VennOr's PrOba bilitieS for April.

Mr.. Henry G. Vennor, the Canadian
weather prophet, makes the following
weather predictions for April:
There will be sharp frost in the begin
ming Of April with sonwfall on he 4th
or 5th, but the spring vii open iavorably
and everything will be pretty vel
advanced by April Is. Floods may be
expected in Chicago about the first week
in April, with high winds also prevail
ing in the early part of the month, Snow.
falls are probable about April 5. Naviga-
ton is likely to open on Lake Outarlo
about Aprit 7.
"rhc Il. Lawrence will be open about
the 9th Or nth, and the first steamship
viii probably arrive about the 18th or 18th
Tho we<th.r will be very stormy in the
lower provinces about the goth, with very
high water prevailing, but in the Wss'
April " i'll | e dry month. There will be
warn weI,her just following the 20 b.
ending in thunder storms on the Gath and
2Jth. Snowstorms are probable in the
far West on the 25th and 26th, and snow
falls are net unlikely to occur in England
1t the close of the month. The month
will end wet and cold, but, on the whole
will bs like May month"

New Advertisements.
Read the advertisement. of Mr. Jesse
Marden in this issue. Mr.. Marden has enc
of the oldest established scale factories in
the country and the standard quality OF
his sea es, speaks for Itself. There is now
so much cheap and bogus work on the
market that eur people are very often al
ured by the chcapness of thing as com
ticle, into buying it, and to pay about
'hree times its actual va ue. Now We have
no hesitancy in recommending Mr.. Mar
den's work, as you will find it to be ex
actly what he represents. His scales have
stood every test to which they have been
subjected, and are in every way fine, ser
viceable articles. Call on him for your
scales and you may be sure OF what you
get.
Mr.. E. d. Hallack advertises a hand
seed drill for gardens, alss fine lot 81
choice garden and flower seeds, We have
examined this drill and can truthfully say
that too much cannot be said Of It's merits
1t is just the thing that gardeners want
1t sows all kinds of seed, from the light
est flower to the heaviest vegetable seed
and never fails to do its work. 1t is sim.
pie in its construction and cannot get out
of order. We will furnish these drills at
the manufacturers price, and anyone de-
string to know more about them can gel
information by calling at this e:tice.
Notice the change in the advertisement
of Messrs T. Norris & Co, the extensive
stove dealers 40 s. Calvert street. Balti-
more. This firm is well known for its fair
dealing and keeps always in stock al the

better than call IN Aessrs Norris { Co.

Meeting Of Tobacco Growers.

N ect10& Of 1ODACcO uTOWCTS
1t has been sugges ed by some OF the
county papers that, now that the export
ers and buyers and rspackers and com
mission merchants, and Others interested
in the tobacco trade, have met and re-met
reso'u,ed and re-resoluted for the protec-
ton OF their intsres's. it would be in order
for the tobacco growers to ho'd conven'
ton or mass meeting an discuss the ques-
ton - it concerns their interests, and q
dept SEINE measures for their protection
We cordially approve this idea, and think
that the importance Of the subject fully
warrants such action. We do not know
Of any place in the tobacco growing coun
ties more central, easy OF access and in
every way fitted for such Il meeting than
Port Tobacco. Let US by all means have
. convention Of representatives. of the to-
basco growing interests in Prince George
Cslver', St. Mary's and harles counties al
Port Tobacco 1t is highly important
that concert of action ehou'd he secured
in adopting measures for he prot ction
of our in erests.

Da ma ge to Fruit Trees.

We have been Informed by several
extensive fruit growers along the Potomac
that large numbers of their peach trees
have been destroyed 10y the extreme sever
ity Of the past winter. 1t is familiar
complaint to hear Of the fruit crop being
destroyed by late frosts in the Spring, but
do not recollect of ever having before
heard Of the trees themselves being killed
by the severity of the weather as is repre-
sented in this case. One gentleman in
formed US that at least One-half of his
