According to the census statistics the
production of tobacco in this country is in
creasing. Rough figures indicate that the
crop center has beer shifting somewhat dur
ing the past ten years. Predictions are
made that the northwest will eventually
become a great tobacco growing region.
Tobacco grown there now is wholly for
home consumption and cuts no figure even
in the primary markets of the United
States. Yet the special agents Of the CEN
sus office report that there are large areas
In that region which could be profitably
utilized in the culture of tobacco for export.
But the most remarkable increase during
the last ten years has occurred in Florida,
where the number of pounds produced has
increased from 1000 to almost SOC, 900.
There is apparently no reason why
Florida should not grow as good
tobacco as Cuba. 1t certainly has the
advantage in point of climate.

Flower Song.

The roses shook their crimson bloom,
And murmured mid the soft perfume:
It's sweet to live beneath the sky,
Where golden sunbeams scattered lie,
And happy days glide calmly by.
T1s sweet that hopes unfailing light
lrradiateS the darkest night,
And sweet that hearts still dream and dream
That love forever reigns supreme"
The lilacs dropped their pensive heads,
And breathed above the pansy beds:
'Tis sad to live beneath the sky,
Where mortals ever sob and sigh,
And brightest flowers soon fade and die.
'Tis sad to think that bitter tears
May fill the heart through drifting years,
For love forgets, so soon forgets,
And leaves but dreary, vain regrets"
The lly-bells rang sweet and clear
why sing of love, o, flowers far?"
While daisies raised their starry eyes.
And asked in tones of sweet surprise
why sing of love beneath the skies?"
The lilacs turned their heads and sighed.
While all the roses quick replied.
From east to west, from pole to pole,
Love does the universe control"

Mercenary grasping is carried to the ex~
IRENE lengths of brutally sordid avarice by
three Illinois sisters who are said to have
instigated a suit for divorce ostensibly
brought by woman who was dying of con-
sumption, and without her knowledge or
consent, in order that the other sisters may
get share of her husbands property. In
anticipation of this plumber they are said to
have INDUCED in a sort of ghoulish carnival
over their own cunning. If the law doesn't
disappoint those INSCRIPTIONS conspirators
then the law in Illinois is certainly wofully
weak and inefficient.

1t is not known for certain whether Sec
rotary Blaine has any sinister designs against
the Italian government or not But the
Washington Star suggests that the reckless
way in which he runs up telegraph tolls
would indicate a scheme to bankrupt King
Humbert's treasury. With the sang froid
of a space writer, the secretary recently
piled in on Marquis Imperiari special"
of about $500 words. OF course the mar
quis had to cable it to Rudiui. At the regu-
lar rates of the cable company the treas
urer of the Italian government would have
to go down in his vaults for the sum of

to measuring swords with Jaems G. Blaine.
This is only one message. Since
the New Orleans affair several OF almost
equal length have been transmitted to the
land of the Caesars. Italy is not any too
we'll fixed financially as it is, and Rudini
has been trying to devise some means of re-
lieving the depression in order to make him
self solid with the people and hold his job.
II he continues his controversy with the
United States, running UP big bill of ex-
penses with the telegraph company, he may
find himself in an embarrassing position.
He is not reaping any too much honor from
his tilt with Secretary Blaine as it is, and
if the Italians find that he is carrying on
his useless war of words at 37l5 cents
word, there will be demand for cheaper

Indian Commissioner Morgan's friends
say he has no intention of resigning, and is
In no fear of removal. They admit that
there is friction between him and Secretary
Noble, but it is not on questions of public
policy SO much as it regards the details of
administration. Apparently the secretary
thinks the commissioner spends too much
time away from Washington, while the
commissioner believes his time is better
spent in this way than in staying there to
look after routine matters 20 which his
subordinates can attend. In the interior
de. artment the impression is that there is
no probability of an early change in the
Indian Office, as the President is pretty ell
satisfied with Commissioner Morgan's
record. Some day, however, there may be
an explosion which will either blow up Sec
rotary Noble or Gen. Morgan. Harrison's
Official family is always in a srarl.

Freedom from care is about the only
incidental advantage that has been
universally recognized asa factor OF
longevity. About hereditary predis-
positions there is no doubt, but the
comparative benefits of cold and warm
climates are still controverted, and the
possibility of averting a premature
death by abstemiousness has been al
together denied by some physicians
who claim that a tendency to consump-
tion and kindred disorders can be
counteracted only by a generous diet
Teachers, parsons, pensioned officers
and weIl-to-do farmers have attained
longevity in all parts of the civilized
world, but their health theories differ
amazingly. Baron de Waldeck as
clibed his century of physical vigor to
the love for irish air; a Roman peda-
gogue to the respiratory atmosphere
of young females" gaunt Dutch sail
or to to the use of tobacco, in the form
of guilds rather than of cigars; the hi .
torian Fontenelle to his dread of his
late hours. Having worked himself
into fever in his eighteenth year by
midnight studies, he ever afterward
retired to solitary but comfortable
couch at p. m.,' and divided his jour
neys into short trips rather than deyi-
ate from that rule.

when to Water Horses.

Suppose the horse is just brought to
the stable from work or driving, In
this case only a few swallows OF water
should be given until he gets cool. If
he is then to be fed at once he should
have not more than two or three quarts
of water. But if he is to stand an hour
before feeding he may have a pailfuil OF
water. and it will largely be absorbed or
pass through the small intestines into
the cPcum or large intestine. This is Il
reservoir holding about twice as much
as the stomach. 1t will here do TO
harm. But if this amount of water
were given just before feeding, il would
weaken the digestive power of the
stomach, dilute the gastric juice, ana
be apt to cause indigestion. And if
much water is taken Immediately after
eSting, it is liable to wash the contents
of the stomach into the inJestines. where
digestion of albuminoids cannot take
place properly, and is liable TO cause
fermentation and liberation of gases.
which may produce distension, collie and
Inflammation.
1t will be seen by this that when a
little water is given just before feed
ing and the food is maSticated and
moistened with the saliva, it goes into
the stomach and receives the full power
OF the gastric juice, dissolving out all
the albuminoids, and then passes into
the intestines and undergoes further di-
gestion for carbohydrates. II the
horse is to return to work soon after
eating only few quarts of water should
be allowed.
The above remarks are made upon
general principles. But if the horse is
fed on hay or other coarse food, moist
ened and mixed with grain food, which
must be thoroughly masticated before
being swallowed, causing proper flow
OF saliva, which becomes sufficient
moisture OF the stomach for the proper
action of the gastric juice, there is less
liability to injury by notifications in
watering.-COuntry Gentleman.
