Evidence of Life in Other Planets.

Two interesting problems which have long
perplexed the scientific world appear to have
been at last definitely solved by the eminent
geologist, DIR. Hahn. These questions are,
first, whether or not celestial bodies other
than the earth, belonging to our solar sys-
TEN, are inhabited by animate beings, and,
secondly, whether the meteoric stones from
time to time cast upon the surface of this
globe emanate from incandescent comets or
from volcanic planets. That they at no time
formed a part of the earth itselfhas been con-
clusively demonstrated. DR.. Hahn has re-
Gently completed series of Investigations
upon some of the huge meteorc stones that
fell from the skies in Hungary during the
summer of 1885, Thin lamine of these mys-
FERROUS bodies, subjected to an examination
under powerful microscope, having been
found to contain coraline and spongeous for.
nations, and to reveal unmistakabe traces
of the lower forms of vegetation. All the or
ganisms, animal and vegetable, discovered
by DR.. Hahn in the delicate stone shavings
he has thus dealt with, indicate the condition
of their parent world to be one of what is
technically termed primary formation."-
But the presence of water in that world is
proved by the fact that the tiny petrified
creatures revealed by the magic of the lens

of animals. They could not have existed in
comets, at least, if the assumption be correct
that these are in state of active combus.

Sheep Notes.

Lambs are nice pets for children when
young, but it is dangerous to keep ram
lambs as pets when they are over half
grown.
Kill the dog first and hunt for his own
or afterwards, is the method of certain Geor-
gia farmers who mean to make sheep raising
profitable.
A farmer who keeps sheep and has no
shepherd dog is nearly in as bad condition
as the mariner who ventures on the sea with
out rudder.
"A Merino ram crossed on flock of COM
mon sheep will double the yield of wool
through the first cross alone, thus paying for
himself the first season.
Those farmers who prefer to bring up
their fiocks for mutton rather than wool
should procure the Southdown, which is in
the middle wool class. but stands as first in
quality of meat.
Good feeding is the secret of success in
sheep husbandry.

Milk Fever in Cows,

Cows who die of milk fever, says the Ne,c
England Homestead, are generally in good
condition or fat 1t has been noticed that
when cows drop their calves in the pasture
in summer they almost always do we'll their
bowels being kept open by succulent food and
they do not get chilled by drinking icy water.
We make it rule to feed a COW few days
before she is expected to come in with early
hay and roots; small potatoes are excellent.
Some object to the disposition which the cow
makes at the after-birth if left to herself, but
we have thought that perhaps nature knows
more than the average of cowdoctors, and
we let her alone. Ii the COW shares with
the calf the first milk which is drawn from
the udder it will have laxative effect We
do not give water until the chill has been
taken from it, or meal for three days after
calving. Many cows do well that have extra
care, but an ounce of prevention will always
bic found to be worth pound of cure.

How to Drive q Hen.

When a woman has hen to drive into
the coop, she takes hold of her skirts with
both hands, shakes them quietly at the delin-
quent, and says, "Shoo, therep The hen
takes one look at the object to convince her.
self that it is woman, and then stalks
majestically into the coop. A man doesn't
do that way He goes out doors and says
at is singular nobody can drive hen but
me-" and picking up stick of wood, hurls
it at the offending biped, and observes "Get
in there, you thief" The hen Immediately
loses her reason and dashes to the other end
of the yard The man straightway dashes
after her. She comes back with her head
down, her wings out, and followed by an as
sortment of stove wood, fruit cans and clink.

she skins under the barn, and over fence
or two and around the house and back
again to the coop, and all the while talking
as only an excited hen can talk, and all the
while followed by things convenient for
handling, and man whose coat is on the

and whose perspiration has no limit. By
tAis time the other hens have come out to
take a hand in the debate and help dodge

place shall be sold in the morning, and puts
on his things and goes down the street, and
the woman has every one of those hens

Tobacco Growing,

The York Pa,) True Democrat advises tobac-
co growers to study the business thoroughly
and to raise the very best tobacco. About
two acres, it thinks, is all that one per-
son can handle. More than that must suffer.
1t says:
The season thus far has been most fayora-
BILE for planting and growth of the young
plants. The leaves are beginning to spread
wide over the fields. The color is strong
green. With the rains continued, the stalks
will soon shoot up and the broad leaves will
form rapidly, and consequently the finest and
richest growth is in prospect, the favorable sea-
son producing finer tobacco than that of
dryer seasons and of more tardy growth. 1t
is the farmers business to keep clean fields,
keep down the worms, top and sucker at the
right time, and top so the greatest size and
maturity of leaf may be obtained rather than
a quantity of imperfect leaves. 1t must not
be forgotten that there can be much 10 It in
poor and careless tobacco farming To illus
trate, instead of 900 pounds to the acre 2, 400
pounds can be raised; 5 cents pound may
be paid for poor tobacco, and Is cents for
fine tobacco. One thousand pounds of poor
tobacco at cents yields only $50 an acre;
1000 pounds fine tobacco at 10 cents Yields
$500 an acre. This shows how profitable it
is to raise the best and how well it pays the
farmer to study tobacco raising.

The ranch ofH. j. Glenn, in Colusa County,
is one of the largest and most noted in the
State, and perhaps presents the best illustra-
ton of extraordinary farming along the
Sacramento. On being asked recently why
he raised wheat alone, his reply was as fol-
lows: people ask why raise all wheat
The answer is simple; it is the only crop
that will bear transportation. 1t is the only
one not perishablc. must not raise on my
land what ruins me, but what is profitable"
Dr. Glenn's ranch comprises about 10000
acres fland and the number ofacres in wheat
each year ranges between 49, 900 and $4,000.
reckoning an average of from 90 TOES bush
els to the acre, the aggregate crop each year
amounts to something more than 100000
bushels. This enormous amount of grain
requires vast appliances for planting and
bringing it to market and the capital invest.
ed in machinery alone sums up q considerable
fortune.
During the harvest time there are employ
ed on the entire ranch some 800 men. Dr.
Glenn is gcneral-in chief of his force, and the
ranch is divided for convenience of opera
tions, into nine smaller ranches-each with
dwelling house, barns, blacksmith shop, and
other necessary buildings. In charge of these
are seven foremcn, under whom are sixteen
blacksmths, fourteen carpenters six engi-
neers, six machinists, five commissaries, and
numerous cooks and servants. The common
workmen are divided into gangs, and detailed
where they are needed. There are 1870 gang
plows; 60 herders, to which belong 1870
wagons; 6 cleaners, 100 harrows, 10 seeders,
q threshers, engines. Besides there are
many smaller instruments and vehicles, which
cannot be classified. Cooperating with their
human brethren in the great labor are 1000
work horses and mules with kinship of 900
brood mares and younger stock which has
not yet achieved the dignity of labor There
smith shops, and other structures sufficient
to swell the aggregate to 100. The machin-
cry could not be replaced for $125,0OO the
work horses and mules are worth $4,000,
the brood mares and young stock $4,000,
and the buildings on the place 100000. The
ranch is about twenty miles above the town
of Colusa.

SHORT. LEGGED STOCK DO farmers
know that shortlegged stock is the best
short-egged cattle, ort.legged horses, short
legged sheep and hogs? Do they know that
all short-legged animals have greater
depth of rib, of body more strength and
vitality and better constitutions than long
legged animals? In breeding this should be
remembered. Short-legged bulls, stations
bears and bucks are always best, other things
being equal. A good judge of animals will
always pay more for them. Eschew long
legged stock. Breed the best always. Like
will beget like, is an old and true saving.
