Mushreem Oulture.
Considerable inwre.s is being magi.
fested in this country on the cultia
tion of zhiushrooms. One editor of.a
leading journal has fitted up a case near
Glen Cove, L. L, at a cost of $8,000 fer
the purpose. The spawn used in the
United States Is that obtained at the
feed stores, in the shape of bricks. The
bricks are broken into pieces the size of
hickory nuts, and placed in holes made
by a dibble, some six Inches apart each
way. In three or four weeks the spawn
will have covered the bed, and in a few
weeks the mushrooms will be large
enotigh to pick, and the beds will last
from tour Lo six months. The industry
is one la which there is a promising re
turn for the outlay in its development
in the United States. Much the greater
part of the mushroom product which
goes to su, )ly the markets of world
comes from abandoned portions of the
stone and plaster quarries under the
suburbs of Paris, and at other places in
France. In the department of the Seine
alone, In which Paris is situated, are
some3,000 stone quarries,the abandoned
parts of which are used by some 250
growers, producing, on an estimate,
twenty-five tons of mushrooms daily,
or to the value of $2,000,000 per annum.
The eultivation of the mushroom in
these caves, is an Interesting example
of what may be accomplished Where
skill and industry are given to the
work, although the natural resources
for its prosecution are of the most
meager character. These caves are
from twenty-five to 160 feet below the
surface and are entered trough pit holes
by climbing down a ladder made by
thrusting rounds through a pole fixed
upright. At the bottom of these pits
or entrances the passages radiate in
different directions to the caves. At
convenient points piles ofl manure and
siftings from the debris of the stone
cuttings are piled and undergo prepara
tion for the beds. When In proper
condition, the beds-some twenty
inches in depti-are placed in rows all
over the bottom of the cave, with just
a narrow passage between to facilitate
the work of gaLering. New beds are
continually in preparation to take the
place of the exhausted ones, and the
cropping goes On uninterruptedly. The
general practice In obtaining spawn is
to use so much of [n entire iresh bed
when I t begins to show the growth, as
is necessary each day, which gives a
product several days earlier than when
the dry dorn ..nt spawn is used. The
shafts or openings to the surface are
made numerous enough to give perfect
ventilation both for the health of the
mushroom and the workmen. Strong
drafts and sudden changes ot tempera
tures are guarded against by trap-doors.
The nushroons are gathered daily at
a very early hour in the morning, when
the mushrooms large enough tor use
are seized and given a slight twist to
clear them front contact with any others
not fully grown, and removed with the
roots entire.
Yosomito Creek Glacier.
Tho broad many-fountained glacier
to which tile basin of Yosemite creek
belonged was about fourteen miles In
length by four in with, and in many
places was not less than a thousand
feet in depth. Its principal tributaries
issued from lofty amp~hithleatres laid
well back among tile northtern spurs of
the Iloflman range. T'hese at first ipur
sued a westerly course; then, uniting
with each other and absorbing a series
of small a ffluents, from the Tuolumne,
divided the trunk thus formed, swept
round to the south in a magnifieent
curve, and poured Its ice Into Yosemte t
in cascades two miles wide. This broad
glacier formed a kind of wrinkled ie
cloud. As it grew older, It became
more regular and river-like; encifrcling
pecaks overshaudowved its upper foun
t ainis, rock Islets rose at Intervals
among its shal lowing currents, and its
* bright sculptured banks, no where
overflowe, xtended in massive elm
the ce intr dew eara close, the
- wholly disappeared in tihe suin, and a
/ waiting multitude of plants and ani
mals enter tihe new valley to inhabit
the mansions prepared for thorn. In
the meantime the cief tributaries,
creeping slowly back Into tihe shelter
of their fountain shadows, continued
to live and work independen tly, spread
ing morailne soil for gardens, scooping
basins for lakeicts, and leisurely com
pleting the sculpture of their fountains.
TIhese also hlave at last vanished, anld
the wvhole basin la no0w full of light.
Forests flourish luxuriantly over all
its broad moraines, lakes and meadows
nestle0 among its domes, and a thousantid
flowery gardens are outspread along
its streams. WVhen we walk the path
ways of tile Yosemite glaciers and~
contomphlate their separate works--the
mnoutntainis they have shaped, the can
o ns they have furrowed, the rocks they
have worn, and overwhelmed as at
iirst with its uncomnpared magnitude,
we ask, Is this all? wondering that so
mighty a concentration of energy did
not find yet grander expreseion.

a supply suficient for a score of years
of hard work. I don't know of any
other buisiness in which a man wastes
his labor so much as in farming, and
by negclect causes himself so much fu
ture work or expense.* It is thus not
only in regard to weeds. but with in
sects of all kinds, which are permitted
to increase and multiply by myriads
until either one-fourth of the crops
are destroyed by them, or the crop is
saved only at the cost of one-fourth Its
value. some of my neighbors insist
that it is useless to fight against weeds
or insects, that they are "natural to
the ground,' and spring out of itspon
taneously and without seuding or bree

would have me believe that the mag
gots in cheese originated naturally
irom cheese, and scout-d the advice
that he should keep the flies out of his
curing-room, on the ground that the
tiles had notating to do with the mag

farmers can never learn anything from
agricultural colleges or experiment sta

SKIMMtNG MILK.-The wise man in enu

no mention of a time to skim milk,yet,
neverthless, there is a time-a right
Lime, too-and that is just as the milk
begins to sour in the bottom of the
pans. Then the cream Is all at the sur

with ae little of the milk as possible.

THEn RAISING of herses in the great,
Yellow Stone Valley has become an
important and profitable buisiniess.
Some of these herders have from 500 to
1,500 each, and dispose of their three

head. The animals feed on grass alone,
and the only shelter afrorded from the

still the animals thrive well, andi are,
as a rule, more valuable than those bred
elsewivhere.
DnILLING WuicA.-Alany farmers are

wheat. We hear of frequent experi

generally turnedl out satisfactory. Cul

drilling tihe wheat in 16 inch rowvs by
stoppling every alternate sprout. It Is
not dilcuit to construct a simple culi

Eating Enxough and To Much.
Th'ie amount oi aouisument which a
person needs greatly depends on his
constitutIon, state of health, habits and
wvork. A sedentary man requires less
than one whose duties demand the cx
ercise 01 his musoles,and a brain-work
er uneeds nmore than an idiler. But un
questionably, the majority of us take
more than wve need. lnd~eed, food and
work are distributed most unequally.
TIhe man of' leisure Is also the man of
means, and, accordingly fares sumpt
cously every day; wile the laborer
tolls b r eight hours, and finds it diffl
cult enough to rep~aie the waste of' his
tissues. Yct a Chinamnan or a Benge
lee wvill toll undler tihe tropical sun and
find a f'ew pice worth of rice or Jowrah
aufilient to sustain hms strength. A
Frenchman will not eat half what an
Eeglishman engaged in the same wori5
wvill demand, and a Spanish laborer,
content in ordinary times with a wa
termelon and a bit of black bread, will
toil in the vine-yards and grow fat on
a dietary of onion porridge and grapes.
It is true that Mr. Brassey,when build

that one English navy was worth a

thani whom a more magnificent set of

of pork. But they also obtain the best

out-door life and active exercise, en
able them to digest every ounce of
their frugal fare. T1he English sol
diers, tho ugh better fed thtan those of'
any army except the American, do not

ment which the idiest of club loungera

CooLING WATE.-A simple contriv
ance for cooling water has ueen Invent
ed by M. Toselli of France. It is de
scribed in Les Mondes, and consists of
a cylindrical cup for holding any liquid
into which may be plunged an inner
goblet, shaped like an Inverted trun
cated cone, and having a lid which
rests on the outer cup. Putting 150
grammes of nitrate of ammonia in the
Inner goblet, filling it with cold water,
and stirring It so as to hasten the solu
tion, the temperature of the outer liquid
Is soon reduced to at least 12 degrees
C., 22 degrees F. The salt may be used
for an Indeilnite period by spreading
it on a plate after each triaj, and ex
posing it to the sua until It crystallizes
anew. The inventor prepares a salt
which will lower the temperature
28 degrees C. or 50 degrees F., in the
warmest countries.

family is fond of them, keeps on hand

they are ricner and half as thick as bis

An improved method of stopping
engines, tays the Electrician, has
recently been devised. The main ob
ject of the device is to enable any child
or unskilled person in any part of a
mill to stop the engine in case of acci
dent. The action is exceedingly sim
ple. By touching a spring similar to
the spring of an electric bell, an elec
tric ball is set in motion. The ball drops
and shuts one .of the valves, which pre
vents the steanm fronm escaping, andathe
engine is brought to a standstill.
Looking-glaases are silvered, as it is

sheeU of tin-foll is placed very sriioothly
on a table or stone, and the foil is then
flooded with mercury. The g1ass is
laid tIpon Ic. in such a way as to expel
air-bubbles, and heavy weights are laid
on the glass.
