any OF the usual symptoms of st mach

not in the stomach so much as IN nearly
every other organ; in some cases the heart

From all parts of the fruit sections have

The only crunb of encourag cement to be
picked up by the fruit men SO far is the fact
that predictions almost as bad have been
made in previous years, and when the

exaggerated. The worst feature of this
untimely visitation. however, exists in the
belief on the part OF the leading commission
dealers that the reports from different

THE CAMPHOR PLANT.

One of the principal shrubs which Mr..
Smith is now sending South, and for which
there has recently come to be a great
demand, is the camphor plant. This flour
ishes in the warm regions AMI will not be
affected by a moderate frost.
Some OF the streets Of New orleans have
been planted with the tree, which has very
heaIthful effect upon the people.
M. Smith also expects that camphor
industry will spring up from the plants lie
is now sending out from the Botanical
Gardens.
After the first week in May the botanist
THINKS that all danger from frost will have
passed, and he will then begin the trans
planting of flowers. A cool wave in this
section after May is Unprecedented, but
until he deems 1t wise to shelter the
tender plants.
The weather prophet, however. has
strained his all seeing eye to its utmost in
an endeavor to look into the future and
discover cold wave. His vision, which.
IN sucu matters, usually reaches out for
six days or a week. has discovered
nothing but a slight modification from
30 degrees in the shade.
He is of the opinion that Sir John Frost
has fitted out an expedition to rival
Nansen, and betaken himself for season
of eight months to the polarized regions
