4" ALI in Favor Of the Dealer"

They tell of a jolly sugar planter
who, in the days of specie and slavery,
found himself in New Orleans with the
proceeds of his crop in his pocket, anx-
ious to invest them in the pursuit of
happiness. Having duly primed him
self at the st. Charles, he was wander
ing along the streets in search of faro
bank, when his attention was attracted
by an Italian who was turning the crank
of his hand organ, on the top of which
moved and danced a number of puppets,
one of which held plate for contribu-
tons. Taking this for a novel game of
chacge, the planter, wholly unsophisti-
Gated and more than half inebriated,
resolved to buck the tiger, and placed
So piece on the plate. The italian
ground on, the figure dextriously tilted
the money into basket, the italian SOL
EMMY placed it in his pocket. "Here
goes to get even," said the planter as
he planked ten, which shared the same
fate. Fifteen out here's twenty"
The imperturbable Italian pocketed the
twenty and still turned the crank. The
disguised planter departed with the re-
mark: "Well, never was lucky, but
blamed if l ever see game before
where all the percentage was in favor
of the dealer /"

Alsike Glover as a Feed for Bees.

During the discussion on the subject
of bee-feedinP, at the last meeting OF
the n. A. Bee keepers Association, the
following facts were elected: Mr..
Allen sowed. some two years ago; came
up we'll had a good start bloomed
first year bees worked well on it; did
not yield honey much after white clover;
it bloomed little the second time,
about equal to white il grows taller,
blooms sometime. II will pay for pas
turage alone, Sows a mixture now OF
timothy, alsike and red clover. This
makes a hay which stock like. The
patch where he sowed the alsike first is
still in it, but he thinks the white clo-
yer will eventually take the ground
from 1T. A gentleman from Giles
county, Tennessee, said his experience
was limited. He prepared his ground
two weeks in advance of sowing, which
gave the weeds start but it came up
and bloomed finely first season moved
it, but had scant crop bees stored
honey from it rapidly while it was in
bloom, but do not know its quality.
Mr.. Murray said that it blooms we'll
with him, but dries up like everything
else there in August. He got fifty
pounds from one colony in three weeks
on the fall pasturage. Mrs. Upper
esteemed it of great value as a honey
plant. Reports were very different as
to its qualities hay crop. Mr.. Hes
ter said that in his section they had
only May and June honey, and anything
that would lengthen the season would
be valuable. DIR. Hamlin had twenty
five acres it came up we'll. Next sea-
son white clover came, and the second
year gave fine pasturage. The third
year the white had the ascendency !;
fifth year, plowed it up. He thou lit
it better than any other clover for hay
or pasturage. Thinks it would do we'll,
even south, On r Oh moist land. 1t was
far preferable TO red clover in the
south. Mr.. Murray said that it has a
tap.root, which, reaching the sub.soil,
makes it valuable in South Carolina and
Georgia. Mrs. Upper said that in II
linois and Iowa it is being largely sown
in orchards, and it is esteemed valuable,
when turned under as fertilizer. Alb.
ner Pope said Rocky Mountain bee plant
was not as valuable as alsike, though it
did yield some honey. Mr.. Gilmore
had two pieces of alsike, one or dry
and the other on moist land. On the
latter it grew finely stock left all
other pasturage to eat it as long as there
was root, even, remaining ; considered
it preferable for hay to all others

port that the advance of gold to $50 is
disorganizing every branch of trade,
and that the retail dealers and import
ers cannot hold out much longer. The
credit of Cuban merchants abroad, it is
not surprising under these circumstan-
ces, is seriously impaired. Even the
most respectable houses complain that
their correspondents refuse to furnish
them with consignments, and will only
sell them small invoices at short dates.
The suffering among the poor, too, is
increasing to an alarming extent, and,
as during our own memorial panic of
