HOW CANOES ARE CUT.
Engraving Upon Mineals. Does Not Pay.
New York Mail and cypress.

The art of cameo-cutting was intro
duced into the United States in 1850. 1t
has made no progress. Finished canoes
sell for less now than they did then, The
only two manufacturers of canoes in the
United States are in this city, and they
find very little work to do The greater
part of the trade is in initiating antique
gems or in matching canoes brought
from Europe. There Is probably no
business requiring so great artistic skill
and such delicate manipulation in which
the pay of the workman is SO poor. One
of the manufacturers of this city said:
ANY man would be fool TO learn the
trade with the hope of making money by
IL. | have to import all my workmen
from Europe. | tried to teach two APP
prentices, but they found that the skill
they acquired would prove more valuable
in the making of artificial teeth, and in
time they became dentists. and now
one of tnom has large practice.
Great numbers of canoes come from
Italy, but the finest come from Paris
quartz blocks from which canoes are cut
are imported into this country in shapes
ready for cutting. The kinds of quartz
most commonly used are onyx, sardonyN,
chalcedony, jasper, turquoise, and certain
species of shells. They can also be cut
on any stone or jewel except a diamond.
A cameo differs from an intaglio in that
1t is executed in relief, while the later is q
sunk engraving, Canoes are best cut in
minerals which present various bands of
two or more distinct colors The raised
engraving is generally of one color,
while the BACKGROUND is of strongly
contrasting color. The former is gener-
ally white and She latter dark, The cutter
draws with a lead-pencil on the white
surface of the block the design which he
intends Co produce in cameo. He then
follows the outlines with diamond and
cuts away the whit, parts outside. If the
stone Is small. he ctments it on the end
of stick; If large, he holds it in his hand
and proceeds to work upon it with fine
drills He sits at table like sewing
machine table, and by a tlCsdle works a
small lathe situated at his right At his
left is n frame filed with drills made of
| steel wire and of all varieties of shapes,
/ The ends oi the drills are covered with
/ diamond-dust ground in olive oil. The
/ dust is obtained by crushing uncut dia-
monds by blows of a hammea in a small
! steel mortar. The cutter has placed be
4 fore him picture or model of the sub
! ject TO be made Everything then
depends upon the correctness OF his eye
and his artistic insuincts The work is
/ inexpressibly slow, but when completed it
is marvelously perfect. Although very
small the figures are as complete in every
detail as though they were ten feet high.
A skilled workman will often make an
elegant cutting, or even n portrait, with
out any model whatever. This making
of cameo portraits Is one Of the most
steady sources of revenue in the business.
/ They are made of various sizes and the
likeness is very striking. The price
varies from $50 to $500 each, The aver
age time of cutting one is abont 12o
hours

The chairman of No. l01 experienced a
sensation yesterday quite different from
those with which the strike familiarized
him, and yet due TO the publicity which
the strike has given him. He received a
letter from a lady residing at Twenty
seventh street aud Eighth avenue South
Brooklyn, N. Y, saying that she had seen
his name very frequently of late in con
nection with the great strike, and inquir-
ing whether he was her brother, Martin
Irons, whom she had not seen for thirty
years. If so--the latter went ON TO say
he was entitled TO his share of some mon
ely left her by their mother, who had died
several years ago. At the time of the
death of the mother Mr., Irons where
abouts were unknown, and his sister, APP
pearing to the sole heiress, got the money
and invested it in the house in which she
now resides Mr.. Irons was, of course,
greatly astonished TO receive the letter,
He said its surmise as to his identity was
correct, and he is now or shortly will be
richer by $1,000 or $4,000 than when the
strike began.

CurrHnts in the Garden.

Cuttings from currants will do much
better in the fall than in the spring. They
should be planted as soon as the leaves
fall off, They will make durable roots
four to six inches long the same fall,
while the buds remain dormant They
will make double the growth the next sea
son if set in the fall shat they will if not
set in till spring They should be set in
ground that will not heave them out by
the effects of frost, and should be covered
just before winter sets in with coarse lit
ter. Remove the covering early in the
spring, and examine the cuttings to see if
any of them have heaved, and if so, press
them down again, Should they heave up
an inch or more, if well pressed down
they will start and make better growth
than cuttings in the spring. In either
case, however, the cuttings should always
be made in the fall.

Abortion in Cows.
L. S. DAirymau.

! have written quite a number of arti-
Giles upon this most trying misfortune TO
breeders and dairymen. There are many
theories and opinions as to the cause and
nature of abortion. Some of the reasons
given in some of our stock papers are
little better than ridiculous many; of
them are fraught with danger and should
be received with great caution IF receiv-
ed at any. Abortion, despite our individ-
ual and collective experience, Is still una
bated, if not fatally on the increase. Is
any one to blame for this. / feel quite
sure many persons are much to blame for
the condition of many aborting COWS, l
don't wish TO be too severe upon the own
ers of COWS, but positive experience war
rants me i'll declaring that abortion is
largely due to the criminal neglect of
of these owners. This | am satisfied of
from careful, persistent observation. l
have had professional supervision of
many of the most extensive and valuable
herds of Jerseys in the United States,
and have had sad experience in many
cases of abortion. Many cases do l re-
call to mind as the result of gross care
Iessness, cruelty and neglect
The first great cause of abortion in
COWS, is hereditary pre-disposition; next
in order anything that seriously interferes
with the comfort of the COW, especially if
long continued; any annoyance may be
the direct cause of abortion; stanchions,
| am quite sure, have been the positive
cause of abortion in many instances. with
IN my own knowledge. These stanchions
when too short. are an especial discom-
fort to the COWS imprisoned in them and
should be looked 70. The barking Of
cur or other dogs, often causes abortion;
hard handling in milking is a proven
cause of abortion. especially when accom-
panied by the severe jerking which so
many sO-called good mixers indulge in;
foul, offensive matters lying around, as is
quite often common, Is dangerous and Is
quite often the only cause in many cases
Of abortion; allowing a bull to run in the
same pasture, is a most frightful source
Of abortion; no bull should be allowed
within even the sound of his voice. TO the
COWS he may head. The placenta has
been the cause of many abOrtions, by be
ing placed where the cows or anything
else, can smell it. II should always be
buried out of sight and smell. An abor-
ting COW should be quarantined from all
the rest Sympathetic abortions are
common. a COW in heat should not be
allowed in company Of cows in calf.
Everything should be done consistent
with the common laws of physiology, in
the general management Of herd Of
hOvinee. If we would succeed.
