What the Skyls.

The sky is the clear atmosphere, unob-
scured by clouds. Its beautiful blue
color is supposed to be due TO the watery
vapor thu is dissolved in it. There is
almost mere or less of this vapor in the
atmosphere, the amount depending on
the temperature of the air. At seventy
seven degrees 1000 cubic feet of air
holds in solution 1000 grains or over two
ounces of water. This water has natur-
ally blue color, inherent in it, and the
color is caused by the effect of light.
But there is a remarkable fact which ex-
plains why the color is so intense, and
this is that it is due to the presence in
the air, and the vapor as well, of unac-
countable small particles of dust floating
in the atmosphere. This dust is made
up of almost every substance in exist
ence, organic and inorganic, which in its
fine state of division from various causes
has been carried into the air and diffused
through it by the winds. Some of this
matter is the product Of the decay of or.
ganic matter, some comes from volcanoes
during eruptions, and some of it is mete-
critic, and produced by the decomposi-
ton Of meteors in the atmosphere, when
they are consumed as we see them as
shooting stars, so called. 1t is known
that this atmospheric dust also exists in
water, and the refraction of the light
from these innumerable particles either
in water or air, or in this case here ex-
planned in both of these, greatly intensi-
fies the blue color. 1t is not ozone in
the air that produced this color, for this
is nothing more than mere form of
oxygen dissolved in the air, and so rare
in its condition that light has no effect
upon it, but simply this atmospheric
moisture and the dust that is contained
in it and in the air. 1t is we'll known
that the most intensely blue sky is seen
when the air is moist and has the most
water dissolved in it, as when rain is
about to fall or just after it has fallen,
when the clearing sky is so deeply blue.

The Lake Commerce Of chlcsnn.

Chicago's shipping is second only TO
that of New York; from it the cereals Of
the Northwestern States are transported
through Lakes Huron and Erie to Buff
falo, whence they are forwarded to New
York by rail or by the Erie Canal; grain
intended for Montreal may be carried
over the lakes and down the St. Law.
renee without once breaking bulk; and
it is contemplated even to run steamers
direct to England.
Some idea OF its lake traffic may be
formed from the statement that the az
gregate entrances and clearances in 1890,
for the great lakes, numbered So, $50, of
which 21,05l, measuring 10,2ss, 6ss
tons, were at that port. The correspond
ing aggregate for New York is Is, 2s3,
and for the entire seaboard OF the United

The FERTILITY Of Broom Corn.

II is estimated that an acre of land in
broom corn will make 1900 pounds at
each of the two cuttings per annum, be-
sides thirty BUSHES of seed and four tons
of hay. Two good workings will make
the crop, thin it out, leaving from three
TO four stalks in the hill, aud requiring
no other cultivation. The first cutting
should take place about July 10 and the
second about November l. The seed is
fine for feeding purposes for any kind of
stock, and the hay superior to prairie
hay. There are parties willing to guar
antee the purchase Of 500 tons of broom
corr-will enter into bond if necessary
delivered at depot, agreeing to pay
$50 per ton cash, which insures as ready
sale as cotton.
Five hundred acres will produce that
amount, one ton per acre, and the ex-
pense Of preparation fer market is much
less than cotton, aud if cur ed well and
handled well it classes No. /. The seed
can be procured for 81 per oushel, and
one bushel will plant six acres. In view
OF the fact that the price of cotton is
SO low as not to pay for its cultivation,
in casting about for other products for
the farm the cultivation Of broom corn
should come in for a share of the atten-
tion of our farmers, especially as the
broom factories in the State are import
ing their material from st. Louis.-Col-

Mamm 9th Hou,

Some forty years or more ago Thomas
Selby was hotel keeper in Columbia.
Much of the travel over the State was
then done on horseback and a stable was
a necessary attachment to hosiery. In
his stable Selby had number of hogs
to eat up the gram that would otherwise
be wasted. Among the hogs was a
white pig that grew so rapidly that he
determined to see its full development.
The shoat grew to the dimensions OF a
large hog, very fat and almost helpless.
Such was its rapid and enormous
development that not only Mr.. Selby,
but the citizens generally took an inter
est in the burly swine, and hundreds o.
curious people went to see it during is
life of two Or three years.
The hog was put into pen and FED
all it would eat-no small quantity-un.
til the pen became too small, aud was
either driven or wandered into the sta
bic. Here the porker took possession
of "a horse stall, and grew till, when ly.
ing down, it comfortably filed the stall
The impression is it was weighed before
death and that its weight was about
1918 pounds-perhaps something over
that. There are still living witnesses
who often saw the hog and can verify
these Standardization (Mo.) Gazette

Driving Rain Away With Dynamite.

The new science aud art of "rain
making" dees not appear to make much
PROCESS in India, and unfortunately this
is one of those countries where the
owner to procure rain at will would be
particularly valuable. At Bijapur, in
the Bombay Presidency, nearly half a
ton of dynamite has been exploded on
elevated ground; but unhappy all this
disturbance left the district just as dry
as before. A second discharge was then
tried upon fiat topped hill 200 feet in
height; but still not dropof rain. In
Burmah the conditions were considered
more favorable; but it happened that Just
when the Deputy Commissioner and an
and an assistant engineer had got all
ready for tremendous explosion down
came the rain. The experiment, it is
added, was carried on nevertheless,
which, as local wit observed, is very
much as if the American colonel of le-
gendary fame had persisted in firing at
the 'gone coon" after he had come
down. The worstpart of the business is
that in one instance at least an expert
mental dynamite explosion Is strongly
suspected of having actually driven away
a very promising drift of clouds.-Lon-
