SeaMeed AMI its Uses.

In tropical climates the little air bad
ders which support the seawracks are OF
great service, for the masses of seaweed

considerable height, having stems the
thickness of mans thigh and branches
and dropping stems which support in

corals, crabs, worms of different kinds,

the seawracks, known as tangles, are
used as food, and when cooked are con-
sidered choice diet FOR cattle. The stems
of very hard, horny variety of the sea.
wracks are used as handles. They
are cut in short pieces, and while moist
or green the blade is forced in at one
end. When the stem dries it clings
firmly to the knife-blade. Being gnarled
and horny it resembles bucks horn, and
when tipped with metal and fully fin
ished, forms an expensive knife handle.
The rose tangles are higher up in the
scale of vegetable life, and their delicate
tints render them very beautiful. OF
these, dulse is an important variety to
the Scotch and Irish, who, beside using
it as food, both in its raw state and
cooked in milk, find in it substitute
for tobacco. Carrageen moss is another

asserts that the hibcrnation Of reptiles
varies much according to the severity Of
the winter Many turtles take refnCe n
the deep holes Of ponds, and Doctor Alb
pott asserts that, in the sevcrcst cold
weather, ne has caught the swapping tur-
tie, the musk turtle, and the box mud
turtle In deep holes and about large
springs that discharge their waters Cd
level ground.
As fish have been found partly eaten
when taken in nets iii mid winter. Doc
tor Abbott concludes that the snapper
takes an occasional meal. At the same
time, he does not deny that the species
found active in winter hibernate under
certain conditions, and that the other
species of turtle hibernate.
Snakes which live in water do not
sleep so deep winter sleep as do the
black snake and others which frequent
the uplands.
The true water snake may often be
found in winter foot or two beneath the
sand of any spring hole, and is not slow
to swim off when thus disturbed. This
species and the common garter snake are
the first to appear in the spring.
The upland snakes may be literally
broken into pieces Without giving evil
dence of life, so thoroughly torpid are
they.
Toads and tree frogs, terrestrial and
arboreal animals, are more sensitive to
cold than the water living frogs and sala-
manders
Frogs at the commencement of winter
retreat to the bottoms of ponds and deer
bitches; salamanders, to the mud at the
bottom of springs.
All the kinds of frogs and three species
of salamanders have been found in q
hogshead sunk in the ground to collect
the waters of spring. They were slug
gish, but not actually alternating.
