higher. Dry Fish are dun and prices are barely
sustained on account of an easier feeling in the
Western markets. Nothing doing in Mackerel.
Burning Oils have dropped Ac. Onions have adj
vaced to 8 ooas so Eggs have been scarce and
higher.
Freights quiet with little improvement in the
situation.
At New York the offerings of freight during the
the market is yet characterized by an appearance
OF depression; rates continue low, and in instan-
ces room has been offered for the carrying of
grain free, as in the absence of sufficient cargo
the REGULAR steam tines would be compelled to
provide ballast. and this they desire TO avoid.
Several of the London lines have entered into an
agreement whereby shippers patronizing their
steamers will, at stated periods in the future. be
allowed rebate upon all freight money paid, this
action having been taken to crowd out the compe-
ton of tramp" steamers which have of late Sc
riously cut into both freight and rates. To the
River Plate only moderate inquiry prevails for
tonnage; rates unchanged. Brazil trade is dull.
To Cuba, outward freight is offered fairly, but re-
return cargoes are scarce and rates indicate no
improvement Tonnage for the Windward con-
tnues in demand, but suitable vessels are scarce.
Coastwise Lumber freights Equiet, but tonnage is
firmly held. Coal trade is without improvement

Many of our farmers make . mis-.

is thoroughly done. Not few have
the idea that the man who can get IN
the largest crop with given team is
the most fortunate. Yet, by close
observation we may notice that a man
who has in comparatively small crop
very often succeeds in reaping
larger harvest than his fellow farmer,
with larger acreage. His success de-

and being able to do the work more
