Department of Agriculture Has Recognized Importance of Crop. There is no line of work more intimately connected with the agricultural interests of the country than investigations of grasses and forage plants. Grasses are so common, growing everywhere in meadows and waste places, upon hillsides and plains, covering the bare places of the earth with their myriad hosts of individual plants, that we are apt to forget their vast significance in the economy of nature and that they constitute the greatest of our agricultural resources, and form the very foundation upon which rests all our agricultural wealth and prosperity. According to estimates of the Division of Statistics, the hay crop of 1896 alone amounted to 60,000.000 tons, valued at nearly $4,000,000,000, exceeding by a third the total value of the wheat crop. In addition to this vast quantity ol hay, which would barely suffice to carry through the year the 16,000,000 milch cows owned by the Unitod States, enough pasturage, fodder and green forage were supplied to feed 37,000,000 sheep, 30,000.000 cattle, 14.000,000 horses and 2,000,000 mules. A conservative estimate places the total annual value of the grass and forage crops of this country at more than $1,000,000,000. Among the great nations of the world, ours has been the first to give official recognition to the importance of these crops by establishing in the Department of Agriculture a Division of Agrostology, especially devoted to workine out erass Droblems. During the past year 6,000 trial packages of seeds from collections made by the division have been distributed, more than 3,000 grasses have been identified for correspondents, and replies to more than 600 inquirers, relative to the methods of cultivation, us?3, and feeding value of grasses, have been prepared.?Arthur Henry in Ainslee's. Photography in the Stomach. Doctors have succeeded in taking photographs cf the mucous membrane of the stomach in the living subject. A stomach tube, sixty-six centimeters long, with a diameter of eleven millimeters, is introduced, having at the lower end an electric lamp and at the upper end a camera. <The stomach is first emptied and washed, and then distended with air. Then fifty pictures can be taken in rapid succession in from ten to fifteen minutes. By turning the apparatus on its own axis all parts cf the mucous membrane can be pictured. The photographs are about the size of a cherry stone, but, of course, they can be enlarged to any extent.?Practical Druggist. A Second Andrcc'ui. A newspaper at Kastamuni states that while a peasant was shooting in a, forest near that place he heard the growling of a bear, which he found under a tree suffering great pain from i large thorn in his paw. The animal permitted the sportsman to extract the thorn, and showed its gratitude by taking the man, by means of waving its paw, to a tree in which was a honey-comb 20 pounds in weight?

PINKHAM MEDICINE CO. i Thomptqn'sEyiWatir SCIENCE ANO INDUSTRY. The fuse wire used in electric lighting systems and trolley cars is a composition of lead and bismuth. The proportions are varied somewhat to alter the hardness of the wire. It is asserted that the electric furnace has been adapted to glass manufacture. The raw materials are fed through a funnel to an electric arc in the highest part of the furnace. After being reduced to a molten condition it is successively passed between two other electric arcs lower down in tho furnace, finally issuing in a purified condition. Drs. Mactayden and Rowland in their experiments on the influence ?.f low temperatures on bacteria have found that though a certain degree of heat is destructive to bacteria they flourish vigorously and show no alteration in their appearance after being subjected to the very low temperatures attained by the use of liquid air and liquid hydrogen, even though exposed to them for a week. The selection of micro-organisms experimented on included germs of typhoid, cholera and diphtheria. An interesting exploration of Lake Tanganyika and the counirv north of it, finished recently, revealed the fact that while certain sea mollusks are found in the lake, it the the only one of all the large African lakes in which such phenomena are observed. This lake is only a short distance, some 80 miles, from the great Congo basin, much of which, without doubt, was once covered by the sea. The halolimnic fauna appeared to extend into the Congo valley, and it is believed that the lake at one time extended considerably to the west. Lake Nyassa, on the other hand, has every characteristic of a fresh water lake, and the geological fauna dees not indicate that this lake is of any great age. The discovery has just been made that camphor, known only as a vegetable product, or made synthetically, is produced by a small worm-like creature known as a diplopod with the scientific name of polyzoninium rosalbium. The animal is found in this country, and by careful examination it has been found that the substance which gives the odor of camphor is a milky fluid wrhich is exuded from the dorsal pores. This fluid, in addition to possessing the odor of camphor, has a similar taste. Enough of the camphor has not as yet been obtained for chemical analysis, but it is considered a physiological substitute for the prussic acid secreted as a means of defense by a species of myriapod. The changing of certain growing flowers from red to blue on applying alum, etc., to the roots of the plants has been long known; but it has remained for the late systematic re searches of Minyoshi, a Japanese bot- | anist, to open up remarkable new pos- ! sibilities of coloration by the florist. The experimenter prepared watery extracts of 73 different flowers of lilac, purple and red colors, and of a number of red leaves, treating these solutions in turn with acids, alkalies and salts. What seemed to be the same coloring matter in different solutions gave greatly varying results. In most cases alum turned lilac to blue, pink or deeper lilac; hydrochloric acid changed lilac or pale red to deep red, seldom producinglilac.green orbrown; and caustic potash changed lilac to green, or sometimes yellow. In practice these color transformations should follow the application of the chemicals to the plant roots, of course in extremely weak solutions. VALUE OF TELEPHONE NUMBERS. Many Firms Pay Heavy Mileage Hates to Retain an Old " Hello" Address. "Telephone numbers have an actual money value." said an officer of the telephone company. "The assertion has a strange sound, but if you think for a moment of the advantage a business house derives from having its location well known, the thing seems , only natural. "In the course of time people's minds begin to associate a firm with its telephone number, and if, when they start to call up an old friend, they find masquerading under a new number, it is as much of a shock as if they had called at a house with whom they were in the habit of doing business and found it had moved away. It all comes under the legal head of "good-will," a very elusive commodity, but one which has its market value. "So much is this fact appreciated by some of our old patrons that they are willing to pay heavy mileage, if they move away from the neighborhood of their exchange, in order to retain their old telephone address. Many important houses have followed the northward trend of business in the last few years, and there are several cases of a firm's office address being in the up-town district, while its telephone number remains so and so Cortlandt or Broad. The firm's line to the exchange may be several miles long."?New York Mail and Express. What's in a Name. He was an Indian and had been educated at the Carlisle school. But he didn't look much like one. His dress was as correct as that of any New Yorker on the avenue and he didn't turn in his toes. His black hair was close cropped and the only thing that made him noticeable was the combination of very black eyes and dark skin. You would have said that he was a cultivated little man who came from some country. The big hulking Princeton man who met him for the first time at the football game was much interested in his clever talk. They exchanged cards before parting. "By the way," said the son of Nassau, glancing at the badge of civilization handed to him. where the given name read Percy, "do you mind telling me what your Indian name is?"

This tiny orb?a veritable toy world, it might be called?is only about nine mines in diameter. One reason for the interest attaching to it is that it is the nearest to the earth,"the nearest likewise to the sun, cf all the minor planets. In 1S94 it was only 15,000,000 miles away from us, a mere trifle of distance from an astronomical point of view, and this month it approaches within 8,000,000 miles. BET SPRfflG lUDR The Palm Given to Dr. Greeno's Nervura. That Grand Jnrj, the People, Have So Decided. Used by Hundreds of Thousands in Spring as a Blood Medicin?. Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy is indeed "The ??orld's Great Spring Medicine. it has come to be recognized by almost everybody as the best possible spring medicine to take, and hundreds of thousands of our nor.nlo ncn if rlnrinv* fV*/% yvvi/it IV UUi iUQ LUC Li 1 Ll 5 1 months, to tone up anew the relaxed nerves and re-invigorate and enrich the blood. A spring medicine is a necessity if one wishes to keep in perfect health and vigor during the changes from winter to summer. This grand spring tonic, this perfect spring medicine. Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, is exactly what the system needs at this season. It not only purifies, but makes rich, red blood; it not only strengthen; and invigorates the nervous system, but re-energizes and revitalizes the nerves by feeding them with renewed nerve force and power. It is not only an aid to digestion, but it creates a regular, natural and healthy action of the bowels, liver, kidneys, which in the spring are always sluggish and inactive. In fact, it is just what people need to make them well and keep them well during these months, so threatening to the health of all, and wnen it is considered that Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy is made entirely from pure, health-giving vegetable remedies, and that people give it more testimonial of cure than any other .remedy on earth, no one can doubt that it is the very best spring remedy for everybody to use. Mr. Gustave T^eltach, of 337 First street, Jersey City, N. J., says: ? 'T was troubled with sic!: headaches, and could not sleep on account of the pains in my head. I was suffering night and day with dyspepsia, could net eat anything, my stomach would sour so. I had to starve myself to have any ease. I had to give up work at last, I was so nervous and miserable, and I was falling away in flesh so that my friends hardly knew me. I tried several remedies, but without avail. At last someone recommended Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy. I tried one bottle ?.~d began to improve. 1 started in to eat all right; then I picked up my health;.my headaches disappeared, and my weakness and sour stomach went away. I used three bottles, and could sleep all night with ease; I used six bottles, and felt like a new man. I can now do a hard day's work without any trouble, and I am as happy a bird :n spring. I was so miserable, always suffering, always in pain, bui now i am like a new man." Use Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy th:s spring, for it is the discovery and prescripticn of a wellknown physician, Dr. Greene, of 35 W. 14th St., New iork City, who is responsible for its beneficial action, and who can be consulted free of charge, per* m . y r by letter. ANTICGSTPS FUTURE. s'and the Greatest Lobster Producing Fishery on the Globe. Menier's plans for developing his recently purchased island of Anticosti are broad. They include the building of towns, the clearing of land, the construction of roads and railways, the building of a deep seaport, and the development of the natural resources of the island, such as agricultural products, fisheries and paper pulp. A fair start has been made. The old settlement of English Bay, which consisted of a few scattered fishermen's ic? nrtttr th/i spat nf anthoritv on UUtO, AO UV/?? vuv the island. A regular town has been laid out, with streets, a plaza, sanitary plumbing, school, and all that goes to make up the modern community. The hospital is a model of its class, and is supervised by a surgeon of scientific attainments. The store is thoroughly equipped, carrying goods valued at thirty thousand dollars. There is a gymnasium and music hall combined, and quarters for married and unmarried employees. On the outskirts of the town is a farm laid out and managed on modern principles. It is officially designated as the Central Farm, and from it are controlled minor farms and clearings on the island. The chief of agriculture, M. Picard. has had experience in various parts of the world, having served as an agricultural expert on the Congo for the French Government. It is an important part of Menier's plan to surround himself with thoroughly competent men. The scheme of administration includes a governor, M. Comettant, who was born in New York City, and various chiefs of service, M. Landrieu is the chief accountant, M. Jacquemart, a French engineer of note, is the chief of public works; M. Picard, chief of agriculture; Dr. Schmitt, surgeon-in-chief; Mr. Doggett, chief of fisheries; Captain Belanger, chief of marine service, and Mr. Gibsone, legal adviser. Under these directors of departments are many skilled workmen and laborers, the whole making an admirably organized force. Menier is, of course, the absolute ruler, and associated with him as a valued adviser is his friend, M. Georges Martin-Zede, a well-known Parisian. The improvements contemplated and now under way include the building of a deep-sea port at Ellis Bay, the making of roads, and the construction of important lobster canneries at Fox Bay. The latter industry is one of the best on the island. Anticosti is considered the greatest lobster producing ficViorv nn enrth. The immense for ests of spruce on the island will be utilized in the near future, Menier's intention being to erect a large pulp factory, and to export the product to England, France and the United j States. The winning of such an enormous ! territory from desolation and its con[ version into a productive centre, w'th all that such a consummation means I for civilization, is worth the efforts of any man. It is the act of a benefactor.?H. H. Lewis in Ainslee's. i First Lesson in L aziness.

Spirits of turpentine will clean and polish black marble. For removing stains from white marble nothing is better than a paste made of one-quarter pound of whiting, one-eighth pound of soda and one-eighth pound of laundry soap melted. Boil the mixture until it becomes a paste. Before it is quite cold spread it over the marble and leave it for 24 hours. Wash it off in soft water and dry the marble with a soft cloth. a Furniftliing n Kinnll Fla*. In furnishing a small flat it is advisable to avoid massive furniture as much as possible, as it is inappropriate and far from artistic. Marvelous things are done with the aid of a carpenter. a little ingenuity and a few pets of enamel paint. For instance, as every one knows, a round dining room table is a tax on one's pocketbook and is certainly too desirable to be dispensed with. One can easily be made of unpainted pine by a carpenter and painted in the new shade oi forest green, or stained to imitate Flemish oak, which will be quite as pretty as one could buy. and the cost will gladden the heart. The legs must of necessity be plain and unadorned, but if the table is made very low the effect is rather quaint than otherwise. Hinged boxes, prim little seats and sets of irregular book shelves can be devised and treated in the same manner, and the effect produced by these creations of one's brain and the carpenter's skill is far better than that obtained by the regular products of a furnishing house.?Good Housekeeping. A lilt of Science for the Kitchen. A good authority recommends the following method of rejuvenating a fire. When the kitchen fire is low and a quick, sharp fire is wanted the average woman rushes for the kerosene can. The following less dangerous method is offered: Purchase a pound or so of crude salt petre (sodium or potassium nitrate) and dissolve in a couple of quarts of hot water. Satur' ate with this solution a bushel or so of charcoal or coke, and set in the sun or some warm place to get perfectly dry, but do not heat it You now nave a compound which is exceedingly inflammable and capable of producing an intense heat When only a few red coals are to be seen if some of this prepared carbon is introduced a vividly glowing mass will immediately be the result The ready inflammability of charcoal treated with nitre makes it somewhat dangerous to be sure, but not nearly so much so as kerosene or gasoline. A large quantity should not be kept on hand at one time, and it must not be placed where it will be overheated. Tables and Table Linen. It is the fashion to dispense with a tablecloth at breakfast and luncheon, when there is a handsome polished board, and to substitute in place of it thick mats, and for the tea or coffee pot a thick blue and white tile. When there is a large bouquet of fresh flowers or a jardinere of growing ferns and plenty of dainty mats, a breakfast table fitted out in this way may be very attractive. A plate doily under each plate worked in individual colors and designs gives a characteristic finish to the table. Doilies and mats in pure white, however, are preferred to color in embroidery on the breakfast table. When the cloth is used, as it always should be at dinner, a thick blanketing of cotton flannel should be used under it to deaden the noise, as well as to protect from the heat of hot dishes. The table linen should be spotlessly white. The table centre, which is placed under the jardinere of ferns or cut flowers, is preferred in pure white embroidery, laid over the satiny finished damask. The only color used is that on the china. A tablecloth may be kept spotless for some time if these simple directions are followed. As soon as a spot is discovered, put the cloth over a tiny covered board kept for the purpose and scrub it carefully with a little brush, using soap and warm water. If an appearance given by removing the gloss will not be apparent It pays to buy tablecloths with a well covered pattern. Such linen does not show marks and wears better than table linen displaying much plain surface.?New York Tribune..

Beat the sugar and butter to a light cream; add the yolks beaten light, then the whites beaten to a stiff froth, and lastly the flour. Bake slowly. Chrysanthemum Salad?Shred a crisp cabbage and simmer ten minutes; drain and chill, then heap roughly into a bed of green foliage; mix two tablespoonfuls of tarragon vinegar, one tablespoonful of salad oil, one teaspoonful of celery salt, dash of paprika pepper; pour over salad; garnish with tiny peppers and hard-boiled eggs. Allow to absorb dressing before serving. Pressed Chicken?Boil one or two chicken in a small quantity of water, with a little salt; when thoroughly done take all the meat from the bones, keeping the light and dark meat separate; chop fine and season. Put in a pan a layer of dark and light meat; | add the liquor it was boiled in, whjch should be about a cupful. Press with a small weight When cold cut in slices.

Adrt three-quarters of a tablespoonful of salt, lone tablespoonful of butter and a quarter-teaspoonful of pepper. Serve immediately on a hot platter, daintily jarnished with lemon slices.

A novel way of raising money la that employed by a number of Italians in the serranla8 of Cordoba, who, according to the Buenoa Ayres Standard, have laid large traps for condors. The business, it seems, is a lucrative one, as over four thousand birds have been killed in a year and the feathers exported to Europe, where they are in demand for various purposes. Leaving the money part aside, the benefit of this hunting company is well appreciated by the stock-keepers, whose flocks suffer greatly from the depredations of these huge birds. A FEEBLE IMITATION.
