cuursa horse hair. For the curled hair used for mat/'tresses the following process is used: The hair is first washed iu hot water r and softened, and it iH then spun into ropes while wet and warm and kept so until it gets the required sot and curl. It is prepared for use by picking it apart. The ropes are hard twisted, so that when they are taken apart the hair curls up and becomes quite elastic. It will hardly pay to curl ono'a own hair, as it may be purchased more cheaply f than it can be gathered by any person not in the business. Most ot the "horse" hair in the market is the pro duct of horned cattle, the switch of the tail being used for this purpose.?New York Times. AX IXDFTFATIOABLE IXSF.CTTnOE.

Malt dust is n valuable resource. The demand is becoming so great that ? probably it will soon cease to be a cheap food; but while it remains so it is a real boon both tothe fow lsand their owners. They will eat almost anything that is sprinkled with malt dust, fcnd a six shillings sack of it goes a long way. A certain proportion ol , . green food, and also of animal food, is ^ ' indispensable. Lettuce leaves, turnip tops, oabbage leaves, celery, should be ?. thrown L> them. They should have F ftppnKi; fn orrflfltt tn nir?lc uniwlu nn<l ii?

I Every once in a while some dairyIf man remarks that he does not need ? tell him which are the best * ftelry eotfs; ftCTfin tell by looking at them. He just sells the fat ones and keeps tlio thin ones. Quite oft 'n this is the standard by which cows are judged: the thinner they are when giving milk the better dairy cows they are oonsidwred. There is, of course, some . reason in this. Wo know that a cow .. that uses her food to put flesh on her back, instead of putting milk and fat into the pail, is not the most profitI able cow for the dairy. J'ut to jump rt^io the conclusion that because a cow j^^^s poor in flesh she must of necessity l>o a good dairy cow is drawing a con* K elusion that is not justified by facts. K There arc some beef cows that will oat a good ration every day and keep ^B in just fairly good condition, while Rl there are others in tin- same herd that on the same feed keep their ribs ^E and baoka nicely covered with flesh. H The latter arc good feeders and the [H former poor feeders. The latter have tin- natual ability to innko better nee oi their feed than the former; thoy Hff have feeding quality. ^B It is just tlio same with dairy cows, S3P some are good feeders and some arc HB poor feeders.

V., writ^^flfng in Garden and Forest, says: "Few vegetables have been hybrid* ^^Ry.od or selected with greater rare than tho bean, and varieties suitable for several purposes have been developed, until little improvement now sceme possible. Among snapbeans, tho new yellow-podded wax varieties, which are almost cylindrical in shape, solid yet tonder, and of the finest fibro and flavor, are quite superior to the oldtime flat, green-podded and stringy varieties. Among tJe best varieties are Wardwell's Kidney Wax, Yosemite Mammoth Wax, Qolden Wax and Perfection. Of shell beans, the best nro Dwarf Horticultural; Golden Cluster, which is very productive and bearsflat beans about two-thirds as large as Henderson's Bush Mieva, meaty ami well flavored; Hemisphere, a bean almost round, but solid and of extra quality, half of it beinsr 1 ivrht brown in color, splashed with red. Thin color would detract from its value as a market variety, but iu the processof cooking the color to a great extent disappears, so that it is one of the very best for the kitchen garden. On the station grounds, as the main experiment crop for the past four years, a pur a white beau has been grown which has proved of extra quality and productiveness. It is very hardy and isproot thus far against the anthrecnoso, ro prevalent throughout this section. It has been called the Hatt bean, after its originator, but I ain not aware that it has been offered for sale under any name, although it should bo more generally known. "The search and selection necessary fur a true Dwarf Lima bean has been successful, and it would now seem hardly necessary to grow the pole Lima bean. The latter come to maturity a trifle earlier thau the busli type when both are planted together, it is tl'ue, but the dwarf varieties may be started earlier, either iu common beds or in inverted sods, or in pots in the kitchen or greenhouse. When planted out they can be protected from early or late frosts with ease so that the season of bearing can be lengthened out by the same method. Cheap cloth protection or wide boards can bo used against frost. Two distinct typos of those beans arc now offered by seedsmen, Burpee's Bush Lima, with large Hat pods, well tilled with beans, and resembling the old garden Lima, and or Ivuuierly's Dwarf Lima, ^witli shorter pods and beans resembling iu shape Dreer's Improved Lima. Either of these can bo grown in tlio kitchen trarden. and for market thev will certainly crowd out tho climbing varieties, since many more can ba planted 011 tho same area and no ex? punse is necessary i'or poles." FARM AND CIAHDEN NOTES. For chapj)ed or scratched teats apply cream or frcsli butter. Live the colt some nice, bright oats, where it can got at them handy. The colt should have a good yard, lot or pasture to feed and exercise in. It is not necessarily true that "skim milk calves make pot-bellied ear suckers." If you raise sheep for wool, breed merinos; if for mutton, breed tho heavy type. Market only the best of your produce and put it up in the most attractive manner. Pet the colt, so it will learn to know that you do not mean to hurt it. Do not scare nor tease it. Do not skim-milk your calves too loon. Let them have some new milk for at least two weeks. A cow abused will not do her best. To make you money each cow should be allowed to do her best. A nervous cow will "give down" milk better if in a quiet place securely fastened and milked very gently. Early shearing is very desirable. It relieves the sheep of ticks and enables the owner to take precautions against seal). Halter break the colt while young, bo that it will stand quietly tied. If you have been kind to it, it will soon learn to lead. It requires grain to make pork or beef, but mutton of the finest quality can be made of nibbles here and there of such stuffs as would otherwise be a waste. , Pack your fruit honestly if you want to succeed. When you think you liavo secured a good customer don't palm tiff an inferior article on him. it you do you are sure to lose him. In buying or exchanging sheep give a thorough examination for scabs, ticks, lice and foot rot before turning them into the llock, or you may bo getting more than you knew of. liiiisoncr Culture. Ginseng will grow well in anj' moist, fertile soil in woods where it is shaded, if the shade is not dense. A littl? sunshine won't hurt it. It must have plenty of light and air. Iii preparing the ground for planting roots and seed, grid* up all the undergrowth, leaving enough of the saplings and large timber to make sutlieient shade. Then rake oil' all the weeds and dry leaves; dig up all the roots of other plants, if any ; clean, mark off a space of ground three feet wide any length convenient; dig tin the ground loose three or four inches deep; cover the bed with humus, vegetable mold, about four inches deep. Leave an alley between beds one foot wide. Make the rows aeross the bed four inches apart. Prop the berries two inches apart in the row and cover about half an iuoh deep. The berries must bo planted in the fall when ripe and while fresh, and will not come up for eighteen months. There is no plant moro beautiful for a tlower pot than a ginseng plant, with its red pod of berries 011 top. 'flu plants should lie cultivated three years from tho timo they come to be ol marketable size. Plant roots same as seed, only plant from one to two in'-hef deep and farther apart, according to size. (linsong roots for market should bo dug in the fall after the sap has returned to tho root; wash, clean and let dry in the shade. Large cultivated dried ginseng roots are worth from 34 to 34.50 per pound in New York City, Ginseng will also grow well in open ground, pots or boxes in light houses, etc., if planted in wild dirt and humus from tho woods and shaded, treated as any other liouso plant. It can bo grown in sections whero they have 110 rainfall, by irrigation.--Farm, Field anfH? qmUC, A MILLIONAIRE'S PALACE, T TO BB BUILT ALMOST WHOLLY OB B: STEEL. AND GLASS.

The building, ho- ni cording to the American Contractor, st is to bo about 230 feet long by about p 100 feet wide. At one end it will be ti surmounted by a tower 115 feet high, at the other end by a similar tower, o: but of less size and height. A strik- w ing featuro will be the sides below tho o cornice, which slope to tho ground, l! with a curve at an angle of forty-five ci degrees. In the sloping sides are set ft oval windows twelvo feet long and d made to conform to tho lines of the g Bides of the walls.

And tho g only stono used will bo sculptured I marblo in the stairways and tho main b frieze, and onyx and decorative marbles b in tho bathrooms, the stairs and a few y other places. Even the foundations t will be of steel and concrete. The floors 1 will bo of concrete, brass and aluini- i' mini, the walls of steel and the roof of 1 steel, brass and copper. Tho inside 1: walls will be some of oxidized sheet t iron, some brass covered with a prep- b nrntion that protects tho burnish of r metal, some copper, some nickel and so on to correspond with the decora- a tions of the room. The ceilings will t be arched and relieved hero and thcro C with great brass medallions. The par- t tition walls will bo composed of metal r grilles extending from floor to ceiling, j arranged in various designs, forming a ( vast net work through which the visitor s can sco from the grand stairway at ono I end to the great ball-room at the op- t posite end. llicli tapestries will or- c dinnrily cover the metal grilles and di- t vide ^he interior thus into fourteen s apartments, eight of which will be t chambers and consist each of a suite of ( four rooms?a sleeping-room, dressing- 1 room, bath-room and study. All lie t heating, lighting, ventilation and cooking will be done by electricity. Tlio servants' quarters, the kitchen, the machinery and the laundry will nil be in the basement. The water wheel and dynamos will be located at the foot of the hill, a considerable distanco from the building. The sole entrance to the basement from without will be at the foot of the hill through a tunne', so that no one from within or about the house will see the approach or entrance of servant, grocer, butcher or delivery wagon of any kind. The structure itself will he surrounded by a broad walk, and outsi !o of the walk will be an artificial lake surrounding the building and forming a moat to be crossed over a movable drawbridge, thus placing the houso practically upon an island. This lake will bo led by water from artesian wells already in operation and pumped up by powerful pumps. The water of the lake will also servo to run tlio dynamos that furnish light, heat and power for uso in the building. The (lours of the building will he of brass and aluminum grille work of ornamental design, the interstices filled with a new Hungarian cement which is said to become hard as granite when set and to admit of a high and durable polish. The cement will be of various colors and so laid with the metal grille ns to surpass in cft'ect any monaui 1 llooriug in existence. The vinter 1 I j palace nt St. Petersburg is now having j a floor laid of this material and on I similar lines. Everything about tho 1 building is to be fireproof except per- 1 haps a part of the furniture.

The Laguna de Jaco is a salt lake in Mexico, for the development of which a British company is now constructing a railroad, says the Two Republics. The waters of the lake aro intensely , salt, carrying from twenty-two to thirty j per cent, of that material in a state of , purity ranging from ninety-eight per , cent, to chemically pure chloride of < i sodium. Tho douth of water of the , lake ranges from three to thirty feet, and bears on top a tough crust from . three to ten feet iu thickness, composed of silt, salt, sodn, tho various alkalies | ami other impurities?the surface ot ] this crust being, in wet weather, a i mushy mass, and in tho long dry seasons carrying a few inches of dry, white, spongy material, resembling snow. Along the eastern shore of the , lake (the prevailing winds being from the high Fraile mountains in close proximity on the west) are mauy long ridges and mounds of almost pure salt, resembling ridges and dunes of white sand, while the Jake itself can readily be made to yield 500 tons per day of salt as pure as tho very best made from sea water. The bottom of the lake is of linoly comminuted mud, beneath I which is a great bed of roek salt, the | thickness of which is yet unknown. I Electrical Development, it is evidont that the field for electrical progress and development is very great. Doctor E.

In struetnros themselves, iiB typo is shown by tlio Manufactures ad Liberal Arts Building, which pos>bsos dimensions hitherto uunproached in the history of architecire. 1 It is 1687 feet, or nearly one-third f a mile, in length, by 787 feet in idth; the ground floor has an area of ver thirty acres; the central hall is ( 280 feet by 380 feet, and this space is ovcred by one tremendous roof 237 2ot high in the middle and wholly inependent of central support. The rest trusses sustaining it hnve a span f 382 feet. Tho building is three imes as largo as St. Peter's in Rome, 'he pyramid of Cheops could bo piled p iusido its walls, and the Roman Jolosseum, which if^ated 80,000 perohs, would occttpy but one-sixth of its pace. To look even casually at half ho exhibits in such a place is out of he question; both mind and body are uequal to it. The'roof is reached by lovatorr, naturally of the world's ;reatest. As one ascends, the throng >elow is no longer of human beings, ?nt pigmies moving in and out of toy ia?aars. Upon the roof is the groat romenade, half a mile in length. At he corners are the four largest seareliights yet made, one of which has an lluminating power equal to that of 94,000,000 candles. It throws its iglit upon Milwaukeo, ninety miles o the north, and for Lincoln Park, >ut fifteen, miles distant, it is almost a toonday sutt. Evervthinc is immense?fearfully nd. wonderfully immense.

'From Chicago it goes to the great house of iiipton Co., p.udwill then travel over he British Isles, the wonder of wonlers to tho English yokel. It is rather remarkable, considering its size, that ts quality should grade up, as it does, vitli tho best fancy cheese. In tlio Dominion there are over 1500 successful co-operative factories. The Government lias five large experimental itations and does much to advance the industry. Perhaps that accounts 'or the fact of Canada's exjiorting moro rlieeso than tho Unit\?S States. A little distance on is another jnormity. This is a temple, tliirtyjight feet high, made of 30,000 pounds of chocolate. Under tho dome sits a finely executed figure of Germania after the famous bronze statue at tho Nielerwald, on tho Khine. Near one entrance indho Transportation Building is the model, to all appearance real, of the largest steam hammer in tlio world. It represents tlio Dno used by the Bethlehem Steel Company of Penney vania. The falling part of tho hammer alone weighs 1*25 tons and has a drop of 10 J feet. With this tiammer tho largest armor plates are mado, exceeding in size, probably, any manufactured by rolling. rurtner on in tne liamwin JLocomotive Works exhibit is tho last ami greatsst of railway engines. This is a Kiud known as a decapod, and is several jizes abovo the big engines called moapils. It has live connecting drivingwheels on either sido and weighs 100 tons. After the Fair it will be used on the Erie Road. In the Mining Building may be seen tho largest nugget of gold in existence, tho Maitlund Bar nugget, which weighs 144.78 ounces, contains 313 ounces of fine gold, and has a value of SOOOO. Several larger nuggets have been found and are shown by model, but this is the real metal. In the samo building is the largest piece of coal ever takes out. The block weighs twelve tons and lias been shipped here from Wigan, England, where it was mined. In the Machinery Hall is tho enormouR Westinghouse electric lighting plant. This is tho largest installation in the world, and consists of twelve dynamos, each supplying electricity for 10,000 lights of 16?candlo power, >r for 15,000 whon forced to the utmost capacity. The Westinghouse Company has also the largest and most perfect switch-board ever used. This is made up of 26 dynamo panels and 10 feeder panels. Near by is a marvel in the way of s belt. It is of three-ply, oak-tanned leather. 8i feet wide hv '203 feet lnno One can scarcely imagine what giant machinery such a bolt is to turn, yet it has its use, as with few exceptions theso great things tiro made undei contract, and not primarily for exhibition. They represent tho growing needf and powers of the times. In the Shoo and Leather Building the objects most noticeable for size art three hides. One, that of a bullock, contains 250 square feet of leather. It is split into fotir layers, but left joined (ft the neck, and while to intact each layer has been beautifully dressed in e different color. The whole may be fairly considered the highest point yet attained in tanning and dressing. Another is that of a walrus, and weighs, tannod, 300 pounds. On account of it4 great thickness of one and a half inches tho tauning required threo years. The third and largest hide ever tanned is that of an enormous elephant. This weighs 500 pounds, is 20 feet from trunk to tail, and 17 feet at itsgreatest width. TheRe extremely thick hides are used by such companies as the Meriden Britannia in polishing plate. In the same building is the largest piece of bark ever sealed, a piece of hemlock bark 12 feet I inches by 0 feet 4 inches Jn the Forestry Building is a maA i hogony log from Mexico 42 inches square and 41 feet in length, whioh, considering both length and thickness, is very remarkable. If the wood were figured instead of having a straight grain the one log would have a value of over *30,00". The largest plank in existence is that of a finely finished piece of California redwood sixteen feet five inohes wide, twelve feet nine inohes long, and five inohes thick. It is very doubtful if a tree will be found to yield suoh another. A cross-section of a California redwoad tree exhibited, fourteen feet in diameter, shows from its rings that it was already six feet six inches In thickness when Columbus discovered America. In the Krupp exhibit, which has a building to itself, is the much-talkedof greatest gun of the age, a 120-ton rifled gun, sixteen-inch calibre and forty-Bix feet in length. Tho gnn is for land fortification and is reputed to be destined ultimately for Italy. It is Baid to be ablo to throw a projectile weighing ono ton a distance of twenty miles. In thcoastlo of Dover is an old gun bearing tho legend: "Swab me out and keep mo clean, and I'll carry a ball to Calais green." Modern war engines aro realizing tho bravado of anciont times. At the end of the Plaisance near the Fifty-ninth street exit is tho Ferris wheel, the gigantic iron oirole which supplies tho place of the Eiffel Tower. Hero tho wheel of the country fair has developed into a vast metal structure 250 feet in diameter. To its rim great cars aro attached, and in them one seoms to sweep through tho heavens.
