MARVELOUS RESULTS.
From a letter written, by Rev. J. Gun
derman, of Dimondale, Mich., we are
Iermltted to make th.B extract: "I have
no hesitation In recommending Dr. King's
New Discovery, as the results were al
most marvelous in the case of my wife.
While I was pastor of the Baptist
church at Rives JunotCon she was brought
down with pneumonia succeeding la
grlpp?. Terrible paroxysms of coughing
would last hours with little interruption
and it seemed as if she could not sur
vive them. A friend recommended Dr.
King's New Discovery; it was quick in
its work and highly satistfacta.-y in re

tempt to steal President Dale's yucht
Bonnie Dundee, while their vessel was
lying at Honolulu. They stole the craft
wklliout difficulty and they would doubt
less have got away but for mistaking

result went oa the reot' and stuck flist.

The report of the Pacific Mail Steam
ship company for the fiscal year ending
April 30, 1895, has recently come to hand.
The gross earnings are considerably
larger thatm for the previous year, while
the expendttures were less. The earnings
of the Atlantic line end transpacific line
were less, but there wis a gain from the
Panama line. One steamer was added
to the fleet by purchase. This is the
Aztec, 3508 gross tons, formerly known as
the Canterbury, and built on Che Ciyde
in 1894. This is a really fine steel steam
er, well equipped with the most modern
and powerful machinery. She is the best
freight boat in the whole fleet, and was
purchased at a cost of only $171,289. She
could not be duplicated for any such
money. The subsequent loss of the Col
lma neutralizes the addition to the fleet
through the above purchase.
The Manzanit arrived in port late last
night from her trip to Puget Sound. On

FARM AND GARDEN.
BRITISH POTATOES.
The sole now why the farmers of the
U a tod Klngdjm raise the largest crop of
potatoes is becaasj irhey take care of
the s,an upon wfcV.i Mho potatoes grow;
the Aimeriean farmer raises the smallest
crop cf nit the nal: vns, because he at
tempts U upon soli which tails to fur
nish oi.cesliary plant food. It is alto
gether in the farming.
A GOOD POINT IN SHEEP.
About the most profit secure! from
sheep is by the service they perform in
consumttng piartts ihoft are of no .value.
Some wvds are luxurous to sheep, and
are nipped off as sao.i as they appear
above ground. Many of the poltoious
weeds ere harmless when young, espec
ially to Mops and sheen, and as thi.eo

in figures ceppfsft-jting the fertility sold,
eggs cost the farmer 33.K; wht, ptl W;
muk, ltOS; chee, VAM; und timothy
hay, 395.84. This places the hens ahead
of the cows, and shows that eggs cost
but Tittle compared with, the pr.ee ob
tained Dor tjhem.
CONCENTRATED FOODS. '
Many of the 'WonWentrated foods" sold
on tiie market for horses, cattle, sheep,
swine and pouttry, consist apparently of
a mixture of ground wheat and corto,
with 13 p:r cent of salt, and perhaps
a little of some more concentrated flood,
says a report of the Connecticut experi
mental suaition. It is sold at the rate
of 3100 per ton in targe tots, and 3100
per ton in small quatrotltM. It may be
added that Unseed meal is a too an im
portant ingredient in such foods, as it
Is nearly always beneficial to animals.
PLOWING THEORCIIARD.
It Is not possible, or best if It were, to
plow so cios to trees in sod as to re
move alt the grass around their trunks.
But such clumps ot grass should be dug
out iw.tih a spade and overturned. There
are no roots dose to the stump for this
grass to interfere with, but it takes Just
h sheCiter rrlat line apple tree borer
beetle needs .when dupo sluing Its eggs. It
also obstructs the view of the tree
trunk. Every oroharViiat should woAxi
his trees cCos.-ly during the summer for
signs of the borer, and the bunch of
grass growing around the root of the
tree Is what most often prevents the
first work of the borer from being ob
served. COST OF PJAISING WHEAT.
The consolidated returns from over 4,000
experts and 30,000 farmers to the Ohio
dopanbment of agriculture show that the
average cost of patstng an acre of wheat
In Nhjw England is about 320, In the mid
dle states 318, in the southern states 111,
in the western states 311, in the mountain
states 316, and in the Pacific states 312.
In New England an acre of corn costs
328, in the mlddlie states 321, in tho south
ern States 312, in the western states 311,
in the mounitutm states 313, and! In the
Pad lie states 318. The total average cost
of an acre of wheat is J11.4S, and of corn
$11.71. Tine average report placed the
average value at wheat at 36.16 per acre
and corn 38.21 per acre, which does not,
however, include the straw and fodder.
HORSES FOR EXPORT.
Live Stock Journal.
The export horse trade has developed
rapidly, and since the first of the year
Che foreign, buyers have increased; Eng
lish buyers bake more horse for England
and Scotland. French buyers come in and
buy 100 or 200 horses-tight chunks and
small, cheap horses for cabs and bus
horses, such as the Engnuh buyers take
because they are cheap.
German buyers were a new feature ir
M'.iy for light draft horses, as they raise
no draft horses, buyung the Belgian,
French and English drafts, and have
raised mloatly their German coach horses,
largely absorbed by. the army, and their
small, cheap horses, which France buys
cheaper for oabs than they can raise
(hem In France. French farmers by gov
ernment aid, raise high class coach and
draft horses and the cities have to buy
aheap horses frm Genmany, Russa, or
America, or donkeys from Spain. We re
verse that principle in this country end
raise millions of cheap small horses, but
not enough high doss horses for our own
home trade and none for export. The ex
port trade, it la conceded, is in its in
fancy, and our great surplus of horses
Is being absorbed and the experiment
of Ajmeiioan horse is proving quite sallS'
factory to European countries, and w
look for a wonderful development of bur
export horse trade, and farmers and
horse breeders should prepare to supply
that export trade with a better class of
horses. English buyers buy carefully and
pick up at private sale the best they can
find and pay 310 or 315 more than to
buy so hastily on the market. They
are naturally afraid of the Englishman's
bug bear side bones.
The German expedlMeinit of some BOO
medium draft horses will no doubt lead
to a large export trade in that class. Ail
the European buyers want hlghi class
coach and knee action harness horses,
and good, large military horses for their
great armies, and Kg, heavy draft horses,
if we had them; but these buyens look
in vain for bonus of these types, al
th'ouglh their tempting offers of 3300 to
3500 should inspire our breeders to pro
duce what the export trade wumfts, and
our home city trade will now be in the
market for high class horses and when
business is good the price is no object.
Already the groat hackneys, with knee
action and beauty, command 35C0 to 31,000,

Humus .'s a term applied to certain or
ganic matters in soil. It expresses no
definite product, but apptli rather to
the entire product of organic decomposi
tion, or ratiher, an intermedial stage of
this decomposition. This process of or
ganic decomposition results In the pro
duction of ammonia, which combine
wUi certain acids, and is absorbed. Thus
the humus may be taken as a measure of
the nitrogen in a soil.
