appears to be this: that there is moth
ing to be gained by trying to read old
theology into new science. 1t may be,
as MIR. Fiske aflirms, that the found a.
tion of Christian theology have not
been shaken--no one needs to be dog
matte on that point-but, as theology
is matter of revelation and science a
matter of observation, it is well TO
keep the two rs separate as possible.
The method of science Is gradual
method; little by little we widen the
circle of our knowledge; little by little
we improve our hypothesis. Theology
makes from the first the most compre-
hensive statements, and offers solu-
tions of the profoundest problems. To
apply, therefore, the dicta or the gen
eral conceptions of theology to the
province of science is to run much
risk of injuring the work of science by
the forcing of premature conclusions;
admitting that theology has nothing
to teach that is positively erroneous.
That loyalty to truth so fittingly refer
red to by the author requires us to
content ourselves with such conclus-
ions az we can reach by lawful appro-
pirate methods. If we see a law of
natural selections at work, let us try
to get as clear an understanding as
possible of the manner of its workings;
but let us be very careful how we per-
sonify it, and how we imputc to our
personitcation feelings and purposes
which correspond with nothing in the
facts as we know them. Nothing
could be more opposed to the human
idea of work" than the process of
natural selection as described by our
author himself, yet he constantly
speaks of the ''work" of natural selec~
tion. He tells us that ''in the desper-
ate struggle for existence no pecul-
iarity has been too insignificant for
natural selection to seize and enhance !;
just us if natural selection were some
vigilant intelligence watching for OPP
pOrtunities to advance its designs.
The same fact which is thus expressed
in, as think, misleading metaphorical
language could have been expressed in
honest prose by saying that ''in the
desperate struggle for existence no
popularity was too insignificant to
contribute to survival or destruction,
as the case might be-" There we have
the fact without any illegitimate i'm
plications; and it is thus, as it strikes
me, that scientific facts should be de-
scribed. Popular Science M0nthLy for

The Gum OF Trees.

1t has been discovered by French
scientist that the gum which collects
on the branches Of trees-especially
the cherry, peach, plum and others
bearing stone fruits due to disease
of the tree. The disease is produced
by highly organized fungus, whose
action causes the formation of the gum,
and it is quickly reproduced in sound
trees when they are inoculated with
pieces of the gum containing any OF
the fungus. .- Scientific Jo'TnM

In regard to raising fruit beyoad the

this is practiced to q considerable ex-
tent, and with more or less success.
Unless, however, it is predominant

We would not be understood thai
every farm should not, if possible, raise
enough fruit for its own supply; anc
there are few farms where it cannot BIZ
done, the same as there are few part,
ofthe country where plentiful family
supply of fruit cannot be raised in the

fruit growing for the family and trui
growing for market is very clear, anc

Our Poultry Department.
Poultry In England.
Nat. stockman and Farmer.

To show the attention paid tc poul.
try in England, we would state that the
London Lire St0ek journal OF January
IS, contains six pages devoted exclu-
sively to poultry, pigeons and pet
stock. The greater portion of this is
made up of reports of recent exhibit
tons, and Recommendations concern.
ing the success and failure OF cores
pondents in the various specialties.
We wish to notice two or three par
tlculars in which the poultry business
of our English cousins differs from
ours.
First. this specially has been en-
couraged for years there, while in this
country but little attention was given
it before 1880. The late Prince Con-
sort was noted fancier and encour-
aged Others BIZ offering valuable prizes
for superior excellence in bred
fow,s. He owned many fine birds and
won various prizes on them. His ex.
ample was followed by the gentry and
the clergy, aud Sirs and Reverends
are reported as frequent winners at the
recent shows. This should be the
case in this country. Many gentlemen
of wealth and leisure are dying for
want of something to interest them.
What can furnish this in a more attrac-
tive form than the cultivation of fancy
fowls, that would not only prove a
thing of beauty on their spacious
grounds. but would be the means oil
furnishing their owner with the freshest
and best CT eggs, and their owners
nelghbors with choice breeders for i'm
proving their native stock? No dan.
ger ofthe farmer and market poulterer
being discouraged by either the sue
cesseS or the attempted successes OIL
the fancier IN this country. The for
mer shows what may be attained, and
the latter OTTER gives US a chance to
improve our stock at small outlay.
Second, in the perfection to which
many of the best varieties have been
brought. we can surpass Our English
friends. True, we are indebted to
them for the Dorkings, some of the
Games, and for several varieties Ct the
waterfowl; also for great improve
ments in Cochins. Brahmas and per-
haps in the Langshans; but they have
been paying too much attention to
Bantams and fancy pigeons, while their
more practical French and American
neighbors have been perfecting a
number of the most useful, and at the
same time most beautiful breeds. Now
they are fast beginning to realize this,
and are bringing from across the
channel the Crevecours and Houdans,
! and are paying vast sums for our Ply.
! mouth Rocks and Wyandottes.
