A lino for Liquefied Air.
It is reported that a new use has
been found for liquefied air, the possi
bilities cf which have been matters of
discussion among scientific men for
some time. According to the Mining
Reporter, a discovery was made recent
ly by which it Is now practical to use
liquefied air in underground work, such
as mining, driving tunnels and sinking
shafts. It is said that under proper
conditions the liberation of air from
tho liquid can be effective in generat
ing power with which to run drills un
der ground, pumps, hoists, etc., while
cool air can also be supplied in tlio
deepest mines. The liquid air can al
so be used in freezing soft ground,
making tunnel cutting less hazardous
and tedious. If thero is any reliabil
ity In this reported discovery, and itfl
success can be practically demonstrat
ed, It will make a new departure in tho
lines of work named, and once again
make the genius of science the soul of
Industrial progress.
THE I)UTY OF MOTHERS.
Daughters Should bo Carefully
Guided In Early Womanhood.
What suffering frequently results
from a mother's ignorance; or more
frequently from a mother's neglect to
properly instruct her daughter!
Tradition says "woman must suffer,"
and young women aro so taught.
There is a little truth and a great deal
of exaggeration in this. If a young
woman suffers severely sho needs
treatment and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to a physician for examina
tion; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about, her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and securo
the most efficient advico without
charge. Mrs. Pinlcham's address is
Lynn, Mass.
The following letter from Miss MARIE
F. JonnsoN, Centralia, Pa., shows what
neglect will do, and tells how Mrs.
Pinkham helped her:
"My health became so poor that I
had to leave school. I was tired all tho
time, and had dreadful pains in my
side and back. I was also troubled
with irregularity of menses I was
very weak, and lost so much sh that

Also give ths source from which it
was gathered. One or more varieties

Improving Pastures.
If there is any one part of tho farm
that is neglected it is the pasturo
fields. While thero may be some lit
tle excuse for this on large grain
farms, it can bo hardly overlooked on
a dairy farm, where grass and green
pasture aro tho chief dependencies for
success. The improvement of pasture
fields is a crying ucod on many old
places. As a rule, the roughest and
most aterilo fields are given over to
pastures, and it is not giving a cow a
fair show to mako her pick up a living
on land that would not produc 3 any
thing else. This is often the case,
however, and then wo blame tho cow
for not giving more milk. Half tho
fault against our dairy caws can bo
traced to improper feeding. Because
a cow lias a large field or meadow to
graze in it doss not follow that sho
ought to give a large flow of milk. A
much smaller pioct of laud would pro
duce rnuoli hotter results if tho pas
ture was rich and well cared for.
It is all right to gives tho cows for
pasturo tho roughest and rockiest part
of tho farm, for naturally one does not
select that portiou for plowing under
crops. But it is t'eo part of wisdom
to bestow a little earo upon such fields,
to improve them cash year. A few
days' labor devoted to tho pasturo
fields cvory season will surprise the
owner iu the results five years later.
First, there are rocks and stones that
can bo gradually carried off tho field
and piled up. Clearing the pasture field
in this leisurely way will yield its re
ward some day when it is found de
sirn'olo to cultivato the meadows or
hillsido for orchard or field crops.
Along with this work should go that
of clearing the land of wild berry
bushes, brush, roots and weeds. The
roots once takon np will kill tho
bushes and trees for good, and so with
ths weeds. Bee that they aro rooted
Up, and not simply cut off. Noxious
weeds prevent grass plants from grow
ing, and generally they harbor para
sites and rusts of grain, which may
spread to tho cultivated fields any day
and do a great amount of damage.
This work of clearing tho pastures of
foreign growths is important nt this
season ol the year, wkon weeds are
n'oout to produce their seeds. One
plant destroyed, root and branch, now
may prevent the growth of fifty next
summer. So it is wise to begin at
once, for every year that the work is
postponed tho pasturo field degen
erates much more.
While ongagod in tlii3 work of de
struction it might bo well to recon
struct, too. Plant a few shade trees
in the most cdnvenient part of the
field, and if necessary for thoir protec
tion fence them in until they attain a
good growth.* l ? Years later tlioy will be
appreciated by both man and beast.
When tho weeds aro aro pretty well
rooted out it will pay to sow tho field
in the fall with grass seed, spreading
it thinly around, to reinforce the old
grass.—lndiana Farmer.
Tho Self-Sucking Cow.
Of all the nuisances on tlie farm
a self-sucking cow is by far tlie most
despicable. Consequently, the best
way to serve such an animal is to dis
pose of her to the best advantage pos
sible, and the sooner tho better, for
once this bad habit is aoquired it can
rarely, if ever, be cured.
Still, if the cow is an especially val
uable one, it is a pity to disposo of
her, nor is there any need of it. Why?
Because by simply using a milk muz
zle on her, such as is represented in
It * 11
A MILK MUZZLE.
the accompanying cut, she may bo
prevented from "draining" herself,
and that in such away as to cause
her very little inconvenience.
To make this muzzle take a piece of
board (soft wood) about five by six
inches and hollow the upper part out
as shown, leaving the opening be
tween tho two tongues about half au
inch wide. Bound off these tongues
nicely, so that they will not hurt the
eow, for these are tho parts that are
to bo inserted into her nose; then,
having driven four wirs nails into the
wood (indicated by tho dotted lines) to
prevent splittiug, hook one of the
tongues into tho animal's nostrils and
work the ninzzle edgewise through
tho space, so that tho opposite tongue
comes into the other nostril like a nose
ring. What nre the results? Why,
in this position tho board bangs down
in front of tbo cow's mouth, and while
it doei not prevent her eating, aud
eating freoly, the moment she at
tempts to "bait" whero sho ought not
her efforts are frustrated. Thus it is
that many regard this as the most prac
tical way of muzzling a self-sucking
cow. —New York Tribuw*.
Coal Aslies For Foiatoef.
Wo have heard of some farmers
who applied a small handful of coal
ashes in the hill before planting their
seed potatoes, taking care to let the
seed come in contact with the ashes.
Their potatoes thus treated were free
from rot and scab, while others in the
neighborhood were very badly affected
by disease. Tho farmer who tried
this is enthusiastic over his success,
and proposes to apply coal ashes in
the hill to as many potatoes as he can
secure the ashes for. Bist one experi
ment, oven though so satisfactory as
this, is not conclusive. There may
have been a difference iu timo of
planting or of soil which would have
saved theso potatoes from rotting any
way. It would have been more satis
factory if a group of four or eight
hills were ashed, and eomo adjoiniug
them wore at tho same time planted
without the ashes.
As wo have often explained, there
is very little if any mauurial value in
coal ashes. So far as increasing the
potato crop is concerned coal ashes
are useless. But the very fact that
tho coal ashes have no mauurial value
may beau advantage in growing pota
toes free from rot. Iu contact with
thi3 material, free from manures, if
thero wore germs on the seed potato
that might extend and causo rot they
would be isolated, aud thus the new
crop could bo grown free from rot. All
farmers know that to put slabla man
ure in contact with tho potato would
either make the soil around tho seed
too dry, or in a rainy season it would
furnish the best bresdiug place for
the rot fungus. In fact, stable man
ure plowed under the sauio season is
not now considered a safo practice
i among farmers who are experienced
Jin growing potatoes. It is much bet
| tor to manure tbo ground a year or
| two before, and so give the manure
j time to ferment aud disappear, leav
j iug only its condensed nitrogenous
aud mineral fertility iu the soil.
Iu ono way wo think that in a we.
season, i.s it was while the potato crop
was growing this past summer, the
conl ashes may provo abeqelit. They
help to dry out the hill. So too will
superphosphate of lime, especially
that mado with a little excess of
sulphurio acid, as most of it is. We
I havo known farmers to use a very
| little phosphate in the hill with
I potato seed, but iu this coco taking
i care not to havo it come iu contact
j with the cut surface, which it would
soon oat into and destroy. Potatoes
I Cans treated were free from rot, while
| those beside them not pbosphntad in
tho hill were half rotten. Iu this
case we attributed the good effect to
tho drying of tho soil in the hill. We
can imagine that coal ashes being
inert themselves must havo operated
to mako tho soil more dry inside the
hill during tho very wet weather early
in the season. Even when the cTty
weather came this dryness iu tho
ceutre of tho hill whero tho potatoes
form is an advantage, for most of the
potato roots that supply moisture have
by this timo extended to the middle
of the rows.—American Cultivator,

ALASKA'S Mfl RESOURCES I
GREAT POSSIBILITIES THERE IN THE
LINE Or ACRICULTURE.
1 THIIC Wltll Ur. Walker Evans Who
Was Commissioned by Congress to Sur
vey the Climate, Soils ami Ecouoinla
I'lunts of Our Glacial Possession,
The most interesting traveler wlio
has lately returned from our Arctic
possessions is Dr. Walter Evans,soma
time ago commissioned under special
act of Congress to survey the climate,
soils and economic plants of Alaska.
A. great part of time his sole compan
ion was Special Agent Bail, sent this
year to established Weather Bureau
stations in the Territory. The greater
part of the doctor's camping was done
at Kussilof, considerably north on
Cook's Inlet.
Dr. Evans believes that much oftha
agricultural activity of Norway, Swe
den, Finland, Scotland, Iceland and
the Orkney Islands may be success
fully reproduced in portions of Alaska.
The climates, soils and topography of
all the regions named are similar. The
southwestern portion will offer good
facilities for stock raising. The only
drawback will be the providing of win
ter forage. In summer there are vast
areas here of grass nearly as high as a
man's head. In the interior tho win
ters are colder and the summers hot
ter. In the lower Yukon region nu
merous gardens have already been es
tablished, especially by missionaries.
The commercial companies have
raised good vegetables along the Yu
kon further east than Circle City and
near tho Canadian boundary. Two
years ago three thousand pounds of
turnips were raised by a woodman
near Circle City. A largo vegetable
garden has been established opposite
Dawson, in the Klondike region.
Tho white Alaskans now live mostly
on potatoes, turnips, cabbagos, let
tuce, peas, radial)es and rutabagas, as
far as vegetables are concerned. The
natives raise little else than potatoes,
rutakagas, turnips and sometimes
onions. They gather salmon berries,
huckleberries, cranberries, currants
and raspberries, and preservo them in
seal oil. Tho Thliukets cultivate a
plarft which they call "koo," dry its
underground bulbs and grind them
into powder for making a sort of cake.
They also eat the roots of the wild
parsnip weed, and drink a sort of tea
made from the leaves of another wild
plant. They also relish skunk cab
bage, among other weeds, as a pot
herb. Tho leaf stocks of the plant
Ileracleum Lanatn'm are peeled and
chewed at irrogular intervals, taking
the place of our peanuts or foods eaten
more for pleasure than nutrition. Un
less this luxury is well peeled tho
mouth becomes very sore from the
hairs which, tho doctor says, cover the
entire stem.
A very popular food of tho natives
is known as "thlaknsk." It is mado
from a marine alga which grows on
kelp. Aftor storms or very high tides
large quantities are collected and pre
served. It i 3 highly esteemed for
stomach disorders, and is similar to
the "Bloke," "slokan" or "laver"used
in the North of Ireland. Tho root of
sjjuuk cabbie also has a high reputa
tion as a domestio medicine, as well as
the backbean. Dr. Evans believes
that the use of native plants by the
Alaskans has greatly diminished since
the advent of the whites. The flour,
sugar and other prepared food ma
terials of the latter now mostly sup
plement the native diet of fish, seal
oil and meat.
The natural timber of Alaska, the
doetor says, is sufficient to supply the
Territory for all the time to come, if
properly managed. The native grasses
are especially valuable.
Tho Alaskans now pursue tho same
methods of agriculture throughout tho
whole Territory. Tho gardous every
where appear neglected. Those of the
whites are often no better than thoso
of the natives. A crop onco planted
with great pains is allowed to care for
itself. Tho result Is usually a largo
and luxuriant crop of weeds.
Upon the small islands about Ka
diak aud Princo William's Sound
there is springing up a promising aui
mal industry. Blue foxes are being
taken there and bred for their furs.
German carp will probably be intro
duced in the fresh water lakes of this
region to furnish food for the foxes.
The other native animals are fast de
creasing. These are tho white-tailed
deer, moose, mountain sheep and
hears. About the lakes behind the
coast are tho breeding grounds of vast
flocks of ducks and geese.
Ilartf to Beat the Newsboys.
"Necessity is the mother of inven
tion" is an old adage which, perhaps,
was never better exemplified than in
Paris after the order had been given
by the Compagnie General des Omni
bus to stop newsboys from entering
its vehicles. It was easy enough to
sell papers i' 2 the streets or even
through the windows of a car or 'bus,
but how was it, now possible to reach
customers perched ou tho "impori
ales," the seats provided ou the
roofs of the streetcars aud omnibuses
in Paris?
Tho problem was soon solved, ror
one fine day a man selling pnpeis ap
peared near the Madeline with a pe
culiar apparatus. He had a stick
seven or eight feet long, with wire
clatjips fastened to its sides and pa
pers stuck in them. On the top there
wis a small metal cup with a hole iu
the bottom. The hole was a very im
portant part of the apparatus, for it
readied all the way down through tho
stick, and through it came tho copper
coins of one or two sous, according to
the price of tho paper selected by the
patron. This was at last a convenient
way to reach tho roof of a car, and
Father Barbette was soon imitated by
a number of other newsboys, who
built apparatus just as ingenious as
l>is.—Syracuse Standard.

'The journalist, having concluded his j

"You are," ho said slowly, "the

it is a newspaper office?"
"It is," replied the wondering edi
tor.
"And this is your product?" ho said,
holding up that week's issue. "A

"Yes."
"The herald of a noisy world?" said
the the visitor dreamily,
i "Yes."

"Yes."
"Tho Archimedean lever that moves

"Yes," and by this time the editor
was getting ready to escape by the

"And all for a dollar a year," said
the visitor, still in that dreamy tone,
as ho let his soft blue eye fall over the
page. "It's a blame ahame," ho went
on, going down into his pocket, "here's
two dollars, and I'll send you in a cord
of wood and a bushel of apples and
four gallons of maple syrup next week."
Then he got up and went out without
so much a3 saying "good-byo" and the
editor gazed stupidity at the two-dollar
bill on his knee.—Washington Star.
Tlio Asiatic Orlfjiw of tho American Race.
There aro two propositions involved
in the controversy as to the Asiatic
origin of the American race; tho one
is that America was peopled from
Asia by invasions or migrations in
pre-savago or pre-glaeial times; the
other is that the peculiar civilization
of Central America was induced by
Buddhist monks, who traveled from
Asia to Mexico and Central America
in the fifth century of our era. Those
who sustain the first thesis aro with
out exception men trained in the
science of anthropology; thoso who
sustain tho second thesis aro with a
few conspicuous exceptions travelers,
geographers, sinologues, missionaries
and the like.
If Asia should ever prove to ho tho
cradle of the human race, or of any
portion of it which had advanced well
beyond the creature known as Pithe
canthropus erectus (a species of the
man-like ape known to science, which
is tho form of animal life approaching
nearest to man in its physical con
struction) then unquestionably ail
Asian people may bo accouuted the
progenitors of tho American Indians.
Any effort, however to establish an
identity at this stage would probably
take us far beyond the origin of
speech or the ability to fabricate an
implement.—Professor E. S. Morse,

Tho Cubans Gooil When Fed.
X)ieutennnt Harlow of tho navy re
latessome very interesting experiences

peasants. Ho interviewed the in
surgents to ascertain what they
needed. Ho reported that they needed
everything—food, clothing, arms and
ammunition—and he was sent ashore
to distributo the relief. Ho fouud
the Cubans willing and eager to assist
him iu getting the rations to their
camps, but ho could not iuduce them
to do anything more. As long nsthoy
had plenty to cat they did not show
any further interest iu the clothing or
the military supplies, and would not
cveu aid him in lauding them and
carrying thorn to their camps. His
own sailors were compelled to unload
the boats, and when the boxes were
placed on tho beach the insurgents
did not have sufficient energy or in
terest to open them, but left tlietu ex

Effypt'fl Population.
How many inhabitants the Egypt of
the Pharaohs had is problematic, but
it is doubtful if it had more than did
the Egypt of the Ptolemys, aud that
was not moro than oight millions. A
couple of centuries ago, under the
Mamelukes, tho number had fallen to
three millions. Under Mehemet Ali
and his suecessers there was some im
provement, aud the census roll of 1875
was increased to nix millions, atwhich
figure, or a little less, it stood in 188?.
Now, after scarcely sixteen yeais of
British rule, the population is about
ten millions. That means an increase
of sixty-six per cent, iu sixteen years,
or more than four per cent, a year. It
means that Egypt to-day, Egypt
proper, not counting tho vast realms
of Equatoria and tho Bahr-el-Ghnzel,
is more populous than ever before in
all its history. That in itself is a sin
gularly impressive aud significant fact.
