The Height of a Tree.

Any person. however ill-informed.
might easily get at the exact height OF
a tree when the sun shines, or during
bright moonl ght, by marking two
lines on the ground, three feet apart
and then placing in the ground on the
ne nearest the sun. st ok that shall
stand exactly three feet out of the
soil. When the end of the shadow OF
the stick exactly touches the furthest
line, then also the shadow of the tree
will be exactly in length the same
mea> urement as its height Of course,
in such case. the sun will be at an ex-
act angle of forty-ive degrees. Meas
urements of this character could be
best effected in the summer, when the
sun is powerful, has reachedto a good
heigh. in the heavens, and when the
trees are clothed with living green
so as to cast a dense shadow. To
many to whom this idea may not
have occurred, it might be made annu-
ally matter of interest, thus on warm
summer days to take the height OF
prom nent .-ees. and so to compare
growth from year to Woods and
Forest.

INDIGESTION.
Not Disease. But Merely tho Natural

MOI DISEASE But Merely tho Notur0
Result of Errors In Diet.
Sir Henry Thompson remarks in
the Nineteenth Century: 1.-The martyr
to ind gestion' may, perhaps, be sur
prised to learn that nine out of ten
persons so affected are probably not
the subjects of any complaint what
ever. and that the stomach at any rate
is by no means necessarily faulty in its
action-in short, that what is popularity
termed indigestion is rarely disease in
any sense of the word, but merely the
natural result of errors in diet. Fol
most men it is the penalty of confor-
nifty to the eating habits of the MAORI
ty; and want of disposition or eater
prise to undertake trial of simpler
foods than those around them consume
probably determines the continuance oil
their unhappy troubles. | have fol
some years past been compelled by facts
which are constantly com ng before mt
to accept the conclusion thai
more m 'schief in the form of actual d
ease, of impaired vigor, and OF short
ened life accrues to civil zed man, sc
far rs have observed in our country
and throughout Western and Contra
Europe, from erroneous hab is IN eat
ing than from the habitual use of alco
holic drink, considerable as l know the
evil of that to be. am not sure thai
similar compar. son might not b.
made between the resp ctive influences

PEAR RAISING.

Instances Where the Culture of This Fruit
Has Become Exceedingly Profitable.
An instance of profitable pear-raising
Ii found in q report to the American
Pathological Society in regard to the
pear orchard of the Old Dominion Fruit
Growing Company, located seventy five
miles below Richmond. Va, on the
James River. The orchard contains
10000 trees, $4,000 of which are Bart
let's, and have nearly all been set since
1871. When the trees were planted
they were one or two years old. and
ground. They were cut back low to
make them low-headed. Twenty or
thirty acres are planted annually with
corn, as much more with peanuts and
the rest sown with black peas. which
are plowed under in the autumn.
This green manuring. together with
some mari, is all the fertilizing the
land receives. The company paid Sl2,-
600 for the farm and used $1,000 in
planting trees. and for other expenses.
The first dividend was paid in 1880.

the balance in the treasury from the
previous year. gave a cash dividend of
twenty per cent on the $50. 900 of capt.
tai stock. In 1881, 1000 boxes of pears
we're sold, with net return of $780,
out of which fifty per cent. dividend
was paid to the stockholders, besides
ten per cent. set aside for current ex-
penses. Most of the trees had been set
within the last eight years, and were
still quite small. These are results
which show that there is money to be
made in pear-raising when a suitable
location is selected, and the trees are
well cared for. Some times few pear
trees will afford quite profitable re-
turn for the space which they occupy.

Jersey, commenced to bear when eight

total of 81, 90O.55. Many man living
in a village has space enough on his lot
to set thirty or forty pear trees. Such
trees, well cared for. would, in a few
years. afford considerable aid to mo
chanic or day laborer in meeting his
current expenses. Chicago Times.

The rare sight of an ostrich with a
wooden leg might have been seen on
California ostrich farm some time ago.
The ostriches first Matched were de-
ficient in bone structure, deficiency
which has now been supplied, il is sup
posed, by a certain element in the food
of the parent bird. The bones in the
legs of these young chicks were very
soft and breakable. As an experiment,
the broken leg of one of the birds was
amputated and wooden one strapped
on. Those who have seen the ungainly
and mincing gait of the ostrich when
equipped with natural legs can imagine
what peculiar step one OF them would
have with an artificial limb. Unfortu-
nately the bird thus singularly equipped
broke his other leg above the knee and
