ClOYer rs a Means of Increasing the
Wheat Yiel0s

Alternately clover with the wheat
crop is another means of increasing pro-
dutcion. The clover is esteemed in Eng
land as the best preparation of the land
for wheat, and good clover sod is the
best featilizer. Messrs. Loves and
Gilbert, on a portion of unmanured ex-
per1mental field, tested the value at clo-
YER as a prepatory crop for wheat. Wheat
grown after clover yielded twonty-nine
and half bushels per acre, while on an
adjoining lot, where wheat followed
wheat, only fifteen and half bushels
were obtained. A southern farmer had
large field which yielded only ton BUSH
els per acre. He seeded it to clover,
moved the clover for hay one year, and
pastured it the second year, then plowed
and sowed wheat in the autumn. The
result was that he harvested an excel
lent crop Of wheat, yielding at the rate
OF twenty bushels per acre. DR.. Voelc-
ker, chemist to the Royal Society of
England, conducted serios of careful
Investigations to determine the cause of
the benefit of clover crop as q pre-
paratory crop for wheat. The conclusions
arrived at are that during the growth of
clover large amount of heterogeneous
mattar accumulates in the soil; this &C.
emulation, which is greatest in the
surface soil, is due to the decaying
leaves dropped during the growth Of
clover, and to an abundance of roots,
containing from It to 2 per cent. of nj
trogen; and that the heterogeneous mat
tiers in the clover remain and on their
gradual decay are finally transformed
into nitrates; thus afording a contin-
uous source of food on which cereal
crops specially delight to grow. By re-
moving the clover roots from q square
DOT of soil, Analysing them, and calcu-
ating the total quantity of an acre from
hat datum, DR.. Voelcker found that in
the soil Of an acre Of clover land, moved

Beer.BOttiing in London.

The London Times gives the follow
ing account Of large beer-bottling es-
adjustment: con the ground floor is
the beer store and bott]ing department,
which is $50 feet long by 100 feet wide,
a cool, moist temperature being always
maintained. Only Bass ale and GUM
ness stout are bottled. and the usual
stock of these beers is 2, 500 butts, butt
being equal to two hogsheads. This
beer is kept in stock from eighteen
months to two years before it is bottled.
The premises are situated within few
yards of the Midland Railway, along
which line the beer is brought to the
premises in butts and taken away in
bottles, packed, of course, in cases.
Bottling goes on throughout the year at the
average rate OF SO, 900 bottles per week.
The bottling apparatus is very perfect.
The filling machines fill six bottles at
ore time, and by All automatic arrange
ment the beer ceases to flow in each bot
tie as soon as it is full. The corking
machines are also both ingenious and
practical. Adjoining the bott]ing de-
partment is that appropriated to bottle
washing, which is $50 feet long by fifty
feet wide. It is lighted from the roof,
the lights being placed SO as to COM
mand q north aspect. The usual stock
of empty bottles is about 10000 dozen,
and these are being continuously drafted
off to the bettling department, and as
continuously replaced by fresh supplies

The notion that those who work only
with their brain need less food than
those who labor with their hands has
long been proved to be fallacious.
Mental labor causes greater waste Of
tissue than muscular. According to
careful estimates, three hours of hard
study wears out the body more than
a whole day of hard physical exertion.
without phosphorus, no thought, is
q German saying; and the consumption
of that essential ingredient of the
brain increases in proportion to the
amount OF labor which the organ is
required to perform. The wear and
tear of the brain are easily measured
by careful examination of the salts in
the liquid secretions. The Importance
of the brain as a working organ is shown
by the amount of blood it receives,
which is proportionately greater than
of any other part of the body. One
fifth OF the blood goes to the brain.
though its average weight is only
one-fortieth of that of the body. This
fact alone Would be sufficient to prove
that brain workers require more food,
and even better food than mechanics or
farm laborers. - Boston Journal Of
Chemistry.

huts, About midnight they awoko
and heard some one crying The ii
ger! the tiger, the tiger,."' In the
morning they asked the host what
tiger it was. He told them that it
was q large tiger who lived in the
Jungle near the village, that often
came in the night and robbed the
men of their cattle; and he was so
bold that no one had yet dared to at
tack him though there was a reward
of one hundred pounds offered for
his death.
Then Ralph said that he would at
tempt to kill the tiger though his
host begged him not to risk his life
i'll such a dangerous undertaking, but
he was immoyable. He decided to
start the next day, and at once began
his preparations. As they were pre-
pairing for the expedition, an English
man who was in the village at the
time, came in, and when told that
RAJ pin was going to try to kill the
tiger he said that he should like to
accompany him, and it was decided
that he should go with them. The
next morning they started. The party
consisted Of Ralph, his guide and the
Englishman, whom, for the present,
we shall call John. They had pro
vision for four days, for they exl ected
to spend several days III hunting for
the tiger.
About evening of the third day, as
they were about giving up hunting
for that day, John, who was ahead,
for they went ia single file, espied the
tiger crawling among the long grass
about twenty feet from them. In
stantly he fired, for it was agreed
that the first one should fire first, the
second one second, and the last one
the last.
As he missed his aim the guide
fired. just as he fired the tiger
sprang at them, and they jumped
aside none too soon for he landed be
side them. But Ralph (who is not
in the picture) placed the muzzle of
his gun to the tigers head and fired.
The tiger rolled over, not dead, but
mortal y wounded, and shot from
Johns gun, which he had reloaded,
dispatched him. They then proceed
ed to skin him. The next day they
set out for the village bearing the
tigers skin on apole. When they got
to the village, the people, as they saw
the tigers skin, cried out, " The'tiger
is dead! the tiger is dead" When
they had told them their story, and
the reward was going to be paid, it
was decided that as Ralph had saved
the others lives, as we'll as his own,
by mortally wounding the tiger, he
deserved fifty pounds. John, for
firing the death shot, deserved thirty
pounds, and the guide for guiding
them in the jungle, the remain
ing twenty.
As the tigers skin belonged jointly
to Ralph, John and the guide, John
and the guide decided to present
their share in it to Ralph in acknowl'
edgment of their gratitude for their
lives.
In two days Ralph went to Calcut-
ia, where he took vessel bound to
Japan. He staid week in Japan
and then took a ship for New York,
and after quick and prosperous
voyage arrived there. He spent the
night at hotel and in the morning
took the train for the city he had
sailed from. As soon as he got there
he took the cars for his native town,
where he was welcomed by all his for
mer schoolmates. Ralph told thom
he had enough of the sea, and let rs
leave him, hoping that he will not go
to sea again.
