A sweeter song than e'r was sung

A note of cheer from Christ orr Lord;

Obi grieving heart, Come unto Ne.
Obi wise provision, sweet command,

A fri nd to find on either hand.
A light for prospect dreaIy.
A friend who knows our bitter need,
OF each endeavor taking heed;
Who calls to every soul opprest,
Come unto Me, I'll give you rest
Come unto Me-" The ways not long,
His hands are stretched TO meet thee,
Now still thy sob bing, list the song
Which everywhere shall greet thee.
Here at His feet your burden lay,
Why meath it bend anO her day.
Since one so loving calls TO thee,
"Ohl heavy laden, come to Me-
A sweeter song than e'er was sung
BY poet, priest or sages;
A song which thro' all heaven has rung
And down thro' all the ayes.
How can we turn from such a strain,

COMMERCIAL.

The change in the weather has to some extent
had an effect on the business Of the city. The
continued cold weather of the last month and
the first part of the present one had a tenden-
cy to make trade dull in almost every Depart
ment of commerce. There were but few coun-
try buyers who ventured away from home'
and made their purchases by order, buying
from hand to mouth. AS the roads are now
becoming passable and the weather milder,
merchants are hopeful that trade VIII brisken
up greatly during the coming week. Quota
lions general rule have fuctuated but
slightly during the week. The
GROCERY MARKET
has almost held its own since our last weekly
review. Coffee and sugar in steady de-
mand, with only a few changes occurring in
quotations.. Other articles are in fair demand
at unchanged prices.
DRY GOODS
have been moving of steadily since our last
report. Staples, which are always in demand,
are steady, with no decided changes in figures.
Our merchants are clearing their shelves and
counters for their spring and summer stocks,
which viii be large and well selected. The
spring trade, it is expected, will be heavier
this season than for some years past.
FOREIGN FRUITS.
The market is well supplied; the demand for
oranges and lemons is fairly active, and prices
are fiuctuating but little.
DRUGS.
Dealers in this department of trade report
the business OF the past week being quite
good, and quotations as general rule have
undergone but few changes.
coUSTRY PRODUCE.
The snow and cold weather has caused con.
tinued lIght receipts, which has had a tend

market to-day was weaker. Eggs continue

how they divide this work between them.
DIGEsTIBLE INGREDIENTS OF FooD-RATIo OF
ALBUMINoIDs TO CARBOHYDRATES.
OF course only the digesuble parts of the
foods go to nourish the animal. The figures
given in the comprehensive table herewith
for the per centage of digestible matters are
calculated from the average results of, l
should think, some loo or more expert
ments. such as have been described in previ-
Gus articles, each one more accurate and
complete than any ever made in this coun-
try. The digestibility of some of the mater
ia!s, as Hungarian grass, which have not
been tested, is calculated from the known
dlgestibIlity of similar foods. The t1gures OBJ
tanned for German foods are applied to
the corresponding American products. The
snutritive ratio Tin 10th column) expresses
the ratio of dlgestible albuminoids to digeti-
BILE carbohydrates and fats leach pound OF
fat being assumed equal to 5, or, more ac-
curately, 2.44 lbs. of carbohydrates). This is
an important practical matter. The reason
why straw, with a ratio of 1:30. that is, only
one pound of albuminoids to 80 lbs. of carbo-
hydrates, is not worth as much as good hay
with a ratio of IS, that is one pound of al
buminoids to every eight pounds OF carbo-
hydrates, is not simply that the straw has
less digestable matter, but that it has less
albumlnoids. The way TO mske it good, is
to mix it with clover. bran cotton seed meal,
meat-scrap, or fish-scrap, that have album
noids in excess. Jusr this is done with great
profit.
THE MONEY VALUES OF FOODS
in the table are calculated by assigning a
certain price to each pound of digestible
ingredients. The prices here are those given
by Wolff for Germany in 1879, Wis, album
inoids and fats each AZ cents per pound,
and carbohydrates 8 10 cents per pound.
They vary little, but not widely. from the
values IN many OF our markets. OF course,
these values are only relative, and apply
only when properly fed. Future investi-
cations will lead to more accurate calcula-
tons. The last column shows how the foods
compare with good meadow nay English
grasses) taken as a standard.
