Sulphur in the Greenhouse.

Sulphur is of the greatest service in
the greenhouse. 1t is invaluable, ac-
cording TO the Philadelphia Ledger,
against mildews and a great help
against the red spider. The common
way for using it is to mix with an equal
bulk Of air-slaked lime, and with
water, oil or milk mixed to a paste with
which to paint the heating surfaces Of
the house. There are other methods Of
using sulphur, as placing the -four of
sulphur on tin plates on the hcatiu.
pipes, or s%aturating cotton rags with
melted sulphur, letting them dry, then
laying them over the heating surface
and moistening them. Either is unoh
jectiouablc.

Poultry in Winter.

Grecnery, water, grit are the essen.
tials to successful poultry culture IN
winter, says the Agriculturist. Green
rye or grass as long as it can be had,
chopped roots and fresh vegetables,
clover or corn silage will supply green
food; hang a cabbage where the birds
can pick at it. Fresh water is more
necessary in winter and early spring
than in summer, when fowls can help
themselves. Oyster shells make he
best sharp grit, but are expensive in
land, and broken crockcry or glass may
be used instead. Fall-sown rye makes
splendid fresh feed in early spring,
when the birds most need something Of
the kind to insure yirile eggs that will
hatch out vigorous chicks; early sOwn
oats will supply green feed after the
rye is tough until the hens can be turn
ed cut to grass.

PROTECTS USERS OF "ROYAL."
BAKING Powder Company Wins Its
Case in United States Court.

The decision Oh Judge ShOwalter in a
recent ease that came up before him suS-
ltains the claims OF Tie Royal company to
the exclusive use Of the name Royal" as
a trade MARI for its baking powder. The
special importance OF this decision con-
sists in the projection which il assures to
the millions OF consumers OF Royal baking
powder against inferior and unwholesonie
compounds. The excellence OF this article
has caused it to be highly esteemed and
largely used almost the world over. Its high
standard of quality having beeen always
maintained, consumers have come to rely
implicitly upon the ''Royal' brand as the
most wholesome and efficient of any in
l.he market. The cupidity Of other man
'Lfacturers is excited by tins high reputa-
t on and large demand. Very few Of the
hundreds Of baking powders on the mar
lket are safe to use. Ii their makers could
sell them under the name of a well known.
reputable brand, i~ncalculable damage
would be done to the public health by the
deception. The determination OF the
Royal Baking Powder Company to pro-
tect the users of Royal baking powder
against imitatOrS by "a rigid prosecution of
them makes such limitations of its brand
extremely rare.

Pigs for Market,

At what weight should a pig be mar
ketcd: The more Il pig weighs, the
more food must be eaten to support
life. The animal must first be kept
alive. then any surplus of food goes to
make growth. says the Orange County
Farmer. The 3O0-pound pig has half as
much again Of bodily tissue to keep
alive and to nourish as a 2OO-pound an
imal, and there is, consequently, n
smaller proportion of the food left for
inducing growth. There is, therefore,
Il time when the cost Of keeping begins
to exceed the value Of the increase and
profit ceases.

Honor For q Dead Pet.

A Newfoundland dog was buried at
Berkeley, CAL, the other day with all
the solemnity and honor accorded hu-
man beings. TIE funeral took place
from the Tracy residence, at the cor
ner of Francisco and Grant streets,
and the great, shaggy body was fol-
lowed to the grave by nearly score
of mourners who seemed to be sincere
in their emulation of the grief of Mrs.
Tracy.
The dog was favorite in the neigh
borhood. He used to play in the
streets with children, and he had q
manner of greeting friends that won
him warm place in many hearts.
When he died and Mrs. Tracy de-
cided that he should have regular
burial, her friends sent offerings of
flowers, which were heaped upon the
bier in profusion. .-
The services in the house were con-
Quoted in every way BETTING the
dogs reputation and character for
gentleness and honesty. Hymns were
sung and pretty eulogy in which his
many admirable qualities were elabor-
ated upon was read by a friend OF his
mistress.
Then the remains were carried to
newly.made grave back of the barn,
placed in rosewood casket and duly
lowered with as much tenderness as it
q human body was being handled.
The grave was quickly filled with
earth and little mound raised above
it, which was strewn with choice flow
ers of every shade and hue. Mrs.
Tracy will erect hesdstone to mark
the grave, and it will contain an en-
during record of the virtues OF her
pet Newfoundland. San Francisco

The Former Rare Metals.

The supposed rarities of the mineral
kingdom are in q great measure not
seen merely because they are not
sought. and those rare metals which
in the days of our youth were only
preserved in minute tubes as chemical
curiosities, are now to be found as
soon as they are really wanted. IT.
tanium abounds in most rocks and
sands; rubidium turks in considerable
quantities in the potash minerals
worked at Stassfurth; thallium, dis
covered with difficulty by Mr.. Crookes
more than thirty years ago Dy the
vision of q green line in the spectrum,
can now be purchased at few shill-
ings an ounce; no sooner Is new ele-
ment, germanium, discovered in
Saxony, THAI it is found TO have been
mined as an ore in Bolivia; ; and it now
seems that we have all our lives been
breathing argon without knowing OF
its existence.
Let but demand arise for rare
element or mineral, such as has re-
