Tennis In a Nutshell.

Now that lawn tennis is again to the
fore and the courts are being clipped
and rolled and prepared in every
direction, the usual old questions
come up: "Does any one know the
exact dimensions of court?"
"Where has the manual gone we had
last Year,"
"Johnny, run over and ask Mr.. So
and-So if he remembers the sizel' etc.
We therefore advise our readers to
cut out the following paragraph from
the Tribune and put it in some con
,snient pocket-book, assuring him
that the knowledge will not come
amiss.
The court is rs feet long and 2 feet
wide, the net dividing its exact center
the post for which should stand 3
feet outside of the court on either side
The height of the net should be 3 feet
6 inches at the posts and 3 feet in the
middle.
At each end of the court and par
allel with the net and 80 feet from II
are drawn the base lines, the ends o
which are connected with the sid'
lines. Halfway between the side lines
and parallel with them is drawn thu
half-court line, dividing the space OF
each side of the net into two equa
parts, the right and left courts. Oh
each side of the net, at distance o
81 feet from it and parallel with it ar
| drawn the service lines.

AGood Wool and Mutton sheep.

One advantage that Merinos haze
over the Downs is their fine wool and
abundance of oil. which protects them
from the rain and sudden changes OF
temperature. The Downs with their
long, open fleece soon get wet and
chilled in storm, but the wool OF the
Merinos is so oily that the water runs
off more readily. The Merinos are
hustlers and will find good picking
where the Downs would starve. They
will also bear herding in large hocks,
but seventy-fve of Down breed is all
that should be put in one flock. The
Dickinson, or Black-Top American
Merino, are the best that can be found.
They are large. strong and not as
wrinkly as the Spanish Merino. Cross
them with Down ram or Horned
Dorset and tho lambs will grow rap
idly and make splendid early lambs to
dress, thirty seven pounds in about
six weeks. The ewes will shear n
heavy fleece of valuable wool and in
the end will give good carcas for
mutton. Farm and Home.

Why are they called STRAW" ber-
RESP Smart men differ on that. Some
say it is on account OF their hollow,
straw-ike stems. Others think it is
because they have to be covered with
straw or similar protecting material
in winter. The most classical ex-
PLANTATION is that our Anglo-Saxon
forefathers use to raise them and they
gave them this name because the ber-
ries are generally on the ground, that

Big Prospects for Beet Sugar.

The importance of the sugar beet In
dustry can scarcely be calculated. At
present more than half of all the sugar
made in the world is obtained from
beets, and it is said to be fact that
the beet crop governs the price OF the
world and the prospect is the key to
the situation in 1891, when more su-
gar will be wanted for consumption
than in 1890 The total worlds pro-
duct OF sugar for the season OF 1So9-9o
was over 6, 250. 900 tons, of which over
3, $50, 900 tons were from beets and
the remainder from cane. Germany
produced the largest amount OF beet
sugar, and the United States. which
has every facility for becoming an ex-
porter. was an importer OF over l.
325, 900 tons OF sugar.

Not many travellers visit Carrara,
where the finest of marble is constant
Nv being quarried, as it has been for so
many centuries, but, once there, much
NAV be found in the way OF legend and
scenery to occupy the curious mind.
Innumerable stories float about the
place. says writer in Cornhill, con-
corning the existence of hidden treas
ures.
Gold has often been found in the
neighborhood of the town, and not
very long ago a crock fgold coins was
unearthed beneath one of the streets.
A most curious experience, however,
was that OF n quarryman who, IN one
| of his rambles, stumbled upon an old,
deserted quarry, within which, half
buried in grass and brambles, lay an
enormous block OF heavy marble. On
examining it, he found number OF
letters rudely cut, and half-hidden
under a crust of dirt. With some diff
ficulty he managed to spell out the
words. blessed is he who shall turn
me over"
The man at once jumped at the con-
cluslon that he had stumbled upon
hidden treasure, and that his fortune
was made. He rushed home and col
lected some ofhis friends to aid him in
the recovery of the concealed gold.
After some very hard labor they sue
ceeded in turning the hoary giant over.
Another rudc inscription met their
eager eyes.
