INHABITANTS OF TERRA DEL FUEGo-
Three tribes says Dr. J. d. Carson, inhabit
the archipelago OF Terra Del Fuego. First
The Onas, who occupy the north and cast
shores, resemble the Patagonians In being
tall race, and live chiefly by hunting
Second-The Yahgans, who are found on
the shores of the Beagle Channel and
southern islands, short, stunted race,
subsisting almost entirely on birds and the
product of the sea. Third-The Alacu
loofs, who dwell on the western islands,
all the population of the FGgian Islands
appears to be about 5000. In the general
character of the skull and skeleton the
tribes are like the other wild natives of
America, though certain peculiarties have
been assumed through isolation. Very lit
tie is as yet known of the social condition
of these people.

pRryIyG TREES AND WINES.


There are those who regard the pruning
season to be properly confined to the sea
son when the leaves are off the trees, etc.
but there is no question that young trees
and vines require watching during the
growing season, and such cutting done here
| and there as is needful to give proper shape
and direction to them. and not unfrequent-
| " they require cutting back, for various
reasons we'll known 10 irait-growers. AT
this season of the year care should be taken
to keep all superiluous shoots removed,
which by remaining will lessen the growth
of desirable wood or take strength from
maturing fruit. The same is true with
| sprouts starting up from the roots or the
! trunks of the grape vines. If orchard and
| vineyard are frequently gone over, these
growths are easily removed.
At the recent State Horticultural meet
ing, w. W. Smith, of Vaca Valley, gave
| his views as 10 pruning trees to secure
proper form, etc. as follows: Alter the
trees are first set in the orchard we prune
them about fifteen inches above the ground.
| Any buds which start below the first head
| of the tree, formed by pruning, should be
rubbed off, and the sap Will thus be saved
and forced upward. 1t is characteristic Of
budding tree that it seldom comes out
straight from the ground. The crook
usually found in such tree, as the stem
| emerges from the ground should be turned
to the north or northeast when the tree is
| planted, and that will usually prevent trees
| from being filed with borers, as the mill
| ers always lay their eggs on the south or
sunny side of the branch. If you wish
| your tree to grow straight YOU should
| prune on the inside of the branch In
pruning always be careful so as to bring
the shears out even with the bud. To keep
| the branch straight the buds on each side
should be pruned every alternate year.
Three branches forming triangle at the
| head of tree form about the best starter
| possible for a strong tree
| RAISING SHEEP FOR MUTTON.
| John Wentworth contributes TO the chi
cnqo Times an earnest plea for the South
downs, which he asserts cost scarcely any
| thing TO raise leave land richer than they
| find it. destroy noxious weeds and plants
\ and get the sod into tame grass, whilst
| they will also eat bunch grass which cattle
ordinarily refuse. He states that he has
kept them for twenty-five years, and found
| no difficulty in keeping them in good con-
dition in winter on prairie grass alone
| They can be herded in the same pasture
| with horses and cattle, their sprightliness
| enabling them to keep out of the way OF
injury. A half-blooded Southdown-the
cross upon Merino or long-wooled sheep
makes very good mutton. The second

THE RAILROAD

Was begun by Mr.. Meigs in 1870. Starting
from the sea- it ascends the narrow valley
of the once sacred Rimac, rising 5000 feet
in the first forty-six miles, to healthy val
lev, where the people of Lima have found
an attractive summer resort; then it fol-
lows winding, giddy pathway along the
edge of precipices and over bridges that
seem suspended in the air tunnels the An
des at an altitude of 1865 feet-the most
elevated spot in the world where a piston
rod is moved by steam-and ends at Oroya,
12,17S feet above the sea. Between the
coast and the summit there is not an inch
of down grade, and the track has been
forced through the mountains by a series
of si1ty-three tunnels, whose aggregate
length is u 900 feet. The great tunnel OF
Galera. BY which the pinnacle of the An
des is pierced, will be, when completed,
| :, 800 feet long, and will be the highest ele-
yation on the earth's surface where any
such work has been undertaken. Besides
boring the mountains of granite and blast
| ing the cliffs along their sides to rest the
! track upon, steep cuttings ard superb
| bridges, the system OF reverse tangentS h9d
| to be adopted in canyons that were too
narrow for q curve So the track zigzags
up the mountain side, on the switch and
| baek-up principle, the trains taking one
/ lean forward, and after being switched on
| to aaother track, another leap backward
until The summit is Won so that often
| there are four or five lines of track parallel
| to each other, one above another

on THE MOUNTAIN SIDE.

Almost the entire length of the road was
made by blasting. There is no earth in
sight except what was carted up for use in
ballasting, aud the work of grading was
done, not by the pick and shovel, but with
the drill and hundreds of thousands of
pounds of powder. Its estimated that the
construction of this road cost Peru 1000
lives from pestilence and accident. Land
slides, falling powders, premature explo-
sions, sorrache-a disease which attacks
those who are not accustomed to the raw
air of the high altitudes-feyers caused by
deposits of rotten granite and other causes
resulted in frightiul mortality during the
seven years the road was under construc-
ton, but the project was pushed on until
the funds gave out. The cost in human life
was no obstacle. At several points it was
necessary to lower men by ropes over the
edge of preciPices to drill holes in rocks
and put in charges of blasting power, and
this reckless style of construction was at
tended by frequent fatalities. curious
accident occurred at one point on the line,
where plumber was soldering a leak in a
water-pipe. A train of mules was being
driven up the trail loaded with cans of
powder. One of them rubbed against the
plumber, who struck at the animal with
his red-hot soldering iron, which in some
way came in contact with the powder and
caused an explosion, which blew the whole
train Of mules, the gang OF workmen, the
