Wheat Weak, ivitli Sales Lessened by Obstrncted Eastern Communication. A Moderate Specnlative Easiness in CornOats More Active and Firm Hoj; Products Limited, But Quiet and Easy. MONEY, STOCKS AND BONDS. An Easy Market, with Little Interest Shown In the Dealings, and Few Changes. 'SEW YORK, Juno 1. Money on call -was jeasy, "with no loans, and closing offered at 21c per cent. Prime mercantilo paper, ZftS? percent. V Sterling exchange dull but steady at 4.8714 for sixty-day bills and $4.89 for demand. 1 The total sales of stocks to-day were 93,799 6hare3, including the following: Atchison, 15,906; Missouri Pacific, 20,000; North- , -western, 4,800; Northern Pacific, 4,425; Northern Pacific preferred, 11,210; Oregon Transcontinental, 2,200; Heading. 3,800; Richmond &. West Point, 1,500; St. Paul, 2.S6G; Union Pacific, 10,788; Western Union, There was little interest shown in the i dealings to-day, and only one important movement took place during the day, the fluctuations in the general list being confined to small fractions. - Some selling of St. Paul caused a weak feeling in the early trading, but the Btrength of Oregon Transcontinental, which rose from C5 to 372 on the bidding of ono broker, and the strong tone of tho Pacific stocks, afterward brought about a more confident feeling, and a rally set in which, by the close of the board, had brought prices back again to about the level of opening figures. The Chesapeake & Ohio stocks wero also prominent for the comparative animation which they displayed, and the advances made in each of them. Tho market finally closed dull and firm at close to opening figures. Railroad bondswere dull and tho fluctuations in the few issues traded in were entirely without significance as a rule, though a few bonds show material changes. The sales were only fS8,000. of which Denver & Rio Grande Western certificates contributed $'J3,000. The tone, however, was fairly firm.

The Fps and Downs of the Market, with tho Range In Prices of Leading Articles. CHICAGO, June 1. The market was weak and lower. Trading was fair, and would no doubt have been larger but for the fact that telegraphic communication with the " East was almost wholly cut off, the wires, owing to heavy storms, being down. The z feeling was week from the start, with opening sales of July at 'u)1 lower, and the prices ruled very heavy and steadily declined lc more, then reacted s&c, ruled easy, &nH closed about 14C lower than yesterday. June sold off 2igc, and closed at about lc lower than yesterday. The weakness was attributed to milder weather. Only a jcoderate speculative business was refiorted in 'corn, the market rulD quiet most of tne session with trading contirred largely to room operators within 4C range. The feeling developed was on, the whole a little easier. Oats were fairly active and unsettled. The opening was at Hhc decline. This was followed by a firmer feeling, and the decline was recovered, and the market closed lixm. A comparatively light trade was re-

ported in hog product?, and the feeling was easier. Speculative trading was confined mainly to July and September. Prices for all the leading articles ruled lower during tho early part of the day, but showed more readiness during the middle of the day. The market finally closed quiet and easy. The leading futures were as follows:

Dcdianapolxs, June 1. The volume of trade for the week closing to-day was far below the expectations of the early part of the week, which was wholly due to the unseasonable weather, all. departments feeling it more or less. Dry goods men report it to have been the most quiet week of the present year. Grocers, as well, did much less than in the week preceding, while prices have ruled steady on all articles in the grocery line. The produce markets showed more activity than most other lines of business. The arrivals of strawberries during the week were light, consequently home-grown have been iu demand and sold at good prices. Cherries have been in light supply, and sold all the way from $4 to $7 per stand. New tomatoes have been more plentiful, but brought good prices, ranging from 2.50 to $3.50 per box. Gooseberries sold at $4 per stand most of the time. The supply is only fair. Lemons and oranges are both in large supply, and prices rule easier, but not quotably lower. Now potatoes are in good supply and weak at quotations. The supply of green beans and peas is meager and' E rices rule stiff. Butter, this cool weather, as been selling better. The receipts of eggs aro liberal and prices easier. The poultry market is firmer. Other markets are featureless. GRAIN. A heavy, dtdl market covers the local situation.

F. C. HUNTINGTON & CO., Leading Wholesale and Retail SEED MERCHANTS, 78 & 80 East Market St., Indianapolis. Late Potatoes and the Trench System. Philadelphia Kecord. Experiments made by several enterprising farmers, as well as liberal prizes awarded by. the publishers of some of the agricultural journals, have brought out many valuable facts in regard to the potato crop, and no doubt, as a result therefrom, the yields this season will be much larger, and the system of cultivation greatly changed. .The object with farmers is to grow the largest crops with the least outlay of labor. It is no doubt a mistake to attempt to save labor on crops that depend more upon the labor bestowed than upon the soil, and the experiments made demonstrate that by giving a better preparation to the soil and bestowing as much labor as may be necessary in order to secure tho maximum yields, not only is the profit increased, but the cost of the labor is really lessened in proportion, duo to the greater yield of the crops. Among the innovations made and demonstrated as a success is the trench system of the Rural New Yorker, which is one worthy of trial, as the season for the late potato crop will soon be here. It is very simple, and the farmer can try a few rows by way of experiment, side by side with other rows grown in the ordinary way. Make a trench twelve inches deep and eighteen inches wide. Use the special potatoe fertilizers sold for that purpose. Cut the potatoes to two eyes, and use good seed; pnt a small quantity of the fertilizer on the bottom, cover it with a sprinkling of earth, lay down the seed the usual distance and cover with an inch of soil. After the seed begins to grow scatter the fertilizer in the trenc.h, on the sides of the plants, and between them, and add more soil, so continuing until tho vines grow to the top of the trench, when the surface is given level cultivation. - It is claimed that the vines make new .roots on their way to the surface, and have more room for the development of the tubers; that as the fertilizer is placed in the trench and near the roots the plants are

'more promptly fed and appropriate it sooner, while tho deep rooting also protects against drought and insures moisture. A yield at the rate of over one thousand bushels per aero is said to have been obtained, the amount of fertilizer used being at the rate of eight hundred pounds per acre. It will cost but a small sum for farmers to test this system with a single row, and' demonstrate its advantages for themselves. Desertions from tho Army. To the Editor of tho IndlanapoUs Journal: Referring to your editorial under the above heading in the Weekly of May 22, I desire to state that the principal cause of desertions from the army is not therein stated. I hare been on the Pacific slope twenty-two years most of the time upon the frontier, and have visited almost all the militarv posts in California, Arizona, Colorado aridew Mexico. Living for a long time on the border of Mexieo, I have met many deserters, and I am satisfied that the most fruitful cause of desertion . is hard work. drudgery, menial serv

ice. In 1876, while engaged m in prospectincr in Arizona,my two companions were killed by Indians, and I went to the nearest post and asked for troops to assist in burying the bodies and to pursue the Indians. My request was denied upon tho ground that none could be spared because they were all at work. Some were making adobes and buildings: others were improving and beautifying officers' quarters: some in officers' kitchens as 'dog robbers," and, while making my request to the commandant, two six-foot troopers were trundling baby carriages in sight upon the parade ground. This is but an instance, I have seen scores of equally ridiculous scenes since I would not recommend that a soldier be not required to work at all. There is some work inseparably connected with a soldier's duty; but I believe that it would bo cheaper for the government to coutract all the buildings and employ laborers than to compel enlisted men to do such labor instead of performing their duties as soldiers and receiving instruction as such. 'I did not enlist to work" is more often the excuee for desertion than any other. Let it be known that a recruit enlists to perform the duties of a soldier only, and that any oflicer compelling a soldier to perform any menial service for him will be cashiered, and the army will soon reach a higher standard and tho percentage of desertions will be reduced. It might be best to dismiss a few such officers to start in with. L. P. Carr. Georgetown, N. M., May 27. The Old Question Does Farming Pay? Correspondence Country Gentleman. It seems to me that few comprehend the wide range of essentials which 1aro absolutely necessary for the make-irpof a fullyequipped fanner I mean for the man who proposes to and does reach the topmost round of success. He must be a sort of rade mecum within himself. In the multiplicity of matters brought before him, in order to act advisedly, he is compelled to have some knowledge of chemistry, botany, entomology, plant physiology, civil engineering, machinery, etc., a good knowledge of human nature, and executive and administrative capacity. He must "carry his farm in his head and before his eyes" at all times, and form plans months in advance; and be possessed of energy and system. A man possessing these qualifications, and capable of practically applying them, will be successful as a fanner, or in anx other vocation that he may undertake. ' The reader may think I take somewhat visionsry views of the requisites necessary for a successful farmer, but let any one analyze them carefully and see how few men are successful as such unless they do possess them, and that, too, to a large extent, and how very few "get along" at all unless they have, to some degree, a practical knowledge of nearly all that 1 have recited. Is it at all surprising, then, that no larger number of men succeed as" farmers than in trade about ten in 1001 It only astonishes me that there should be so many. Yet, if we look dispassionately, we must recognize the fact that farming must pay, and pay well in the long run, or so many would not engage in it as. an occupation. The average farmer makes up his accounts if he maks up any at all and credits his farm with the net proceeds of his sales, or. what ready money he gets from it. But should we not add to it the money saved by living on a farm, as compared with tho money saved by not living (with the same comforts) in a city say cost of house-rent, fuel, milk, cream, butter, eggs, vegetables, poultry, fruit, use of horses, etc., for his family, and then let tho grand total be compared with the percentage of return on his capital with that of the man eugaged in legitimate business (not speculative), and from a somewhat extended experience and careful observation I am quite sure that the farmer's t annual balance-sheet, as a general rule, will show the advantage. In these close, competitive times the merchant looks more for his profit in the volume of hisbusiness (bringing much anxiety and great risks from which the farmer is largely exempt) than in the largeness of the per cent, returned on his capital, which is turned many times during the year, and tho farmer must act. accordingly with successive crops. For theso reasons, I incline to think that while the average farmer (like the average business man) should not go to farming for the mere accumulation of money in a snort time, farming does pay, and pays welL Farm Notes. To protect the interior of a rifle barrel from rust use vaseline. Give the gun barrel a good wash with hot water first, then dry and apply the vaseline. - Poultry yards should have some kind of shade provided for the hens. Ducks suffer greatly if exposed to tho heat of the sun the whole day. A piece of muslin or brush arranged in the corner of the yard will auswer the purpose. . To destroy the striped cucumber bugs a reader writes: "Tafcehalf a peck of plaster, one and a half tablespoonfuls of cayenne pepper, and mix tho substances well. Sprinkle a small quantity on each hill and the plants. I have used this remedy for years, and never lose a vine from the bugs..". A subscriber wishes to know how to destroy ants in the garden. It is very difficult to destroy them or drive them away, as the substances that are disagreeable to the ants often injure the plants; but one of the best remedies is to till their holes with strong soapsuds to which a small quantity of kerosene has been added.
