Tree Day in the West.

The new spring holiday of the West
ern country grows in favor every year.
They call it Arbor Day, the word arbor
being Latin for tree. The boys and
girls, however, call it, when they are
talking with one another, Tree Day,
which is better name for it.
On that festive occasion every man,
every woman and every child is expected
to plant at least one tree The schools
turn out and make day of it. Colleges
and universities have holiday, of which
they spend portion in tree planting,
and another portion in celebrating the
beauty, glory and utility of trees; and
you may be sure that some sonorous stu
dent does justice, or CALAMITY tries to do
justice, to Bryant's "Forest Hymn"
1t was but natural that this exquisite
holiday should have been devised in the
great West, where both wood and woods
arc so much needed -wood for daily use
as fuel and timber, and woods for beau
ty, protection and the garnering of the
precious moisture upon which fertility
depends.
1t is interesting, as one rides along
over the prairies, to notice how the set
tiers have striven to eXtcmporize little
show of wood, and to shelter their homes
from the steady, strong, unrelenting
prairie winds. Sometimes, however, the
trees are of too slight a texture to stand
many winters on the open plain. Moth
ing answers the purpose except good,
solid, hard wood trees, such as compose
the forests of Ohio and Western New
York-oak, beech, hickory, chestnut
and ash.
Another thing surprises the traveller
going West for the first time, and that is
the splendid growth of hardwood trees
in portions of Illinois, and even in
newer Iowa, which, within the memory
of farmers now living, were naked
prairie. There are woods within hun
dred miles of Chicago which, after a
growth of less than forty years, exhibit
much of the luxuriant beauty OF the pri-
meval forests in the Eastern States.
Such woods show how adapted the
prairie land is to the growth of trees and
give the greatest possible encouragement
to tree planting.
Arbor Day is now celebrated in many
ways, according to the needs of the re-
gion in which the celebration is held. In
the far West the effort is made to set
out the greatest possible number of
trees, for the field is boundless and the
need urgent. In other places teachers
and pupils direct their efforts chiefly to
planting shade-tr along streets, and
country roads, and in public parks

SCIENTIFIC AND INDUSTRIAL.

A French Investigator has detected
periodical variations of earth currents in
direct relation with the movement of the
moon or the tides.
Professor Ditmar, Swedish scientist,
prides himself upon having perfected a
process for converting Kerosene oil into
substance much resembling tallow in
its appearance, which, he says, can cas-
lily be made into candles.
An English writer points out the
probability that smoky atmosphere is
not wholly unmitigated evil, since its
carbon and sulphur must absorb many
germs of disease, and tend to prevent
the spread of epidemics.
How unsuccessful inventors of snow
plows have been, says Industrial America,
may be guessed from the fact that about
4,500 inventions have been patented re-
lating to snow plows and other apparatus
for reno, ing snow from railroad tracks.
Last winter, what might be called a
steam snow-plow was successfully tried
upon one of the Canadian roads.
DR.. A. T. deRochebrune has described
to the Paris academy of sciences a we'll
established variety of domestic OK, which
is peculiar to Sencgambia, and is charac
terizcd by third horn growing from the
nose and identical in construction and
development to the two frontal horns.
The animals are very liable to cpizootic
peripneumonia. and from time imme-
mortal the Moors Fulahs OF Senegambia
have practiced upon the creatures pre-
ventive incubation with the virus of that
disease.
According to the Builainq Meos, man
ufacturers of wood mosaic say that they
have found by experiments that hard
maple on end is from four to five times
as durable as marble and equally as dur
able rs the hardest baked tile. 1t is re-
ported that two endwood floors were
laid in the elevators of public build
ing in Chicago about fifteen months
ago, and hat the floors are in as good
condition as when first laid, al
though each elevator carries from 1000
to 1900 people daily.
A workman in cutting fifteen inch
files in a certain French steel works uses
a hammer weighing seven and seven
tenths pounds and wears out handle
of holly wood in about one year, after
having struck about II ,250,00 blows
with the hammer. In cutting triangular
files about five inches long, and in metal
somewhat softer than the above, the
hammer used weighs two and two
tenths pounds, and the holly handle
lasts about two years, and has been used
in striking %, 440, 900 blows.
Specimens of pods and seeds which
take the place of soap in China were ex-
hibited by Mr.. f. B. Forbes at a recent
meeting of the Linnean society of Lon
don. He stated that for ordinary cleans
ing purposes an impure earthly soda and
a lye made from wood ashes are employed,
while the leaves of two plants are &C.
casionally used on the head. The favor
lite substance, however, seems to be the
'feitsao tom or "fat black beans" The
roasted pods are used for washing clothes
as well as for bathing, and women cleanse
their heads with the seeds. Pods of
Gleditschia sinensis known to the Chi
nese as ''tsoa- chio') are boiled to prepare
q washing infusion also much employed

DEL of Laughter.

Chalcas, the soothsayer, died of laugh
ter at the thought of his having out
lived the time predicted for his death.
A fellow in rags had tod him that he
would never drink the wine of the
grapes growing in his vineyard; and
added: If my words do not come true,
you may claim me AS your slave" When
the wine was made Chalcas held feast
and sent for the fellow to come and see
how his predictions had failed. When
he appeared the soothsayer laughed so
immediately at the would-b prophet
that it killed him. Crassus, the Roman
orator, died from laughter at seeing an
ass eat thistles. Zeuxis, the Grecian
painter, died at the sight of a bag he
. had just depic ted.

TheAge of Electricity.

The possible applications of the prlncl-
pie of the electrical transmission OF power,
are almost numberless, writes CORE
spondent OF Van N0Strdad'S Maqa.iae, New
York We shall, believe, at no distant
date, have great central stations, possibly
situated at the bottom of coal pits, where
enormous steam engines will drive many
electric machines. We shall have wires
laid along every street, the electricity
tapped into every house, and the quantity
of electricity used in each house regis.

battery will fill a place corresponding to
the gasometer in the gas SYSTEM making
the current steady, rendering the con-

or stoppages of the dynamos of the cen
trail station, and enabling the use of
dynamos of the highest tension-i. e.,
those which produce the currents of the
greatest intensity. The electricity will
be passed through little electric machines
to drive machinery to produce ventilation,
to replace stoves, and to work all sorts
of apparatus, as we'll as to give
everybody an electric light. Solar
heat will be used to run

such waterfalls as Niagara are to be util

Steam, which in the last century has
conferred so many benefits on the world,

dynamo will replace the steam engine.

yet when steam was first thought of as
an available force its advocates were con-
sidered just as the advocates Of dy-

Cost of Collegiate Education.

The annual expenses of a course of
study at old BowdOin is from $500 to
$500. II is not fashionable there to be
extravagant
An Amherst college student can finish
the course at cost of $3.50 year, and
at the outside it need not cost him over
$1,000,
The expenses at Vassar college run
from 5000 to 81. COO a year. The girls
have not foot ball teams or rowing crews
to support.
Brown University is rather expensive.
A scholar can spend $ 900 year if he
wants to, but the actual expenses need
not exceed $3.50.
Yale, Harvard and Columbia colleges
are the most expensive in this country.
The minimum expenses are from $500
to 5000, while the maximum are put at
5000.
One of the cheapest colleges to attend
in this country is at Beloit, Wis. Board
is 81. 80 week, and it is almost impos.

A funeral procession, described by Mr..
More in his recent work, entitled, Gun
der the Balkans, was remarkable in the
first place for yoke of white oxen
drawing a wagon with wicker sides, on
which the cOflin-that of a woman
was placed feet foremost On the front
of the wagon rode the priest, carrying
in his hands sacristy made of clay; and
behind sat one Of the relatives. 1t was
followed by small crowd of about
twenty or thirty mourners, mostly
women, wearing gowns of coarse home
spun cloth, colored aprons, and hand
kerchiefs on their heads, being the usual
costume of the country. Arriving at the
ruins of the battered and destroyed
church of st. George, the procession
stopped, and the mourners crossed
themselves, while the priest scattered in
cense on all sides. The corpse, which
was wrapped in colored blanket, the
face only being exposed, was carried into
the church, placed before the altar, and
laid feet eastward in the blanket, the
head being supported by pillow. The
body was clad in u gold braided bridal
costume, handkerchief on the head,
shoes and stockings on the feet and a
gold chain around the neck. On the
breast was placed lighted triple
branched wax taper, and lunches of
flowers were also laid on the breast and
placed in the hand. A small oil lamp
was burning near the head. A loaf of
bread on a plate, pan of boiled wheat,
and dish of honey were set near the
corpse. The mourners and congrega-
ton to the number of about fifty, mostly
women, each held a lighted taper, as did
also the two officiating priests and the
clerks

There is no doubt that corn fodder,
either grown as grain or in drills for chat
iing, makes the cheapest as well as best,
feed for COWS. A heaping bushel basket
of cut stalks three times Il day will keep
the cows in good condition. If they are
giving milk a ration of meal should be
added. The product of an acre of
drilled corn will furnish more than
enough feed to winter COW and will
give more grain than she will need.
