BANANA CULTURE.
The Industry Greatly Increased In the Past
Few Years.

The edible banana. IL Is said. Is known
20 seed only in one spot on earth, the
Andaman Islands. However this may
be, IL is universally grown from suck
ers. It's cultivation in the West Indies
has vastly increased during the past
fifteen years, owing 70 the demands OF
the United States for its cheap. whole
some and luscious fruit, About 400 or
500 trees are planted to the acre. and
the plantations are called banana
walks" In former days any available
spot was chosen, usually an abandoned
cane-feld, where the ground was most
easily prepared for the new crop. But
experience and competition have
brought about moro careful methods
Of planting. and the best place for a
banana-walk is now considered a val
ley or hillside with western prospect.
The tree fruits the first year, and the
expense Of cultivation is so small that q
bunch of bananas, delivered at the sea-
coast, need have cost its owner no more
than four or five cents, while IL may
be sold in the winter months for from
twelve to eighteen cents, and in the
spring for four times as much. There
are risks attending banana cultivation,
however. for the thievish negroes often
seriously decrease the value OF a crop,
and it may be entirely swept away in a
single hour by hurricane. AS soon
as the bananas begin to cast shade,
young cocoa plants are set out between
them, as this tree needs protection from
tho sun in it's youth; and when the
bananas cease to be profitable, which is
at the end of three or four years,
almond trees or other fruit trees are
often set in their places, while a new
walk is laid out elsewhere

Weiuht of the Sun.

An astronomer gives us an idea
of the relative weight Of the sun
and earth as follows: Let rs to
start with, weigh the SUI. Sup o.
pose we have a balance gigantic
enough for the purpose, and The
sun is resting on one Of the scales.
Now put the earth in the Op posite
scale. You might as well weigh
your head against one OF the
towers of East river bridge. Pile
hundred thousand cart hs into
the balance and the sun does not
stir. There lies the collussus i'm.
movable. But get together another
hundred thousand and stack them
up in the pan against the sum-
Three hundred thousand worlds
piled up on one side of the balance
and still the sun keeps them up.
1t would take 10000 more, or $780,
600 earths, to move the beam even
agaiOst single sun, and sextll.
lions is the number representing
the weight of the cath in tons-a
mass which is shooting though
space at the rate of eighteen miles
in a second.
