NEW ELEsATo..-W are glad Ia
learn that there is project on foot to
construct a new grain warehouse at
our depot, If carried out, ii will of
course be done AT once, in order to be
ready for the years crops. Upton
should, and undoubtedly will, have
at least two good grain buyers, with
every facility for handling the prod
ucts of Cedar's broad acres. We eX-
pect 10 be able to announce such a
state of things in very few weeks
when Upton will be, as it has been
before, the best grain market within a
radius of twenty-five miles.

FLOATING MELON GARDENs.-In the beau
tiful Valley of Cashmere, among the Himala-
yam mountains, lies lovely lake called Dal.
Floating about on its surface, sometimes car
ried by the winds from one end of the lake TO
the other, are numerous small islands, on
which grow the finest cucumbers and the
most luscious melons known. The way in
which these floating gardens are made is cur.
ious. All about the main shores Of the lake
grow quantities of reeds, sedges, and water
lilies When these grow very thickly togeth.
err people cut them from the roots which hold
them near the shore. The leaves of the plants
are then spread out over the stems, making a
sort of trestlework to support the soil with
which it is next to be covered. After this has
been done the seeds are planted and the
floating garden Is left to care for itself until
the fruits are ready for picking.

FARM AND GARDEN.


Every good groom knows that sound oats
and beans in due proportion, and at least a
year old, are the very best food for gallop-
ing horse-the only food on which it is pos
sible to get the very best condition Out OF a
race.horse or q hunter. 1t also has recently
become known that horses do slow work and
get fat, indeed too fat, on maize, Indian corn,
which is frequently one.third cheaper than
the best oats. In the East, horses are lea on
barley, and it is a popular idea with Engiish
officers who have lived in Persia and syria
that the change of food from barley to oats
often, when imported, produces blindness IN
Arab horses Now although no men under
stand better or so well how to get blood hor
SEES INTO galloping condition as English
grooms, they do not, and few of their masters
do, know the Ieason why oats and beans are
the best food for putting muscular food on
horse. The agricultural chemist steps in
here, makes the matter very PLAIN, and shows
that if you want pace, Indian corn, although
nominalIy cheaper, Is not cheap at all. When
we teed a bullock, q sheep, or pig for sale,
after it has passed the store stage we want to
make it fat as quickly and as cheaply as pos
sible; but with horse for work the object is,
give him lnuscle-in common language, hard
flesh. There are times when it is profitable
to make horse fat, as, for instance when he
is going up for sale. For this purpose an a.
dltion of about a pound and half of oil
cake to his ordinary food has good effect.
1t is especially useful when horse that has
been closely clipped or singed is in low con-
ditlon. 1t helps on the change to the new
coat by making him fat. A horse in low con-
dition changes his coat very slowly.
When from any cause there Is difficulty in
getting supply of the best oats, an excellent
mixture may be made of crushed maize and
beans, in the proportion Oftwothirds of maize
and one of beans, which exactly afford the
proportions OF flesh-forming and fatforming
food. Bran is very valuable food in a stable
for reducing the inaammatory effect of oats
and beans Made into mashes it has cool
ing and laxative effect, but used in excess, es-
pecially in dry state, 1t is apt to form stony
secretiOns in the bowels Of the horse. Stones
produced from the excessive use of bran have
been taken out of horses after death weighing
several pounds.-London Live Stock do Ur'sal.

THE EYE-ScIence gives US interesting de
tails about what the human eve has been and
what it may become. The Nedas Of India,
which are the most ancient written dOcu-
lnents. attest that in times the most remote,
but still recorded in history, only two colors
were known, black and red 4 very long
time elapsed before the eye arrived at the per
ception Of the color yellow, and a still longer
time before green was distinguished; and II
is remarkable that in the most ancient Ian.
guages the terms which designated yellow in.
sensibly passed to the Specification of green.
The Greeks had according to the received
opinion now, the perception of colors very
well developed; and yet authors of the more
recent date assure US that, In the time of Alex.
ander, Greek painters had For fundamental
colors only white, black, red and yellow. The
words to designate blue and violet were want.
ing to the Greeks in the NEST ancient times
OF their history; they called these cOlors gray
and black. Ii is thus that the colors of the
rainbow were only distinguished gradually,
and the great Aristotle only knew four of them
Il is a well-known fact that when the colors
OF the prism are photographed there remains
outside the limit of the blue and violet ia the
spectrum distant impression, which our
eyes do not recognize as a color. According
20 Psychologists, a time will come when the
human eye will be perfected 81 as to discern
this c0lCr as well as the others.

An accomplished prestldigtateur calling
himself "Le Commandeur Cazaneuve' is at
present amusing Chicago with some rather
astonishing feats of legerdemain, One Of
his tricks is to place an empty stout leather
trunk into another barely large enough to
hold it, fasten down the lid and place it in the
cabinet;" then bring out the trunks, unlock
and open them and out comes-the profess
sor's wife! In reference to this trick the IN
ter-Occah relates:
Saturday evening, Mr. Gregg, OF Messrs
Gregg & Berdan, trunkmakerS, was convinced
upon seeing the boX-trick that there was
some panel in both trunks, and offered to
make trunk into which lie Commanders
could not enter. The offer was readily &C.
cepted, and last evening during the perform
ance, Mr.. Gregg h~'u.h the trunk here and
sat upon il until the time arrived for the per.
torrance of the liIck. AT about ten o'clock
the trunk was h" rGht upon the stage, the
Commander NJ, having seen it before.
The old trunk AS bound with ropes and
duly sealed and lied and placed inside Mr..
Crego's new boz mich he locked and care
fully fastened thu ches Mdle. Cazeneuve
came on with he eek over her arm, stepped
into the cabinet, &, curtain was drawn, and
in about four minutes the signal was given
that the entrance had been made. The cur.
tam was raised and the trunks examined by
Messrs Gregg Il Berdsn, who were salts
fed that they were in the same condition as
when the curtain dropped. Upon explora-
ton, of course, Mdlle. Cazeneuve was found
safely tied IN the sack at the bottom of the
inner trunk.
The trunk was made Of the strongest mater
ial and in the strongest way, with round
lock and patent catches on the front. The
makers disclaim any Intervention on the part
OF the Commandeur in its manufacture, and
say they made II with the honest intention to
battle the wonderful presildigitateur.
