which, IN comparatively short time, the horns
have been bred out of some of our domestic cat

cranial characters, may be gathered from the
fact, that the pelled. Galloway, eattla have: lost
their horns and acquired frontal pIotuberance

Generous Hospitality Of Citizens of Madison
--FaDiaty of the Educational Exhibit.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.


MADISON Wis, July T1-The citizens of
Madison are, covering themselves with glory.By
the manner i'm which they are enacting the5role
OF hosts:to this great educational convention,
In the first place, every latch. string is out and
all houses, public and private are full of
guests who are entertained for a consideration,
1t is true, but for a consideration SO nearly
nominal thatit has the genuine fayoro of open
hospitality The Capitol Building and, the
churches are all atthedisposal of the convention,
Tor whatever use it needs wishes to make of
them, and in addition to this. on Tuesday night,
in honor of the opening of the association proper
the grandest illumination ever witnessed in this
part of the world, was given by the citizens,
The Capitol was, merely for this occasion,
studded with electric.ligh from dome to. foun-
dation, while thousands of Chinese lanterns
adorned the beautiful park around, as. we'll as
the principal buildings along the adjacent
streets. In addition tosprivate and hotel accom-
mediation. hundreds: of government tents have
been erected in the Capitol Park, which are
about as comfortable and attractive place of
lodging as. could well be imagined during this
charming weather
The educational exhibit. is the largest and
most varied of anything of the kind seen since
the Centennial exhibit, and it is by no. means
certain that it does not excel that Certainly it
contains some features never before Witnessed
on so large SCALE The, Industrial schools and
kndergartens are coming to the front tits
true that the exhibits of such schools cam be-
made more striking to the eye than those. of any
other, but that marvellous progress in industrial
education has been made in this country since
the Centennial year must be conceded by every
one Oursown Purdue comes to- the very front
In this line and probably shows. the largest and
hnestlot of products in wood, iron and. in art.
President Smart has again shown his won
derful skill and enterprise in the arranging
of this magnificent display, for the whole
of it has been under His general
management The details. are too many to
give in a communication of this sort; they will
appear in due time in the published proceedings
of the convention. It is enough to say that the
versity, the st. Louis Ind4sErial SCHOOL, and the
Massachusetts School of Technology all have
grand displays, each exhibiting some feature of
its own.
The association is now in full motion, and is
divided into some seven sections, alp holding
that there is little comfort in attending. any OF
them. The truth must beconfessed, it is too
big a thing, and will be memorable chiefly for
its enormous proportions and is not likely to be
repeated on its present scale:

Bones ON the Farm.
American Agricultural.

American Agricultural
It is well enough to know that bone, when
ground fine. makes one of the best and cheapest
manufes, especially on lands long in use. The
needs of farmers with abundant capital are well
enough met in the commercial fertilizers With
the experiment stations to analyze the sam
pies, there is not much danger of adulteration.
Fhe high price OF this cOmninuted bone, cents
a pound and upward, deters many farmers from
using 1T on large scale, even where there is no
doubt that the investment would. pay. In a
limited way. the small farmer has the means
within his reach to reduce several barrels of
bones to fine powder every year. A solution
of potash will reduce bones to fine condition,
and make it valuable for plant food. Most farm
ers still use wood for fuel, and the ashes from
the fifteen or twenty cords used in a year, if
saved, would reduce all the bones ordinarily
within reach of the farmer. The old-fashioned
leach that used to stand at almost every farmers
back door for soap making, was good contrix-
ance for reducing the bones But any tight,
strong cask or box will answer quite as we'll for
this purpose. Water poured upon the ashes
makes I've, or solution Of potash, strong enough
to dec0mposa the bones. The casks should stand
under cover. SO that the quantity of water APP
piled to the bone and ashes may be under con-
troll. The time it will take to reduce the bone to
powder will depend upon the amount of potash
in the ashes, and attention bestowed upon the
process. II is essential that the ashes and bone
should be closely packed in the mass, and that
they be kept in moist state, adding water as it
eeaporates from the surface. The fperthe bone
before it is packed in the ashes, the sooner it
will be reduced The process can be fastened
by putting into tine mass few pounds Of
common potash. But this is only
necessary to save time Ashes
from hickory, or any Of the hard woods contain
sufficient r0dasii to decompose the bone. When
tbs mass IS soft enough to break down with q
spade Or shovel II can be mixed with land plas-
ter dried peat or loan to make, it convenient for
handling. 1t is concentrated fertilizer, to be
used with discretion in the hill. or applied as a
opdressing to growing crops in the garden or
field. We are quite sure that any one who uses
this preparation Of. bone and wood ashes, and
sees the vigorous. push it gives to garden and
other crops, will be likely to eentinueit But
tons Use coal mainly for fuel and will have to
resort to a hand or horse mill to use up the
waste bones. Small mills are extensively used
by poultry men for crushing oyster shells as
well as bone, and the machinery can be adjusted

From the above it will be seen that the bal
ances. at the clearing-hous yesterday were
small Indeed, they were not over one-half the
ordinary amount when business is brisk This
indicates that the people are not drawing
heavily on the'banks, and shows their confidence
in them. With the exception Of that against
Harrison's Bank the balances were insignificant
when compared with what often occurs at the
clearing house IN ordinary times.
ALI the banks that were indebted to the Clear
ing house paid their accounts promptly, and
the others were paid in turn. When his account
was presented by Mr.. Weellen, Mr.. Harrison
said he would not pay it. Some of the checks,
he said, he would like to pay. but others he
would not and he asked Mr.. Weoilen to be al
lowed to make his selection. This was refused
and Mr.. Woollen returned the checks on Har-
risens' Bank to the various banks whence they
came. Mr. Harrison visited several of these and
paid off a number of small checks particularly

European arises and removes his hat
the Mussulman remains seated with his
head covered. When entering place

moving his hat, the Mussulman takes
off his shoes, and leaves than outside
the door. We consider the right side
as the place of honor; the Moor the left.
When inviting friend to enter his
house the Moor steps in first and lets
his guest follow him. Kissing the
hand is sign Of respect with us; the
Moor when saluting kisses his own
hand. 1t would not be very dig
nified for q European King to
carry an open umbrella when in kingly
