of designs is endless, even though the

our childhood, ignorant Of arithmetical
mysteries, was profoundly sastonished;

by the suns first chances, there now sits

His right name is G. B. Lewis, but he has

he will now be to the end of the
chapter.
He began as printers devil, and while
filling that difficult and thankless Office,
composed few articles all by himself
and set them up in type. From the day
on which his first original work appered,
until now, his progress has been onward
and upward. He now receives $4,000 q
year for his work.

THE idea of having an extra session

shows to the big exposition while

Porpoises are Valuable.

Many persons who have watched the
porpoises sporting in the waters of the
gulf have wondered if those great ugly
looking creatures that seemed disposed
to take such jolly view of life, and
plunge and sport with most pronounced
lack of grace, can be of any service to
man. 1t is claimed that these creatures
are useful in more ways than one; their
hides make fine quality of leather, their
fat good oil, and their flesh, most sa-
worry food.
Not only shoes. but hand satchels,
trunks, pocketbooks, etc., are made
from the porpoise hides, and the New
York Recorder states that it is an open
secret that certain pie-makers of New
York uso the white meat to make their
most succulent, delicious mince pies, and
further that porpoise steaks are furnished,
by several restaurants, to a few favored
customers. The average price OF a good
fat porpoise, so says the Recorder, is, taxi
ing hide, blubber, meat and head oil,
about 5000.
The sportive, ungraceful porpcise will
rise in the estimation of those who have
questioned its usefulness, now that it has
money value.

Farm Exhibit at the Worlds Fair.

Acting Secretary of Agriculture Viii.
lets has sent out from Washington to
correspondents of the department
throughout the country commissions
making them special agents of the de-
partment to visit and report upon the
county fairs held in their vicinity. Their
duty is to collect samples of all the
cereals and agricultural products shown
at those fairs and intended for agricul.
tural exhibit at the Worlds Fair at
Chicago. The correspondents are in
structed to select sample of each of the
two varieties of wheat of which there is
the largest acreage in their county; also a
sample of the wheat which the farmers
regard as most productive. and samples
of any novelty recently introduced. Fur
thermore, they are to collect samples of
all other grains grown in the county and
three typical ears of corn. Accompany
ing each sample of grain they are to send
a statement as to its variety and place of
growth, time of planting aud harvest,
soil and yield per acre. In this way it is
expected that the grain grown in every
county will be shown at the fair by sam
pies and that these samples, together
with their history, will form an exhibit
of the entire Union. 1t is the first time
such plan has ever been adopted, and
the Department of Agriculture believes
that by thus placing the grains of every
section side by side it will furnish com.
petitive test OF excellence. e.-St. Louis Re-

MOrnOns in Mexico.

Very few are aware of the wonderful
progress made by the Mormons who
have, during the past few years, settled
in the northern part of Mexico, princi-
pally in the States of Sonora and Chihu-
ahua. Hundreds of industrious Nor
mons have taken up their residence in
the valley of the Corralitos, above Boca
Grande in the latter State, and the re.
suits thus far attained bear witness to
their untiring energy, and to the mar
vellous fertility of the soil. The Cor
ralitos valley, throughout its length, is
nearly level, sloping merely enough to
effect its perfect drainage. The whole
valley is one vast alluyial deposit, the
rich, dark loan being extremely fertile,
and with an expenditure of even less en-
ergy than that which transformed the
desert above Salt Lake, Utah, into a
garden, the valley of the Corralitos will
quickly become veritabie paradise.
Several colonies of Mormons are dis
tributed throughout the valley; that of
Diaz, established in 1888, is situated on
the second bench, or bottom, at some
wonderfully rich, resembling that of the
States of Illinois and Iowa. Here are
seen neat and comfortable adobe houses,
windmills for raising water-both for
consumption and irrigation well-tilled
barns and corn-cribs, while thriving
vineyards and orchards of the choicest
fruit trees are on every hand. In the
background are well enclosed, cultivated
fields, stretching far out over the land
scape, in most grateful contrast to the
tiresome mesquite and chapperel which
but short time since covered the mesa.
In place of the barren, treeless plains
we now see thousands of acres under
cultivation, hundreds of comfortable
homes and few schoolhouses. History
is in fact repeating itself, and the Nor
mans are repeating at Diaz what they ac-
complished at Salt Lake-transforming
the wilderness into veritable garden

The Subterranean Glover.

This particular kind of clover effects
smooth and close-cropped hillsides, where
the sheep nibble down the grass and
other herbage almost as fast as it springs
up again. Now, clover seeds resemble
their allies of the pea and bean tribe in
being exceedingly rich in starch and
other foodstuffs. Hence, they are much
sought after by the inquiring sheep,
which eat them off whenever found, as
exceptionally nutritious and dainty NOR
sells. Under these circumstances, the
subterranean clover has learned to pro-
duce small heads of bloom, pressed close
to the ground, in which only the outer
flowers are perfect and fertile, while the
inner ones are transformed into tiny
wriggling corkscrews. AS soon as the
fertile flowers have begun to set their
seed, by the kind aid of the bees, the
whole stem bends do wnward, automati-
cally, of its own accord; the little cork
screws then worm their way into the turf
beneath; and the pods ripen and mature
in the actual soil itself, where no prying
eve can poke an inquisitive nose to grub
them up and devour them. Cases like
this point in certain ways to the absolute
highwater mark of vegetable ingenuity;
they go nearest of all in the plantworld
to the similitude of conscious animal in
telhgence. CornhiU Magasine.

surrounding the adobe buildings where
their masters live, or they are built close
to1the wall on the outside. Along the
railroad you often see them made OF dis
carded railroad ties, the ties being set on
end and forming the walls of the hut,
while thatch of cactus or other leaves
makes the roof. If you will remember
the average length of the railroad tie
you will know the height of the Mexican
railroad hut. In the rainy regions OF
Mexico, where the water comes down In
showers every afternoon for several
months of the year, the huts are built
with ridge roofs, and in the valley OF
Mexico and amid the picturesque noun
tains along the line of the Mexican Ma
tional Railroad you see roofs made OF
board and tile. The board roofs are tied
on and held down by means of stones
placed upon them, and the tiles are
fastened with mortar. In few OF these
Indian huts are nails used, and rope
withes take their places.
The cheapest huts of all are those OF
the hot country or of the low lands
along the coast. These are made OF cane
or poles, which are driven into the
