Grain Absorbing Moisture.

Not long ago the Agricultural Col
lege of California instituted expert
ments to determine how much moisture
grain absOrbs in voyage over the ocean
to Liverpool. 1t was found that ex-
posture to a moist atmosphere, under
glass jars. during fifteen days, oats alb
sOrbed 29.08 per cent; barley, 2S.17 per
cent; wheat, 25.02 per cent. The great
est amount of ABSORPTION took
place during the first day. This can
hardly be considered an accurate test,
but it does show that during voyage Of
like time there would be no incOnsidera-
BILE gain--enOugh, perhaps, to pay all
costs of transportation. This fact of
moisture absorption explains, perhaps,
why the English reckon the quarter of
California wheat at 500 pounds, while
wheat from the Western states is reckon
ed only at 40 pounds. They calculate
the extra moisture that the longer voy-
age gives it.

A Western Mine.

ACOmmittee of stockholders who waited
upon the Superintendent Of California
mine to ask why in blazes the said mine
hadn't PANIED out anything but assess
ments were graciOusly received, invited
to be seated, and the official explained:
Gentlemen, you are all aware of the
fact that we had scarcely begun work
when the mouth OF our NINE was blocked
by landslide. That put us back
month"
They nodded their remembrance.
"Then we had just got in shape to take
out 1000 tons of ore, worth $4,000 per ton,
when the mine caved in. You recall iii"
They did.
"Once more we bent ourselves to the
burden of reaping $500 for every $40 in
vested, when the mine was flooded by a
subterranean river"
That was true also.
"Then we had just got the water out
when we discovered that our mine was
located on another mans claim. We had
him shot to prevent trouble, and once
more we were about to declare dividend
of 200 per cent. when the dead mans heirs
put in an appearance. There were three of
them. We chased one over the range,
had another one hung by the Vigilance
Committee, and l am happy to inform
you that have four men out after the
other aud am every hour expecting to
hear that he has tumbled off cliff.
Gentlemen there is hope ahead-gOlden
hope Please come up and drink with
me; after which there will be another
assessment of ten per cent" Il Wall
