DANvILLE TOBACCO MARKET.

DANNILLE, VA, June 1i.-(Special.)-
The continued scarcity OF receipts of to-
bacco on this market accentuates the
contrast with the usually heavy sales at
this season in previous years. The
tendency OF farmers hcreabouts to mark
ct the crop earlier is very marked. The
sales will probably grow smaller and
smaller until the coming In Of the new
crop, which will change the tide.
The offerings for a week consist OF a
large proportion OF filters of various
grades, some wrappers, and but little
Of the cutter variety. Few bright to-
baccos are coming in.
With the demand generally exceeding
the supply prices continue very firm,
and viii hardly show any falling off
for some time. The weather in this sec
ton for the past ten days has been IA
vorable to the growing crop.

With Slighter Wetting.

At l1:15 yesterday morning the storm.
which has been so long lowering over the
city and State. let loose in all It's fury.
For fully three-quarters OF an hour the
cutters were converted into veritable tor
rents and timid pedestrians compelled to
seek hasty shelter from the furious
downpour. Although there has been a
liberal distribution Of rain during the last
forty eight hours, yesterdays storm
capped the climax Since Monday night
lh inches have fallen, making the sea-
sonal rainfall from July l to November
q 7.5S inches, a big difference from the
small total OF 2.2s inches recorded last
year The storm has distributed its
favors all over the State. being heaviest
in the north. In the Sacramento Valley
while not doing any particular harm, the
fall was n little too plentiful, but the
farmers Of the southern districts are
jubilant.
A clear sky greeted Fresno Yesterday
morning. but at 10 o'clock half an inch
had fallen, while at p. m. IS inch was
registered. According to reports received
Just starting at Winnemucca while at
Los Angeles .i6 of an inch had fallen in

Lesson No. PROPORTION.

Lesson No. 1-Proport1on.
II is taken for granted in these lessons
that the student understands the ele-
mentary rules of arithmetic, including
fractions.
The subject OF proportion as II is gen.
orally set forth in arithmetic Is best ex-
planned by illustrations:
Example a. If yards of cloth cost 50
cents find the cost of u yards.
II yards cost 90 cents yard will
cost G3.7 or cents. and u yards will
cost 12x9, or 81 0s. Now bears the same
relation (ratio) TO II that 63 does to los
These two ratios. when placed together,
are called a proportion:
Z GO :: Y 10S
Z 12: 63 los
Here we have two proportions. The Z
yards bears the same ratio TO its price
that the u yards bears TO its price, and
the yards bears the same relation 10 the
Il yards that the price I'm one instance
bears TO the price in the other.
Example B. II 8 men can 90 piece Of
work in u days, in how many days can .
men do the work?
II men can do the work in u days
man can do the work in 5%l2, or 80, days.
and men can do il in one-siXth OF the
time, or 10 days.
Example C. If 27lz yards of cloth cost
