FOR TIE WEEK ENDING THURSDAY, FEBRUARY p
THE CROPS There has been no feature OF lm-
portance developed during the past week In refer-
enoe to the planting Of the next crops, the time
for which is now rapidly approaching. In some
sections there is considerable newspaper agitation
on the necessity Of paying more attention to pro-
visions, and curtaiing the area of cotton, but to
what extent this will actually take place is as yet
uncertain. The event which will most probably
restrict the operations Of planters will be the diff
hculty of procartng liberal advances, and up to
this time factors generally express the intention
of being unusually cautious on. the present price
OF the staple; but the amount Of the influence
this will exert remains for the future to indicate.

for the week up to Friday last were l5o 800 bales,

How to Keep eD Cool.

A CORRESPONDENT furnishes the Lon
don Times with the following hints, which,
will be found pertinenttO our own climate:
In these hot days a cool apartment is a
real luxury to be had far Oftener than most
people suppose possible. The secret con-
sists, not in letting in cool air, for naturally
all do that whenever they have the chance;
but in keeping out the hot air. If the ar
outside a room or house be cooler than the
air inside, let it in by all means but II it
be hotter, certainly keep it ont. eW ss.4
A staircase window left open during the
night will often cool the. passages ofa
house, and the rooms, too, iftheir doors be
not shut; but it must be closed at s or 8
o'clock in the morning, or, ifon the sunny
side, at 4 or O'Clock, and the blinds drawn
down. The mistake people generally
make is to throw open their windows at
all hours of the day, no matter whether
the atmosphere outside be cool or scorch-
ing. '- ~
Let US have some air, they say, and in
comes the treacherous breeze-for even
hot air is pleasant while it is gently blow
ing, taking away perspiration, and thereby
cooling the skin; but the apartment IS
made warmer, instead of cooler, and as
soon as they move out of the draught they
QnQ IQelI IOOM " W u1OAO uAOO-nROA e-AOAO
than before.
Let in cool air-keep out het-thst IS
the only formula to insure the minimum
of discomfort. Sitting rooms may gener-
ally be kept cool during the whole day if
the door be only opened for the ingress
and egress, and the windows kept closed
and shielded from direct sunshine by
blind. If the atmosphere ofa room be I'M
pure from any cause, let it. be renewed;
