CONCERNING LEAVES.
Some Curious Facts Concerning Their Color
and Structure.

Some Curious Facts Concerning Their Color
and Structure.
Attention has been drawn to the fact
that all the world over leaves are Of
green color, but, while the green of
plants and vegetables remains the
same in all latitudes, the colors of ami
mails vary considerably according TO
the region they il habit. It has been
suggested (and partially proven, / be-
lieve) that the green color in leaves is
due to substance called chlorophyll,
which the leaf struc lures absorbs from
the atmosphere. 1t is a well-known fact
that leaves remove from the tower
strata of our atmosphere all the poison
that the breath of man and the lower
animals throw into it; therefore, the
Importance of leaf structure should
not be lightly overlooked. Botanists
of unquestionable ability tell us that
a full-grown tree in a crowded COM
munity is in reality one of natures
most perfect and complex filters,
straining and purifying the air just
as a filter does impure water. This
important filtering of the tree is only
carried on under the stimulus OF sun
light, leaves having but little or no
power of absorption on cloudy days or
at night. What we call growth" in
plants is merely the power of that par
ticular plant to convert to its own uses
the energy of the sun. Another pecu-
liarity Of leaves may be noticed in this
connection: The general arrange
ment of the leaves on limbs and stalks
Of trees and plants secures between
each sufficient space to prevent one leaf
from interfering with another. And,
not only are leaves SO arranged as to
exist independent of each other, but,
in general way, they have taken
upon themselves the forms best adapt
ed to secure the maximum of sunlight
as it is showered upon them in differ
ent latitudes. At the equator, where
the suns rays are vertical, we find
large fiat leaves, like those of the ba-
mana, plantain and the various species
of the cacti Farther north, where
sunlight strikes at an angle, small
leaves and pine needles" are found.
Then, again, note the popularity OF
the Australian gum tree. Instead OF
exposing their broad faces to the sun
the edges only are so turned. Were il
otherwise the sun would rob them o1
all their moisture, it being we'll

Farming u business.

Farming is business, and the man
who would make real success of it
nowadays must be good business
man. He must be an all-round good
business manager. Besides buying and
selling and the employment Of labor
there are the planting. cultivating and
harvesting of crops, the breeding, feed
ing and care of live Stock the use of
machinery and hundred other impor-
tant things which require intelligence,
skill and executive ability of high
order. There are thousand little de-
tails of the business to be carefully
looked after to make the farm do its
best Taking everything into consider
alton, the wonder is that there are not
more failures on the farm than there
are. No business in the city would
long stand under the easy-going man
agement of the average unsuccessful
farmer.-American Farmer.

World,s Fair Corn l1ltchen.

The corn kitchen at the worlds fair
is said to be attracting considerable at
tention, and if the manipulation of the
meal is in the hands of an expert"
this should be the means of disseminat-
ing much useful knowledge as to the
many palatable ways in which this val
uable product can be utilized rs human
food. Our own people need educating
upon the subject as well as foreigners.
Many of us think we know all about
cornmeal and "Johnny cake" when as
a matter of fact there is much still to
be learned in relation to the best
methods to be pursued to attain the
most satisfactory results. Some of our
big milling interests ought to take the
matter up for exhaustive experimental
tion.-Brceders' Gazette.

Coaxing swarms to Remain.


Twenty years ago New York bee
keepers coaxed absconding swarms to
remain by this method, according to the
American Bee journal: We would take
broom handles and wrap rags on the
large end, making roll about ten
inches in length, and about three inches
through the center, tapering off small
er at the ends. The rags we would
saturate with melted beeswax. The
other end of the handle is sharpened SO
as to stick in the ground. We used one
handle for every four hives. Nearly
every swarm that issues will cluster on
some of these prepared sticks The
sticks should be stuck in the ground
about four rods in front of the hives.
The scent of the wax probably has a
good deal to do with the bees clustering
on the rags.

much. They can be kept in less space

ditch that has abrupt sides is not only
expensive to dig but expensive to keep
