tled the South has prospered. Her
agricultural products have, been
more than doubled : her mines are
being developed; her mills are work
ing up her great staple, cotton.

manufacture that is necessary in
every well regulated family that has
been almost wholly overlooked.

we cannot. Let us .get to making

Mitchell Society, "Some notes on
the fertility of Physa Heterpstropha
Say," and he determines after patien t
watching that the age at which reN
production begins is five months;
that the frequency of broods is one
brood in something less than three
days ; that the broods average thirty.
Assuming that the reproductive pe
riod is six months, he calculates that
the offspring of a single pair 'would
number in two years 1,808,800.
These creatures, who are encumber
ed with'such a hard name, we believe
are commonly called snails. The
Professor's article indicates patient
investigation in a field Jhat has not
