SCIENTIFIC.

Industrial application Of Furnace iSlGg.
Among the various uses 20 which the
Stag of blast furnaces Is now successfully
applied, besides as q material for road
metal, may be mentioned the employ
ment of Stag sand for making concrete,
building blocks, mortar and cement.
The cement is composed of Stag sand
with common lime and iron oxides, and
its strength is said to be but little in
ferior to that of Portland cement, while
its price Is not one-fourth. Stag sand,
with about ten per cent. of common
slaked lime, makes a good mortar.
Concrete is either made from Stag sand
or Stag shingle, the latter being well
suited for covering roads and foot paths.
Stag wool produced by the impact of 2
steam jet with stream of molten Stag,
is used for covering steam boilers, steam
pipes, ice houses and cisterns, as pro-
lection against fire and as filter of
chemicals, in all of which applications
its superior adaptedness, on the score Of
economy and efficiency, is generally
admitted. Again paving blocks and
building bricks are made by pulverizing
the solid Stag and then pressing the
bricks in a press-a very remarkable
property of these bricks, as stated, being
that nails can be driven into them with
out causing their splitting, and the
bricks harden more and more with age.
Another production from this material
is an impure quality of glass-the
molten Stag being taken, in this process
in ladle from the blast furnace and
poured into Siemen's furnace, where
soda and silica are added.

Secret Chinese Tribunals.

The Chinese in California have their
own judicial tribunals before which
they try and punish offenders in all the
grades of crime in the calendar, and
some which are not. They have secret
organizations known as '-Hoeys," the
object of which is to protect their own
countrymen from our laws, aud to en-
force laws of their own making. Their
tribunals are held in secret, and they
administer such punishment as they see
fit. The penalty of death is enforced
very often for the most trivial offenses,
as, for instance, neglecting to pay
debt. If the culprit is not in custody
when the offence with which he is
charged is investigated and he is de-
clared to be guilty, then rewards for
his assassination are offered, written,
of course, in Chinese characters, and
publicly posted. Ii is with great diff
Guilty that Chinese criminals are con-
victed in our Courts. Officers are bribed
20 release them from custody, and
Cinnamon witnesses in Court will COM
NIT perjury to get them clear, in order
that they may be tried before their own
tribunals. A Chinaman stands in utter
fear of telling the truth In our Courts
if it should tend to convict, for he
knows that the vengeance Of his coun-
trymen is such that he is sure to lose
his life if he does not aid in defeating
the administration of justice before our
tribunals. At the same time the Chi
nese will use our laws before their own
tribunals to persecute innocent men, I'm
to enforcing their own.

Singular Effect Of Lightning. - Les
Mondes notes curious instance OF
where lightning striking frequently at
the same point has gradually killed
vegetation over considerable area in
the vicinity. The current after enter
ing the earth made deep hole some
four inches in diameter. For some
reason repeated strokes, during the last
five or six years, have fallen at this
point, and every year the circle eff dead
currant bushes around il has widened.
At present the affected area has di-
ameter of over 20 feet, and large
cherry tree some twelve years old re-
Gently died. Fresh hardy bushes and
shrubs planted within the boundary die
within two years. It would seem that
the lightning strokes have some in
fluence in thus destroying vegetation,
possibly by producing in the soil chemi-
cal compounds injurious to plants.

AGRICULTURE.

How PRIZE BUTTER Is MADE.-The
dairy consists of three hundred cows,
mostly of native stock. The average
distance of milk brought not to exceed
two miles; received once day, at a
temperature of from sixty to sixty-five
degrees. The principal feed is blue
grass, red top and timothy. In the fall
quantities of green sowed corn are fed
at night. The milk is set in uncovered
watts, with four inches of water space on
sides and bottom, through which spring
water constantly flows to hold the tenn
perature of the milk at sixty degrees.
The milk stood forty-eight hours, kept
sweet and made good quality of skim
cheese. The cream was kept forty-eight
hours, when it was slightly sour !;
churned in revolving dash churn, and
required about one hours churning,
and the butter gathered in Jumps the
size of peas. The buttermilk was drawn
off, and cold water poured in to rinse
thoroughly. The butter was then taken
out and salted, three fourths of an ounce
10 the pound, the salt being worked in
so thoroughly as to require very little
working the second time. The butter
worker used is the inclined table with
lever.

Position OF LAWN TREEs-A very
common error in the disposition of lawn
or ornamental trees is, to dot over ir-
regularly the whole surface of the
ground, so that when the trees become
large, there is uniform mass of confu-
sion. Although straight lines are to be
avoided, and the natural mode of plant
ing pursued, yet there must be sn OBJ
ject in the position of the trees. The
ground must be lett open in the direc-
tiOn of the finest objects in view,
whether they be near or distant; and
repulsive objects hid by dense ever
greens. Where little care can be taken
to keep the ground in order, a very few
large park trees will answer the pur-
pose best. Oaks, black walnuts, elms,
naples, catalpas, chestnuts and tulip
trees and very few of the larger ever
greens may be introduced, such as the
white pine, Norway fir, etc.
