A l5riter in Science Gossip observes
that all grazing animals eat great

horse, he says, which, being regularly
fed on hay and corn and not turned out
TO grass, pined tor a little dirt. Find

hedge bank, slackened the rein, and
watched him scoop out with his tongue
earth enough to fill pint pot. This, 1
think, is the reason why horse 50 often
stirs up the mud in pond with his
hOof before drinking. Many horses
will paw the water even when passing
a clear stream, giving their riders the
fear that they want TO lie down in it,"

that no clown had been engaged. The

SCIENTIFIC.

Petroleum Ice Ndchines.-Truly there
is no end to the uses OF our Petroleum.
The latest novelty is its employment in
the manufacture of ice. Cymogeme
and rhigolene are petroleum products,
obtained during the refining of the
crude oil. Crude petroleum gives of
exceedingly volatile, vapors and gases,
which, when mixed with air in suit
able proportions, produce extremely
explosive mixtures. In the refineries
where cymogeme and rhigolene are
produced, these vapors and gases are
passed through long coils of pipe, and
condensed by cold and pressure into
exceedingly volatile liquids. Cymo-
GENE is the liquid thus obtained by the
condensation of the first portions that
pas off from the oil. 1t is consequent
ly more volatile than rhigolene, the
liquid obtained by the condensation of
the next portions of the distiliaUe.
Cymogeme boils at the temperature OF
melting ice. A small quantity, when
kept In moderately good conducting
vessels bursts, it is said, almost eX
plosively into vapor, by the mere ap
proach of the human body. RhigOlene
is less volatile its boiling point is about
sixty five degrees Fahrenheit. These
lighter products of the distillation OF
crude petroleum being exceedingly
volatile, and yet readily recOndensed,
serve admirably the part of abstracting
heat from the water which Is to be
converted into ice. The vapors which
both of these substances so readily give
off form, however, with air, mixture
which is as highly explosive as gun
powder. The lower part OF the ice
making machines contains the liquid of
cymOgeme. The coils dipping into the
liquid are wetted by it, and rapid eva
poration of the volatile liquid occurs,
which is insured by connecting the
upper part of the cylinder with power
full exhausting pumps. The non-con-
gealable liquid, thus greatly cooled,
passes TO suitable tank, where tie
freezing is accomplished. The vapor
from the cymogeme, or other volatile
liquid, carried from the cylinder by the
pumps, is driven by them into strong
vessel, in which ii is again liquefied by
cold and pressure, and carried by pipes
back again 10 the cylinder which con-
tains the revolving coils. This process,
il will be seen, is continuous. The cymo-
GENE is evaporated and recondensed,
and tie non-congealable liquid used
over and over again. The apparatus,
therefore, if very careful constructed,
might safety employ any very volatile
liquid since none OF it is necessarily al
lowed to escape into the air. The
practical difficulty, however, is ab-
solutely preventing the escape of highly
condensed gases or vapors.

GRAZING PERMANENT PASTURES
There are men so Obtuse that they can
not be made to see that grazing with a
variety of stock improves land and adds
TO its fertility. Ii is well known fact
that grass or any herbage does not rob
tie soil until it blooms and begins to
form seed; therefore, when grass land,
having all the varieties which are not
injured but benefited by continual
moderate treading and cropping off by
horses, cows and sheep pastured
thereon, is kept from approaching an
old seeded age, there is scarcely any
thing exhausting to the soil. The
grazing with variety of animals in
such proportions as a stock-raising far
mer, or good experienced grazing,
ought to know how to keep in each
field, will cause an even, regular biting
off all over the surface, and there will
not be parts untouched and other parts
almost eaten to the roots. If farmers
would notice particularly as they walk
over their pastures, they would see the
error of those who assert that close
grazing is wrong, for the parts eaten
down close are the best portions of the
fields. Ii is very good plan TO sow
a little salt now and then on the
punches of grass lett higher than the
average, ana always TO do this before
the herbsge gets old.
