TRADE CONDITIONS.
Reviews of. the Week's Trade and
Business Interests.
BRADSTREETS CHEERFUL, DO DULL.
The Volume of Domestic Trade in the
South Unchanged, With Hopeful
" -" Outlook for the Future The
Markets at Length.
New York, February 24. It. G. Dun
& Co.'s weekly review of trade says:
A waiting condition of business is
one in which weekly fluctuations mean
nothing. Business of all kinds is hesi
tating until more can be determined
about the future, and meanwhile or
ders which will keep hands at work
for a tlme'are given and accepted, this
week increasing and in some others de
creasing, without affording reasonable
indications of the future.
Prices are again greatly depressed;
as low, or lower than ever, having been
made in wheat, silver and some manu
factured products, and neither cotton,
wool nor raw iron have advanced.
The glutted money markets continue
to show that the volume of business is
etill inadequate to employ the circula
tion available, and the withdrawal of
about S60.000,000 from the New York
market by the sale of government
bonds, does not cause the expeeted
strengthening of rates. With gradual
ly deceasing shipments of merchan
dise to other countries, foreign ex
change rises, and soma exports of - gold
are expected.
Bra Jstreets" Keport.
New York, February '24. -,,In their
weekly review of the state of trade,
Bradstreets says: .
The demand for fertilizers remains
moderately active at Charleston and
Augusta, and at the latter city collec
tions have improved, as has the de
mand for cotton faetory products.
Trade at Atlanta is dull, but at Chat
tanooga the season"s business in hard
ware, is reported more satisfactory than
last year. General trade is unchanged
at Savannah and quiet at Xashviile,
where collections are only fair. Mem
phis reports moderately active, with a j
tendency to improvement in business.
At Birmingham and at Galveston no
change is reported in business. Heavy
rains have affected dealings in New
Orleans, although rice is active and
the corn export movement heavy. Dal
laB reports a growing volume of busi
ness, with eold weather stimulating the
request and immigration enhancing the
values of farm lauds.
Industrial changes have been few,
but a little better demand for some
textile goods has started more mills
than have stopped.-

Why does your tobacco take second growth and
cure black ? Because just at the time that it needed
all of its strength to ripen, your cotton guano gave out
in strength. We can point to farniers who have nev

Tinsley's Guano. You had better use one sack of
Tinsley's to the acre than three sacks of cotton goods.
It will give you better results. It is the color that tells
