Rice Culture in Brazil.

Two qualities Of rice are planted in
Brazil-one like the Carolina rice as in
the lowlands ground IgUape, and the
other the red highland rice. A spot of
smooth, black, loamy soil, or rich terra
rocha, intermingled with sand, is clear
ed up of every kind of rubbish, and the
rice is planted in holes made with the
hoe, about q foot and g. half apart; the
amount of seed to each hole is about
teaspoonful. 1t is covered with the foot
and pressed. The rice patch ls kept
scrupulously clean. 1t is planted in
the beginning OF the rainy season. The
gathering is made by cutting the stalk
and tying in bundlcs;a small piece of
ground is cleaned and swept, and when
ready the rice is threshed out and carri
ed to the yard of the house, where the
drying is completed.
The process of cleaning is by pound
ing in wooden mortar, with the same
material for o pestle; it is the nightly
task of the servants to pound out en-
ough for the day following. 1t is clean
ed of chaff by means of a sieve (winuow-
ing), This rice is of much better taste
than the rice of Igaupe, but it is smaller
and reddish. 1t is never exported, and
is only sold in small quantities in the
towns and villages. In the cities rice
from Igaupe >s..,ssvs..--~used.
The manner Of cultivation of the low
land rice differs in some particulars. In
the Sierra Abaixo, low rich soil is chosen,
not subject to ordinary overflow, but
during heavy rains, partially under
water. The virgin growth of the land,
though thick, is small, and is cut off
low down to the ground, as convenient
and easy for the force (bill-hook) to
operate well. The seed is planted with
the hoe, if possible, or if not, in holes
made with the curved side of the bill
hook end spoonful, more and less, is
thrown in, covered and stamped. The
distances are twice as great as that of
the other rice. These fields are not cul-
tivated, but only kept clean with the
bill hook and the hoe. When ready the
cleaning, which in both kinds of rice is
from five to six months, the heads are
nipped off with scissors or knife, and
then dried and subsequently thrashed.
Then it is sent to the Central Rice
Mill, where it is readily sold for cash.
The yield is greater than that of the up
land, which rarely exceeds twenty
bushels to the acre. Rice is subject to
no disease. Birds destroy some.
The cultivation of rice could DO carri-
ed on to an immense extent if once
capital could be induced to look into the
cultivation. IL imeS-D Democrat.

The International Date Line.

The international date line is the line
at which dates must be made later, by
one day, when crossing it from east to
west, and earlier, by one day, when
crossing it from west to east. The line
passes just west of Behring's straits,
west of Clarke's or st. Lawrence island,
west of Cores island, thence southwest
erly between the Aleutiau islands and
Asia. Some authorities place it east of
Behring's island. It then passes south
westerly some degrees east of Cape
Lopatka and the group of Kurile islands
thence just east of the Japan islands,
Jesse and Niphon, keeping west of
Guadalpua and Margarete's islands, but
east of BONN, Loo Caoo, and Patchoe
islands, and southeast of Formosa. The
line then passes through Bashee chan
mel, Just north of the Bashee islands. 1t
enters the China sea east of Hong Kong,
then passes south, just west of the
Philippine islands, but keeps east of
Palawan islands. 1t is here that it
reaches its most western point, being
about JIG degrees east longitude. 1t
then takes a southwesterly course, pass
ing through the Scoloo islands, south OF
Mindanao and north of Gililo. Thence
it passes east, nearly parallel to the
equator and just north of it, to point
about 165 degrees, just north of Schauk
island; thence southeasterly, leaving
High island, Gilbert archipelago, Tas
we'll islands, and the De Peyster group
on the northeast; thence past the Navi-
gator or Samoan islands to longitude
about 268 degrees west; thence it turns
south, keeping east of the Friendly,
Tonga, Vasquez, Kirmadee, and Curtis
islands, and west of the Society islands
and Cooks or Harvey's islands; thence
it continues south, bearing little to
some authorities, Chatam islands, thence
to the south pole. Chicago Meas.

New Method Of Making Steel.

A despatch to the Cincinnati COmmer-
ciaI from Springfield, Ohio, says: "Fo1
some time wide-awake steel men have
been aware that John w. Bookwalter,
of this city, has been engaged in perfect
ing and introducing a new process for
the manufacture of steel. From what
could be learned of the process there
were welLgrounded reasons to believe
that extraordinary results could be pro-
duced by it. A series of thorough tests
that have Just been made before practi-
cal steel men and experts from all parts
of the country, leaves no doubt that it
is destined to be wonderful success.
"5teel of all grades, and even wrought
iron of the highest purity and quality,
can be produced from the pig iron in
eight and one-half minutes, and at a cost
even less than by any process hitherto
known. One great feature of the pro-
cess, which will make it of national i'm
port, is that from the extreme fuidity
of the metal and other qualities it can
be run with certainty into castings of
all forms and sizes, producings castings
true to the pattern, remarkably sound
and free from pores aud blubbers, and
possessed of extremely high tensile
and ductility. 1t can therefore
be used for the casting of cannon of any
size and form"

An Indian Garden of Eden.

The early Indian tribes who inhabited
Mt. Desert believed that the Garden of
Eden was situated on that spot, and,
according to their legends, when the
white man gave the name of Eden to
one part of the Island, it was only COM
ing to It's own again. Strange as it may
seem, the primeval father of the Maine
red man was youth with golden hair
and eyes like the blackberry, tall and Of
great beauty. The Eve who came to him
just when his loneliness WAS getting in
supportable first appeared coming
through tho clouds. Her first exclam-
alton at seeing him was the Indian for
"Oh dear"
She at once cut off his golden locks
and began to weave them into strong
cord, growing larger us she proceeded.
At II suggestion from MOnicho, the god
of evil designs, tho man took the cord
from her and bound her with it, when
she ceased growing, but d d not stop
working. The next thing she done was
to bend down n tall, green stalk near
her aud gather from its golden seeds,
which she made into bread, being thus
the discoverer of Indian corn. The
couple, after teaching their children
how to raise and use this grain, wcro
translated to the constellation of the
stars known rs the Sickle, whence they
still watch over their earthly home

SOMETHING like mushroom famine
is experienced in some parts of the
country. 1t is the effect of the cold, wet
summer. The harvest of 1887 was one
of the most prolific character, and tons
of mushrooms were sent to all the large
towns OF the country from different parts
of the provinces. In tho north of Eng
land there was n special abundance
The women and children found ready
means of making little extra money,
and the law was in two or three in
stances invoked in order to teach the
public how wrong is the old fashioned
notion that mushroom growing in
field is anybody's property. This year
the mushroom pickers will not give
much trouble, because there is very lit
tie worth trespassing for. The mush-
rooms we have in the market are scarce,
dear and poor, and there is n marked
dearth i'll tho small odorous variety used
in the manufacture of ketchup. The
failure of the crop of wild mushrooms
will, no doubt, give new impetus to
artificial culture.
