Am EXCITED STOCK MARKET

New York. July 1S.-The stock ex-
change opened in excitement and a
general decline in prices followed. The
break started in London accompanied
by report that large international
banking house was about to fail. The
house referred to is that of Crews
Lichtenstad & Co. whose embarrass-
ment was caused by an injudicious and
unfortunate Speculation Of a junior

did not fail.
Another thing which aided the un-
easiness Of the stock market was the
rumored embarrassment Of certain rail-
way companies. Receiverships are
talked Of for half dozen roads. The
reports are denied in official circles

The London Grocer, June Oath has the
following to say regarding the English
salmon market: Salmon remains in
much the same position as before. sup
plies being quite on an equality with
the demand, which sometimes flags,
and we have heard of sales being re-
ported at a slight discount from the
rates originally quoted, but the full
particulars have not been allowed to
transpire. In late circular Hyde Mo-
dera Co, QimiteD Of London says:
Several cargoes Of salmon have lately
arrived, but distributors having enough
stock for their immediate requirements
are not willing to stock further guam
titles unless at lower values, and, as
the bulk Of the salmon Is firmly held,
holders are not disposed to let go under
the current rates. The market may,
however, be described as slightly easier
within the last few weeks, although
the exceptionally warm weather we
have had during the spring and sum-
mer should tend to improve this line,
as in fact 1t should all classes Of can

New Races OF Tree Fruit.

The great and destructive spread of
fupgoid diseases amongst nearly all our
species and varieties of tree fruits is
attracting more and more attention, as
the business of fruit.culture on a COM
mercial scale assumes larger and larger
development. The mildew and rot of
our grapes, the yellows of peaches, the
blight of pears, and the sporting and
cracking of both pears and apples, are
most serious hindrances to the prosper

Working and Sinking.

Ina neld OF sweet red clover;
"Oh, why this furry and haste2" cried he,

The bee cried over his shoulder,
81 like your hddling, II is sublime
But living here in this changeable cline,
must think Of the days that are colder"
The grasshopper laughed in a mocking why,
As gsyly ho nourished his hddle;
troop of butter flies, merry and gay,
Danced In a ring the livelong day,
While the grasshopper stood IN the middle.
The humble bee too was fond of dance,
And the day was hot for working;
But he never gave them q second glance,
Aud hsstensdaway (if near them by chance)
For he knew the danger of Sinking.
He gathered his stores through the sunny hours,
And felt that his pleasures coming;
lie knew that soon there would be no Howers
He knew that in winter the cold sky lowers;
And he kept up cheerful hummng
The cold winds came and the days grew DARK,
And frozen were flower and berry;
The fiddler and dancers lay stiff and stark.
In lonely graves with never mark;
But the wise little bee made merry.

IT is quite surprising to note the
varied purposes which wire may be
utilized for about a farm. Broken
chains may be united and do good work
by using wire of sufficient length to
be turned through the adjoining links
few times. For split post or gate
head, secure one end of the wire by a
staple, then draw il ii yhtly around with
the pliers a few times aud secure the
end in like manner. For temporary
repairs piece of wire is often the
handy thing about machines and vehi-
cles. 1t is well 10 have an assortment
OF different sizes on hand.

A WRITER in the Stockndn &c Farmer
has the following sound advice about
that common and often badly-treated
disease of the horse called Z" Scratches:
During the winter of 1879 and 1880 L
had occasion to use four horses con-
stantly on the road. They soon had
the scratches. l tried all the usual sim
pie remedies such as dish water, salt
water and copperas water, but without
any effect, as l could not get to keep
them in the stable long enough to do
any good, The scratches soon took the
worst form of grease heel, with bleed
ing sores and ulcers, which in one
case extended clear up the legs and
over the belly of the poor suffering
horse. This one thought surely would
never get well; in the mean time
bought and used many different salves
and lotions, but all in vain. Finally l
got prescription from veterinarian,
but it was no better than any thing else
l had used. l was in despair. To
take the teams off the road l could not
afford, and to use them in the condi-
ton they were was cruel, but at that
juncture l CHANGED at q neighbours to
pick up an old F0rrer's Book as it
was entitled, and saw therein the head
ing as above given. The directions
were: ID ssolve a box or ball of con-
centrated lye or potash in hot water,
making as strong a solution as possible.
Bottle this solution when cool and use
by diluting wine glass full of the So
luton in two gallons of cold soft water,
and battle the affected parts thoroughly
with the dilution. Apply with a rag or
sponge for at least fifteen minutes to
each horse. Do this twice day, morn
ing and evening, and you may use the
horse every day and he will get WELL
l followed the instructions and the re-
suits were really wonderful, and my
horses were soon well. have seen the
legs of horses wiped perfectly dry i'm
mediately after applying the remedy
and within ten minutes the legs would
be in profuse sweat. OF course the
lye is painful when first applied to the
sores and one must be careful not to
get kicked by an animal that may be
high tempered"
