The American Agriculturist of Spring
field, Mass, has been gathering facts re-
lative to the horse industry and has com
piled report based upon them. The re-
port shows that breeding has been large
ly abandoned during the last year and
a half. Among influences accountable
for the long period of depres sion is the
change to electricity in the street car ser
vice and the rapidly increasing number
of bicycles in use. Depreciation by
reason OF these features amounts in some
States to - or 30 per cent compared with
two years ago so far as the cheaper class
of horses is concerned. Quality has
sharply deteriorated during the last three
years, leaving a surplus of poor horse
flesh While the markets are glutted
with cheap horses, there is a ready out
let for first-class animals at prices about
as high as at tins time of the year in
many years. In many States there is an
absolute scarcity of heavy draft animals
and choice drivers.

A Library Pest.


The bookworm is pest that is rare
ly seen alive. Indeed, some expert
enced book collectors and custodians
Of large libraries, although they never
encounter living worms, frequently
find dead ones. Sometimes books are
found that are eaten through and
through. One instance Is recorded
where a worm had made his way in
almost a straight line through six
large volumes. 1t is a curious fact
that the genuine bookworm has fancy
for old and rare books There Is prob
ably something In the makeup of the
old volumes that pleases him-some-
thing that satisfies his appetite. The
finer and more costly the book the bet
ter the worm appears TO like 1t. But
If this creature keeps at a ScOrnful dis
tance from cheap books, it does not
follow that inexpensive literature is
allowed to flourish mmolested. There
Is a small, fiat bug that looks upon
cheap bindings as dainties, and some
times becomes so numerous that 1t is
a constant annoyance. No one seems
to have quite decided just what 1t is.
and the suggestion Is made that it
may belong 10 the roach family, as this
insect is estravagantly fond Of cheap
findings, which it eats for the paste
that is in them. As the bug cop-
planned OF Is usually found to be filled
with bright oolored powder it is prob
able that their bindings, filed with
paste and glue, are the chosen food Of
the troublesome creature.-New York

The Nocturnal Mi1ratiOn of Birds,

On September &c, 1891, it was the
writer's good fortune to pass the night
with several OrnithOlOgists at the Bar
thOldi statue in observing the GOctur-
nal fight of birds The weather
was most favorable for our purpose.
From the balcony at the base of the
statue we saw the first bird enter the
rays of light thrown out by the torch
$50 feet above us at eight o'clock. Dur
ing the two succeeding hours birds
were constantly heard and many were
seen. At ten o'clock a light rain be-
gan to fall and for three hours it rain
ed intermittently. Almost simulta-
neously there occurred a marked in
crease in the number of birds seen
about the light. and within a few min
utes there were hum = where be-
fore there was one. WI g., the air was
filled with the calls and chirps of the
passing host
The birds presented a singular ap-
pearance. AS they entered the limits
of the divergent rays of light they be
came slightly luminous, but as their
rapid wing-beats brought them into the
glare of the torch they reflected the
full splendor of the light, and resem-
bied enormous frefies or swarms of
huge golden bees.
At eleven o'clock we climbed to the
torch and continued our observations
from the balcony by which it is en-
circled. The scene was impressive be-
yOnd description; we seemed to have
torn aside the veil which shrouds the
mysteries of the night, and in the
searching light reposed the secrets Of
Nature. AS the tiny feathered wan
derers emerged from the surrounding
blackness, appeared for a moment in
the brilliant halo about us, and con-
! tinuing their journey were swallowed
up in the gloom beyond, one marveled
at the power which guided them
thousands of miles through the track
less heavens.-Frank M. Chapman in
Popular Science Monthly.

A LION STORY.

Row it Feels to lie Tn" Wagon with
Lion snifIins nj ,ne's Legs.
Here are two new Eon stories from
IA Nobody in Mashonaland." by G. e.
Finlason. the South African journal
asst:
We came upon man who was com
placently skiIn,ng a lion he had shot
the night before. 1t was a big beast
with terrific teeth, and paws as big
as soup plate. Each claw was
curved dagger. and it was easy to
imagine what such an animal would
do with a man. One blow would
crush in the head like an egg shell.
This man told us that he was asleep
Under his wagon. with a little dog
sleeping on his chest, when he was
awakened by the dog whining in
peculiar way. For a moment he was
unable to realize where he was and
was on the point Of springing up. For
tunately he had the presence of mind
TO smother this natural impulse, and
remained perfectly still The moon
wcS at its last quarter, but the sky
was obscured by the drifting clouds,
so that the light was fitful and poor,
even when the clouds left the moon
clear for second. AS it happened, he
was just in the position to see the lion
which was looking through the wheel
of the cart at the hOrror-striken dog.
which remained on the breast of his
master, shaking with terror. The man
Robinson. | think. was his name, or
R0bblns-kept himself from moving
even an eyelid He did not know for
In
or the dog He dared not throw the
dog off, for fear that the movement
would preciptate an attack. and he
did not like to reach for his rifle ly
ing by his side for the same reason.
Presently the lion moved away from
that particular wheel and started cir
cling round the wagon with the utmost
deAbera tion. and so SOFTLY that the
strained ears of the sweating Robin
son could only just hear it. His posi-
tiOn was of the most unpleasant kind,
for he dared not move, and when the
Ion stopped at the other side, out of
his line of vision, he suffered torture,
sufficient to turn his hair gray. The
lion might at any moment put in his
terrible paw and claw out his supper
by the leg. The suspense became I'M
endurable, until little by little. Robin
son was able to obtain possession of
his rifle and get into some sort Of
position. After circling round for half
an hour the lion stopped by its old
place. but a little to the left of the
wheel. so that RObinSon's legs were
lying within conveniently easy access.
The animal crouched down and was
IN the act of reaching for Robinson,
when that gentleman fired, with fatal
effect.
