Thu l. Inc present mark, and rePresv ats
Saxon arms In Meissen there are many
OF her factories where they manufacture
china, and have marks sim lar to that Of
the Royal Meissen. and can be easily
mistaken for it. Americans wishing to
get he genuine Royal Meissen should be
very careful and look closely at the mark
which j. on the under side OF the article.
Dresden Is the principal market place
for Royal Meissen, and the different
limitations, hut no china is made in Ores
den proper, as is generally supposed.
When this china was first manufactured
they used certain letters for marks; there
are only few pieces left of this marking,
and these are in museum in Dresden.
After these letters they used the mono
gram OF Augustus Rex which lasted from
1909 to 1726, and afterwards a curious
looking mark, but this was too much
work to make and was used only four
years. In 1870 mark WAS used which
looked very much like the present one,
but in 1873 it was slightly changed by
putting dot underneath the crossed
swords and by making the swords little
straighter,
From 1863 to 177i still smaller change
was made by making a small circle
instead of dot, but in 1774 the circle was

Early Bird is the first trotter to enter
the 210 list in 1895.
Gray horses are the longest lived, and
roans come next in order. Creams have
not much staying power, and succumb
quickly in very hot weather.
Some OF the papers say that Early Bird
could have trotted in 200 at Rigby
had he been driven out in his 2.10 mile,
while Allen Lowe, in the Globe, declares
that he didn't appear to be on edge,
which may have been true after all. The

likes, too, and we imagine it wouldn't be
easy to coax him out of notion he once
gets in his head.

WHEN ICE MELTs.

Interesting Scientific Propositions Verb
He'd BY Experiments.
Under the ordinary pressure Of the
atmosphere ice always melts at the
same temperature when the thermome-
ter rises above s3 degrees Fahrenheit,
but if the pressure is increased it no
longer does so. This proposition was
laid down by Prof. J. Thompson. that
an increase of pressure. tending to pre-
vent the formation Of ice and the
qualification of all substances which
expand on freezing. should lower their
melting point, and this was expert
mentally verified by Sir William Thom-
son lord kelvinl, who found that for
every additional 130 atmospheres OF
pressure, the melting point of ice was
lowered by one degree. Prof. Dewar
in his lectures last year on solids and
liquids proved the same thing. On the
other hand. the melting point Of
sulphur or wax is raised ny pressure;
or. in other words, if pressure be ap
piled. these substances require . lower
degree of heat in order to melt them, OF
will melt with less heat. Sea water
freezes at ga degrees Fahrenheit.

1t needs no prophetic vision on the
part of the careful observer to see
plainly that the seat Of the greatest
progress made by the people Of the
United States will be in what is
termed the southern states. This will
be brought about by the subdivisions
of the great plantations Of the south
into small farms where intensive, in
stead Of extensive farming will be the
rule. Intensive farming can be fol-
lowed only in . country where climatic
conditions are such - 70 permit the
raising of fruits and vegetables in the
highest state Of perfection, and IL is
beyond question that the southern
states enjoy this climatic advantage.
