Forest Planting.

In the coal regions of PENNSYLVANIA
hearty every piece of available timber
has been cut away to form props for the
nrchways and for various other uses in
connection with coal mining. Nearly
every stick and every piece of plank
used in these regions now all have to be
brought from distance. The Girard
estate has endeavored to solve the pro-
blem by making some small plantations
rs a test. Eight years ago a large num-
ber of larches and Scotch pines were
planted; plow burrows were simply
driven through the underbrush growing
mp where the old forests had been cut
away, and one.year-old Seeding larches
and pines planted. The larches now
average some seventeen or eighteen feet
high and are particularly healthy and
thrifty. There can he no doubt, from
these experiments, that forest planting
in these regions would be an undoubted
success.
II may be noted that the larch was
the most popular of forest trees in the
early planting on the western prairie,
but the leaves were attacked by fun
gus; the timber therefore did not prop
erly mature. It finally fell into dis
favor for forest planting On these early
experiments the larch has suffered much
IN reputation, but it must be remem-
bered that the western prairies furnish
unfavorable conditions for the larch.
1t is mountain tree, one thriving in
comparatively poor soils, and the low
altitude and rich earth of western prai-
ries were entirely foreign to its nature.
The Girard paintings are some l,4O0
or /, 800 feet above the level Of the sea;
these are the conditions of its own home,
and the remarkable healthiness of these
trees shows that they appreciate the po-
sition in which they find themselves

THE FLY EATING PLANT.
A Curious operation of IA Vegetable DO
vourina Animal Life.


One species of tho drosea has its leaves
rounded, while the other has them elon-
gated, but both alike have them reddish
in color and covered with short hairs or
filaments At the end of each of these
hairs there is an enlarged gland which
secretes tiny drop of what appears to
be harmless dew. Harmless. however. the
liquid is not. for to most insects. espe-
cially small flies. the drosea is most
insidiously baited trap. The liquid is in
reality sweet, sticky substance, and if
the very smallest fly does but touch it
ever SO lightly IL sticks there and dies.
The manner in which the plant after
ward actually digests the bodies of the
flies it entraps is interesting in the ex-
treme.
Within n short time of the capture of
a hy-so excessively sensitive are the
glands-all the filaments growing around
the one which has made the capture com
mence to bend inward, covering the
luckless insect until it is securely within
the grasp of the relentless plant. Each
gland then pours out upon the body
digestive liquid, not altogether unlike
the gastric juice of animals, and in the
course of n day or two the fly is com.
pletely digested. the nutritive parts have
been wholly absorbed by the plant and
the filaments have bent back to their
original position, ready to make another
capture upon the first opportunity.
IT, however, the substance caught by
the leaf is of an indigestible nature,
such as grain of sand or piece of
stick blown by the winds on to the
glands. the leaf does not remain closed
more than few hours. The number of
insects thus caught must be very great.
The plants themselves are very abun-
dant in most upland bogs. Each plant
has five or six leaves. and as many rs
thirteen dead flies have been found on a
single leaf.
Curiously enough, Darwin, whose re-
searches into the subject were of most
exhaustive and interesting nature, found
that the leaves on his plants were killed
when he gave them u surfeit of cheese
and raw meat. The excessively sensi-
tive nature of the glands almost sur.
passes conception. Darwin found that
the absorption of only the 1-20, 900, ,0OOth
part of grain of phosphate of ammo
mia or thereabout was sufficient to cause
the flament bearing the gland to bend
toward the center of the leaf af.-Good

A Novel Diving Bell.

Archibald Price, one of the pioneer
settlers of Kanawha valley. West Vir-
ginia. was making maple sugar in a
grove across the river from his house.
when he caught sight of three Indians
skuliing in the vicinity. The var
mints!" he said TO himself. 80 they
mean to pounce ON me when I've two
pals % sup aboard"
He was just starting for some of the
more distant trees. OF course he changed
his purpose on the instant, but he was
quick witted enough to give no sign of
the fact, and for few moments busted
himself about the boiling place. whistling
merrily.
If he set off across the river in his
canoe, the Indians would pursue and
shoot him. He had brother who was
sen diver. From him he had learned
something about diving bells, and he
now took n sudden resolve to make his
kettle serve him in that capacity. He
emptied it, but in such way that an
observer at little distance would have
supposed he was filling it from tub
standing near.
As soon rs it was emptied he lifted it
quickly, and hurried down the river
bank, where he raised it, in an inverted
position, over his head, the rim resting
on his shoulders, and walked into the
water The bank was steep, and the
water was soon up to his shoulders.
Keeping firm hold of the kettle, he
proceeded. The water got deeper and
deeper until it was several feet over the
top of the kettle.
The improvised diving bell answered
its purpose excellently, supplying air for
him to breathe until he emerged on the
home side of the river.
So Mr.. Price saved himself and his
iron kettle from falling into the hands
of the savages, Youths Companion.
