HOw eOId Pens &c Led.

Gold pens are tipped with iridium, making
what are commonly known as diamond
points.
The iridium for this purpose is found in
small grains in plantinum, slightly alloyed
with this latter metal In this form it is ex-
ceedingiy hard, and well adapted to the pur-
pose of the gold pen maker The gold for
pens is alloyed with silver to about sixteen
carats fneness, rolled into the strips, from
which the blanks are struck. The under
sides of the point is notched by small cir
cular saw, to receive the iridium point which
is selected with the aid of microscope. A
fux of boraz and blowpipe secure it to its
place. The point is then ground on a cop
per wheel with emery, The pen blank is
then rolled to the requisite thinnesss by
means of the rollers especially adapted to the
purpose, and tempered by blows from ham
mer. 1t is then trimmed around the edges,
stamped, and formed in a powerful press
The slit is now cut through the solid iridium
point by means of a thin copper wheel, fed
with the fine emery, and asaw extends the
aperture along the pen itself The inside
edges of the slit are smOOthed and polished
by the same means Of rapidly running
wheels and emery, and Furnishing and ham
mering, to produce the proper degree of elias
ticity, finish the work. Scientific AB3e7ica7s

Europe Arming

The principle business of the leading
European governments, at this moment
would seem to be the increase of their
respective ornaments. Russia is Increasing
her troops at every point on her Southwest
ern frontier Omar Pacha is placing the
Turkish army on a war footing, in view OF
the eventualities which the Porte fears will
occur among the Servians, who appear to be
steadily carrying out their design of uniting
all the Sclave population so as to bring out a
general movement in European Turkey
Austria, alarmed at these preparations on
the part of her neighbors, is arming also
The leading military authorities at Vienna,
say that she ought to have at least million
of men in the field, if she desires to remain
a great Power to preserve peace, or in case
of need to repel attack. Prussia, including
her recently acquired German dependencies
can bring into the field a million and a
quarter of men any day,-While France, all
the while proclaiming, the Empire IS
Peace, is acting as if the peace was to be
of shert duration.-Nenlphas Bulletin

There is no substitute for English hay
equal to the common millet, on farms where
q sufficient extent of meadow Is not already
established Indeed, we believe it is al
ready admitted by intelligent farmers that
| for horses and working oxen, good millet
hay IS more nutrious and better liked by
them than timothy hay. AIillet is a rapid
| growing crop, requiring but few weeks to
mature IN, and when sown on a light, warm,
well prepared soil, viii yield mere hay per
acre than the best timothy meadows 1t
may be SOwn during any leisure spell from
the middle of May to the last of June,
| though probably the best time to SOW the
seed is the first good, moist season that oc-
ours after the middle of May. No crop pays
better for well prepared mellow soil One
bushel Of seed is sufficient for two or three
acres, according to the strength of the soil
No attempt should be made to secure from
the same crop both seed and hay. When it
is desired to raise seed, half or two-thirds
Of the above quantity of seed is sufficient to
SOW. When seed is the object, it Is much
better to grow it in drills.
For seed, it should be harvested while the
seeds are soft, and before, but a small por-
tion of the stems have turned yellow In
curing, it should be exposed to the sun only
so long as is necessary for it TO wilt, and ex-
pei the external moisture it should then be
put up in cocks until cured, which, in good
weather viii require but short time.

a little corn meal or wheat shorts, makes as
