There are 12,337,051 acres of surveyed public lands undisposed of in Wisconsin, 8.883 948 acres in Minnesota, and 12, 657,543 acres ia Nebraska. Coal it now found ia about thirty dif ferent states of the Union and scv.'n territories. In 1887 tho lilt'.o stato of Rhode Island supplied 6090 tons out of the total product of 123,965,255 tons. The Smith family is numerous in England and Wales. The censu? places the number of individual Smiths in those countries at 355,814, which is more than tho whole population of Dub lin. The steady enlargement in the area devoted to oats has been one of the noticeable feature3 of American agri culture since 1870. The increase ia the breadth of the crop of 1888 over that of 18S7 amounts to fivo per cent, or nearly one and a quarter millions of acres, and brings tho total area up to more than twenty-seven millions of seres. The Now York Press has estimated that tho consumption of meat on an ocean steamer is greater thtn tho amount required ia many a small town. One of tho transatlantic steamship lines annually consumes more than 2,000,000 pounds of meat, or some 4,600 ehcep, 1,800 lambs aid nearly 2,500 oxen. Truly, tho sea bu'eher is an important and bu?y personage. Some tiina since a nativj of the Sand wich Inlands who had been condemnod to death for murder was told that his sentence wou'.d be commuted to im prisonment for life if he would consent to inoculation with leprous viru, in order to determine whether loprosy is a contagious diiea35. He consented to the hard alternative, aad, aftor an inter val of many months, he has developed symptoms which, tho physicians say, prove that he i3 affected with lepro?y. Prof. E i-ha Gray once declared that electrical science had made a greater ad vasce ia the last twenty years than in all the 6000 historic years preceding. More it discovered ia one day now than ia a thousand years of tho middle ages. We fad all sorts of work for electricity to da We make it carry our message, drive cur engine, ring cur door-bell and scare the burglar; we take it as a mc di ck e, light our gas with it, see by it, h:ar from it, talk with it, and now we are beginning to teach it to write. W. IL S. Aubrey, an Englishman, thus describes a tyrical American: 'The passion for talk is unbounded, and it is only equaled by that for titles aad decorations. Xcthicg seems so de lightful to the average American as to take part in the processions that are perpetually being got up, and to wear the metallic or ribbon adornments that appertain to them. Of political, labor and friendly organizations, to say noth ing of secret orders with grotesque titles and paraphernalia, there is no end, and members delight to appear in uni form, with cocked hats, covered with cheap feather", and weariag the inevi table sword and military gauntlets. Tho resident English Consul at Man churia, China, tells ia his report of a curious industry which fl mrishos in that part of the world. It is breeding dogs for their skins which go to make dog skin rugs. The market is not suppliod by catching stray animals in the streets but from regular dog ranches with which Manchuria is dotted by thous ands. A ranch produces from 10 to 100 rugs yearly, and it takes 8 skins to make a good rug. Dogs which grow fine fur in that country are strangled in tho winter time when the fur is best, before they are a year old, and their skins are sent, frozen, to be prepared in some town. Tho bodies are eaton so that nothing is lost This industry may not be expected to flourish out side China, as we are told that it is necessary for the dogs to be eaten, in order that the ranches may make both ends meet, as skins of good quality and carefully prepared only fetch three taels or about $3. 50 at Bristol. A perfectly feasible a:.d very im portant ship canal is in course of con struction, according to the New York Mail and Express, to connect Manches ter, England, with tho estuary of the river Mersey, which is the outlet to the caof tho vast comnv.rcc of Livcipol. Tho cost will not much exceed $5 000, 000, tho whole work only icquiriag tho excavation or 48,000,000 cubic yards, and the removal of 6,000,000 yards of rock. Four years from last November ii tho ti i.e at which tho canal is to lo fioi hcl, r.nd the progress mndc so far is in ad van co of what this requires. Tho estuary of tho Mersey is 17 miles in length, and tho river is navigaMo farther inlan I to the mouth of tho Irwcll, ten miles from Manchester, which is on the Irwcll. As early u3 1761 the Bridgewater canal gavo Min cho3tcr its first means of commuuicttion with Liverpool, and in 1825 a railway was opened with a locomotive, of which George Stevenson was tho engineer.

New York Sun, FOR FAM AND GARDEN. laiw to Haifa lite Dairy Pay. A well known writer on dairy mat ters says that the general average price of butter in a locality was pretty cor rectly guagod by tho amount of dairy literature taken by those there engaged in dairying. It pays always to be in telligent even if it has to be paid for and exertion mado to master tho sub ject Here are five rules, some of which may be of use: 1. Set out the milk quickly as pos sible aftor milking. 2. Skim off thi cream before the milk gets thick. 3. Churn before the cream gets sour, i c, slightly acid. 4. Wash out the buttermilk with weak brine. 5. Salt an ounce to tho pound and pack in small packages. Now York Herald. Cnufi for Meadows, In mixing crashes for a meadow all tho srecios used should come into bloom at tho sama time ia order to se cure them in the best condition for hay. But orchard grass and timothy do not como forward ia spring at the same time, the former blooming nearly two weeks beforo tho latter, consequently it must be cut much earlier to make good hay. Bluj grass and red clover may be sown with orchird grass. Still wo pre fer to sow the latter alone than to mix any other kind with it. For pasture mixed grasses are preferable to any one species alone, because of the difference in season and growth. For light soils orchard grass is far superior to timothy as a hay crop, and with fair treatment it will last ten to fifteen years, and, with an occasional top dressing of manure, much longer. New York Sun. Tbe EcoRomr of Feeding-. There are two things a farmer can never have enough of: One is feed, tho other is m inure. Feed obviously makes manure, for it enables the farmer to keep more catt'e, and some can always be purchased cheaply in the fall or win ter and make a good profit on tho feed ing. And for tho manuro soma little can always be procurod to absorb and mix with all the valuable excrements tious matter. Now tin corn is planted, all the land le It that can be worked should bo prepared for millet for in creasing tho feed supply. Ic is a late croj but one of the easiest to grow, and yields a large quantity of the very best feed. The land should bo prepare! and half a bushvi of seed sowa per acre. Tho seed is covered 1 y light harrowing. Immediately after sewing late in Juno or early ia July, (wo prefer to sew in June) , timothy and clover may bo sown and a good ttand of grass secured. A fair yield of the millet will be three tons of the very best hay per acre, if the crop is cut when tho blossom first appears, and the hay is not exposed to the sun more than half a day beforo it is put in cock for complete curing. New York Times. Turnips for Hog. The days are gone when cheap pork can be made from corn alone. Our b.5gs would bo less liablo to disease, and make healthier meat if less corn was given them. A good clover pasture, fresh water, and a litt'o mill stuff will keep hogs ia good growing condition during the summer; add to this plenty of skim milk and you have gool ra tions for brood sows and young pigs. For fail and winter feeding and fattening wo need more thai thi. What shall it be? Have you ever tried turuip? They arc easily grown and as they will do well even if sown late, they can be raised upon grouad from which one crop has been taken. The tetter the tilth of tho land the better tho crop. It will pay to uso care in preparing tho ground aad in sowing tho seed. Lirgo yields of turnips cau be obtained at little expense, as tho seed is cheap (or you can raise it yourself in time to use each year), and tho amouit of labor absolutely needo 1 to iusure a good crop, is small, after preparation of ground. We advho all who have never triod turnips as a pork producer to put ia some next mouth and give the:n a trial this fall and winter. Mr. F. D Curtis is a firm believer in and an earnest advocate of turnips as a food for all kinds of hojrs, store, stock and fitttenincr. As a wholesome food, and in the interest of cheap pork raising. he has urged farmers to uso them. Fa m, Field and Stockman. Host In r In U. -trees. Mr. F. Raymo..d of the Royal Horse Infum.'.ry, Wxdwich, E lgland, has an nounced that successful experiments have I een made in tho surgical treat ment of horses for tho gravo defect ia respintion known as "roaring" a de fect which appears to Le on tho in crease, a cl which often renders valu al le hrscs almost, if not quite vulujlcsa. The operation has beou devisod by Dr. Fleming, j rincipal veterinary turgcoa of thi army, who for some years has made a speci 1 study of the morbid con ditions which fcivo riso to tho impedi ments breathing that causes such dis tress and noie.

The h rca op. r. ted upon wcro watcn d and fed ia tho uu d way as soon as they recovered from the narcotic; so that even if the operation chanced to be un successful, the animal is no worse fhan before. The scar which remains is very small and not noticeable. Mr. Riymond predicts that Fleming's method of laryngotomy will take a po sition among tho mcst useful in veter inary surgery.

If the pasture lacks shade trees a shelter of some sort should bo put up. Ticks are much easier to get rid of immediately after shearing than at any other time. Keep tho fowls clean, well-fed, well housed, and free from vermin, and they will lay egg7. It will pay you to givo milk cows a small ration of good timothy hay. each night during the summer. Land that has been affected by corn "smut" or ergot had best be seeded. It is the most effectual r.medy.

Use tho horse and cultivator among the hoed crops until you havo dono all you can la that way. You cannot afford to dig up sods with a hoe ia these times. You can't mako a success of dairy farming unless you know how many pounds of milk and butter each indi vidual cow ia your herd can produce in a year. Ia fighting lice the point of attack should be not the hen but the poultry house. If the house is cleared of lice the hen will keep herself clean with the dust bath. Never, when setting a hen, fail to give her a good dm ting in sulphur and road dmt. An uaeasy hen on a setting of valuable eggs is not a profitable in vestment. All recertic!os for extracted honey, even thoaa new, should be well rinsed with pure, cold water, and, after well driid, waxed, if of wooden structure, before u;ing.

There are littlo things which afljct the quality of I utter which is not easy to explain to others. Good judgment is a quality not transmissible on paper. Four quarts of finely ground cornmoal or of a mixture of bran and cornmeal may be givei cv.ry day to a cow on pasture. If the milk is sold and not made into butter, buckwheat bran may bo given instead of cornmeal. Tho essence of all profitable boo keep ing, says Father Langstroth, is con tained in tho golden rule, ' Keep your stocks strong.1' If you cannot succeed in doi ig thi the moro money you in vest ia bce the heavier will be your losses.

The stern post of tho San Francisco, "Cruiser No. 5," which was cast, and, so far as known, successfully, at the Union iron works, will weigh rome thing moro than 21,000 pounds, exceed ing the weight of the sternpost of the Charleston by 6000 pounds. Some thing like 80.000 pcuad3 of molten steel w is run into the great mold con structed in the floor of the casting room, which allowed, of course, for a considerable overflow, which is always deemed ad vi table. It will take fully a week to cool the great mass of iron suf ficiently for examination, but so far as known tho casting was successful. Sin Francisco Examiner. Practice Makes Perfect.

Tho preferercoin poisons was for arsenic, aad this in its commonest form, Paris green.

THERMOMETERS. Making Instruments for Deter mining the Temperature. The Largest Thermometer That Was Ever Constructed. "Thermometers?" repoated one of the best known manufacturers of tho:e in teresting instruments to a reporter for tho Nw York Mail and Express, "I shall be very happy to tell you all 1 know about them," he continued, as he glanced at a mammoth one by his"sid, whoso mercury had that moment at tained tho appalling record of 98 de gree, and seemed about to climb up to the lOO'mark, and then said: 'Therc aro three kinds of thermom eters the Fahrenheit, the Cuntigr ido and the R n-mer. Ad of these are used for the samo purpose aud the only dif ference between them lies in tho scalo of measurement. Tho Rocmcr instru ment is ued mostly ia Germany and other nations on tho continent of Eu rope, and tho Centigrade i3 tho intern ment mcd wholly by scientific men in their experiments, but tho Fahrenheit thermometer is practically the only ther mometer known in this country, and when wo say 4It is 100 in the fchade, we mean that tho temperature is at 100 degree 4 Fahrenheit. "Tho thermometer is exceedingly simplo in its construction, consisting ouly of tho glass tube aud the mercury or a'c .'hol in the bul ct tho lower end. There is nothing peculiar in tho manu facture of the tube, which is male of fine Hint glass, and tho process of blow ing tin Lulb for tho reception of tho mercury is uot difficult, although it is a nice operation to make the sizo of the Lulb proportionate to that of the tule. The ordiaary mercury of commerce ii then poured in, tho open end of tho tube is closed with tho llow-ripe, the whole is fitted to tho scale aad the ther mometer is complete." ' Is mercury better than alcohol to indicate the temperature ?" "Both liquids servo tho purpose equally well, but mercury i3 really better ia that it responds more readily to expansion or contraction from tho ouUido temperature. M;rcury is very sensitive, while alcohol is moro slug gish in its action and cannot, there fore, le used for fine experiments; but in the coldest clinr.tes mercury caanot be U3cd Dccausc it wi l frcczi and be come solid ifi:d on reaching a cert tin point.' "What is the u-it of measure in de termining tho scale? ' "Tho frei zing point is the unit of measure and is obtained by inserting the bulb ia a quantity of brolccn ic, aad tho rest of the scale is then taken from the standard thermometer, which has been passed upon by the Smithso nian Institute at Washington. "There is still another kind of ther mometer, which is used by physicians in determining the temperature of the body, called the clinical thei minister. This is an exceedingly delicate instru ment, for the bore has to be very mi nute in order that tho mercury may re spond as quickly as possible when a p. plied to tho patient" "Why is it that different thermome ters undor, apparently, the same condi tions, register different degrees of tem perature?' "Thermometers are very rruch like watchos. A cheap watch may be a good timckocper, but the chances are against it; and so a cheap thermometer like those usually sold in stores may bo absolutely perfect in its way, whilo an other may be utterly worthless; and most of theso poor goods como from concerns which turn them out by the hundreds daily, and it it unnecessary to say that a good article cannot bo made in such a wholesalo way." "What is tho largest thermometer ever manufactured ?'' "The largest ihcrmometer I ever saw was nino feet long, and was on exhibi tion in one of tho fnirs of tho American Institute thirty or forty years ago ia Castle Garden ; but I havo no idou what has become of it."
