Blood that Tells.


l am president of a street railroad in
San Francisco, where we have had
hundreds of horses. The average life
of our animals was three years. But
one horse stood that hard life nine
years. His service was so exceptional
looked up his record. l hired detec-
tives to trace him from one sale to
another, back to the man and farm that
raised him. | found his sire was a
pedigreed horse; his dam was of good
blood, though not sandard. That ex-
planned the superior usefulness of the
ho Sc to my mind. He had better
bones in subs ance, form and length,
better muscles, better nerves, better
heart, lungs and digestive organs, and he
was worth 500 more on these accounts
than any other horse we bad. Now,
| say that, whether we raise horses for
the pillow or track, blood will tell and
is worth more money. Electioneer
earned 100000 year for me because
he was good horse. The old street
car horse earned three times as much
for us as his fellows because he was a
good horse. Each in his place proved
a great truth, and it is time we all
knew it.-Leldnd Stanford.

A Good Hawk Tran.

Almost every poultry raiser is troubled
with hawks and crows carrying off
more or less of the chicks. Below we
repeat description of device that we
have seen described in several ex-
changes. We have never seen it in use,
hut if it will detoe the hawks it ought to
be on every farm. A short distance
from your poultry yard place in the
ground post fifteen feet high from
the top to the ground. Now get one
of your WORKOUT moving scythes and
drill two bolt holes in it near the heel.
Grind this scythe blade until it contains
no "nicks," and after whetting it see
that it is keen and razor-sharp. Bolt
this blade to the post near the top and
place the sharp edge of the blade up
and give it good slant from the post
to the point of the blade and your trap
is ready for use. A hawk or crow
comes around and lights on the sharp
blade and slides off, minus his toes.

These colleges for the education of the
industrial classes should therefore
stand each on its own foundation as a
separate and Independent institution,
and it is of the greatest Importance to
every interest of honesty and good gov
eminent, of civilization and human
progress, that they should be admins
tered in such way as to make them
effective as far as possible in accom-
plishing the object for which they were
Intended"
All of which, whether it be adjudged
sensible or not, our readers have heard
repeated so many times that we, at
least, are tired of it. Professor Por-
ter's view of what an industrial college
must be, in order to accomplish the re-
suits proposed, or supposed to be in
tended (though Senator Morrill, says
noD by the originators of the plan,
are expressed as follows:
cit would have been entirely posi-
ble-nay, it would not even have been
diflicult-to have organized and con-
Quoted these colleges in such way
that hundreds and thousands of farm
ers' sons throughout the country would
have received the inestimable advan-
tage of higher education in them, where
only scores have been able to do so
now. Nature herself has divided the
year for the farmer into two great Pc
RODS, one of labor, the other of leisure.
And we had only to take advantage of
this period of almost enforced leisure
to give the farmers son time, when he
could 90 nothing else, equal to two
thirds of college year for study, and
still leave him time for labor equal in
value to two-thirds of year for that
purpose: and so that the earnings
of the one period might almost or al
together meet the expenses of the
other. Now, why was not this done :?
Why can we not do it now? We can
do it now; but it may be well to con-
slider some OF the obstacles in the way,
and the nature of the opposition we
shall be likely to meet"
We have not the space to copy Pro-
fessor Porter's answer in full; but it
resolves itself practically into the state
ment that college professors would
think themselves both degraded and
scandalously over-worked in conducting
school on such plan as this. In
short, the professor thinks, as we have
always thought and said, that it was a
fatal error 10 call these industrial Land
Grant Schools " colleges" If they had
simply been designated Industrial
Schools, or Agricultural and Mechani-
cal Schools, and their teachers given no
other title than that of instructors, in
stead of professors, there would not
have been this temptation to divert
them from their proper aim. This has
been amply shown in the only one of
them which has escaped the deadly
brand the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology. Among privately en-
dowed schools the Cooper Institute of
New York is shining and successful
example of how to do it.
Now is it too late to have this mistake
rectfed? What binders that congress
at its next session should make the
change, and at once and forever take
from these schools the fatal misnomer?
The law might be further amended by

THE Iowa Homestead says: " One mis-
take that the breeders make is in be-
ginning with any kind of registered
stock, or that is eligible to registry,
under the impression, common with
many farmers, that one registered ami
NAL is practically as good as another.
The result is that they secure number
of animals of miscellaneous breeding,
often with antagonistic or incompatible
blood lines, and many years are re-
CURED before anything like satisfactory
results can be secured. This could all
be avoided by first mastering to good
degree the laws of heredity as applied
to all breeds, next studying carefully
the breed and type they propose to Sc
lect, and finally, beginning with few
females of choice and similar breeding,
and of great individual merit. In this
way there is the minimum of expense
and risk. The herd will grow fully as
fast as the knowledge and experience
of the breeder"

able declaration Of the end and pur-

rill might oppose this. In fact, honesty
would require him to do so. But If

Dangers In Electric Lighting.

The dangers of electric lighting have been
greatly exaggerated. and it has been dem
monstrated beyond question that where ac-
cidents have occurred, in nearly every case
they have resulted through ignorance, both
on the part of the workmen who have insu-
lated the wires and those to whom the ap-
paratus was entrusted. Nevertheless, there
are dangers, and the shortest way of remedy
ing these is to clearly define them. The
most important of the existing defects is
that relating to fusible connections, as the
innumerable variety of alloys used for fuse
metal is very misleading. Some of these
compositions possess the properties OF good
electrical conductivity and are slow to heat
while others exhibit weakness when heated.
and thus prove ineffective, Another uni
versal danger arises from the want of some
uniform or some more ready method of per-
fecting splices or joints in conductors. Some
workmen are in the habit of making loose
copper unions, leaving the soIidity of the
Joint dependent on solder, which, being a
metallic cement, is liable to be fused BY
possible heavy short circuit occurring on the
line, and thus a loose connection would be
caused. The danger most to be feared is
perhaps the possibility of lightning being
conducted into houses lighted by electricity,
where the current is supplied by aerial
wires. The existence of this danger has
been demonstrated where the house wires
are attached to the gas fixtures, Offering a
ready path for the lightning, which, in
lesping from the charged wires to the gas
pipes, forms an arc, which pierces the pipe.
Where gas is present steady blaze is, of
course, produced, and if the accident occurs
near the ceiling the building may be endan-
9ered.
