Firm.

Buyers Active but Close Prices
Firm.
There has been great activity among
buyers during the past week, but it is inn
possible to find out the extent Of their
operations. Wherever they hear of an
ursold crop they post off and look at it,
sometimes driving many miles for tue
purpose. They generally buy, but seldom
tell what they pay and latterly the farm
ers have become almost as close mouthed
as the buyers, and it is with difficulty the
terms of sales can be obtained. 1t is gen-
orally conceded, however, that not one
eighth of the crop remains in the hands of
the growers; that large proportion of it
is low grade goods, and the bulk of tho
good goods remaining unsold will be pack
cd by the growers and held for a rise. A
week or two more will probably wind up
the season for the purchase of new 10
bacco.
There was good deal of activity in the
old tobacco market also last week, and the
crop of 1881 is growing in favor. Holders
arc firm, and even those who bought at
high figures, and were willing a few
weeks ago to sell at sacrifice, are now
more hopeful and demand a margin of
profit.
Now that the revenue tax on tobacco
and cigars has taken effect it is hoped
and believed that both dealers in and man.
ufacturers OF tobacco and cigars will be
benefited, and that there will be more
stability in the trade than has existed for
many months past.
The farmers are doing very little yet
towards getting in the crop of 1888. The
unusually backward spring, the success
sion of late snow storms with frequent
heavy frosts, bave tended to deter opera
tions. From Various sections of the coun-
ty reports come that that the farmers will
cultivate less tobacco this year than they
have been in the habit of cultivating. The
reasons given are that the crop at all times
is an uncertain one, subject to ruin by
draught, hail, flea-bite and other causes,
and that the prices received for the past
years crop were not remunerative, and
that larger and surer returns from the
outlay of labor and capital may be made
by cultivating other crops. Then the scare
started that the importation of Sumatra
tobacco would drive Pennsylvania leaf out
of the market has had something to do in
determining our farmers to devote less
time and space to the weed.
Our Bart correspondent says : A few
lots of tobacco have been sold in the two
past weeks amounting to about acres; We
have been unable to get the prices. Ken.

HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.

It will be apparent to any one, who VIII eh- smine SOLID GOLD WATCH, that aside rom the necessary thickneSs for engraving ana polishine lafge proportion of the preciou- metal used, is needed not only to stiffen ana hold the engraved portions in place, and sup ply the necessary solidity and strength The surplus gold is actually needless so far as UTrL- rry and beauty are concerned. In JAMES BOSS PATENT GOLD WATCH CASES. this WASTE of precious metal IS overcome anu the SAME soLIpITY AND STRENGTH pro0uceu ~ from one-third to one half of the usual ccss oA solid cases. The process is of the most simple nature as follows: plate of nickle composi- tion metal, especially adapted to the purpose, has two plates of SOLID COLD soldered one on each side. The three are then passed between polished steel rollers, and the result IS striP of heavy plated composition, from which the cages. backs, centres, bezels &c, are cut anu sbsbsS by suitable dies and formers. The gold fin these eases is sufficient to admit or aia kinds of chasing, engraving and enameains 1; the engraved cases have been carried until worn perfectly smooth bS time and use without removing the gold. THIS IS THE ONLY CASE MADE WIIh TWO PLATES SOLID GOLD AND WARRANT ED BY SPECIAL CERTIFICATE.

A Homemade Telephone.

The American Farmer gives the fol- lowing directions for making 8 cheap home made telephone:
 To make good and serviceable tele- phone, good from one farm house to an- other, only requires enough wire and two cigar boxes. First select your boxes, and make hole about half an inch in diameter in the center of the bottom of each, and then place one in each of the houses you wish to connect; then get five bounds of common iron stove pipe wire, make a loop in one end and put it through the holo i'll your cigar box and fasten it with a nail; then draw it tight to the other box, supporting it when necessary with stout chord. You can ealily run your line into the house by boring hole through the glass. Sup port your boxes with slats nailed across the window, and your telephone is com, plete. The writer has one that is two hundred yards long and cost forty-fve cents, that will carry music when the or. gan is played thirty feet away in another room.

Deserts.

The largest desert is that of Sahara, a vast region of Northern Africa, extending from the Atlantic Ocean on the west to the valley of the Nile on the east. Its length from east to west is about 5000 miles, it's average breadth about 900 miles, its area 2,0OO,OOO square miles. The town of Timbuctoo, about eight miles from the Niger River, is sur rounded by desert, but at distance of a few days journey to the northeast aud north are the oases of Mabrook and Ara wan. Rain falls in torrents in the Sahara at intervals of five, ten and twenty years. In the summer the heat during the day is excessive, but the nights are often cold. In winter the temperature is often below freezing point.

Woman Suffrage.

Having received many inquiries about the results of woman suffrage in Wyom- ing, the editor of the Laramie Sentinel answers them all at once in an interest ing editorial article in his paper. At the outset he states as fact, which is probably not generally known, that the law conferring political rights upon wo- men which was passed in 1869, and has been in operation ever since, was Ca mere freak of the legislators, who thought it would immortalize them and advertise the territory. They builded better than they knew.'"
 Among the results of the measure, &C., cording to the Sentinel, are these:
 A smaller percentage of women than of men stay away from the polls; they are less persistent office-seekers than the men, but when elected to office they have in every case done their duty satis- factorily; they are accorded entire iber- ty of action-frequently wife votes in opposition to her husband, and it has even happened that wives have worked and voted for one ticket when their hus- bands were candidates on the other; but the Sentinel has "never known or heard of an instance of domestic infdelity growing out of difference in political views between husband and wife," on ! election day the polls, which were formerly revised edition of Donny- brook Fair, are now as orderly as the churches; women exercise their politica. rights without sign of demoralization
 and their votes and influence have doubled the power of the better element
