A 3rodcrate Business in Corn, with Slightly
Higher Prices Oats Active but Lower
But Little Change in Hog Products.
MOXETi STOCKS AND BONDS.
A Dull Day, with the General Drift of Prices
Upward and Closing at an Advance.
NEW YORK, July 9.-Money on call was
easy at CSS per cent., last loan being
made at 3 per cent, closing offered at 3 per
tent.
Prime mercantile paper, 412612 per cent.
Sterling exchange was more active and
steady at for sixty-day bills and
14.87 34 for demand.
The total sales of stocks to-day were 147,
253 share 8, including tho following: Atchi
son, 13.774; Delaware, Lackawanna &. West
ern, 10,700; Lake Shore. 4,250; New Jersey
Central, S.150; Northern Pacific preferred,
0,000; Keading, 13,540; St. Paul, 19,220; Union
Pacific, C.eoo.
The stock market seemed to have lost its
animation to-day and the trading was only
about half that of yesterday, though the
most confident feeling, which became so
noticeable last evening, continued through
out the day, and the general drift
Df prices was upward, though
the operations of the "bears"
And traders made a feverish and irregular ,
market during most of tho time. The
"short" did not like the aspect of affairs,
and there was considerable bidding for
stocks at the opening, and first prices, this
morning, aided by higher figures in Lon
don, were from to per cent, better than
last evening's final figures. The disposi
tion was evidently to await the action of
the presidents' meeting, however, and tho
demand for the time was entirely from the
"shorts," and tho "bears" made demonstra
tions against the- list which, in tho first
ow minutes, forced prices off to something
elow last night's prices. The heav
iest drive was made at Burlington,
and it fell 14 per cent. The 'short"
interest in this and Kock Island is becom
ing unwieldy, and Burlington commanded
n. premium of 1-64 of 1 per cent, and Kock
Island loaned at 1 per cent, for carrying.
The Taid was soon over, however, and the
market thereafter gave evidence of good
supporting orders, and though there was
little buying outside, of tho "shorts" and
. the foreigners, the market rallied and by
noon was materially higher than the open
ing ligu'-esl It became known that tho Al
ton was not represented at the meeting in
Chicago, and the professionals sold some
stocks after noon, which aain sagged the
list off.and Kock Island, which had been re
markably firm up to that time, declined.
Denver & Rio Grande preferred and St
Paul preferred were specially weak. The
weakest point in the market was the trusts,
and especially Sugar, which has sold on tho
expectation that the general term
would confirm the opinion of Judge
Barrett, and tho stock at one time was
about 3 per cent, lower than last even
ing. The coal stocks were all strong, and
Jersey Central especially, though it weak
ened somewhat toward delivery hour, with
the rest ot the list. Daring most of the day
the general list presented little or no feat
ure, and the market finally closed dull and
firm at something better than opening fig
ures. There were a larger number of railroad
bonds traded in to-day, but tho dealings
were for small amounts and tho aggregate
is smaller than yesterday, reaching only
1.0,000. There was only one active bond,
the Keading fours, which, furnished $134,
000 to the total. The general tone of the
market was linn, but many issues developed
considerable weakuess, and tho important
changes are about equally divided between
gains and losses. Denver fc Kio Grande
fours lost at 79b, and Denver & South
Park certificates 2, at UOjc.
Government bonds dull and steady.
State bonds dull and heavy. Closing

TRADING AT CHICAGO.
llie Ups and Downs of the Market, with the
Ranee In Prices of Leading Articles.
CHICAGO, July 9.-TTading in wheat
was active and the market was stronger.
There was some investment buying and
"shorts" covered freely. July advanced 2o
and closed about lo higher than
yesterday. The market opened Xiq
higher, declined he, then advanced 134C
and closed ljc higher. September closed
l1 higher. December wheat is attracting
the principal attention; it opened 1s'2!;Vc
higher, declined c, then advanced lc.
aud closed lhc higher than yesterday. Tho
feeling was unsettled early iu tho session,
but developed a rather bullish tendeucy
later. The very strong tenor of foreign ad
vices was the principal inllnence on the
market. English markets evidently aro
being afleeted some by dry weath
er. Domestic markets were all
higher. Thero was 6ome buying,
no doubt iu expectation that tho
government report will make a poorer
bowing. 8omo look for a falling off in
winter wheat and some for a possible in
crease. It was generally rumored that tho
report would put the condition of wheat in
Dakota at -To against Ni last month. A
moderate business was transacted In corn,
with the bulk of the trading at slightly
higher prices, a tinner leeliug prevailing.
'l'h better tone was due largely to the
active demand for cash property. The mar
ket opened at yesterday's closing prices,
advanced c, fluctuated frequently withiu
a narrow ranife, and closed o better than
yesterday. Oats developed more activity,
but it was at a lower rauge of prices. Tho
demand was light and the execution of out-
eide celling orders, coupled with liberal
oiler in 3, produced ft decline of hiru Vo. At
inside figures fair purchases were mado to
cover shorts" but tho market closed quiet
aud easy.
A fairly active trade was reported in
mess pork and almost exclusively in Au
gust aud September deliveries. Opening"
sales were mado at 5c advance, but a weak
er feeling was developed later and prices re
ceded 10'd) 122C. Toward the close the market
ruled stronger, and prices rallied 7V10c.
but settled Dack again STo andclosed
steady. A moderate business was trans
acted in tho lard market. Tho feeling was
somewhat unsettled, and prices ruled ir
regular and averaged stronger. Opening
prices wero .OCc better. A reduction of
.OTjc was sustained later. Toward the closo
the feeling was steadier and prices ad
vanced .(T2s.OGo and closed steady. The
market for short-ribs sides was fairly act
ive and prices exhibited very little change.
Tho leading futures ranged as follows:

Lawns and Lawn-Mowers.
American Agriculturist.
A large proportion of the lawns In city.
Tillage and country are deteriorating, and.
closo examination shows the turf to be
thin, the desirable grasses weak, browning
quickly under drought and hot sun, while
coarse, unsightly plants creep in and re
tain a foothold. The beauty of the lawn
diminishes with ago in spite of liberal fer
tilizing and close and regular JScnttirig.
What is the reason? Mainly, it is the ex
cessive uso of the modern lawn-mower, , Jn
nearly every locality may be found pasture
lands long set with grasses fine and 'rich.
holding color well under midsummer sun
and drought, with a thick, elastic turf,
through which no color of soil can be seen
the very perfection of a lawn if it wero
trimmed close and even. Why does
the pasture flourish through a
score of years and the lawn de
cay? Simply because the pasture is kept
nearly under natural conditions, and-tne
lawn is subjected to an intense Chinese
dwariing system. Suppose the - lawn is
newly made, according to the best instruc
tions, the soil deeply dug, enriched and
made clean and hue, tho seeds sown and
the grass plants show thick and strong.
What next! The lawn-mower twice or
three times a week until growth stops in
autumn. Next spring the grass makes a
renewed struggle for existence, starts early
and strong again. It lifts its blades to the
sun and air that it may push its roots into
tho rich soil for moisture and sustenance.
The effort is promptly met by the
lawn-mower. Growth is checked above
and underground; sp through an entire
season and succeeding years. The iaw is
that the root growth of the plant is in pro
portion to its top growth; the root growth
is shallow. Of what avail is the deep, rich
soilf Is it a wonder that the lawn browns
early, and that coarse, hardy plants get a
foothold?
Give the grass plant a chance to make
adequate root growth, if you would have
and keep a good lawn. Head the lesson of
the pasture lands. Encourage it a little, in
early spring, and in the autumn lay the
lawn-mower away early, and let a thick,
strong growth of grass be the winter pro
tection of the lawn.
Places for Orchards. . . ....
Country Gentleman.
There aro two kinds of advice given for
selecting localities for orchards. Ono is to
place them where the soil is best, leyel and
more easily cultivated, on the ground that
the products of .the orchard are worth more
per acre than any other crops,1 and conse
quently the trees deserve the best land.'
The other advice is' to select hillsides;
stony lots and other lots which cannot be
cultivated for corn and potatoes, and thus
torn the unprofitable ground to account.
The first mentioned advice to select good
land is far the best if -the trees are to re
ceive cultivation only and a clean soil. The
harrow and cultivator cannot bo nsed on
tho steep hillsides and among the obstruct
ing stones. The trees on tne level land
may be kept in a tine thrifty condition if
the soil is worked enough to be at all times
clean and mellow the first half of summer,
The hillsides will be infested with. weeds,
grass and bushes, and will have a very poor
'chance. But the rich, level, mellow ground,
if also neglected, will bo but little better.
There is no reason, however, why "the
hillside orchard should not be successful
if well ton-dressed with barn manure.
Some of the finest orchards we have ever
seen, bearing fine crops of excellent fruit,
were thoso which were annually top
dressed in the autumn with manure, and
with such other attention to insects and
other drawbacks as they appeared to re
quire. It is well, however, to bo cautious
in recommending rough ground, even . to
those who may "know the importance of
manuring, as there is such a strong tend
ency with nearly all persons to neglect
their good resolutions and to give the trees
insufficient care.
Some Tested Recipes,
Baked Tomatoes Choose large tomatoes,
as nearly the same size as possible. From
the stem end tako out the seeds and inner
part of the tomato; make a stuffing of bread
crumbs, finely chopped cold ham and the
chopped tomato; season with butter, pep
per, a little Bait and mustard. Fill the to
matoes with the stuffing, and bake them.
Add a little butter to them before putting
in the oven, and a very little water in the
baking-pan. When they are done set them
where they will keep hot; add a little more
butter and hot water to the baking-pan,
and make a thin gravy, thickening it with
browned flour and stirring in a tablespoon
ful of sugar.
Milk and Tomato Soup One can toma
toes; one quart milk; butter, size of an egg;
one-auarter teasnoonful baking powden
salt and neDner to taste. Boil the tomatoes
half an hour in a large vessel without sea
soning. When these are nearly done, put
the milk on in another vessel and let it
boiL Take the tomatoes from the stove
and strain through a colander. Then put
in the pinch of baking powder, lhis is to
nrevent the milk curdling. It will cause
the tomatoes to foam up, so bo sure to put
it in uciore mo miiK. xow uuu uie diiik,
butter, and pepper and salt to taste. Boil
again about fifteen minutes, and slightly
thicken witn a little cornstarch, bervo
with soda-crackers or crisp dry toast.
Cheap Food for Cows.
J. G.. in Country Gentleman.
Tf baa Inner Tipat n. Via 1 iff that nnmA form
of soiling will need to be "invented" if the
extreme possibility of dairying is reached,
and, up to date, tho silo seems to have
come nearest to tne demand. When an

per da)' and six pounds of bran is nniplo
feed for a milch cow, and reduced to bush
els the ensilage in the pits costs about
three-quarters of a cent per bushel of forty
pounds loose, ho, as to cheapness, the act
ual feed cost of a day's ration falls below
8 cents per cow, which is a pointc,, at
least toward a cheap but satisfactory ra
tion for milk returns.

ing, the great campaign of 1SS8, it has
taken a leading position among tho most
prominent jorirnals of the country, and
