THE DAIRY DEPARTMENT
has fine building just completed and
furnished with the latest improved
appliances for making butter and
cheese. These include Babcock's g
milk tester, Boyd's starter and cream
vat, a hanG separator to test the
milk OF each cow, q De Laval separator,
Curtis combination cream vat, double,
for cheese or butter, etc. The whole
outfit cost So, 900. 1t is hoped that
young men from every portion of the
state may be prepared to run our
factories in the most profitable aud
successful manner and that a new
impulse may tie given to this much
neglected industry. The results of
like efforts in Wisconsin and Canada
Is millions OF dollars in the pockets OF
the farmers every year. The products
must be uniform aud good through
out the state before we can command
the best prices.
In connection with this is a dairy
barn which cost $1,000 and twenty
five mich cows will be furnished.
Careful experiments will be made in
the feed and care of these RI rroduca

BEES AND BUGS.
There is also a small building for
the culture of bees and study OF
beneficial and injurious insects Of
which large collections are being
made and their habits studied.
Several parasites have been found
and dis tributed over the state that
are destroying other insects and
worms that have been preying upon
our trees and plants. The question
whether and how bees may be Kept
with profit is OF Importance to the
state and will probably be answered
during the year.
Large additions are being made to
the geological, geological and ana

REVIEW OF THE MARKEr.

Henry Clovis Weekly Financial Re-
view, issued today, says: The ap-
proach Of the Easter holidays has tended
TO restrict operations during the week
both here and in London. So also has the un-
certainty respecting Richmond Terminal af-
fairs. As soon as these hindrances are out Of
the way we look for an active and improving
market, for both natural and speculative forces
are arranging themselves toward just such q
course. The market has been subjected to
fair test OF its strength during
the last few weeks of reaction, the
:, bears n having , had ,,, free fling at
most forsaken it; and yet it has through
out showed force Of resistance which demons
trGtes that it has a solid bottom. This strength
is the more remarkable considering the very
large amount Of securities that has been
steadily flowing in upon US from Europe,
amounting to probably considerably over
s1oO. 600 900 in value, within. the last twelve
months, and also considering the disappoint-
ment OF the common expectation that our large
crops would bring US correspondinSly large
imports of gold. The forces that have been
employed to break the market have manifestly
exhausted their vitality, and affairs have
reached position in which a recovery in
prices seems to be naturally in order.
We are now through with the usual transfers
of cash for effecting the April settlements. and
the money market mas Settleu into condition
OF ease that Is not likely to be disturbed until
next August Also, there are reasons for sup
posing that the case may continue well into or
through the fall months; for at all the finan-
cial centers Of the Countrywide accumulation
Of money in the banks is unusually large.
while the coinage of silver keeps up a con-
stantly increasing imitation of the currency,
and the lowness Of prices reduces the require
ments for money. We regard the present sit
uation as favorable to the buying Of good
active stocks.

DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.
THE SALE OF LIQUOR.

THE SALE OF LIQUOR.
Referring to Senate bill 2345, Regulating the
sale OF distilled and fermented liquors in the
District Of Columbia" the Commissioners say
they recommend the bill be amended by strik-
in line 25 In their judgment they say there
should be no limitation as TO the persons who
may make complaint of violations Of The liquor
license laws. To restrict it ss proposed by the
clause which the Commissioners recommend be
stricken out, would materially impair the eff
cheney of the bill.
AGAINST TEE BOTANIC HOSPITAL.
The Commissioners recommended adverse
action upon Senate bill 2s05, ITO establish a
botanic hospital and home and free
school in the District Of Columbia" The
District is already supplied with FIVE general
hospitals and they do not think it
advisable they say that public revenue should
be called upon for the establishment and sup
port Of another. This view is concurred in by
the superintendent Of charities, to whom they
submitted the bill for his opinion.
THEY OBJECT TO NAsH's HALL.
The residents in the vicinity of Nash's
Hall on o street between 7th and 9th
streets northwest, have combined in q petit
ton to the Commissioners praying that
the nuisance which exists there be abated al
once. The petition states that the hall is &C.
cupied nearly every night by colored people,
and the shouting and screaming disturbs the
peace of the whole neighborhood.
The Commissioners have orderded the re.
moval Of old cottonwood trees on the east and
north sides OF square $50.
