These Terrible Statistics.

A mill owner not long ago issued
the order that the girls in his employ
should not wear laced shoes. The
reason he gave was that each ones
boot became united at least five times
a day, and took at least Ave seconds
to retie. When these twenty-five
seconds were multiplied by 30O-the
number OF girls in bis employ-the
loss OF time was, he said, too serious
TO submit to. Another mill owner,
talking over this case, said he had
forbidden visitors because each of his
"hands" turned her heah to look at
them. Computing twenty visitors a
day and two seconds for the heads
turning to each of his 600 employees,
made over six hours daily wasted in
that gesture. Statistics are memorable
things.

THE primary cause of mte-infested
cheese is want OF care, remarks The Far
mers' Review. Cheese in hot weather
should be closely examined every day,
they require to be turned once day to
facilitate the curing proct IS the bandages
and sides are to be rubbed at the time OF
turning in order to burn of or destroy
any eggs OF the fly that may happen to be
Deposited about the cheese. If there
are cracks in the rind, or if the edges of
the bandage do not fit snugly, they should
at once be attended to, since it is at these
points that the fly is most likely to make
a safe deposit of its eggs. The cracks and
checks in cheese should be filled up with
particles of cheese that have been crushed
under a knife to make them mellow and
plastic. When once filled, a strip OF thin
tough paper. oiled and laid over the re-
paired surface, will serve as further pro-
lection of the parts. The cheese in the
cracks soon hardens and forms new rind,
Deep and bad-looking cracks may be re-
paired in this way so as to form new
surface, scarcely to be distinguished from
the sound parts of the cheese, 1t is
great mistake to send cheese that have
deep cracks and broken rinds to market,
for in addition to their liability to be at
tackled by the fly, they have the appear
ance of being imperfect, and are Justly re-
guarded with suspicion. Some diarymen
think that a darkened curing room is best
for CHI ese, and at the same time the best
protection against the fly. | think this is
a mistake; cheese cures with the best
flavor when it is exposed to light and be-
sides, it can be examined more infinitely
from time to time and freed from any dep
relations of the skipper.

Two hundred years ago tobacco grow
ing was such flourishing industry that it
required three successive acts OF Parlia-
ment to crush il out of existence. The
nominal reason for this legislation against
tobacco growing was that it reduced the
revenue arising by customs upon import
ed tobacco The first act prohibited the
planting, setting or sowing of tobacco in
England and Ireland, under penalty of
forty shillings per rod for all ground on
which tobacco was grown. This was in
effectual, and three years larer another
act increased the penalty to ten pounds
sterling per acre. Still the growers per
sisted, and third was passed, requiring
constables and other officers to make dig
ent search, and to pluck up, burn, tear in
pieces, and uttely destroy all tobacco seed,
plant, leaf planted, sowed or growing in
any field. earth or ground And the
constables were faed five shillings rod
for all tobacco they permitted to grow,
That settled it.-HayJoya Times,
