Five years ago, we heard Prof. PumpelIy

he gave in brief outline, the results OF his Oh
servations abroad, confning himself mainly
toethe physical geography and geology of
China and Japan. The following summer,
the Smithsonian Institution, in its "Contribu-
tions to knowledge" published the same in
formation elaborated and accompanied bv mo-

lHE average price of hay in this State, jan
uary l, 1871 was $1,000.
Ihe following estimate of the acreage OF
York county is thought to be correct. "To-
tai acreage, 10000; acres in fields, 100000;
acres plowed in 1870, $4,000; in grass, 5000;
in corn, $500; in potatoes, 1900; in oats,
4,2OO; in wheat, $500; in rye, $50; in barley,
400; in buckwheat, 300.
AN important suggestion has been made by
Mr.. Lawes, of England, on the waste of food
during respiration, and its relationship to the
faltening of animals. He remarks that in the
case OF animals fed for the butcher the econo-
my OF the feeding process will be the greater,
the less the amount of food expended by res.
piralion, in the production of given amount
of increase; and it is equally obvious that
one ready and efficient means OF lessening the
proportion of waste or expenditure to the in
crease OF the products, is to lessen, as far as
possible, the time taken to produce it. In
other words, to fatten as qnickly as possible.
Thus, from experiments made by aim, he as
sures us that pig weighing 100 pounds will
II supplied with as much barley meal as he
can cat, consume 500 pounds of it, and double
his weioht-that is, increase from 100 pounds
to 200 pOunds-in seventeen weeks. He then
points out that it instead Of allowing the pig
to have as much barley meal as he will eat,
tho 900 pounds of meal had been made to
last many more weeks, the result would have
been that the animal would have appropri-
ated correspondingly larger proportion of
the food for the purposes of respiration and
pefsp'ration, and a correspondingly less pro-
portion in the production of increase. In
other words, if the 500 pounds of barley meal
were distributed over longer period of time,
it would give less increase in live weight, and
a larger proportion of it would be employed in
the mere maintenance of the life of the ami
NAL. Indeed, if The period of consumption of
the 500 pounds of meal be sufficiently extend
ed, the result will be that no increase what
ever will be produced, and that the whole OF
tue food, excepting the portion obtained as
manure, will be expended in sustaining the
animals existence.
The French Journal de Pharmacie con-
tains an account of various experiments made
in France on the best method of preserving
eggs-a subject of much importance there
Among the different processes, the best, and
at the same time one of the simplest, was
found to consist in rubbing some vegetable
oil (linseed especially on the egg, This pre-
venting any alteration for sufficient time,
and proving to be much more satisfactory
than any other plan hitherto recommended.
AN old agricultural laborer in England tried
muscular method of evangelizns his family.
Being demonstrated with by the pastor for
not bringing up" his hoys as he should, he
replied" 81 dunno 'ow It's, sir; order 'em
down to pray, highland mornin', and when
they won't so down knocks 'em down-snd

PETROLEUM AS FUEL.-There is a fair
prospect at last that crude petroleum can be
used advantageously as fuel for steam boilers.
The great difficulty hitherto has been :he
cloeging up of the tubes used for feeding the
flames by deposit OF solid caibonaceous mat
ter. This obstacle has at last been removed,
and there is a factory in Philadelphia which
is running night and day with no other fuel.
The fires have now been running six months
continually. There is no smoke from this
new fuel, 10 gas, and no t-ouble in feeding tue
furnaces; the engineer is also the fireman, as
he has only to turn stop.cock to increase or
diminish his fires. Having no ashes TO clean
out, and being able TO keep his engine room in
good order at all times, the smell of the burn
ing oil is scarcely perceptible. This material
for generating steam is likely to prove great
saving in large factories, as petroleum costs
Only about half as much coal, when used as
fuel, with very large saving in labor. 1t
generates steam much more rapidly than coal,
and with ordinary care is just as safe to use.
Ii it eau be used on ocean and river steamers
much of the room required for coal can be
devoted to storing cargo, thereby materially
increasing the profits OF the voyage.-Bost0n

The last rail OF this important road was laid on the
2etn January, thus completing the enterprise and

the same points.
By this line a SO the distance from Chicago TO tbe
