soldered one on each side. The three are
then passed between polished steel rollers,
and tho result is strip ofheavy plated

Russian Grain.
New York Hsrald.


1t was not many years since that
Russia was regarded as the granary of
Europe. but Of late years the United
States and India have to a great extent
become the sources Of supplies. This
has resulted in the change in the oul
tivation Of the soil by which free
labor was substituted for that of serfs,
but owing to a number Of circum-
stances in which the usurer aud the
land laws play an important part the
new method is less efficient than the
old; and second, from change in the
manner Of marketing the grain. For
merly Russian wheat was held in very
high esteem, and at the different mar
kets quantities Of wheat, whose ex.
cellence was guaranteed by a knowl-
edge of its source could always bC
had. Now, as a rule, the cultivatort
are in financial straits and mortgage
their crops to spectators, who do moi
hesitate to mix a high grade with {
low grade and export it all as higl
grade wheat. These dishonest meth
DDS have become so general as seri
ously to affect the foreign demand fo
Russian cereals, and a system Of gov
eminent inspection is proposed as a
extreme remedy for the situation
Were as effective a system Of grain in
Speotion as exists in this countr
adopted, we might well fear the re
suits of Russian competition; aud
our export of cereal products i
diminished, how can we hope to main
tain the favorable "balance2"

Ask any or all of the most eminent physi-

"What is the best and only remedy that
can be relied on to cure all diseases Of the

to retain urine, and all the diseases and all

"And they will tell you explicitly and en-

for all liver diseases or dyspepsia, constipa-
