Treatment for Heaves.

In accordance with the request Of
a reader of the Farmers Review we
quote the advice for treatment Of
heaves from two writer's:
Prof. d. Mcintosh: Feed so as not
to overload the stomach; allow a lit.
tie hay to be eaten first, then give
water and then oats. Never feed more
than twelve to fourteen pounds Of
hay per day and fifteen pounds Of
oats. Boiled haxseed mixed with a
little bran at night will keep the bow.
els regular, besides being very nutri.
tious. Sulphate of iron, four ounces
nitrate of potassium, four ounces; pu1
vomica, two ounces; divided into
twenty-four doses, and one given ev.
cry night in bran mash, is very use
full. After this quantity has been
given, skip two or three weeks and
repeat. One ounce Of Fowler's sslu.
ton of arsenic given every night in
small bran mash, when the animal is
at work in the spring, is very good
and often enables an animal to do a
good days work, which It could not do
except for the arsenic. This can
be continued for a month to six weeks
without any danger to the animal
Then stop for a few weeks or as long
as the animal can do without It, and
when the breathing becomes difficult
resume again and so on have treat.
ed horses in this way and they would
do their work with ease for years.
Jonathan Periam: Treatment with
a view to permanent cure is gener
ally not successful. However the all
ment may be greatly ameliorated by
a strict attention to the diet, which
should be the reverse Of that which
has hitherto been given. Give nutri
tive food Of small bulk and best quail
ity, such as 6nely-cut wild hay mixed
with ground oats and corn, bran and
a small quantity of ground oil-cake
or flaxseed meal, and slightly mois-
tened. In summer give green or sue
culent food instead of hay, and in
winter daily allowances Of sliced
carrots and other roots. Such horses
should never be fed or watered i'm.
mediately before use, and they should
be used only for slow and easy work.

Advices from the South note firm
markets. On the Atlantic Coast
stocks have been put on midsummer
basis, and assortments have been REIN
forced by~drawing supplies from 9TH
er sections. At New Orleans offerings
are light. hence market seems quiet;
sales, however, are large for the sea-
son, being for the week nearly three
times equal the period last year and in
still greater excess over any previous
record past five years. In the inte-
rior-Southwest Louisiana and Texas
the main feature is the growing crop,
which is progressing favorably. The
little remainder of present crop is
going out at full figures

NAVAL STORES.

Thursday, June A.
SPIRITS-Signs of an improving
turpentine market are apparent to
some, and more hopeful views are
expressed the past few days If the
better tone is due to the competition
established by the entrance of new buy
ers it is apparently strong confirma-
ton of the opinions of those claiming
that with a little more competition
than previously existed locally great
market improvement would follow.
The opening at the Board of Trade
was firm at 451Sc sales COZ casks, and
the closing firm at 45s4c, sales $50 casks.
The demand was satisfactory. Com
menting on the market a. large firm
of factors say the demand at the high
er level is for domestic consumption.
1t is matter of common knowledge
that the market rises with less re-
sistance on a domestic than a foreign
demand for the reason that the latter
is usually for large lots and there
fore wanted at rock bottom prices. The
trade are interested to know the prob
able course of the market when a con-
siderable foreign demand develops. If
will be regarded as an element of
strength. To-day's receipts were 1850
casks, and the exports 91S casks.
ROSINS-Tke rosin market opened
firm at the prices below, sales S,49O
barrels, and closed firm and unchanged,
no sales. Throughout the day the de-
mand was satisfactory. All grades APP
pear to be in fairly good request. The
receipts to-day were 1913 barrels, and
the exports 1925 barrels. Prices as

represent some of the big spot and ex-
port houses. and after an early sharp
advance, substantial reactions follow
ed. Then, however, the trade, having
had opportunity to digest the report
buying set in and a gradual strengthen
ing of values ensued. The increase of
81 per cent. in acreage is not regard
ed as by any means an offset to a con-
dition as low as "A at the beginning
of the season, for it must be recalled
that the usual rule is for each success
sive month to show deterioration in
stead of improvement in the crop. AS
a matter of fact there was decrease
of about 40 points in the bureaus final
report of condition comparing with the
June report.
The Savannah morning news., 1903-06-05

New Orleans, June 4.-The spot cot
ton market is very quiet. Quotations
unchanged.
At the opening the ring was crowded
with struggling mass of traders. The
government bureau report was read at
9:15 o'clock. At the opening prices
showed the same upward tendency that
they have exhibited during the last
week. At 9:15 o'clock prices had made
an advance of from to points above
the closing of Tuesday. With the read
ing of the report another advance was
made that carried the late months still
higher although July did not advance
further. In the trading of the morn
ing July advanced 4 points above the
closing of Tuesday, August 9, Septem-
Der 13, October 8, December Z. Realiz-
ing sales caused prices to ease off a
few points, the list at the close showing
gains of u points on June, August s
and September 6, while the other
months closed at Tuesdays figures.

New York, June 4.-Our market
opened with sales of July at 11.21@
11.23c, closed 1124c, and after selling at
11.34@1135c, ruled at 11.27c at p. m.
Heavy selling followed the publication
of the worst bureau report ever issued
in June and the local trade felt the eff
feet of report had been discounted
Whether this be true for the moment,
the report is certainly startling if it be
a correct representation of the begin
, ming of a crop which must be a large
one to supply even the ordinary de-
mands of the spinners. A poor report
had been expected, but no one thought
the average condition would be as low
as given. The local temper has been
bearish for several days on the belief
the report had been discounted and to-
days heavy selling was based on that
idea. 1t remains to be seen how Eu-
rope will act on this report Liverpool
will be closed until Monday. The
close was quiet with the local trade
looking for lower market tomorrow.
They have sold heavily to-day. The
spot market was quiet and unchanged.

best shortly after the opening under
realizing and selling by certain prom
inent Philadelphia interests. Then
came the announcement of the gov
ernment's condition and acreage fig
ures.
The condition was placed at TAI,
while an increase of 81 per cent was
reported in the acreage, making the
present figure 2S,9o7, 900. The trade had
been looking for a condition of around
80 per cent. and Immediately follow
ing the reading of the report the ex-
cltement was intense. The first rush
OF orders sent prices up to 10 points,
out this buying exhausted orders i'm
mediately available and profit taking
by buyers on the early break eased
prices off While leading bear interests
assisted i'll forcing the market down.
The decline was of short duration,
however, for the arrival of out-of-
town buying orders again rallied the
market and July sold up to 11.35 at
the best, that being within one point
OF the record for the season, while
September reached it's previous high
point, selling at 1922, December sold
az 9.54 and January at 9.49, the list at
these prices showing a net gain of Z
to is points.
Then profit-taking set in again, Wall
street bears were heavy sellers and the
Philadelphian interests already men
toned also sold heavily so that prices
while for time holding more or less
steadily were gradually forced lower
and the market was finally quiet and
steady at a net gain of l to 5 points.
At the lowest level OF the morning
prices were net points higher to
points lower.
To-days port receipts were 1852
bales, against 1885 last year, and the
estimated receipts for leading points
tomorrow are moderate. Total sales
futures estimated at $4,000 bales.

DRY GOODS.

New York, June 4.-Dry goods mar
ket conditions are no more favorable
than they have been at any time this
week. Conservatism is the keynote of
buyers, and the steady, firm position of
the seller in regard to concessions and
the necessity of obtaining more for
goods, has not influenced the buyer to
any more liberal purchases. Jobbers
have been doing an indifferent business
throughout the week. and reports from
the country are not encouraging for
liberal buying as long as the effects of
foods and droughts is so much in evil
dence

Spot cotton closed quiet and I'M
changed and featureless. No improve
ment was noted in the demand, and
the receipts We're moderate. Local I'M
sold supplies are too small to interest
the trade much, so that the only bust
