A Dakota farmer in 1881, planted a
single grain of wheat in one of his oat
fields. From it grew twenty-five
stalks, each one bearing full head.
These yielded $50 grains, $50 of which
were planted the next year, produc-
ing one-ffth ola bushel of splendid
wheat. This was planted last Spring,
yielding seventeen bushels, making
1920 pounds of wheat from one grain
in three years.

a very useful law, in force in other
States, is proposed for New Jersey.
1t says that atevery Railroad station, "a
blackboard, at least four feet long
and two feet wide, must be hung up
in conspicuous place, and on it the
agent or telegraph operator must
write, ten minutes before any passen-
ger train is due, the fact whether it is
on time or not; andiflate how much.
A fine of ten dollars is the penalty for
neglect. The law seems to bea good
one, and its enactment and enforce
ment would be convenience to the
travelling public and could work nc
injury to the railroads.

Rivers as a Source OF Cholera.

The London Lancet has made up its mind
that rivers have much to do with the spread of
cholera. Paper-makers will be interested to
know that the severity Of the last cholera cpl
demic at Grenada has been traced to water con-
tamination, due to paper mill. The rags used
at this mill were washed in the stream from
which Grenada City draws its water supply.
The rags thus washed came from Valencia and
other cholera centers. No cholera cases had
occurred In Grenada up To the time when these
rags were imported. Afterward the cholera
spread over the province, following in every
case the course OF the injected stream. Only
one town thus situated escaped infection, and
water. - 20
