Flying Fish. mechanism of the
movement of the flying-flsh through
the air has been described with much
detail bv Professor Moeblus, of Kiel,
who concludes, from the observations
of those who have published on the
subject and his own, that the flying
fish dart from the water with great
speed without reference tosthe course
Of the wind and waves. They make
no regular flying motions with their
pectoral and ventral fms, but spread
them out quietly, though very rapid
vibrations can be seen in the outstrech-
ed pectoral fins. The hinder part of
the body, while the fish moves through
the air, hangs somewhat lower than
the forepart Of the body. They usual
ly fly further against the wind than
with 1T, or If their track and the direc-
tion of the wind form an angle. Most
fiying-flsh which fly against or with
the wind continue their whole
course of flight in the same direction
in which they, come out of the water.
Winds which blow from one side on to
the original track of the fish bend their
course inward. All fish which are at q
distance from the vessel hover in their
whole course in the air near the surface
of the water. Ii in strong winds they
fiy against the course of the waves,
then they fly little hiRher sometimes
they cut with the tail fhtb the crest OF
the same. Only such hying-fish rise
TO q considerable height (at the high
est, by chance, five metres above the
surface OF the sea- whose course in the
air becomes obstruoted by D vessel. In
the daytime flying-Ash seldom fall on
the deck of the ship, out mostly in the
night; never in q calm, but only when
the wind blows. For the most part
they fall on ships which do not rise
higher than two or three yards above
the water, when they are sailing on
the wind or with half-wind, and are
making q good course. Flying-fsh
never come on board from the lee-Side,
but only on the windwand side. Be
fore vessels which pass between their
swimming schools the fish fiy into the
air as before predaceous fish or cetac-
cans. ..r.......f ~

"MY folks are going to the country to
be gone all summer !" enthusiastically
exclaimed little girl, recently, as she
met another on Cass avenue. "Your pa
must be awful rich, replied the second.
"Oh, no, he isn't; but If you'll never
tell anybody" 81 never will-hope
to die if l do" "Well, then, pa was
telling ma that we'd all go out to Uncle
Johns. Ma, she'll work for her board,
pa will work in the saw mill, IN pick
berries and ride the horse to plow corn,
Brother Tom will 60 round with a
lightning-rod man, and while you folks
are in the awful heat, Well be putting
on airs and fixing over old clothes for
fall. Don't tell, now, for ma is saying
to everybody that she must have the
pure country air to restore her shat
tered nerves."

THE top of fruit tree, to secure the
best results in color and flavor of the
fruit, should be kept open to the ad-
mission of air and sunlight If some
branches grow too fast for the harmon
ious balance of the tree, pinch out the
buds at the end and thus force the
growth into the other branches that
are not so thrifty. Five years of culti-
vation and watchful pruning and you
will never have occasion to remove
large branches. 1t is q terrible loss to
tree to allow branches to attain large
size only to be slaughtered.

GREEN Corn FOR Cows.-The value
of sweet corn as green food tor cows
cannot be overestinated. If the stalks
are cut green after the ears have been
pulled for table use there will be very
perceptible increase of milk, but if the
ears are left on there Is no other for
age crop equal TO it. The cows will
not only give more milk, but there will
be more butter in the milk. A small
patch will furnish as much as one COW
can eat during August and September,
when pasture Is short After the frost
kills it it loses its virtue for feed.

Ndphtho and BenziRe.-We have often
been asked tne difference between ben
zine and naphtha, many people want
ing to know whether naphths didn't
include benxine, or whether it wasu' t
the same thing under a marketable
name. A prominent refner says that
benzlne Is the first product. that arises
from the process of refining crude oil,
and bears the same relation to naphtha
that distillate does to refined oil. In
other words, benZine Is crude naphtha.
The reason it Is not quotable under the
name of benzine, therefore, Is because
yit has 90 be reduced TO naphtha before
1 it Is marketable in any extensive guam
tity. The process that benzine is sub
ject TO, TO produce naphtha, Is not q
separate business, but Is carried on by
the reglar Oil refiners In the same stills
4, and retorts that the refined oil is pro-
duced. The benzine is treated with
sulphuric acid, the resnlt IL naphJha,
which is in great demand in Europe,
especially in France, for the purpose
Of aniline dyes, while it Is also put to
many other purposes. This demand IS
partially instrumental in keeping mp
its price, but its rapid evaporation also
has q tendency in that direction, as any
larI-e seller Of 1t has to take into con-
sider&tion the depreciation that might
take place by the time he sells it on
that account, and for the same reason
buyers give no more orders than i'm
mediate necessity requires. All refln-
ers, however, do net produce naphtha,
but some Of them sell the benzine,
which il largely used for fuel purposes,
for which it is much better than coal,
as it is not only absolutely cheaper,
but gives a steadier heat.
