of powerful interests. Several of the prom
tnent banks were not represented; but,

to the governor Of the Bank Of England,
which will be presented to him tomorrow.

Wheat-Has had a good break since our
last report. Longs have been selling out
and found no buyers except on the de-
clines. The heavy Northwestern receipts
Is the primary cause for this weakness.
Today on the decline foreigners took near
ly 1.OO0,0C0 blu of cash wheat at New York
and ST. Louis, causing sharp upturn and
the market closes strong. Argentine adj
vices are bullish and the drought continues
In this country in the winter wheat belt.
Sorts are becoming little anxious and
cover quickly. Buy wheat now and you will
make some money.
Corn and Oats-The drought continues
and farmers are feeding their stock on
corn and oats, which will make big hole
in supplies. Corn has had good break
and with conditions as they are we believe
that both corn and oats are on the bottom
and advise purchases.

Story About Lyman Gage.

The Waterbury American tells this

1893 a customer of Mr.. Cages bank
asked for loan of 100000. Mr..
Gage asked him for what he wanted
the money. The customer replied
that certain street-railway stocks were
greatly depressed and could be bought
cheap, with chance for big profit.
In answer Mr.. Gage said, substan-
TALLY: "All the money that this bank
has is needed for customers who need

solvent customer all that he requires
to tide him over this crisis. 1 will
not loan to any customer money to be
used in speculation, however sure the
profit.

PRODUCING PROLIFIC LAYERS.

Experiments have been made to see
if the number of rows of corn on cob
could not be increased with success.
The same method which was pursued
with corn is applicable to poultry
breeding. For example, one starts
with fowls which lay one hundred and
twenty eggs each in a year. Among
their descendants are some which lay
one hundred and fifty eggs per year,
and these are selected for breeding.
From these some are produced which
lay one hundred and seventy-fve eggs
per year, and from these, perhaps, the
two-hundred-egg-per-year hen is pro-
duced. The problem is not quite as
simple with fowls as with corn, for it
is necessary to breed the males, as we'll
as the females, year after year, from
prolific layers, in order to succeed. If
one looks after the breeding of the
females only. he may introduce on the
male side blood which is lacking in
prolifcacy, and thus check every at.
tempt at progress. 1t becomes neces-
sary, therefore, to breed the males
from hens which are varying in the
desired direction, and which show a
cumulated variability in that direc-
lion. It is just as essential that the
male should be from a hen which laid
one hundred and seventy-fve eggs and
whose mother laid one hundred and
fifty eggs, if the two-hundred-egg
bird is to be produced. Improvers of
laying fowls are too apt to forget this
and introduce males with little regard
to their breeding, and then wonder
why the prolifcacy OF the flock does
not increase, Reliable Poultry Jour
nal.

Naming the FIoMers.

We differ from the Japanese in many
things, even to the naming OF flowers.
If we name a Chrysanthemum in this
country it is Mrs. Lucinda Brown,
Betsy Baker Smith or Miss Robinson.
Everybody is commemorated without
regard to euphony or the fitness of
things. A queenly blossom of splendor-
GUS hue is apt to bear the name of the
insipid, characterless Miss Brown. On
the other hand, the Japanese endeavor
to have the names as pretty and unique
as the flowers are themselves. Any
one will grant that such titles as the
"Fuii snow" dragon blood" "eye
of the sun, morning crown" or
''pearl palace" are vast improvements
over Smith, Jones and Robinson in the
naming of flowers.
