If it ever becomes possible to measure *the velocity of a lightning bolt it will have to be done with some instrument not yet invented. A flash is to it as a trotter is to a racehorse. If a dozen lenses were focused on space and ieould by some lucky accident happen to be put in oper ition at the instant an able-bodied fire bolt began its gyrations it would catch something like this:

FREAKS OF LIGHTNING.

Soms of the Peculiar Forms It Assumes

During Thunder Storms.

Conformations Caught bv the Detective Camera—The Deadly Zig-zag and Dazzling

Bolt.

Some of the most tremendous electrical storm3 ever known in this country nave occurred during the last two •summers. Many people have been instantly killed by the mysterious i^ent. which scie ice now proposes to harness .•or the execution of co:idomnj:l mur-ieiv-r.s, and the ties [.ruction of property aas been something unpreeodetitid. At the same time the display in the heaven.s has been of such a character as to awaken feeling's of awe and Serror in the superstitious, and to amaze even the scientific inve.iti^at:.)i*. During sorao of the electrical storms there were times when the whole sky, from zenith to nadir, seemed a glittering' mass of lire about to wreak destruction upon every animate thing below.

Scientists have spent half their lives and Un.-lo Sa-n expended a goodly bit of treasury surplus in the a'torn to ascep .:».in the atmospheric condition.} whu 'i pro luce tiio eh*ui«p.i in the wealh• but the path of Hie lightning and the nature of the most si olio agent in the universe sliil remain to a very large extent a se led book io the savants. Ciouds. wind, air emvenL-j and centers of radiation are ail more or less familiar topics to the weather sharps, but the freaks of the potent illuminator of the sky are beyond their ken.

Recent experiments with the instantaneous camera have done much toward bringing some of the eccentricities of lightning within our comprehension but the little they have disclosed only serves to augment curiosity. It is a strange commentary upon the limit3 set to ill's knowledge that he should know less about the flambeaux of the clouds, which flash about and over him. than he does about the remote planet Mars.

Ono of the most interesting and novel experiments in this direction was made a few with the instantaneous oamera, while a severe thunderstorm svas raging east of Sandy Hook. Intermittent flashes lit up the sky, followed at longer intervals by a blinding blaze of light, so dazzling that when it expired the whole atmosphere seemed filled with a sulphurous blackness. It was night.

Focusing the camera on the group of nimbus clouds that marked the storm center, the operator waited his opportunity. It me in a moment. Banners of bluish-white streamed out from a common branch or center, extending ail over the horizon and glittering there, for probably two seconds, when they expired. The exposure showed a perfect picture of "trunculated" lightning, every branch of the tree being connected with the parent stem, although the connection had not been visible to the naked eye. In this ease the streamers ran from the zenith downward. Later another exposure brought the reverse picture, the lines of glittering flame traversing the sky from the horizon upward. The swiftness of the passage of the fluid in the •heavens may be imagined from the fact that the exposure, only occupying a little over a second, took in the whole tree as a unit, on both occasions.

These five positions are curves described by a single bolt, all five being risible and vanished in the fraction of a second—just long enough to leave an impression less on the eyo than on tlie mind of the observer. The curve and dip alternately were not unlike those of a shuttlecock, but were so swift and dazzling that the impression received was but a weak approximation of the reality.

Another strange picture was that of the deadly "articulated" lightning which, beginning at a point in the southeast, traveled swiftly downward, branching off at intervals tind then disappearing with a sharp westward curve, in the direction of the earth. Thif and tlie "zig-zag" flash, are the only forms of lightning regarded as fatal to life or dangerous to property, as they invariably seek the earth. In their descent the stream broadens till it

attains the dimensions of a wide belt of fire, traveling at inconceivable speed band leaving in its trail a distinct sulhurous odor. At a distance in the |ky it aeem« like a slender bar of bluish yeliowiah white.

quent accompaniment of- sevens electrical storms by land and sea. Its velocity is equal to that of the curving bolt or fire ball, but progressing in a direct path apparently travels much more swiftiy, and either explodes in mid-air, vanishing in impalpable fragments, or strikes the earth or water, making a deep furrow, but leaving no other tangible trace of its existence. "VVe know very little about light ning and its forms," said Capt. Dunn, the chief signal observer of New York. "What is a lightning-bolt?" he was asked.

Capt. Dunn grinned. "Well, to tell the truth." said ho, "you have asked something which neither I nor any oilier man 1 know of can answer. There's Prof. Loomis v.'ho says a firebolt or lightning-ball is 'a congiomerar tiou of ponderable suslances in great tenuity, and the whole charged witl eiect -iciiy.' Tu.it'a as clear .s mud, isn't it? Technicalties aside, it is said to be a- mass of fine particles of matter, which the electricity has attracted and fused, and which is driven along at incredible spejd by the currents generated by the electrical conditions that surround it. I cannot say whether any of them are composed of gas alone in a stale of combustion nobody can say so. I have no doubt, however, that the majority, if not all, are composed of matter which, when it falls on the earth is probably very much of the same sort as the fr guients of aerolites we sometimes find after we have traced their descent from the sky. Whether they are originally gaseous, or are simply matter collected from the atmosphere and chemically changed in descent by electricity or other forces, is impossible to determine." "You have been a very close observer of storms, Capt lin what are the conditions most favorable to electrical disturbances?'' "They are according to the location and topographic surroundings. Here, in jS'ew York city. 1 have noticed thai whenever we have a south or southeast wind, of a, hot summer afternoon, and when there were clouds in the air wtdl cliarucJ with ectrieity, liic wind blows them over in the direction of the Orange mountains. Thjiv. they meet the dry, cool air of the hills and they ba,ck right up and lloat over tho city. A thunderstorm is the result of this encounter. "The nimbus is always the storm cloud—never the cumulus. It is a

to calculate the distance of a storir center by counting between the flash and the report, although I know that it is a very old and generally accepted way. It is certainly very unscentific, for there are many considerations that might make this method useless, such as the direction of the wind, the imperfect conductivity of the cloud, etc. "In a thunderstorm, where is the. safest place for a person who is outdoors?1'

said much less danger of getting1 strucic than if he were dry. This is on the theory that water is a good conductor, and will carry the electricity off to the ground without diinger. There is a variety of conductors. Hot air is oue—

elsewhere. Now, assuming that any

one can be perfectly sa fe, it can be best done by insulating one's self in a hammock swung with silken strings in a room, or it one has no hammock, one should lie down on a feather bed. Then the chances of being struck are certainly much less than even the proverbial one in a million."

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.

Crude retro)cum on tlie Farm. I have not used linseed oil for oiling farm implements, but have used crude petroleum, and think it pays well, says a writer in the Rural. I I have just finished oiling not only the rims, but the entire woodwork of a two-horse farm wagon. It is astonishing how much oil the rims will absorb in a hot, dry time. As fast as the brush is drawn over the surface the oil disappears, and when a piece of sappy wood is met with it takes up oil luce a sponge. 1 think linseed oil better than petroleum, but the expense is too gre to use it as freely as it ought to be used, it is no use advising farmers to pay liUe or 70c per gallon for linseed oil and soak the woodwork of their wagons and implements with it when tney see the oil going into the wood so rapidly they will stay their hands and say: "Behold, that is quite enough," long before the wood is tilled. You can do a first-class job when you are all the time trying to save in the materials if you are repairing a fence and put in one nail where two are needed, or try to make one rail serve for two one tload of manure instead of three, or one pint of oil. where two quarts are required. If a farmer buy a barrel of crude petroleum and use it freeiy on his implements he will save its cost every year—provided he is what is called an "average" farmer whose tool shed is co-extensive with his farm.

Crude petroleum is easily applied and cheap mine cost i^c per gallon and it will penetrate wood deeper than the heavier linseed oil its uses on the f..rm are almost numberless. It can be used in the henhouse to kill licc on pigs and other animals for the same purpose on dogs to kill fleas on plow moldboards to keep them from rusting on tehin.'es to prevent weir and squeaking o.i roofs to prevent decay on siding to precede and save paint and on any kind of exposed woodwork, It is always ready lor use, and its cheapness will cause it to be usel where a more expensive oil or a paint would not be. I believe if the rims of •wagon wheels are kept filled with crude petroleum they will never decay, and the tires will not need setting nearly 60 often.

old, savs the Fort Worth

(Tex.) Gazette. If the mare has been well fed while i*earing the colt she will not suffer in the least from this period of milking, but the colt will gain very much by it. Before weaning the colt should be used to the halter and tied in a seperatc stall when in the stable, to which it should be brought occasionally, even while in pasture. Here some bran and crushed oats should be given, and when weaned the ration should be increased from two qu rls a day to four quarts (which will be quite safe for the growing animal) of tuis food, but no corn should given until the winter, when a pint to a qu irt iy be added to the feed. 'Then the real training should begin. The colt should be led by the halter firsl then after it has been taught to lead well,.a bridle with a smooth bit should be used, and after this has become familiar a harness made for tlie purpose should be put on it, and the colt taught to draw a light cart or sled. Gradually it may be used to a saddle and to being ridden by a small boy of light weight. During all this time the colt should be tamed and made docile by constant handling and feeding from the hand a little grain, salt or sugar, so that it will come when called and evince no fear of the owner. A horse thus trained will never be vicious nor troublesome unless spoiled afterward.

The market does not demand

rich cheese, that containing 28 to '30 per cent, of fit bringing about as much as that containing 4 per cent., and hence it is not profitable to make very t-ich milk into cheese. But it is desirable to retain in the cheese all the fat there is in the milk. For this Id| reason milk for cheese iking needs to be handled very differently from milk for butter making. For the

infested by rats, and how to get rid of them has long been a perplexing question. Traps were used, but nothing would tempt the rodents to enter, In a store-room drawer was placed a quantity of sunflower seeds, used as food for some of the birds. Into thia drawer the rats gnawed thee/ vay, a fact which led the captain to experiment with them for bait in the traps.

he result was that the rats can't be kept out. A trap which appears crowded with six or eight rats is found some mornings to hold fifteen.

Poultry X'ickinjfs.

Moulting hens should be given a feeding of linseed meal two or three times a week. If fed exclusively on corn or wheat the hens will become debilitated, and droop. A mess of chopped meat occasionally is also excellent.

A large flock of hens do not thrive as weil as a smaller Hock, owing to crowding and competition. The scraps from the table amount to but little when given to large flocks, but for a few liens they are of advantage and greatly reduce the cost.

The seed of sorghum makes good feed for chickens in winter. In some places where it is grown largely it is preferred for this use to corn. Ripening the seed sufficiently to save it rather increases the product of sweet, thus making a crop of seed and another of sweetness from the same growth.

The Draft-Horse Interest.

It is wonderful how America has, advanced in practical appreciation of the draft-horse interest. A few years ago, says the Western Agriculturist, my thought the half bloods too large and heavy to use on the farm to-day we see high grades as large as full bloods on many farms, and they are now as well ppreciated where they have bean tried on American farms as on the European farms where the fullblood heavy d.aft horse is the agriculturul horse. The grade draft mares quite generally are kepi for the farm work and for breeding. More eful or luable :iiinials can not be found on any farm than a few high-sjrads draft mares. Some are too often tempted by the prices to ell their best mares, but that is like selling the goose that b'ys the golden egg.

Rather breed with a view to raising the best draft brood mares, and soon the increased numbers of colts with improved size and quality will be a mine of wealth on the farm.

Failure of Handling.

There is, we believe, one reason that will account for more failures in ranching and iarm operations than any other, unless it be tiryng to do too much with too little capital (and they are apt to go hand in hand) and that is working at cross purposes. There is no business in the world that will stand this kind of management, and the farm and ranch may be ruined by it almost as soon a? any other. For instance: A man conclules that i)e will grade, up his stoc.cnnd accordingly purchases buiis of a certain beef breed, lie lias been to the fairs and notieeJ perhaps that Short-horni were til?, best looking animals there, but he does not take into consideration the care that was required to produce these results. lie buys animals that have been used to all the care and attention that it was possible to give them and throws them into his ran^e without protection, and perhaps without feed summer or winter other than what they can gather for themselves. Tho result is disappointing if the bulls live over the lirst year they probably do not get half a dozen calves each, the second season. The proneness of man to attribute his misfortune to anything rather than his own mismanagement leads him to curse the breed and try another rather than build shelter and provide feed. He hears of some one who is having1 success with Herefords, Polled Angus, Devons or some other breed and immediately selects that with little if any better results.—Texas Stockman.

Staking: .Stock.

A rope is not fit to stake a cow with it becomes drabbled with dew, stiff and kinked and soon wears out. A tracechain answers the purpose well and may be lengthened or shortened ac/cording to the intervals between the trees. A chain much over 10 or 12 feet long is apt to entangle the animal's legs and throw it down, causing injury. The stake-pin should be of jn iron, at least a fojt long, with a very sharp point, and at the top a groove around it in which works a link. This link is compressed in the midc'le, the outer end receiving'the chain, the inner part playing around the pin, so preventing the chain from becoming wound up. A .stout leather strap around the horns containing «n iron ring into which the stake chain fastens with a snap. At night when the cow is led to her stall this is snappad out and the stall chain snapped in.—Ohio Farmer.
