BARLEY-The market this week has been rather
inactive and the Guieude is noticeable because
the two previous weeks were characterized by lively
operations not entirely free from excitement The
speculative feeling in Feed descriptions, then so
pronounced, has wholly disappeared. There are few
buyers on future account, while bids for such de-
liveries very limited as to quantity. Spot trans
fers to day embraced 80 tons No. Feed at s. OBJ

we're sales of No on August account of 100 tons at

100-ton lot of No. in September or October at

AN EXPERIMENT WITH TOMATOES. This
season has been favorable one for toma.
toes, and, though the time for setting them
out has passed, 1t is not out of place to
give the result of several methods, by way
of experiments, which may interest those
engaged in growing them. Plants of the
same age and hight were placed in parallel
rows, one row being heavily MANFRED, and
treated in the usual manner, while the
other row was subjected to different pro-
cess Before the plants were set out a
square hole one foot In diameter was dug
for each plant, the depth being about two
feet. At the bottom, coal-ashes were
placed, and the plant was set directly on
the ashes. A mixture of manure and dirt
was then filled In around the plant, which
was placed at such a depth as to leave only
few inches of the top shoots remaining
out of the ground. The manure used was
less than for the rows set with plants In the
usual manner. The effect is plainly per-
ceptible, as the plants in those rows con.
tanning the coal-ashes have made double
growth, and tower high above those in the
other rows. 1t is not claimed that the ap-
piicstion of coal ashes was the cause of
such rapid growth, as the experimenter
used them for convenience, but the prepar.
alton made by their use admitted of good
drainage, while the receptacles OF the roots
were deep and safe from dryness, and the
application of the manure and dirt was
such as to allow the plants good feeding
room, and plenty of it. The extra prepar-
alton saved manure and gained growth.

"woMAN's HEART"
Alas that man should ever win
So sweet shrine to shame and sin
As womans heart.
What is weman's heart? thing
Where all the deepest feelings spring;
A hsrp whose tender chords reply
Unto the touch in harmony;
a boat that skill will blindly move
Upon the treacherou5 seas of love.
What is its love? An endless dream,
A cEangeless star, ceaseless stream,
A beauty and mystery.
Its tears IS light as April showers,
Its smiles as bright as April flowers;
Its joy as sweet as summer air,
And dark US winter its despair.
What are its hopes? Rainbows which throw
radiant light where'er they go;
Bright cheats that come with siren words,
Beguiling US like summer birds;
Smiling when heaven is overcast,
But melting into storms at last.
What is its hate A passing frown,
A single weed midst blossoms sown,
That cannot flourish there for long;
A harsh note in an angels song;
passion, that scarce hath part
Amidst the gems of woman's heart
