LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE.
There is such a demand for parks, ceme
teries, and gardens, that a profession of
Landscape Architecture" has arieen to
rive advice in these matters. Judging by
the finished product, there ` exiat's: inf the,
p rofession an axiom to this effect—all paths
and water-lines must meander. To the
culCar mind this is by no means ,self-evi
dent, and we have, therefore, thought it
not uninstructive to recall the scientific
basis of the doctrine. Brooks and water
courses,. in general, are apt - to meander,
though it is not,without example that they
,ro tolerably straight., —An Alpine road
winds up the side of the mountain. The
brook seeks always to go down, and it ac;
e epts a descent& whatever:direction itidFirt
Ural one. The mountain, road, endeagars
to surmount a steep height gradyally, and
w inds about the mountain -side-seallig for
moderate grades, such as men and beasts
can ascend and descend with ease. Differ
ences of level are thus Ail 0 9 ,46,4- o. g . d e ti c k is
water-lines, and a justification of windinc ,
paths and roads.
Across a level meadow the cow-path
never goes straight; ihough the general
direction of the path be telerablk,Straight,
yet it is full.of ,little,benda,.and;olight de
partures from the direct
,c„oturse. 'Looking
to the cause of these deviations from the.
shortest path to, the bars which will , :be
dropped for her at evening, it will be found
that the cow set her foot aside to avoid a
hummock, or rounded aivhortleberiy-bushl
or steered clear of 'a ..rock or. a mud hole.
Herein is to be found the second natural
and sufficient justification of curved roads
and paths ; the avoidance of otstacles,
small or great, bushes or forests, betilders
or mountains, is a prime cause•of windings;
and demands., the _best skill ,of the prefes
sional engineer., It is as short, and vastly
easier to go round the hill as to go over it ;
the old turnpike, stretching away straight!
over hill and valley, was as stupid a con-;
tiivance as:ever made progress diffioult.
A third cause of curved, paths
fbund in the, frequent necessity of changing
direction, which the narrow limits ofliarks
and gardens often impose upon. thoseriho
design the walks and drives. For chang
ing directilin ohrve 'is, PdaiNtlesi,' , ..tabre:
graceful than a sharp angle ; nature rounds'
her corners, exceptin„crystals."' 'T);iikthird
cause is really but -a, special case of the',
second ; the' park 'fence is the obstacle to
.
be avoided. ,
In a very few of 'the best piiblie'iitirks.
and gardens in this country these princi-'
pies find 'perfect illustiation,lbutin the vast
majority of public and private pleasure
grounds they' are utterly , 'disregatded.
Who has not, found himself:impatiently
following gravel s's over an absolutely level,
and unobstructed field of grass ? Who has
not seen with disgust, scallop-edged, tanks
cut out of i'grassy, 'Slain as flat as abarn- 1
floor, and provided With curVstOries
the water in r, Such tanks are, rnore'like
washtubs than nature's ponds. Such art
mocks natute.*" ' '
In promenading, as in more serious
matters, the pleasure, naen.thice--in*vious
ways is quite destroyed if all the world can
plainly see how devious they are.l . The
fact is that a genuine Yankee, even if he
be pushing a feminine left elbow in the
hollow of his right, seeillwith , impatience
that he has walked a hundred-feet fo ad
vance ten, or -that the' path he follows
wriggles like a snake along theunobstrubt
ed turf.
But, must all paths be straight ?' Must,
we drive on alleys whose tiresome perspec-'
rive suggests fatigue ? By no, means. But'
landscape architects" must justify their
curves by manulactured, it there be,,no
natural, differences of level, and b?arti
ticial obstacles, like planted shrubbery and,
trees, it . nature's woods and underbrush and
rocks be lacking.
~A slight, curvature,,no
greater than the width of the fith, con
ceals the • distant way as well'as half a cir
cle, and long sweeps and gentle curves are
much more natural than u's and s's. Above
all, water-boundaries should be determined
solely by the varying level of the surround
ing land; and the edges of artificial ponds
should invariably be sloping, and made of
:and, gravel, or pebble's, never of masonry.
An arch or a stone bridge is a fine feature
in a landscape; yet 1 0176 do *WNW a's'eides
of arched bridges across an . urebrbken
simply in order to meander up and down,
after the mauner, of the mythipat,
pent. Horizontal meandering,wilhout due
cause, is quite as absurd. —The :Nation.

SOURCES OF NITROGEN;
But.vvhat is. the... source of nitrogen in
turf? The general opinion is, that carba
retted hydrogen gas is formed,' of vhich
the hydrogen unites itself with the nitrogen
of the air so as to form ammonia. This,
however ; is contradicted, by Ithe nitrogen
not being present in the-turf itself in the
form of ammonia, which is only formed by
the dry distillation of animal substances.
This shows that the nitrogen in the turf.
must be in the•same condition' a's it is in
animal substances, as for instance in born,
bones, albumen and meat. In fact 3 ,it can
be proved that the nitrogen_ of the turf
really originates from animal bodies r whiph
live or have lived therein, and- of such
traces are to be found in the turf. The
classes of infusoria, poly.peS,i worms, IMolus
ca, crustacea and. insects 4arel..best mpre
tented, which through their bulky devAop
ment produce the nitrogen in turCpits' had
in turf' itself. . .• \x
•
Turf manure does not act as quiCkl) .
as
stable manure, because it decomposes mare
slowly, but it thereby becomes more effica,
dons.
Liebig affirms that turf eat Only be Con
sidered as a manure fur plants; if plAispbat
of lime be mixed up with it. But; as turf
contains in itself a sufficient quantitiof
this substance, I need hardly say'ode
Liebig's opinion cannot 15 upheld in prac
tice. My experimehts in adding bonedust
to the turf have not given any better results
than by, using turf alone.
Manuring with humus in general, and
mantkring with turf and decayed vegetable
substances in particular, show irrefutably
that the food of plants forms a simple sub
stance, which is represented in the gases
at'bumus—carbon, hydrogen and nitogen—

and that the plant diies not need to procure
the carbon and nitrogen from different
sources, and to compose only the food out
of the elementary substances.--Prof SYchui

MARKING SHEEP.
The advantage of having every sheep in
the flock marked with
,plain ,figures; such
as can be easily reads even across.a common
sheep-yard, are too &Hone to every one; o
need any argument in its favor. The 'best
materials for marking we have ever used
are red lead and pure Japan. This mixture
will .work equally, well whether you ;use
iron or wooden types. Many try Venetian
red, which looks very well at first, - but - it,
soon rubs , eff,..,and,the figure's become ob- 1
scure. Others, again, when -using Japan;
mix boiled linseed oil with it, but this is
wholly,-unnecessary. - :The. ;lead, mixes no
better with it than , the Xepen,liid as the
latter dries more quickly, the number is
not 44 liVelk, to get illibeVegdiAlprred..
The best dish to , mix them in is an old-1

INIAITJFACTUILERS. AND PATENVIUMITS
Although the subject of patent-right
does- not; : striotly §pgaking, ,the
„scope of Dr. -Peroy's work, lie,„eaupotAyoid
coming across;it, from time,,to, *lf ' ) in de

manufacture of metals to which recent in
ventions , have given; birth:, lfantifaool
as: .a rule, dislike ,scheiners. ;;"The
Lord deliver me," said one ironmaster fer
vently, "from 'thi's restleis'`an `;mischief'
making race'!" So manufaBhirers
are • carrying on a prosperous trade,, they
have no desire for ,new inventions, which,
if successful, only have the.effect of (Com
pelling them to iitroduce Alterations in
their machinery ac.d" ite, l iv modes of manu
facture, for the purpoie Of meeting the com
petition which th r iy-stiniplate. Manufac

for the royalties payikble . to them under
their patents, aro -- ,thinkt,,,hard that they
should be debarred from freely adopting,
without any: such' restrietihn, the best
methods whibh . have - been 'discovered for
producing the.;largest quantity of metal in
the shortest itimelind at the, lowest,-price.
They consider 'patents not 'only an 'annoy
ance !and obstfuction, but the cause of a
dimidution in their` 'which, of
course,:ithey very - Via object..
Engineers, 'also; are often found declaim
ing against patenla for the same reason, and
the latellkr : 1:!rtioel enunciated the' s ,opinion
that when • a workman broUght -forward a
new invention or improvement inmachinery
worthy of adoptima, if he was paid a sove
reign or so for' his trouble, it was reward
enough. One wealthy iron:manufacturer
t
coolly declared to DriliPe el that'" brains
are 'more" abundant in nth 1 Fld than hapi
tal„and ought, therefore; .etaikeheap."
Hence the resistance : which has so, often
been offered, first, to the introduction lof
inventions,- and nett to the paymenrof roy
alty to the inventors when their use has
become indispeiisable: :Mr - Crairshiy,: the
iron potentate; of South Wales, resisted the

inv• ntor, was` prejudicial not only to their
indA p '•idual interests but to the interests of
the üblic at large.
Such, also, is Sir William Armstrong's
view of the inexpediency of patent rights,
as quAel.:.b3e - Dr. Percy : "That dauntless
