A very ureful machine, and one which no newspaper oflleo should fttU to have, has boon Invented by a Jer?0^' City ed itor. Jt Id designed to cure people of the trick of sj tiling upon tlie floor. It is so adjusted that as soon an the editor de tects a person spitting on the floor he touches h spring iu his dosk, and tlie long .arm of the machine descends from the ceiling, a claw*!ike gripper seizes the spitting person bv the small of the body, and the arm, with a swinging motion; forcing him upon the floor, rubs him back and forth across it until it has thoroughly wiped the floor with him. When the editor (who keeps rigid on at his work) thinks that the floor has bevn cleaned, ho touches the spring again, the arms go up to the ceiling, the grip per unclasps its hold, and the spitting person is dropped to the floor, where he can pick himself up and go on with the business for which ho called.

A fow years ago Dr. Ravenol published a formula of a special rnonuro (ash elemoir) for this orop on tandy soil.

Lauds upon whioh wheat and oat? never thrived, were made to produce often one crop of p-.is thirty and filty bushels to the acre. That a luxuriant orop of pea vines aro produced by this speoinl manure (ash el?m?nt) is not extraordinary, an almost any kind of man ure under favorablo circumstances will bring about a like result, llut that laud can be brought up from nothing to a yield way beyond the average, forocs thought to a wider field foi an explanation of cause and effect- Happily this yield litis been ex plored by eminent chemists in this country and in l.ngland, liliir article wi I be continued in tl.e next ie?uo of the Watohm.ith. and some facts will be noticed?endorsed by recognised author -about the use of calcareous immures Upon gaudy soils, and their valm for legutniuoce orops. such us peas, JJ<?w failures may occur, and great expect itioi t be blasted by loo much heat or too much wet; also the dftUilis of.?oruo experiments conducted during tb* pas' years, whioh will afford information to tin? inexperienced as t<> tho preparation of lau I. time and method of sow ng, Ao ?
