VINES.

In recording the directions in which
various twining plants coil about a
support, most writer's use the express
sions with the SUM-" or "against the
SUM-" Thus the bean and morning
glory Irvine in a direction opposite
to the apparent course of the sun, or
against the sun" and the hop in an
opposite direction, or "with the SUM-"
These comparisons with the apparent
motions of the sun have lead many
people that the sun in some way de-
termines the direction of the coiling.
This is not the case, however. The
comparisons are used for convenience
merely. We might say as well with
the hands Of a WATCH" etc. There
are several ways of proving that the
sun is not the primary cause of the
direction of the coiliDg of plants.
One of the best camprehended is
the fact that south of the equator,
twining plants coil in the same direc-
ton as north Of the equator, although
their direction, as compared with the
sun, is reversed.

Hopkinsville Tobacco Market.

The first sale of the season came
off on the Sd inst, meeting the high
est anticipations of all parties inter-
ested in the weed. The prevailing
drouth shortened receipts, and as a
consequence offerings were light
The good tobaccos offered were very
much mixed in colors and kinds, but
nevertheless they brought highly
satisfactory prices. The low grades
as indicated by figures in the reports
sAFere mostly primings. A full board
of buyers attended, both home and
foreign, among whom we noticed
Messrs Koehler, Cropp, Barnaman,
O'Brien, Elliott, Clark, Jarrett, Low
~, Flack, Thompson, Jesup, Wiley,
Ware and others, all eager to pro-
cure few samples, as types of the
new crop to be forwarded to their
principals. The planters were on
hand in full force, anxiously watch
ing the outlook and seemed delight
ed with prices. AT no time has the
market opened under more favora-
BILE circumstances, and since the crop
is far better than we have had for
number of years in the Hopkinsville
district, wlook for strong mar
ket and heavy receipts during the
season.
