Venturesome Explorers of Grand Cln=l yon of the Colorado in Con- | stant Danger. “Every vear the river and the Grand Canyon of the Colorado take ‘their toll in human life,” recently said Frederfek S. Dellenbaugh, the artist-scholar, who has painted pictures and written books about that wonderful river that rushes for hundreds of miles through gorges hundreds of feet deep. “When 1 was with Major Powell on his exploring expedition through the Grand canyon 40 years ago we lost several men, and the few other expeditions that have followed ours since then all have had to pay the river the price in the same way,” he continued. “Powell’'s party was the first journey white men ever made down through that perilous portion of the Colorado river, and almost every day of the many months it took us was full of danger.

No ons knows what immeasurable mineral wealth is hidden in the canyon walls, and every year venturesome prospectors go into those gloomy depths seeking the treasures that they guard. These men, through some sudien rise cf water or for some other reason, frequently lose their lives in trying ta escape from the canvon. Most of them, I fancy, g 0 mad with hunger and ‘die in trying to scale the prect pices.

There are varfous methods of keeping track of the corn heing tested, but a very convenient way has been suggested Ly a correspondent of a ' farm journal, whose plan is as follows: Make a strong box about three inches deep and long and wide epnough to fit under the kitchen stove. Then take plastering laths and make a lattice work like the sections of an egg crate, —l4 rows with 22 sections in a row. 1 sift and mosten some soil or sand and fill up these sections evenly, slightly packing it down. On one section I place three kernels from different parts of one ear. Repeat with other ears and sections until one row of sections is full,—carefully laying the ears somewhere in & row to correspond with the sections. (I put four or five rows of ears on top of each other by laying strips of old olicloth bétween the rows to keep the ears in place After the rows of sections are all full and the kernels are slightly pressed ~down into the soil, I lay on a tightly ‘stretched, wet cloth, being careful not to disturb the kernels. On this I lay another cloth, and cover the latter with soil about half an- inch deep, packing it down carefully all around to exclude air. For the sake of cleanliness I put another cloth on top; and sprinkle water on this,—about two quarts daily. Our stove is not equally warm all around, so I turn the box each day. In five or six days the corn will have sprouted sufficiently to see what. it will do, and you can easily see which ears to throw out '

Look after the pear tree closely it it does not appear thrifty, If its leaves are covered with small biack dota, the cause is not always blight. Sometimes the trouble is caused by a small parasite which is known as the pearleaf blister-mite, says W. E. Britton. The l.atin name is Eriophyes pyri, and the pest is related to the common red spider and other mites . attacking plants. This mite burrows the leat when it first unfolds, and causes thae peculiar gall-like swellings to appear. These turn a brilliant red color, but as the leaves mature the color dis. uppears somewhat, and the spots finalIy assume a rusty brown or black-ap-pearance. After the leaves appear there is almost nothing that can be done in the way of treatment, but a thorough spraying of the tree when dormant, especially in late fall or ecarly spring just before the leaves appear, using either the lime-sulphur mixture or one of the “soluble oils” such ag are used to destroy the Sax Jose scale, will destroy the mites. i

Littie Essay on Man. Be not surprised, oh, wondering and gentle wife, because the eminent, high and mighty husband man blames you for everything that happens. Should the north wind blow down the chimney or blow the chbimney down, be prepared to confess that it was -all your doing. The only way to treat a man is -with a laugh. And why shouldn’t we, gince men are quite the funniest creatures on the face of the earth? Many of them feel that they must roar and fuss and fume lest we forget their magnificence and greatness and superiority. Joke, isn't it?— Exchange. :
Tact Wins the Customer. A clerk in a department store had before him a woman no longer young. She was looking over some colors and was undecided. The salesman knew his business and knew human nature, too. Smilingly addressing the woman, he inquired: *“Madam, is it for yourself or an old lady.” He sold the goods and gained the customer's good opinion.
