They arn opening up a country such as the United States was twenty-five years oga. starting where we did then , but with all the modern lirpfovotrfcnts and the experience which this country has , given them. In the harvests Argentine has the advantage of cheap labor. Shiploads of Italians are brought nvcr ot every harvest and returned after the harvest is over. It takes eighteen days for these Bhlps to mnke th * trips , hut the Imported Waters arc carried very eneaply ami It is found profitable by the Argentine land owners to make use of them during the harvests , even by paying their passage both ways. The markets of the world have al- icady been affected by the food products of Argentine. It 14 still a question whether the great farm owners , with all the advantage - vantage of cheap labor and the concessions Krnntcd by the Argentine government , will 1)0 able to make a lasting success cf their agricultural adventures. The big bonanza farmers of the west have found that they ceuld not make a success of their operations and It 's ' now the policy of most of them lo divide their farms up and sell them , and If they are not able to sell , to lease them upon advantageous terms to lli men who wish to operate smaller farms. The bonanza farmers of Argentine have the advantage ot reaching the seaboard more quickly and at a small cost compared to the transportation of products from the great plains of the United Slates , where farming operations have been tried on a large scale , but the distance by pea to the markets of the world Is much greater. Hut with water transportation , dls- tance does not count for much In raising staple products for the markets. It Is the opinion of the official who spoke on this subject that tho'Unlted States will In the future find a formidable competitor In agricultural products In the Argentine He- public. _ . .DLHSOUSSINU TIIU OUOP UKl'OKT.S.

Delegates from the National Hoard of Trade met the Inter state commission today to discuss Improve ments In the methods of gathering govern ment crop reports , statistics , etc. Ths meeting was called to order by A. C. Hay- inond of Detroit , who explained that It grew out ot a resolution on the subject Introduced at the meeting of the National Hoard ot Trade In Washington last January. A. C. llaymond , Detroit Hoard of Trade ; J. C. Urown , statistician New York Produce ex change' ; G. D. Hosers , Minneapolis Hoard of Trade ; George S. Stone , Chicago Hoard ot Trade ; Dcnnlson H.

Chicago Hoard of Trade ; William H. Tucker , Philadelphia Hoard of Trade ; Wil liam G. Hoyd of the Merchants' exchange of St. Paul are In attendance. Secretary of Agriculture Morton , being atkcd to address the gathering , said he pre sumed the delegates were aware they were entering upon an Inquiry ot great gravity and difficulty. It was a matter between two great classes , the producers and consumers , as to what was needed , he said. In order to K * accurate statistics , he said , an annual crop census was needed , after which approx imate facts of crop acreage could b3 obtained. Some persons thought this was too costly. He hid discussed the matter with the presi dent and he believed It was the only way. It had been estimated It would cost $500.000 a year , but the secretary bUved ! even If It should cost three times as much It would be money well expended. Considerable discussion as to the character of the men who furnished the crop reports followed. Henry Robinson , statistician ot the Agricultural department , said farmers were the main source of Information. Mr. Stonp of Chicago said ho believed country bankers would bo the bst men possible for agents. This proposition was attacked by several members , who said bankers would bo go directly Interested , that they might be In fluenced In making the reports. Mr. Davis suggested that the reports should come from the township assessors , who would report to the county auditors , who should re port direct to the Agricultural department. In answer to an Inquiry from Mr. Ray , Mr. Iloblnson said ho was not sure whether the agents In the various counties were known to one another. In some Instances he supposed they wsrc. Ho also said the department changed hands If they were found sending Incorrect reports. H. W. Snow , who was formerly assistant statistician of the department , said the weak ness .In the present machinery Is the paucity of data used In making up the reports and the assumption that a single man Is able to answer accurately for a whole county. In- ptrad of one return from n county , there should be one or more returns from every ctvit division of the county , thus limiting ench man's answer to the district Immedi ately under his eye , and with which he Is pcrseltally familiar. Instead of 2.000 scat tered , returns , each pretending to represent a whole county , there should be CO.OOO. These reports should bo made by farmers. An other corps should bo organized from local milters In ? ach county and still another from local grain dealers. J. C. Ilrown said the government crop re s- ports once were- accepted as accurate , but they now fall flat. He had noticed In state itM where the Farmers' Alliance was best organ- ' ? Iwd and maintained there were th ? greatest errors In the reports. The conference will reassemble tomorrow to listen to a plan of Improvement to be reported by a special committee of the delegates. .

WASHINGTON , April 15. In view ot ths great rile In the price of beef and the re ported scarcity of cattlf. the chief of the Bureau of Animal Industry , Dr. Salmon , has recommended to the sccreary ot agriculture the admission of Mexican cattle Into thi United States under stringent regulations , calculated to Insure a rigid Inspection of all cattle admitted. Dr. Salmon believes such a course may bo safely pursued with the exercise of due vigilance , and that uuder the circumstances It Is jndlclous. It Is hopd by this means to check the tendency to ex cessive prices to the consumer , without In juriously affecting the Interests of the beef produc rs , In accordance with these recom mendations Secretary Morton today Issue ! the following special order : It. Is hereby ordered that th ? regulations of this depaitmcnt ' issued February 5.

( Special Tele gram. ) H"iiry Kohl , who has for some time been clerk to the Inspector at On : a In and who would , by operation of the recently It- sued order , be transferred to duty with tlie adjutant general's department , has written Inspector General Ilreckcnrldgo here asking that he bo allowed to remain In the Inspec tion Fcrvlco. Ttere are only six Inspection districts now , so that In making the assign ments < to the district six of the twelve for mer clerks were left entirely out on account of lack of places for assignment , among these being the clerks at Omaha and St. Paul. The selections were made , however , at random , and no choice was made as to merit. A number of the clerks assigned have expressed dissatisfaction In the changes ot station required and as several changes arc likely to occur It Is posilblo that Kelil may have his wishes gratified and be allowed to remain with the Inspector general's department. Herman J. Hick. Inipcctlon clerk at San Antonio , was assigned to duty at Santa Fc , but he has telegraphed that he would bo willing to be transferred to duty with the adjutant general's department.

WASHINGTON. April 15. According to the United States consul at Zurich , Switzer land Imports $40,000 worth of paper more than she exports , the larger part coming from France , Austria and England. Some ot the finer qualities ot American papers come to Switzerland Indirectly anil the con sul sees an opportunity to build up a con siderable direct trailu cither by sending American agents to Switzerland with full samples or by catalogues and price lists. Paper freights from Antwerp , the nearest port to Swiss points , average J1.15 per 220 pounds. The Swiss make ordinary printing paper and common writing paper at non- compctltlva rates and the market must be looked for In the flncr grades , and espe cially surface coated papers , lime parch ments and fine letter papers and colored tissue. Our people might also compete In flno wall papers , which are expensive al though much used in Switzerland. DII < CommUtloii Culled to Mrot Mnj 1. WASHINGTON. April 13.

The department editors of the May Day Dee are all hard at work. One of them Is In search of a woman to write a story about dogs , and another is making a canvass for Items about the fads of Omaha's women , whllo another Is racking her brains for quo tations to fit her articles. The people outside are beginning to hear about the paper. Ono woman who has been wearing out the gray matter of her brain over the paper for the past fortnight nearly fainted yesterday when another dear crea ture rushed up to her with the astounding information that the women are going to publish tlio May Day nee. Evidently the dear creature Is not an up-to-date woman. Anonymous contributions will bo sent to the waste backet , by the most direct route. The average woman knows about as much about running a newspaper as the average man does. The only difference Is she doesn't think she knows It nil , while no man over lived who couldn't edit a paper. Special articles from the pens or type writers of many well known women are al ready promised , and the twenty-four pages will bo filled with an array of good reading of which no Omaha person need ba ashamed.
