if used as a iestle must have been con
tinually changed about by the hand,
but it was probably used in some came,
or iH-rhajis was a toy. Following the
plow again a large mortar was tlirown
141, having a liole in the bottom that
had been literally worn through by con
tinuous grinding. Iu the course of the
afternoon quite a number ot pestles and
mortars and broken lutrts of the same

more pieces in the bush where they had

The vicinity of 1'asadeiia seems to

The Sea.
The teiuitrature of the sea is the
same, van mg only a trifle from the Ice
of the ini!e to the burning sun of the
equator. A mile down the water has a
pressure of over a ton to the square
inch. If a box six feet deep were tilled
with sea water, ami allowed to evanor-
ute under the sun, there would b ; two
inches of salt left 011 the bottom. Tak
ing the average depth of the ocean to
lie three miles, there would Im a lavcr
of pure salt 2M feet thick on the bed" of
the Atlantic. The water is colder at
the bottom tlian at the surface. In the
many bays 011 the coast of Norway the
water often freezes at the "oottom bp
fore it does alwve. Waves are very de
ceptive. To look at them iu a storm
one would think the water traveled.
The water stays in the same place, but
the motion gins on. Sometimes lu
storms these waves are forty feet high,
and travel fifty miles an "hour, more
than twice as fast as the swiftest steam
er. The distance from valley to valley
is generally fifteen times the height
hence a wave live feet bight will ex
tend over seventy-live feet of water.
Evajioration is a wonderful lower iu
drawing the water from the sea. Every
year a layer of the entire sea, fourteen
feet thick, is taken up Into the clouds.
I he wind bears their burden iuto the
land, and the water comes down in
rain upon the fields to flow Imek at last
through rivers. The depth of the sea
presents an interesting pr. Mem. If
the Atlantic were lowered 0,004 feet
the distauce from shore to shore would
be half as great, or l.GOo miles. If
towered a little more than three miles
say 10,080 feet, there would be a road
of dry hind from Newfoundland to Ire
land. This is the place on winch the
.reat Atlantic cables wem laid ti,.
Mediterranean is comparatively slial
low. A do ing up of 000 feet would
leave three distinct seas, and Africa
would be joined with Italv. The Brit
ish Channel is more like a pond, which
accounts for its choppy waves.

fine seed needs only a light covering.

seed are planted very near the surface,
as a rule, the surest plan to secure a
good germination is to press the soil
down upon the seed after covering,
and esoeciallT it the soil is warm and
inclined to drv out. A certain de
cree of moisture and contact with the
soil is essential to secure a good ger
mination, and I find that these condi
tions can be best secured Dy taming
pains to cover lightly. Generally early
planted seeds should be covered lighter

Is sufficiently warm to induce germina
tion or they will rot I never could see
any good economy in having the seed
lie in the ground under unfavorable
conditions and failing to germinate,
even though they do finally. I never
considered that the plants were as
vigorous as If an earlier germination
had been secured. For this reason I
find it the safest and best to make all
the conditions as favorable for ger
mination as possible.
Yield of Grapes From ax Acre.
An acre of vines, inrowssix feet one
way and eight the other, will give in
round numbers 900 vines per acre. In
three years they will average enough
over two pounds per vine to yield a
ton of fruit per acre, and when in full
bearing may be kept at a distance
apart, to an average crop of ten pounds
per vine. This is 'MO pounds, or lour
and a half tons, liven at 2 cents a
pound, for which grapes may be pro
fitably bought for making Into wine,
this would give 11 80 per acre; or far
more, after deducting expenses of
management aud cultivation, than can
be made from ordinal y farm crops.
Don't shut up the turkeys that you
intend for market, for when confined
to close quarters turkeys are more
liable to lose flesh than to gain. Shut
up the rest of the flock and let those

warm cooked vegetables and meal in
the morning, and plenty of corn at
noon and night. If they seem in

The swindle with regard to

which mlan oats lies in the niauner in

itself.
Of this a writer in the A'altonal
Stock-
man says that the oats make a
good
chicken feed, but for horses and cattle,
leed either ground or whole, they are
too rich, as the bull of an oat aids
digestion. The Bohemian cats are
bulless, or should be, to be liko the
original seed. Many horses refuse to
eat them. Those that do are liable to
colic from eating rapidly. They can
no doubt be used to advantage in the
manufacture of oatmeaL
Sueep are less liable to disease than
hogs aud are subject to smaller risks
than cattle. Sheep multiply fast, and
returns come from them quickly. The
lamb dropped in March will brim? a
large price in August. If kept till
the following May it will give a fleece
of wool. The owner of a well-managed
flock of sheep will have wool to
sell in the latter part of spring, lambs
In midsummer and mutton at other
times In the year. In addition to those
he can keep his table supplied with
fresh meat.
Many weeds may be used profitably
as food for bogs The narrow-leaved
plantain i-ossesses nearly the same
nutritive value as timothy, whife
lamb's quarter and pig weed are both
highly relished by swine. It is best
not to allow any weeds to grow; yet
they should ba utilized us much as pos

Germax millet sown and lightly
harrowed in, in the proportion of one
bushel of seed per acre, makes an ex
cellent crop for summer. But it must
be cut as soon as it shall be lu blossom
for if allowed to ripen its seed it will
become bard aud woody. On good
well-manured land it should produce
two tons of hay per acre.
Always turn eggs twico a week if
they are to be kept for future use.
Egg for hatching will keep two or three
weeks if turned half over daily. They
should be in a place of moderate tem

What Is really needed Is some system,
eonld such be devised, by which the
occurrence of those bidden Haws which
the very best metal made by the very best
Drocess will sometimes contain, should
be rendered da lent to the eye of an In
spector. Is there any chance of such a
svstem belnz devised? It is clear that
chemical tests are quite useless; they
can tell nothing but the general com
position of the metaL Electrical tests
mav Dosslbly yet be used with effect.
Thev were proposed some years ago,
and have been revived lately by .Profes
sor Hughes, the inventor of the micro
phone. W itli his beauuiui instrument,
the "magnetic balance," he bas proved

almost all peculiarities of the metal.
Including the existence of flaws, can be
detected with ease and certainty. Ills
Invention bas been freely given to the
world, but hitherto the world (as usual )
has been wholly lndlllerent to me gut.
So tax as we are aware, no railway or
marine engineer bas taken any steps
with a view to ascertain whether a
similar system might not be applied to
pieces of large size, such as those re
quired in actual work. Falling in this,
mechanical tests in a proper testing
machine do not seem impossible. If the
axle which broke at l'enlstone, before
having been set to work, had been sub
jected to a sudden cross-breaking
strain, similar to that which caused its
destruction, but very much below what
it should be able to support with safety.
we cannot doubt that the resulting de
flection or bending would have been far
greater than if the axle had been sound.
hat we would suggest, therefore, is
that all crank axles, or other pieces of
metal called to till equally important
positions, should be tested by strains
similar to those brought upon them in
actual work, and that their deflection
under those strains should be recorded.
A few experiments would be sufficient
to show bow great this deflection should
be in the case of a sound and perfect
axle; and if any sieclmen showed a de
flection decidedly higher than the limit.
should be rejected as a doubtful
quality. The expense of such a system
would not be great when It once became
a regular part of the manufacture of an
axle; aud it appears to us the only
method by which a single faulty speci.
men can be weeded out from a batch f
sound and satisfactory articles.
Iron Is now rendered highly orna
mental by cooling it with aluminum.
in the same way as iron plates are now
tinned and converted into tin plates.
This process is due to the Ingenuity of
Dr. G eh ring of Germany, who uses for
the purpose a Bunsen burner with a
blast or a muflie, and Is thus able to
manufacture various articles of the
