Discovery Of Gas.

Great was the amaZement of Eng
land when at the close of the last CEN
fury, William Murdoch discovered the
use of combustible air Or gas. So little
was the invention understood and be-
lieved in by those who had not seen it
in use, that even great and wise men
laughed at the idea. elbow could
there be 81 light without wick?" said
q member of parliament, when the sub
ject was brought up before the House.
Even Sir Humphrey Davy ridiculed the
idea of lighting the towns with gas, and
asked one of the proprietors if they
meant to take the dome of St. Paups
for q gas meter. Sir Walter Scott, too,
made himself merry over the idea Of
illuminating London by smoke, though
he was glad enough, not long after, to
make his own house at AbbottsfOrd
light and CHEEKY ON wintry nights by
the use Of that very smoke. When the
House of Commons was lighted by gas,
the architect imagined that the gas ran
on fire through the pipes, and he, there
fore, insisted on their being placed sew
eral inches from the wall, for fear Of
the building taking fire; and members
might have been seen touching the
pipes with their gloved fingers and
wondering that they did not feel warm.
The first shop lighted in London by the
new method was Mr.. Ackermann's in
the Strand, in 1910; and one lady of
rank was 50 delighted with the bril-
liancy of the gas lamp On the counter,
that she asked to be- allowed to take it
home in her carriage. DR.. Murdoch
was too busy with other pursuits to
continue to study the use Of gas, and,
though he was undoubtedly the first to
apply it to practical purposes, many
others laid claim to the honor, and 9TH
er people quickly reaped the benefit of
his cleverness and ingenuity. In this
he shared the general fate OF inventors.

Hn.Rreeding fer Pc ultry,

Breeders are prone to advance ultra views
on the subject of io-breeding of poultry, bias
ed on mere prejudice or constrained opinion
OF Inc term. All of our strains of pure bred
poultry with but few exceptions, have been
produced by systematic course of inbred
lng Judlclousiy carried out. Blackwell. of
Leicester sheep fame, intensified and inn.
proved his sheep by an intelligent n-breedinoi
OF such animals as possessed, in an emine5t
degree, the qualities he wished to intensity
and perpetuate. In horse breeding his il
carried on by old breeders, with most excel
lent results.
Knowing the above, it behooves us to know
just when to bring the dividing lines together
so as to combine those qualities in the off
spring from the animals or birds coupled
which we desire to secure permanency for.
we mold to the opinion that with fowls more
care Is necessary to prevent the intensified
tioh Vi PAD qualities in adopting any system
Oh ih-oreedlng than with most of the animals
which require more than year to give them
age enough to properly bear offspriog. We
believe that an Infusion of new blood Ia he a
good thing to do every second year perhans
every year--thcush We would advise faDciers
TO select male birds from The same strain. so
as to make breeding for particular points far
more certain than it would be If a male bird
was selected from any, or no particular
strain, merely becauss he was fine individual.

Hyacin ths in Pots.


For hyacinths there is nothing better than
common Hover pots, and in those of 81 inch
single bulbs may be Powered IN most salts
factory manner. The pots usually EMPLOYED
are inch and inch, the last named being
required only for selected bulbs, grown for
exhibition. A rich light soil is indispensable.
and it shoeld consist of at least one-haIt of
good rotten manure, and the remainder
turfy loan with liberal allowance of sharp
sand. The mixture should be in a moder-
ately moist condition when ready for use,
FIN the pots quite full of soil, and then press
the bulb down into it and press the soil down
round the bulb to finish the operation. If
poited loosely they will not thrive: if ported
too firmly, they will rise up as soon as thew
Degln to grow and be one sided, Thew
should be neatly covered with soil. excent
wnen grown in small pots, aud then tbev
must be only half covered In order to afford
them the largest possible amount of root
room. When petted, the coolest place should
be found Tor them, and they should not have
q drop OF water, unless they go absolutely
dry, until they begin 10 grow freely, and are
IN the enjoyment OF full daylight. The pots
any out-of-the way place, where neither sun.
nor frost nor heavy rains will affect them.
ihey must be taken out as wanted for fore.
ing. For short time they must be placed
in subdued daylight that the blanched
growth may acquire healthy green hue
slowly, and they must be kept cool in order
that they shall grow very little until I tbev
have acquired healthy color.
Those to bloom at Christmas should he
potted in September, those to follow NAV he
potted month later. If long succession is
required sufficient number should be potted
every two or three weeks TO the end of Inc
year. liquid manure is employed at ali it
should be used constantly and extremely
weak, until the flowers begin to expand. and
then pure soft water should be used Instead
1t matters not what is the particular consti-
tuition of the liquid manure, but it must he
weak, or it will do more harm than good.
The spikes should be carefully tied TO neat
stakes ia good time and constant watch
kept to see that they are not cut or bent, as
they rapidly develop beyond the range al
lowed them by their supports. When done
towering remove the flower stems, and keep
the plants in frames supplied regularly with
water until the leaves die down; then Law
them on their sides in q dry sunny place
with their heads TO The north for about ten
days; then shake them out, rub Of the roots
and clean them up and store in a dry place.
