PLANTING NOTES. 
The VVvnaad Correspondent of tl»e Madrat 
Mail reports tliat lea is looking exce«<lin};ly 
well, and further extensione appear umler con- 
templation, despite exchange and low price8. It 
should, however, be borne in luiiid, he adds, 
tiiat great uncertainty exists &8 to the future of 
the tea market, and that a potent factor in govein- 
ing the value of such produce ii associated with 
China. 
ToKACCO. — The analysis of a perfect tobacco fer- 
tilizer should be 10 to 12 per cent potash, 8 per cent 
phosphoric acid, and tour j»er cent nitrogen; It is 
quite an impossibi ity to get this analysis outside 
a mineral ferilizer. A great many growers do 
not get satisfaction out of their fertilizers because 
they apply them in the wrong manner and too 
near planting time. — Journal of the Jamaica Agri- 
cultural Society for August. 
Indian and Cevlon Tea i.v North A.merica. 
— The Financial Timcn gives the import as fol- 
lows according to our evening contemporary : — 
6 months 1898 -=0,245,44.3 lb. 
1897=6,580,.336 „ 
Considering the war and the war-tax, the figures 
for the present year are satisfactory ; but we 
trust there may henceforward be rapid im- 
provement. 
A Distinction and a Difference.— An 
Indian contemporary thus .«ummarizes the different 
conditions under which the Oil Industry is carried 
on in America and in Russia : — 
When petroleum is struck in the United States, at 
considerable depths, it has to be drawn np without 
regard to market reqaireuients. It is difif leed throogb 
the sandstone strata, and the Company that sasoends 
pumping to economise its supply may lose that siipply 
altogether. A neighbonring Company may appro- 
priate the oil. The comrcon practice is to drill along 
the boundary first. lu Russia as Knoidedf/e points 
out, the conditions are different; the oil is usually 
found at comparatively f^-allow depths often not more 
than one-fourth of the depth of the American wells. 
The strata in which the oil occurs are so disturbed 
as to practically constitute independent oil reservoirs, 
s> that closely contiguous wells are found to bt 
practically independent of each other, and there is no 
necessity for raising the oil until required.
