Cotton Gins.

Some recent improvements in cotton
gins are claimed To insure much great
er economy and efficiency than have
hitherto been attained, the difficulty be-
ing now overcome of obtaining the full
length of the various staples on account
of the machinery in use tearing the lint
before the parting of the entire length
of the fiber from the rollers. AS now
improved, the machine is so constructed
as to allow all changes for meeting
these various lengths in staples to be
made without even having to stop the
operator from his work, whereas the
gin now in use not only necessitates the
stopping of the machine, but requires a
great amount of time in which to effect
the change. Another improvement in
this machine is an appliance in connec-
ton with the inner blade, consisting of
a spring which allows it to give when
the pressure of cotton passing through
the roller Is too severe, thus preventing
the inner and outer blades from coming
in contact with each other. The great
wear of the roller is by this means saved.

Save the Enrests-

Some years ago the government OF
Bavaria sent Il skilled forester To study
the conditions of timber growth in the
United States. While here ne made the
remark, as if speaking of a matter gen
orally known and accepted:
I'm 90 years you Will have TO import
your timber. and as you viii probably
prefer American kinds we shall begin TO
grow them, In order to be ready to send
them TO you at the proper time."
What an instance of scientific fore
thought, and withal what a warning,
Perhaps it is not yet too late to grow
on our own lands the timber we shall
need a generation or two hence, but if
we are to do SO it IS time to take rigor-
Gus steps TO stop reckless forest destruc
ton and to encourage scientific cultiva-
ton.
While our government sells outright
its forest lands for 81. 80 an acre, France
obtains almost exactly the same sum
yearly from each acre of its forest land
by sales of timber. We spend our cap
ital; France makes an income, and
safeguards its capital.
Palissy, the famous French potter.
who was wise in other things as we'll

SOME OLD TIME GAMES.
Many OF the Present Day sports Were Bor-
roWed From the Past.


1t Is curious To note how some of the
games Of the early ages have been hand
cd down To the present time. The game,
tor instance, known To most OF us as
odd and even vas also a favOIite with
the young Egyptian, and many of the
little counters that he used are still
preserved IN the British museum. There
Is also the game OF drafts, which was
played ON a checkered board IN the earli-
est times. The poor children were con
tent with craftsmen and boxes made OF
rough pieces of clay, but the richer ones
usually had beautifully carved irOn
headed craftsmen and boxes.
The young Greeks, too, were well
provided VITA toys and games for their
amusement The toys Were chiefly dolls
made OF baked clay, the arms and legs
being JOinted with string, and there
fore movable. They h1a favorite game
called Chytriand, which has been pre-
served through many ages, and Is now
played by boys of today under the well
known name of puSs in the corner. In
France the game Is called quatre coins,
or four corners. Both in the old game
and IN the modern version FIVE players
are required, one occupying each of the
corners, while the fifth player stands
In the middle. In ancient Greece he
wore an earthen pipkin on his head and
was called pot: in France at the pres
emit day he Is the nigaud, or simpleton,
and by us is called puss.
To guess the number of fingers anoth-
er held MP was also favorite amuse-
ment, and this, too, is frequently play
ed at the present time. So you see how
carefully the character OF the anuse-
ments and the playthings of the very
early ages has been maintained in the
toys and games in use today.-New-
