York Chamber OF Commerce and OF the Boston
Board OF Trade who are in favor OF a mOdi1ca-
tlOn or the present laws relating to the collec-
Ilon OF revenue from customs. The views of the
New York Chamber OF Commerce were in part
presented by Mr.. DOrman B. Eaton. who gave
illustrations of the unfair and One-sided opera
ton OF the present laws regarding the assess
ment OF duties, showing how the importer is er-
urely at the mercy OF SubOrdinaJeS in the ap-
praisers department and has practically no ap-
peal rom their decision. The principal remedy
suggested tand which is embodied in a bin pre-
pared by the New York Chamber of Commerce
and introduced by Mr.. Fernando Wood is to
nave the duties assessed on the value of the
goods in the home Instead OF in the foreign
market. The hearing is TO be continued TO-
morrow, and the secretary OF the Treasury is to
be notified so that he may be present In person
or by deputy.

Binding for Buds.
Florida AaricMItMrist j.

Editor OF the Florida AgriculturiSt:
Will say to J. H. G. in answer to
his inquiry in regard to budding trees,
the leaf of the cabbage palmetto is
far the most suitable and superior
binding,tor buds that can be use. To
procure the necessary ties, select the
white center leaf just above the cab
bages this leaf before unfolding is
tender and plant. Cut it off close
down to the stem, separate the seq.
ments of the leaf, place in the sun for
an hour or two or hold over fire for
few minutes, the sun drying is pre-
terable) after the Leaf is sufficiently
tough by the heat, which can be de-
termined by its being like thick rib
bon and not brittle under the touch
then rip off the cords on each seq
ment of leaf, then rip up the leaf in
the required length. l find about
sixteen inches by one-third inch is
the best size Tor ties on ordinary bud
ding stock, say an average of one to
two inches. These ties can be made
very rapidly; in ripping up the leaf,
by placing properly, one stroke Of
TIE knife will rip out a dozen, thou
sand ties can be ripped out in an
hour. These ties are much better
than strings or cloth will not hold
and retain water thereby sobbing the
buds, and will give under the growth
OF the stock, preventing cutting into
the bark as is the case when strings
are used on rapidly growing stocks.

How it PAYS to Raise Currants.

Let us look for q moment into the
details of growing, say half an acre
of currants, and note what the result
is likely to be. A piece of land fit
ted tc produce'a good crop ofpotatoes
in good condition to set to currents.
To set them four by five feet will re-
quire about 200 bushels, and they
would cost about SIS per 100, or $50.
During the first season potatoes may
be planted between the rows and be-
tween the bushes, without materially
injaring the growth of the bushes, or
tue yield OF potatoes. During the
second year, beans may be planted
between the rows, which, with what
fruit is Contained, should pay the
original $50. And the third year
should produce 1Ipounds to the bush.
ell, which at 6 cents per pound,
would amount to sos. After the bush
had attained its growth, with good
culture, affair average yield would be
about three pounds to tue bush
which, at cents per pound, would
amount to $216.- The expense for
labor and manure annually would not
vary materially from that required on
half an acre or potatoes after they
were planted. sL M.....a AIDA
