NEOSS AGATES.

A correspondent Of the Cincinnati Com
me'cial, writing from Sherman, Black
Hills, Wyoming Territory, says:
"Neerly every visitor to these hills and
plains Is an anxious and excited seeker after
mess a9"tes'-a name applied to a species
Of siiiciuus formation that has been wonder
faiiy aud beautifully iguEed and foweled
through the united agencies Of iroa solutions
penetrating it. and then becoming exposed
to the action Of the air. going through a sur
and wind-drying process after the waters of
some river bed or lake had evaporated-
Some Of these n1oss agates are very tastefu.iy
iulaid with exact limitations OF piue trees,
vines, cedar forests, hedges. tiaius Of cars,
stars. figures. and ala, st every imaginable
drawing. The agaJes found along tie line
Cf The Union Pacific are OF four dIif-rent col
ors. Vartakipg of the uanes ct the localities
where found, as follows: The Cheyenne
brown agate, Granger water agate. Church
Buttes light blue agate. and the Sweetwater
cream agate. The ,wo latter are the most
valuable and most Gejicarely formed
The mo t extensive agate beds are foGnd
in the viclnitjes of Church Buttes and Gran
ger, distant about ei Int hundred and eighty
miles west OF Omaha. These beds are about
fifty yards wide and nearly oue hundreI
long. being isolated from each other at a dis
taEce Of FROM one to two miles. As you ap-
preach them you observe a large patch of
smooth, black, round cobble stones, and be-
tween these lie, almost concealed, the differ
ent sized and shaped moss agates, and, occa
sionaily sparkling among them, a bright to-
paz AID brown and e To- stie rkeI ccrnehap.
The intrinsic value Of the agate consists il
its display of m0sS-the vine and cedar for
est being the most priced for jeweIry SETS
In one hours time l have gathered half
gallon, some extremely pretty. and know
of no pleasure. either in hunting buffalo or
catching trout. half so exciting and full Of
glory as the finding Of choice agate. |
have seen staid old men search in silence for
few minutes for real sinner and when
they came upon it pick it up suddenly, take
of their hats, swing them in the air. lump
up and shout aloud, like schcolboys that had
just been let out for two weeks vacation.
The very novelty of finding precious stones
among black rocks, far out on the plains,
many miles from homo or habitation, is
delight 50 pleasing and intoxicating that it
takes mighty nerve to resist the pressure
Of ones making fool of himself Good
agates are worth, as jewels, Fl ON three to
five dollars apiece As novelties they are

CURIOUS EFFECTS OF PINE TREES ON TIE
SOFIA remarkable instance Of the effects
of pine trees on the soil in which they grow
has been published in the Woods and Waters
Reports Of the north of France. \ forest
near Ndlenciennes, comprising about eighteen
hundred acres of scrub and stuuted oak and
birch, was grubbed up in l643 and replaced
by Scotch frs (pinus SiiUest1iS.) The soil
composed of silicious sands mingled with a
small quantity of clay, was in some places
very wet. 1t contained two or three fine
springs, from one of which flowed small
stream. The frs succeeded beyond expect
alton, and large handsome stems now grow
vigorously over the whole ground 1t was
in the early stages of their growth that the
remarkable effect above referred TO was no.
ticed. The soil began to dry; the snipes
that once frequented the place migrated to
more congeniai locality: the ground be-
came drier and drier, until at last the springs
and the stream ceased to flow. Deep trench
es were dug to lay open the sources Of the
springs and discover the cause of the di wing
up; but nothing was fund except that the
roots OF the frs had penetrated the earth to
the depth Of five OF six feet B brings were
then made, aud six feet below the source of
the spring body Of water was met with cf
considerable depth, from which, it was in
terred, the spring had formerly been fed
Bat IN what way its level had been lowered
by the action of the frs could not be deter
mined, and is still a matter Of speculation.
But the fact remains, and may be utalz.d
by any one interested in tree culture For
years it has been turned to account in Gas
cony, where the lagoons that iuterscct the
dunes have been dried up by planting tie
Ptaus mdritinaHS along their margin. N.uce

leafy trees feed springs and maintain the
moisture Of the soil, the contrary function is
reserved for spine or needle bearing trees,
which dry the soil and improve its quality
Our War Office might perhaps DO well to
take note thereof, seeing that the forts now
building at the mouth Of the Midway show
tendency to sink into the soft marshy soil.
If fhe ground can be consolidated by plant
ations Of the maritime pine. it would be
good economy to have them planted Cham

HIGHEST MoUNTAINs.-The geography Of
our country Is one of the unsettled things :
at least, ones knowledge Of it cannot be
relied on unless he keeps himself well posted
IN regard to the latest discoveries and inves-
legations. Many well-informed person
might bluDder il asked, for example, which
Is the highest mouutain~peak in the United
States. The question has long been unset
tied; but now the contest seems to be
between Mount Whitney, in California. and
Sopri's Peak in Colorado. Mount Whitney
was accurately measured two or three years
ago by Mr.. King, one of the State Geologi-
cal Survey, to point IA ,740 feet in height.
The peak was inaccessible beyond that
point. but he estimated that the summit
rose three or four hundred feet above him.
Therefore he reported Mount Whitney to be
at least 5000 feet high. But Sopri's Peak
has never been measured and as it towers
above many other surrounding peaks which
are known to be upward of $4,000 feet, it
may exceed Mount Whitney. -Four peaks
OF the Rocky Mountains in Colorado are
without doubt between 1900 and IA, 500
feet IN height. These are Longs, Gray's
and Flke's Peaks, and Mount Lincoln.
Mount Shasta, in California, a peak of the
Cascade Range. is l4,40O feet high. and
Mount Hood, in Oregon, is l4.0OO feet in
height. The highest peak in the Northern
States is Mount Washington. one of tbp
White Mountains, in New Haropshire
which measures ,428 feet and the highest
In the Southern States is Black Mountains
6,7O7 feet, of the Allegheny Mountains, in
North Carolina.-T Teachers A2rocaie.
