Silk Culture in Pennsylvania.

A number of prominent citizens in
Philadelphia have formed company to
attempt silk culture in Pennsylvania.
They propose to purchase tract of
land upon the Pennsylvania Railroad
for silk farm, on which they will es-
tablish a school and erect forty cot
tages, each of which latter is to be sur
rounded by mulberry trees. Compe-
tent teachers are to be engaged to in
struct the cottagers in the different
branches of the silk industry. The
company have already made expert
ments with the silk worm in different
parts of the State of Pennsylvania; and
the success attending theg'e was such as
to tempt them to make the present ven
ture. they have also been encouraged
by experiments made in the more south
erIy States. In Alabama, for example,
a MIR Lowery obtained from the cocoons
of 500 silk worms silk for twenty spools
of thread He fed the worms on the
white mulberry tree, and so far no evil
dence of muscardine has developed it
self. That this company will be COM
pletely successful in their first venture,
is not to be hoped for. IC will be enough
for beginning that the practicability of
the enterprise on American soil be de-
monstrated. This assured, skill and
labor will furnish the rest. just now
we are importing annually over S6,000,-
600 worth of the raw material alone.
If it is proven that the industry is suited
to this climate, this money will be kept
at home and the major portion of it, of
course, will go to remunerate our own
labor,

Agriculture as a Profession.

Certainly no pursuit is more useful or
honorable in its following than agricul-
ture; no profession affords such scope
for study, research, investigation or the
application of scientific principles; no
calling is so comprehensive in its de-
mands upon all the faculties of mind
and body; no avocation is so healthful
or so certain of remuneration; no en-
ployment is so independent, so en-
nobling; none in such close communi-
on with the Author of the Universe
none so free from the harassing ankle
ties, the demoralizing speculations, the
alluring temptations or the possible dis
asters than surround other professions !;
none presents greater opportunities for
calm reflection, development Of self-re-
lance and true manhood, or the culti-
Yation of kindly sentiments and neigh

st. Louis is the hottest place in the
world. People are dying there from
the heat by the dozens.r
sob, l know they are now, and 1
don't wonder at it. People have be-
come so everlastingly delicate these
days that they can't stand nuthin'.
Now, when | lived in st. Louis it was
inhabited by a different breed of cats.
In them days the regular temperature
was from two hundred and fifty to three
hundred in the shade"
Here the member got out of the room,
unperceived by grandfather who con-
tinued:
"That made it kind of pleasant and
healthy. But one summer, right in the
middle of harvest, the thermometer fell
down to 105, an never see such dis
tress in all my life. People just liter
ally froze to death. If your grandfather
hadn't been tougher than pine knot
hole, I'm sure he wouldn't be here now
to tell it. But had lots of heavy cloth
in and managed to worry through.
There's somethin in the air now that re-
minds me of tibet desperate time, and
I'm afraid history is to be repeated"
and he began blowing on his finger ends,
at the same time turning around to see
what effect was being produced by the
recital.
Finding himself alone, he said:
"All right; can stand it if they can.
| was only tellin' the story that they
might know little of the history of
their own country; but if they don't
want to hear it, they needn't. If they
prefer to remain as ignorant as the
beasts of the field, it amt my loss. For
my part I'll go down to the ice-house.
It can't be very much cooler there than
it is here" and picking up his cane and
fan, he went.-OI City Derrick.

Cream of Different Cows.


1t is believed by some dairymen that
like in character that if churned to-
gether there will be danger OF loss from
one portion coming sooner than the
other, and the washing away OF the
slow cream in the buttermilk. There is
no doubt that cream from different
cows, if churned separately, will show
q difference in the time required for
churning as there is in the color, con-
sisteney, or flavor with butter. But, in
all our long experience as q butter
maker, we have never found any evi
dence going to show that properly
mixed cream is wasted in churning. Ii
We mix two parcels of cream of differ
ent temperatures, we expect the mixture
to show the average temperature of the
two messes. If one gallon shows a tenn
perature of 60 deg and another gallon
at GA deg. is mixed with it, we expect
the two to show a temperature of 62
deg. If one COW yields very yellow but
ter, and another that which is very white,
we should expect, if we churned the
cream from both together, to obtain a
shade in the butter that would be be-
tween the two extremes. And so, if the
cream from two cows, one giving soft
and the other hard butter, be churned
together, we should certainly expect to
harden the one and soften the other.
Very similar results may be expected
from mixing different samples of cream,
which, if churned separately, would be
changed to butter in varying periods of
time; the one may retard or hasten the
other, but usually this is the only effect
which would be noticed. Even if there
be a. slight loss from churning old cows
and heifers' cream together-which we
doubt-we do not believe it would be
good economy to churn the two separ-
ately, nor advisable for farmers to be
to the trouble to keep only old or young
cows in the same herd.-N. E. Farmer.

Daisies, over the hill
Stretched like a winding sheet,
NiOlets here at my feet,
Poppies ablaze in the wheat
And peace at the mill.
Thrift and content at the mill;
Grasses that bow and beat
All day with a tender thrill,
At touch of the tireless feet
Fitting hither at will,
Going and coming at will,
While the land is heavy with heat,
And the sun from her curtained seat
Looks down, insatiate STILL
Lilies under the hill
Drink of the light their fill,
And roses are lavish Of sweet,
And scatter their petals at viii,
White petals about the feet
Coming over the hill.

Deprived by the holidays Of the principal
market day, the London corn trade has been
very quiet. Transactions mainly retail. Any
elements of strength which, under ordinary
circumstances would have been apparent have
been totally eliminated from trade by the ex-
ceedingly heavy arrivals from abroad, and
values have consequently evinced declining
tendency. Indeed all classes Of foreign wheat
have only been saleable alta redu ton of fully
a shilling on a fortnight. nor has the conces-
sion attracted any improvement in demand, as
buyers do not appear to think the lowest point
is yet touched, and consequently have abstained
from purchasing excepting such quantities as
Immediate needs dictated.
The necessity of rapidly clearing grain laden
ships in port has, therefore, caused most, of the
corn to be put in grainaries, which arerapidly
filling up. The augmentation of stocks will
probably be considerable, as enormous ship
ments of wheat and maize from America are
flooding the market just at a time when buyers
seem least disposed to operate.
Political Influences having ceased to affect
trade, an idea as to the future course Of prices
must be looked for in the legitimate action of
supply and demand, and although at the mo-
ment great depression prevails, and values may
possibly recede, yet further increased activity
and a healthier trade, no doubt at a low rate Of
values, may be confdentially expected when
the bulk of American shipments is received
and peace settled. The floating cargo trade for
wheat has been dull at about shilling decline.
Maize has given way fully six pence. Barley
fairly steady.
