PARIS, Aug. 6—-Rentes, 77f £s*>. TRADE AND COMMERCE. .4 (Fair Business, with Signs of an Early f Improvement. Indianapolis, Aug. 6. In merchandise circles the more common remark is that “trade is fair but we would still like to see more activity all along the line, and expect to before the close of the present month.” Locally there were but few fluctuations in values to-day, and those of a firmer character. In tommenfcing on the condition of trade the New fork Shipping List, of August 2, says: “The outride public has not yet gained sufficient conftience to lead to a general buying movement, tnd the investment of fresh capital, st-ill it shows •hat the process of recuperation is making progress and the belief in a favorable outlook is gradually gaining ground. In other words, the Irawbacksto an improved condition of trade, whether from further failures, disasters to the wops or an epidemic of plague, have all been fiscounted and the favorable features preponderate. While, however; improvement is so earnestly desirod. the opinion is unanimous that so speculative “boom” i8 wanted, and with past experience in this respect still green, the prevailing sentiment is aptly expressod in the language of the ritual, from any such ‘good Lord deliver ns.’ Business men have had enough of inflation and artificial markets for the present, and the hard lessons learned from the fiauidation of the last legacy ought to guard against a repetition of that experience. The financial situation is once more upon a sound and healthy basis, and the question now is, how to get the unemployed capital that has accumulated in the banks into circulation by legitimate methods of trade. The problem will soon work out its own solution if the natural resources of the country are left to themselves and no effort is made to stimulate its recuperative powers by modern speculative methods. Abundant crops afford a substantial; starting point, and renewed confidence ItislHhafiiist eaymyd to assure commercial prosperity. The latest advices respecting the crops continue of the most en*>umging character. In equip localities unfavorable weather duripff the bfirrcul week has ’ Wrought some injury, out, generally speaking, there has been no reason to modify previous estimates.’ GRAIN. “A little offish’’ covers the local market. The Board of Trade Prjcq Current says of wheat: Local markets have jost the firmnese of yester lay and show an inclination tcwweakness. Both rovsr* and sellers are indifferent, and we note

light offerings of all grades. Futures are dull aud have but few friends. The visible supply shows up with the marked increase of 2,315,527 bushels. The golden tide is pouring into the various reservoirs throughout the land, and soon the empty granaries will be filled to bursting with the splendid yield of five hundred million bushels and more. New York at noon was *c off, Baltimore 4o off, and Chicago the same. We quote: No. 1 Mediterranean,.. DO No. 2 Mediterranean 85 No. 2 red I: 82*9 No. 3 red 77 Rejected 65 Unmerchantable 55 Corn—Not quite so firm as yesterday nor iu so good a demand, yet the nominal condition of prices and inquiry may be attributed to the scarcity of all grades. Futures still continue without friends. While the decrease in the visible supply is 331,615 bushels, yet it is not so large as the week previous. New York at noon was fc lower, Baltimore nominal, and Chicago |c off from yesterday.

NEW YORK, Aug. o.—Through a wide demand, and also repeat orders, there is an improvement in the total sales, but the market is far from being active, as buyers are confining their takings for all classes of goods to those required for the retail trade. Economy in Feeding. True economy consists not so much in saving the feeding material as utilizing that which often is wasted. Each particular breed of animals is capable of assisting to appropriate that which is often discarded or overlooked as valueless, and the lack of the proper preparation of the various foods often deprives farmers of the use of valuable material. One of the best foods for horses is corn fodder, but it should be harvested, cured and fed iu a different manner from that usually Eracticed. There are several methods pursued y economical farmers in feeding corn-fodder, and even the stalks, to horses. The first is to collect from the stalks, while they stand in the field, about the time the grain is ripe, the blades only, which are tied in small bundles, and allowed to cure on the standing stalks. Such fodder never becomes dusty, and is regarded as excellent food for horses afflicted with heaves. The race, horses were in times past allowed no other kind of bulky food, owing to its clean condition and nourishing qualities. When the whole stalks, leaves included, are finely cut, crushed, moistened and made palatable with ground grain, which is mixed with the cut food, it makes suitable food without the necessity of feeding bay with it. Oats, when cut in the milky state, may be fed to horses without threshing out the grain, as the straw and grain combined is highly relished, there being more nourishment in the straw when it is, cut with the grain in the milky condition. For the cow there are many kinds of food that may be prepared from that which is wasted. Wheat straw may be cut into short lengths and mixed with other material to advantage. In fact, any kind of bulky material is accepted by the cow when it is seasoned with other food of a concentrated character. The sheep finds plenty of work collecting subsistence from weeds and grasses that are of no value, and the hog is es pecially fond of purslain, plantaine, and some of the rank-growing weeds. Any plant that grows out of its allotted place is a weed, but it may be said that weeds may, at times, be considered valuable crops when they can be profitably utilized. There is not an animal on any farm that will not assist in converting useless matter into salable or servicahle material. The principal point to be observed in feeding all the material on a farm is to property prepare it If this is done the good and the inferior may be made to prove jointly more remunerative than if the best be used exclusively. Even clover and timothy hay, which is considered the most suitable bulky food for stoek, may be still further unproved by proper preparation. Roots, which are absolutely indispensable to thrift, can be increased in value for feeding by preparation, and- there is no crop grown that should have any portion wasted; The annual loss from trampling by the feet of animals is very large, and this is occasioned by not cutting it up finely. It does not pay to utilize inferior material for manure as long as it can be passed through the body of the animal, where it may not only assist in adding nourishment, but also become subject to disintegration by the action of the digestive organs. Economy more than repays th* cost, and adds largely to the profits, not only from the crops, but the stock also.

Delusive Valuations of Crops. New York Examiner. When the people talk about the immense harm dime by insecte or droughts to crops, they sometimes make very wild estimates, which could be true by no possibility under supposable limitations. For instance: A drought cuts a potato crop short, and sends the price up to, perhaps,, $1.50 a bushel. Forthwith a man wha raises fifty bushels where he generally raises, say 500 bushels, puts his loss at 450 bushels, worth $1.56 a bushel, or $675. That could have happened only in case he had grown his usual crop in the dry season and his neighbors’ crops also failed, which is impossible, except hi the unlikely contingency of his land being so well treated in advance of, and during the drought, that he could grow the usual crop Something like it may be possible to men who are very skillful and practice forethought, and so far it is a wise thing to do; but still, to get land in the condition.' to stand a drought when other lands fail, costs considerable, and hence the Droflts of a good crop in a bad season is somewhat reduced, after all, below the estimate. Inaeots hurt the fanners’ crops seriously in some seasons, and statisticians quick at figures sometimes tell farmers how much & sure panacea would be worth: and, of course, it mounts up at-once among the hundred million®. But it is delusive, all the same- An excessive fruit crop is a damage to the growers, and helps nobody but ths transportation companies, which charge the same price for carrying glutted crop that they do when it is searce. Heedless consumers, who never sympathize with the toiling grower, may also rejoice temporarily; but gbits, after all, do them little good. The fact i*. the insects Which prey upon and thin out farm crops are often the farmer’s friends, in a sense. They take part of his crops, but enhance the price of the rest; they incite him to sleepless energy for their destruction, and to a more careful system of farming, so that the man of real skill has a fair crop at all seasons at good prices, while his careless and heedless competitors, who show their energy mainly by fuming at tile “bugs, - ’ have little or none. Setting a Broken Leg. Correspondence New York Tribune. A lamb’s or a sheep’s lower limb is as brittle as a glass rod. I have seen one snap and break as the animal was going over bars let down only at one end. as if it were a clay pipe-stem. But this is nothing to the bandy shepherd, and not much to the sheep, as it does not seem to mind it. All that is to be done is to pick up the lamb or sheep, take it home, get some brown paper and glue, or boiled starch, or plaster of Paris, calcined. Wet the paper and wrap it around the broken limb, first set straight, ns it should bet, Alter a few turns to hold the leg in place, some bands of the paper are dipped in the glue or starch or plaster mixed with water to a thin paste, and wound around the leg from knee orlioek to foot, until a firm stiff bandage is made. A thin splint of wood is then applied to the leg and bound on with some turns of a strip of cloth bandage. This is left on only until the paper hardens, when it is removed. The sheep will soon he able to use the limb. Iu a month or six weeks the paper may be softened with warm water and removed. The broken leg of a calf or cow. eolt or horse may be repaired in the same way, but the animal should he put in slings to prevent injury from the greater weight. Preserve tho Teeth.
