THE INDIANAPOLIS NATIONAL BANK Designated United State* Depository, 'Corner Room Odd-fellow*’ Halh fheo. P. Haufhey. Pras’t. H. Latham Oash*r FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL MONEY AND STOCKS. The New York Market Continue* Weak and Lower Price* Prevail. NkwTobjc, Feb. 14.—Money, I*2 per cent; offered At the close at $ per cent Prime mercantile paper, 4fts per cent. Sterling exchange quiet; GO days, $4.835; $4.865. Governments dull, hut firm. State securities quiet and strong. The stock market was again weak and lower, the decline being led by Western Union. Some of the prominent operators on the ‘‘bull” side throughout the recent advance were large sellers of Western Union and Union Pacific to-day, especially the former, and they made no effort to conceal the fact. It was very positively asserted that the “hears” in Western Union had made a private settlement at about 63, and the opinion has therefore prevailed that the present break was made to enable the “bulls” to buy stocks again at lower prices. The downward course of prices was checked before 2 o’clock, and in the last hour the market rallied a fraction, and in int cases closed strong at the advance. All the icti stocks were lower, however, than they closed yeßtcra y . the opening the highest prices were obtained, and on large transactions Western Union quickly told down to 58$, rallied to 59*, and by noon sold at 58}. There was a sale in the afternoon at 57§, but with these exceptions the price did not go below 58 nor again above 58$. and it closed weak at 58$ —a decline of 1* per cent on total sales of 66,442 shares. During the afternoon. Union Pacific was pressed for sale until it touched 48$. but duringtne general rally itrose to4BJ. anetdecline of $ per cent Lackawanna was active and steady between 951 and 96£ until after midday, when it declined to 955, but rallied in the last hour and closed strong at 96, a decline of $ per cent.,"with transactions aggregating 73,000 shares. Delaware & Hudson was notably weak, selling down from 742 to 72}, and closing If per cent, lower than yesterday, at 735. Jersey Central was dull but strong, and closed ser cent, higher, at 36£. Northwestern Was weak, declining from 93g to 92. from which it rallied to 92$ at the close—a loss of * per cent, on sales of 34,650 shares. St. Paul was traded in to the extent of 26,185 shares, fluctuating between 73 and 72, and closing at 72*. New York Central and Lake Shore were comparatively firm, and closed at the same figures as last evening, 91$ for the former, after selling from 92 down to 91, while Lake Shore advanced early to G3|, yielded to 625, and sold finally at 68$. The total business of the day amounted to 306.573 shares, which is 28,000 shares greater than Friday. Over 45 per cent, of to-day’s trading was in Western Union and Lackawanna. Comparing prices this evening with one week ago, there is a decline of from 1 to 3f per cent, in a majority of the most active stocks; but Lackawanna is an exception, closing $ per cent, higher to-day, and Lake Shore at an equal advance. Transactions, 307,000 shares, to-wit: 73,000 Lackawanna, 17,000 Lake Shore, 35,000 Northwestern, 17,000 New York Central. 46,000 St. Paul, 22,000 Union Pacific, 66,000 Western Union.

(tusiness Recovery from the Set-Back Caused by the Cold Weather. Indianapolis. Feb. 13. . The volume of trade tho three last days % of the ireek closing to-day has boon a decided improvement over that of tho early half of the week. In fact, it is said not for many years, if over before, did the unfavorable elements so completely knock the bottom out of businees as on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday last. But with the return of a milder temperature, there is a very favorable reaction in trade. While there xs no boom, nor likoly to be. there Is a healthy distribution. Collections are easier and indications decidedly favorable. As we have said before, most flunetuations in values since tho coming in of tho new year have been toward higher prices. This means better margins for merchants. Grocers report sugars, toastod coffees and canned goods firm at quotations, and prospects for an improvement in prices of salt fish with the approach of the lenten season. Produce markets were fairly active today. Receipts of eggs more liberal, yet prices showed no decline. The same is true of poultry. The butter market is somewhat glutted again, and prices are easier, unless for a really choice article. The provision market is rather sluggish in a wholesale way, while the jobbing trade is fair for February. Prices firm at quotations. GRAIN. The local market continues much in tho same position as for several day 6 past. For spot Stuff there is a good demand, while little interest is shown in futures. Tho Board of Trade Price Current says of wheat: About the same in price and feeling. Local market quiet.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: In the winter season eggs command price, enough, but unlike most other products just now there is not, nor ever has been, an overstocked market Such being the fact would it not he well to give this industry some consideration, to see if what appears to be an opening for profit is what it seems to be —if it is a fact that eggs can be produced in winteit First of all, to get an abundance of eggs in winter, the right fowls must be procured, not so much any particular variety, but, for instance, it. is as useless to look for eggs in winter from hens several years old, as to have the breeding stock of cattle in the twenties, and expect satisfactory results. For winter layers, depend upon pullets that were old enough to commence laying before the weather got cold, and the prudent poultry raiser sees to it that his chicks are hatched early enough to answer this purpose. An onset among the old hens lato in the fall would certainly be advisable, only keeping enough for brooding, for pullet3 in this respect are not reliable. The age at which hens cease to be profitable to keep, varies with the breed, just in proportion as they are naturally active, the non-setters laying well until four years old, while most others are but poor layers after they are two years old. Next important are the winter quarters. A great deal is claimed for the food fowls should have in winter to lay well; but no matter what the feeding, they will not lay, unless their surroundings encourage it. To lay like they would in spring time, the temperature in which they are kept should resemble spring ns nearly as possible. Artificial heat is not required. In fact, fowls do not do well with it, as they are apt to moult, etc.; but not only must the cold blasts be kept off them, but the quiet stinging cold must also be moderated in their quarters for them to lay. The easiest way to obtain such accommodations is to take ad van tr

tage of the heat of tbe earth, by having a coop on a hillside, or banked up below freezing depth on three sides. .The fourth side should face to the south, and be nearly all glass, so that every portion of tho floor will get the direct sun cast upon it, for light is as necessary as heat; in fact, the rays of the sun through glass will moderate the temperature of a poultry house considerably, when the thermometer is way below zero outside. In the effort to make a bouse for fowls warm, care must be taken not to stop up ali openings and stop ventilation. Next of importance, fowls should have something to do to be kept active, and this can be accomplished by having plenty of dry dust for them to wallow in. Another thing is to feed their grain in this dust, straw or other rubbish, making them scratch, as when in the field, for what they get, which will keep the heat of their bodies up! and keep them in a healthy state. As to feed, see that the fowls have gravel that is not frozen fast. Lime stone pounded up is the best. Give them all the egg-shells, baked, that the kitchen breaks, also bones, burned just enough to pound up. Feed the offal from the table in morning, and if not enough, add to it bran or ground oats, all seasoned with pepper, ginger, onions and the like. Keep by them green food and meat Wheat, rye, buckwheat, oats and barley, with frequent changes from one to the other, should be given. Corn has the least egg-producing qualities of any grain, and should only be fed, if at all, the last thqig in the day, during cold weather. Os all things named, bran contains most that goes to make up eggs, but on account of its debilitating effect on fowls it will not do for the main food. A short rule is t$ feed a little of everything fowls will eat The past year eges have ranged higher in price than ever, and, of course, are highest in winter, and with some attention, as here indicated, and enough fowls to look to, there is no reason why the farmer cannot take advantage of this branch and make it one of his leading incomes.

Some Points on the Management of Bees. W. Z. Hutchinson, in Country Gentleman. There is a vast difference in tho amiability of colonies of even the same varioty of bees, and when a colony i3 found to be very cross, its queen should be destroyed and replaced with one of a gentler strain; by so doing, an apiary will become stocked with bees, with which it will he a pleasure to work. Asa general thing, bees strike for the eyes, and many stings are avoided by wearing a broad-brimmed bat, with the brim turned down. Bees are decidedly averse to making an attack in any place where their movements will be hampered; hence even the hand held in front of the eyes will often protect them from stings. Even after a bee has alighted upon the person, an expert, if his hands are free, will usually pick off the bee and kill it belore it can sting. Quick movements, such as sawing, pounding chopping, hoeing, etc., have a very irritating effect upon bees. Last summer the writer built a honey house in the center of his apiary, and most of the work had to be done in the morning or toward evening, otherwise the motion of tho hammer brought a perfect swarm of angry bees about the workman. Dark-colored clothing is also objectionable to bees. Let a man with black clothing enter an apiary, and he is at onco a target for all the angry bees. Tho writer once wore a straw hat with a black binding around the rim, and it was sometimes really amusing to see the bees vent their spite upon the black binding. Mr. D. A. Jones, of Canada, says that the wearing of smooth clothing assists in avoiding stings, as, if a bee alights upon tho clothing and its feet become entangled, it is certain to sting. For tho same reason he advises bee-keepers to singe the hair from the back of their hands. Many stings are received from the bees crawling up the ankles or wrists. To avoid these, let clothing be tight, fitting at tho wrists, and even the pantaloons tucked inside the boots. If shoes are worn, let the trousers be tucked inside the stockings.

One of the greatest aids in avoiding stings is a good smoker, supplied with proper fuel. Os the many styles that I have tried, none have given the satisfaction that has the Bingham. The best fuel for this smoker is hard, dry maple. To prepare it cut up a green maple log into lengths of about four inches, split the blocks into fine pieces—perhaps one fourth of an inch in diameter—and let them thoroughly season. If it is desirable to havo the fuel extra nice, it can bo baked in the oven. Such fuel gives an abundance of smoke, burns a long time, and yields almost no creosote, which is quite an annoyance where rotten wood is burned. Decayed wood can be used to start the fire, when, after it is well under way, a bundle of little sticks can be placed in the smoker. Most bee-keepers dislike to wear a veil, as it prevents a free circulation of air about the bead, which, in hot weather, amounts to a positive discomfort, and because it obstructs the vision. Beginners usually wear a veil, and it is perhaps best that they should; but, sooner or later, the veil is usually laid aside, except at times when the bees are unusually cross. As usually made, a bee veil is simply a sack or bag of some open material, like mosquito bar or tarlatan, with a hem around the top, in which is run a string for contracting the top so that it will fill the hat crown. A piece in front of the eves is usually of silk fcrussels net, which offers the least obstruction to the vision. Glass and mica have been tried for face pieces, but, if the weather is the least cool, the breath condenses upon the glass or mica, and their transparency is thereby impaired. It is easier to see through black netting than that of some other color.

Care of the Hair. Professor Wilson, of England, is high authority on the hair. He condemns washing it, a:d advises instead thorough brushing. This promotes circulation, removes scurf, and is in all respects better than water. Cutting the hair does not, as commonly thought, promote its growth. Most of the specifics recommended for baldness, not excepting petroleum, are mere stimulants, and are seldom or never permanently successful. Some of them give rise to congestion of the scalp. When a stimulant is desirable, amonia is the best It is safe. For falling out of tho hair. Dr. Wilson pre scribes a lotion composed of water of ammonia, almond oil and chloroform, one part each, diluted with five parts alcohol, or spirits of rosemary, the whole made fragrant with a drachm of oil of lemon. Dab it on the skin, after thorough friction with the hair brush. It may be used sparingly or abundantly, daily or otherwise. For a cooling lotion, one made of two drachms of borax and glycerine to eight ounces of distilled water is effective, allaying dryness, subduing irritability and removing scurf. Both baldness and gray ness depend on defective powers of the scalp skin and are to be treated alike. What is needed is moderate stimulation, without any irritation. The following is good: rub into the bare places daily, or even twice a day, a liniment of camphor, ammonia, chloroform and aconite, equal parts each. The friction should be very gentle. Dr. Cagny calls attention to the indiscriminate use of tincture of arnica for horses. He says that it is often employed in considerable quantities for petty strains and bruises, and is kept in contact with the affected surfaces until they are swollen, heated, and often blistered, thusgreatly aggravating the original trouble. He also cites cases in which erysipelas has been induced in men from an overuse of this irritating remedy. Preserve the Teeth.
