Chufas.

A correspondent says that chutas are
the same as the ordinary nut-grass OF
the South Has he ever seen the two
plants? The common nut-grasS IS a
native of the South, we believe. At
all events, it has been growing here
since the time when the memory OF
man runneth not to the contrary. 1t
has been known on the South Atlantic
coast for the past hundred years, cer-
tainly, and has gradually extended, or
been carried, into the interior. III is
rightly feared as one OF the greatest
pests in the shape Of grass that a farm
er can have on his place, as it actually
operates to depreciate the value OF the
land by really taking possession OF 1t.
When it has once taken possession
of a tract of land, we do not believe
that there is sny practical means OF
getting rid of it. The roots ramify In
every direction, and with the small
knots. or nuts, extend very deep Now
cbufas and nut grass, while somewhat
similar in appearance and manner OF
growth, are really very different
things. The nuts are certainly three
or four times as large as those on nut
GRASS. and the roots do not take pos
session of the land or work it any in
Jury. and are easily eradicated when
ever their eradication is desired. We
have planted them considerably, and
have never had any cause for dlssatls-
faction with them. They are indi''
cenous to Spain, and have been
grown in the South for
many years, and we have never
heard before that they were introduced
bv the Department of Agriculture.
They are well known to be very ex-
celent food for the purpose OF tatten-
ING hogs, being so prolific that one
acre is capable of keeping twenty hogs
fat for a month. We do not personal
ly like the fat or flesh made by chufas,
as both are apt to be soft and habby;
but this may be only matter of taste,
and many farmers in the South would
not agree with us in this opinion. In
anv event, even if this be general re-
suit, it may be rectitied by penning the
hogs and feeding them for ten days
on corn. 1t is the custom to
plant the nuts in drills, opened
about two and half feet apart, drop
ping them ten inches apart in the drills.
While growing they are cultivated
regularly, as corn or any other crop

A prominent matchmaker in Rlo

his establishment, which is not only
ingenious, but practically solves the
question of perpetual motion for those
places where the sun shines perPet-
ually. He has an electric bell appa-
ratus in the upper story, and the two
wires from tho battery are furnished
each with thin, fat, horizontal plece
of metal, separated by a distance OF
four or five millimetres one from the
other. Just above the fiat piece OF
metal a bi-cOnveXed lens concentrates
the rays of the sun upon them at
certain moment, noon, for instance
The action of the suns rays heats ana
bands the metal pieces so that they
conc in contact, thus closing the cleo
trio circuit, which rings the bell.
This is not all, however, that Mr. Ma

wind up the clock in his own room at
