CAsToR BEANS A Mosr PROFITABLE
Cnop.-Owing to the protection af-
70, ded by the tariff to castor beans,
there is a constant and growing
home demand for this crop at pro-
fitable prices. st. Louis is the
chief manufacturing point for cas-
tor oil, and the market price there
now for castor beans is 81 per BUSH
ell. It is crop az easily raised az
corn, and is cultivated in a similar
manner. Seed beans Gun be OBJ
tanned of any of the regular seed
merchants in st. Louis, and but
one bushel is required to plant if
teen to twenty acres.
The demand for castor beans this
season exceeded the supply furnish.
ed by tho last crop. and the pros
pect is for high prices the coming
season, as we hear of contracts now
being made at high fixed prices FOL

EDITOR ST.. TAxMANY FARMER:
Thursday, the 3Oth day Of April.
has been designated by the EXPOSE
ton management as Louisiana
Day. Parish Commissioners have
been requested to notify the citi-
zens of their respective parishes of
the fact. and to appeal to them to
organize visiting parties. and in
duce as many rs possible to attend
on that day. The announcement il
made early, SO as to give all an OPP
portunity to make arrangements to
come, and show their appreciation
Of the fact that the graudest ex-
Libition ever made of tue resources
of our common country, rs well as
OF foreign nations. is now being
held upon Louisiana soil. State
pride and patriotism should cause
Louisianiuns to turn out en- masse
on that day, and thus give their
Endorsement to this grand enter
prise, which has not only added a
wreath Of glory and renown to the
history Of our State. but will fur
nish substantial succor. in her su-
prcme effort to regain her prosper.
ity. power and prestige.
st. Ta,nmany has every incentive
to send her citizens here on tina,
day. as her display, taking her re
sources, facilities, and the number
Of her population into considers
ton, is the finest IN our State ex
hibit and the only requirement
necessary to complete her duty il
for her citizens to come, on the
day, (April 3O.) and add thei
presence to the display that thei
products, labor and talents hav
assisted to create and beautify.

Chronic Ulcers and Catarrll.


Mrs. Christian Zelle, aged sixty-three
years, Of Carondelet, St. Louis, Missouri:
had a chronic ulcer on her leg which had
been running for forty.three years. 10
use her own language, she had tried all
the DOCTORS" but without percePtible BEN
eft. Two Of the most noted OF this city
advised her, as the only alternative from
death, to have the leg amputated below
the knee. She was troubled with an
intolerable itching sensation, which only
gave way to a distracting pain, which
made death her daily wish. She could
not sleep or rest. On March II, this
year, she commenced using DR.. Hart
mans PERUNA, and to day the leg is
entirely healed, and the thankful old lady
says she has slept more during the last
three months than she did in the previous
forty-three years.
Miss Alice Brady, Of East st. Louis,
Illinois, suffered from catarrh ophthalmia
for five years. On April ~ she began
treatment under DR.. Hartman. For
year before she was patient Of two OF
the best known oculists OF this city, but
they signalIy failed to help her. After
one month under DR.. Hartman and his
PERuNA, her eyes have almost entirely
healed, and, according TO her own state
ment, he has done more for her in this
short space Of time than the oculists did
in the previous whole year. PERuNA

THE GREATEST AND GRAND
EST,

The unvarying statement OF every
late visitor to the Worlds EXPOSE
ton, at New Orleans, is that it is
the greatest and grandest EXPOSE
ton ever held. In magnitude it is
simply immense; while in variety
of exhibits and comprehension OF
subjects it has never been rivalled.
The earlier reports. based upon it's
incomplete and unfinished condi-
ton, and Influenced by the execra-
BILE weather which prevailed for
some six weeks after the opening.
did the Exposition great injury.
and will be q source of regret to
many people whom they deferred
from visiting it. and who may not
now have the opportunity. Not
withstanding the difficulties and
disappointmerts which attended the
opening and the first weeks of the
Exposition, and the serious finan-
cial embarrassments which eneued,
the work of completing and per-
fecting in every department has
steadily progressed until now the
Exposition is pronounced complete
in every detail, and exceeding, in
magnitude. scope and interest, any
Exposition ever held.
When it is recalled that the diff
ferent Exposition buildings cover
ninety acres Of space. and that all
of this space is utilized by exhibits,
and those of the richest. rarest and
most perfect Of their kind. our read
ers can form some idea of the at
fractions and interest Of the Worlds
Exposition. It will, probably: be
the only industrial enterprise o'
this kind that the present genera.
ton will have on opportunity Of
visiting. The financial embarrass
nents atten diDg the creation o.
this (now happily relieved By Con
gress.) and the improbability o
any future assistance by Congress
to any similar enterprise, will un
doubtedly discourage any effort il
this age to establish another
Hence the opportunity OF visiting
this ought not 10 be passed.
