Alexander Hasmyth, the landscape

dents. TO his mind, the fact that q
thing could not be done in the ordin-
ary manner was no reason why It
should be given up. His son relates
the following interesting example Of
his ingenuity.
The Duke of Athol, says he, consulted
MIN as to some improvements which
ne desired to make in his woodland
scenery near Dunkeld. Among other
things. certain rocky. crag needed to
be planted with trees, to relieve the
grim barrenness of its appearance.
The question was how to do it, as it
was Impossible for any man to climb
the crag, in order to set seed or
plants in the cleft of the rocks.
A happy idea struck my father. Hav-
ing observed in front of the castle q
pair of small cannOns, used for firing
salutes, on great days, it occurred to
him to turn them to account. A tin
smith in the village was ordered to
make number Of canisters with COW
ers. The cannisters were filed with all
sorts of suitable tree seeds. The can
mons were loaded and the csll,is.,,rs

fiourishing in all the recesses of the

The first thing Mrs. Henry Ward
Beecher ever wrote for publication
was in loo9, when she was lying on
a sick bed, and to pass away the time
she wrote what afterwards grew into
the story From Dawn to Daylight" +"
These were sketches Of Western life,
many of them draw from her own ex-
perience. The sheets Of paper upon
which the story was written were
thrown into bureau drawer without
any thought on the part Of the writer
Of ever making use Of them, blt one
day her daughter, about twelve years
old, came across the manuscript and
became so much interested In the story
that she begged her mother to have it
published. "And for that, my first pub
lication, l received $780," she added.
This was the beginning Of her literary
labors, which have been kept up more
or less ever since. For a time Mrs.
Beecher contributed a weekly letter
on household topics to newspaper
syndicate; she edited department in
the Domestic Monthly" for several
years; recently she has written for the
Ladies' Home Journal" and at one
time she edited department in Go

Climate and Breed.

To climatic influences we owe large
ly the widely different breeds Of cattle.
In the beginning, man has no con-
scious influence in establishing breeds.
He merely selected and retained the
improvements that. nature had begun,
and this natural improvement was in
every case due to more completed
adaptation to surrounding environ
ments. Hence, as environments DIFF
fered, different breeds arose from cat
tie that were originally practically
Identical. In Engand, until a short
time ago, each Of the forty counties
had Its local breed, distinctly marked
and locally esteemed for some supposed
superiority. Under the operation Of
these natural laws there have been de-
velOped at least three distinct types
of Shorthorns in Great Britain. viz. !:
The Bates, the Booth and the Scotch
types; besides general class that can
not be placed under any distinct type.
The question Of introducing Jerseys
into other parts Of the world was SIM
ply one of acclimatization. If they be
be made to live and do well they would
live as Jerseys and do as well as Jer-
seys do ON that isand. For seventy
five years past this lu ,stion has been
put to the test, and It has been an
swered in the affirmative in every part
Of the globe.-Jersey Bulletin.

Where Potatoes Can't be Boiled.

When the barometer stands at thirty
inches sea level, showing an atmos-
rheric pressure Of fifteen pounds to
the square inch, the boiling point Of
water is PIP degrees Fahrenheit. When
part of this pressure is removed by as
cending to higher levels, water will
boil before coming to a heat of 212
degrees, or if descent is made into
a valley below the level Of the sea
the boiling point will rise accordingly.
Thus it is plain to see that in highly
elevated regions, where there is less
atmospheric pressure upon the water,
the boiling point is much lower than at
sea level-in other words, it will boil
before it Is sufficiently heated to cook
potatoes, beans, etc. An elevation Of
but $40 feet makes a diminutiOn Of one
degree in the boiling point. At the City
Of Mexico, where the elevation is 7,471
feet above sea level, water will boil
at 1913 IL degrees; at Quito, which is
9,541 feet, the boiling point is reached
at 1914 degrees. It will be seen, there
fore, that boiling water is not always
equally hot. At the places mentioned
and in several localities in our own
country, many articles Of food cannot
be cooked at all by boiling; or, If they
can, it takes several hours, where q
few minutes should suffice.-St. Louis
Republic.

creases. and it soon becomes neces-

gully worse now than formerly is the

Growing Mushrooms TN Pots.

~EO"luB N1uShrOouAS IN 1OSSs
Mr. Thompson, the well-known horti-
culturist. has the following suggestions
as to the way in which he utilizes the
space in his hothOuse in raising mush-
rooms. He says:
I place ten-inch board on it's edge
on the ground floor close to the hot wa
ter pipes, and outside of, the supports
another ten-inch board, with cross
pieces nailed every ten feet to keep
them in place; the space in my houses
is fourteen inches between those two
boards. I fill ten-inch pots with man.
ure, prepared for beds, to within one
and one-half inches of the top. place
the pots in the space between the ten
inch boards and pack them closely with
spahagnum moss, and in each pot I
make q hole two inches deep and place
q small handful Of spawn; the pots are
then filled to the rim with finely sifted
loan. and covered all over with light
covering of excelsior. This and the
sphagnum moss between the pots are
occasionally damped with tepid water;
in about five weeks mushrooms will ap-
pear. Watering will be as for the beds.
I find the mushrooms from pots in all
ways as fine as those from beds, nor do
I find any difficulty in producing fine
mushrooms close by the hot water
pipes.
