Plants in Bed Rooms.
BY DIR. j. IL. HANEAFORD.

| will briefly and very cheerfully
give my opinion on the matter Of
plants in bedrooms. The idea that
plants throw off nitrogen in the night
TO an injurious extent, is an orrone-
Gus one. While the breathing of am
imals, the burning Of wood, etc, con
tinually destroy the oxygen of the
air leaving an excess Of nitrogen,
the leaves Of plants absorb the car
bonic-acid thus produced, and restore
The purity OF the air by the exhaIa-
ton Of oxygen.
Ii may be remarked that il would
be possible to fill our rooms with va
riols articles to an extent to leave
too little room for air, of which we
can scarcely have too much, rs il is
our life TO a greater extent than
many suppose. Rooms should not
be SO q ,-ed as TO exclude all Of the
outward air. or prevent tho escape
Of carbouic-acid gas, or supposed
excess of nitrogen from the plants
There is more occasion TO dread this
fatal vapor than the terrible might.
air, " 50 ioolisbly feared by many.
To short, while our sleeping rooms
arc SO often too small, plants may
b3 kept in some other room. We
may res, assured that they will do
us far more good than harm that
this law Of compensation is merely
another term for the goodness Of the
Creator

Jersey is an Improbable cow to keep.
But where quality and richness are

il both pleasure and profit in keep

cream is surprising both in quantity
and quality. There is no greater

commands twice the price of ordinao

Tobacco in Wisconsin.

Various estimates have placed the
yield Of tobacco in Rock, Dane ard
Jefferson counties at 10000 cases,
these figures being based upon an
average Of 1900 lbs. per acre. A
case contains about 400 lbs. which
gives us total Of s 1000, 900 lbs. of To-
bacco. The estimate is too light.
We have taken pains to travel over
a large portion Of the tobacco pro-
ductlon districts to obtain facts AMI
figures, and talk with those wins are
IN position TO obtain reliable data
regarding the acr cage planted tobac
co this season, and our lowest figures
are 20, 900 cases. Most of the fields
have yielded more than 1900 lbs to
the acre, and but few less than that
amount From 1900 to 1000 lbs. is
DO unfrequent yield, while we have
seen many fields which experienced
tobacco men have estimated at g.
200 lbs. TO the acre. The tobacco
grown in the States of Connecticut,
New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio In
diana, Illinois and Wisconsin is al
most exclusively for cigars, and is
designated as "seed leaf" The
greater portion of it is manufactured
in the United States, much of the
finest quality being sold as imported
stock. This tablet of prices is from
the Tobacco leaf and is of interest in
this connection: This past has been
a great week for seed leaf, over 3
