REVIEW OF TRADE.
Dun Secs Unmistakable Evidence Of
Improvement.

NEW YORK, May 24.-R. G. Dun &
Co. IS weekly review of trade says:
"Unmistakable evidence of improve
ment comes in the general increase
of commercial loans, mostly for
Eastern merchants or companies,
though some we'll known houses
in the middle West appear with
considerable rediscounts from the
South. Not for long time have COM
mercial loans been fully half the whole.
The distinct change gives proof that
new business has been larger than
many have supposed. Receipts of
money from the interior exceed ship
ments $500, 900. mostly from the
Middle West. Exports of gold have
no influence and only signify the will
ingness of Russia to pay, a price for
the gold needed"

COMFORT FOR MAN AND BEAST.
The Picture Presented on a Big Canal
noat Tied I'D Over Sundny.

boaf J1ed Up over sunday.
Tied alongside a bulkhead in the Har-
lem river was a big canal boat. In the
stable at one end stood three horses
munching hay out of their manger, says
the New York Sun. The deck over the
horses, forming the roof of their stable,
was foot or two, or maybe more than
that, higher than the surrounding deck,
and it was open all around, so that the
breeze blew through freely. 1t was a
hot day, but the horses We're in the
shade, in place where they could get
the air if they could get 1t anywhere;
then they had plenty to eat. and they
were apparently as comfortable as
horses could be.
Down at the other end of the boat an
other scene presented itself. There an
awning had been stretched over the
deck FROM side to side, aft of the cabin.
1t was a Sunday. Under this awning,
in comfortable rocking-chair, sat the
canal boats captain, reading news
paper. Here, too, sat the captains
wife, reading a book Under the avn
ing, stretching from the cabin door,
they sat as on a veranda in front of a
house on shore, and quite as much at
home. 1t would have been difficult to
find more comfortable spot, and, in
deed, the boat was picture of comfort
for man and beast.

ALL AROUND THE FARM.

In sandy soil deep planting is best
for potatoes.
If the hay is dusty. dampen it for
feeding to horses.
Pull the collars away from the horses
shoulders while they are resting.
Ashes may be considered as a special
fertilizer for potatoes, improving the
yield and quality.
Generally with flower seed, large or
coarse seed should be planted much
deeper than fine seed
The most successful work of the farm
is done according to the season, rather
than by any other set rule.
1t will be an exceptional case when
some soiling crop cannot be used to a
good advantage during the summer.
When the cabbage. tomatoes or sweet
potato plants have grown long and
spindling set them deeper into the
sell; down 10 the first leaf is usually a
good plan.
If the full number of stock is kept
that the pastures will carry during the
best part of the growing season. some
soiling crop must be grown to help
out when the pastures fail
One advantage with all farm prod
ucts and stocks is that if prices fall it
is certain that the lower quality drops
first and most. and usually is most dir
ficult to SELL There is always a sale
for the products of a better quality

burn Al Diseased Plants.

Diseased plants should never be add
ed to the manure heap, as they con-
taminate the whole mass. 1t is possible
to spread plant diseases over the en-
tire farm through the agency of ma
nure, and no farm will get rid of any
disease that attacks plants until all
refuse is burnt. Onion smut, potato
scab and sweet potato rot are spread
when the tops are thrown on the ma
nure. Every tree or plant that is
brought on the farm from other places
becomes a medium for communicating
disease and should be carefully exam
ined on arrival as the nurseryman may
not be aware of the fact that plant
is not healthy. 1t is cheaper to keep
disease away than to combat it after it
becomes established.

Experiments with Po,otoe,.

Experiments conducted on Long Is
land by the New York station for the
purpose of comparing the relative prof
its from using 1000 pounds and 1000
pounds of commercial fertilizer per
acre on potatoes showed the smaller
quantity TO be the more profitable and
that in the single application of 1000
pounds per acre, IS per cent. more
nitrogen, IS per cent. more potash and
nearly five times as much phosphoric
acid were added to the soil. as were
removed in two crops. This indicates
that too heavy applications of improp-
erly mixed fertilizers may result in
serious loss on Long Island and else
where.-Agricultural Epitomist.

Liquid Air in Commerce.

Eliminating purposes An illuminant
can be formed from liquid air by mix
ing it with ordinary AIR, in certain pro-
portions, while it is passing back to its

serve as an explosive agent for various
purposes. As portable liquid, rich in
oxygen, it is suggested that it should
serve many purposes in manufactures.

ABOUT kAFFlR coRN.
Experience Fails to Sustain Many OF
the Claims Made for II.

Experience Fails ia Sustain Many of
the Claims Made for 1t.
Some enthusiasts declare that Kafiir
corn is destined to supersede both wheat
and Indian corn in Kansas. but the
Kansas authorities and the department
of agriculture do not sustain this claim.
kaffir corn, an Egyptian millet. is
sorghum, and rs crop possesses these
advantages: The yield is larger by from
20 TO so per cent. than Indian corn; it
will grow and yield crop-not large
one-on very poor soil; il is injured
much less than Indian corn by drought,
and even when withered by the hot. dry
winds of the prairies. il viii recover I'M
der moisture.
1t forms an excellent food for cattle
and pigs. All the experiments. os which
many have been made by scientific amri-
culturists, show that it is inferior in
fatening power to either wheat or
corn. Nevertheless. as a surer and
larger crop than corn. it promises most
important results for regions like Kan
sas and Nebraska. where scorehinr
winds frequently wither the corn and
destroy the crop.
As food for man, it is nourishing.
wholesome and palatable But the lat
est conclusions of the national depart
ment of agriculture are that its use will
probably be somewhat like that of buck
wheat-it will form an occasional
rather than staple article of diet. In
nourishing power it stands at 81, where
bolted cornmeal stands at 81. wheat
-four at 45 and oatmeal at GO.
Heretofore il has been difficult to
grind this corn fine enough for use as
human food. 1t is said that this diff
Guilty has been overcome lately. If so,
there will soon be an opportunity to
test its food value on an extensive scale.

IMPERIAL PAwNsHoP.
Austria Conducts the PawDhrOking
business for Her Poor.


Austria has an imperial pawn shop.
1t was established in Vienna in 1907.
when there was great distress among
the poor in the southern part of the en-
pire. 1t was designed as way to secure
to the starving some means of immedi-
ate relief. and by putting the rate of in
terest as low as possible, and embody-
ing in the system every advantage that
could be given 10 those who sought to
make loans, it was found to be so eff
fective that it soon gained the imperial
sanction, and it was not long until its
managers were made public officials
under the direction of the minister of
the interior. This is substantially the
status of the institution at this time.
The rates are so low that the business
done on the cheap goods and chattels
of the poor could not possibly make the
establishment self-sustaining; but peo-
pie who have been suddenly reduced
incircumstanceso rwho are temporarily
embarrassed, keep the margins on the
right side and enable the institution to
keep open without the aid of a subsidy.
In the year 1898 a total of SCOOPS ar
ticles were pledged, and of these s4S,-
SOP were redeemed. a remarkable re-
demption as compared with the proper
tions of the average pawnshop. The
unredeemed pledges were sold by pub
lie auction and whenever they brought
more than the face of the pledge the
balance was set TO the account of the
pledger, TO be refunded any time with
