TOBACCO MARKET. 
Business in the local market is dull, and 
but little improvement is expected until 
June, when trade in seed leaf is likely to 
be more active. In the Miami Valley, O., 
over 1,000 cases were delivered during ihe 
week at five to eight cents. Experiments 
will be made in growing tobacco under 
cover near York, Pa. In Louisville, Ky'., 
market common to good leaf, 1901, has sold 
at 5 to 7%.—Tobacco Leaf.

this country. There is nothing sweeter 
in tone or more musical than the Swiss 
cow bells of their manufacture. When 
taken in sets of three, five or eight, in

of selling them, they are tuned to accord, 
giving almost the musical effect of distant 
chimes in the hills and wooded country.

turkey bells.

mens of American-bred Jerseys and Berk- 
shires! Send for full catalogues to Peter 
C. Kellogg, 107 John St., New York.

the consecutive number assigned to the 
animal. The Dana label is officially used 
by 40 recording associations. They are 
made of suitable size for all kinds of stock. 
Write for free sample and circulars. 
The enormous growth of the business of

sary to establish a complete office at their

under the direct charge of Thomas B. 
Meehan, who will devote his entire ener¬ 
gies to the wholesale branch of the busi¬ 
ness. The innovation will be made July 1,

These worms are doing so much damage 
in parts of our State that 1 again send 
out this note of warning. You must spray 
the trees well with a Paris-green mixture 
of one pound to 100 gallons of water, to 
insure quick results. It is well to add four 
pounds of lime well slaked and thoroughly 
mixed to each 50 gallons of water. Spray 
thoroughly, and usually one application 
will suffice. If not, make another. In any 
case never let the Canker worms destroy 
the leaves of the trees. These worms eat 
so ravenously that it is only a question of 
putting the poison on the leaves to bring 
sure death to them. They are so easily 
killed with the Paris-green spray that there 
is no excuse for not doing it. Where 
fungus diseases are prevalent use the 
Bordeaux Mixture also, with the other. 
This is made by using six pounds of lime 
and four pounds of blue vitriol to 50 gallons 
of water. l. a. Goodman, Sec’y.
