Wet and Dry Countries.

In the valley of the Rio Pecos, West
Texas, there are districts where not a
single drop of rain has fallen since
April, 1885. The smaller tributaries
of the river have entirely disappeared,
and the drought thus far has cost the
settlers some three thousand head OF
cattle. In the upper half of the Pecos
valley a continuous drought of ten
months is not considered any thing
abnormal; but this year even the
usually redeeming month of March
passed without a drop of rain, and no
relief from the sky, at least, is OK
pected before February, 1887. The
other extreme is probably the southeast
corner of Alabama, where sixty-eight
inches a year is nothing unusual.
South America, however, is country
of much greater extremes. In the low
lands of Venezuela the yearly supply
varies from one hundred and fifty to
one hundred and seventy-five inches,
while on the coast of Peru there are
districts where one light shower in
twenty-five years is considered fair

The Chicago Cut in Storage Rates an At
tempt to Capture New Wheat.
ST. LOUIS, June 26.-The Chicago eleva-
tors have inaugurated cut in the rates Of
storage for wheat of nc, reducing the rate
from &c to &c, to 60 into effect July 1.
This cut, just on the eve Of the movement
of the new crop. made considerable stir in
this city when the announcement OF the cut
was made to-day. The receivers and ship
pers regard it as an attempt on the part Of
Chicago to get the bulge in the new
wheat by giving it good start in
that direction, and are looking to
the local elevators to meet the cut. "This
is the time to strike" said one, land the St.
Louis and Kansas City elevators should
come to the front and meet the cut so that
dealers can know what to do. They should
not wait until they have lost irretrievably
a large part of the CROP in neutral terri
tory. Chicago has less stringent grades,
the railroad rate is nearly as good from our
territory, and the wheat sells higher there.
With this cut the inducements will be
strong for wheat to 60 there. l believe st.
Louis aud Kansas City should meet all and
every kind of competition.

A Plain Hint to Wise Young Men with
Sporting Pr1pensities.
The fishing season is thoroughly in
force at present, and the efficient and ex
perienced liar energies from his lair and
takes advantage OF the occasion.
Man who is born of woman frequently
goes forth in the morning to the seques
tered spot where fish are,supposed to wal,
in anticipation OF death.
He sits there patiently all day amid the
mosquitoes and rattlesH axes and anac-
ondas and poisoned net6es and red ants
that chew holes in him md lizards that
crawl into his boots until he wishes he
was dead; and over him big trees bend,
from the branches Of which gneen worms
fall on him and crawl down his spine,
and then he throws a rock at :.-cow which
is coming toward him, and the rock falls
in bees nest, and the bees@!Ollow him
up and camp on him and dig caves in his
eyes until he stands on his heaCsa nd bowls.
And at night he gathers up the three
inch scrub fish he has caught and rubs
mud i'm his ears to take out the bee stinQs.
and shakes the snakes out ofhis pants, anil
fishes the lizards from under his collar AMI
starts for home.
He swears by Saint Bugo that he will
never go fishing again, and he doesn't
until the next time. And then the sameeold
circus occurs again, and it is followed by
the same stern vow.
Young man, if you must go fishing, use
some judgment. Don't goto the woods or
to the water; go to the fish market.-St.
Louis Whip.

A NEW INDUSTRY.


Establishment Of . Factory for Making
Porpoise Leather and Oil.
The most considerable event which
has taken place at Hatteras for long
time has been the establishment of a
porpoise factory by some Wilmington
capitalists. As regularly organized
industry the business is new to the
country. The fishermen have caught
more or less porpoises every winter,
but have never done more than to fry
out from their blubber small quantity
of oil. The new company, however, has
purchased special machinery and inn
ported skilled wOrkmen from Europe,
and proposes to make leather, oil and
fertilizers. No leather has been placed
on the market thus far. That from
young individuals has a curious ''pile"
like velvet and is very beautiful. 1t
may perhaps be used in upholstering in
place of plush, than which it would be
far more durable. The porpoises APP
pear off the beach nearly every day
and the fishery is prosecuted daily
unless the sea is running too high.
Only the strongest nets would hold
porpoises, and when frightened they
will dart about with inconceivable ra-
pidity and strike against the nets with
great force. They are first impOunded
in a very large net and afterward
brought to the beach by sweep seine
made of the strongest Irvine. 1t is a
strange and exciting scene when sixty
or eighty of these powerful creatures,
each eight or nine feet long, are being
pulled in toward the beach. They
struggle desperately and make con-
tinuaf piping sound like the squealing
of rats. Many become entangled in
the net and are drowned, but the ma
jority have to be killed after they are
drawn out of the water. Although the
fishermen persist in calling them fish
they are, of course, true milk-giving
mammalia. The milk is not unpalat-
able, but very rich and with flavor
like cOcOanut milk.
Although the winter has been very
unfavorable large number of por-
poises have been taken. The season
closed in May. The fishermen stay in
their camp on the beach every day
from dawn until sunset, whether any
fish" appear or not. They are
warned of their approach by spies sta
toned half mile north and south of
the camp. The men say that the fish
cry is mo fun," which means that it is
