America continent, though you may not
be entirely certain of that by survey

Its foundation was blasted out Of the
rock; the front wall is five feet in thick
ness and the side and rear walls three
feet, the material used being pressed
brick, with brown stone trimmings. Tho
beams. girders and main pillars are iron,
incased in fire proof material. The
doors, window.frames and minor parti-
tions are iron, marble and glass. No
wood is to be found in the structure.
The great vault is 36x42 feet of wrought
iron, steel and Franklinite iron,

States for the present year at SIG, ,000, 900
bushels. The estimate for spring wheat
l4l, 900. 900 bushels; Of winter wheat
375, 900. 900 bushels. This estimate is
based on reports Of the secretaries of the
several State Boards Of Agriculture, but
of course is still an estimate. The returns
may materially change the figures. Ii
there is no material falling off from the
estimate, the wheat crop of this year
will be the largest ever gathered. 1t
comes, too, upon large surplus held
over from last year. The foreign demand
will depend largely upon the price at
which Indian and Russian wheat can be

A correspondent writing from Tehach-

disease, which we would advise all per-
sons who have stock to preserve. 1t is
as follows: Move your cattle as soon as
the disease appears, to high ground.
Take one part potash, one part alum, and
one part borax, powder and mix, and
apply to the foot and mouth. The mouth
is only affected because the cattle lick
the foot. Dry ground is the only remedy
