Grating wax.

There has been a good many inquiries
in regarding how to make grating wax.
There are many variations in the quantity
of the ingredients used by different graft.
ers, the essential requisite being to form
composition that is soft and pliable
enough to be freely applied, and yet not
melt or run in the hot sun. The follow
ing ingredients and directions are given
in Thomas's American Fruit Cu'tgrist: !:
Melt together three parts of resin, three
Of beeswaX and two of tallow. a
cheaper composition, but more liable to
adhere to the hands, is made of four
parts of resin, two of tallow and one of
beeswax. Some grafters use linseed oil
instead of tallow, in equal parts. The
wax may be applied directly to the graft,
Or it may be spread when softened by
sufficient warmth on what is termed
grating paper cut into strips, and
wound around the graft when inserted.

Weight OF a Snowflake.

The lightness of snowial;es is the re-
suit of their surface being so great when
compared with their volume, and Is ac-
counted for in some degree by the large
quantity of air amid their frozen parti-
cles. Snowflakes contain about nine
times as many volumes of air, entan-
gled, so to speak, among their crystals,
as they contain water. Very fine and
lightly deposited snow occupies about
twenty-four times as much space as wa.
ter, and is from ten to twelve times
lighter than an equal bulk of that fluid.

A Cow with a Couch.

A cough may be caused by indigestion,
and this is probably the cause when
otherwise COW appears to be in good
health. Overlooking will cause difficulty
in breathing by adding too much fat to
the heart. Give the COW dose of epson
salts zone pound) dissolved in warm thin
linseed tea, about a quart; and stop
feeding grains for few days. Mash the
bran and add a pound of linseed meal
TO it for few days and gradually return
TO the former feeding. Brewers grains
should not be fed when warm or sour.

A Unique Clock.

A clock recently patented in France
is an imitation Of tambourine, on the
parchment head of which is painted a
circle of flowers, corresponding to the
hour figures of ordinary dials. On OK.
animation two bees, one large and the
other small, are discovered crawling
among the flowers The small bee runs
rapidly from one flower to another, com.
pleting the circle in an hour, while the
large one takes twelve hours to complete
the circuit. the parchment surface is
unbroken, and the bees simply laid upon
it, but two magnets connected with the
cloekwork inside the tambourine move
just under the membrane, aud the in
sects, which are of iron, follow them. -

Feeding Ment to Fowls.

Too much meat, either ground or
fresh, is injurious, as it causes bowel
disease. 1t may be fed three times a
week, if the dried, ground meat be used,
and twice week if fresh butchers meat
is given. one pound of fresh meat,
chopped, is about the proper quantity
for fifteen hens, and half pound of the
ground meat answers for a meal, mixed
with other food, for the same number.
If preferred, the ground meat may be
given twice week and the fresh meat
once. Ground fish is also excellent, and
makes a cheap and good egg food, if
given with ground grain, -Farm and

MIRACULOUS RESTORATION

That dainty lady tripping by,
How light her step, how bright her eye,
How fresh her cheek with hcalthful glow,
Like roses that in Maytimc blow
And yet few weeks have passed away
Since she was fading, day by day.
The doctors skill could naught avail;
Weaker she grew, and thin and pale.

wary, for he stands in more awe of their appliances than of the brute strength of the buffalo. Many . hunter going through the jungles has passed within an easy spring of the tiger lying In wait for him, and be- fore he has gone another two hundred yards the same tiger has again been in position, and yet has wanted the cour- age to spring; even a mAn-eating tiger, if familiar with firearms, might hesitate to spring on & mau that had the courage to confront him. In the jungle he would not attempt 1t; if brought face to face with man he would crouch, and if the man did not turn to flee the tiger would disappear as suddenly as if the earth had swal- lowed him, but in very few minutes he would have secured the desired van- tage ground and made his fatal spring.
 This is not because the tiger is 6 coward, nor because the human eye is capable of dominating him. When it becomes a question of fighting there is no sign of quailing in 6 lion or tiger, but when it is a mere question Of taking their prey, the destructive instinct is purely pleasurable one, the enjoyment of which would be marred if they attacked in front and provoked their prey to battle; and 1t is 8 merciful provision of nature that they show no such tendency.
