Manshury Barley.

This barley was first populaIized by
the agricultural experiment station Of
the state Of Wisconsin and was devel-
oped from a small sample of imported
seed. 1t was found TO be superior to any
other variety at that station and recon-
mended 10 the farmers Of Wisconsin.
From that point it has spread west to
the Dakotas. 1t is very lar " known
in some sections of northe Iowa. The
Iowa Homestead says: 80 far az we
have been able to learn it is superior to
any variety of six rowed barley grown,
and while we do not know what effect
the more southern climates may have
upon it, yet we have no hesitation in
recommending it for trial. 1t does very

PntFS proverbial tramp, he will

that times have changed and the

Coal Gas and the vanishing Forests.

Coal Gas and the Vanishing Forests,
The scientists are devotiug much atten-
ton to the widespread theory that the
earth's atmosphere is becoming seriously
affected by the enormous quantity of coal
that is converted into carbonic acid gas
the natural enemy of human beings.
Along with this poison gas which is being
generated in a thousand smoky eli ties and
through other sources all over the world
comes the steady cutting down of forests
the leaves of which are the natural alb
sorbents of the poisonous gas.
General Wistar, who is said to be the
highest authority in the matter, is SO deeply
interested in the subject that he is making
great efforts to call the attention of the
scientific world to it, and he believes that
the growing bronchial troubles and cpl
denies like the grip, all over the world
have an ultimate connection with it.
How much the present enormous genera.
ton of carbonic acid gas can affect the
whole body of the atmosphere science will
ascertain just as soon as it applies itself to
the problem in earnest.
AT all events the great efforts now being
made to preserve the forests are worthy Of
every encouragement. The planting of
trees in cities, the development of extensive
and well wooded park systems, the plant
ing of large groves of timber in the vicinity
of towns and cities, are all calculated to
assist in the absorption Of the superabun.
dance of carbonic acid gas with which, nc
cording TO the scientists, our atmosphere is
becoming dangerously overcharged.- ANn-

The startling mistake of funeral ser.
mon preached over the wrong person oc-
Cured in this city. The good, kind and
well intentioned reverend doctor made the
distressing error of speaking the last words
over the wife and mother of the family, in
stead of the husband and father, whose
corpse lay in the casket few feet from
him, while the agonized widow, to whose
virtues he was directing the discourse, was
compelled to sit in terrible suspense aud
listen to her own funeral sermon. What
must have intensified her distress and
added to the grim complication of the
situation is the fact that the lady is a
member of the eminent divine's church
The preacher painted the desolation Of the
home without mOthcr and eNtolled the
lady's virtues in a manner that under less
painful circumstances must have been
some satisfaction.
A well known friend of the family finally
summoned up enough courage to arise and
explain in broken and indistinct accents
that the minister should confne his re-
marks to Mr.. and not Mrs. Blank. The min
lister, who was in the midst of his discourse,
misunderstood the Interpolation, and there
fore continued all the more intensely his
panegyric. 1t was no use trying to stop
him now, but afterthe peroration he looked
into the coffin and fell back. He had dis
covered his mistake.-LOs Angeles Express.

the mechanical filtration system, S114, 1856 ST.
TIE report contains tha following conclu-
sions:
For the reason that OF the 200 gallons OF
water or more pei. pita per diem that.are
consumed and wasted, it is probable that not
more than an average of fifty gallons or one
quarter, is used for strictly domestic pur-
poses, and that this portion in its delivery
through the mains cannot lie separated from
the remain Ter. it seems to me beyond doubt
that as long as the present conditions
continue the great expenditures ~ hat
would be required for the first cost of flltra-
tion works for our water supply, and the an
nuai cost of maintenance of these works
would not be jusrifable. and that, for the
present at least, reliance should not be had on
sedimentatioI..
1T is expected that when the works of i'm
provement required for restoring to use the
Daecarlia receiving reservoir shall have been
completed, at the end of the fiscal year, the
time during which the water may be set
tied before it is sent to the city from the dis
tributing reservoir viii be so much increased
(it will be doubled) that the condition OF the
water aS 10 color after high water and fresh
cts IN the Potomac aud its tributaries will be
much improved, and tnat when-tt new res
ervoir near Howard University, which is to
contain 300.000000 gallons OF water. shall
have been finished and brought into use,
there will be but little to be desired in respect
to the quality OF our water supply"
