this conclusion as explained by the jour-
nal in question, is not reassuring, as it is
frankly stated that the aggregate sub
stance of the replies received indicated n
yield of only 1850 200 bales, TO which
was added per cent as an allowance for
the general tendency to underestimate,
as indicated by past experience.
The crudity of the whole system of crop
estimating is so evident as to deserve to
be always borne in mind by the public,
SO that these publications may be ae-
cepted for what they really are, namely,
simple estimates, and not oracular pre-
dietinns.
Opinions differ widely among cotton
men as to the extent of the crop, esti-
mates running from 8 900 900 all the way
up to 200 200 bales, although it must
be confessed that the larger estimates
have fewer friends than they had some
weeks back.
In the meantime the uncertainty as to
the size of the crop is affecting the cotton
market unfavOrably, as it causes buyers
to hesitate and pursue a hand to mouth
policy. The latest figures show that
OWING 10 the belief in Il large crop spin
ners stocks have been permitted TO run
very low everywhere in the hope that
they could be replenished at lower prices
4 liberal demand cannot, therefore
be delayed much longer, but it will de-
pend On the future tendency of crop
views as to whether the cotton will be
bought at higher or lower prices Il New

A NEW USE FOR LEMONS.
Showing What Pieces of the Fruit Which are
Usually Thrown Away May be Used For.

Showing What Pieces of the Fruit Which are
Usually Thrown Away May be Used For.
"If you ever use lemons, " remarked
one housewife to lady friend, "and
have portion of one left over, be sure
you do not throw it away - 81 am
never without them in the house, as I al
ways use them for favoring, but of
what use are pieces?''
Just this. The next time you think
you have done witha lemon just dip it in
salt and rub your copper kettle or stew
pan with it, You will be surprised to
find what brilliant surface you will OBJ
tain if you rub the article instantly with
dry, soft cloth. You can polish all
brass work by the same means, every
stain disappearing as if by magic. A
moidy lemon put into dirty saucepan
half full of water and boiled for half an
hour cleanses the utensil amazingly and
removes any odor, such as fish or onions.
Try il and see if am not right.

The Women Did 1t.
pni1ndeinnin Rncnrri

The women of Boston made an unfor-
tunate beginning in the exercise of the
election franchise by waiting until ram
part sectariansm could be made effective
by their votes; but the fact of their keen
interest in the schools is altogether
praiseworthy and encouraging, The
voting was quiet and orderly and the fe-
male electioneerins fervid but not bols-
ferrous, 1t is noticeable that in an cleo
ton turning solely on municipal -consid-
erations, to which the participation of
women gave twist ont of the ordinary
direction sufficiently marked to dissipate
the Democratic majority, there should be
a majority of Is, 600 votes for license.

FORT WORTH. TEX, Dee. 10. 1888.
During the past seven days the annual
holiday trading to be expected at this
time of year has developed on the Fort
Worth market, and though there was
some bad weather during the closing
days of last week, which served to OBJ
struct retail trading to some extent, there
has been an average of almost unprece-
dented sales up to and including to-day
This has not been in articles strictly to be
classed as holiday goods alone, hut has
included all sorts of staple goods, dry
goods, provisions, groceries, produce and
other necessaries. There have been a
great many farmers il, the city the roads
leading hereto having been i'll such condi-
ton as to permit the bringing in of agTi-
cultural products, and the retail trade
derived from this source alone has been
of no small Importance. The weather
conditions have been highly favorable to
the making of such cotton as remains un-
handled. ....- ....f
Wholesalers have done an immense
traffic. The trade in general groceries
has been good in Fort Worth during the
entire season, so the present animation is
not surprising; but the rush upon jobbers
III dry goods, who have, in common with
those of other parts of the state, felt
trifiing dizziness during the fall, is most
remarkable even in market usually so
active as that of Fort Worth 70 i

THE COUNTRY'S GROWTH.
Philadelphia Record.

The total vote cast at the last presidon-
tial election was II $40 ,518, an increase
of 2, 1876 ,O90 over 1880. Assuming that
the vote cast 1888 bore the same relation
to the total population as the vote of 1880
bore 70 the total population in the census
year, it would appear that there has been
a growth of 10 1896, 50S in eight years,
and that count of heads at the present
time would show q population of 50 ,7G7,

THE COTTON CROP .

p The probable extent OF the present cot
ton erep remains one of the most inter-
esting problems agitating the South. The
season is late this year, and many rea-
sons have conspired to throw more than
usual doubt upon; the output. The char
aeter of the crop movement affords no
satisfactory comparison with recent
years, and besides there has been scar
city of offieial estimates as to the proba-
Bile outcome. 60 -i'' i7s''''' u
On Saturday Bradstreetss journal, an
ably conducted New York periodical /,
published an estimate based upon several
thousand replies to inquiries in every sec
ton of the cotton belt, indicating the
probable yield to be 6 800 200 TO $3.50, :
