They Weren't Sandwiches.

Among the score of us who rushed
into a railroad eating house in MisSis-
Sippi at the call of ''tweHty minutes for
dinner, - was a chap who had his mind
up to say something unpleasant when
he came to pay for his meal. He was
growing when he went in and he jawed
all the while he was eating, and when
he slouched up to the desk to pay his
seventy-five cents he broke out with:
''Them sandwiches are enough to Kill
a dog."
''What s;ndwiches?"
''Why, them on the table -
''BHt we have no sandwiches on Il e

"You haven't? Well, | should like

The latest reports from the North
west represent the agricultural outlook
rs brighter than it was month ago.
The winter wheat, which, it was then
thought, was so damaged that the crop
would fall twenty per cent. short of the
average, has survived the severe season
better than was supposed possible,
while the recent weather has been
favorable enough to enable the Western
farmers to finish seeding spring wheat
| The apprehension of crop DEFICIENCIES on
the Pacific slope has been allayed by
the heavy rains which fell last month.
But, despite the improved wheat crop
prospects for 1883, there is reason to
believe the yield will not in any case
exceed the average and may fail below
1t. Late as it is, it is not too late to
point out to farmers over the whole
country the Importance of getting out
of the soil this year the best crop of
Indian corn they can produce. Where
the long run of cold weather has killed
the wheat crop there is still time enough
to replant the ground with corn, and
probably no grain pays the producer so
well as corn. The estimated value of
last years corn crop has been put down
as over twelve hundred million dollars.
But if fed 10 hogs and cattle it is much
more profitable than if sold for eXporta-
ton and diStillatiOn. During the last
| two years disastrous failures have been
experienced in portions of the largest
corn producing States, which might
| have been avoided had due attention
been given to the selection of seeds.
| The great deSideratum north of the 10th
parallel is to get the corn crop to Tipen
before the period of autumn froStS, and
often a single week of backwardneSS is
fatal to the success of the producer. If
seed produced two or three degrees
north of the locality to be planted is
selected the crop will ''ripen in a week
or two less time than native seed. -
The geographical limit of the profitable
cultivation of corn is the August isoth-
ermal line of 81 degrees, which extends
in the Northwest to or beyond the 41th
parallel Though DIR. Richardson and
others have shown that ''maize ripens
well at the Red River and Carlton
HOuse'-in the Saskatchewan Valley
its cultivation is SO precarious beyond
the Upper Missouri that it should only
be attempted to select spots little eX-
posed to early frosts. The farmers in
the Central and Southern States, how
ever, should this year put forth unusual
efforts to produce and secure large
crop of this important cereal.

Sport anon. Zuni Children.

One day says a writer, saw some of
the children playing at ''breaking hOr-
ses," One juvenile demon was leading
band of four or five others, in the
pursuit of big bristling boar. LassO
in hand, the little fellow watched his
chance. and twirling the flexible cord
once or twice rapidly in the air, sent it
like lightning toward the head of the
boar. The latter made a desperate
dash only to run his snout and forefOOt
into the coil, which, held by the COM
bined efforts of all, quickly precipitated
him, in succession of entangling
sOmersaults, into the shallow river.
In an instant another laSSo was dexter
ously thrown over his hind feet, and
his captors, regardless of mud and
water, wild with vsciferous glee, be-
straddled him and held him down.
The leader tore off one of the legs of
his trousers, and with this he bandaged
the eyes of the squealing animal, wrap
fping another piece around his snOut So
as to smother his cries. Thus equipped,
the hog was set at liberty. Two of the
little wretches jumped astride him,
while the others prodded him behind
and at the sides. Thus g, AIDED, the
poor beast ran uncertainty in all direc-
tions, into corrals, over logs, headlong
into deep holes, precipitating his ad-
venturesome riders; not, however, to
their discontinue, for thev would i'm
meditely scamper up, drive, push,
lead, or haul him out and mount him
again. The last | saw of them was
toward evening; they were ruefully re-
garding the dead carcass of their novel

Laboratory experiments have fire.
queutly been resorted to produce the
aurora in miniature, and the reSemb-
lance to the original has been extremely
close, but an artificial aurora on large
scale and with no electrical machinery
has lately been effected by Professor
LemStroem. lie selected station Just
within the Arctic circle, in North Fin
land, where there were two mountains
close together, and having attitudes of
2,600 and $500 feet. In accordance
with the well known fact that electri-
city gathers upon points, two hills hav-
ing clearly defined cOnicalsummits were
selected. He believed that aurora was
the result Of an endeaYOr on the part of
certain forces to establish an equilibri-
um, and assumed that electricity was
passing from one hill top to the other.
Reasoning that if by any means the in
terchange could be hastened the effect
would become visible, the SUBMITS
were connected with their bases by a
network of copper to serve as a conduc-
tor. Immediately an arch of the aurora
appeared, estimated to be at least 800
feet above the top. An examination of
the currents produced in the wres
showed them to be positive. The spec
trOScOpe clearly revealed the well known
lines of the aurora. Although the dis
play was only of short duration, there
could be no doubt of its genuineneSs or
Of the success of the experiment.

Whether it is of wood or coal, the
virtues of an open fire are these 4:
BY its peculiar heat action 1t warns
the air of room less than its walls
and less than the occupants of the
room, producing comfortable warmth.
1t gives the most thorough venti-
lation, and it is the most cheerful
as well as comfortable source of
heat. Its faults are its expensive
ness, and the greater trouble required
in taking care of it.
Why does an open fire give comfor-
table heat when the heat from a system
of pipes is often oppressive. and some
times sitting? Because of the great diff
ference between the ways in which the
fire and the hot pipes dispense their
heat. The heat rays from an open
fire pass directly through the air with
out much heating it; they heat any
solid object in their way, whether it be
the walls and furniture of the room or
the person of the sitter, but they leave
the air itself cool until this is heated in
turn by radiation from the walls. The
occupant of the room does not have t.
wait for this secondary radiation; he is
