day nights injured the fruit to a
very large extent, and the proba-
bilities are that peaches are nearly
all killed. Early flowers in bloom
were cut down also. The grapes

We would not throw one straw
in the way OF GalIipolis prosperity,
but when we consider the location
of the town, four miles below the
mouth of the Great Kanawha, we
don't think it tho proper place for
the location of the U. S. Marine
Hospital. Point Pleasant is the
only eligible point for its location,
and the reasons for this are many.
Here we have the government i'm
provement of the Kanawha, and
when completed, must of necessity
be the headquarters of the river
men who are employed in the tow
boat business. Here all tows must
be made up, and hero must be the
base of supplies for all boats plying
the Kanawha and Ohio rivers. Our
member of Congress should look
into this mater and use his influ-
enee to locate the contemplated
Marine Hospital at Point Pleasant.

To those who have potatoes stored 10
pits, the writer's advice is, leave them D.
late as is safe. In pits there is little SD NIX
age though left till late in the spr'ng'
Stored in cellars, potatoes are not so crisp
and hard Ms those in pits, and sprouts start
sooner causing rapid shflnkage. For seed,
although many prefer keeping potatoes in
a cellar, it is true that seed taken directly
from a pit produce more vigorous
growth, although they may not come up
so soon after planting. All sprouting POI
tstoes In store enieebles the growth to that
extent after planting. The shrinkage OF an
all winter store in cellar is probably not
less than ten per cent. and that OF pitted
potatoes IL next TO nothing.

In reply TO the question, which pays
better, to make milk into butter or cheese
Peter Collier, director Of the New York
experiment station at Geneva, answers sub
s,antially that it depends on conditions
As rule, in winter butter pays better,
since the amount OF fresh butter is far be
low the demand, and prices are compare
lively high. 10 summer. cheeee making
paws better since the price OF butter is
then the lowest, and in the form OF cheese
the product can be held aid stored until
prices are high. As regards the loss OF fat
in cheese making and butter making, We
may put the average cheese factory loss of
fat at not less than about one quarter OF q
pound Of fat for one hundred pounds Of
milk. In the case OF butter making from
the same milk, by ordinary processes of
Dreaming by gravity setting. OF churnipg
etc. az in the case of the average farmer,
the loss would be not far from half q
pound Of fat for every hundred pounds OF
milk, BY using centrifugal machine for
separating the cream. and by skillful han
ding in subsequent operations. the loss OF
at can be reduced to one fifth ola pound
Of fat for one hundred pounds Of milk con
taining 8 per cent. Of butter fat. As to
weld OF cheese and butter, the average
weld OF cheese on the above supposition
would be about ten pounds OF cheese for
one hundred pounds Of milk. Ia the case
OF butter, as made by the average farmer,
the amount OF butter made from 100
pounds Of milk would be about 3 D pounds
In the best creameries the yield would be
not less than 3 8 pounds per hundred
pounds Of milk. To realize % cents q
pound on each yound Of milk fat. the
cheese would have to sell ct s 10 cents per
pound; the butter for % to % 5, according
to the amount lost 10 making.

labor under the peculiar inconven>
fence of having right eye Of normal
power and short-sighted left eye, says
James Shaw in Nature, The numerals
ON the face Of clock fye-eighths of an
inch high are visible to the right eye at
tweye feet distant, hut in order to dis
Germ them as clearly with my left eye
require to bring that organ of vision as
near to the figures as eight inches. On
looking at my gold chain banging on
my breast in daylight and with both
eyes, the chain, colored yellow and to-
ward the left, is perceived by the right
eye, while u steely-blue chain, another,
yet the same, is perceived about an inch
to the right and o little higher up. By
artificial Light the same phonemenon
presents itself, but the difference of
color is not SO apparent; the yellow to
the right Is only DINNER. Again, when
n page, of Nature is being read with the
short-sighted eye there appears. about
an inch to the left, part of the same col
lllnn. small, and the black, under arti-
Headlight, like weak purple. The right
hand side OF this ghost-like column is
lost to the right eye, being commingled
with the larger, darker. letters seen by
the short-sighted left, which cover it
like the more recent writing on q palimp-
scst, Middle life was reached before
the, discovery was made. These expe-
riences must be gone through with in
sent, for objects generally being per-
ceived altogether with the right eye, all
that the left seems good for is to supply
IL lietlc mort, light The perception of
the, difference of color is as good with
the. one eye as with the other, and the
skort-sighted eye can read smaller type.
AS the inferior animals, so far as
know, have no habit of peeplng or look
ing with one eye shut and the other
opened, it occurred to me that this abil-
ity might be limited one. tried the
experiment. with school, children, and to
my surprise found that n few werc
quite unable to keep one eye shut and
the other open at the same time, aad u
few did it with an effort, making in Ill
about fourth of the number. Adults
were likewise under similar limits, but
20 less extent. This may be the
reason why the discovery of inequality
of vision, as Sir John, Herschel remarks,
is often made late in life. Indeed, he
mentions an elderly person who made
The uup!casanb discovery that he was
altogether blind of an eye.
