Little Is Urderstood of Insect Migration There is, of course, a great deal that we do not know. In the final analysis, “all things go out into mystery,” and your most dry-as-dust professor isleft at the counter of his laboratory with his mouth open and his short-sighted eyes raised in a childish query. Still, he has detected law and order and reagonableness, and the succession of cause and effect in many branches of blology, including bird migration. It is not so with insect migration, which may be on a big scale. This remaing a thorough-going miracle, sttt quite unplumbed. In England we entertaln quite a constderable number of butterfiies from overseas, though their ‘arrival or passage over the sea is rarely observed. But such littie flights of & hundred miles or go are as nothing compared with some recent exAamples, Butterflies will fiy 8,000 miles on occasion. That lovely creature—not so common here as we could wish—the painted lady, has appeared in Iceland at the end of a journey—so it is credibly alleged—from Africa! Quite large groups of white butterfiles have settled on ships in the Medlterranean, on their way from south to porth. 8o Africa certainly exchanges insects with Europe.—Sir W. Beach Thomas In the Outlook.

Railroads Can Dispute _ Claims to Precedence ‘There probably will be all sorts of rivalries and disputes in the near future over the question of precedence among American raflroads, just as there were a few years ago over the date and identity of the first steamboat. It seems not unlikely that the honor will have to be divided and distributed according to the interpretation of the term. The first road on which vehicles ran on rails was perh;.g: that on Beacon hill, in Boston, in 1807. The first road to employ steam power seems to have been the 27-mile stretch built by the Delaware & Hudson Canal company fn 1827 from Honesdale to Oarbondale, Pa.. The first road to carry passengers was probably the Baltimore & Ohlo, which in May, 1880, began running from Bal~ time to Ellicott's mill, 15 miles, by horse power. : - Famous Obelisk

The obelisk in Central park, New York, is thirty-five centuries old. As the Standard Guide to New York pemarks: “It was old when Moses read its inscriptions in honor of the BEgyptian sun god.” It stood before the temple of the Sun at Hellopolis, near Oafro, where it was erected in the Sixteenth century B. C. by Thothmes 111. In twelve B. C. Augustus Cuaesar carried the obelisk to Alexandria. Here it and two others were erected before the temple of the Caesars. In 1877 it was presented by the khedive ~of Egypt to the United States, and brought to America by LieutenantCommander Gorringe, U. 8. N. It was erected in Central park in 1881, Willlam H. Vanderbilt bore the expense of removal, which was $102,676. The obellsk s a monolite of syenite from the granite quarries of Syene, Egypt. The shaft is 69% feet high, 7-feet 9 inches by 7 feet 814 inches gt the base and welighs 448,000 pounds, | - For Sale ? 7 incubators, 4 brooder houses, brooder stoves, very fine 10 aguge double barrel shot gun, extra fine new Kentucky saddle, fur overcoat like new, Myre Power sprayer on trucks never used, orchard disc good as new.
