How Oysters are Born.

Our bivalveS, however, do not spawn after
the manner of molusks generally. 1t is,
i'll its own way, vivaparous. 1t does not
emit eggs, but at the proper time sends
forth its young alive. The eggs are dis
lodged from the ovaries and committed to
the nursing care of the gill and mantle At
first each egg seems to be inclosed in cap
sule. 1t is of vellowsh color, but as incu-
baton or development progresses the color
changes, first to gray, then to a brown,
afterward to 4 violet. This is 4 ign that
the time of eviction is at hand, for nature
now issues her writ to that effect And
wonderful little beings they are when the
writ arrives to vacate the homestead, for
without jostling through the maziest evolu
tons i'll that tiniest sphere--a drop of water.
As cited by +. w. Felowes in the american
N1tHulist: Nothing is more curious than
to see, under the microscope, these little
molusls travel in drop of water in vast
mum berS mutually avoiding one another,
crossing each others track in every direc-
ton with a wonderful rapidity, never touch
ing ana never meeting" The parent oyster
has, indeed, Il prodigious family to turn
ont upon the world. But when this time
does come. though Winter be near, her
tons are summary, and the wee BARNS are
every one ordered from home. They are
spit forth, or elected from the shell. Filled
with water the valves are suddenly snapped
together. Every snap elnits small whit
ish cloud. Though 4 little of the milky
fluid be in it, this whitish cloud is com
posed chiefly Of the tiny fry: for individ-
ually, they are almost invisible. Indeed,
who shall count the oysters offspring .
Science, by her own methods, has made the
computation, and so she gives us the as
founding assurance that u single oyster,
during one spawning seasons, emits two
million embryos.

before, and know something
of our ways. Perhaps your

you've only read that we

A Speech from Gen. Garfield.

CLEVELAND, o., Nov. 3.-Seven hun
dred Of the faculty and students of Ober-
lin College visited Mentor to-day, it being
the first delegation to congratulate Gen
eral Garfield, who said to them:
Mr.. President, Ladits AMI Gentlemen-
This spontaneous visit is much more
agreeable than prepared one. 1t comes
more directly from the heart of the poo
pie who participate, and | receive it as a
greater compliment for that reason. |
do not wish to be unduly impressble or
superstitious: but though we have out
lived the days Of the augurs, think we
have right to think of some events as
omens. and | greet this as a happy and
suspicious omen. that the first general
greeting since the event of yesterday is
rendered to me by Il venerable institution
oflearning. The thought has been abroad
in the world 4 good deal. and with .eason
that there is divorce between scholar
ship and politics. Oberlin, believe. has
never advocated that divorce, but there
has been sort of clustered scholarship
in the United States that has stood aloof
from active participation i'll public affairs
and | am glad to be greeted here to-day
by the active, live scholarship of Ohio.
and know of no place where scholarship
has touched upon the nerve centre Of
public intelligence 50 effectively as at
Oberlin. For this reason | am specially
grateful for this greeting from the tacul-
ty and students of Oberln College and
its venerable president. | thank you,
ladies and gentlemen for this visit
Whatever the significance of yesterday $
event may be, it will be all the more sig
nificant for being Immediately endorsed

The only practical method Of the mean s

farmer, of raising the standard of herd
of cattle, flock of sheep, etc., Is through
pure blooded males. A male of this
character may be bred to Il considerable
number OF females, and all Of the Off
spring will be brought more than half
way up from tho level of the dam to that
Of the sire. Tho sire being pure bred
Will have the greater power TO fix his
characteristics upon the offspring. If
the qualities of the Ayrshire are desired.
1t Is not necessary to buy full herd OF
Ayrshires, but instead, a single pure

The dog days that they do in the brac-

as rule, they pay dearly for their Inn

bOdy. Many persons often expose
themselves to the sun in the most
reckless manner, while others are
equally imprudent as to the kind and
quality OF their blood. The latter ts a
most important consideration. The
simpler and more nourshing the food
the better; yet how few restrict them

In selecting the supplies for their tables
during the summer months. Frequent
bathing, moderate exercise, abstention

rigid supervision Of drainage, oleaness

FRUIT FROM BARREN TREEs.-A cor
respondent says: wish to describe to
you a method of making fruit trees
bear, that blundered on. Some fif-
teen years ago had small apple tree
that leaned considerably. I drove a
stake beside 1t, tied string to 4 limb,
and fastened it to the stake. The next
year that limb blossomed full, and not
another blossom appeared on the tree,
and, as Tom Bunker said 'It set me
to thinking" and came to the conclu-
sion that the string was so tight that it
prevented the sap from returning to the
roots; consequently 1t formed fruit
buds. Having couple of pear trees
that wero large enough to bear but had
never blossomed, took coarse twine
and wound 1t several times around the
tree above the lower limbs, and tied it
as tight as [ could. The next spring
all the top above the cord blossomed as
white rs snow, and there was not one
blossom below where the knot was tied. .
have since tried tho experiment on
several trees, with the same result. I
think 1t Is much better way than cut
ting off the roots. In early summer,
say June or July, wind a strong twine
around the tree, or a single limb, and
tie 1t, the tighter tho better, and you
Will be blessed with the result. The
next winter or spring the cord may be
taxen off.
