1t has been said that horned toads,
when leased, sometimes squirt blood out
of their eyes. This has been proved by
Mr.. O. p. Hay, who. to facilitate the shed-
ding of the skin. tossed one into the water,
when ION the side of the basin there sud-
denly appeared number of spots of red
fluid which resembed blood" This was
microscopically proved TO be blood. A
day or two afterward Mr.. Hay was hold
ing the lizard between his thumb and
middle finger and stroking its horns with
his fore finger. All at once quantity of
blood was thrown out against his fingers
and a portion OF il ran down on the ami
mails neck, and this blood came directly
out OF the animals right eye. This has
been noticed by others. and Mr.. Hay
states that more than twenty years ago
Mr.. A f. Wallace published letter from
a correspondent in California who de-
scribed this creature az squirting from one
OF it's eyes "a jet OF bright red liquid very
much ike blood"

Rice Elevators.

The National Rice Mill Co., Of Ne"
Orleans, has recently erected elevators
! here and at Sunset, this parish, and at
Crowley, Acadia parish, for the handling
of rice in bulk, and has fitted them up
with improved separators,' which re-
move all trash, weeds, blasted and bro
ken rice from the sound grain as il by
magic. Each Of these elevators is fitted
up in the same manner and has the same
capacity. After the trash is removed,
tile rice is conducted automatically into
bins aud emptlcd into cars and shipped
to the Company's large elevator and
mill in New Orleans, where it is cleaned
and barreled up.
Mr.. Alphouoe Levy is the manager of
the elevator hcle, which is lun under
the Intelligent supervision Of Mr. Jos. l..
Cain, with Mr.. t. &. Mills as chief enyi
nccr. Its capacity is fifty sacks al hour,
or 400 sacks for day OF eight hours, but
its capacity could be doubled 10y the adj
diliun of another separator. 1t Is easily
run 10y il 2J-hOrsc power engine. 1T Has
been in operation Tor over two Wecks'
and six or eight carloads Of rice have al
ready been shipped. That at Sunset
was started Oh Thursday, when sue
cesstul ruu OF three hours was made
The concern at Crowley was STATED last
week, when u carload was shipped.
A correspondent of the n. .. Picayunc
writing from Opclousas says:
The establishment of these elevators
in our section marks the beginning of a
now era in tho handling of the rice crop
and one that will prove Of considerable
benefit to all engaged in the industry.
The rice being shipped in bulk, tho cx
pense for sacks is reduced to q very
small item, only small number being
necessary to bring the rice to the ele-
vators, and they can be used repeatedly,
while a surprising quantity Of trash is
removed, leaving the cleaned product
ready for the millcr's stones.
