Money Vegetation.

A short time since Paul Reinsch
discovered several kinds of minute
plants-including two algae which had
before been unknown-growing upon
coins after having been long enough in
circulation to receive thin incrustations
of organic matter. A Hungarian bota-
mist, Jules Scharrschmidt, has more
recently found the microscopic growths
upon paper money, even the cleanest
specimens not being free from them.
He has detected seven species, includ>
ing although they are rare-the two
new algae discovered by Reinsch.

Wheat or Poultry?

There are thousand of farmers who
barely make good living, and some
that don't even do that, raising grain
and vegetables, who if they would
devote little time and expense in
breeding the improved varieties of
poultry, could easily make something
to clay up for a rainy day." but they
persist in going on and on, raising
corn, oats, wheat, tomatoes, ETC., and
often selling below what it cost to
produce them.
We refer this class of farmers to
the following statistics Of the value
of the poultry produce Of the United
States for 1882:
COtton...... ....,......... .......,$410,0 100000

Dairy products. ......"""... 254, O00,O OO
heat...........,. .,....... .....'.. 4o5,UUU,UUU
Poultry 0oU,OUU,VOU
Notwithstanding this, poultry is
the only produce we do not export.
This amount was all consumed at
home; indeed, we imported over
100000 dozen eggs in 1882, and
still eggs always command a good
price, and the supply isnever equal to
the demand. The poultry businessis
really the most important business in
the country; and why is it? Well,
it is simply because there is not more
than one person in thousand who is
not fond of either poultry or eggs, OF
both. The fact is, instead of being
within the reach of all, as they shuld
be, poultry and eggs are, and always
have been, beyond the means OfsOme
people to buy. There is no danger
of getting 50 great a number that
the supply viii exceed the demand
There will always he a market for all
that can be produced--EX.

The Rich Mans Fear of Burglars
The Story of an Electrician.

Buffalo, N. ". News.
At the dead of night, Mr.. j. B.
Anthony, a wholesale grocer of Troy,
N. Y, was awakened by his burglar
alarm annunciator, which told him
that his house had been entered through
the roof scuttle. He hastily dresses,
rings for a policeman, hurries to the
upper story, and hears the burglar in
the servants room, threatening her
with instant death if she made loud
noise.
He was captured, convicted and sem
fenced to Sing Sing prison for ten
years.
So said Mr.. c. H. Westfall, the
electrician of West6eld, N. Y, to our
reporter.

"Do wealthy men have much fear
Of burglars ?"
AS rule, wealthy men do not keep
valuables in their house, and yet they
are not sure that they shall escape bur
glanous attacks, and they don't feel
secure without a first.class burglar
alarm apparatus in their house. Every
door, window and scuttle is connected
with the annunciator, and it is quite
impossible to affect an entrance with>
