THE INCREASE IN SPECULATION.
&, How the Number Of Brokers Have
| Multiplied in q Few Years.

"Within few years tho number OF
brokers in this city has increased i'm
mensely," said an old-time 'stlect''
operator to Tribune reporter. "Therc
arc without tho least exaggeration
three or four times as many brokers
now as there were ten or twelve years
ago. There are about 1000 broke, q
in the city, aud they must average
$1,000 year zach, or they could not
pay clerk hire, Office rent and other
necessary vxpcnscs. Here you have
about $50, GOO taken from the p: O.
ducing classes TO support these non
p oduce-s, who chiefly net rs middle
mon, for others who want TO gamble.
Tho number Of spcculato,s is also
multiplying. Twenty years ago spccu-
lation outside Of stocks and gold, was
scanty. Now look at the array Of
articles, such rs cotton, wheat, corn,
and other cereal products, lard, po X,
bacon, butter, cheese, oil, iron, steel,
copper, etc, etc, have been added 10

When mans conscience begins to

to kill these pests than to run the risk Of their
getting into the hoTs9y stoInachs.
As proof that diversified farming pays,
says the Rural T'orl1, the experience of Col.
Richard Peters, of9Atlanta, Ga, may be cited.
On one of his fasrhis LIST year he made the fol-
lowing sales ADgora goats, So 600; Essex pigs,
$500; wheat, $500; mphair, $3.50; sales of Jer-
seys $4,000; butfer, 81 900; total, 81 $50. The
expenses were S4,1D0. This estimate does not
include butter milk, poultry, potatoes, mutton
and beef consumed in the family. If the Jer-
seys and goats are excluded handsome profit
still remains Good farming and choice stock
have resulted, in thisease. in large profits.
If curry7comb must be used have the
smoothest one that can be found. and use it but
sparingly. In the hands of some men the curry
comb is barbarous instrument of torture. APP
piled with long, sweeping motion, without
regard to the shape of the body, or the even
ness with which it is held, it will make poor
animal shrink and shiver. The skin is often
seriously hurt by the angles of the comb when
carelessly and heavily handled. A short mo-
ton, back and forth, does the work more effect
lively and humanely than the severe applica-
ton of the comb described. The horse will
learn not to dislike it if he finds he is not hurt.
Fine hay or cut or we'll broken straw makes
good nests for hens. As good, perhaps better,
nests, can be made of shavings of soft wood
from the carpenters bench, or chips from a
turner's lathe. This material can be sprinkled
with diluted carbOlic acid, which will keep
vermin away, all the longer for the reason that,
being porous, the shavings Or chips absorb
and retain the scent of the acid better than
most other materials of which nests are usually
made
