Birds Like to Travel.

Why do the birds fit southwark
each autumn and return again with
every spring? No one knows, but
science, in the person of Professor
Wang, the eminent Austrian orni-
thologist, has just disclosed that the
usual flippant answer to this ques-
ton, Because they like to travel, :"
is not far out of the way, after all.
In lecture that Professor Wang
recently delivered at Vienna he gave
some extremely interesting details
regarding the migrations of birds, all
Of which migrations resemble one an
other in two respects they follow
the most direct line southwark, and
are made with most incredible rapid
ity. Numerous observations have
been made at Helgoland, which is
the principal hating place of birds
of passage from northern countries,
and in Egypt, which is the winter
home of many, and these observa-
tions have established some facts
hitherto unknown. The bluebirds
traverse the 400 nautical miles
which separate Egypt from Heligo-
land in a single night, which is at
the rate of more than forty geograph-
ical miles per hour. The swallows
speed is over two and one-half miles
per minute, or nearly three times
that of the fastest railway train.
Even the younger birds, six or eight
weeks old, accompany the others In
their long journey,
Professor Wang asks himself what
is the impulse which causes the
birds, after the brooding and molt-
ing season is over, to quit our north
ern climate. He does not think it
is fear of cold-for many species
anite as delicate as those which mi
CRATE southwark easily withstand the
rigors of the winter, but that they
have an irresistible humor for travel
ing. This is his idea of the fact, but
he can give no explanation.

BLOSSOM TINE.

Nh the sweet world of the blossoms,
When the blithe winds to and fro
Rock the softy tinted cradles
Where the fruited orchards grow.
All the breezes waiting perfume
Der wide fields of drifting snow
Snow of summer and of flowers,
Not the flakes OF feathery chill
Once that filled the sleeping hollows,
Rounded out each watching hill;
Snow of summer and of flowers,
Acres of it, where you will.
Hidden deep among the petals,
Even from eyes that love her best,
Many patient little mother
Broods beneath her beating breast
Wings and songs that wait their rapture
When they hutter from the nest.
oh the white world of the blossoms,
Where the sweet winds to and fro.
Softly, softly, rock the cradles
Swinging high, and swinging low,
Grizzlies of the fruited orchards
In the blossoms tinted snow

Skin Dressing by Women.

In her tanning and skin dressing
work the savage woman's problem
was to remove the dermis from the
hide, and leave the hair adhering to
the epidermis, with only thin pro-
portion of the true skin. If the work
were creditably done the surface of
the robe, frequently more than
thirty square feet in extent, had to
be uniform in thickness throughout,
and she should not cut through the
epidermis once. The whole must be
as pliable, too, as woolen blanket;
the problem was to reduce hide of
various thickness and twice too thick
everywhere to robe of uniform
thickness throughout without once
cutting through the outer part OF
the skin. Her tools for this varied
with the locality. The Eskimo women
scrape off the fat with special tool
made of walrus. ivory or bone and
plane down the dermis with a stone
scraper. The Indian women cut off
bits of meat and fat and remove the
dermis with hoe or adze.
In the good old days of savagery the
Eskimo woman made her fat scraper
of walrus ivory or antler; her skin
scraper was of flinty stone set in q
handle Of ivory. wood, or horn,
whichever material was easiest to
procure. But later on, it may be,
the whalers helped her with steel
tools. The Indian woman had three
tools, to wit: the stone knife for cut
ting away the flesh; the hoe shaped
scraper for splitting the skin, and the
grainer, hoe or chisel like tool with
serrated edge to roughen up the in
ner side of the robe and give it hexi-
bility. Beside these, both Eskimo
and Indian had hands and feet and
teeth for pulling and pounding and
breaking the grain. They had also a
wonderful supply of pride in their
work, and love of applause, which
kept them up to the mark of doing
the best that could be done with
their resources.

lication in New York of statistics re-
lating to the profits and work OF the
roads of that city during the past
year. The various items printed
foot up to totals that are little less
than appalling. In the twelve
months ending June 30 last the va
rious street car lines Of New York
carried an aggregate of 246. 226. l97
passengers, an increase Of over A.
600, 900 over the twelve months pre-
ceding. A very considerable propor-
tion of this business was done by the
great syndicate Of lines known as
the metropolitan Traction Company,
which carried 107, 600, 600 Of passen-
gers. being considerable increase
over the preceding year. In addl-
tion to this multitude carried by the
surface roads, the elevated roads in
twelve months handled over 22l ,000.-
600 passengers. making total for
all kinds for transportation in the
city OF 467, 100000 passengers car
ried in one year. Not the least in
teresting item of these statistics re-
lates to the earnings Of the roads,
which also aggregate into almost fab
ulous sums. The gross earnings OF
all the roads in the year ending June
80 1894, were $12, 26S, ,5S3. OF this
amount 81, 354, 55S were net earnings,
making the net earnings of all the
roads very small fraction less than
35d per cent. of the gross earnings.
AN industry which was introduced
into Georgia before the Revolution
ary war, and which languished and
finally died because the times were
unfavorable, is once more gaining
O foothold there with prospect OF.
success under the better conditions
which now prevail. The culture OF
the silk worm, which was first intro
duced in Gen. Oglethorpe's early
colony, is now attracting the atten-
tion of many amateur culturists in
Georgia. and is finding it's best con-
ditions in Savannah and the country
adjacent, The people of this section
are looking about for new avenues OF
investment and employment, and
the experiments in silk culture are
the natural results of this new spirit
of enterprise. 1t is found that the
climate is especially suited. No ar
tificial heat is required to hatch the
eggs. They mature naturally on the
approach of warm weather, and the
young worms begin to eat, just as
their natural food, the leaves of the
mulberry and Usage orange, have be-
gun to grow. So it seems that ma
ture has especially adapted this cir
mate for the culture of silk. Exper-
iments which are being carried on in
Savannah are watched with interest
by many who are noting that the ex-
pense of raising the silk cocoons is
small, while the product is worth
about 35 cents pound in tho mar
ket. 1t is quite probable that the
industry under thesfavorable condi-
tions that now seem to exist will
grow to important proportions and
become part of the recognized COM
merce Of Georgia.

THE SWEET POTATO CROP.
How Fancy Sweets Are Stored and Sold
by New Jersey Growers.

How Fancy Sweets Are Stored and Sold
by New Jersey Growers.
The best form Of storehouse is one
story building with basement, with
the heater in the basement An ordinary
beating stove is used. The size depends
on the size of the house. The tighter
and better built it is the less heat it
will require to heat it. The floor should
be on level with an ordinary wagon
body. This will allow unloading and
loading without any heavy lifting. The
marketable potatoes may be stored on
the first floor and the seed and feeding
potatoes in the basement. Provision
should also be made in the basement for
a coal bin. The potato bins should all
have false bottoms raised two or three
inches from the floor and SLATED sides
set the same distance from the walls to
give free ventilation all around the po-
tatoes 1t is better to have the bins divid-
ed by partitions every three or four feet.
This will allow the taking out small
quantity without disturbing the rest,
and will also allow filing the bins clear
to the ceiling. It will do no harm to
have the potatoes piled seven or eight
feet deep if the filling is done carefully.
Potatoes should never be moved or
disturbed in any way unless they are to
be disposed Of at once, as many will rot
in few days after being moved. The
temperature should be kept at 80 or 100
degrees while the house is being filed,
and for a week or so afterward, giving
free ventilation all the time This dries
them out quickly and carries them
through t'the sweat in a short time,
making what is called kiln dried
sweet After they are through sweat
ing, and the sprouts are just beginning
to show on the tops Of the bins, the
temperature should be4owered to 55 or
so degrees and kept there. The more
even the temperature the better they
will keep. It is not necessary to have
house like the above in order to keep
sweets successfully, however. Any room
or cellar in which dry, even temper
allure can be maintained will keep
them.
Sweets sell best put up in ordinary
-four barrels, holding three bushels
each. If shipped to distant market,
they should be double headed. If the
distance is not over 100 or 200 miles,
burlap covers will do just as we'll. In
cold weather the barrels should be lined
with two or three thicknesses of old
newspapers. A small bunch Of hay or
straw placed on top will prevent the
potatoes from being bruised in transit
The foregoing is from a Vineland
IN. j.. grower Of fancy sweets to The
Rural New Yorker. This grower advises
starting few potatoes at time at reg
ular intervals, say every other day, un-
til your mark is known. Then in a
week or two you may send shipment
every day, and if your stock is good and
honestly packed you may snap your fin
gers at the fluctuations In the market.
