Coming Leap. Year.

A correspondent writes to inquire If
1900 is a leap-year. In Catholic and
Protestant countries, the year 1900 will
not be a leap-year, they all having
adopted the Gregorian calendar. In
countries where the Greek Church is
established PRUSSIA and Greece), the
old Julian calendar still holds, and those
countries will count it a l~eap-year. Aft
er February, 1900, therefore, the differ
ence between the two calendars, which
is now twelve days, will become thir-
teen days, and will remain so until 21OO,
the year 1000 being a leap-year in both
the Julian and Gregoriap calendars.
The rule for leap-year may be thus
stated, according to the Gregorian cal
endar, which differs from the Julian
only in a special treatment of the cent
ury years. All years whose index
number QSS3 is the index number of
the present year) is divisible by four are
~leap-years; unless Q) their index num-
Der is divkible by 100 Century years..
In that case they are not leap-years, un-
less (2) their index number is divisible
by 400; in which case they are leap
years. Thus, 100, 1900, 1900 and 2160
are not leap-years, while 1000, 1000 and
24OO are.-1he Critic.

Limiting the Flew Of Milk. e:

The highest profit in dairying comes
from large yields of rich milk This
being settled, it is sometimes taken for
granted that the larger the yield the
greater the profit will always be. A
large production of milk is certrinly q
good thing, but it is possible to strain
production so hard as to get too much
Of a good thing. There is a limit to
which the flow Of milk NAV proftabiy
be carried. If the secretion is crowded
too hard the product becomes vitiated.
1t will become more watery and will
decay sooner 1t will contain more
fragments of undissolved tissue, the re-
suit of excessively rapid decomposition
and waste of the substance of the milk
glands. There will be more foreign
matter in it in a solid form, and there
will also be a more frequent sprinkling
of blood globules. Scattering globules
of blood are of frequent occurrence in
large yields of milk, and the larger the
yield the more numerous they are apt
to be. In cases of very excessive pro-
duction they can frequently be detected
in the bottom of the vessel after the
milk stands awhile, as being heavier
than the milk they settle to the bottom.
Occasionally, at the last end of a milk
ing, the blood will follow out nearly
pure. When this extreme has been
reached, the secretion is too large, and
it may be remedied BY leaving back a
part of the milk at each milking, till the
flow dries down to an amount the food
and vigor of the COW can sustain. Then
the severe strain on the mammary
glands which excessive production oc-
casions, wears them out prematurely.
By becoming overdone and d%ebilitated,
they become subject to injury and dis
ease from slight causes, which would
be safely endured by organs more
healthy and vigorous.-Natiomaz Lius-
Stock Journal.

Nash, the Prince Of Gamblers.

He drove about in a chariot flaming
with heraldry, and drawn by six grays,
with outriders, running footmen, and
all the a%ppendages which made an inn
preston on the vulgar minds of the
visitors of his kingdom. His dress
was magnificent; his hat alone was
always Of the same color-white; and
as the Emperor Alexander was distin-
guished by his purple tunic, and Brum-
mel by his bow, Emperor Nash was
known all over England by his white
hat. It is due to the King of Bath to
say that, however much he gained,
he always played fair. He even
patronized young players, and after
fleeing them, kindly advised them
to play no more. When he found
a nan fixed upon running himself he
did his best to keep him from that sui
cidal act. This was the cast with a
young Oxonian, to whom he had lost
money, and whom he invited to supper,
in order to give him his parental advice.
The fool would not take the Beau's
counsel, and ''came to grief" Even
noblemen sought his 'protection." The
Duke of Beaufort entered into a COM
pact with him to save his purse, if not
his soul. He agreed to pay Nash 49,
600 guineas whenever he lost the same
amount at a sitting. It was a comfort
able treaty for our Beau, who accord
ingly watched his Grace. Yet it must
be said, to Nash's honor, that he once
saved him from losing 1900, when he
had already lost 5000, by reminding
him of his compact. Such was the play
in those days. 1t is said that the Duke
had afterward to pay the fine from
losing the stipulated sum at Newman
ket. He displayed as much honesty
with the young Lord T%ownshend, who
lost to him his whole fortune, his estate,
and even his carriage and horses-what
madmen are gamblers!-and actually
cancelled the whole debt on condition
my Lord should pay him $4,000 when
ever he chose to claim it. To Nash's
honor it must be said that he never
came down upon the nobleman during
his life. He claimed the sum from his
executors, who paid it.-Londom Times.
