What Lick Observatory May Do.

Remarkable discoveries have been made
at the Lick Observatory in California.
Professor Holden, the director, has Sc.
cured through the big telescope better
! pl0to graphs OF the moon than have been
taken anywhere else, and the work of
photographing goes on every hour wnen
the satellite is visible. By studying these
photographs with maynifying glass and
comparing them any changes taking
place on tue surface of the moon may be
discovered.
The astronomers on Mount Hamilton
have discovered some things that nobody
else ever saw, but they have not deter
mined whether these are new features or
things that are too small to have been
seen through less powerful telescope.
For example, upon the top of one OF the
mountains of the moon the photo rraph
shows luminous white spot that LOOKS
like snow. If that is snow, and if it was
not there before, the presence of an at.
mosphere is indicated. 1t has been be-
lleved that the moon has no atmosphere,
and therefore is uninhabitablc; but if it
should be demonstrated that snow falls
upon the surface of the satellite, the &C.
cepted theory would be upset, and as
tronomers would begin to study the moon
with new and greater interest
Objects upon the moon are detected
by tnelr shadows, and projection or
eminence fifty feet high casts shadow
large enough to be seen through the Lick
telescope. If Professor Holden, study
ing his series of photographs, should dis
cover some day new shadow where
none had been cast before when the
moon was in the same position and under
the same light, he would know that
something had been erected upon the
surface, either part of the crust up
heaved by some internal movement, or a
building put up by living creatures.
The moon appears to be dead desc
late waste of pIayed-out volcanoes and
cooied-cff lava beds, without atmosphere,
and, like Arizona, rather short of water

The Per-Leg Railroad,

Probably the most unique railroad
ever built in this country was the old
Bradford and Foster Brook. 1t con-
nected Bradford, Penn, with Derrick
City, and Was only four miles long, but
| did an immense business during the boz n
days in the oil regions. 1t was built in
1877, and two years later went down in
a smash that killed number of people.
/ The road was appropriately nicknanei
the "Peg-le5' from its peculiar con-
struction, for it was built On Suits, aai
the passel gers entered the cars fro n the
second stories of the stations. Frank
Campbell, the travelling auditor of the
PIttsourg AMI Western, was one of the
officials of the "Pey-leg," and gives the
following interesting account of its con.
struction and nov it was operated:
There was but one main rail, which
was OF iron, but there were two auxiliary
wooden rails. The main rail rested on
strong wooden beams, supported by mas.
slve stancnlons, strongly braced. About
two feet below the top bean were two
wooden rails about eight inches in width,
winch were securely nailed to the sup.
porting stanchions. The wooden rails
were mainly for balancing purposes. The
height of the odd little road wired from
twelve to twenty-five feet, according to
the lay of the land in the valley through
whlcn it WAS built. Without this eleva-
ton the scheme of the inventor would
have been impossible. The cars fitted
on the rail like saddlebays. hanging
down on each side, and were really two.
story cars, the upper portion being used
for passengers and the lower story for
frelynt.
The grotesquc-looking train was head
ed by two engines connected with each
other, one on each side of the main rail,
the two balancing like the cars. W1en
the fireman put on more coal he was ob-
l;ged to descend to the furnace by lad
der. The engines and cars ran on a set
7t central wneeis, which protru led
through the floors into wooden hoods

naln rails were broad. Whenever the

'ails and aided to preserve the equilib.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES,

Draining land is often better than ma
nuriny it.
Peas are generally covered too shallow
when sown.
Put lump of lime in the poultry
drinking vessel.
Ten or twelve hers can be kept on
every farm with profit.
Where variety of poultry is kept on
the farms care must be taken not to win
ter too many.
With turkeys the best breeding stock
is two years old. When young fowls
are used the earliest Matched should be
selected.
A Ventura (Cal.) horticulturist states
that he considers fifteen-yea old Eng
Iish walnut tree, in good health, worth
about $500.
Turkeys are SO restless when confined
that in fattening the time should be made
as short as possible; ten days or two
weeks is ample.
The only way to pick fowls dry and
clean without tearing tnen is to do the
work as soon as they are killed, while
the body is warm
The President OF the Indiana Horti-
cultural Society said a. recent meeting:
sin regard to extreme cultivation OF
strawberries | think that there is
medium. Too higl, cultivation might
not pay, but man should spend from
S25 to $50 on an acre if he expects
success.
Cultivation to produce the best fruit is
as essential to fruit-growing as to grain
gro owing. Who would think of growing
a crop OF corn without cultivation? Yet
it is almost universally the case that the
orchard takes care OF itself. Fowls and
pigs running in an orchard at proper
times is beneficial to the orchard.
The free application Of lime and ashes
to the entire ground and the use of salt
around the trees will assist greatly in
heading off insects and worms that
greatly injure the orchard. Feed the
orcnard-keep the soil mellow aud it will
reward the effort with an abundant
supply Of perfect and healthful fruit.

CUTTING CORN FODDER.

Good corn fodder IS one of the cheap.
est and best rough feeds on the farm. Ir
making the necessary grain the fodder
is grown so that the only item of expense
is the cutting, shocking up and hauling
out. Yet wnen there is considerable
acreage this is quite task. So much SC
tnat In many cases sufficient quantity
cannot be gathered at the right stage to
be of the best quality without hiring ex-
ira help. 10 a considerable extent the
quality or value of feed is largely de.
| termned by the age at which it is cut
aud the manner of curing and storing
away.
As with much other farm work, ma
chinery will not only lessen the labor,
but afford much better opportunity of
getting the work done in good season.
With corn harvester, two men and one
horse Will put from SIX to eight a:res of
corn in the shock, and in this way a
considerable quantity of good feed can
be secured In short time and at COM
paratlvely small cost. Too much fodder
IS allowed to get too ripe before cutting.
So far az is possible it will be best to
begin cutting when the grain begins to
harden we'll.
The size of the shocks should be de-
termined largely by the management to
be given. If, as it is often done, the
fodder is to stand in the field until it is
hauled out and fed to the stock, it will
be best to put up in large shocks, while
If it is to be hauled in and stored under
shelter as soon as it is sufficiently cured,
small shocks are much the best, where
fodder is left standing out there is al
ways more o. less damaged fodder on the
outside of the shocks. The rain, snow.
wind and sun, bleach and evaporate a
good portion of the nutriment in the
stalks so that it is quite an item to lessen
the amount that is exposed to these ele-
mcnts as much as possible, and this is
the advantage in putting up in large
shocks. Sixteen hill square is not too
large. But when it is to be hauled in
under shelter as soon as possible eight |
or ten hills square is large enough.
With good shelter cattle, sheep and |
horses can be kept in good thrifty con-
dition all winter with very little grain
and consequently at low cost if the
fodder is of good quality, or if the fod-
der is cut up fine aud a small quantity of
oil meat and bran added this class of
) oc1 can be kept thrifty during the
in ;er, and much feed that is allowed to
@ t. waste can be used in this way and
hus much grain be saved to feel to fat
ening stock.-St. Louis Republic.

FASHION NOTES,

Paniers will be seen more frequently.
Tne newest color in Paris is CHINA
mon.
The corselet bodice will be worn very
generally.
Ola fashioned brilIiaatine collarestes
are in favor again.
Hats will continue fat, but will re-
strain their ambition within less exDen-
sive brlns.
The widening of the SKIRT at the bottom
does not meaG hoopshirts. At least not
yet awhile.
The hustle will be worn again ard
very generally, bat will be, for the pres
ent, of very modest size.
Those old olive green tints are not 50
passe but that we may find them spriu-
killed. among the designs of the ne vest tea
gowns.
Ruches of green leaves are being intro
duced, and with them a new kind of boa
called the moss boa, Which is manufac-
tured of ribbon ends fringed.
Satin Innings of rich color are the
latest thing for travelling ulsters. The
three-quarter leu 5tn Eton ulster is made
with large buttons and q wide collar.
A new style of short sleeves for even
ing dresses gives then long ends of rio
bons which fall from the shoulder to the
hem of the skirt, both back and front.
The cheviot plaid keeps its place in
metropolitan favor; the most elegant
designs are shown in poplin and silk.
Many plain materials are trimmed rounl
with bands OF caevlot plaid. For wo men
of medium height the plaid is very efec-
tive and gives tall appearance.
The beautiful wasa silks are sold at
sucn surprisingly low prices that they
have in a great degree taken the place OF
zephyr gin CHAINS, etc. Dresses Of these
SILKS are simply nude, WITH b,ttel waist
and slightly gorei skirt, with full back
or with sheath skirt and pointed bod
ice.
A useful gown of pale gray silk is
strewn with violets and leaves and has
for trimming gray surah set in tnree-inch
rows from waist to hem on the left side
breadth and in shorter loops on the
right side. with square bow on the
ends. The front breadth between this
is draped. The back is quite straight.
A new feature in fall dresses is the
jacket waist of silk forming a. part of
the dress. The jacket Is made with
a vest and quite wide at front. It is
sh rt and square cornered like an Elton,
falling open to SHOW q full gathered
front of contrasting color, often the
shade OF the dress. The back is full
and long enough to extend below the
waist line and is belted there by fancy
leathern novelty in the shape Of a SER
pent in dssrskin.

TOPICS OF INTEREST RELATIVE
TO FARM AND GARDEN.
CARE IN MILKING.

So simple an operation as milking a
COW 1t would seem anyone might do
Without admonition, yet from mat
tentlon to It great injury is inflicted
upon the financial results of mauv
diaries.
In the first place, the COW must be
treated kindly. Harsh treatment scar.
ing her by loud talk or any ill treat
ment, IS sure to have its effect upon the
COW IN diminishing the quantity of
mllk' ana such course will not pay. In
the next place, the COW must be thor
oughly MIXED. If MIXED in a hurry
ana not thoroughly MIXED, she will not
give SO much by about quart day as
she would i carefully stripped till all
the milk IS removed from the udder; and
then If the milk is not all removed 1t
tends to dry up the COW. Much injury
IS done to diaries in this way. Few
hired men have interest enou m in the
matter to thoroughly milk the COWS,
and generally doing this work before
the regular days work, AID after the
work is done at night, they do it in l.
hurry, without eaking care to remove
all the milk
At the Mississippi Experiment Station
test was made with five COWS. Work
man A, who was supposed to be a good
mixer, MIXED them for two weeks, and
the milk was weighed each day. Then
another workman, &, who was told the
object of the experiment. MIXED the soroa
COWS two weeks, with the same care and
iced as before. He obtained 244.5
pounds Of milk more than the other man
did, an average of two and one-halt
pounds per day for each COW. A differ
cnce like that would make quite diff
terence In the income from dairy, &C
cording to whether it was Thoroughly
MIXED or observation-disclosures Puugl-
