pair of shoes in hundred coming in to

dren being encouraged to walk before
their legs are strong enough TO beIr the
weight OF their 10 lies, AMI if this is
so, the error must be very general. In
making Shoes to order it is usual to run
two or three extra rows Of nails or brads
where the tread is newest, and some
customers ask to have iron protectors
driven in. The best device Of this kind
is q steel wedge drivel into the leather,
which thus cannot wear down any faster

Seed Growth Promoted By Electricity.

DR.. James Leicester, of the Merchant
Venturcrs' Technical School, Bristol,
England, has been studying the growth
OF seeds in what may be described as
electrified earth. The Chemical News
says: A box about three feet long aud
81 feet wide was filled with soil, and
near each end two metal plates, one of
zinc, the other of copper, each about one
square foot in size, were immersed, and
were united outside by copper wire. 1t
is evident that by slow chemical action
on the zinc a current will pass through
the earth toward the copper and return
ing by the outside copper wire will form
about the simplest of simple cells. Vari-
Gus seeds were sown in the earth be-
tween the plates, and in every case it
was found that the seeds grew much
quicker than they did when the plates
were absent. Similar and even more
definite experiments were made with
glass tanks, some with and some without
the metal plates. All of them were filed
with the same earth, and were treated
with the same quantities of water. In
one typical instance the result is thus
stated: SIN the case Of hemp seed, it was
fully an inch above the surface before
there was any sign of it in the ordinary
vessels" The experiments were varied
in several ways, but always with sub
stantially identical results. 1t was found
that if the soil was watered with little
very dilute acetic acid, the growth of the
seeds was much quicker when the metal
plates were present, whereas without
them no difference was noticed. - Scien-

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
FARMING wIra FERTILIZERS.

If a proper rotation is pursued ordin.'
airy farm crops can be grown indefinitely
where only mineral fertilizers, chichyl
phosphate, are applied directly To tho
soil. This rotation includes frequentl
applications of clover as green manure
1t has been tried on land rich in mlnerall
plant food for many years without de-
creasing the crop Ct grain. 1t wouldS
not do for growing corn, potatoes orr
garden vegetables. In all OF these clover
alone is too slow manure, but forl
wheat on land rich in phosphate thel
biennial clover crop has for long periods |
been found sufficient for the require I
ments Of the grain crop.
But for the great majority of farmers
specuations as to what can be done wltht
mineral manures, alone have no practicait
value. They are more expensive than'
the supplies of nitrogen and mineralt
matter that can be made by careful feed-'
Ing of the best stock. But the fact thate
some farmers have found out how tol
manage mainly by using mineral ma
nures is suggestive to all. 1t behoovesi
every farmer to make accurate expert
ments so as to determine the cost of hist
stable manure, and if it cost more than .
mineral fertilizers, to either change his
stock or place more reliance on fertili- /
zers with clover. This last requires for
its best use two years occupation OF the
land, and is, therefore, unsuitcd to To-
calties near cities where land is very
dear, and the interest account makes'an
green manure the most expensive that
can be applied. 1t is chiefly near cities
md large villages that purchased stable
manure Is now extensively used. At a
distance from cities and villages farmers
must rely on the manure they can make
in their own barDyards, supplemented
by commercial fertilizers. American

Fiqhtinq Feul Air.

People accustomed to breathe foul air
will not believe that it is foul. The con.
dition Of mental dulness it prodl ces has
come to seem to them natural. Rufus Il.
Wade, Chief of the Massachusetts, Dis
trct Police, has long been fighting foul
air. DIR. w. French Smith, late OF the
Howard Chemical Laboratory, has de-
vised an apparatus to enable Chief Wade
to convince folks that they are breathin /,
an air unfit to be breathed. The appara-
tus is a chemists balance, in one pan OF
which is put a measured quantity of
finely divided willow charcoal, which alb.
serbs carbOnic acid gas. BY previous
experiment the amount of detection pro-
duced by the absorption OF different
amounts Of gas is ascertained. At the
appropriate point al electric connection
is established which rings a bell. The
whole affair is contained in the usual
glass case. 1t is brought into the room
to be tested, aud the case closed Al
appropriate abs orient removes the mois-
ture of the enclosed air. At the end Of
fifteen minutes tue charcoal will have alb.
sorbed the carbonic acid contained,
thereby increasing in weight. If the
amount reaches the noxiols standard the
detection set up in the balance will be
notified by the ringing of the bell. The
machine amounts to II pretty experiment,
any way, and ought to be of practical
use both in convincing the incredulouI
and convicting the obstinate. New York

GARDENING FOR THE HOUSEHOLD

GARDENING FOR THE HOUSEHOLD.
The amount of vegetables that can be
raised in a garden plot would seem to
depend more upon the care bestowed on
their cultivation than upon the area de-
voted to them. Vegetables can be raised
with more or less success on different
soils, but if the garden is upon naturally
good land it will be greatly in their
favor. Still, by yearly giving proper
attention to the preparation OF the soil,
by understanding where required, and
by mulchiDg with plentiful supply of
manure productive garden can be made
at no great cost. on almost any spot OF
ground. The true value OF the products
when used in the family is rarely known,
but were they bought instead the cost,
if an account were kept, would be sur
prising. The garden should contain a
iudicious selection of varieties aud special
attention should be given to successive
plautings, that there may be generous
supply as long as they are seasOnable and
desirable. In this knowledge of the
habits of plants, as influenced by chan yes
Of temperature, is important. As the
season advances and the weather be-
comes warmer all kinds of vegetables
grow faster, or, as some one has expressed
if. they seem to overtake one another.
Thus while peas planted quite early, at
dates a week apart, will make about the
same number of days difference In the
ripenings of the two paintings, those
made month later, with the same In
terval between them, under more fay-
orable temperature, viii ripen much
closer together. This is often well shown
in the repIauting of missing hills of corn,
lcre the latter planted under the inau-
ence of better climatic conditions make a
rapid and vigorous growth that has no
parallel in the hills of the previous plant
