In the dry and elevated valleys and
basins of t!ie Iloeky Mountain.- and of
the Cordilleras of .Mexico the phenom
ena of t!i! whirlwind are actively ex
iuhifd. "In the deep hnsirs of Mex
i i.'.wA Ii of. J. W. Phelps, "where
there i no prevailing current of air,
v. hiil ivin !s ir.ay he been in the wanner
hour .f the hiy, spinning spirally on
their -ixes, throwing up large columns
of (l.i-t several hundred feet in height,
and mmi'mina; as stationary as the
sleeping top for a long time. Further
north, in the Ilocky Mountains, where
the southwest breezes prevail, these
whirlwinds me generally borr.e along
with the win I. The rapidity of the
v, hiding motion, in Loth cases, is al
together too great to be attributed to
a p.wer short of electrical agency.
The air outside of a stationary whirl
wind is generally quite still, while with
the moving whirlwind it often loiters
along ot.l v as a 5, 10 or 15 mile breeze.
Thus while the motion of transition of
the whirlwind may be oi ly 10 miles or
bo a:i hour, its whirling velocity is often
100 miles or more an hour."
The general form of these whirlwind.-
observed by Prof. Phelps was
of a tube of dust, of from 1 to 20 feet
in diameter, and several feet in height.
They weie generally pt rpendicular, al
though one was noticed to ascend in a
zigz.ig direction, and another, mount
ing vertically for a short distance,
moved horizontally for a space and
then assumed a vertical course again.
The motions of the whirlwinds were
sometimes with the hands of the watch,
and at other times in an opposite di
rection. From the journal kept by
Prof. Phelps wc read that. July 10,
1S5!, a whirlwind threw up the sand
in a hollow tube 2 to .'i feet in diame
ter, and moved icith the hands of the
watch. Twice rings or nodules of
tist were noticed whirling up the
tule, and once portions of cust were
spun otf from the exterior of tlic cylin
der as if by a downward breeze.
Aug. l:, the whirlwinds were numer
ous, and seemed to leap suddenly into
the air from a state of perfect stillness.
They formed smalt, crooked tubes ris
ing to the height of several hundred
feet. April Is, lso'.), a whirlwind 20
feet in diameter was observed turning
a-i unst the hands of the watch. On
one occasion a newspaper was caught
up by a whirlwind to a height of about
200 feet, and there oscillated back
and forth across the track for some
time while accompanying the onward
movement of the column. Another;
day two whirlwinds, within, 50 yards
of each other, were turning in opposite
directions. June 5, a whirlwind about
15 feet in diameter crossed a stream ot
water without any apparent loss of
force. Again, a whirlwind was ob
served to pass through a battery of
artillery of brass guns, from one flank
to the other with no evidence of being
adW-ted by the adventure. June 10,
a whirlwind was remarked that had
several sui:dl whirls spinning around
on its ciicuinference. The whole to
gether described a circuit about 100
yards across. These phenomena oc
curred at a height of between 4,000
and 5.000 feet above the. sea, where the
dry atmosphere contained little vapor
to interfere with the action of elec
tricity. A New Food for Houses AM)
Siiki-:.. A favorite and rather a new
kbid of mush is now coming into use
for horses, composed of two quarts of
oats, one of bran and half a pint of
tlax seed. The oats are first placed in
a stable bucket, over which is placed
the linseed. Add boiling water, then
the bran, cover the mixture with an
old rug, and allow it to rest for five
hours; then stir the mass well up.
The bran absorbs while retaining the
vapor, and the linseed binds the oats
ai.d bran together. A greater quanti
ty ot tlax seed would make the pre
paration more oily and less relished.
One feed h-v day is sufficient. It is
easily digestible and specially adapted
to young animals, adding to their
volume rather than their height, giv
ing substaii'-e to the frame. Professor
.Samson reminds us not to forget the
food, the nourishment question, in
connection with the amelioration of
live stock. I le considers oats, as zcn-
erallv given to sheep, as objectionable ;

Kams generally receive one pound of
oats daily, ewes half that quantity.
Oats, being an exciting food, are es
pecially suited for rams during the
season when they serve; but for has
tening; the development cf young sheep
they only build up the bones, not the
llesh.

have a tlorid complexion and are much

washes are not only harmless but very
much the lcst of anything we kno,v.
Orate horse-radish fine, let it stand a
few hours in buttermilk, then strain
and use the wash night ami morning.
Or, squeeze the juice of a lemon into a
half goblet of water and use the same
way. Most of the remedies used for
freckles are poisonous, and cannot be
used with safety. Freckles indicate a
defect in digestion, and consist of de
posits of some carbon aceous or fatty
matter lieneath tfie scarf skin. The
diet should be attended to, and should
be ot a nature that the bowels and
kidneys will do their duty. Daily
bathing, with much friction, should
not be neglected, and the Turkish bath
taken occasionally if it is convenient.

THE RATTAN MANUJTACIUEE
Rattan comes from the Moluccas prlfl
tipaily from Singnpore, Tedang, Penang,
Samarang and St. Simon's Bay. Of all tho
rattan collected in the East, the United
States consumes three quarters of the total
product, the imports amounting now to
something more than 6,1)00,000 pounds.
There are rattans and rattans, and no less
than ten different grades can be found,
which vary in price from two cents np to
ten cents a pound. The 6rst quality should
be of a bright color, of a straw yellow : but,
in addition, must be supple, and not
"sticky, " a trade-word, meaning dull and
wanting in elasticity. It requires a great
deal of experience to decide what is good
rattan, or the kinds which will work up
best for practiculorsoru of go d-. The ery
choicest rattan comes from Besjani asking.
Both outside and inside have their special
uses. The Calamus Rotang belongs to
that peculiar species of palm which Secretes
in its cuticle a very considerable amount of
silica, while its inside is made up of tough
and fibrous filaments. The outside, with
the smooth natural varnish, when stripped
off by. particular machinery, is used for
seating chairs, There is a single factory in
the United States which turns out daily
enough chair-cane to cover 20,000 chairs.
The inside of the rattan is employed in a
variety of ways. It is shaped by machinery
either round or flat, and so worked up into
innumerable articles. Biskets, brooms,
mats, matting, are all made from the inside
of the rattan, and an iintncnce quantity of
it is worked around demijohns. Both the
inside and outside of the rattan are employed
in the manufacture of furniture. This
branch of industry we have undoubtedly
copied with Chinese accuracy from India.
Perhaps even with the addition of our num
rous mechanical helps we have but very
little improved on the models as to appear
ance or solidity. There is an exquisite com
fort, a luxurious ease, about a real rattan
chaise lounge, such as is made at Singapore,
that we can hardly equal. Split rattan is
made up into some half dozen different sizes,
and is then sold by the 1,000 feet. The
finest qualities of rattan are also used by
whip-makers. This large and constantly
increasing business may be estimated by the
fact that one factory in New England alone
employs 1,(K)0 operative--, and that the total
number of people working in rattan (the
schoolmasters excluded) is fully I8tK. The
capital used in the manufacture of rattan
we are informed, w about $2,000,000.
A NEW FAT AND A NKW SOURCE OF
BORAX,
In the course of a new work recently
written by Mr. Arthur Robottom, of Bir
mingham, Eng., entitled "A Visit to Strange
Countries ii Search of New Products," the
author describes the curious "mutton birds"
of the Pacific coast and islands. These
birds burrcw in the ground like rabbits,
and are remarkable for their fat, which, the
writer thinks, might be rendered available
for lubricating purposes, inasmuch as it has
a viscosity approaching to that of the oil
which is found in the head of the sperm
aceti whale. The present scarcity, and
high value of sperm oil gives gTeat import
ance to any kind of oil or fat which can
take its place for the lubrication of cotton
spindles and like motions; and hence it is
believed that the fat of the mutton bird
should be carefully tested for that pur
pose. The same author mentions a canon
in Southern California, which leads the
traveller to the bed of an ancient lake. On
this bed is a marvelous deposit of borax,
several feet in depth. The salt is found in
huge crystals, some as large as a man's fist,
and is of remarkable purity. The locality
Is known as Death's Valley, and some of the
borax gathered there has already found its
way to the markets. A greater export
would be made if the road between the de
posit and the coast offered better facilities
for transportation
A LION SIORV.
A story is told of a lion which was bit ught
from India, and who on the passage grew
very fond of a yailor who had charge of him.
His name was "Nero." On being shut up
in a cage in London, he grew sulky, and
was very fierce when any one came near him,
so that it was dangerous even for his keeper
to approach hitn.
One day, a few weeks after Nero bad been
shut up in his new prison, a party of sailors
visited the menagerie, and were warned by
the keeper not to go near the lion, who evry
now and then growled savagely at those who
were looking at him. All at once one
of these sailors ran up to the cage, and
thrusting in his hand, cried out, What!
old shipmate! don't you know me? What
cheer, old Nero, my lad ?"
The lion instantly left off feeding and
growling, sprang up to the bars of the cage,
and put out his nose between them. Jack
patted him on the head, and the lion rubbed
his hand with his whiskers like a cat, show
ing evident signs of pleasure.
"Ah!" said Jack, turning to the keeper
and spectators, who stood frightened and in
astonishment, "Nero and I were once ship
mates, and you see he isn't like some folks ;
he don't forget an old friend."
BALUMIMNO.
The following practical hints on balloon
ing are published by Donaldson, the aero
naut, in a little paper called the .ASrial:
The lifting strain of a balloon is princi
pally on the net. It a balloon will stand
inflation, it is safe in mid-air. In winter the
atmosphere is warmer one mile above the
clouds than It is at tha earth's surface.
The weight of a balloon to carry one man,
including net and basket, should not exceed
80 pounds. A cotton balloon will last for
about sixty ascensions. A balloon thirty
feet in diameter undergoes a strain of 1J
pounds to the square foot of surface. Gas,
which at the earth fills the bag only half
full, will, at an elevation of 3) miles expand
bo as to fill it completely. One thousand
feet of coal gas will raise S8 pounds. Gas
which gives a poor light is the best for aero
statics. Kites can be used to steer balloons
by sending them up or lowering them into
currents of air travelling in diffe:-ent dir
ections from tbt in which the balloon u
