Wheat in india.

Considerable interest has of late
been manifested as to the ability Of
India's materially competing with us
in the supply of wheat for Europe.
1t will take many years, with all the
advantages We possess, before such
thing can he accomplished, for as she
advances in the production of the
grain the immense millions of people
Of the East will be educating them
seIyes to its use. From the Mark
Lane (E7g.) Express we copy the fol-
lowing paragraph: The Agricul-
tural Department of the Indian gov
ernment has published an account of
certain inquiries regarding the pro,
ductiOn of wheat which have been
lately undertaken at the instance of
the Secretary of State. From this
document it appears that the area TN
der wheat in British India comprises
about 2O,000,O00 acres, yielding be-
tween 100000 and 100000 tons,
The corresponding area in the native
territory is about 5000, 900 acres, and
yields 100000 tons. The produc-
ton per acre varies from an average
of thirteen bushels in the northwest
provinces and Dude to seven in Berar.
The soft white wheat which com.
mands the highest price in the Euro
pean markets grows to greatest per-
fection in Northern India, Raipoo.
tana, and Guzerat. The soft red
wheat ranks next, and comes chiefly
from the Nerbudda Valley. 1t is
estimated that when the railway sys-
tenn is in more developed state one
fourth, or possibly more, of the out
turn will in good years be available
for export. The cost of production
varies greatly in different provinces.
1t is calculated for Northern India at
about Us. the quarter. Some doubt
exists as to whether the soil has not
deteriOrated under wheat cultivation;
but the answers on this point are de-
scribed as being on the whole encour-
aging"

The New Old-Testament.

The revised translation of the Old
Testament, which will shortly be
published, may not take the place of
the authorized version in popular
estimation but ii may he fairly ex
pected to clear up many infelicities
and obscurities in that version which
puzzle the ordinary reader.
The "unicorn" which never existed
outside the English Bible will at last
be killed, and the "wild OK" substi-
tuted in its place. The "BOok of
flasher" will lie changed to the Book
OF the Upright" Sunday school chill

Egyptians and then running away

rightly state that they asked f,,s. gifts.
not loans, Joseph's many .coiored
"coat" will be ii "tunic." The cele-
brated passage in the Book of Job,
"Yet in my flesh shall l see Cod"
Will be changed to "Yet out of my
flesh" etc. "Judgment also will |
lay to the line, and righteousness to
the plummet," will read: II will
make judgment for a line, and rightp-
business for plumb line" In Psalm
vii. the passage Thou hast made
him a little lower than the angels"
wilt be: "Thou hast made him
little lower than God" In Psalm
XXXVii. the passage Fret not thyspIf
in any wise to do evil" will he
changed to Fret not thyself; it tend.
eth to evil" And in Psalm xviii,
the passage "rhe Lord gave the
word; great was the company of
those that published it" "will be made
to read THE Lord giveth the word,
and the women that bring glad It'd
lngs are a great host"
These are fair samples Of many of
the changes which will be made. The
ann Of the translat0rs has been to re-
produce the meaning of the original
as closely and accurately as possible.
1t Is pleasant to know that this OBJ
Iect will be attained without affecting
any of the great dogmatic statements
contained in the authorized version.
The revision will simply clarity the
present venerable translation.-N Y,

Nature never intended for people
TO wash down their food while eat
ing. She has wisely placed saIiyary
glands in various places in our
mouths; they secrete a fluid for the
moistening, besides chemical action
OF the food after mastication. This
gets the food in a suitable condition
for swallowing. Drinking every few
minutes while eating prevents the
usual flow of saliva ; also it washes it
down before it can have a chemical
action on certain portions of the food.
One of the most perniciOus habits to
health is drinking several tumbles of
water while eating; better drink

of food until all the fluid is first alb
sorbed. No healthy person should
drink more than halfpint of some
mild fluid while taking food, and
dyspeptics should not drink a drop
while they are eating, nor for three

them that even in the midst of mirth

to teach that all shonld prepare for

follow him, let him call when he
would. The lesson can we'll be re.
