The corn market was cOlorless,
there being no pressure either way.
Liverpool was hc lower and receipts
were under tn estimate-675 ears here.
Country offerings We're small. There
was considerable shipping business
done Wednesday and Thursday, but
little to-day. May ranged from 3S~c
to 33Ac, and closed a shade under yes
terday at 339sc.
The oats market was quiet and de-
pressed somewhat by the weakness of
wheat. There was considerable COM
mission house selling. Local receipts
were 267 cars over expectations. May
ranged from 23as@23hc to 23ssc and
closed A@Ae down, at 23$Q23hc.
The provisions market opened firm,
prices Up, but hog receipts were under
the estimates and prices at the yards
advanced. The hog market turned weak
later, however. and there was con-
siderable profit taking, which turned
the scale. At the end the tone was
steady, helped by some buying of lard
and ribs. May pork sold from $11 80
to Sill 0I1a, and closed 10c under yes
terday at $11 10; May lard from S. 20

Railroad bonds irregular.
Stocks-There seemed to be a nom
plete withdrawal to-day of the general
interest in the stock market which al
so conspicuous a factor in the active
trading of the early days of the week.
The two days reaction in prices served
to discourage the outside demand. and
orders to commission houses fell to
practically nothing. There was a con-
tinual dribble realizing sales all day.
and the bears industriously pecked at
the market here and there, wherever
they detected evidences of realizing
OF of long stock offered for sale. The
most notable price movements were in
the speculative industrials and spec
ialties. Late in the day on the re-
port of a new British reverse at Lady,
smith the bears made a determined
raid on Sugar and Third Avenue, fore
ing them off an extreme 3ss and 6A
respectively. The general list failed
to respond in any marked degree and
support was accorded to the stocks at

to say what quantity of meat should be
cooked for a meal for a family of six
persons. The appetites of fowls vary
as do those of humans and no stated
quantity can be given at each meal. A
safe rule to follow is to watch the hens
when feeding, and if any food is left
fifteen minutes after it is given they
are being over-fed, and the quantity at
future meals should be reduced. On
the other hand, if the food is eaten
clean and the fowls stand around with
an expectant look, a handful or two
should be added to the quantity. This
is the only way of telling just the
quantity to be given at each meal.
One objection to the use of powders
for the destruction of lice on poultry
or for use in the houses is that it is
not easy to get among the feathers and
in the crevices Of the house. A liquid
mixture has been used that is effca-
cious, inexpensive and readily prepared
by any one. Naphthalens fakes are
dissolved in kerosene oil. These fakes
may be obtained at most drug stores,
but do not let the druggist give you
moth balls instead of the flakes because
they "are the same thing" There is a
possible failure in using the moth balls,
for they do not SO readily dissolve and
are often weak from being old. Tween
ty-four ounces of naphthalene fakes
are dissolved in two gallons of kero-
n Shake we'll before using.
To apply, point the inside bottom of
a box or barrel with the mixture, put in
the hen and cover over the box or bar
rel a cloth or anything that will con-
fine the fumes and yet give the fowl
a little fresh air. Keep the fowl or
fowls Several may be treated at the
same time) confined for a half or three
quarters of an hour, then permit them
to run in the open box. One or two
applications will kill the lice. For use
on roosts or in the house simply paint
the places with the mixture. Observe
the same precautions regarding fire
as are taken with kerosene.

the Light Brahma in these respects.
AS a breed the Brahmas are docile,
easy keepers, fair egg producers and
splendid mothers. Although clumsy
to a degree they rarely injure eggs or
little chicks, and are good sitters. The
quality of the meat compares favorably
with that of other breeds. For family
use the Buff Brahma may be relied
upon. They are not so prolific in egg
production as either the Plymouth
Rock or the Leghorn, and may be
classed more as a fancier's breed than
a business" hen. The birds are ex-
ceedingly handsome and if kept pure
will give general satisfaction where but
a few hens are kept. A fair type of the
fowl is shown here.
How Much to Feed Poultry.
The inquiry is frequently made as
to what quantity of any food should be
given at a time to a flock of hens Of a
stated number. 1t is as impossible to
answer this question accurately as it is

NEW YORK, February 9.-Weakness
developed shortly alter the opening in
tin and continued pretty much to the
close. The easier feeling was largely
the result of unfavorable London mar
ket news and a withdrawal of buyers
from the market here. The other

iron warrants very dull at the close;

tackled, forcing the bears to cover.
They made = 1nal futile attempt
against st. Paul. but the market clos
ed generally firm and at rallies in the
stocks which had been attacked NJ
from ! to ~. The tone in the gen-
eral list was ~listless and heavy for the
greater part of the day, and it was
not greatly affected either by the late
attack OF the bears or by the final
rally. Net losses reached a point in
only a few stocks. American Tobacco
was a conspicuous exception to the
general weakness during the day. and
after an early decline rallied strongly
SA' closing at about the best. There
was good demand for Erie first pre-
ferred, which carried it up at one
time rs, most Of the gain being lost.
Much doubt exists as to the probable
effect on the market of further British
reverses in the South African war and
the confusion of mind was clearly re-
Elected in the late movement of the
market. The forecast of the bank
statement had much to do with the
Discrimination to extend speculative
commitments. The recent movement
OF funds from the sub-treasury to the
banks has been reversed and the lat
ter institutions have lost on that ac-
count $685. coo. The shipments of
money to the interior have increased
over last week, and the receipts have
diminished so that the net gain on
that account has been cut down to
little over $1,000, 0O0. Allowing for the
s~ub-treasury absorptions the gain in
cash will therefore be insignificant.
Liquidation of speculative profits in
the stock exchange during the week
may have relieved somewhat the pres
sure on the banks for credits. The
call money market has not shown any
increased pressure for funds, gu the
rates for time money were distinctly
firfner- in tone to-day. Loans on ex-
ceptional collateral were made earlier
IN the week at 31A per cent for short
periods, gut the minimum rate to-day
was advanced to 4 per cent. Sterling
exchange also hardened in sympathy
with the rise in discount rate in Lon
don. The rather violent greak in the
price of cotton on speculative liquida-
ton possibly had some sympathetic
effect in the stock market.
Business in the bond market fell Off
considerably and price changes were
irregular. Total sales par value ST.
sos, 900.
United States bonds were unchanged
in bid quotation.

FINANCE AND TRADE

NEW YORK, February 9.-The Com
merc1al Advertisers London financial
cablegram says:
This was a day of adverse war ru-
in the market here and falling
prices restricted business. Consols
were 1O15s, but closed at 1915 on the
news of Gen. MacDonald's retirement.
1t being apprehended that his rein
forcements had been intercepted.
Paris was disturbed by the report from
Boer sources that Gen. Butler had
again been driven across the Tugela.
The continued talk of mutiny of the
Egyptian forces also caused an I'M
easy feeling and wild hints were cur
rent that the Eighth army division
had been sent to Egypt instead of At
riea. Not n of these rumors were
confirmed in any way.
Americans were steady till after
noon, when London sold freely in the
midst of the general unrest. New
York took Erie first preferred, 1eav-
ing the rest of the list alone. Grand
Trunks were an exception, being
doomed on the surprising dividend.
The bank bought G31 900 in gold

been, but for bills there was only
small application.
