Australian salt Bush.

I have been thinking of trying the new
forage plant known as the Australian salt
bush, influenced by the glowing accounts
Of it in several agricultural papers. Is it
adapted TO Northern Florida? Surely it
is not the humbug that Sacaline proved
TO be. Can any of your readers recon-
mend the salt bush from practical ex-
perience of it. J. Nc.
If any of our readers have tested the
Australian salt bush for the purpose of
forage we should be glad to know what
they think of it. We have not seen the
plant growing and all we know of.it is
derived from statements made to the ag-
ricultural press, chiefly in California. 1t
was introduced into California several
years ago from Australia. 1t seems high
ly adapted to what is styled the "aikali''
soils of that state. Whether or not it will
grow on the ordinary worn pine lands of
Florida or Georgia we do not know. 1t is
more than likely that il will.
1t is said to make wonderful growth on
soil suited to it, one plant covering a
space of 16 feet in diameter and 10 inches in
thickness of the most vigorous vegetation.
II is a perennial plant, growing freely
from seed, and yielding two cuttings in a
season. Each cutting produces two to
three tons of cured fodder.
Unlike Sacaline, which enjoyed a brief
notoriety year of two ago, the salt bush
has PROSTATE growth, covering the
ground with a dense shade shortly after
getting into growth and for fallow pur-
poses 1t ought to be good thing. We
would like very much to know how good,
II good al ALL it is for southern use. If bet
ter than beggarweed or wonderful peas
tor improving worn soil we should like to
know It, Any plant that will be the means
or inducing farmers to supply more humus
10 their impoverished soil will be gladly
welcomed to place on what is already a
worthy list of valuable plants for that
purpose We have many good things al
ready and it is a pity many farmers fail
10 avail themselves of what is good enough
now II 1t would only be used at the proper

This shows that there is outstanding
3,l96, 900 900 or go per cent, of our entire
railroad bonded debt, now bearing rates
of interest over per cent. This indicates
the large field covered by bonds which
still remain subject TO the early relatively
high rates Of interest, and which may be
brought under this process of scaling in
terest charges. The bearing Of the process
upon stockholders Is twofold; In the first
place, II viii leave larger portion Of the
net earnings available for the payment OF
dividends; and, next, It tends 10 Increase
the price Of the stocks, Just In proportion
as their earnings or the prospects OF earn
ings are thus improved We have thus
reached point In the development of rail-
road finances which the stakeholder may
expect TO begin to realize his share in this
great branch OF investment.
The prospects of the general business
OF the country are steadily Improving
The tariff Is not viewed with the dissat-
i7faction In the commercial community
that Is expressed In some other circles
The Senate Is showing more desire 10
reach an early conclusion upon Il; and
when the bill is enacted the last import
ant obstacle to trade will be removed and
business will revive In spite of all theo-
retic differences about rates Of duty
The export trade remains active, the
shipments for March having exceeded
those for the same month OF any year In
the history Of the country. Contracts
have been made for shipping large
amounts of produce so soon as canal nav
igation opens; so that the activity of this
branch of trade Is likely to be continued.
The light stocks of wheat In Europe and
the expected failure of the French and
Russian crops are factors In favor of full
prices for wheat; which would benefit this
country. especially should the weather
conduce TO some recovery of our wheat
crop prospects. Taken as a whole, the
aspects of the present outlook appear,
70 my view, very favorable TO a steady
Improvement IN the market for securities,
and we regard the prospects OF buyers as
being more promising than those Of sell
ers.

eend YOU a sample of oats which is
about half blasted and turned white, While
tbe other half will apparently make good
frnit. Sometimes the upper and some
times the lower part of the head is at-
fected -.
h1e seems to be due to a deficiency of
come sort of fertilizing material in the
soil. They grow in an old WORKOUT Held
Of about twenty-five acres, on which we
PLANTED in drills last spring, unknown
meas fortified with 100 pounds per acre
each of kainit and acid phosphate; the
meas grew well and were turned under
for fertilizer with double plows last Au-
o,ust The ground lay thus until last
Tovember. when it was again stirred with
Dixie plows. The oats were then soweo
and narrowed in, being finished with the
roller. The oats were from the first,
verv thrifty, and bid fair now to be a
very heavy crop. But there are many
heads like the sample sent herewith,
which are not filed out, and / should be
pleased If you could advise how to avoid
such results in future. c. 2.
Monticello, Fla.
The blast in your oats is not. as you
infer. from any deficiency of the food ele-
Ynents in the soil, but arises from the de-
fciency in the seed. In your field of
grain for every plant that is in the condi-
ton Of the one enclosed the seed that
produced it is to blame, The seed was de-
fective and could not produce a perfect
plant. And it merely exemplifies that dis
position to reversion that all cultured
plants possess more or less. 1t is very
rare that a field of oats is free from these
blasted heads. If, perchance, a crop
should be badly infested with seeds OF
poor vitality it would be well to change
the seed another year and stop propagat-
ing from the old strain of seed entirely.
With oats, as with corn and other grain,
there are stalks affected with inherited
DARKNESS. Some few seeds from the
stalk may be able to produce plant, yet
not be able to produce perfect seeds.

and ill-regulated governm nts. II does
not seem too much to hope that this
az aicVement will hencefortA tend to estab-
ltsh better relations between the great
powers and to diminish that paralyzing
apprehension Of impending war which. for
years past, has returned with every spring.
The mitigation of that political distrust
may easily have most important effects in
the restoration of financial confidence. 1t
is calculated to abate the reservations
maintained among the large Euro
pean bankers and thereby i'm
part an important stimulus to
forms of enterprise which have
long been field in suspension. In this
way, the Greco-Turkish imbrogllo may,
at no very distant date, prove to be the
indirect cause of a great revival Of indus
trial and commercial confidence.
IL is probable that these foreshadowngs
from current events is at the bottom of
the recovery of steadiness on the Euro
pean bourses, The events of the war are
now haN ing little effect on those markets.
.pparently because the conclusion has been
reached that the powers have the whole
matter in control, and that, when they
choose to intervene, the final settl, ment
will be made in the interest of a more sat
isfactory basis OF the future peace of Eu-
rope. In any event. that is about the con-
clusion Wall street has reached; and IL Is
therefore disposed to concentrate Its atten-
ton upon influences nearer home and dis
miss the Turks and Greeks as factors OF
but second or third-rate importance In de-
termining the course of investments.
There are plenty of home tendencies just
now TO occupy the hopeful attention of the
stock exchange. The steady drift OF in
vestments to a lower rate of interest IL a
matter very directly affecting the future
market prices of stocks and bonds. The re-
cent arrangements Of the Lake Shore and
New York Central companies for convert
ing each 1000O0.O00 of their mortgages
into bonds bearing 81 per cent, Is a strik-
ing evidence OF this decline In the rate of
return upon long investments; and there
are indications that much more of the
same kind of conversions is likely TO be
forthcoming so soon as financial affairs
become more settled here and among for
eign holders of our securities. The amount
Of the bonded debt of our railroads bear
ing rates of interest over 4 per cent was
in 1895 as follows:

Catarrh And M aIaria.
I I

People who are or have been affect
ed by catarrh are most subject TO
chronic malaria. The explanation is
this: Malaria is a germ disease
Germs find their way into the blood
through the mucous membranes. If
the mucous membranes are healthy
the germs cannot enter the blood
This is why some people do not get
malaria. But if the membranes are
affected by catarrh, even slightly, the
malaria germs find easy access into
the blood.
Pe-runa is the remedy. 1t not
only destroys malaria germs, but SO
restores the mucous membranes to
health, that no more germs can find
entrance Peru. ma is the most relia-
bic remedy for chronic malaria. 1t
cures by eradicatiug TIE germs from
the system.

ENGLAND NEEDS our GRAIN.
Large Amounts OF Wheat and Corn
Win BE Imported.

The condition Of the Liverpool
breadstuH market is summarized by
United States Consul Boyle
The imports into Liverpool from
this country, he says, probably will
be on liberal scale for some time,
the estimate being $4,000 to 90, 600
quarters weekly for some months.
The demand for maize is large, and
the imports into Liverpool the past
year surpassed all previous records.
The United States contributed more
than two-thtrds Of the whole. The
coming years demand upon the Unit
ed States is estimated at so, 600 to
90, 900 quarters weekly.
The Liverpool trade, the Consul
writes, is often much disappointed by
the unreliable and uncertain character
OF the inspection at certain American
ports, and also by heavy shortages,
amounting at times to s or 7 per cent
in consignments of grain.
