why Fruits Change Color.

Here are the best opinions of leading
scientists as to why most fruits undergo
changes during the ripening process: 1t is
known that as fruits come to maturity
there is a process of absorption of material
from the trees sap, as well as a cell growth
within the fruit itself. That the ABSORB
ton of oxygen and the giving off of car
bonic acid gas is an action strictly analo-
gous to the respiration of animals. That
there is a transformation of vegetable fiber
into sugar and water. The rapidity and
perfection of this process depends princi
pally upon the amount of sunshine to
which the fruit is exposed while it is going
on The outer membranes of most all
fruits assume positive color when the
ripening change is coming on, but why one
plum is green and another blue, one apple
red and another yellow, the most rigid re-
search has failed to discover, but that the
primary changes in the color of each par
ticular species of fruit is due to the reasons
given above there is not the least doubt
When fruit has turned all it's fiber to
sugar and water the absorption of oxygen
must be checked by cutting off light and
air; or, if allowed to continue, the next
chemical change involves the decomposi
ton of the sugar, and the fruit becomes
strotten" The action Of frost upon fruit
is to crystalline all of its contained mois
ture. If this can again be converted into
sugar by very gradual process the sugar
of the fruit is found to be uninjured.- St
Louis Republic.

This tank and the models which are used
are by no means toys, but are of valuable
assistance as mathematical methods of
scientifically determining facts Of the ut

The models employed are made from
paraffine wax, and by an ingenious ma

any desired scale. This mechanism is
largely automatic and self registering, and

due to the experiments WHICH are carried

why Manila Is One Day Behind.

Manila is one of the most important
ports in the Philippine islands, but, strange
to say, is one day behind all other places
of it's size in the world This curious fact
is accounted for in this way: Although the
Philippine islands lie near the Asiatic
coast, they were discovered by Spaniards
who sailed from America. When they
crossed the magic line where Sunday sud
denly changes into Monday, these fiery
dons of proud Castilian ancestors did not
revise their calendar. When told of this
years later-when informed that their
mode of reckoning time was not up to
modern notions, they only said that that
was so much the worse for modern notions
Anyhow. the fact remains that these Phil
ippine islanders keep plodding along one
day behind all the rest of the world, which
reckons time by new style.-St. Louis Re

When the day of the trial came on the old

sat behind the attorney, and rapidly ran
his eyes over the jury. When he reached
the last man he sprang to his feet and, re-
CARELESS of court etiquette and decorum,
called out, "gudge, every man on that jury
owes me bill. Dismiss the case quick or

acquainted with it that it is only fit to
be grown in the orchard or under
partial shade, although no other grass
will do better under such circumstan-
ces, except perhaps wood meadow
grass yet, like all other strong gfpw--
ing grasses, it will, of course produce
heavier crops if exposed to the bright,
open sunshine. We have never used
orchard grass without the mixture of
clover or other grasses, as we have al
ways believed in the great importance
of having variety of grasses either
for hay or pasture it is well to have
never less than five and sometimes as
many as ten varieties of grasses to-
gether with due proportion of mixed
clovers. This mixture should be
sown after wheat in the fall or wheat
or oats in the spring, or it can be
sown alone if so desired, one-half of
the bulk in orchard grass, while the
other half is made up of other grasses.
We vary the quantity in this mixture
according to the requiremeatg--aSssAs
soil, the quantity needed for ye'od "
land being about four busSer

der if sown in the fall in Il AsSEza.asIs'
ten pounds of mixed clovers. Care
should be taken to brush-harrow after
sowing, and last but not least, to
carefully roll, as we lay great stress
on the fact that all seeds can not be
too firmly embedded in the soil after
sowing"

Deepest Hole In the World.

One of the most important scien-
tific explorations into the depths of
the earth ever undertaken will be car
ried out near Wheeling, w. Va, under
the joint auspices of the United States
Government and the city of Wheeling.
Some months ago the Wheeling De-
velopment Company began drilling a
well near the city in search of oil or
gas. 1t was determined to bore as far
as possible. The hole has already
reached the depth of 1890 feet, within
200 feet of the deepest well in the
world. In this distance dozen of
thick veins of coal have been passed ;
oil and gas both struck, but not in
paying quantities, and gold quartz,
iron and many other minerals found.
The hole is eight inches in diameter,
and the largest in diameter of any
deep well in the world. The Govern
ment will take up the work under the
direction of two expert officers of the
Geological Survey and drill into the
earth as far as human skill can pene-
trate. The idea is to take the tenn
perature and magnetic conditions as
far as possible, and by means of an in
strument constructed for the purpose
complete record of the progress and
all discoveries made will be kept

MAKING TAPE MEAsURrs.-rNe

MAKING TAPE MEAsUREs.-'rhes,
handy strips Of linen or col
ton, of varying lengths, are indispen
sable in every household. Brooklyn
for forty-one years has been manufac'
turing these useful little things and
shipping them all over the country.
There is only one other mandatory
of the kind in the United States, and
that is in Cleveland, Ohio. Besides
the ordinary tape measure, the con-
Germ in this city makes the steel meas
ure of 100 feet and upward, used by
surveyors and railroad men. The
cotton and linen used in the manufac-
ture are imported from England and
the steel from France.
The first two are paintedwith pc
culiar kind of paint, and' have the
feet and inches printed on them from
plates, much in the same manner as a
newspaper is printed. With regard
to the surveyors measure the figures
are etched on by an acid solution.
The measures come in different
lengths, and rolled up in cases or not,
as the purchaser chooses. In deter
mining the depths of wells, etc., the
measure used is made of a metal re-
iron, and is marked off
every 100 feet Brooklyn Eagle.
SILvERING IRoN.-A new Austrian
patented process for silvering articles,
of iron is thus described: The article
is first plunged in a pickle of hot dilute
hydrochloric acid, whence it is re-
moved to a solution of mercury |
nitrate, and connected with the zinc |
pole of Rrnsen element, gas carbon
or plantinu,1 serving as the other
pole. 1t is rapidly coverd with layer
Of quicksilver, when it is removed,
washed, and transferred to silver
bath and silvered. BY heating to 800
degrees G. (572 degrees F. the mer-
curry is driven off, and the silver
firmly fixed on the iron. To save
silver the wire can be first covered |
with layer of tin; one part of cream
of tartar is dissolved in eight parts of
boiling water, and one or more anodes
are joined with the carbon pole of a
Bunsen element. The zinc pole COM
municates with a well-cleaned piece
of copper, and the batter is made to
act till enough tin has deposited on
the copper, when this is taken out and
the ironware put in its place. The
wire thus covered with Nn chemically
pure, and silvered, is muN cheaper
than any other silvered me, WfN9sHna
