SPARE THE rREEs.-Two facts con-
front us, and deserve serious consider
alton. The forests Of tho world are
going just rs the coal beneath our feet
Is going-man Is cooking animal, and
must have fuel. In all the great out
lets of water floods multiply, and be-
come more and more destructive. We
arc compelled to ask ii there IS any
necessary, or perhaps obvious, c0nnec-
ton between tho two factsp Undoubt-
edly there Is, and one of the most SIM
pie nature: and one, moreover, that
plainly teaches that the more the earth
Is stripped Of its natural clothing in the
shape OF arborcscent vegetation, the
more and more 1t will become unfit for
human habitation and bleak bowling
wilderness. If the race Of men wish to
hold their place OIL the planet, there
fore, they will do well to preserve Il
reasonable extent of forest, and, at all
events, they might to their own advan-
tagc occasionally plant to postcrty, be-
cause while the trees are growing they
will moderate tho floods somehow or
other. The utterly selfish system will
not pay. In proportion as the forests
arc destroyed, human life will be de-
nudcd Of its Joys in times when danger
does not threaten; and when thrcaton-
ing begins in respect Of torrents and
floods, it will simply be exposed to such
tremendous risks that it becomes a fair
psculation that water and not fire will
make an end of the race of man.

For MILK AND MEAT.-IIolstcin cat
tic are nearly as large rs Shorthorns
or Durhams, but do not mature so ear
ly, nor tattcn 50 kindly, and arc not
SO fine in their points. They generally
give quite large messcs Of milk Of mod
crate quality, especially good, like the
Ayrshire, for making cheese. The
Sliorthorns originally were us great
mixers as the II0lstcins, and there are
many families of them still kept up,
both in England and America, rs large
mixers. There are repeated Instances
OF their giving thirty to forty quarts Of
good milk per day, In full flew. l Ionce
possessed one that gave All average Of
t1irty-threc quarts per day for sometime
after calving. The London and other
larger dairies in England, having tried
variety of milking breeds, have set
tied on the shorthorn rs the best; and
In addition to their eXcelling all others
for milk, when dried of, they fatten
quicker, on less food, and make u better
Quality OF beef than any other good
milkcrs. 1t will be seen by this that
they excel all others us Il combined
dairy and butchers COW. Beef has
paid so much better profit in England
and In the Western States of America,
than dairy products, for the past half
century, that breeders have by contin-
ued selection, and feeding heavily at
an early age, changed their animals
from great mixers to great producers
of beef. Such only care for II cow that
will givo milk sufficient to grow up Il
great calf, which they usually let run
with the mother, and suckle till the
dam herself wcans 1t, which is at about
six months age, ordinarily. If Il man
wishes to breed cattle for combined
milk and beef Of good quality, and in
the largest measure, he has only to OBJ
tain Shorthorns Of the best milking
families, and they will fulfil all he de-
sires, with proper management on his
rart.

The End Of the World.

Camille FlammariOn, the well-known
French scientist, thus beautifully ex-
presses himself in La Correspondence
Scicntifgue, regarding the ultimate
fate of our globe
The earth was born; she will die.
She will either die OF old age, when her
vital elements shall have been used up,
or through the extinction Of the sun. TO
whose rays her life is suspended. She
might also die by accident, through
collision with some celestial body
meeting her on her route but this end
Of the world is the most improbable Of
all.
She may, we repeat, die a natural
death through the slow absorption Of
her vital elements. In fact, il is prob
able that the air and water are dimin-
Ishing. The ocean, like the atmOs-
phere, appears to have been formerly
much more considerable than it is in
our day. The terrestrial crust is pene-
trated 10y waters which combine chem
ically with the rocks. It is almost GER
tain that the temperature Of the in
terror of the globe reaches that Of boil
ing water at the depth Of six miles, and
prevents the water from descending any
lower but the ABSORPTION will continue
with the cooling Of the globe. The
oxygen, nitrogen and caTbOnic acid
which compose our atmosphere also ap-
pear 10 undergo absorption, but slower.
The thinker may foresee, through the
mist OF ages TO come, the epoch, yet
afar of, in which the earth, deprived of
the atmospheric aqueous vapor which
protects her from the glacial cold of
space by preserving the solar rays
around her, will become chilled in the
sleep of death. As a writer says
"From the summit OF the mountains a
winding sheet OF snow will fall upon the
high plateaus and the valleys, driving
before il life and civilization, and
masking forever the cities and nations
that it meets on its passage Life aud
human activity Will press inseusihly
toward the inter-tTopical znne. ST.
Petersburg, Berlin, London, Paris, Vi
emma. EOustantinople and Rome, will
fall asleep in succession under their
eternal shroud. During very many
ages equatorial humanity will under
take Arctic expeditions to tind again
under the ice tie place of Paris. Lyons,
Bordeaux and Marseilles. The sea
coasts will have changed, and the geo.
graphical map of the earth will have
heeu transformed. No one will live
and breathe any more except in the
equatorial zone up to the day when the
last family. nearly dead with cold and
hunger, will sit on the shore Of the last
sea, in the rays Of the sun which will
hereafter shine below on an ambulent
/ tomb revolving aimlessly around a use
I less light and barren heat.
