SCIENTIFIC AND INDUSTRIAL.

DIR. Paul Gussfeldt, who had under

task owing 10 the extreme cold, but he
succeeded in taking some very instruct

region.
1t is said that the c0chineal trade has
been nearly ruined by the discovery Of
aniline dyes. Until very recently this
trade was the mainstay of the island Of
Tencriffe, the cochineal depending upon
the cultivation Of the cactus plant,
which, since the suppression Of the trade
Of aniline, is no longer the rcmuneratiye
business that it formerly was The fail

of society, the rich as well as the poor.

a deadly epidemic Z Testimony of Euro

hypothesis. One writer says: Il ven

collection of trustworthy meteorological
data during the prevalence of cpidemics,
and of collateral information bearing
thereupon, have not yet received as much
attention as it deserves from observers
outside of the medical profession"
In the United States in 1882 there
were 1872, $50 net tons Of lead produced,
worth at an average value of 800 per net
ton on the Eastern seaboard $12, 624 500.
For the first half Of 1888 the production
Is estimated at 20, 900 net tons, worth, at
800 per ton So, 300, 900. A very large
proportion of the lead ore smelted is ar
gentiferous, and is worked for its silver
contents, and not for the value of the
lead. In the census year ending May 81,
1880, the amount Of white lead corroded
was reported at 1913, Ar, $50 pounds.

Carving "a Turkey.

The best way to carve turkey, says
Burdett, is: First-Buy turkey that
died a natural death at the age of
ninety-six years. The bluer the meat
the tougher the turkey. Second
Roast it until you can strike fire out
Of its breast with a milestone. Third
Use the carving knife all the year
for splitting kindling wood, opening
fruit cans, joining stove pipe, potting
house plants, digging fish worms and
scraping knife brick. Fourth--Put
the turkey on a platter two sizes
smaller than the bird. Fifth Set the
gravy close to the fowl en- one side
and something else easily spilled on
the other. SiXth-Tnen invite your
guests, and then invite young man
who has not yet armed TO swear, to
cave the sacrifice. He w II learn in
six minutes. To carve? Oh, the gods
pity you, no, no, no not to carve.

A New Beverage from MILK.

The British Me1ical Journal says
While during the last few years koumiss
has been introduced into Western Eu-
rope, and even into America, new
drink prepared from cows milk, by pro
cess of fermentation imperfectly under
stood, is coming into use in Russia. This
drink is kefir, and has for long time
formed the chief article of diet
among the mountaineers in the
neighborhood of Mt Elbruz and Kas.
bek in the Caucasus. 1t forms a thick,
white fluid, with "A family acid flavor,
said to resemble certain light wines.
The mountaineers themselves call il
"ghippo." The inhabitants of the
plains near the Caucasus and the Russian
settlers, who term it kefir, kifir or khia.
far. make use of il, not for the table, but
as popular remedy for anaemia, struma
gastric catarrh and chronic bronchitis.
According to the Moscow Medical Gq.
zette where a contribution on the subject
has recently appeared, DR. Kern being
the author, the preparation of kefir Is
very simple. The mountaineers make II
by filling bag made of goatskin with
milk, then tenacious mass of the size
of walnut of material which they
term ''ketir seed, and the precise origin
of which is unknown, is added to the
milk. In few hours the process of fer.
mentation sets in actively. When pre-
pared in wooden or glass vessels the ketil
tastes better. After a lapse of twenty
four hours weak kefir is produced
When the process is allowed to continue
for three DAYS the kefr becomes very
strong. The source of the ferment is
scrupulously concealed by the Caucasian
mountaineers, who cannot be persuaded
to enlighten strangers to any greater ex.
tent than in supplying a small sample Of
the ferment. in the form of dry, dark
brown, earthlike masses, but steadfastly
refusing to say whence they are obtained
One of these fragments dropped into mills
begins rapidly to effervesee, turns milk
white, and assumes the form of mul
berry; then fermentation proceeds al
once. If piece thus transformed bC
dropped into another bowl of milk i
rapidly increases in size and also causes
fermentation. DR.. Kern has CAREFUL,
examined specimens of this :" kefir seed,
which consists chiefly of masses o
zooglma, holding together collections o
bacterium which he calls :. Dispor;
Caucasica.n The yeast fungus, Sacchar
omvces cerevisia, is always found asso
ciated with this new germ. "Kefir seed
retains its vitality after remaining 70
months in its dry condition DR. Kerr
has great belief in the future of keller
which has all the virtues of koumiss, an,
possesses one great advantage over tn
latter fluid, in that it is just as goo
when prepared from cows as from mare
milk.
