THE AMBER CT SANTO DOMINGO.
Found in Considerable Ouantities-Condi
tons Under Which It Occurs.

II is an interesting fact that Santt
Domingo is one Of the few places in the
world where amber occurs in any con.
siderable quantities. As is well known
the bulk Of the supply used in the arts
comes from the neighborhoOd of Konigs-
berg. OH the Baltic seacoast.
There it occurs in the lower oligocene,
and appears to have been deposited orig
inaIly in gIauconitic beds of clancy
nature, which was afterward eroded by
wave action and the amber distributed.
though much of it is taken from beds in
which it was originally entombed.
Amber is simply fossilized rosin, de-
rived apparently from certain conferous
trees The conditions under which it
occurs in Santo Domingo do not appear
to differ substantially from those on the
Baltic seacoast.
1t is found near Santiago City, asso-
ciated with Ignite. sands.ones and con
glomerates. These beds probably belong
to the oligocene formation and are found
containing amber at a number of places
on the north coast. as well as on both
farks of the Monte Cristi range. 1t
also frequently occurs in the streams
flowing through these beds.
The amber is usually in ovate Jumps,
ranging from the size of a pea to a
mans fist, often fattened, dull on the
exterior. being covered with kind of
a brOwnish crust. None of these depos-
its has been studied scientifically, al
though several abOrtive attempts have
been made to operate them for COM
merciaI purposes.-Cassier's Magazine.

There is no time which is put in to
better advantage or which fetches
larger return than that devoted to Sc
lecting the seed corn during the latter
part of September and the first half of
October. The advantage which secur-
ing the seed ears at this time has over
the ordinary method of selecting at
husking time lies in the fact that a
choice of the earliest maturing ears
can be made, a distinction that is i'm
possible when all of the crop is ripe
and ready to husk. For all the north
half Of the corn belt that type of corn
is best which bears it's ears low on the
stalk. This means as a rule that such
corn will mature early, and while the
ears produced may not be quite so
large as those which one has to reach
above his head after they are much
more likely to produce hard corn, which
will keep after it is put in the crib. The
shape and depth of kernel and form
and type of ears are of very trivial i'm
pOrtance as compared with the main
question as to whether the corn itself
is of a variety which will mature q
crop in the latitude in which it is
planted.

ITALY'S FINANCIAL STROKE.

Financial Rehabilitation

An event of first rank in the history of

per cent. rentes to a 34 basis. OF the
total of S1.62O,0 100000, only $4,000 of
the securities were presented for redemp-
ton, instead of conversion.
In January, 1894. Italian rentes were
down to - on the Paris bourse and Pre-
mler Crispi had admitted that Italian
finances were in pretty bad shape. Step
by step, in little more than twelve years,
the work of recuperation has proceeded.
y 20 per cent. tax on the interest cou-
pons forced a considerable conversion of
the D per cents to As. The budget was
cut ruthlessly. A surplus began to APP
pear and the kingdom stopped borrow
ing.
Three years ago Italian currency
reached par of gold. When a few weeks
ago the conversion plan was preached
German holders of Italian rentes began
to sell and the purchases We're made for
Italian account in proportion.
When the conversion went through the
italian rentes We're found TO be held
largely in their own country. This feat
of rehabilitation was accomplished at a
time when European money markets
were under heavy Observation-Disclosures
