THE New York Tobacco Leaf OF
April 18th, has. the following para
graph about the tobacco market:
There has been general sampling
Of tobacco since the first of the month,
which has induced demand for Tugs
and for Africans of the Boston type,
but it is not expected that the volume
of business will be much enlarged
until the adjudication of the Italian
contract on the 18th instant. After
that matter is disposed of there is rea
sonable assurance that business will
be active and transactions large.
In regard to prices, it is expected
that they will be easier in the West
ern country under probable heavy
May receipts. Should this not be re-
allied, then it is expected that present
ruling prices, or something better,
will be guaranteed for the balance of
the season. 1t is the general opinion
that dark tobacco has not for many
years occupied so strong position as
at this time.

Pleasant View, Tenn.
LOGAN COUNTY, KY

The wheat crop in South Logan is
winter killed to the extent of so per
cent. There was shortage in seeding
of 20 per cent The present prospect
of next harvest is between thirty and
forty per cent. OF an average crop.
What wheat is left on the ground
seems very slow to start on its spring
growth. Many of our best farmers are
sowing more grass and clover with a
view of raising more and a better
class of cattle. The dairy interest is
fast gaining on every other farm prod
uct, but this change should be gradual

In regard to our wheat crop, the
condition is imperiled. The plant has
made but little growth. The damage
can not be estimated. At least half
of the plants that made start in the
fall, have been killed by the hard
winter. We will have fine opportu-
nifty to see the effect OF thin seeding
provided the season should prove IA
vorIble for its maturing.

The Coffee Tree,

Now that beautiful leaved plants
are so justly popular, and in such con.
slant request for drawing-room decora-
ton, it is surprising that the coffee
tree of commerce (Coffea Arabca), is
not made use of. We see it now and
then in nurserymen's greenhouses, but
seldom anywhere else, and yet there
are few evergreen shrubs more orna-
mental, and very few that are better
adapted for the adornment of the sit
ting room. An average temperature
of seventy degrees in summer, and
sixty degrees in winter, will be found
quite sufficient, and If the plant is put
in a warm corner in the room over the
kitchen fire on frosty nights no harm
will come to it. The best soil for
planting is mixture of peat and loan.
The drainage must be thorough. the
supply of water abundant, and the
roots must have plenty of room. The
coffee in young state is we'll worth
growing for the sake of its bright
green, glossy leaves, fragrant jessa-
mine-like white blossoms AMI berries
changing from green to red. It's said
that Megalledin. learned multi of
Alden, became acquainted with it dur
ing one of his African journeys. lie
took back some berries with him to
Yemen and recommended the beverage
to his friends as an excellent method
of keeping awake at prayers. Its use
gradually spread to the Nile, Syria,
Asia Minor and Turkey. Coffee was
drst sold in Constantinople in 1864. 1t
was introduced in Europe by the Dutch
in 1910, but did not reach this country
till 1910. Arab coffee is chiefly grown
in Yemen, where it was first planted
in the neighborhood of Alden and
Mocha. The plantations are usually
made half way up the hills. The ber-
ries are not gathered, but cloths are
spread under the trees for the fruit to
fall on when ripe. The coffee is most
ly consumed in the country, the home
demand being so great. There is not

Making Un!eayened Bread.

There are four cities in America
with unleavened bread bakeries-New
York, New Orleans, Cincinnati and
Chicago-and in order to supply the
demand this year the Chicago bakery
began baking two months before the
beginning OF the Passover. 1t is made
up into what are called matzos. The
matzos look like ordinary bareback, ex-
cept that they are about a foot square.
They are made of flour and water, and
contain no other ingredient. After
the -four has been kneaded into a very
stiff dough a lump of it containing
about fifty pounds is placed on a great
block Of wood and pressed into thick
sheet with great beam which is fast
ened to the block at one end by an iron
link and staple. This sheet is next
placed under all iron roller, from which
it emerges into a long ribbon. 1t
passes under another roller, and an
other when it is thin enough for bak-
ing. It is then stamped and cut into
the unbaked matzos, which are placed
on wooden tray having long handle,
and deposited in an oven. Three min
utes later they are taken out, white
and crisp. From the oven they are
conveyed to the packing-room, where
they are allowed to cool, after which
they are put up in loaves for delivery.
During Passover week people of the
Jewish faith eat no other bread.

whats that?" queried the reporter.
Il mean," continued the stationer,
"that there is fast growinga craze to
use sealing-wax on letters instead of
mucilage. Why, do you know that la
dies are most anxious to revive the
custom. They have lots of time to
spare, and they see flavor of sestheti-
cism in several dainty stamps of red
sealing-wax, wish the words "My love

ticularly when in hurry"
"What is the process of manufac-
ture?"
"Piles of paper, cut into the required
sizes, first catch the eye upon entering
one of these mills. These slips of pa
per are passed through small and by
no means complicated machine, and
they come forth as envelopes, gummed
and ready for use, at the rate of about
100 per minute. These are piled in
stacks by the million, and are shipped
in cases containing from 10000 to
100000 The machine that does the
work is known as the Leader, and
does its work well. BY means of a
simple attachment to this machine
postal envelopes are made. printed and
stamped at the same time"
"What is the cost of manufacture ?"
Ordinary letter envelopes can be
made as low as 30 cents per 1000, and
the number of envelopes manufactured
daily in the United States is approx
mately 100000 per day. These are
consumed principally in this country.
Some are sent to Canada, South Amer
lea, West Indies, Australia and Russia.
AT one time large shipments were sent
to Liverpool, but they have our i'm

How long have envelopes been
manufactured in this country?"

HEROIC FIGHT WITH FLAMES.
stubborn Fire Oh Blocker street in Now
York

A fire completely destroyed Schumacher &
Ettinger's Autograph art establishment at Nos,
80, "a and 36 Blocker street, corner OF Mott
New York city. The large building was entirely
Quilted, and the valuable machinery was pretty
well destroyed. The total loss is about $780,
900, OF which 100000 is on the building and
is believed to be insured. In consequence OF
the secure way in which the building, with its
iron shutters, was locked,the tircmen had much
difficulty in forcing an opening through which
stream could be sent The colony OF Italians
and other inmates Of the tenement houses
adjoining the building on Mott street were
driven from their homes, and were no sooner
out OF the way than two tive-ton water
tanks fell from the roof Of No. 81 with
crash that WIS heard nearly mile away,
carrying with them portions OF the roofand
front and side walls. Several persons were
knocked down by the shock, but no one was
injured. Engne 20 was considerably damaged
by the falling bricks, and the water tower was
entirely wrecked. The side wall fell and soon
after the pOnderouS machinery, which was on
the second and :hird floors, dropped into the
debris with great crash. The building had a
100 feet deep. No. 81 was six stories high and
the side buildings five stories each. Messr5.
