Many experiments made with spider web as a substi tute for silk have proved the far reaching possibilities of the new material. The thread of the spader was found invaluable in the produc tion of so-called reticles, crosses or nets of fine threads placed in the focal plane of telescope*, to deter mine the exact position of an ob served object. Some ten years ago a French missionary started the systematic rearing of two kinda of apideta far their web, .

Lambs bring take as much in market as sheep, iacinding the wool derived front the sheep, and the market is seldom overstocked with lambs. - Blackberries are high this year, owing to short crop. If growers would give the canes fertilizers, both spring and fall, the)* would find it profitable. Keep the cabbages well worked. The more one cultivates the crop the more thrifty the plants. An oc casional application of a teaspoon ful of nitrate of soda, scattered around each pl-nt and worked into the soil shows excellent effect after a rain. Bran is probably the cheapest food that caa be pamcbased and brought on the farm, with the exoep lion of cotton seed and linseed meal. One advantage in favor of bran is that H h rich in mineral matter, and when fed with skim milk to pigs it gives excellent results. It alao adds largely to the value of the Whenever "sour" gnus is seen in laams it is a sunt indication that the land requires lime, which neu tralizes the acidity of Um soil. An application of lime hi the tall will sometimes maka a very decided chance in the gram the following spaing. All the down are bene fited bjr lime, and lime alio gives good results tn Kentucky blue grass, which is one of the best va rieties for lawns. The watering troughs on some fanus are never scrubbed and have a slimy appearance. They are breeding places of disease, as any disease affecting a single animal is more easily communicated to the others through the drinking water than ia any other manner. While it may be impossible to prevent the animals from drinking from tlx same source, yet every trough should be cleaned daily. Ducklings will perish if allowed on ponds of cold water, but after the water becomes warm they will enjoy the exercise and And consid erable food. It ii claimed that the Pekia variety thrives without ponds which is true; but all varieties pre fer water in which to swim, and will keep in more thrifty condition if given such privileges; but young ducks should not be permitted on ponds until they arc feathered. Progressive dairymen are not now satisfied with less than 300 pounds of butter per year front each cow. Those wlio ln-lieve thai there is nothing in the breed, and who buy frcsli cows to take the places of those that liecome dry, do not realize onc-thinl as much butter as could be derived from better cows. U'lien one cow pro daces as much in one year as sonic do in three years, the dairyman who does not raise his heifer calves loses more than be can gain in the future. It may cost something to keep a calf, but if it is well bred it wiD repay all expenses and more. When seeding to crimson clover this year do not delay until late in the fall. One reason why crimson clover fails with some is that they sow the seed too late to allow the plants to make headway before winter. Ob sandy noils the frosts doaa act injure, bat on henry land they me aniratimta thrown np. The land for crimson clover should also be well prepared, and no one ahonld expect a good catch crop when the seed is sown on land that has received an preparation. Lime always benefits cm won clover if broadcasted and harrowed in when seeding, about ten bushels of lime per acre. —Philadelphia Record. HIS SIGHT THREATENED.

He had left his horse outside while he was in the store making new pur chases, when a little fat German canie by and seemed greatly struck by its appearance. He waited un til Johnson came out, and, ffsnting himself directly in front of him, he asked : "Doo you vast to seO dot horse?" "Va'al said Johnson. "I tank "How mooch?" asked the Ger man. "Va'al," said Johnson, "no less dan a hundred an' twenty five, but I don't tank he looks very good."

After a night of extremely hard luck Smyth was about to take in his lines shortly after dawn. "Hen goes for a weak fish, a bass or a skate," he said, throwing over a line freshly baited. "If I don't get something; I will pull up and go home." While lighting his pipe the old fisherman was almost jerk ed from the pier by a strong pull at his liue. He fount he had some thing too heavy for his rod. Capt. McFarland got a net and went down the piling to the water's edge. He discovered that a large turtle, cov ered with barnacles, had swallowed the bail and hook. With the aid of McFarland's net and several lines passed under the turtle it was lifted to the pier. The turtle put up a strong fight on the pier. A boat-hook was jabbed in its right aide and turned it over on its bock. "Pop tell mc a fairy story." "I don't know any fairy stories." "Oh, yes you do.

The hunting of birds of bright plumage, for the milliner)- tr.ule, furnishes a profitable occupation nowadys for great numbers of na tive Indians in Central and South Africa, the blow-gun—a long tube made from the stem of a certain kind of palm—being the weapon ordinarily employed. Fine-pointed darts wrapped with palm-cotton to make them' fit the bore, serve as projectiles, propelled by the breath and in Brar.il and Rcuador they are usually poisoned with the deadly "cural"—a mixture of snake vcuom and other powerful toxic agents. The poison makes the slightest scratch fatal, but not instantly, so hat the stricken bird does not frighten its comi>aniotis by tumb ling with a flop to the ground. Thus an entire flock may be des troyed one at a time by a single marksman, and little damage is dooe to the precious skins. From Ecuador come great numbers of humming birds.obtained iu this way, aod not one skin in a thous and is prcccptibly injured. For some reason not satisfactori ly explained, white men are unable to acquire the art of using the blow-pipe—that is to say, with darts. Sometimes they learn how to employ this weapon of precision for the projection of small clay balls, to kill birds, but ordinarily the natives attend to the business of destruction, skinning the feath ered creatures as fast as they arc secured, and disposing of tliein to white traders. Iu this manner im mense numbers of brilliaut tropi cal birds arc exported from Brazil, mostly byway of Para, while fror- Gtmuniala, Costa Rico and Hond uras come the sii]>erb long-tailed trogons, which in beauty rival the bifil* jf paradise. The neighborhood of Bogota is one of the moist productive regions in the world for beautiful birds. There are deep vullevs ami lofty mountains round altout, so that species lielouging to various cli matic zones from tropical to sub arctic arc represented. Long ago, Europeans skilled in the art taught some of the natives how to skin birds for market, and today many of the Indians are able to do this kind of work as well as the average taxidermist, the result being that tlie skins are exported to Uurope and the United States in a very fine state. One of the most remarkable meth ods of bird-catching is employed by the Indians of Ecuador for taking the sky-scarching condor, which has to be sought »n the loftiest sum mits of the nioutitaius. The hunt er digs a hole in the ground large enough to hide him and ov'cr it spreads a coW's hide. Close by the hole he has placed the carcass of an ancient horse, driven to the spot and killed there, to serve as bait. When the condor arrives and is busy feeding, it is seized by the legs. A few years- ago the rhea, or "South American ostrich," was well-nigh exterminated in Patago nia, because of the demand for its feathers as material for feather dusters. Only when it became so scarce that the pursuit of it was no longer profitable did the slaughter of this valuable and interesting species cease.—Saturday Evening Post. TO MY FRIENDS.

Thare are many stories of the young King, says Colliers Weekly, which testifies to his good heart, and others which would seem to imply, that one gursscs from his appearance* that he poss sses.also, a saving sense of humor. When the King passes in his car riage through the streets of Madrid, anyone is privileged to run beside it and throw petitions at him. The custom is mediaeval and danger ous to the King, and frequently to the petitioner. The other day an old woman darted toward the King's carriage, but a Guardia Civil, mistaking her motive, seized her roughly and threw her into the crowd. Instantly the King ordered the carriage to be stopp d. and, jump ing down, ran back to the police man. "Why !id you touch that wo man?" he demanded. "You must never lay your hands roughly upon a woman? You have doae very ill." Then he turned to the old lady, and, raising his hat, said, "I will take your petition, madam." And as she handed it to him 'he thanked her and bowed.—Ex.
