The New Tobacco Year.

Speaking Of the new tobacco year
which opened October lst, the Winston
Tobacco Journal, says:
The old year was not profitable
one for those engaged in the leaf bust
ness. The crop was unusually large
and dlstressln9ly common, and it did
not pay the farmers and offered little
opportunities for money making to the
buyers and the warehousemen. The
general business depression compli-
Gated the situation. However, eau
tious dealings having been the rule,
the year has not been a disastrous one,
and there is cause for congratulations
that if few are better OFT at the wind
up, few also find themselves behind.
The trade will enter upon the new
year in pretty good trim and with fiat
tering prospects. The 1894 crop is
not a full one Qor which we are thank
tul,) but in quality it is the best we
have had in several years There is
a good demand for it, and there will be
life on the markets. Times are bright
enlng up, and ere many months elapse
the country will be all right once more.
Manufactured tobacco sales are daily
increasing, and business in all lines
steadily improving.

A Bad Condition.

We have before called at
tcntion to a great calamity
threatening the people OF the
South. There IS ground for
this fear. In no section of
the country IS there greater
need for Liver Medicines than
in the South. and this has en-
coura9ed unscrupulous per-
sons to take advantage of
peoples misery and offer
them all sorts of stuff as a
curc-all for Liver troubles.
Their crimcis greater because
they must have accomplices
to help them in their ncfari-
Gus work. Their preparations
are sold to the druggists at a
low price. And the big profit
t. the druggist is the road by
which they reach the public.
Druggists Of high honor will
not he a party to such an out
rage. Beware of any dealer

The battle in North Carolina is one
strictly for preservation of home rule
and TO save the State from detriment
at the hands Of the enemy. 1t will
simply be ruinous to the State if the
greedy combination of frazzled Radi-
Gals and depleted Populists shall get
possession. The withing hand of 1865

be given to every interest that it would

as being occasionally visited by tho re-

as having a quiet literary colony of its
own Conspicuous in this little colony
is George Parsons Lathrop, poet, nov

own as poet Her husband is eligible

born in the United States. He is the
son of a missionary sent out to the far
east from this country, and the child
was born while his parents were upon
the Pacific ocean on their way home
ward
Mr.. Lathrop went to New London
some time after he had, with the late
much beloved actor, Harry Edwards,
dramatized Tennyson's elaine . 1t
was understood at the time that Mr..
Lathrop would devote himself to the
writing of the play. His friend, Bron-
son Howard, brother-in-law of that ex-
cellent English comedian, Charles
Wyndham, had been xondrously sue
cessful as a playwright, and perhaps his
success moved Mr.. Lathrop to like en-

home in New London, but has some

step simultaneously, and Mr. Lathrop

BAYoNNE, n. J., July 5.-Human in
genuitv has been exercised in a hun
dred ways to create or invent either q
cure for mosquito bites or some prevent
i've for the incursions of this unwelcome
summer visitor. One scientist has de-
vised a plan to rid himself of mosqui-
toes, but it is of such a nature that its
use could not be of practical benefit in
large MOSQUITO infected areas. Neverthe-
less it is worthy of recording and may
make more pleasant the summer resi-
dences of those who can afford to lease
q country home. "
He discovered that it was from the
ponds on his estate that the mosquito
came. He examined the water and
found upon its surface under the micro
scope that myriads of incipient mosoui-
toes were there They existed in a kind
of larval condition and f1oated upon the
surface. After one year s or seasons ex-
perience of the scourge this scientist de-
vised a plan that would undoubtedly
rid such residences of mosquitoes. He
had the ponds drained until they were
quite dry, and then he applied-in the
springtime-a wash Of diluted creosote
to the bottom and sides The next sea-
son-1ast year-there was not a single
mosquito around his house, thus prov
ing that it is only necessary to arrest
the insect in its embryonic stage to in
sure immunity from it.
But, useful as this idea may be to
those who possess similar homes, it
could be but of little value in the gen.
eral destruction of the mosquito, which,
SO far as New FORK is concerned, is de-
veloped for the most part in the marshes
of Jersey.
1t is a we'll known fact to entomolo-
gists that it is only the female mosquito
which bites, = or, in other words, only
