Eudiau Corn.

New York, S.-Bradstreet has q COM
prehensive article on the production and
export of Indian corn in the United
States. The experts from New York in
1880 were ~ S75, $50 bushels; from Phil
adelphis, 1872, 1896 bushels; from Balti-
more, 10 244, S95 bushels; from Boston,
12,454, 256 bushels; from New Orleans,
e,I95 "a bushels; from Montreal, 1922, :
l6l bushels Total, liz, sos, I22 bushels,

So, s8s ,345 bushels in 1878. The total

in 1886 We Q 1885, $50 bushels, or 49,
642 5U7 bushels 10 excess Of 1879. A point
to be 10 ed is the high position taken by
Indian cHn and its products in this
country, and the change since 1860,
ranSing second as it now does only to

ton Of pri' es. 1t will be rem EN- bered
that in 1869 and 1870, when our exports
dropped TO l, 1872, lis bushels, corn was in
sucn large supply IN England from the
Danubian and Black Sea ports that it

this indicating, of course. that, while
America eeded every bushel she raised

export demand is liberal, may cause

Sheep Barking Fruit-Trees.

Under certain circumstances sheep
will gnaw the bark of young fruit-trees
and not unfrequently destroy them. and
always iniure them, sometimes to a
serious extent. This action on the part
of sheep is induced from thirst, for al
though sheep require very little water,
and seldom drink any when the pasture
is wet, yet when this is not the case
they require water, as do other animals.
To prevent them from disturbing the
trees, it is found that wash, made
after the following directions. will prove
an efficient remedy: Dissolve pound
of whale-oil soap in six gallons of water,
and into this stir a quantity of sheep
manure until about the consistency OF
of common whitewash. and apply this
10 the trees for some four or five feet
from the ground. Sheep will not even
rub themselves again trees thus treated,
much less gnaw them. The wash must
be repeated every six to eight weeks,
especially if there is much rain to carry
it off. Besides protecting the trees,
there is nothing better to drive away
injurious insects, smooth the bark. and
fertilize the soil around the trunk

Working Under Water.

Mr.. Fleuss has been giving at Ports
mouth some practical illustrations of
the merits of an apparatus he has in
vented for enabling persons to work I'M
der water and in noxious gases. In or
der to do this he takes below with him
a supply of concentrated oxygen in a
small reservoir which is slung on his
back like knapsack. Atevery respira-
ton from the tank, which is effected by
means of a tube apd mouthpiece, the
exhausted gas after being strained
through sponge saturated with caustic
soda, returns to the tank, the impure
ingredients alone being permitted to
escape. In this way he can remain un-
der water for four hours, and can pene.
trate to situations which are impossible
to an ordinary diver, who is compelled
to drag a lengthening pipe at every step
and is always liable to the danger OF
getting entangled with the means which
supply him with air. When entering ar
atmosphere charged with smoke and
poisonous gases Mr.. Fleuss divests him
self of the diving dress, his only protec
ton being tight-fighting coverings fol
his eyes and nostrils. Thus provided
Mr.. Fleuss has gone unframed through
fumes of the densest and most pungen
