Selections

Facta About Fruit It la well to know that one of the greatest advantages of fruit Is that it (/Sera us pure water for which we do not need a filter, to the amount of nearly 60 per cent jn berries and more than 92 per cent in-water-melons. Oranges and lemons are not only valuable by reason of their potash salts, but especially for their citric acid. As an aid of digestion—a really material aid—the pineapple stands alone among the fruits. Its vegetable pepsin neutralizes -f or, perhaps, rather digests—albuminous substances In the stomach. In cases of catarrhal ailments of the throat and In its downward connection the alimentary canal or tract pineapple cannot be overestimated and It acts with equal force in malarial affections. As for the date and the plantain, says the New York World, they contain sufficient nutriment to sustain life. The salts and organic acids In the apple tend to Improve the quality of the blood.

A Shallow Arctic Sea.

The United States Coast and Geodetip Survey has published an account of the tides of the Arctic Ocean, based upon the observations of Admiral Peary north of Greenland, and of Mikkelsen and J effing well at Flaxman Island, off the .coast of Alaska. Sufficient evidence has been gathered to suggest that a large area, covering bout 600,000 square miles and lying between Alaska and the Pole, is only slightly submerged. The way In which the tidal wave Is formed seems to oontradlct entirely the supposition that a deep and uninterrupted ocean separates Alaska from the Polar Bea.

Half-Cleaned Glasses.

Referring to the well-known evils of the public drinking cup, the Medical Press carries the matters a stop further by pointing out a lesser realized source of danger. This applies to the use of utensils in public places of refreshment. Our contemporary insists that something urgently requires to be done in regard to the glasses used in bars, refreshment-roon\B and hotels. The superficial rinsing and perfunctory wipe Is obviously Inadequate and ought to be abolished, for it gives the semblance of cleanliness, where cleanliness does not exist

Her Cradle a Pumpkin.

A giant pumpkin which four-year-old Miss Rolls of Santa Paula used as a cradle was raised by C. G. Teague, manager of the Blanchard ranch, and is particularly wonderful for the fact that on the same Vine were twelve others weighing an average of 180 pounds each. As this weighs 230 pounds a little figuring shows that there was over a ton of pumpkin on one vine—2,39o pounds, to be exact It received no fertilizer or special cultivation. This pumpkin * measures 7 feet 8 inches around the “waist” stands 3 feet 9 inches high and measures in circumference lengthwise 10 feet 3 inches.

Crab-Shell Barometer.

A curious and simple barometer is used by the people who inhabit the southern-most province of Chile. It consists of the cast-off shell of a crab. The dead shell is Bald to be extremely sensitive to atmospheric changes, remaining quite white in dry weather, but indicating the approach of moisture by the appearance of small red spots, which grow both in number and in size as the moisture in tho air increases, until finally, with the actual occurrence of rain, the shell becomes entirely red, and remains so throughout the rainy season.

A Bird’s Nest of Steel.

In the Museum of Natural History at Soleure in Switzerland, there is a birds’ nest made entirely of steel. There are a number of clock-making shops at Soleure and in the yards of these shops there are aften found lying disused or broken springs of clocks. One day a clock maker noticed in n tree in his yard a bird’s nest of peculiar appearance. Examining it, he found that a pair of wag-tails had built a nest entirely of clock springß. It was more than four inches across and perfectly comfortable for the birds.

A Doctor’s Germ-Proof House.

A doctor in Yokohama, Japan, has built himself a novel house with a view to guarding against microbes. The walls of this remarkable edifice are made of blocks of glass. They are hollow, the interstices being filled with a solution of salts of soda, which is intended to regulate the temperature of the interior. The windows are hermetically closed and air is only admitted after passing through filters

Fidgeting Children.

The child who shows no disposition to move about and is apparently happier sitting still will grow up to be slow-witted, heavy. On the other hand, the baby who is always using its arms and legß will be intelligent, its brain will work quickly, and it will without doubt be clever.

The crank is then turned and In A few minutes a hole Is drilled In the toughest stump. This Is filled with dynamite and the tree butt is sent to the four winds.

Notes of The Farm.

The only really successful garden Is the clean garden. Turnips as a second crop more than pay for the time and work pat in on them. Making a good garden is a man’s job. Do not leave the hard work to the women folk. Wild strawberries have a most delicious flavor. They are easily transplanted to the garden. Cauliflower can be grown more easily than cabbage. It is always in demand and at good prices. Do not plant short rows, but let them run the whole length of the garden If need Why not? A handful of grain dug Into an ant-hill will bring the chickens to It, and then—good-by to the Insects. A plant of Swiss chard sown adjoining the poultry yard, will supply greens all summer, provided the fowls are not allowed to eat It more than'an hour a day.

Artificial Heat Injurious.

It 1b becoming geae’*ally known that stock kept In artificially heated buildings, or even in some of the modern airtight stables, suffer more than their less favored brothers who know the chill of winter and the heat of hummer, growing hardy and strong in the sunshine and snow. This is also true of poultry. Fowls kept in close-fitting coops with no ventilation and little exorcise are not famous for longevity, health or egg production. Have the door opening to the south, and a good large one at that, and even during the severe winter weather keep this open as much as possible during the daytime, elosing it at sundown.

Parasites on Sheep.

Some authorities claim that sheep ought not to be pastured ou land more than one year before it is plowed and reseeded, to parasites, but it has been shown that sheep have been kept frete from parasites by the use of tar, turpentine and salt Bore two-inch holes in a pine log, fill with salt and smear tar around the top, and sheep wfll tar their noses while eating salt Sheep Boon learn to eat tar. One sheep raiser keeps, it mixed with turpentine and salt where it is accessible at all times. About one-half pint of turpentine to one peck of salt is the proper proportion.

Provide Straw.

Straw is too valuable to be wasted as it is on most farms in the East It should form a part of the ration and surely be made into bedding. Why so many dirty cows and horses every winterT Why so many filthy calf pens? Simply because the straw pile is perhaps away out in the field covered with snow, and practically inaccessible. If barn room is scarce, why not press several tons of straw just to store away for bedding when the stack cannot be reached easily? Baled straw can be compactly stored.

Dimensions of an Acre.

An acre ia this country contains 4&,&60 square feet, or I*o square rods. ▲ patch *9 yards 6 inches wide and T 9 yards song is practically an acre of ground. It is far better to see just how much oaa.be raised on on acre than to follow the old plan of showing just how many acres one is able to plant and partially cultivate.

TIME.

I saw a mighty river, wild and vast. Whose rapid waves were moments which did glide , - So swiftly onward In their SA lent tide That ere their flight was heeded they were past; A river that to death’s dark shore doth fast Conduct all living with resistless force And, though unfelt, pursues its noiseless course. To quench all fires In Lethe’s < stream at last Its current with creation’s birth was born And with the heavens commenced its march sublime, In days and months, still harrying on untired. Marking its flight, I inwardly did ' mourn And of my musing thoughts in doubt, Inquired The river’s name. My thoughts responded, Time. —Vincenzo Da Filicaia.

PATRIOTISM.

Thus every good his native \ wilds Impart Imprints the patriot passion on his heart And even those Ills that round his mansion rise Enhance the bliss his scanty fund supplies. Dear is that shed to which his soul conforms And dear that hill which lifts him to the storms And, as a child, when scaring sounds molest, Clings close and closer to the mother’s breast So the loud torrent and the whirlwinds roar. But bind him to his native mountains more. —Oliver Goldsmith.
