We publish to-day in full the article from
the Louisiana Planter from W ich we took a
short extract on Wednesday, Here we find
the results of some experiments in manuring
described, and it is very instructive to compare
those results with the results obtained from
similar experiments in Barbados. The results
run parallel SO far as they show the impor-
lance of applying heterogeneous and phosphate
manures to the soil, but when we come to
potash the results are as far as possible asSun-
der. In Louisiana it is said to be useless to
apply potash, while in Barbados potash is
net only found to be q necessary constituent
Of artificial cane manures, but the results have
been best where it has been most literally
used. This obvious and striking contrast
shows how dangerous it is to rest satisfied
with experiments made elsewhere, and how
necessary it is to make our own. 1t is probable
that there is a similar deficiency Of potash in
the soils Of Santa Cruz as is found in those of
Barbados (see the notes on this point in the
pamphlet ION the use Of Manmes an the cut-
tipation Of the Sugar Cane" PIP. IL & 12), aud
that the same thing is true Of most of the
sugar growing lands III the smaller West
Indies. The richness of the Louisiana soil in
potash is probably to be explained from the soil,
over a great part of the state at least, having
been brought down by the great river and
therefore including within it a large quantity
of vegetable matter. The soil in such islands as
this is simply the result of the decomposition
of the rocks on which it rests and contains COM
paratively little vegetable matter. The po-
fash contained in it probably depends there
fore more upon the original supply in the
rocks than upon any accumulation of it in the
soil. Besides which we have to remember that
on the cane lands large drafts have been made
on it by the annual renewal of the crop over a
long series of years, with only a very partial

The first annual examination Of Mr.. Paul's

day the 3rd inst, just one year from the
schools opening. The results in some of the
subjects were very satisfactory, in others RAJ
Their poor. 1t must be remembered, however,
that the school is very young, and 1t may rea-
sonably be expected that the experience gain
ed during the first year will be made the
foun lation of better things in the future. In
all, "a pupils were presented g beginners not
presented, and these were divided into a pre-
p~aratory class and four others. The time at
disposal did not allow of all the subjects on
the list being got through. The reading was
very good throughout the school, and al
though the pupils occasionally failed to ex-
PLAN the sense. it was evident hat on the
whole the passages read were understood
Not much had been lone in Danish. Arithme-
tic was good in the lower and middle classes,
but not 80 good in the upper. The boys Of
the highest class answered we'll in history, of
which, however, only a short period had been
gone through and they did themselves credit
in geography. The four little boys of the
Preparatory Glass acquitted themselves re-
markably well. Among the visitors present

the Inspector of Schools, were His Excellency
the Governor and the Rsverends Heje,

In these few articles increase Of more than

and manufactures Of copper nearly $4,000 900.
Next In importance is the gain In manufactures d
iron. which largely I'm machinery, and especially
In engines. The increase in manufactures Of copper
Is also Of satisfactory importance. The gain IN
fruits Is partly due TO the large crop OF apples but
also In great to the cheapness IF sugar and
the increased shipments Of canned preserved
fruits. substantially the whole increase IN DEEDS
was In fax linseed, and most Of the increase In
leather and it's manufactures was In finished upper
leather and soleoathcr.
The surprising exports IN December, far exceeding
those OF other month In the history Of tho
country wond have been smaller than In the sans
month OF 1890 but for the great shipments OF bread
stutfs IN which the increase was S2l 100000. IN
all the other principal items decrease appears

In cattle and provisions owing TO the cause already

THE EXPORTS OF 1891.
SALIENT FEATURES OF AN UNRIVALLED
RECORD.
A MARKED INCREASE IN THE MINOR PRODUCTS
OF THIS COUNTRY.


As foreign commerce in 1891 was more remarkable
than In any previous year, and in the month OF De-
cember altogether more remarkable than in any previous
month, the complete official returns for that month and
the present many points OF interest. The value Of
domestic exports greater that year than in any
previous year, and yet there a decrease in the
value OF provisions cattle and oil, increase OF
S22 100000 in cotton and s91 0OOO 900 in breadstuas
and increase OF 900 200 600 in all minor exports
not included in the above classes.
Tho decrease In cattle in the number shipped.
The decrease in provisions also mainly in quantities
exported IN spite OF large increase In fresh beef for
there was decrease in canned and salt beef in allow
in bacon. hams and salt pork and especially IN lard.
Most OF these losses obviously due to the whole
sale selling and slaughter OF cattle and hogs year
before, In consequence OF the partial failure OF crops
In 1890. But the decrease in exports OF oil was
almost wholly in the price. The cotton exports wer
greatly increased in quantity, amounting TO 1885,
100000 pounds against 2506, 100000 pounds In $780,
but the price much lower that the increase In
value was less than per cent In breadsuffs a very
heavy decrease in quantity and value OF exported
for the whole year. alnd also decrease in
than compensated by the increase on sol
in value of wheat and ST., 100000 in the value Of
-four.
In view OF the contradictory changes in these great
classes Of exports II is gntying to find marked IN.
crease in tho foreign demand for minor products Of
this country The value or principal classes above
mentioned was S717 o27 353 against 1926 650142 IN
1900, and the remaining domestic exports were in
value $3.50 ,512,352, against $21034O46l in $500.
Thus the gain in the minor exports nearly 10 per
cent, and examination OF the different items shows
that it quite widely distributed, many items show
ing increase. while in comparatively few a de-
crease appears. The most important gains for tho
year were the following:
