Twenty Million Pouads Eaton in the
 United states Each Year.

There are, roughly speaking, 21,000,- 900 pounds of almonds consumed ill the United States each year, some eaten with raisins, some used f the manu- facture Of candy some ground for eseem and flavoring extracts, and aei. 'f an inferior quality, used for Ie.aat..ery and soap. The state of Call tfoln..t produces about 14,000,000 poulGs of almonds in year, or two- thirds of the amount required for do- mestic consumption, and the other al- monds are imported from European countries, from which, until flew years ago, all the almonds were sent The figures of almond importations for the fiscal year 1898 show importations Of about 100000 pounds. Of this amount 4,500,000 came from Spain, 100000 from Italy, chiefly Sicily. and the balance from Greece and Portugal Coeoanuts to the value of about S600,- 900 a year are imported into the Uuit4d States from foreign countries 0r from countries which were under foreign jurisdiction at the time of the fast an- nual treasury report. Before the be- ginning of the Cuban war for inde- pendence the importation of cocoanuts from Cuba into the United States was to the value of about $200,000 year. With the beginning of the war it de- elined, and under the present tariff the duty on cocoannts further reduced the importation from Cuba, though large Increase in the shipments of cocoanuts Is expected this year under American jurisdiction in Cuba and Porto Rico. The competition of American with for eign cocoanuts, the latter from the West Indies and South American states, has been more active than in the case of almonds, for the reason that the chief source of supply of American coeoanuts is Florida, which is in closer proximity to the New York market. The annual report Of Florida eocoanuts amounts to about 7,000,00e pounds, of the value of about S300,00e year, and the conditions as to al. monds and coeeanGts are in this par tieular reversed. California produces just twice as many almonds as are i'm
 ported into the United States, whereas Florida produces just one-half as many coeoanuts as are lmported.-Boston Transcript.

FOUR MILLION FOR YACHT.
Huge Fortunes Sunk In Building Stump.
 tuous Pleasure Craft.


 The new steam yacht Victoria and Albert, which has been built for the queen al Tenby, will be on completion the handsomest and fastest yacht any British sovereign has possessed. It will rank only second to the emperor of Russia's wonderful yacht, the Polar Star, which is said to have cost close upon $ 100000 Nothing more lavish ly elaborate than the fitting and deco ration of the Polar Star could easily be imagined. Money has been drilled into her frame in hundredweights. The decorations of the dining saloon, which will seat 150 guests, cost approximately S100,000. Exquisite paintings by some of the most celebrated artists adorn the saloons and cabins and all the woodwork is elaborately carved. There Is fine library and mushroom aboard and a beautiful white marble fountain, while some of the ornaments are of the rarest. The Standart, the czar's smaller stean-yacht of 4,300 tons, is much more frequently used than the Polar Star. She costs slight ly over S2 ,600, ,000 This is only about half the price of the Polar Star, but the Standart is one of the most sump- tuous yachts af1oat. There is accom- modation aboard for crew of 300, twenty officers and eighty passengers. There are three magnificent suites or apartments devoted to the use of the emperor, empress and dowager eD- press, a fine library, a bi1liard-room and music saloon. The dining saloon is paneled in tulipwood; the door handles, finger plates and the lamp fittings are .of heavily carved solid sll- ~ver. There is fine marble bathroom, with heavy silver fittings, and the walls and doors of the principal cabin are elaborately tnlaid with ivory and mother-of-pearl. So many improve ments and additions have been made to her appointments since she was first completed that she is now worth probably half as much again as she originally cost. The German emperor's famous steam yacht, the Hohenzollern. of nearly 4,000 tons, was. considering her beauty and purpose. a compara- lively inexpensive vessel, costing con- siderably less than $1,000,000. She has very beautiful interior and splen- did accommodation for crew and pas sengers alike, and is considered one of the fastest, smoothest-going yachta a1oat.

- - FIRST POTATOES.
Tomatoes and chincon Trees Were Raised

Tomatoes and Chincon Trees Were Raised
 in Peru.
 Lima Cor. Chicago Record: Peru is the birthplace of the potato, which was first used as an article Of food by the Ineas and exported to Europe by the Spaniards when they took oyer quinine bark and named 1t in honor of the countess Of Chincon, whose husband g. that time was vieeroy. The Indians had used the bark for medicinal pur- poses as long as any one could reniem. Der, but this noble lady was the first European to test It's efficacy. and it proved so excellent cure for the ma- laria which saturates the atmosphere of Lima that she induced the Jesuit fathers to recommend it to the medi- cos of the old world. These wise old chaps sent 1t to Spain and Italy, and It is said that one Of the first doses of quinine that was ever administered in Europe was swallowed by the pope. The unregenerate potato, which is still found in wild stale umong the mouna tains of Peru, is delicate vine, which bears fruit about the size Of a plum and as yellow as an orange. Cultiva- tion has increased it's size and im- proved it's flavor, The scientists say that the tomato also originated in Peri. and was known among the Incas as a love apple, possessing peculiar qualities that influenced the affections. For centuries after it's discovery the same superstition prevailed in Europe. Peru also claims to be the mother Of cotton. but think Egypt will dispute that fact.

THE BICYCLE TRADE.
Combination Cannot Keep Up the Price
 of Wheels.

of Wheels.
 The reduction in the price of bicycles from $150 to less than a third of that amount has weighed heavily upon the minds of the manufacturers who en- tered tbe wheel trust. The eombina- tion was undoubtedly made with the purpose of advancing prices to point that would restore at least bart of the old fabulous profits, but 1t is doubtful if it can be made success. Too many independent manufacturers are in ex- istence who are free to extend their trade by offering every possible induce ment in the way of price and quality, such as individual competition sug- gests. One of these has just issued circular, in which he has the following to say: We have thoroughly or ganized and profitable business, both in firearms and bicycles, and there Is DO necessity for our joining any move ment to attempt to monopolfDe or manipulate the licycle trade, or to as- sist some of the .top-heavy' firms to dispose of their factories at fancy prices and thus avoid probable 'col- lapse We are and shall remain per- feetly independent and free to act ac- eording to our business judgment and our sense of justice and fairness to the agents who have assisted us in building up our present large business. No one ean buy better material or build high
 ade bicycles cheaper than we can,
 
 and we have completed our plans and our new line of bicycles much earlier than usual, so as to make this state ment frankly and squarely to our agents, and we announce our line and prices for the coming season as fol- lows: Medium grade roadster. S25; high-grade roadster, S25; with coaster brake, $40; with cushion frame. $50; ehainless, S60." As these prices are a cut of $15 on each grade, and as the manufacturer is one of high repute in the trade, it is manifest that the trust will not bs able to advance the cost of wheels next season. Besides, the day has passed when the wheelman could be persuaded. that his machine, beautiful and delicate as it is, can be more costly than a small steam engine. Louisville Courier J Journal
