especially its human occupants that 1t ia beautiful and

who are devoted to agricultural pursuits but who,
strange say do not dwell the lands they cultivate
but live clustered together in villages and towns Of
which are of considerable magnitude the cities contain

some of them probably double that amount that
the inhabitants generally Of primitive, simple,

BONES.

The following shows what is done with
bones in New York. The same operations
are carried on upon an extensive scale IN the
vicinity of Boston:
The price paid for bones varies according
to quality. Thigh bones of tuliocks are made
into handles of toothbrushes, and are OF the
most value, being worth 10 or II cents ariece.
The Jaw bone rank next, and sells for SIS per
thousand. The 'short" bones, which are
thrown from the family table, are worth 81
cents per bushel. A Mr.. Green in New York,
paws 800 per day for bones, and there are
many in that city who are engaged 10 the
business who pay an equal amount. Ox
hoois are worth $40 per ton, horse boots, aud
sheep boots and horns SIS per tor. On the
arrival of the bones at the factory, the thigh
and law bones are sawed 80 rs to admit the
removal Of the marrow. They are then thrown
into a vast cauldron, and boiled until all the
marrow and fatty substances attached to them
are thoroughly extracted. The fat is then
skinned IF and placed in coolers, and the
bones are deposited in heaps for assortment.
The thigh bones are placed IN one heap Tor
the turner's; the Jaws and others bones suita-
bic for buttons are placed in a second pile;
the bones suitable for "bone black come No.
3, and the remainder are ground up Tor phos-
phates and manures. Bone black ia used nv
sugar r%efners, and is worth p and 81
ce.ts per pound. Stuart's refinery pays $40.
900 annually for this article, and each OF the
other ten reineries pay nearly the same
amount. Mr.. Greene realizes about Sl9,OUO
Der aunum from soap fat produced by bone
boiling.
