TRADE REVIEW. The Condition of Business Throughout the Country as Indicated by R. G. Dun A Co.’s Weekly Review—A General Improvement Noticeable. Stimulated by a Few Days of Good Weather-Business Failures. Etc. New York, May 38.—R. G. Dun & Co.’s weekly review of trade, published this morning, says: In two ways there has been quite general improvement during the past week. Better weather throughout most of the country has stimulated retail trade, and the large distribution of goods has made jobbing trade more active. Monetary anxieties have curiously abated, and in many widely-separated points large loans solicited here a week or two ago to provide for extreme emergencies ini different cities have not been wanted, and threatening failures at various points have passed without causing much disturbance. Yet the actual conditions do not seem to have changed materially. Gold is still going out, and $2,000,000 more was shipped yesterday. The treasury reserve is again reduced below the $100,030,000 limit. The large demand for rediscounts and advances by western and southern banks, though considerably abated, has been greater than the eastern banks could wholly meet There jis no dehnite improvement in financial affairs abroad, and the prospects of a continued outgo of gold for some time to come has not altered. Speculative markets show comparatively little activity. Stocks hav© fallen off to some extent from the rapid recovery of last week, the average being about $1 per share lower than a week ago. Wheat and corn are both at just about the same price as a week ago. although western receipts of wheat in four days have been 80.128 bushels, and Atlantic exports 1,036,507 bushels, and corn receipts have been very large, with insignificant exports. Mess pork is 25 cents higher, but other hog products a shade lower, and while coffee advanced half a cent, oil declined a cent. A natural decline is seen in dairy products and potatoes. Cotton is also an eighth lower, although the receipts have been smaller and the exports larger than for the same week last year, but the enormous stocks in sight are not diminishing more than is usual at this season. Boston reports improvement with better weather Th retail and better jobbing in dry goods, the collections are short, and steady market for staple cottons. the decline having been checked, and woolens rather quiet, though more demand from clothiers is seen. Other trade has improved. The outlook for pig iron is ^better at Pittsburgh, and some finished products are in better demand, but prices

very low. At Cincinnati stringency lessens and retail trade improves with the weather. At Cleveland rolled products are in large demand, but prices weak, collections poor and money close. Indianapolis report money tight. At Detroit prosjiectSu are less bright than last year, but collections have somewhat improved. Chicago reports improvement with better weather, which favors the farmers, but collections are still slow and bank accommodations sparing. At Milwaukee manufacturers are busy and the jobbing trade greater than a year ago, but money is close. At Minneapolis the financial flurry has abated, jobbing trade and collections are fair, with a good lumber trade, but small sales of flour. St. Paul reports seeding mostly completed. fair jobbing trade, but slow collections. St. Louis notes steady and satisfactory jobbing and fair collections. Bankers are extremely conservative and much money has gone out to other western cities. At St. Joseph the^rocery trade is good and dry goods in fair demand. At Omaha the dry goods, groceries and hardware trades are good, but at Denver bad weather makes trade quiet. Business at Nashville is improving, but at other points at the south business is quiet, and nearly all collections are slow and money somewhat close. Mobile reports large shipment of early vegetables, and New Orleans a bright outlook in building trades, though the breaking of levees will seriously affect northern Louisiana. Imports are still large, for three weeks in May exceeding last year's by nearly $6,000,000. but exports have somewhat increased and for three weeks 6how a slight gain. Money on call is cheap and abundant and loans on time for commercial needs are made with some difficulty and sparingly. The business failures during the past seven days number, for the United States. 259: Canada. 14; total, 273, -as compared with 261 last week and 280 the week previous to the last. For the corresponding week, of last year the figures were 198.

BOLD, BAD ROBBEKS. A Pair of Them Hold Up a Train on the Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe Road at Coleman, Tex., But Fail to Get Much Tangible Booty—Bloodhounds in Pursuit. Coleman, Tex., May 27.—The northbound Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe passenger train No. 52, due at 11:25 p. m., was held up and robbed at the north end of the Coleman “Y,” a distance of about 600 yards north of the depot; by two masked men. Train 52 turns here and runs to Coleman Junction to reach the main line, whelfe it proceeds to San Angelo. According to Conductor Frank Campbell’s statement the train stopped at the switch to cover the “Y” when two masked men crawled upon the engine and ordered the engineer and fireman to get off the engine and eompeled them to accompany them baek to the express car, and ordered them to have Express Messenger J. O. Barry open the car, which was done. The engineer, fireman, porter and Mail Agent Smith were then ordered to get into the car and make the express messenger open his safe before they entered his car themselves. They shot off their guns, and this attracted the conductor’^attention. He rushed up to the front of the train, but when he reached the platform of the second class-ear one of the masked men was on the left side of the train holding his gun on the porter. Conductor Campbell heard one of the robbers bid the messenger and crew good night, and hoping to meet them at the World's fair. It is supposed they got several thousand dollars and the Santa Fe employes' pay checks for Ballinger and'San Angelo. The mail ear and passengers were not molested. Sheriff Kingsberry, of Coleman, was notified of the robbery, and was on the scene thirty minutes after ii occurred. The robbers cut the telegraph wires, shutting off all communication east of Coleman. Sheriff Kingsberry went to Santa Ana to get the use of the wires, but could not get a wire south before 5 o’.clock a. m. A posse with bloodhounds arrived from Fort Worth and were joined by Sheriff Kingsberry and his men.

Winnie Davis to Accompany Her FatheaSa Remains to Richmond. New York, May 27.—Maj. J. Taylor, Elyson. of Richmond, Va., came toNew York Thursday, and in the evening left for New Orleans, accompanied by Miss Winnie Davis. Mrs. Jefferson Davis was to have gone, too, and accompany the remains of her husband from the Crescent City to the old confederate capital. At the last moment, however, she was compeled to abandon the idea, owing to indisposition. Mrs. Davis will go to Richmond, probably to-morrow, or at least in time to be present at next week'aceremonies

THE FARMING WORLD. BARBED WIRE FENCES. They Were End in France as Long Ago as 1801 and 1863. The writer has already called, attention to French patents of GrassinBaledans. 1861, and Jannin, 1863, for barbed wire fences, which are both anterior to the earliest date of invention set up by the first American patentee of j a barbed' wire fence, who, as is well i known, provided the wires of a wire fence with a series of spur wheels. Almost about the same time a Breton brick manufacturer, Gilbert Gavillard, received a French patent, dated August 27, 1867, No. 77,570, for a barbed wire fence, which may be described as follows, by following as nearly as possible the French description: This fence is composed of three galvanized wires and of spines, also galvanized, placed between and clamped by two strands, while the heads are covered by the third strand. These strands of galvanized wire are twisted together, so as to present iron thorns on all their faces. In order to form a fence, it suffices to plant posts in the ground and attach thereto, by means of iron wire hooks, three of these artificial thorny branches, Which are placed at a sufficient distance apart to prevent an

AN EARLY FRENCH rATEST ON BARBED AT IRE. imals from going1 over this thorny obstacle. ' A drawing annexed to the patent is herewith reproduced. It will be seen that it presents, in a very striking way. how an ox is prevented from reaching an apple on the cither side of the barbed fence. Although the drawing does not show the | form of the barbs, it is evident that they are j.-shaped, and that the third wire or strand prevents the barbs from dropping out by locking them in place between the two other strands. I The Gavillard patent may be considered as resembling the Michael Kelly patent of February 11. 1S6S, Xo. 74,379.— A. M. Tanner, in Scientific American. EEEF AND BUTTER. Dairymen IVIio Are Jacks at All Trades Cannot Succeed. Mr. Ken ry Stewart believes that there is no good reason why the farmer should not combine dairy production and beef production. That depends upon what sort of a dairy it is intended to maintain and what sort of beef it is intended to produce. If a farmer does not care much about his dairy and cares just as little about his beef, the plan is good enough. Any plan would be well enough in that ease. There are farmers who simply desire to make enough butter for home use, and if there is any over they take it to the country .store, nofgetting much for it and not caring if they dpn't. When the cow gets too old to produce a reasonable quantify of milk they sell her to the butcher—if they don't forget it —more to get rid of her than anything else. Mr. Stewart's plan will work admirably in such a case. But if a man believes that there is money in the dairy and means to go at work to get it out, and intends to prosecute his business as if he had faith in it, he had better not try to be a J aek of all trades. The man who achieves success in this world is the man who does not get too many irons in the fire. Every minute of eftergy that the dairyman expends in the direction of making beef production a prominent feature he will take from his dairy, and the dairy will suffer. If he wants to produce beef, better go at it, and make the dairy subordinate. If he wants to do all he can with the dairy, better make beef production subordinate. That is sound, and experience will show it to be so.—Farmers’ Voice.

Flan for Cheap Hog House. Build a regular frame, 7 or 8 feet high, 20x32. Have your feeding floor Tight in the middle, lengthwise, 4 feet wide, with five stalls on each side of the feeding floo’-; also a door to each stall all around. For feeding floor the door on one gable end, also one window on each gable end and half windows on each length side as high up as can be. For floor take good oak plank. For partitions I would take sycamore or any other kind of hard lumber. Each stall ought to have its own trough, and stick out" to feeding floor enough to put in your swill and feed; and one or two wooden ventilating chimneys on the roof. Windows ought to be fixed to open when wanted. This hog house will be handy for winter and summer use. You must have four long sills and two. short ones. All tke bottom timber ought to be oak. On cost you can have your own figures. My figures are 815 a thousand feet on lumber all around; would bring it to about 8125, besides carpenter Work. —Rural World. Tfa« Production of Milk. In our experience in producing milk wg have succeeded best by using from K to 20 pounds daily of a feed composed of 100 pounds of bran, SO pounds of wheat meal, 50 pounds of buckwheat shorts and 50 pounds of com chop, says a correspondent. The bran we use is not the “new process” bran—that we have found out by experience tcT be worth a good deal less than we paid for it—but a good, solid, old-fashioned bran—shorts and all. The wheat meal is made by grinding low grade wheat and taking out only the bran. The buckwheat shorts we regard as especially useful in causing a large flow of milk, and the com we add for its heat and flesh producing elements. A ton of this mixture costs us, at present prices, $10.75 per ton. We occasionally add oil meal in small quantities, but do nof think it would pay to add regularly at $25 per ton. We have no arrangements for cooking, and so feed dry.— Farmers’ Voice.

THE DARKIES OF OLD POINT. Aa a Natural Servitor the Negro 1* Working Out a Perfect Saltation. “The ever-looming smile of the courteous head-waiter, whose long service has made him an authority on matters germane to Old Point, mitigates the situation and robs grumbling of its sharpest edge. The way the soft answers of that kindly son of Ham turn away wrath is the greatest triumph of Christianity I have witnessed for many a long day. “The patience of these negroes, who work from daylight to late into the night, appeals to me, says a writer in Kate Field’s Washington, as nothing else has in old Virginia. It is one more proof of the splendid cjualltiesof a jpce belonging to the soil and only heeding industrial and moral training to be a blessing to themselves apd to the republic. > They are the right people in the right place, and when I hear palefaces declaiming against ‘lazy niggers,’ I wonder where their eyes are situated. There are'‘lazy niggers,’ lots of them, just as there are white tramps, but all negroes are not lazy. “I’ve never rung my bell but it has been answered promptlytbv black boys as courteous and painstaking as their elders in the dining-room. The chambermaids are equally civil and goodnatured, and I shall return north, more and more convinced that the negro is a natural servitor whose defects are due to slavery and neglect With enlightenment and opportunity the black race will fulfill a great mission. Assertion and insolence are the growth of ignorance and wrong. Abolish both, and these people- will redeem themselves.”

STIMULATING GROWTH. A Practical and Scientific Uw of Electricity In France. A practical, scientific use of electricity is made in Prance to stimulate the growth and increase the product of field crops. An apparatus which has been successfully used is called the geomagnetifer, says thy Philadelphia Record, and consists of a high pole set up in the field where the potatoes or other crops are growing. It supports an insulated head of galvanized iron, which terminates in the air in a sort of plexus of points and branches made of coppey. This collector* of electricity comniunicates by wire with a network of other wires, which ramify . through the earth around the foot of the pole and among the growing roots, beets, cabbages, potatoes or other crop buried deep enough to be out of the way in cultivating the crop. v It is found by experience that this apparatus collects the electricity which always exists in the atmosphere, and which is made especially manifest by storms, rain, wind, etc., and transmits it to the earth and the stratum of air nearest the earth. The resulting stimulus to the crop is very marked.' In one test within a superficial area of thirty-two meters the potato yield, in proportion to the yield of adjoining areas not electrically stimulated, was as ninety-one to sixty. Another report showed sixty-three kilograms of potatoes, as against thirty-eight kilograms grown under ordinary conditions. Other root crops and grapes give equally good results. Sandals for Horses. Mud shoes for horses are common in certain parts of Washington state, being used on horses in plowing the low and wet lands of the valley north of Sumner nearly every spring. The mud shoe consists of a heavy board about eight .inches wide and from eight to ten inches long, rounding in front. On this board a redhot shoe of the size worn on the horse’s foot for which it is intended is placed until it burns into it to a depth almost sufficient to bury itself. It is necessary tjiat the shoe have a long toe and long corks. A piece of circular band iron to fit over the top part of the hoof is then attached to the board and over the hoof to hold the mud shoe solidly to the foot. One end of the band is fastened to the board with a screw, which when tightened holds the board as squarely to the bottom of the hoof as if it had grown there. The horses become accustomed to wearing them, and after a day or two experience no difficulty in working in them. By this means farmers are enabled to plow land in the spring where without the use of the ' mud shoes horses would mire down.
