Raffia is the name of a palm which fur- 
nishes a staple article of commerce called 
raffia fiber. It is used by the natives for 
making cloths called silk lambas and re- 
bannas, which bring fancy prices in EKurope 
and America. While it has been used to 
some extent in America in the manufacture 
of hats, its principal use is for typing vines, 
flowers, asparagus and celery bunches and 
for grafting. It is as soft as silk, and not 
affected by moisture or change in tempera- 
ture so as to risk cutting or wounding the 
most delicate tissues, and it does not break 
or ravel when folded or knotted. These 
qualities bring it into general use. \% Ib.,

Insecticides. 
STECKLER’S TOBACCO DUST. — The 
best and most inexpensive insecticide and 
fertilizer of the day, and one of the most 
effective agents against the cabbage fly 
and worms which are so injurious and de- 
structive to Cabbage and Cauliflower 
plants, and to Cucumbers and Melons. 
Used by the larger cucumber growers with 
satisfactory results. We have had oppor- 
tunity to have a thorough test of our To- 
bacco Dust on chicken lice, and have 
found it to be the best insecticide for hen- 
neries, under setting hens, etc. We have 
had it tested by a number of poultrymen, 
Steckler’s Tobacco Dust is the Best Insecticide.
