An Earthquake at Sea,

Two distinct quakings of the earth
and consequent disturbances of the
sea were felt by the schooner Charles
L. Mitchell, three miles southeast Of
Cape Henlopen The Mitchell ar
rived at South street wharf from
Cuba with cargo OF sugar, and Capt.
Frost told the sto1y of his experience.
His vessel was slowly beating her way
up the coast, under easy sail, when
she fell in with the tug Mum and was
taken in tow for Philadelphia The
wind at that time was light from the
northeast, and the atmosphere hazy,
but clear overhead. Capt. Frost had
taken in all but a few light sails and
the vessel was heading north with
both canvas and steam toward her
port Of destination. Suddenly two
terrific reports, like explosions, were
heard; then a rumbling sound as if the
vessel was grinding her bottom out on
a shoal. She trembled and spun
about on keel as if to be lifted bodily
out OF the water by an unseen power.
1t was first thought she was fast on
a, rocky shore, but it was found that
the observations were correct, the
vessel being we'll off shore and in the
deepest water. Those on the tug Mum
thought that one Of the bulk oil car
riers had exploded, but the rumbling
noise and the period OF time through
which it extended after the first explo-
sion proved conclusively that the re-
port was Of a different character,
doubtless from earth quakings. Phil.

Old Servlan Legend

according to an old servian legend
when the nations were about to dis
tribute the world among themselves
they all assembled in the center OF the
universe, divided it into parts, and
drew lots. Some, however, refused to
leave it to chance, preferring to make
their own selection. eve" said the
Latins, "want wisdom 1--WE want
the sea- said the English. The Turks
said: eve want the land z .'Gold and
war for US, said the French. The
Russians said: I'VE prefer the noun
tains and the mines" Well, you
Seryians, and what do you want?'''
5eAhl'' they replied, 1--WE are thinking" /"
and to this day they have not done
thin king yet"

The fowls were then put in smaller
pens and fed the same rations they had
peen getting, but were allowed all
they could eat. After six weeks of
this feeding. there not having been
opportunity before, many Of the hens
8(nllnleteen in ally were killed and dis
sected. The results obtained show
that, although there was enough diff
ference between the rations to affect
notlceably the appearance and general
health OF the fowls during the year.
and to affect the egg yield there was
not enough difference to prevent the
hens with the more nitrogenous ra-
tlon becoming on the average decid-
edly the fatter when fed to excess.

A Good Hay Crop.

The value Of the hay crop increases
every year with the growth of large
cities. and many farms that are not
rich enough for market gardening nor
large enough for raising quantities of
wheat and corn. produce fine hay
crops which will bring in a substantial
profit. The hay crop of the future
will be an important one, and with the
study OF grasses and the curing and
marketing OF good hay, we will prepare
crops that will prove of double value
to the farmer. We must, however,
understand that grass is susceptible of
the highest cultivation Of any crop we
have. and that land thoroughly titled
and fcrtilized is the best adapted to
this crop. On many farms it is far
more profitable to apply manure to
grass than to corn. In the light of
Our past ideas concerning the hay
crop it is difficult to believe this, for
many never thought of manuring the
grass lands to any extent. Grass was
looked upon almost as weeds, and it
would thrive on soil where corn and
wheat would make only sickly
growth.
This may be true but nevertheless
the grass needs thorough manuring
and tllling. Manures should be.ap-
piled freely on newly seeded meadows
and narrowed in thoroughly. If it is
plowed in so that it completely satu-
rates the SOIL the grass roots will be
able to avail themselves of it for years.
A good hay crop can be cut from a
we'll manured field for five successive
years, and no other crop will do this.
Then the crop grows finer on account
OF the exclusion Of the air from the
soil by the turf. s,.....
Winter protection of grass is i'm
portant, and we need more expert
ment in this direction. Too MANY
grass fields are permanently injured
by the frost and cold weather
One thing however, the aftermath
should be left upon the meadows in
the fall and winter, to afford protec-
tlon to the roots. This is the most
effective way yet known to protect the
grass from the cold. This is even SUI
perior to the method often adopted of
spreading manure over the surface so
thlckly as.to act as a sort of protector
1t also returns to the soil great deal
more of fertilizing material than the
money would buy which the aftermath
would sell for if cut. It is true econ
omy in the end. B. Barrett in the
American Cultivator.

III. Evolution OF the sword.

AS men IN early times fought hand to
hand. the Oldest specimens of the sword
are short; in fact, the sword is probably
but an evolution of the club, which at
first made of hard wood was gradually
sharpened on one and then on both sides,
so as to inaict a more deadly wound.
Even today we find some savage races
employing wooden weapons. Wood
gave way to stone, which in turn was
displaced by bronze, iron and finally
steel.
The sword increased in length as men
became more civilized and showed dis
position to fight farther away from each
other, which required more dexterity in
the use of the weapon. Some specimens
we have of swords of the Middle Ages are
almost if not quite as long as the war
riors who welded them. During the
Fifteenth century the science of fencing
was invented, when the sword in the
form of rapier reached the highest
point of development.-Kate Field.

TESTING GRASS AND CLOVER SEED.

It is well to test grass and clover seed,
not only to determine if the vitality OF
the seed is impaired, but also to ascer-
tain if it is adulterated with seeds of
weeds or noxious grasses. Testing should
never be neglected, for it is the seed
not suspected that does the harm. Select
number of seeds large enough to make
the test test-at least one hundred.
Count carefully. Place the seeds between
wooden cloths moistened with tepld
water. The cloths should be boiled be-
fore they are used, and the plate or pan
in which they are laid should be scalded
to avoid the growth of fungi or mould.
For the same reason, only recently boiled
water should be used for moistening the
cloths. At least two cloths should be
laid upon the plate. Then the seed is
distributed over them, and covered with
another cloth. If the reader can cover
the plate with glass he should do so, as
this will retard evaporation and protect
the cloths from floating germs. Under
these conditions and temperature of
seventy to eighty degrees Fahrenheit,
good seed will terminate within ten
days. Seeds of little vitality may germ,
mate after ten days, but they should not
be counted in the test, as they would
probably fail to germinate under field
conditions. Seed should not be used
when more than ten per cent. fails to
terminate, if better seed can be procured
In time for testing and sowing.-Amer-
lean Agriculturist.

How Far a Child Travels.

The limit of mans capacity for speed
and endurance in travel under given con.
ditions is matter of record, but who has
not witnessed the almost ceaseless &C
tivity of child and been led to exclaim,
"I wonder how far that child has
travelled to.day2"
A gentleman in Pittsburg recently at
tempted to answer this query in an in
genious way. He had the floor of his
nursery covered with white muslin. He
then strapped to the ankle of an eighteen
months child "lnarker," consisting of
an ink pad, that made plain mark for
every step taken.
The child was allowed to roam about
and amuse itself as usual, and at night
the marks were counted. There were the
almost incredible number of 64S3 marks,
which, allowing six inches to each step.
make the sum of the days journeyings
3242 feet, or almost three-fourths of a
mile.
The child was probably not above the
average in point of activity and endur-
ance, and its feat was only that of many
another little one whose mother finds it
dropping asleep in her arms at night be-
fore the nightgown can be coaxed over
its head, while the older members of the
family wonder "what makes baby so
cross and tired tonight.
The gentleman next experimental With
his boy of nine years, who was out OF
school and in a community afording
space and attractions for rambling. He
purchased pedometer, an instrument
for measuring distances walked, on the
principle of the cyclometer, used for
measuring the distance Travelled In
buggy or on bycicle. This he managed
to get into the bottom of the boys
pocket, among the marble, nails, twlne,
knives and other bric-a-brac there COT
lected. It's additional weight was not
noticed for few days, and in that time
it did its work.
The first day the instrument registered
nine and one-eighth miles, and the boy
was at the table for every meal. The
second days record was ten and three
seventies miles; the third, rainy day,
seven and one-half; the fourth, nine and
ighth-seventeenths.
The family was astonished at the re-
suit, and thereafter, when any one COM
planned of walk of mile or so, nobody
poo.poohed louder than Bob. One other
noticeable result was that Bob got his
monthly pair of shoes without the usual
lecture on the sin of wearing them out so
fast.-Pittsburg Commercial Gazette.
