximum s 33 14 in 1870, which s more than any eastern state {8 ever apt to get during that time. The minimum s 12,10, and that but once; much above the minimum for dry win- ters in California and very dry summers in the east. T ralnfall increases all the way to Mexico and below, and the belt spreads far away on each side, ms! ing a splendid agrlcaltural district. Stra gers toa country having & wet and dry season, and one that is sometimes irri- gated, seelng the dltches and water at hand, and the ground all lald off for frrl- gation, carelersly conclude that nothing can be raised withoutit, This, the an- alogous wisdom that but thrl;z years ago ronounced northern California *‘no good or farming,” that only fifteen years ago with all the experlence of the northern part to warn it, pronounced southern Californis “*of no use except for stock,” thus far dcne all the judging for Mesioo, The owners aud superintendent of the great ranches of Mexico are quite ready to adopt American machinery, but being entlemen whose severest labor has been he rolling of clgarettes, neither kno apy aere of its use than the whom it Is turned over. lts snd other moveable parts, which they are guite ly tc do if it is not locked up. inst the American plow the laborers have no prejudics whatever, end seem to make a falr affort to use it. uhe left hand must, however, be free for the gead, or the oxen would stop The pacu thercfore tries to manage the plow with one hand. Findiog two handles necesary, and one of them militating sgalnst his ribs oocasjonally, be cuts it off. The plow, of course, rans every bot st t, and ew in depth, and as It does even worse work than the ald wooden one, it 1s soon cast sside. It seems no betier with the sulky-plow. At Acambaro I saw about thirty Amerlesn lulkmlu". all fn line upon one ranch, rauning in black adobe, about alx weeks after the THE DAILY BEE---WEDNESDAY MAY 13, 1885 ralns had ceased. To make a furrow of any depth needed at least four stout horses. To each plow was attached a palr of 500-pound cattle, and a fat peon, himself a load for them, reclined laxuri- ously In the seat. The plows ture the ground up in_ broad flaxes about two inches thick. Halfs an Inch mere would have anchored the cattle in thelr tracks, Botween each furrow was left a ridge of unbroken ground about six or elght inohes wide. An Amerloan farmer who could speak Spanish and be patlent and courteous to tfi- peons could get good wages upon some of these large haclendas just to show the peons how to work. Most of the frult ralsing on the plateau is done wlith similar stupidity. The flavor of the apples and pears is excellent, and there is every resson to believe that all over the great plateau, where L 1s wet enough, mewmly all the froits of the United States msy be raised in the highest per- fectlon. Yet In most of the gardens there s no evidence of the ground hay Ing been stirred for many years, the sole dependence being upon soaking from ditches, In most of them aleo the tree! entirely too near each otherand 80 {rregularly planted that ploughing be- tween them would be Impoesible, even if dreamed of. Thera Is scarcely an sign of the pruning-knife, and le treea look more like blg quince bushes than any- thiog else, while the pear {s often barely recognizable. As in farming, they can- not concelve the poseibility of vegetation gotting through the shortest dry spell without water. In the valley of Mexico, in gardens where it was but four or five feet to ter below, and with dtlches flowing all around and through them, I found eveu olive trees banked up with soll three feet deep and three cr four feet on each side, to keep the roots from drying out during the winter. The trees were langalshing and bore mno frult of copscquence, when all they needed wasadry, sunny hillside. Theowner didnot tell me1 lied,but he looked aa it he thought 80 when I told him that In Oalifornia not only olives, but spricots, grapes, apples, pears, plums, ete., stood through a dry season nearly twice as long as that of Mexlco on land fifty to seventy feet from water, with a much less ralnfall in the wet season with a long hot summer to go through instead of a cool winter, yet withont a particle of frrigation, Terl- gation will greatly lncrease the yleld of fralt, but is now hardly anywhere neoes- sary to keep the trees alive. And water- Ing twlce or thrice during the summer is sofficient even to make plenty of good frult. It {s not strange that this is yet unknown in Mexico, for it was many years before it was known in Oaliforn The knowldege of how to dlspense with water has been to California quite as valuable a1 knowing how to get it, and many good crops of corn, potatoes, and other things are ralsed without irrigation and under far greater disadvantages in the way of scanty ralnfall, cold nights, dry winds, and hot epells, than they ever have in the growing season in most of Mexlco. When the Mexicans learn how to farm they can quickly pay their natlonal debt and have money to lend. —————— $500 Not Oallea For, It seems strange that it s neceesary to persuade men that you can cure thelr diseases by offerlng a premlum to the man who falls to receive benefit. - And yet Dr. Sage undoubtedly cured thous- ands of cases of obstinate catarrh with his “*Catarrh Remedy,” who would never had applied to him, if it had not been for bis offer of the above sum for an incur- able case. Who is the next bidder for cure or cash? ——— THE OLD SLAVE BELL. The Antithesis of the Liberty Bell—Its Present Condition. New Orleans Timss-Democrat. The *‘Liberty bell,” 80 often spostro- phized by orators, has its antithesls in the Louisiana exhiblt in the government buildieg. This is the old ‘‘Slave bell” that for many years called to work the 150 slaves on the Fontainebleu eugar plantation, This plantation was one of those princely domalns of the earlier planters of Loulsiana. It fronted on Lake Pontchartrain, having a water frontage of nine mlles. The orlginal proprietor was M. Bernard de Marigny, loyal French eettler of Loulsiana, who, on the occasion of the visit of Louls Phil- ippe to thils country, entertalned him right royally at his plantation, and was in tarn recelved by his imperial guest at the coart of France with distingulshed honors. The bell was cast in 1825, and tradition says that Mr. Margny, standiog over the large caldron filled with molten metal, dropped therein one thousand Spanish silver dollars to give the bell a clear and silvery tone. Three French inscriptions are on the bell, At the top is the legend, ““J'appartlens a Monsleur Bernard de Marigny,” while the other inscriptions spocify the time and place of founding, Oné striking point of resemblance be- tween the ‘‘Slave bell” and the Liberty bell is the fact that each one has a fissure in the side. Concernipg the fissure in the Slave bell a pretty legend is related. The bell stood in the center of the plan- tation, and was pealed to summon the foroe of slaves to and from their work, Early In the morning its clanging roused the tensuta of the quarters fo their daily tasks, and at eventide Its ellvery notes were borne on the seft breezes to the most distant corners of the great planta. tlon, At the sound of its evening peal the army of blacks, worn with thelr day's labor, would come trooping back to the rows of cabins that formed the quarters. A right welcome sound it was to those dusky toilers, and they learned to love the bell and to repeat tales of its won- drous purlty of tone and far-reaching sound, It s a tradltion cherlshed by these former tlaves, who daily obey the bell's behest, that on that morning when Lincoln }Jroolllmtd emancipation and freedom for all, the bell fell from its lofty pedestal and rent that fissure in its slde which now sllences it. Its power gone, with none to obey its behests, the bell chose perpetusl sllence to Impotent peallog, and now is but & mere memorlal of a bygone power. e —— Oastor Ol One of the chief uses to which castor ofl Is now put is that of dressing and soft- enlng leather for boots, It was formerly used for dosing children whose stomachs were disordered.

Her bright face was drawn with grimaces and her mouth was down at the ocorners, while her ripe, red lips were quiverlng with pain, As she came out ‘of the room with an elderly lady she cast an Indig- nant look in the direction of Mr, Henry L. Werne, the head salesman, who had left the same room but a moment before with a sharp-polnted and slender steel instrument in his hand. A close observer might have noticed a small crimson spot _on the lobe of the young lady's loft ear. This same crimaon spot, upon further Inveati- gatlon, would Fave been found to be a drop of blood, The young lady was an- gry, however, and smarting with palo, and she didn’t lloger any longer in the jewelry store than it required to walk to the door, which she slammed spitefully after her as she stepped out on the street with another witherlng look over her shoulder at the head salesman. *‘What’s tho matter?” asked a journal- ist, who had just stepped in to buy a $4,000 diamond pin for his new sprlng scarf, *‘I have been plercing the young lady's ear,” answered Mr. Werne, with a mean smile, “‘and she d!dn’t like the operatlon. 1 succeeded in Iiorclng one esr and then she got mad and left. She’ll be back In a day or two, hovever, to have the other one pierced. Young women must wear ear-rings, you know.” “Do you make a business of plercing enrs!” asked the newspaper man. “*We do a great deal of it here for our customers. At lcast I do a great deal of it. I don’t think anybody else In Louis- ville has ever undertsken the same kind of work. Within the past ten years I suppose 1 have plerced the ears of atleast 2,000 glrls and young ladles. 'The opera- tion Is a very simple one. All I require is a steel polat snd a stout cork. The lobe of the ear is placed on the cork and the steel point is pushed through in a twinkling. Then elther a bit of brass is left in the opening. or the ear rings are put in immediately.” “‘Is the operation painfal?” “Asarule it is not. That depands very much, however, upon the formaton of the lobe, Sometimes the lobe is thin and tender, Sometimes it s fat and flabby, and often it {s hard and greasy. A lobe of the last mentioned sort is the hardest to plerce, and in instances the groatest pain Is caused. As a rule, how- ever, the operation {s accompanied only by a twinge of paln, which s gone as soon as the needle is withdrawn.” “Do the ears become inflamed alter the operation?” “Yes, but as a rule very elightly. Fre- quently they are made painfully sore by an uncontrollable deeire that little girls have to scratch. Grown young ladles, however, generally obey our instructlons, and within a week all traces of the incls- fon 1s gone.” “At what age is the ear generally pierced?”’ “At from 4 to 14 years. Itis seldom that a girl gets to be more than 14 years old without baving worn ear rings,” *‘TLe aro exceptions, however. Only yesterday a married lady was in the store admlring a pair of esr rings. ‘My hus- band would buy these for me,’ she sald, ‘if 1 only had my ears plerced.” I trled to persuade her to submit to the opera- tion immediately, but she emphatically declined, and almost fainted when I brought out my steel point to show her how easily and peinlees the operation could be performed.” “‘Are you ever called to pierce the same ears more than once?” “Yes, quite frequently. Sometimes the brass is taken out too eoon and the opening grows together agaln. This re- quires a second incision, which is always more painful than the first. I knew one young lady whcse ears have been plerced four times, and she sent for me the other day to have them pierced sgain. The trouble in her cate lies In the fact that her ears grow so flat to her face that the Aemn“g of the ear-ring can hardly be secn. “Do you doall the ear-ring plercing that is done in Loulsville?” “1ehould ssy not. Many mothers pierce thelr daughters’ ears at home with an ordinary needle and keep the Incislon open by inserting & bit of broom- straw. This is a barbarous sort of cus- tom, however, and is nearly always ac- companied by excruciating pain and in- flammatfon. 1 have known instances where the lobe of the ear has been en- tirely lost by this rough operation.” “What do you charge for piercing one of esrs?”’ “Not acent, We do it gratultously for our customers, with a hope, of courss, of selling a pafr of ear-ringe.” *‘What 1s the profeesional tltle of one who plerces ears?”’ ¥ “Ho s called an auratotlst,” replled Mr, Werne, with such a blush that the entlre establishment took on a rosy hue. e ——— pal coachman had been married before, and had him srrested for bigamy.
