A New Steam Hammer.

A steam hammer or press of peculiar
serviceableness in certain operations
for producing tools is among the recent
invent ons. The weight of the machine
is come thirteen tons, and dies are used
according to the shape of the tool de.
sired. In these dies a piece of iron OF
the proper weight is put, and by intense
pressure the metal is fashioned to the
intended shape. By an ingenious ar
rangement the iron is steeled-thar is.
the required portion of steel is welded
to it by pressure from four directions.
when it is again placed in the die, re-.
pressed, and the "eye" punched, after
which it IS pointed and dressed, ready
f"r use: The capacity of the machine is
rated at twenty. four dozen hatchets per
week, or more than double the result
obtained by the ordinary method. 1t is
also applied to the cutting Of iron, its
action being remarkably rapid end eff.
tective; thus, . heavy knife being pu.
upon the machine, it will make a clean
cut, tw, and one-fourth by one and a
half inches, through cold iron.

Food Yalua ola DAIRY Cow.

The Dairy paper estimates that q
dairy COW produces seven times her own
live weight of milk yearly, and half her
weight in cheese, besides large amount
of butter. The cheese and butter are
worth as food three times as much as an
equal weight of beef. And this product
is kept up for 10 years. The com pari-
tive value of a diary COW, is then equiv.
liant to beef animal OF three times her
weight every year, and if such o steer
could be killed every year tor 10 years.
it would be as much as a COW and no
more. So that one COW is really worth,
as producer of food, a. much as 10 fat
beeves OF 2, 5O' pounds each, and her
calves and her own beef at the end If
her useful lite are thrown in.

Saving Seed,

Every farmer can do much to improve
his crops by carefully selecting his seed.
This is We'll known fact, but it Is too
infrequently acted on. 1t may not be
practicable for the farmer in the case of
the small grains to select individual
ears and preserve them for seed, but if
plats OF the best filled and strongest
growing grain were selected and
thfeshed separately from the wheat,
oat or barley field. no one will deny that
much improvement might be made in
these crops with very little trouble or
expense. There are other crops of
which it is easy to select tho best indi-
vidnal specimens. the choicest ears of
corn or potatoes from the best and most
productive hills. The best time to do
this is at harvest. AS the potatoes are
aug, the best epecimens of the finest
hills can De readily prese we'd, and tho
trouble will be hundred fold repaid in
more abundant yield. The best time to
secure seed corn is when it is being cut.
Select such ears as you desire md keep
them whore they will not freeze till per-
:ectly dry, and if they are never ex.
posed to cold below freezing no harm
will be done.
1t is good plan to put aside grain
suitable for seed, little more than will
be needed. 1t is much better than to
run around the neighDorhood after seed
oats or barley or buckwheat when It is
time to SOW them, and generally Mt much
less expense. 1t is but little trouble to
save many garden and flt wer seeds, and
will not only save many five-cent papers
Of seeds, but perhaps disappointment
Besides the hest can be selected, true to
money saving is small, the convenience
and satisfaction will be large.

A Baby Adopted by q Bear.

The Ox'ord (1daho) Enterprise says
that an eighteen.month's old baby of

The drosky drives were very exciting.
The horses go very fast, and the seat.
without bacs or sides, is SO exceed ngly
small that we narrowly escaped being
shot off at every turn, and deemed it
almost impossible that two could iide
together. Since then. through divers
experiences, we have attained wonder
ful power Of balance. The harness is
very light aud fastened at every point
OF intersection with pretty little clasps
and chains. Two little watch chains
cl ossel athwart the nose are most
becoming to the horse, as is
also the yoke Tor high wooden
arch connecting the shaft in which his
head is framed. No blinkers are worn
aud NJ whip is to be seen. 1t would be
considered disgrace to a noachman to
b I'VE to whip his horse. These are 80

the way to urge them on. a slacksned rein
