Tobacco Leaves.

The State chemist of Connecticut, In
his report, presents some interesting
information in reference to the tobacco
crop, with the results of tests upon the
tobacco leaves. The general sumsry
of the report is as follows: The most
highly valued tobacco in New England
Is the thin, tough, elastic leaf, which
burns readily to ashes. Those leaves
containing the most carbonate Of pot
ash does not favor the burning. and
some tobacco manufacturers improve
the favor and burning quality by arti-
ficially impregnating the leaf with
acetate, citrate, or tartrate of potash,
applying the latter in solution and then
drying. Chlorine Injuries the tobacco,
as does also nitric acid. Sulphuric
acid, united with potash, soda, or lime,
fayors the burning of tobacco: The
best tobacco is produced on well-drain-
ed, warm, sandy lands. 1t is believed
heavy manuring increases the quanti-
ty of the crop generally at the expense
OF quality as regards texture.

DIR. Kedzie, Of the Michigan Agri-
cultural College, gives the following
account of the injurious action of salt
on trees: son the college grounds
there formerly grew q fine. vigorous
specimen of common sassafras appar-
emily in perfect health. A quantity of
strong brine was inadvertently thrown
beneath this tree, forming stagnant
pool In its immediate vicinity. In q
very short time the tree began to man.
ifest signs OF decreasing vitality. The
salt was absorbed unchanged in such
immense quantities, that entering the
circulation, it effioresced upon the sur
face Of the leaves as white crystalline
deposit, and the tree soon after died" /"

What is o Western Mar? /?


He is man who has travelled. Men
now ihf business at the West are in
general older than the States where
they live, and so must have travelled.
Not one in six of the Nebraskians was
born in Nebraska. No Western. per-
haps has voyaged as far as Bayard
Taylor and some few other Easterlings.
But western travellers are more multi
tudinous. Ofeighteen Americans who
chartered Cairo steamer to 60 up the
Nile in 1868, ten resided in Detroit or
west of it. The proportion would be
larger to-day. In western village
you always find those who before set
Ting have roved over half a dozen
States. But in New England you con-
stantly encounter those who were new
er out of their native county. Twenty
years ago there lived in South Danvers,
Mass, one Miss Eden, near q hundred
years old. During the century Of her
pilgrimage, so far from journeying to
Philadelphia or even New York, she
had never been in Boston, though born
within thirteen, miles from IL. Her
most distant expedition had been five
and one half miles to Marblehead. She
had been there only once, and that for
the purpose Of having the smallpox,
some years before the revolutionary
war. 1t will be long before the West
can show such a phenomenon, ''fixed
like q plant to one peculiar spot"
q All the better for the West. Each
man there finds that he can do best, If
not in one place, then in another.
Along the Burlington aud Missouri
River Railroad In Nebraska, there are
many who have bought lands on long
credit, and are developing them into
grain and stock farms with their earn
ings in Wisconsin lumber camps, Cali
fornia diggings, or while freighting to
Colorado and Montana. Itspeaks well
for Nebraska, that legiOns fock there
to make Q start from 80 many quarters
where they earned money to make
start with. Nebraska Is for farmers,
and farmers for Nebraska.-lAG J

PORTLAND, OREGON.
A Great .COnfiagratiOn..--Twenty-
three Blocks COnSumed.


PORTLAND, OREGON.
A Great COnfiagration..--T
three Blocks COnsumed.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. IA most
destructive fire broke out in Portland,
Oregon, at four O'Clock this morning.
Twelve blocks are now In flames and
the fire Is spreading. The FIRE depart
ments of Vancouver and Oregon City
and Salem are on the way. The water
supply Is failing. The fire commenced
near the Metropolitan Hotel. Nearly
all of the city bounded by Yamhim
street on the north, Second street on the
west, Columbia street on the south, and
the river on the east, Is in flames. sa
A noon dispatch from Portland re-
ports the fire fully under CONTROL
Twenty-three blocks are In total ruins.
The fire originated in the furniture
store of Lurgin Il SCHNEIDER, where NO
fire nor light was used, and it was.
doubtless, incendiarism. The st. Cha's
Hotel, the largest building in the city,
and two stores were the only buildings
saved on Front street. The st. Charles
Hotel was damaged $40, ,0O0. The Wal
ker Sash and Door Factory was destroy
ed; loss $4,000. The Oregon Iron
Works were on fire five times. One
house stands In a space OF eight blopks
on the east side of Second street. One
fireman's leg was broken and several
injured during the fire. A second fire
was started In q house at tha corner Of
Third and Taylor streets, but 1T was ex-
tinguished and the inceudiary caught
at the Salem depot. i'''. -. = Fl. /.
The Portland fire commenced at 4:2O.
In twenty minutes it had spread a
block before the stream was applied
The Metropolitan Hotel was burned to
the ground. The wind rising spread
the fire In ali directions: When the
Salem departmentarriyed seven blocks
were consumed. They stopped the
further northward paegress Of the fire.
When all available assistance arrived,
there were only seven engines to sub
due the FIRE, half a mile in length, and
a quarter of a mile wide. As fast as
suppressed in one direction it broke
out in another. The new fires are sup.
posed to have been the work Of incen.
diaries, The fire ceased fer want Of ma,
terisl. Among the losses are two en-
CINE houses, two sash factories, thret
foundries, four mills, five hotels, one
hundred stores, and two hundred and
fifty dwellings,. One hundred and fifty
families are homeless, and encamped
/ In the public parks. The estimated
loss Is 81 SOC, 600, insured for two hun
dred thousand dollars in foreign com
psnies, the east being heavily interest
ed. The Imperial losses eighty thous

stung. No remedy being near at hand
I remembered Mr.. Gordon,s note on
the cure Of bee stings, sat page 461 of

recommended him to apply the, com-
