Although Italy is celebrated for the fine 
quality of her white wheat, her requirements 
of the cereal are so much in exessi of the 
home production that, according to the official 
statistics just published, the exceas of import 
over export averaged during the decade 
1871 1S80 no less than 239,000 tons. The im¬ 
port was heaviest in 1870, when there was a 
short crop, and Italy had to draw from abroad 
altogether 488,400 tons, of which 29,600 were 
from Austria; in,400 from France; 5,800 from 
Greece; 260,800 from Russia; 130,000 from 
Turkey; 10,300 from Egypt; 5,100 from Tuuis 
and Tripoli; 4,200 from Algeria; 5,700 from 
the United States, and 26,500 from other 
countries. Of flour, on the contrary, Italy 
during the decade exported more than it im 
ported, the total import being ouly 32,592 tons 
and the export 45,725 tons; the foreign flour 
trade of the country is, therefore, altogether 
insignificant. The duty on wheat in Italy is 
14 lire or francs per ton of 1,000 kilogrammes, 
other cereals paying 11..50 lire; but flour pays 
2 77 lire per 100 kilogrammes, equal to about 
50 ceuts of our money, per barrel. Ths total 
amount of duty collected on imported wheat 
during the decade reached 41,700,000 lire. The 
bulk of wheat imported by Italy isdrawn from 
Russia, Roumania and Turkey, and to some 
extent, as is shown above, from the Barbary 
States and this county.American 
corned beef has become a suspicious article of 
import in Germany ever since a Schleswig 
Custom House officer opened a case of it and 
found, instead of sound and edible meat, a 
supply of Socialistic circulars and pamphlets 
that had been sent there from Chicago. The 
consignee was arrested, and corned beef will 
be carefully investigated hereafter. 
The culti ration and shipment of oranges in 
Florida is rapidly growing, the consignments 
from points ou the St. John’s river alone dur¬ 
ing the season just closed a mourning to nearly 
18,0U0 boxes, or about 29,000,000 oranges. 
Should no unforeseen drawback prevent, it is 
the intention of the orange growers to pick 
more next season than this.Dakota is 
said to be Ailing up rapidly with immigrants, 
largely German. The advantages of locating 
there are summed up in fertility of soil, which 
makes a satisfactory pecuniary return almost 
a certainty. The total cost of going there, 
buying a 160 acre section of Government 
laud, breaking it up, cultivating it, and reap¬ 
ing the first crop is estimated at about $050. 
The value of the first crop is fixed at $900, 
and after that the expense will be much small¬ 
er and grow smaller every year, while the re¬ 
turn will constantly iucrease. The disadvan¬ 
tages are deficient wood supply, the bitter 
winds that blow over the exposed prairie land, 
the severe Winters, and the complete isola¬ 
tion duriug that season. Nevertheless, emi 
grants continue going there.The annual 
campaign against the locusts has been in pro¬ 
gress some weeks in the island of Cyprus. 
The rewards offered by the Government last 
year resulted in the collection and destruc¬ 
tion of more than 1,000 tons of eggs.

AFTER FIVE WEEKS 
Of Horror, a Mini is Rescued by tlie 
Universal I'ricmI. 
Mr. Chas. V. Baker, bar-keeper at 313 Main 
street, had such a remarkable experience with 
the St. Jacobs Oil as to attract much atten¬ 
tion. Mr. Baker's case as related by himself 
to a reporter, is very interesting. Mr. Baker 
said: “ Last November I was attacked with 
inflammatory rheumatism, I could not move 
a limb I was perfectly helpless. My suffer¬ 
ings were horrible. I was in bed for five weeks. 
Remedies seemed powerless to do me any 
good. I cannot picture to you my feelings. 
I thought after a while that the disease had 
staked its claim, and intended to stay. But 
l found a friend in the St. Jacobs Oil. When 
it was first applied my legs were locked, as 
it were—very much swollen, and I couldn’t 
move them if my life had depended on it. 
The Oil was applied three or four times the 
first day, and followed up with aboutas many 
applications at night. The next day I could 
move ray legs. This style of treatment was 
continued until I was perfectly cured. The 
cure required the use of about one dozen bot 
ties of the Oil, and St. Jacobs Oil aloneeffect- 
ed it. Nothing else could do me the slightest 
good. I think so much of the curative power 
of this remedy, that I feel safe in making the 
assertion that I cau bring out any man with 
rheumatism, if he will let me treat him with 
it in my own way. I have, since my own 
case, recommended it to fifty or sixty people, 
all of whom, so far as I know, have been re¬ 
lieved by it. It is the greatest rheumatic 
remedy in use.” 
Mr. Thomas Sanford, No. 121 West Fifth 
street, says one of his men used St. Jocobs Oil 
for rheumatism, and wa9 cured. 
If you have an ache or pain, burn, bruise, 
cut or sprain, use St. Jacobs Oil. — Adv.
