One OF the best evidences that "the
world do move" says the Nashville
American, is found in the photograph
ing of rifle bullets In their course by
means OF the electric spark. The
camera is taken into dark room,
which the bullet is caused to traverse.
As it passes the camera it is made to
interrupt an electric circuit and pro-
duce spark. which iliuminates it
for an instant and enables the impress
sion to be taken. The wave of con-
densation in the air below the bullet
and the rarefaction behind it are wish
bic in the photograph, and can be
studied by experts. thus enabling the
form of the ball or bullet which min

The Women of New York.

In many respects this fair army diff
fered in appearance from the line of
fair, purchasers to be seen in Balt-
more. The New York woman is, |
think, tribe stoutcr and a degree
more gross of figure than the average
Baltimore woman. She has, too, Il
ruddicr complexion, owing am told
to the prevalence of the fad for gym
nastics and love of wines and beer.
Her cheeks are usually rosy, her figure
round, aud her feet large and unshape-
ly. Aud, besides that, the New York
woman has weakness for paint and
powder that is seldom met with else
where. She dresses too, in loud colOrs,
and if you concluded that the half OF
these gaiIy-drcsscd women of the
streets of New York were actresses YOU
would be greatly in error. The stage
is uumerously represented in the
throng and the stage has left its mark
on the street costume OF the Gotham
fashionables But don't fancy that all
OF these fancy colors are worn by stage
celebrities. Indeed. it is "A surprise to
the stage beauties of the other side that
the fashionable women of New York
are so fond OF decking themselves out
with gaudy colorS and diamonds, which

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo, Mar. 10, 1890.
ED. ORANGE JUDD FARMER.-Since writing
my letter of Jan. 81 from Grand Valley many
letters of inquiry have been sent by your read
ers to the Grand junction Board of Trade,
asking whether the statements therein set
forth were reliable. now wish to reiterate
every statement made in my former letter, the
main points being that Grand junction Valley,
Colorado, has an all-year-rourd climate unsur-
passed in the world; that it has no extremes of
heat or cold, no cyclones or billiards., very few
cloudy days, nearly perpetual sunshine; is
especially adapted for those suffering from
pulmonary trouble, and for invalids of all
classes; is one of the finest fruit producing
valleys of the world, and offers grand oppor-
tunities for invalds with small capital to
make an easy and safe competence In raising
fruit; that ten acres Of lana set out in fruit
will yield more net cash per year than the
average 3OO-acre farm of the Western States,
and that too with less than one, tenth of the
capital or labor.
In my last spoke principally of fruit raising.
Now | wish to call attention to the fact that
vegetables Of all kinds yield abuudantly, and
that while the fruit trees are growing, sufficient
vegetables and small fruits can be raised be-
tween the fruit trees to more than pay all eX-
penses of taking care of an orchard. large
Canncry Will be built in Grand junction, ready
for next Summers crop of vegetables, and the
mountain towns of adjacent mining sections
furnish ample markets at good profits. Sweet
potatoes Of fine quality grow abundantly In
the sandy land and sell readily in the ad ioining
towns at from one dollar and fifty cents to two
dollars per Gushel | think that If the people
who contemplate change would pool together
and send out small committees from among
their number 10 lcok over the advantages
offered by this favored locality, itwould speedily
result in turning what is now practically
Gcsert into one of the most famous fruit valleys
of the world. Grand junction Board of Trade
have recently issued a circular that covers
nearly all the points of interest here, and their
secretary will gladly send a free copy to anyone
feeling sufficient interest to write for it.

mer, lis the draft horse. This Ene
OF production never has been and
never will be overdone." This may
be good advice for western farmers,
but it will hardly apply with equal
force to those in the east The pro-

overdone, but it is certain that east

for the price western bred horses
bring in this market. One has only to
attend the auction sales and note the
