Skrivanor primary battery is placed on
the lamp standard, and the glow ap-
pears on burner similar to that of oil
lamps. The battery consists of pack

four hours, at the end of which time
there is no waste of the elements, but
the chloride of silver becomes converted

nave anything to do with them.
No, shall never vote again until we

That it Is better to spread manure Oh
the field at once rotten than to place IT
in heaps and thereafter spread IT is OBJ
vious if the matter is carefully looked
into. 1t is not probable that the escape
of gases inte the air is any greater in
the one case than in the other. Spread
evenly. the soluble parts are carried
equally into the earth, the manure is
more easily turned under than when
newly laid, and it takes longer to spread
from the heap than from the wagon.
The matter is of especial importance in
manurlng for summer crops.

A1aGTag0rGS, the Rhod1an, held that
earthquakes are nothing but a sort of

of water through the assures OF rocky
sea bottom ; and Pliny, to the pressure
of air il deep caves, confined and re-
acting against the collapse of superin-
cumbent rock strata. But the most
ingenious explanation was offered by
ST. Thomas, of Aquinas, who suggested
that earthquakes may be caused by the

An important part of the farmers
business is to make manure from as

thing that is capable of being converted
into manure should be added to the
heap, but the manure should thoroughly
