A writer in an Australian paper states that in many
districts the leaves of celery are highly esteemed as food for
mulch cows, and are often preferred to red clover. The
cows are said to eat them most greedily, and to yield on this
food a far sweeter and richer milk than on any other. Some-
times the leaves are cut up small, scalded with hot water,
and given as a mash mixed with bran, and sometimes they
are fed whole in their natural state along with the other
ordinary food.

the next day, although it showed no positive symptoms of
madness. The lad was last week placed under medical care,
as he was attacked by hydrophobia, from which he died in
great agony.

carried on in Berlin with a view to determining the practica-
bility of substituting steam for horse power on tramways

Mr. Plimsoll. M.P., addressed his constituents-at
Derby on Monday night, condemning the Treaty of Berlin as
not having brought honour, and as not likely in the future
to bring peace, fie considered Cyprus to be useless as a base
of operations against Russia, and believed it was only
acquired, in the general defeat of the Government's policy
at Berlin, for the sake of bringing bomething home. The
acquisition had served its purpose when the cheers which
greeted the Plenipotentiaries died away ; and, if the Ministry
could find a decent excuse, it was his opinion that they
would be glad to be rid of Cyprus. Mr. Plimsoll announced
his intention to retire from the representation

Experiments are, it is stated, being made by the
Government of New Zealand with a view to aulimatizing
the English humble-bee. The object of the importation is
to assist the New Zealand agriculturists in cultivating their
fields of clover. Common bees are not strong enough to
force their way into the petals of the clover flower, and thus
fertilize the plants as they fly from one to another. For this
purpose, therefore, the humble-bee is needed; but so far the
in s's sent out have been destroyed. Attempts to acclima-
tize the common bee iu some hot climates have so far proved
u,-;eles. After a short period they quit - ---
the hives and cannot
be enticed back.
