Some one has defined genius as " con- • soientioas thoroughness." • 'No key to busi- ness success is more reliable than such thoroughness and it is within the easy reach of all. We remember hearing the following -atory which illustrates flis truth : It seems that a merchant had made up his mind to take a young man na partner in his growing business. While looking for the right man he chanced to hear a conver- • sation between two clerks somewhat as follows: Have you thoroughly cleaned the floor behind those barrels ? Yea : with the exception of a few corks, which are of no consequence." "That won't do, You must not waste even norke. Pick them all up." The reply of the senior clerk made for him a fortune. The merchant made him an offer 'of partnership and a career of continued success followed, closed only a few weeks ago by his death. To be Successful. THE MARKETS• ; RIAPOILTH, August'17th. 1893.

Besides these, I have bad during my business career the following mottos: 'Be kind,' 'be • true,' 'Keep out of debt,' Do the best and leave the rest,' 'What can't be cured must be en- dured,' The perfect man is one who has a clear commission, an honest purpose, a brigbt mind, and a healthy body. I can't bring too great stress on the matter of strict temperance. Drinking wine, beer or spirits is a useless and da,figerous habit. It does no good, and if persisted in it is almost sure to lead to destruction and death. You should have courage enough to say "no" if you are asked to drink. There io no safety in mod- erate drinking.. The man who touches alco- • holic drink is in danger. As to sociability, yeti should try to make companions of the best people that you cais become acquainted with. In order to do this you must have something in yourself that may be n return to them for what they give you. A man is known by the company he keeps. I can not sum up my advice to young people better than to say the greatest pleasure in life comes from doing good to others.

LONDON', AUFlUit 15.—The Mark Lane Express, in its weekly review of the British grain trade, sags : New !English wheat is offered in provincial markets at 23a per qr. Besides the serious deficit in the gen- eral yield of honie grown wheat, the yield of grain of milling quality is almost everywhere declared to be dieappoiriting. Foreign wheat has de- clined six pence. At the close of the market in London to -day all breadstuffe were firmer. New English red wheat sold at Iron/ 26s to 30e and white at from 278 to 34e. American wheats wereheld for 6d advance. Oats were firm. -Corn was steady. Fine flour was held for an advance. The prices of rye, linseed and rapeseed favored buyers. The Agricul- tural Gaaette published collated reports from 500 districts of the United Kingdom, showing that the cereal harvest this year is the worst since 1879. The hay crop is the worst ever recorded. Potatoes alone are above the average. What Fence Will We pee? We lave found We old rail fence well staked and with a good rider very serviceable, although it took up a lot of room and harbored weeds. But now the timber is too valuable to out into rails, so that the snake fence will soon be a thing of the past. The next NM fence is that mole with barbed wire which serve' the purpose of turning cattle and horses, but 'beep and pigs find no difficulty in get- ting through it. Everybody, however, knows what damage is done to horses by such a dangerous fence, and what an expense it is to keep up an army of veterinary surgeons to treat injured stock.• No other wire fence has since proved itself a success and the problem. is yet unsolved.

At the invitation of Mr. Kennedy, Agent of the Stratford Hedge Fence Company, we te-day visited the head office of the Company and investigated their business. We were met by Mr. McPherson., secretary, and Mr. Kennedy, agent of Abe Company, who drove us to some hedge fences, upright fences, 20 or 30 feet high, which have always proved useless, the growth all going to the top, leaving the bottom bare of foliage,. with large openings between, the plants through which hogs and sheep could pass. We saw pieces similar to this, until the company plashed them, the result being simply marvellous. By this method of treatment, that is, bending the trees at the root at an angle of 46 degrees, and attaching to them horizontally, by means of staples, four wires. The shoots come out all along the up- per side of the bent trunks, growing upwards. The -fence then consists of treee leaning diagonally, the wires harizontally, the shoots growing upright, in- terweaving among the trunks and wires, making a complete net work, through which no domestic animal could pass. This being all covered with a bright green, thick foliage, is very pretty, and the contrast very striking between this substantial and beautiful fence and the old useless row of trees. We examined the plant bed where the plants are grown, sonic of• last year's sowing and the others of this spring's. We understand that tbe company leave ten acres for next spring's sowing. We next drove out the St. Marys road (viewing the hedge fences on the way) and down through the gore of Downie and South Easthopo, where long stretches of thrifty hedges were seen. after dinner at Titvistock, we set out for Sebastapool, where we saw 40 rods of the nicest and most substantial fence a man could con- ceive of. The plants had been set in one straight row, and when plashed made a better appearance than where two rows had been sat. None of the objectionable features -so often urged against the fence were noticeable here. No stickers come up through the roots, no injury is done the crops grow- ing along side. No damage done by cattle browsing on the fence From there the party went east and saw a honey locust hedge treated according to the old country notion of plashing, that is, by interweav- ing the branches through each other. This is not much better than the upright hedge. We saw any quantity of hedge in Wilmot and Waterloo. On the Huron Road we saw at the old Union Hotel a piece of very fine hedge en the farm of S. Fryfogel. It was thickened with branches right to the base, and is so strong that ten nien could not bear it down. At • Stratford we saw the hedges of Messrs. Bereh and Faik, both of which were very pretty and substantial. ,We have no hesitation in saying that this fence is the coming fence, as it combines all the advantages of the most substantial fence with those of the most beautiful. If the ground is properly prepared the plants make a vigorous growth. Some we saw of two years' growth measured 6 to 7 feet high and inches in circumference, and promise to be a com- plete and thoroughl) satisfactory fence. We have, therefore, every confidence in recommending it to our neighbors. JOIIN BEA'111E, D C. C., Tilos. E.

TORONTO, August 15.—Export Cattle—The export trade is still dull owing to the bad Markets in Eng- land.

At the market to -day cattle of average quality ruled at from $4 to 81.25 per cwt, and a few choice selections were re- ported sold as high as $4.80. Four loads, averaging 1,390 lbe, it was said, brought this figure •, two loads, averaging 1,275 the, sold at $4.621- per cwt ; fourteen cattle, averaging 1,290 ibe, brought 84.10 per cwt, while one load averaging 1,800,brought $60 per head. Butchers' cattle ruled at from Be 56 ne per lb for good stock, with fair demand for cattle in good con- dition.
