. The Root of the Cotton Plant.

The value OF the cotton plant Zoos.
sypiuna herbaceatnD has been increas.
ed by the discovery that the bark of the
roots yield a promising dyestuff. Mr..
w. G. Staehl reports that when the
bark of cotton root is exhausted by al,
cohol of the specific gravity of O.84, q
dark reddish brown liquid is obtained,
which, when distilled to recover the
spirit, leaves a resinous matter which
amounts to 8 per cent. of the original
weight of the bark. The new product
thus obtained appears black and shin.
ing, but when pulverized takes the col.
or of cochineal. It dissolves in IA
parts of alcohol, Is parts of chloroform,
and 100 parts of benzol. It dissolves
also in caustic alkalies, and is precipi.
tated from these solutions by acid. BY
drate of potash colors green. Sui.
phuric acid dissolves it with a red-brown
color.

The Man he Wanted.

A while ago an editor wanted an as
sistant and had many applications. The
first young man said he had enjoyed
two years experience in the business,
and thought he understood it thorough
" in all its branches. But he didn't
get the job. Others, with similar quail
fications, presented themselves, but
were refused. One young man said he
had worked in an Office, wrote a clear
hand and knew how to prepare copy,
and wasn't afraid to try any job, though
he might not be able to carry il through,
as he didn't know the whole business
yet; and the editor said: you are
the man I want. / want Q man who
does not know the whole business.

Bachelors In History.

In antiquity it was considered unpatri-
otto to remain unmarried. Hence
bachelors were subject to peculiar dis
abilities in the Spartan and Roman
code. They we're obliged to pay extra
taxes, and under Augustus they we're
barred from the inheritance of real es.
tate, except from their nearest relatives.
Only one Of our presidents was bach
elor, and he was failure. Bachelors
are not as successful in life as married
men. It is said that one of Washing
toms associated patriots in the revolu-
tionary struggle was celibate. ALI
had the influence Of marriage end So
cial life. Hence the tendency against
wedlock which marks the present day is
among the worst features in society.
Speaking of marriage, it should be a
complete union of affections and of in
tellectual powers. It may be added,
that q mans wife should, to certain
degree, be his partner. She should
know something OF his risks and anan-
cial difficulties, and in this way the
burden of life is often divided. Walter
Scott concealed from his wife his con-
nection with the BannatyDes, which
caused his ruin. II is one of the best
features in General Grants character,
that he takes his wife along and gives
her q full share of those dignities and
honors which spring from national graf
itude.-EE.

thus sums up the reasons who every

"A farm can be stocked with sheep for
less money than with cattle, horses or
hogs. Sheep will come nearer to util-
ixing everything that grows on the
farm than other animals. Les labor

Live Stock In the Argentine Republic.

1.-Two OSVCA III tu0 AE8outlu0 AoPuUAlCs
II need hardly be said that the main
source of wealth in the Argentine Con
federation has been the rearing of stock,
and at the preselt time the Pampa con.
tains 100000 sheep and 10000, 0OO
Of cattle. It may not, however. be gen.
orally known that the cattle are all
descended from eight COWS and bull
which were brought to the new Spanish
colony in 1868, by two Portuguese
brothers named Goes. It is only with
in the last few. years that any endeavor
has been made to ameliorate the origin.
al breed by crossing them with Short
horn bulls which have been imported
from Europe. This cross is improving
the milking qualities of the COWS, but
it is only in the neighborhood of Bue-
nos Ayres that this amelioration is ap.
preciated, for.o on many of the large
grazing farms of the Pampa there are
not more than half a dozen mich COWS
out of 10000 head. The occupie1
of the farm, or estancia, to give it the
local name, looks only to the hides and
to the meat, which, when dried and
sailed, is sent to Cuba and Brazil,
where it is consumed by the
blacks. A farm of this description is
estimated to bring in Is or 30 per cent.
on the capital invested, and q square
league of land, equal to about 5,400
English acres, will keep 5000 head OF
cattle, third of which will be sold
every year at an average price of G2 81
per head. One of the largest farms in
the Argentine Republic is the colony
of Ocampo, situated on the right bank
of the Pavana, about 375 miles to the
north of Buenos Ayres, and managed
by M. Jules Andrieu, who has written
a very interesting pamphlet descriptive
of agricultural enterprise in that coun.
try. This farm covers o total area Of
100000 acres, three.fourths Of which
consisted of prairie land and 10000
acres of woodland when it was first
taken in hand by its present owners.
who have broken up large proportion
of the former and converted it into
arabic land. They find, however, that
wheat does not pay SO well as maize,
which yields profit of $25 per acre,
on an outlay of little more than double
that sum. M. Andrieu's book contains,
too, some interesting information with
regard to the price of labor in the Ar
gentine Republic, the list of it being
that laborers earn from 60 to G3 a
month, according to their capabilities,
exclusive of lodging or Of rations,
width are estimated at about As a week
more. A pair of working oxen is worth
e8 and horse e2, the cost of their
keeping being almost nominal. Against
these advantages have to be set the
risk of having ones crop destroyed by
grasshoppers or by the extreme heat OF
drought, so that the Argentine Repub-
lie is not quite the agricultural paradise
which it has so often been described
