EXCESS OF EXPORTS.

The backbone of the situation is the eX-
cess of merchandise exports more than
S41 900, 900 in February with an increase
of 81, 100000 in miscellaneous products,
100000 in provisions, 81, 1000 in
cotton, and 81, 100000 in breadstufs CON-
pared with last year and SIS, 100, 0C0 in all
products. In two weeks of March, ex-
ports have been sixteen per cent. larger
than last year and imports have gained
81 per cent. although especially swelled
by receipts of India rubber, sugar and
hides.
The outgo of cotton surpasses all expec-
tations, though the price was stronger last
week and the export demand apparently
paid no attention to market fluctuations.
Receipts from plantations continue much
greater than at the corresponding date
from the largest crop heretofore produced,
so that guesses about the future crop are
now the main reliance of spectators.
Wheat also moved IN spite OF all specu
lations. Atlantic exports, flour included,
have been l, 1924 500 bushels against ,253,'
800 last year and from Pacific ports l,37l,-
S26 bushels against 29S, sos last year, max
ing for three weeks from both coasts l0,-
659,l25 bushels against 4,53S,44l last
year.
The price has varied with conflicting re-
ports, but closed / higher for the week.
Wool shows no charge in quotations,
though Eastern markets are extremely
dull, and the indifference of manufacturers
has made transactions only 1862, 800
pounds against 1881, 300 for the cores
bonding week last year, and 5,0SS, 800 for
the corresponding week in 1892.

r. G. Dun & Company's Weekly Re-

Neither peace nor war reports have
changed the onward, current of business.
Orders for NOR more than $25, SOC, 900 gold
from Europe have blocked any drift
towards stringency in rates for money and
treasury receipts of 100000 per day
have kept in check any question about the
currency, while exports of products have
continued at a rate considerably increased
and the demand for products of the great
industries shows steady expansion.
Prompt action Ivy the Senate and House
has removed all fear of embarrassment

without any waste of time, while frankly
assuring everybody that it looks for
peaceful settlement and hopes that its
preparations may prove unnecessary.

 Next cut the notches for the string, as shown in the illustration. You can make horn-tips, if you like, first soft ening the horn in boiling water; but 1t will answer every purpose if you cut the notches neatly in the wood. Don't cut them too deep. Now string your bow, bending it stoutly-any stout cord will do at this point-and scrape the wood with bit of sharp glass until the curve is absolutely even from tip to tip. Try the strength of your weap- on by holding it upright at arms length and cautiously drawing the string to your cheek. If it is too stiff work it down until you can readily control it.

FROM PIG TO PORK.
To Make Hog Raising Success sh, Farmer Must Think UA We'll

The Southern Agriculturist says the farmer that "gets there" is the man who uses brains to help him. He must read progressive papers, and apply theory to practice. This will give him many near cuts" over his fields and among his live stock that he had nevei thought of. As rule, the averaga farmer believes that corn is the onlj necessary for a hog, but thatis a greai mistake. To-day no farmer can ob tain good results in fattening hog. exclusively on corn. He must frsI try to get the pig strong bones. mus cles and digestive organs. The besi food for that purpose is milk mixed with some wheat shorts.
 For the best results after pig. weigh 50 pounds is. one pound of corI meal to three pounds of sour milk If the farmer has not the milk, ths next best feed is something that vii produce the most milk in the animal that is, bran But bran is very pod on fats. He has to add the neeessara fat, and he can obtain that with lin seed or corn. To one bushel Of braI mix four pounds of meal, or to ons bushel of corn meal add three busheH of bran. With such feed and thrift5 pigs he will get them ready for markei Rt the age of eight months, weighing about 250 pounds each.

seasoned, otherwise you would need
 to lay 1t by in dry attic for month
 or two. Work it flat on the back and
 round on the inner side-see cross sec tion in the illustration. This can be
 done With q good jaekknife and pa tience, but it is hard to mark; jack plane and a spokeshaye are a great help. Be careful to make the back on the side that best shows the fiat of the grain; if the grain shows edgewise along the back the bow will not be good for much. Then cut the stick to the exact length you have chosen, and find and make the middle. From this point toward the lower end measure off five inches for the handle and mark it. Use pencil; make no notches or scratches to weaken the fiber. Then, beginning at the marks for the handle, taper the bow evenly down with your knife or spokeshave until the points are about the size of your finger tip. Leave the back fiat, and do all your cutting on the rounded side.

At one end make a loop just big enough to slip easily over the end oE the bow and bind it firmly with waSed linen thread. Slide this loop three or four inches down the upper limb of the bow and tie the other end to the match of the lower limb, using the knot shown in the illustration; the picture makes it much plainer than any amount of explanation in words. Adjust this knot so that when the

matters quite plain and fairly easy for 1 have myself been through it all. You can't possibly do any successful shooting with little fiat bows held crosswise, such as I tried to use at first, nor with short, unfeathered ar rows held on the string between the thumb and finger. You must follow the general method of the old Eng lish arehers, who easily drove their shafts through heavy iron mail, and could split a peeled willow rod almost as far as they could see it. You can at least learn to send a steel-pointed arrow through an inch or so of white pine and to hit the crown of hat nine times out of ten at 30 yards.
 First, as to the length of your bow: When strung it should be about your own height; and for that it must be about three inches longer than your height when slack and straight. The best wood to use, if you make your own bow, is hickory. Ash and elm will answer, but are inferior, having a tend ency to set" Sassafras, mulberry and black locust are also recommend

Toward the close of the day he saw that the food had spread on both sides of the canyon SO as to entirely cover the roads which followed the stream. Kitty's mother would have to take q roundabout road through the country and could not possibly reach home that night.

 1t was hard work getting the bulky thing through the narrow door, but Jack accomplished it. taking one more affeetionate glance at the quiet little sleeper as he quickly turned to other things.
 As he did so there came rush and a roar. The slight raft tipped under his feet and he was thrown over, re ceiving a violent blow on the side of the head against the edge of board In moment he was half stunned, the next plunge into the water recalled his dizzy senses. With desperate grasp he clung to the raft as he was lifted, whirled, buffeted, swiftly car ried on.

 It was two weeks before Jack opened his eyes to a clear view of anything Mrs. Martin was sitting beside him. and he made a strong effort to straighten out in his confused mind the various things suggested by the sight of her face.

If boys to-day are built on the same plan as when I was youngster-and I don't believe they have changed much-there is hardly anything that can be whittled out of wood or ham mered out of iron with which more "fun" can be had than a good bow and Q dozen arrows. Only, if one is really to have fun-whieh, you know, is the boys good word for sport-the bow must be "real" one, strong and springy, with life enough in it to throw a hundred yards or more at an easy angle; and the arrows must be the real thing, too, made to fly straight and hard and stick in." Of course such weapons are not mere toys, and are no more to be ''monkeyed with" than loaded gun. To point an ar row at another boy is simply criminal.

The best bows are of snakewood or yew, but they cost from ten to fifteen dollars. There are also good but expensive bows made of two kinds of wood glued to- gether-lance "backed" with hickory, for instance. But, being boy, you will probably make your own weap- on. If you have little money to spare, save it for arrows, since they are both cheaper to buy and harder to make.
