WHY KEROSENE ExPLODEs.

In the first place, kerosene never ex-
plodes. Ordinary kerosene is a mixture
OF oils which are converted in gas, OF
vapor, at different temperatures. This
gas, when mixed into certain proportions
with the air, forms a most explosive
compound.
The danger, therefore, from kerosene
comes from this gas, which, of course,
cannot be seen. From the best quality
of kerosene all, or nearly all, the oil
which evaporates at low temperature,
and thus becomes explosive, has been re-
moved. The latter oil is naphtha or
benzine. So long as this is kept confn-
ed so that its vapor cannot mix with the
common air., it is safe. But the mo-
ment the gas mixes with the atmosphere
Int becomes explosive and dangerous
These facts give the reason why it is
never safe, under any circumstances, to
I'LL a lighted lamp, or to pour kerosene
from can upon burning fire.
The lamp needs filling; therefore
there is space over the oil filed with
the gas of the oil evaporated by heat and
air. It is confined, and as long as the
cover is screwed down no spark can get
to it.
But when the cover is taken off the
gas is pushed out by the oil entering the
larnp, mixed still further with the COM
mon air, becomes explosive, commune
Gates with the flame of the lamp and
Immediately explodes.
So. too, there is explosive gas in the
top ola hall-emptied kerosene oil can,
and when the oil is thrown on the fire
the fame communicates with that gas
and causes an explosion.
| The sellers of cheap oil frequently de-
| clare in selling the dangerous fluid that i
lis so safe that lighted match can be
thrown into it. That this can be done
with safety only shows that the condi
tons for making the explosive gas are
not met in the experiment. But if tn,
same oil were used in defective lamp
or with any but the EXTREMIST care
there would be an explosion.

Sir J. H. Lawes, Rathamsted, England
deduced the following from feeding ex-
periments made with a large number of
animals, some years ago: Sheep will
consume about Is lbs. of dry mixed
food (roots, nay, and cake or CORN per
week for each 100 lbs. live weight, and
they should yield about l lb. increase in
live weight for about lbs. of dry sub
stance of this food Oxen under similar
conditions, but receiving small guam
tity of straw chaff with the other foods,
will consume about IL lbs to Is lbs. of
dry food to each 100 lbs. live weight
weekly, and should give one ID. increase
TO each IL lbs. or 10 lbs. of dry food con-
sumed. Pigs fed literally on corn will
consume from 26 lbs. to 80 lbs. of dry
substance for 100 lbs. live weight weekly,
and they should yield l ID. increase of
live weight for 4 lbs. to lbs. of dry
substance of food consumed. Moderate
ly fat sheep should yield So per cent,
carcass in fatted live weight, and ex-
cessively fat sheep GA per cent or more.
Moderately fat pigs killed for fresh pork
should yield Including the mead and feet
80 to 80 per cent carcass in fatted live
weight, while large, well-fattened pigs
killed for curing will yield a considerable
higherproportion.

WORKING BUTTER.

Butter should be worked lust enough
to evenly distribute the salt through it

and it is then thoroughly washed in
clean water or brine, there will be no
necessity for working it to get out the
buttermilk, as there will be none to re-

butter-worker, or on any suitable plat
form, and pressed into thin sheets and
then folded upon itself three or four
times as the salt is sprinkled en-, will be
very evenly sailed.
Butter that is unevenly sailed will be
streaky and marbled, because salt but
ter has a deeper color than unsalted.
If mass of butter is worked in a bowl
or worker so small that the butter can
not be spread out into thin sheets. it is
possible to paddle it over long while
without getting the salt into every part.
Butter that is gathered in the churn be-
fore the buttermilk is drawn off may
be worked to advantage for the pur-
pose of squeezing out the milk that
should not have been allowed to be
shut into it, but such a process requires
hard work, while at the same time it

FIRST OF JANUARY CELFBRA-
TION.

A long wished-for contamination
has at last been reached. The city
debt, which has for years been the chief
staple of remark by the croakers, and
the doleful song of discontented proper
ty-hOlders has been adjusted. The pre-
dictions of the would-be wise people
that the debt would never be paid, and
that the only alternative was repudia
ton, has come to nought. The amount
of the city debt, which for long time
had been a matter of all sorts of con
lecture, is now definitely known
more than that, it is found to be with
in the ability of the city to meet it
without great inconvenience to the tax
payers.
A committee has been chosen tC
make arrangements for celebrating
on Thursday next, January first, the
adjustment Of the city debt. Address
es, it is expected, will be delivered by
Col. J. FL. Howe and Hon. J. V. Quarles
Other proper and appropriate exercises
have been arranged by the committee
which will be duly observed.

CHICAGO EVENING JOURNAL,

We desire to call attention to all who
wish to subscribe for 6rst-class daily,
tri-weekly or weekly newspaper; the
Chicago E0ening Journal. for general
reading, has no superior. We have
frequently said if any individual or
family wishes a newspaper, that, next
to the local home paper, we would
recommend the Chicago EUeiaa1g
Journal. In the variety of its inter-
esting and instructive reading matter,
it is not surpassed by any paper in the
West. As a Republican paper, 1t is
outspoken and reliable. Its careful
avoidance of immoral reading com
mends it to admission into all respect
able families. In this eventful age
the daily paper becomes almost indis'
pensable to those who desire to keep
posted in the worlds movements
Where the Daily cannot be afforded
the Weekly serves a good purpose

INDUSTRIAL ED UCATION.

Our exchanges are growing more and
more in earnest on the subject of in
dustrial education in our public schools.
We give the following extract;
"A noiseless revolution" said the
PhizGdelp7iG Press, of recent date,
will take place in the city this morn
ing, of which very few of our citizens
will know anything, but which will
work great change in the lives of all
who will take part in it. Seven thous-
and little women in the public schools
will put aside books and states, and for
the day give their brains a rest, and
instead, set their little fingers to work.
By the new ruling of Superintendent
McAlister, this whole day is to be
devoted to the girls to sew. This
seems trifing matter, but it is, we
hope, the entering wedge of the indus
trial system into our public schools.
When we remember how many of
these girls come from homes where
they are taught neither cleanliness nor
neatness, nor any skill in he womanly
art of keeping themselves and their
surroundings decent, we can estimate
the yalue of the school training. Very
few women among the poorer classes
are able to make or mend a garment
unless they earn their living by that
kind of work. Half Of their earnings
go to buy ready. made clothes. We
have no objection to the system which
teaches every daughter of laboring
man who enters the public schools, no
matter what her ability or probable
future, science, mathematics and a
smattering of Latin but as she is to
be in all probability the wife and
mother of laboring men we suspect
that knowledge of dress and coat
making. and even common patching,
will stand her in better stead hereafter
than all of them put together. We
hope day in each week may be set
aside for this work.

that personal controversies are not
wanted, and cannot have room in the
paper. Those who have personal
difficulties to settle ought not to ask
